                                     PART I.

ITEM 1.   BUSINESS
          --------
General
- -------

     Public  Storage  Properties  XI,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  is a real  estate
investment trust ("REIT") organized as a California  corporation that was formed
to succeed to the business of Public  Storage  Properties XI, Ltd., a California
limited  partnership  (the  "Partnership"),   in  a  reorganization  transaction
completed on December 31, 1990.

     The Partnership offered 84,000 units of limited  partnership  interest (the
"Units") to the public in June 1984. The Partnership's general partners were PSI
Associates  II, Inc.  ("PSA"),  a  California  corporation,  and B. Wayne Hughes
("Hughes").  PSA  was  an  affiliate  of  Public  Storage  Management,  Inc.,  a
California corporation (see below).

     Effective  midnight  December 31, 1990, the Partnership  transferred all of
its assets and liabilities to the Company  pursuant to a plan of  Reorganization
approved  by  a  majority  of  the  limited   partners.   In  exchange  for  the
Partnership's  assets and  liabilities,  the Company issued  2,121,212 shares of
common stock Series A ("Series A shares"), 184,453 shares of common stock Series
B ("Series B shares")  and 522,618  shares of common  stock  Series C ("Series C
shares")  of the  Company  to  the  Partnership.  The  Partnership  then  made a
liquidating  distribution to the limited  partners by distributing 99 percent of
the  Series A shares  (on the basis of 25 Series A shares  for each  Unit).  The
remaining  1 percent  of the  Series A shares and all of the Series B shares and
Series C shares were  distributed  to the  general  partners in respect of their
interests in the Partnership. Subsequent thereto, the Partnership was dissolved.
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes.

     The Company is a finite life REIT, with a term until December 31, 2038 (the
same  as the  predecessor  Partnership).  However,  pursuant  to  the  Company's
by-laws, in 1997 the Company will be required to present the shareholders with a
proposal for the sale or financing of the properties and, in the case of a sale,
a liquidation of the Company,  unless the  properties  have already been sold or
financed. See "Sale or Financing" below.

     The Company's  investment  objectives  are (as were the  Partnership's)  to
maximize cash flow from operations and to maximize capital appreciation.

     The Company has acquired 15 properties,  all of which are in operation. The
Company   believes   that  its   mini-warehouses   have   attractive   operating
characteristics.

     The Company's  senior officers have been responsible for the acquisition of
more than 350 mini-warehouses,  the development of more than 650 mini-warehouses
and the  management of more than 1,000  mini-warehouses  during their average 18
years of experience with the Public Storage organization.

     In 1995,  there were a series of mergers among Public  Storage  Management,
Inc. (which was the Company's mini-warehouse operator), Public Storage, Inc. and
their affiliates  (collectively,  "PSMI"),  culminating in the November 16, 1995
merger (the "PSMI Merger") of PSMI into Storage Equities, Inc., a REIT listed on
the New York Stock  Exchange.  In the PSMI Merger,  Storage  Equities,  Inc. was
renamed  Public  Storage,  Inc.  ("PSI") and PSI acquired  substantially  all of
PSMI's  United  States real  estate  operations  and became the  operator of the
Company's  mini-warehouse  properties.  Hughes,  the Company's  Chief  Executive
Officer,  and  members  of his  family  (the  "Hughes  Family")  are  the  major
shareholders of PSI. As a result of the PSMI Merger,  PSI owns all of the shares
of the Company's common stock that was owned by PSMI or its affiliates,  and PSI
has an option to acquire all of the shares of the  Company's  common stock owned
by Hughes.

Investments in Facilities
- -------------------------

     At December 31, 1996, the Company owned 15 facilities  located in 7 states:
Arizona (3),  California (3),  Connecticut (1), Kansas (1), Nevada (2), New York
(1) and Texas (4). These facilities consist of 11 mini-warehouses,  two business
park facilities and two combination mini-warehouse/business park facilities.

                                       2
<PAGE>

     The  Company  believes  that its  operating  results  have  benefited  from
favorable   industry   trends  and  conditions.   Notably,   the  level  of  new
mini-warehouse  construction  has decreased while consumer demand has increased.
In addition,  the Company's  mini-warehouses are characterized by a low level of
capital expenditures to maintain their condition and appearance.

     MINI-WAREHOUSES

     Mini-warehouses,  which comprise the majority of the Company's  investments
(approximately  81% of the  Company's  revenues  for  the  twelve  months  ended
December 31, 1996), are designed to offer accessible  storage space for personal
and business use at a relatively  low cost. A user rents a fully  enclosed space
which is for the user's  exclusive  use and to which only the user has access on
an  unrestricted   basis  during  business  hours.   On-site  operation  is  the
responsibility  of resident  managers who are supervised by area managers.  Some
mini-warehouses  also  include  rentable  uncovered  parking  areas for  vehicle
storage.  Leases for  mini-warehouse  space may be on a long-term or  short-term
basis,  although typically spaces are rented on a month-to-month  basis.  Rental
rates vary according to the location of the property and the size of the storage
space.

     Users of space in  mini-warehouses  include both  individuals and large and
small  businesses.  Individuals  usually employ this space for storage of, among
other  things,  furniture,  household  appliances,  personal  belongings,  motor
vehicles,  boats,  campers,  motorcycles and other household  goods.  Businesses
normally employ this space for storage of excess  inventory,  business  records,
seasonal goods, equipment and fixtures.

     Mini-warehouses  in which the Company  has  invested  generally  consist of
three to seven  buildings  containing an aggregate of between 350 to 750 storage
spaces, most of which have between 25 and 400 square feet and an interior height
of approximately 8 to 12 feet.

     The Company experiences minor seasonal fluctuations in the occupancy levels
of  mini-warehouses  with  occupancies  higher in the summer  months than in the
winter months. The Company believes that these fluctuations  result in part from
increased moving activity during the summer.

     The  Company's  mini-warehouses  are  geographically  diversified  and  are
generally  located in heavily  populated  areas and close to  concentrations  of
apartment  complexes,  single family  residences  and  commercial  developments.
However,  there may be  circumstances  in which it may be  appropriate  to own a
property  in a less  populated  area,  for  example,  in an area  that is highly
visible  from a major  thoroughfare  and  close to,  although  not in, a heavily
populated area. Moreover,  in certain population centers,  land costs and zoning
restrictions may create a demand for space in nearby less populated areas.

