ITEM 5.                       OTHER EVENTS
Regency Realty Corporation,  through its wholly owned subsidiaries (together the
"Company")  acquired five shopping centers (the "1998 Acquisition  Properties"),
in addition  to the Midland  Properties  described  below,  during the months of
January  through June 1998.  The  individual or the aggregate  purchase price of
these  acquisitions,  as provided below, did not individually  exceed 10% of the
Company's total assets. The acquisitions were made pursuant to separate purchase
agreements,  the  sellers  of which are  unrelated  to the  Company.  All of the
properties  currently operate as neighborhood retail shopping centers,  and will
continue as such. The purchase price of each shopping center was funded from the
Company's  revolving  line of credit with Wells Fargo Realty  Advisors  Funding,
Inc.

The factors  considered by the Company in  determining  the price to be paid for
the shopping centers included  historical and expected cash flow,  nature of the
tenancies and terms of the leases in place,  occupancy rates,  opportunities for
alternative and new tenancies,  current operating costs,  physical condition and
location,  and the anticipated impact on the Company's  financial  results.  The
Company took into consideration  capitalization rates at which it believes other
shopping  centers have recently  sold,  but determined the purchase price on the
factors  discussed above. No separate  independent  appraisals were obtained for
the properties acquired.

The following summarizes the 1998 Acquisition Properties:

In January  1998,  the Company  entered into an  agreement  to acquire  shopping
centers from various  entities  comprising  the Midland  Group  consisting of 21
shopping  centers  plus 11  shopping  centers  under  development.  The  Company
acquired 13 of the Midland  shopping  centers  during March 1998  containing 1.3
million square feet for approximately $111.0 million. Those shopping centers are
included in the Company's March 31, 1998 balance sheet.  Subsequent to March 31,
1998, the Company has acquired or will acquire six additional  shopping  centers
for $56.1  million  and  during  July and  August  1998,  expects  to acquire an
additional three properties  under  development for $41.3 million.  In addition,
during 1998, the Company expects to pay $4.6 million in additional costs related
to joint venture  investments and other  transaction  costs related to acquiring
the various shopping  centers from Midland,  and during 1999 and 2000 expects to
pay contingent consideration of $23.0 million.

The Company previously filed Form 8-K dated January 12, 1998 that summarized the
transaction  and  provided  1996  audited  financial  statements  of the Midland
Properties.  The  enclosed  pro forma  financial  statements  for the year ended
December 31, 1997 include the Midland shopping centers and their related audited
financial statements for the year then ended.

In June 1998, the Company,  through an operating  partnership in which it is the
general  partner,  sold $80  million of 8.125%  Series A  Cumulative  Redeemable
Preferred  Units  to an  institutional  investor  in a  private  placement.  The
enclosed  pro forma  financial  statements  include  the net  proceeds  from the
offering.

In December  1997,  the Company  sold one office  building  for $2.6 million and
recognized a gain on the sale of $451,000. During the first quarter of 1998, the
Company sold three office buildings and a parcel of land for $26.7 million,  and
recognized a gain on the sale of $9.3 million.  The enclosed pro forma financial
statements  include  adjustments  to reflect the  reversal of the  revenues  and
expenses from the office buildings generated during 1997 and 1998, including the
gains on the sale of the office  buildings as if the sales had been completed on
January 1, 1997.

Those standards  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance  about whether the statement of revenues and certain  expenses is free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and  disclosures in the statement of revenues and certain
expenses.  An audit also includes  assessing the accounting  principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses.  We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The  accompanying  statement of revenues and certain  expenses of Delk  Spectrum
Shopping  Center was prepared  for the purpose of  complying  with the rules and
regulations  of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission and for inclusion in a
Form 8-K of Regency Realty Corporation and excludes material amounts,  described
in note 1, that would not be  comparable  to those  resulting  from the proposed

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expenses referred to above
presents fairly,  in all material  respects,  the revenues and certain expenses,

                     Notes to Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses

                      For the year ended December 31, 1997




1.    Basis of Presentation

      The statement of revenues and certain expenses relates to the operation of
      a  100,880  square  foot  shopping  center  (the  "Property")  located  in
      Marietta, Georgia.

      The  Property's  financial  statement is prepared on the accrual  basis of
      accounting in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

      Subsequent  to December  31,  1997,  the  Property was acquired by Regency
      Realty Corporation (RRC) in a transaction accounted for as a purchase. All
      operations of the Property will be included in the consolidated  financial
      statements of RRC beginning at the acquisition date.

      The accompanying  financial  statement is not representative of the actual
      operations for the period presented as certain expenses,  which may not be
      comparable to the expenses  expected to be incurred by RRC in the proposed
      future operation of the Property,  have been excluded. RRC is not aware of
      any  material  factors  relating  to the  Property  that  would  cause the
      reported financial information not to be necessarily  indicative of future
      operating  results.  Costs not  directly  related to the  operation of the
      Property  have been  excluded,  and  consist  of  interest,  depreciation,
      professional fees, and certain other non operating expenses.


2.    Related Party Transaction

      During  the year,  management  fees of  $33,966  were  paid to a  property
      manager  which is a related  entity of the  Property.  The  Property  pays
      management fees of 2.5% of total income reported on the cash basis.


3.    Estimates

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

4.    Operating Leases

      For the year ended December 31, 1997,  the following  tenants paid minimum
      rent which exceeded 10% of the total minimum rent earned by the Property:


                                                                    Minimum
                              Tenant                               Rent Paid

                  A&P Food Stores                                $   431,952
                  Blockbuster Video                                  149,316
                  Outback Steakhouse, of Georgia - I, L.P.           136,032


      The Property is leased to tenants under  operating  leases with expiration
      dates extending to the year 2016. Future minimum rent under  noncancelable
      operating leases as of December 31, 1997, excluding tenant  reimbursements
      of operating expenses and excluding additional contingent rentals based on
      tenants' sales volume, are as follows:


                      Year ending December 31,           Amount

                               1998                  $  1,322,718
                               1999                     1,280,486

                               2001                     1,112,330

                     Notes to Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses

                      For the year ended December 31, 1997




1.    Basis of Presentation

      The statement of revenues and certain expenses relates to the operation of
      a 267,935 square foot shopping center (the "Property") located in Brandon,
      Florida.

      The  Property's  financial  statement is prepared on the accrual  basis of
      accounting in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

      Subsequent  to December  31,  1997,  the  Property was acquired by Regency
      Realty Corporation (RRC) in a transaction accounted for as a purchase. All
      operations of the Property will be included in the consolidated  financial
      statements of RRC beginning at the acquisition date.

      The accompanying  financial  statement is not representative of the actual
      operations for the period presented as certain expenses,  which may not be
      comparable to the expenses  expected to be incurred by RRC in the proposed
      future operation of the Property,  have been excluded. RRC is not aware of
      any  material  factors  relating  to the  Property  that  would  cause the
      reported financial information not to be necessarily  indicative of future
      operating  results.  Costs not  directly  related to the  operation of the
      Property  have been  excluded,  and  consist  of  interest,  depreciation,
      professional fees, and certain other non operating expenses.


2.    Estimates

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

      For the year ended December 31, 1997,  the following  tenants paid minimum
      rent which exceeded 10% of the total minimum rent earned by the Property:

                                 Tenant                        Rent Paid

                      Beall's Department Stores                 185,250


      The Property is leased to tenants under  operating  leases with expiration
      dates extending to the year 2006. Future minimum rent under  noncancelable
      operating leases as of December 31, 1997, excluding tenant  reimbursements
      of operating expenses and excluding additional contingent rentals based on
      tenants' sales volume, are as follows:


                      Year ending December 31,         Amount

statement is the responsibility of management.  Our responsibility is to express

Those standards  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance  about whether the statement of revenues and certain  expenses is free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and  disclosures in the statement of revenues and certain
expenses.  An audit also includes  assessing the accounting  principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses.  We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The  accompanying  statement  of revenues  and  certain  expenses of the Midland
Properties  was  prepared  for the  purpose  of  complying  with the  rules  and
regulations  of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission and for inclusion in a
Form 8-K of Regency Realty Corporation and excludes material amounts,  described
in note 1, that would not be  comparable  to those  resulting  from the proposed
future  operation of the  properties.  The  presentation is not intended to be a
complete presentation of the Midland Properties revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expenses referred to above
presents fairly,  in all material  respects,  the revenues and certain expenses,

               Notes to Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses

                      For the year ended December 31, 1997




1.     Basis of Presentation

       The statement of revenues and certain  expenses  relates to the operation
       of a 226,682  square foot  shopping  center (the  "Property")  located in
       Jacksonville, Florida.