     As with most other types of real estate,  the conversion of mini-warehouses
to  alternative  uses in  connection  with a sale or otherwise  would  generally
require substantial capital  expenditures.  However, the Company does not intend
to convert its mini-warehouses to other uses.

     COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES

     The  Company's  non-mini-warehouse   investments  are  business  parks  and
low-rise office buildings. The business parks include both industrial and office
space. Industrial space may be used for, among other things, light manufacturing
and assembly, storage and warehousing, distribution and research and development
activities.  The Company  believes  that most of the office space is occupied by
tenants who are also renting  industrial  space.  The remaining  office space is
used for general office  purposes.  A business park may also include  facilities
for commercial uses such as banks, travel agencies,  restaurants,  office supply
shops, professionals or other tenants providing services to the public.

     A business  park  property is typically  divided into units ranging in size
from 600 to 5,000  square  feet.  Parking is open or  covered,  and the ratio of
spaces to rentable square feet ranges from one to four per thousand square feet,
depending upon the use of the property and its location.  Office space generally
requires a greater parking ratio than most industrial uses.

Operating Strategies
- --------------------

     The  Company's  mini-warehouses  are  operated  by PSI  under  the  "Public
Storage" name,  which the Company  believes is the most  recognized  name in the
mini-warehouse   industry.   The  major  elements  of  the  Company's  operating
strategies are as follows:

                                       3
<PAGE>

  *  CAPITALIZE ON "PUBLIC  STORAGE'S" NAME RECOGNITION.  PSI, together with its
     predecessor,  has  more  than  20  years  of  operating  experience  in the
     mini-warehouse  business, and is the largest operator of mini-warehouses in
     the United States. PSI believes that its marketing and advertising programs
     improve its competitive position in the market. PSI's in-house Yellow Pages
     staff designs and places  advertisements  in approximately 700 directories.
     Commencing  in  early  1996,  PSI  began  to  experiment  with a  telephone
     reservation  system designed to provide added customer  service.  Customers
     calling either PSI's toll-free  telephone referral system,  (800) 44-STORE,
     or a mini-warehouse facility are directed to PSI's reservation system where
     a trained  representative  discusses with the customer space  requirements,
     price and  location  preferences  and also  informs  the  customer of other
     products  and  services  provided  by PSI.  As of December  31,  1996,  the
     telephone  reservation  system was supporting rental activity at all of the
     Company's  properties.  PSI's toll-free  telephone referral system services
     approximately 120,000 calls per month from potential customers inquiring as
     to the nearest Public Storage mini-warehouse.

  *  MAINTAIN HIGH  OCCUPANCY  LEVELS AND INCREASE  REALIZED  RENTS.  Subject to
     market conditions, the Company generally seeks to achieve average occupancy
     levels in excess of 90% and to  eliminate  promotions  prior to  increasing
     rental rates. Average occupancy for the Company's  mini-warehouses remained
     stable at 92% in 1995 and 1996.  Realized monthly rents per occupied square
     foot increased from $.70 in 1995 to $.72 in 1996. The Company has increased
     rental rates in many markets  where it has achieved high  occupancy  levels
     and eliminated or minimized promotions.

  *  SYSTEMS AND CONTROLS.  PSI has an  organizational  structure and a property
     operation system, "CHAMP" (Computerized Help and Management Program), which
     links its corporate  office with each  mini-warehouse.  This enables PSI to
     obtain  daily   information  from  each   mini-warehouse   and  to  achieve
     efficiencies in operations and maintain  control over its space  inventory,
     rental rates,  promotional discounts and delinquencies.  Expense management
     is achieved through  centralized payroll and accounts payable systems and a
     comprehensive  property  tax appeals  department,  and PSI has an extensive
     internal  audit  program   designed  to  ensure  proper  handling  of  cash
     collections.

  *  PROFESSIONAL  PROPERTY  OPERATION.  In  addition to the  approximately  150
     support  personnel  at the  Public  Storage  corporate  offices,  there are
     approximately 2,700 on-site personnel who manage the day-to-day  operations
     of  the  mini-warehouses  in  the  Public  Storage  system.  These  on-site
     personnel are supervised by 110 district managers, 15 regional managers and
     three divisional  managers (with an average of 13 years'  experience in the
     mini-warehouse  industry) who report to the president of the mini-warehouse
     property  operator (who has 12 years of experience  with the Public Storage
     organization). PSI carefully selects and extensively trains the operational
     and  support  personnel  and offers them a  progressive  career  path.  See
     "Property Operators."

Property Operators
- ------------------

     The Company's mini-warehouse properties are managed by PSI (as successor to
PSMI) pursuant to a Management Agreement. Through 1996, the Company's commercial
properties  were managed by Public Storage  Commercial  Properties  Group,  Inc.
("PSCPG") pursuant to a Management Agreement. PSI has a 95% economic interest in
PSCPG (represented by nonvoting  preferred stock) and the Hughes Family had a 5%
economic  interest in PSCPG  (represented by voting common stock) until December
1996,  when the  Hughes  Family  sold its  interest  to Ronald L.  Havner,  Jr.,
formerly  Senior Vice President and Chief  Financial  Officer of PSI, who became
the Chief  Executive  Officer of PSCPG.  PSCPG issued  additional  voting common
stock to two other unaffiliated investors. In January 1997, American Office Park
Properties,  L.P.  ("AOPPLP")  became the  manager of the  Company's  commercial
properties  pursuant  to  the  Management  Agreement.  AOPPLP  is  an  operating
partnership  formed  to own and  operate  business  parks  in  which  PSI has an
approximate 85% economic  interest.  The general partner of AOPPLP is PSCPG, now
known as American Office Park Properties, Inc.

     Under  the  supervision  of the  Company,  PSI and  AOPPLP  coordinate  the
operation  of the  facilities,  establish  rental  policies  and  rates,  direct
marketing  activity,   and  direct  the  purchase  of  equipment  and  supplies,
maintenance activity, and the selection and engagement of all vendors,  supplies
and independent contractors.

     PSI and AOPPLP  engage,  at the expense of the Company,  employees  for the
operation of the Company's  facilities,  including resident managers,  assistant
managers, relief managers, and billing and maintenance personnel. Some or all of
these employees may be employed on a part-time basis and may also be employed by
other persons, partnerships,  REITs or other entities owning facilities operated
by PSI or AOPPLP.