       The  Property's  financial  statement is prepared on the accrual basis of
       accounting in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

       Subsequent  to December  31,  1997,  the Property was acquired by Regency
       Realty  Corporation  (RRC) in a transaction  accounted for as a purchase.
       All  operations  of the  Property  will be included  in the  consolidated
       financial statements of RRC beginning at the acquisition date.

       The accompanying  financial statement is not representative of the actual
       operations for the period presented as certain expenses, which may not be
       comparable to the expenses expected to be incurred by RRC in the proposed
       future operation of the Property, have been excluded. RRC is not aware of
       any  material  factors  relating  to the  Property  that would  cause the
       reported financial information not to be necessarily indicative of future
       operating  results.  Costs not directly  related to the  operation of the
       Property  have been  excluded,  and  consist of  interest,  depreciation,
       professional fees, and certain other non operating expenses.


2.     Estimates

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

                          Independent Auditors' Report


The Board of Directors
Regency Realty Corporation:

We have audited the  accompanying  statement of revenues and certain expenses of
Silverlake  Shopping Center for the year ended December 31, 1997. This financial
statement is the responsibility of management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on this  statement  of  revenues  and certain  expenses  based on our
audit.

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

The  accompanying  statement  of  revenues  and certain  expenses of  Silverlake
Shopping  Center was prepared  for the purpose of  complying  with the rules and
regulations  of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission and for inclusion in a
Form 8-K of Regency Realty Corporation and excludes material amounts,  described
in note 1, that would not be  comparable  to those  resulting  from the proposed
future  operation  of the  property.  The  presentation  is not intended to be a
complete presentation of Silverlake Shopping Center revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expenses referred to above
presents fairly,  in all material  respects,  the revenues and certain expenses,
described in note 1, of Silverlake  Shopping  Center for the year ended December
31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

 Properties and the 1998  Acquisition  Properties as of that date. The following

 based  upon  the  historical  consolidated  statements  of  operations  for the
 three-month  period ended March 31, 1998 and the year ended  December 31, 1997.
 These  statements  are  presented  as if the  Company  had  acquired  the  1998
 Acquisition  Properties and 13 other properties  acquired during 1997 (together
 the "Acquisition Properties"), as well as the Branch Properties and the Midland
 Properties  as  of  January  1,  1997.  These  unaudited  pro  forma  condensed

 it purport to represent the financial  position or results of operations of the

(a)  Acquisitions of Shopping Centers:

     In January 1998, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire  shopping
     centers from various entities comprising the Midland Group consisting of 21
     shopping  centers plus 11 shopping centers under  development.  The Company
     acquired 13 of the Midland  shopping  centers during March 1998  containing
     1.3 million square feet for  approximately  $111.0 million.  Those shopping
     centers  are  included  in the  Company's  March 31,  1998  balance  sheet.
     Subsequent to March 31, 1998,  the Company has acquired or will acquire six
     additional  shopping  centers for $56.1  million and during July and August
     1998,  expects to acquire an additional three properties under  development
     for $41.3 million.  In addition,  during 1998,  the Company  expects to pay
     $4.6 million in additional  costs related to joint venture  investments and
     other  transaction  costs related to acquiring the various shopping centers
     from  Midland,   and  during  1999  and  2000  expects  to  pay  contingent
     consideration  of  $23.0  million.  The  following  table  sets  forth  the
     aggregate  purchase price for East Point,  Maxtown,  Worthington,  Franklin
     Square, St. Ann Square and Windmiller,  which have been or will be acquired
     subsequent to March 31, 1998.

(g)  Depreciation  expense  is  based  on  the  estimated  useful  life  of  the
     properties  acquired.  For  properties  under  construction,   depreciation
     expense  is  calculated  from the date the  property  is placed in  service
     through the end of the period.  In  addition,  the three month period ended
     March 31,  1998 and year  ended  December  31,  1997  calculations  reflect
     depreciation  expense on the properties from January 1, 1997 to the earlier
     of the respective acquisition date of the property or March 31, 1998.

to Buyer in all respects.