                                       4
<PAGE>

     In the  purchasing of services  such as  advertising  (including  broadcast
media advertising) and insurance, PSI and AOPPLP attempt to achieve economies by
combining the resources of the various facilities that they operate.  Facilities
operated by PSI and AOPPLP have historically  carried  comprehensive  insurance,
including fire, earthquake, liability and extended coverage.

     PSI has  developed  systems for space  inventory,  accounting  and handling
delinquent  accounts,  including a  computerized  network  linking PSI  operated
facilities. Each project manager is furnished with detailed operating procedures
and typically  receives  facilities  management  training from PSI. Form letters
covering a variety of circumstances are also supplied to the project managers. A
record of actions  taken by the project  managers  when  delinquencies  occur is
maintained.

     The Company's  facilities  are  typically  advertised  via signage,  yellow
pages,  flyers  and  broadcast  media  advertising  (television  and  radio)  in
geographic  areas  in  which  many  of the  Company's  facilities  are  located.
Broadcast  media  and  other  advertising  costs are  charged  to the  Company's
facilities located in geographic areas affected by the advertising. From time to
time,  PSI  or  AOPPLP  adopt  promotional  programs,  such  as  temporary  rent
reductions, in selected areas or for individual facilities.

     For as long as the respective  Management  Agreement is in effect,  PSI has
granted the  Company a  non-exclusive  license to use two PSI service  marks and
related designs (and AOPPLP has granted the Company a  non-exclusive  license to
use a PSI service  mark and related  designs),  including  the "Public  Storage"
name, in conjunction with rental and operation of facilities managed pursuant to
the  Management  Agreement.   Upon  termination  of  the  respective  Management
Agreement,  the Company  would no longer have the right to use the service marks
and related designs except as described below. Management believes that the loss
of the right to use the service marks and related  designs could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business.

     Each Management  Agreement,  as amended in February 1995, provides that (i)
the Management  Agreement will expire in February 2002 provided that in February
of  each  year  it  shall  be  automatically  extended  for  one  year  (thereby
maintaining a seven-year  term) unless either party  notifies the other that the
Management  Agreement  is not being  extended,  in which  case it expires on the
first  anniversary  of its  then  scheduled  expiration  date.  Each  Management
Agreement may also be  terminated  by either party for cause,  but if terminated
for cause by the  Company,  the  Company  retains  the rights to use the service
marks  and  related  designs  until  the  then  scheduled  expiration  date,  if
applicable, or otherwise a date seven years after such termination.

     Certain of the directors and officers of the Company are also directors and
officers of PSI.

Competition
- -----------

     Competition  in  the  market  areas  in  which  the  Company   operates  is
significant  and  affects  the  occupancy  levels,  rental  rates and  operating
expenses of certain of the Company's facilities.  Competition may be accelerated
by any increase in availability  of funds for investment in real estate.  Recent
increases in plans for  development  of  mini-warehouses  is expected to further
intensify competition among mini-warehouse operators in certain market areas. In
addition to competition  from  mini-warehouses  operated by PSI, there are three
other  national  firms and numerous  regional and local  operators.  The Company
believes  that  the  significant  operating  and  financial  experience  of  its
executive  officers and directors,  PSI,  AOPPLP and the "Public  Storage" name,
should  enable  the  Company  to  continue  to  compete  effectively  with other
entities.

Other Business Activities
- -------------------------

     A corporation owned by the Hughes Family reinsures  policies against losses
to goods  stored  by  tenants  in the  Company's  mini-warehouses.  The  Company
believes that the availability of insurance  reduces the potential  liability of
the Company to tenants for losses to their goods from theft or destruction. This
corporation  receives  the  premiums  and bears the  risks  associated  with the
insurance.

     A  corporation,  in which PSI has a 95%  economic  interest  and the Hughes
Family has a 5% economic interest,  sells locks, boxes and tape to tenants to be
used in securing  their  spaces and moving their  goods.  PSI believes  that the
availability of locks, boxes and tape for sale promotes the rental of spaces.

                                       5
<PAGE>
Sale or Financing
- -----------------

     The by-laws of the Company provide that, during 1997,  unless  shareholders
have previously  approved such a proposal,  the  shareholders  will be presented
with a proposal to approve or  disapprove  (a) the sale or  financing  of all or
substantially  all of the  properties and (b) the  distribution  of the proceeds
from  such  transaction  and,  in the  case of a sale,  the  liquidation  of the
Company.

Employees
- ---------

     As of December  31,  1996,  the Company  had 60  employees,  20 persons who
render services on behalf of the Company on a full-time basis and 40 persons who
render services on a part-time basis (5 of whom were executive officers).  These
persons include resident managers, assistant managers, relief managers, district
managers, and administrative and maintenance personnel.

Federal Income Tax
- ------------------

     The Company  intends to continue to operate in a manner so as to qualify as
a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, but no assurance can
be given that the Company  will be able to continue to qualify at all times.  By
qualifying  as a REIT,  the Company  can deduct  dividend  distributions  to its
shareholders for Federal income tax purposes,  thus effectively  eliminating the
"double  taxation"  (at the  corporate and  shareholder  levels) that  typically
applies to corporate  dividends.  The Company  believes it is in compliance with
these  requirements  and,  accordingly,  no provision  for income taxes has been
made.

     Substantially  all of the Company's  facilities  were acquired prior to the
time that it was customary to conduct environmental investigations in connection
with  property  acquisitions.  During the fourth  quarter of 1995,  the  Company
completed   environmental   assessments   of  its  properties  to  evaluate  the
environmental  condition of, and  potential  environmental  liabilities  of such
properties.  These  assessments  were performed by an independent  environmental
consulting firm. Based on the assessments, the Company expensed $106,000 in 1995
for known environmental remediation requirements.

     The  Company's  properties  are operated to maximize  cash flow through the
regular  review of and,  when  warranted by market  conditions,  adjustments  to
scheduled rents. Approximately 81% of the Company's portfolio (based on revenues
for 1996) are mini-warehouses and the balance consists of commercial properties.
As reflected in the table below,  the Company has  experienced  stable  property

(2)  Realized  rent per square foot  represents  the actual  revenue  earned per
     occupied square foot.  Management  believes this is a more relevant measure
     than the posted rental rates,  since posted rates can be discounted through
     the use of promotions. Includes administrative and late fees.
(3)  Operating margin (before reduction for depreciation expense) is computed by
     dividing rental income less cost of operations by rental income.  Operating
     margin (after reduction for  depreciation  expense) is computed by dividing
     rental income less cost of operations and depreciation by rental income.

ITEM 5.   MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------

     The  Company's  Series A shares are  registered  under Section 12(b) of the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 on the American  Stock Exchange  ("AMEX"),  and
commenced  trading  on March 27,  1991 under the  symbol  PSM.  The Series B and
Series C shares  were not  registered  under  Section 12 of the  Securities  and
Exchange Act of 1934 and no public  trading  market  exists for the Series B and
Series C shares.

     The Company's  Articles of  Incorporation  provide that the Series B shares
and  Series  C shares  will  convert  automatically  into  Series A shares  on a
share-for-share  basis (the "Conversion") when (A) the sum of (1) all cumulative
dividends  and other  distributions  from all sources  paid with  respect to the
Series A shares (including liquidating distributions, but not including payments
made to redeem  such stock  other than in  liquidation)  and (2) the  cumulative
Partnership  distributions from all sources with respect to all Units (including
the General  Partners' 1% interest)  equals (B) the product of $20 multiplied by
the  number  of the  then  outstanding  "Original  Series  A  shares".  The term
"Original   Series  A  shares"   means  the  Series  A  shares   issued  in  the
Reorganization.

     In general,  the Series A shares,  Series B shares and Series C shares have
equal voting rights.  The Company's  bylaws provide that during the period prior
to the  conversion of the Series B and Series C shares into Series A shares,  in
all  shareholder  matters voted on by the  Partnership's  general  partners (the
"General  Partners") or their  successors in interest as holders of Series B and
Series C shares,  other than the  election  and removal of  directors  and other
proposals  relating to the control of the Company and its business,  the General
Partners and any  successors  in interest have agreed to vote their Series B and
Series C shares with the holders of a majority of the  outstanding  unaffiliated
Series A shares entitled to vote.

*  No dividends were declared on the Series C shares.

     As of December 31, 1996, there were  approximately  1,062 holders of record
of the Company's Series A shares.

     Holders of Series A shares are entitled to receive  distributions  when, as
and if declared by the Board of Directors out of any funds legally available for
that purpose. The Company, as a REIT, is required to distribute, prior to filing
its tax  return,  at least  95% of its "real  estate  investment  trust  taxable
income,"  which,  as defined by the relevant tax  statutes and  regulations,  is
generally   equivalent   to  net  taxable   ordinary   income.   Under   certain
circumstances,  the  Company  can  rectify a failure  to meet this  distribution
requirement by paying dividends after the close of a particular taxable year.

     A principal policy of the Company is to make quarterly cash  distributions.
The Company  intends to make quarterly cash  distributions  out of funds legally
available, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors.

                                       10
<PAGE>

     For Federal income tax purposes,  distributions to shareholders are treated
as ordinary income,  capital gains, return of capital or a combination  thereof,
and for the past three years all distributions  have been classified as ordinary
income.

     Under generally accepted accounting principles, the amount of distributions
declared to shareholders  was less than income by $419,000,  $14,000 and $60,000
during 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

     Series A shares are entitled to participate  equally in distributions  when
declared  by the  Board  of  Directors  and in the  Company's  net  assets  upon
dissolution and liquidation  after repayment of the Company's  liabilities.  The
Series B shares (prior to  conversion  into Series A shares) are not entitled to
participate  in  distributions  attributable  to  sales  or  financings  of  the
properties or the  liquidation  of the Company,  but will  participate  in other
distributions  on the same  basis as the  Series A shares.  The  Series C shares
(prior to conversion  into Series A shares) are not entitled to  participate  in
any distributions, including liquidating distributions.

Repurchase of Company's common stock
- ------------------------------------

     If  considered  to be an  attractive  investment  opportunity  or in  other
appropriate circumstances, the Company may repurchase its Series A shares out of
legally available funds, if approved by the Board of Directors.

     As of February 27, 1997,  the Board of Directors has authorized the Company
to  repurchase  up to  400,000  Series A shares.  From  March 27,  1991  through
February 28, 1997,  the Company has  repurchased  301,275  Series A shares.  The
Company  repurchased 36,400 Series A shares during 1996 and no additional Series
A shares between January 1, 1997 and February 28, 1997.

ITEM 6.   SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA (CONTINUED)
          -----------------------------------

(1)  Funds from operations (FFO) is defined by the Company,  consistent with the
     definition  of FFO by the National  Association  of Real Estate  Investment
     Trusts  (NAREIT),  as  net  income  (loss)  (computed  in  accordance  with
     generally  accepted   accounting   principles)   before   depreciation  and
     extraordinary or non-recurring items. FFO is presented because the Company,
     as well as many  industry  analysts,  consider FFO to be one measure of the
     performance of the Company,  ie, one that generally reflects changes in the
     Company's  net  operating  income.  FFO does not  take  into  consideration
     scheduled principal payments on debt and capital improvements. Accordingly,
     FFO is not  necessarily  a substitute  for the  Company's  cash flow or net
     income as a measure of the Company's liquidity or operating  performance or
     ability to pay  distributions.  Furthermore,  the NAREIT  definition of FFO
     does not address the  treatment of certain items and all REITs do not treat
     items the same way in computing FFO. Accordingly,  comparisons of levels of
     FFO among REITs may not necessarily be meaningful.

ITEM 7.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
          ---------------------------------------------------------------

Results of Operations.
- ----------------------

     YEAR ENDED  DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995. Net
income in 1996 was $3,155,000  compared to $2,796,000 in 1995,  representing  an
increase  of $359,000 or 13%.  Net income per fully  diluted  Series A share was
$1.24 in 1996 compared to $1.09 in 1995, representing an increase of $.15 or 14%
per share.  These  increases  are  primarily  due to an increase in property net
operating income combined with the favorable impact of comparing to expenses for
1995 which included a  non-recurring  charge for  environmental  assessments and
provision for future remediation costs.

     During 1996,  property net  operating  income  (rental  income less cost of
operations,  management  fees  paid  to  affiliates  and  depreciation  expense)
increased  $253,000 from $3,089,000 in 1995 to $3,342,000 in 1996. This increase
is  primarily  attributable  to an  increase in rental  income at the  Company's
mini-warehouse and business park operations.