(10) days of such damage or taking,  notify  Buyer  thereof and Buyer shall have
the option to:

                  (a)  terminate  this  Agreement  upon  notice to Seller  given
within ten (10) business days after such notice from Seller, in which case Buyer
shall receive a return of its Earnest Money Deposit; or

                  (b) proceed with the purchase of the Property,  in which event

amounts  due  or  collected  by  Seller  under  the  insurance  policies  or  as

amount of any  insurance  deductible  to the  extent it  reduced  the  insurance
proceeds payable.

                                                 7.  TITLE MATTERS

of the Title  Commitment  (including  legible copies of all recorded  exceptions
noted  therein)  and Survey to notify  Seller in  writing of any Title  Defects,
encroachments  or other matters not  acceptable to Buyer which are not permitted
by this Agreement.  Any Title Defect or other  objection  disclosed by the Title

Survey  which is not timely  specified  in Buyer's  written  notice to Seller of
Title Defects shall be deemed a Permitted  Exception.  Seller shall notify Buyer
in writing  within five (5) days of Buyer's notice if Seller intends to cure any
Title  Defect or other  objection.  If Seller  elects to cure,  Seller shall use
diligent efforts to cure the Title Defects and/or objections by the Closing Date
(as it may be  extended).  If Seller elects not to cure or if such Title Defects
and/or  objections  are not cured,  Buyer  shall have the right,  in lieu of any
other  remedies,  to:  (i)  refuse to  purchase  the  Property,  terminate  this
Agreement and receive a return of the Earnest Money Deposit;  or (ii) waive such
Title Defects and/or  objections and close the purchase of the Property  subject
to such Title Defects.

                  (b)  Miscellaneous  Title  Matters.  If a search  of the title
discloses judgments,  bankruptcies or other returns against other persons having
names the same as or similar to that of Seller,  Seller shall on request deliver
to Buyer an affidavit stating, if true, that such judgments, bankruptcies or the
returns are not against Seller.  Seller further agrees to execute and deliver to
the Title  Insurance agent at Closing such  documentation,  if any, as the Title
Insurance underwriter shall reasonably require to

other properties, with the proceeds of the sale of the Shopping Center to Buyer.
Seller  expressly   reserves  the  right  to  assign  its  rights,  but  not  it
obligations, hereunder, to a qualified intermediary including without limitation
Escrow  Agent,  as provided in the  Internal  Revenue  Code and the  regulations
promulgated thereunder,  including without limitation Reg.  1.1031(k)-(l)(g)(4),

with respect  thereto;  and (ii) it is a condition of this  agreement that Buyer
and Seller enter into a mutually agreeable contract pursuant to which Buyer will
agree to sell to Seller,  and Seller will agree to purchase from Buyer the Other
Centers. It is not a condition that the transactions  contemplated by such other

                  than one (1) month in  advance,  and  minimum  rents and other
                  charges under the Lease are current.

         7.       All matters of an inducement nature and all obligations of the
                  Landlord under the Lease  concerning the  construction  of the
                  Tenant's  premises and  development  of the  Shopping  Center,
                  including without limitation, parking requirements,  have been
                  performed by Landlord.

         8.       The  Lease  contains  no first  right of  refusal,  option  to
                  expand,  option to terminate,  or exclusive  business  rights,

         9.       Tenant knows of no default by either  Landlord or Tenant under
                  the Lease,  and knows of no situations  which,  with notice or
                  the  passage of time,  or both,  would  constitute  a default.
                  Tenant has no rights to off-set or defense against Landlord as
                  of the date hereof.

         10.      The undersigned has not entered into any sublease,  assignment

The  undersigned  makes this statement for your benefit and protection  with the
understanding  that you intend to rely upon this  statement in  connection  with
your  intended  purchase of the above  described  Premises  from  Landlord.  The
undersigned  agrees that it will,  upon receipt of written notice from Landlord,
commence to pay all rents to you or to any Agent acting on your behalf.

                                                    Background


         (i) Buyer and Seller have previously entered into that certain Purchase
and Sale Agreement dated as of February 24, 1998 (the  "Agreement"),  concerning
the  purchase of a shopping  center  commonly  known as  "Highland  Square",  in

         (ii)  Seller  and Buyer  wish to amend  the  Agreement  as  hereinafter
provided.

         NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration of the foregoing and for other good
and valuable consideration,  receipt of which is hereby acknowledged,  Buyer and
Seller hereby agree as follows:

     1. Definitions.  All terms defined in the Agreement shall, when capitalized
in this First Amendment, have the same meanings attributed to them herein.

         2. Reduction of Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price shall be reduced by
the sum of $400,000.00.  Accordingly,  Section 2.1(a) of the Agreement is hereby
amended to read, in its entirety, as follows:

                  "(a) Purchase  Price and Terms.  The total  Purchase Price for
         the  Property  (subject  to  adjustment  as provided  herein)  shall be
         $11,600,000.00.   The  Purchase  Price  shall  be  payable  by  Buyer's

         4. Environmental  Escrow Agreement.  Buyer's inspection of the Property
has  revealed  certain  environmental  contamination  caused  by  a  drycleaning
operation  at the  Property.  At closing  Buyer and Seller  shall  enter into an
environmental  escrow  agreement  pursuant to which up to  $400,000.00  shall be
deposited with Escrow Agent pending  remediation of such contamination by Seller
in a manner  acceptable  to Buyer,  to be  reduced  to one  hundred  twenty-five
percent (125%) of the cost to remediate as agreed upon by Buyer and Seller prior
to Closing.  The form and  substance of the escrow  agreement  shall be mutually
acceptable to Seller, Buyer and the holder of the Surviving Mortgage.  If by the
Closing  Date Seller and Buyer have not agreed to the form and  substance of the
environmental  escrow agreement,  either may terminate this Agreement,  in which
event the Earnest Money Deposit shall be returned to Buyer.

         5. Other  Properties.  It is acknowledged that Seller is acquiring from
affiliates of Buyer two properties  commonly known as the "Lady's Island Publix"

negotiated.  The sale of the  Property to Buyer is  conditioned  upon Seller and
Buyer, and Buyer's affiliates reaching a satisfactory agreement concerning those
other properties.

         6. As amended hereby,  the Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full
force and effect.

         IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the Buyer and Seller have executed this Agreement
as of the day and year first above written.

for in this  Contract),  Buyer may elect to enforce the specific  performance of
this  Contract or  terminate  this  Contract and receive a refund of the Earnest

this Contract and retain the Earnest  Money  Deposit as  liquidated  damages for

Buyer at Closing,  all insurance  proceeds  payable for such damage,  and pay to
Buyer at Closing the amount of any  deductible  required  by Seller's  insurance
policies,  and the sale shall be closed  without  the  Seller's  repairing  such
damage.

        3.1    Inspection Period.

               (a)  Buyer  agrees  that it will  have the  Inspection  Period to
physically inspect the Property, underwrite the tenants and review their Leases,
and to  otherwise  conduct its due  diligence  review of the  Property,  and the
Materials.  Buyer shall  indemnify  and hold Seller  harmless  from any damages,
liabilities or claims for property damage or personal injury arising out of such
inspection and investigation by Buyer or its agents or independent  contractors.
Buyer's  obligation  to  indemnify  shall  expressly  survive the Closing or the
termination  of this  Agreement  and shall not be limited to the  Earnest  Money
Deposit.  Prior to any  entry  on the  Property  by Buyer or any of its  agents,
employees, consultants or contractors, Buyer shall provide to Seller evidence of
liability  insurance,  naming  Seller  as an  additional  insured,  in form  and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller. Within the Inspection Period, Buyer
may, in its sole discretion and for any reason or no reason, elect to go forward
with this Agreement to Closing, which election shall be made by notice to Seller
given within the  Inspection  Period.  If such notice is not timely given,  this
Agreement and all rights,  duties and obligations of Buyer and Seller hereunder,
except any which expressly survive termination, shall terminate and Escrow Agent
shall forthwith return to Buyer the Earnest Money Deposit. If Buyer elects to go
forward,  the Earnest Money Deposit shall be increased by an additional  deposit
of  $100,000.00  (to be deposited  with Escrow Agent no later than the first day
after the end of the Inspection Period), and shall not be refundable except upon
the terms otherwise set forth herein.