     Rental income for the  mini-warehouse  operations  increased $245,000 or 4%
from  $5,631,000 in 1995 to $5,876,000  in 1996.  Cost of operations  (including
management  fees paid to an affiliate of the  Company)  increased  $63,000 or 3%
from  $1,993,000 in 1995 to $2,056,000 in 1996. The results of these changes was
a net increase in property net operating income before  depreciation  expense of
$181,000 or 5% from  $3,639,000 in 1995 to  $3,820,000 in 1996.  The increase in
rental  income is primarily  due to an increase in rental rates at a majority of
the Company's mini-warehouse  properties.  The increase in cost of operations is
primarily due to increases in payroll,  repairs and  maintenance and advertising
expense.  Repairs and  maintenance  increased  due mainly to an increase in snow
removal and  landscaping  costs.  Snow removal costs increased due to the higher
than normal snow levels experienced at the Company's  mini-warehouse  properties
located in the eastern states.

     Property net operating income before  depreciation  expense with respect to
the  Company's  business  park  operations  increased  by  $117,000  or 21% from
$556,000  in 1995 to $673,000  in 1996.  This  increase is due to an increase in
rental  income at the Company's  four  business  park  facilities as a result of
increases in rental rates.  Cost of operations  remained stable in 1996 compared
to 1995.

     Weighted  average   occupancy  levels  were  92%  for  the   mini-warehouse
facilities and 97% for the business park  facilities in 1996 compared to 92% for
the mini-warehouse facilities and 95% for the business park facilities in 1995.

     In 1995, the Company  prepaid eight months of 1996  management  fees on its
mini-warehouse  operations  (based  on the  management  fees for the  comparable
period during the calendar year immediately preceding the prepayment) discounted
at the  rate of 14% per year to  compensate  for  early  payment.  In 1996,  the
Company  expensed  the  prepaid  management  fees.  The  amount is  included  in
management  fees paid to affiliates in the statements of income.  As a result of
the  prepayment,  the Company saved  approximately  $26,000 in management  fees,
based on the  management  fees that  would have been  payable  on rental  income
generated in 1996 compared to the amount prepaid.

     During 1996, the Company incurred $3,000 in interest expense on its line of
credit facility.

     YEAR ENDED  DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994. Net
income in 1995 was  $2,796,000  compared to $2,923,000 in 1994,  representing  a
decrease of $127,000 4%. Net income per fully  diluted  Series A share was $1.09
in 1995  compared  to $1.11 in 1994,  representing  a decrease of $.02 or 2% per
share.  This  decrease is primarily  due to a decrease in property net operating
income at the Company's  business  park  facilities in 1995 compared to 1994 and
environmental  costs incurred on the Company's  properties in the fourth quarter
of 1995 (see discussion below).

     During 1995,  property net  operating  income  (rental  income less cost of
operations,  management  fees  paid  to  affiliates  and  depreciation  expense)
decreased  $21,000 from  $3,110,000 in 1994 to $3,089,000 in 1995. This decrease
is primarily  attributable to an increase in operating expenses at the Company's
facilities.

     Rental income for the  mini-warehouse  operations  increased $202,000 or 4%
from  $5,429,000 in 1994 to $5,631,000  in 1995.  Cost of operations  (including
management  fees paid to an affiliate of the  Company)  increased  $89,000 or 5%
from  $1,904,000 in 1994 to $1,993,000 in 1995. The results of these changes was
a net increase in property net operating income before  depreciation  expense of
$113,000 or 3% from  $3,526,000 in 1994 to  $3,639,000 in 1995.  The increase in
rental  income is primarily  due to an increase in rental rates at a majority of
  
                                       14
<PAGE>

the Company's mini-warehouse  properties.  The increase in cost of operations is
primarily due to increases in payroll,  repairs and maintenance and property tax
expense. Repairs and maintenance increased due mainly to an increase in painting
costs.

     Property net operating income before  depreciation  expense with respect to
the Company's business park operations decreased by $75,000 or 12% from $631,000
in 1994 to $556,000 in 1995.  This  decrease is primarily  due to an increase in
cost of  operations.  The  increase  in  cost of  operations  is  mainly  due to
increases in payroll,  repairs and  maintenance  and  property tax expense.  The
increase  in  repairs  and  maintenance  is  primarily  due to  $14,000  (net of
insurance  reimbursement)  in fire  damage  incurred at the  Company's  Phoenix,
Arizona  business park facility  during the second quarter of 1995. The increase
in property  taxes is due to the  receipt of a property  tax refund in 1994 on a
property  tax  appeal on behalf of the San  Francisco  facility.  Rental  income
remained stable in 1995 compared to 1994.

     Substantially  all of the Company's  facilities  were acquired prior to the
time that it was customary to conduct environmental investigations in connection
with  property  acquisitions.  During the fourth  quarter of 1995,  the  Company
completed   environmental   assessments   of  its  properties  to  evaluate  the
environmental  condition of, and  potential  environmental  liabilities  of such
properties.  These  assessments  were performed by an independent  environmental
consulting firm. Based on the assessments, the Company expensed $106,000 in 1995
for  known  environmental  remediation  requirements.  Although  there can be no
assurance, the Company is not aware of any environmental contamination of any of
its property sites which  individually  or in the aggregate would be material to
the Company's overall business, financial condition, or results of operations.

     Weighted  average   occupancy  levels  were  92%  for  the   mini-warehouse
facilities and 95% for the business park  facilities in 1995 compared to 93% for
the mini-warehouse facilities and 95% for the business park facilities in 1994.

     The following table  illustrates the operating  trends for the Company's 13
mini-warehouses:

                                                                      ----------------------------------------

                                                                      ------             ------         ------

Realized monthly rent per occupied square foot (1)                     $.72               $.70            $.67

</TABLE>
- --------
(1)  Realized  rent per square foot  represents  the actual  revenue  earned per
     occupied square foot.  Management  believes this is a more relevant measure
     than the posted rental rates,  since posted rates can be discounted through
     the use of promotions. Includes administrative and late fees.
(2)  Operating margin (before reduction for depreciation expense) is computed by
     dividing rental income less cost of operations by rental income.  Operating
     margin (after reduction for  depreciation  expense) is computed by dividing
     rental income less cost of operations and depreciation by rental income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
- --------------------------------

     CAPITAL STRUCTURE.  The Company's  financial profile has been characterized
by increasing  cash provided by operating  activities and increasing  funds from
operations ("FFO").

     NET CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING  ACTIVITIES AND FUNDS FROM  OPERATIONS.  The
Company believes that important measures of its performance as well as liquidity
are net cash provided by operating activities and FFO.

     Net cash provided by operating  activities  (net income plus  depreciation)
reflects the cash generated from the Company's business before  distributions to
shareholders and capital expenditures. Net cash provided by operating activities
has increased over the past years from $3,899,000 in 1994 to $4,485,000 in 1996.
                                       15

<PAGE>

     FFO is defined by the Company, consistent with the definition of FFO by the
National  Association of Real Estate Investment  Trusts (NAREIT),  as net income
(loss) (computed in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting  principles)
before depreciation and extraordinary or non-recurring  items. FFO for the years
ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $4,305,000  and  $4,007,000,  respectively.
FFO is  presented  because  the  Company,  as well as  many  industry  analysts,
consider FFO to be one measure of the performance of the Company, i.e., one that
generally  reflects changes in the Company's net operating income.  FFO does not
take  into  consideration  scheduled  principal  payments  on debt  and  capital
improvements. Accordingly, FFO is not necessarily a substitute for the Company's
cash flow or net income,  as a measure of the  Company's  liquidity or operating
performance or ability to pay distributions.  Furthermore, the NAREIT definition
of FFO does not  address  the  treatment  of certain  items and all REITs do not
treat items the same way in computing FFO. Accordingly, comparisons of levels of
FFO among REITs may not necessarily be meaningful.

     The Company has an  unsecured  revolving  credit  facility  with a bank for
borrowings up to $3,000,000 for working  capital  purposes and to repurchase the
Company's stock. Outstanding borrowings on the credit facility, at the Company's
option,  bear  interest  at either the bank's  prime rate plus .25% or the LIBOR
rate plus 2.25%.  Interest is payable monthly.  On December 31, 1999, all unpaid
principal and accrued  interest is due and payable.  During the first quarter of
1996, the Company  borrowed and repaid $250,000 on its line of credit  facility.
At December 31, 1996, there was no outstanding balance on the credit facility.

     The  following  table  summarizes  the  Company's  ability to make  capital
improvements  to maintain  its  facilities  through the use of cash  provided by
operating activities. The remaining cash flow is available to the Company to pay
distributions to shareholders and repurchase its stock.

</TABLE>

     The Company believes that its rental revenues and interest and other income
will be  sufficient  over at least the next twelve  months to meet the Company's
operating expenses, capital improvements and distributions to shareholders.  For
1997,  the Company  anticipates  expending  approximately  $507,000  for capital
improvements.  During 1995, the Company's  property operator commenced a program
to enhance the visual appearance of the  mini-warehouse  facilities  operated by
it.  Such  enhancements   include  new  signs,   exterior  color  schemes,   and
improvements  to the rental offices.  The vast majority of the costs  associated
with these enhancements were incurred in 1995 and 1996.

     During the second  quarter of 1995, the Company  borrowed  $145,000 from an
affiliate for working  capital  purposes.  The advance,  which was repaid in May
1995, bore interest at the prime rate plus .25%.  Interest expense of $1,000 was
charged to income in 1995 with respect to this advance.

     The Company believes its geographically diverse portfolio has resulted in a
relatively stable and predictable investment portfolio.

     On November 12, 1996, the Company's  Board of Directors  declared a regular
quarterly  distribution  per  share of $0.34  payable  on  January  15,  1997 to
shareholders of record on December 31, 1996.

     In August 1995, the Management Agreement for the mini-warehouse  facilities
was amended to provide  that upon  demand  from PSI made prior to  December  15,
1995,  the Company  agreed to prepay (within 15 days after such demand) up to 12
months of  management  fees  (based on the  management  fees for the  comparable
period  during  the  calendar  year   immediately   preceding  such  prepayment)
discounted  at the rate of 14% per year to  compensate  for  early  payment.  In
November 1995, the Company prepaid,  to PSI, 8 months of 1996 management fees at
a cost of  $205,000.  The amount has been  expensed as  management  fees paid to
affiliate during 1996.

DISTRIBUTIONS
- -------------

     The  Company  has  established  a  conservative  distribution  policy.  The
aggregate  amount of dividends paid or accrued to the  shareholders in each year
since inception of the Company were as follows:

                       Series A             Series B               Total

                    =============         =============       ============

     The  Convertible  Series  B shares  and  Convertible  Series C shares  will
convert  automatically  into  Series A shares on a  share-for-share  basis  (the
"Conversion")  when  (A) the  sum of (1)  all  cumulative  dividends  and  other
distributions  from  all  sources  paid  with  respect  to the  Series  A shares
(including liquidating distributions,  but not including payments made to redeem
such  stock  other  than in  liquidation)  and (2)  the  cumulative  Partnership
distributions  from all sources with respect to all units equals (B) the product
of $20  multiplied  by the  number of the then  outstanding  "Original  Series A
shares". The term "Original Series A shares" means the Series A shares issued in
the Reorganization. Through December 31, 1996, the Company has made and declared
cumulative cash  distributions of approximately  $29,141,000 with respect to the
Series A shares. Accordingly, assuming no repurchases or redemptions of Series A
shares  after  December  31,  1996,  Conversion  will occur when  $7,258,000  in
additional distributions with respect to the Series A shares have been made.

REIT DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENT
- -----------------------------

     The  Company  has  elected  and  intends to continue to qualify as REIT for
Federal  income tax  purposes.  As a REIT,  the Company  must meet,  among other
tests, sources of income,  share ownership,  and certain asset tests. As a REIT,
the  Company  is not  taxed  on that  portion  of its  taxable  income  which is
distributed to its shareholders provided that at least 95% of its taxable income
is so distributed to its shareholders  prior to filing the Company's tax return.
Under certain  circumstances,  the Company can rectify a failure to meet the 95%
distribution  test by  making  distributions  after  the  close of a  particular
taxable year and  attributing  those  distributions  to the prior year's taxable
income. The Company has satisfied the REIT distribution  requirement for 1996 by
attributing distributions in 1997 to the prior year's taxable income. The extent
to which the Company  will be required to attribute  distributions  to the prior
year will depend on the Company's  operating  results  (taxable  income) and the
level of  distributions  as determined  by the Board of  Directors.  The primary
difference  between book income and taxable income is depreciation  expense.  In
1996, the Company's Federal tax depreciation was $1,229,000.

     The Company's  Board of Directors has authorized the Company to purchase up
to 400,000 shares of Series A common stock. As of December 31, 1996, the Company
had purchased and retired 301,275 shares of Series A common stock.