               (b) Seller will promptly  furnish or make  available to Buyer the
documents enumerated on Exhibit B attached hereto to the extent that they are in
Seller's possession. Buyer, through its officers, employees and other authorized
representatives,  shall  have the right to  reasonable  access to the  Property,
Leases  and  Seller  Financial  Statements,   at  reasonable  times  during  the
Inspection  Period  for the  purpose  of  inspecting  the  Property,  conducting
Hazardous  Materials  inspections  and  otherwise  conducting  its due diligence
review of the Property.  Seller shall  cooperate with and assist Buyer in making
such inspections and reviews provided that such cooperation  shall be at no cost
to Seller.  Buyer shall not  interfere  with the  business of Seller or with any
tenants,  and Buyer shall  restore  the  Property  to the same  condition  as it
existed  immediately  prior to the conducting of any such  inspection,  study or
investigation  immediately  upon  completion of each such  inspection,  study or
investigation.  Buyer shall not conduct any boring,  drilling,  cutting or other
intrusive  tests  without the prior  written  consent of Seller,  which  consent
Seller  shall have no  obligation  to give.  Buyer shall not permit any liens or
encumbrances  to arise or exist against the Property in connection  with or as a
result of its inspections,  studies or investigations. A copy of any inspection,
study or  investigation  reports or test results  shall be furnished by Buyer to
Seller promptly upon their completion.  Buyer, for itself and its agents, agrees
not to enter into any contract  with existing  tenants  prior to Closing.  Buyer
shall have the right,  with reasonable  prior written notice to Seller,  to have
due diligence interviews with tenants; provided, however, that Seller shall have
the  opportunity to be present at all such  interviews.  At Seller's  option,  a
representative  of Seller may  accompany  Buyer,  its agents,  employees  and/or
representatives during any time at which any of them are on the Property. Except
as  provided in this  Agreement,  Buyer  shall not visit the  Property  nor make
contact with the tenants,  contractors or  consultants  of the Property,  except
that Buyer may make  follow-up  telephone  calls to clarify issues raised during
site visits.  The  obligations  of Buyer under this Section 3.1(b) shall survive
termination of this Agreement.
<PAGE>

               (c)   Buyer,   through   its   officers   or   other   authorized
representatives,  shall  have the right to  reasonable  access to all  Materials
(other than privileged or confidential  materials) with reasonable prior written
notice to Seller,  for the  purpose of  reviewing  and  copying  the same at its
expense.

               (d) Seller has or will make the Materials  available to Buyer. By
providing,  and/or  making  available the  Materials to Buyer,  Seller,  and its
partners, agents, attorneys, representatives,  principals and affiliates are not
making,  nor shall be deemed to have made,  any  representations  or warranties,
implied or otherwise, as to the accuracy or completeness of the Materials and/or
any  information or conclusions  contained  therein.  Further,  Seller,  and its
partners, agents, attorneys, representatives,  principals and affiliates are not
making,  nor shall any of them be deemed to have made,  any  representations  or
warranties as to the skill and care taken in the  preparation  of the Materials.
Seller, and its partners,  agents,  attorneys,  representatives,  principals and
affiliates  are not  responsible  for  conditions or  consequences  arising from
relevant  facts that were  concealed,  withheld,  or not  disclosed by any third
party  (including any consultant or any regulatory or governmental  agency),  or
any persons interviewed as part of the preparation of the Materials.  Buyer also
acknowledges  that the  information  referenced in the Materials may change over
time and that Buyer must satisfy  itself as to whether or not the  Materials are
accurate.

        3.2 Hazardous Material.  Prior to the end of the Inspection Period Buyer
may order a phase 1  environmental  assessment  of the  Property.  A copy of any
assessment  report, if made, shall be furnished by Buyer to Seller promptly upon
its completion.

        3.3 Time and Place of Closing. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the
parties,  the Closing  shall take place at the offices of Seller's  attorneys at
10:00 A.M. on the date which is the tenth (10th) day following the expiration of
the  Inspection  Period,  provided  that Buyer may designate an earlier date for
Closing if mutually agreeable to Seller.