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Public Storage Properties XI, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Public Storage Properties XI,
Inc. as of December  31, 1996 and 1995,  and the related  statements  of income,
shareholders'  equity and cash  flows for each of the three  years in the period
ended  December 31, 1996.  Our audits also  included the schedule  listed in the
index  at  item  14(a).   These  financial   statements  and  schedule  are  the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material  respects,  the financial position of Public Storage Properties XI,
Inc. at December 31, 1996 and 1995,  and the results of its  operations  and its
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.  Also, in our opinion,
the related  financial  statement  schedule,  when considered in relation to the
basic  financial  statements  taken as a whole,  presents fairly in all material
respects the information set forth therein.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                December 31, 1996

1.       DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

              Public Storage Properties XI, Inc. (the "Company") is a California
         corporation  which has elected to qualify as a real  estate  investment
         trust ("REIT") for Federal income tax purposes.  The Company  succeeded
         to  the  business  of  Public   Storage   Properties   XI,  Ltd.   (the
         "Partnership")  in a  reorganization  transaction  which was  effective
         December 31, 1990 (the "Reorganization").

              The Company owns and operates  primarily  self-storage  facilities
         and, to a lesser extent, business park facilities containing commercial
         or industrial spaces.

                  The term of the Company is until all properties have been sold
         and, in any event,  not later than December 31, 2038. The bylaws of the
         Company provide that, during 1997, unless  shareholders have previously
         approved such a proposal,  the  shareholders  will be presented  with a
         proposal to approve or  disapprove  (a) the sale or financing of all or
         substantially  all of the  properties and (b) the  distribution  of the
         proceeds  from  such  transaction  and,  in the  case  of a  sale,  the
         liquidation of the Company.

2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Basis of Presentation:

              Certain  prior year  amounts  have been  reclassified  in order to
         conform with the 1996 presentation.

         Income Taxes:

              The Company  has and intends to continue to qualify as a REIT,  as
         defined in Section 856 of the Internal  Revenue  Code (the Code).  As a
         REIT,  the Company is not taxed on that  portion of its taxable  income
         which is  distributed  to its  shareholders  provided  that the Company
         meets the  requirements  of the Code.  The  Company  believes  it is in
         compliance with these requirements and,  accordingly,  no provision for
         income taxes has been made.

         Statements of Cash Flows:

              For  purposes of  financial  statement  presentation,  the Company
         considers all highly liquid debt instruments  purchased with a maturity
         of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

         Real Estate Facilities:

              Cost  of  land  includes  appraisal  and  legal  fees  related  to
         acquisition  and  closing  costs.  Buildings,   land  improvements  and
         equipment  reflect costs incurred through December 31, 1996 and 1995 to
         develop  primarily  mini-warehouse  facilities  and to a lesser extent,
         business  park  facilities.   The  mini-warehouse   facilities  provide
         self-service  storage  spaces  for lease,  usually on a  month-to-month
         basis,  to  the  general  public.   The  buildings  and  equipment  are
         depreciated on the  straight-line  basis over estimated useful lives of
         25 and 5 years, respectively.  Included in depreciation is depreciation
         of tenant  improvements  on the Company's  business park  facilities of
         $47,000, $50,000 and $19,000 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

         Real Estate Facilities (continued):

              In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
         of  Financial   Accounting   Standards  No.  121   ("Statement   121"),
         "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for Long-Lived
         Assets to be Disposed of." Statement 121 requires  impairment losses to
         be recorded on long-lived  assets used in operations when indicators of
         impairment are present and the undiscounted  cash flows estimated to be
         generated  by those assets are less than the assets'  carrying  amount.
         Statement 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived  assets that
         are expected to be disposed of. The Company  adopted  Statement  121 in
         1996 and based on current circumstances, such adoption did not have any
         effect on the financial statements.

              At  December  31,  1996,  the  basis  of  real  estate  facilities
         (excluding land) for Federal income tax purposes (after  adjustment for
         accumulated depreciation of $15,586,000) is $9,794,000.

         Revenue Recognition:

              Property rents are recognized as earned.

         Net Income Per Share:

              Net income per share is based on net income  attributable  to each
         series of common shares and the weighted  average number of such shares
         outstanding during the periods presented.

              Net income per share is presented  on a primary and fully  diluted
         basis. Primary earnings per share represents the Series A shareholders'
         rights to  distributions  out of the  respective  period's  net income,
         which  is  calculated  by  dividing  net  income  after  reduction  for
         distributions  to the  Convertible  Series  B  shareholders  (Series  C
         shareholders  are not entitled to cash  distributions)  by the weighted
         average number of  outstanding  Series A shares (Note 4). Fully diluted
         earnings per share assumes  conversion of the Convertible  Series B and
         Series C shares into Series A shares.

         Use of Estimates:

              The  preparation  of the financial  statements in conformity  with
         generally accepted  accounting  principles  requires management to make
         estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect the  amounts  reported in the
         financial  statements  and  accompanying  notes.  Actual  results could
         differ from those estimates.

         Environmental Cost:

              Substantially all of the Company's  facilities were acquired prior
         to  the  time  that  it  was   customary   to   conduct   environmental
         investigations  in connection  with property  acquisitions.  During the
         fourth quarter of 1995, the Company completed environmental assessments
         of its  properties  to evaluate  the  environmental  condition  of, and
         potential   environmental   liabilities  of  such   properties.   These
         assessments were performed by an independent  environmental  consulting
         firm. Based on the assessments,  the Company expensed  $106,000 in 1995
         for known environmental remediation requirements. Although there can be
         no   assurance,   the  Company  is  not  aware  of  any   environmental
         contamination of any of its property sites which individually or in the
         aggregate  would  be  material  to  the  Company's   overall  business,
         financial condition, or results of operations.

3.       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

              The Company has a Management  Agreement with Public Storage,  Inc.
         ("PSI")  pursuant to which PSI  operates the  Company's  mini-warehouse
         facilities  for a fee  equal  to 6% of the  facilities'  monthly  gross
         revenue (as defined). Through 1996, the Company's commercial properties
         were  operated by Public  Storage  Commercial  Properties  Group,  Inc.
         ("PSCPG")  pursuant to a Management  Agreement which provides for a fee
         equal to 5% of the facilities' monthly gross revenue (as defined).