                    4. WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF SELLER

        4.1  Warranties,  Representations  and  Covenants.  Seller  warrants and
represents  as  follows  as of the date of this  Agreement  and,  unless  Seller
notifies  Buyer  otherwise  on or prior to Closing,  as of the Closing and where
indicated covenants and agrees as follows:

               (a) Organization; Authority. Seller is duly organized and validly
existing under the laws of the state of its  organization and the state in which
the Shopping  Center is located,  and has full power and authority to enter into
and  perform  this  Agreement  in  accordance  with its terms,  and the  persons
executing  this  Agreement  and  other  Transaction  Documents  have  been  duly
authorized to do so on behalf of Seller.  Seller is not a "foreign person" under
Sections 1445 or 897 of the Internal Revenue Code.

               (b) Authorization;  Validity.  The execution and delivery of this
Agreement by Seller and Seller's consummation of the transaction contemplated by
this  Agreement  have  been  duly and  validly  authorized.  Assuming  the valid
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Buyer, this Agreement  constitutes a
legal,  valid  and  binding  agreement  of  Seller  enforceable  against  it  in
accordance  with its terms,  subject to the  following  qualifications:  (1) the
effect of applicable  bankruptcy,  insolvency,  reorganization,  moratorium  and
other  similar laws  affecting  the rights of creditors  generally;  and (2) the
effect of the  exercise  of  judicial  discretion  in  accordance  with  general
principles of equity (whether applied by a court of law or of equity).
<PAGE>

               (c)  Commissions.  Seller has neither dealt with nor does it have
any knowledge of any broker or other party who has or may have any claim against
Seller, Buyer or the Property for a brokerage commission or finder's fee or like
payment  arising out of or in connection  with the  transaction  provided herein
except for Power Realty Advisors ("Broker") and Seller agrees to indemnify Buyer
from any such claim arising by, through or under Seller.

               (d)  Sale  Agreements.   The  Property  is  not  subject  to  any
outstanding  agreement(s) of sale,  option(s) to purchase,  or other right(s) of
third parties to acquire any ownership  interest  therein,  except for Permitted
Exceptions and this Agreement.


               (e)  Litigation.  There  are no  actions,  suits  or  proceedings
pending  against Seller with respect to which Seller has been served notice,  or
to the best of  Seller's  knowledge,  otherwise  pending or  threatened  against
Seller which, if determined  adversely to Seller, would (1) adversely affect its
ability to perform its  obligations  hereunder or (2)  materially  and adversely
affect the Property.

               (f)  Leases.  To the best of Seller's  knowledge,  (1) Seller has
delivered or made available to Purchaser complete copies of all Leases and other
occupancy  agreements affecting the Property to which Seller is a party, and (2)
the Rent Roll is true and complete in all material respects. Except as disclosed
in the Rent Roll:  (a) Seller has  received  no written  notice  from any tenant
claiming  that Seller is  currently in default in its  material  obligations  as
landlord under any Lease; (b) to the best of Seller's knowledge, no tenant is in
default in any  material  obligation  under its Lease;  and (c) no rent has been
paid  by any  tenant  more  than  one  month  in  advance.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing,  Seller does not represent or warrant that any particular  Lease will
be in effect or free from default as of the Closing.

               (g) Financial Statements. To the best of Seller's knowledge, each
of the  Seller  Financial  Statements  delivered  or to be  delivered  to  Buyer
hereunder  has or will  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with the books and
records of Seller.  Seller  covenants to furnish promptly to Buyer copies of the
Seller Financial  Statements  together with unaudited updated monthly reports of
cash  flow  for  periods  beginning  after  December  31,  1997.  Buyer  and its
independent  certified  accountants  shall be given access to Seller's books and
records  at any  time  prior to and for one (1)  month  following  Closing  upon
reasonable  advance  written  notice in order  that they may  verify  the Seller
Financial  Statements  for the  period of January  1, 1997  through  the date of
Closing.  Seller agrees to execute and deliver to Buyer or its  accountants  the
Audit Representation Letter should Buyer's accountants audit such records of the
Shopping Center.  Buyer and Seller agree that Seller is permitting such an audit
solely as an  accommodation  to Buyer in connection with Buyer'  compliance with
regulations  promulgated  by the U.S.  Security and Exchange  Commission.  Buyer
agrees  that Buyer will not assert any claim  against  Seller as a result of any
such audit and/or Audit