                                      F-7

3.       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)

              PSI has a 95% economic interest in PSCPG (represented by nonvoting
         preferred  stock) and B. Wayne Hughes,  the Company's  Chief  Executive
         Officer,  and  members of his family  (the  "Hughes  Family")  had a 5%
         economic  interest in PSCPG  (represented by voting common stock) until
         December  1996 when the Hughes  Family  sold its  interest to Ronald L.
         Havner, Jr., formerly Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
         of PSI, who became the Chief Executive  Officer of PSCPG.  PSCPG issued
         additional voting common stock to two other unaffiliated investors.

              In January 1997, American Office Park Properties,  L.P. ("AOPPLP")
         became the operator of the Company's commercial  properties pursuant to
         the Management Agreement.  AOPPLP is an operating partnership formed to
         own and  operate  business  parks in which PSI has an  approximate  85%
         economic interest. The general partner of AOPPLP is PSCPG, now known as
         American Office Park Properties, Inc.

              Each Management  Agreement,  as amended in February 1995, provides
         that the  agreement  will  expire in  February  2002  provided  that in
         February of each year it shall be  automatically  extended for one year
         (thereby  maintaining a seven-year  term) unless either party  notifies
         the other that the Management Agreement is not being extended, in which
         case  it  expires,  on the  first  anniversary  of its  then  scheduled
         expiration  date. Each  Management  Agreement may also be terminated by
         either party for cause, but if terminated for cause by the Company, the
         Company retains the rights to use the service marks and related designs
         until the then scheduled expiration date, if applicable, or otherwise a
         date seven years after such termination.

              In August 1995,  the Management  Agreement for the  mini-warehouse
         facilities  was amended to provide that upon demand from PSI made prior
         to December  15,  1995,  the Company  agreed to prepay  (within 15 days
         after such  demand) up to 12 months of  management  fees  (based on the
         management  fees for the  comparable  period  during the calendar  year
         immediately  preceding such  prepayment)  discounted at the rate of 14%
         per year to compensate for early payment. In November 1995, the Company
         prepaid,  to  PSI,  8  months  of  1996  management  fees  at a cost of
         $205,000.  The  amount has been  expensed  as  management  fees paid to
         affiliate during 1996.

              During the second quarter of 1995, the Company  borrowed  $145,000
         from an affiliate for working capital purposes.  The advance, which was
         repaid in May 1995, bore interest at the prime rate plus .25%. Interest
         expense  of $1,000 was  charged to income in 1995 with  respect to this
         advance.

4.       SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

              Series A shares are  entitled  to all  distributions  of cash from
         sale or refinancing and participate ratably with the Convertible Series
         B shares in distributions of cash flow from operations. The Convertible
         Series C shares  (prior to  conversion  into Series A shares)  will not
         participate in any distributions.

              The Convertible  Series B shares and  Convertible  Series C shares
         will convert  automatically  into Series A shares on a  share-for-share
         basis  (the  "Conversion")  when  (A)  the  sum of (1)  all  cumulative
         dividends and other distributions from all sources paid with respect to
         the  Series  A shares  (including  liquidating  distributions,  but not
         including payments made to redeem such stock other than in liquidation)
         and (2) the cumulative Partnership  distributions from all sources with
         respect to all units  equals (B) the product of $20  multiplied  by the
         number of the then  outstanding  "Original  Series A shares".  The term
         "Original  Series A  shares"  means the  Series A shares  issued in the
         Reorganization.  Through  December 31,  1996,  the Company has made and
         declared  cumulative cash  distributions of  approximately  $29,141,000
         with  respect  to  the  Series  A  shares.  Accordingly,   assuming  no
         repurchases  or redemptions of Series A shares after December 31, 1996,
         Conversion will occur when $7,258,000 in additional  distributions with
         respect to the Series A shares have been made.

4.       SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED)

              Assuming  liquidation  of the  Company  at its net  book  value at
         December 31, 1996 and 1995,  each Series of common shares would receive
         the following as a liquidating distribution:


                                               1996               1995
                                         ---------------    ---------------
        Series A                           $21,449,000        $22,567,000
        Convertible Series B                 1,348,000          1,126,000
        Convertible Series C                 3,820,000          3,190,000
                                         ---------------    ---------------
        Total                              $26,617,000        $26,883,000
                                         ===============    ===============

              The Series B and Series C shareholders  have agreed that 47,824 of
         the Series A shares received upon conversion of the Convertible  Series
         B and Convertible Series C shares will not be entitled to distributions
         attributable to sale or financing  proceeds.  This agreement,  which is
         binding on  transferees  of such Series A shares,  is  reflected in the
         liquidation  values applicable to the Series A and Convertible Series B
         and C shares.

              The Series A shares,  Convertible  Series B shares and Convertible
         Series  C  shares  have  equal  voting  rights.   The  holders  of  the
         Convertible  Series B and  Convertible  Series C shares  have agreed to
         vote along with the majority of the unaffiliated  Series A shareholders
         on matters other than control of the Company and its business.

              The  Company's  Board of Directors has  authorized  the Company to
         purchase up to 400,000  shares of the Company's  Series A common stock.
         As of December 31, 1996, the Company had purchased and retired  301,275
         shares  of Series A common  stock,  of which  36,400  and  32,200  were
         purchased and retired in 1996 and 1995, respectively.

              For Federal income tax purposes, all distributions declared by the
         Board of Directors in 1996, 1995 and 1994 were ordinary income.

5.       NOTE PAYABLE TO BANK

              The Company has an unsecured revolving credit facility with a bank
         for  borrowings up to $3,000,000  for working  capital  purposes and to
         repurchase the Company's  stock.  Outstanding  borrowings on the credit
         facility,  at the Company's option,  bear interest at either the bank's
         prime rate plus .25% or the LIBOR rate plus 2.25%.  Interest is payable
         monthly.  On  December  31,  1999,  all unpaid  principal  and  accrued
         interest is due and payable.

              During the first quarter of 1996, the Company  borrowed and repaid
         $250,000 on its line of credit  facility.  At December 31, 1996,  there
         was no outstanding balance on the credit facility.

              Under  covenants  of  the  credit  facility,  the  Company  is (1)
         required to maintain a ratio of  liabilities to assets (as defined) for
         each  fiscal  quarter  of not  more  than .3 to 1.0,  (2)  required  to
         maintain a debt coverage  ratio (as defined) for each fiscal quarter of
         not less than 8 times the debt  service,  (3)  required  to  maintain a
         fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined) for each fiscal quarter of not
         less  than  1.0  to  1.0  and  (4)   required  to  maintain  a  minimum
         shareholder's  equity  (as  defined)  for each  fiscal  quarter  of $20
         million.
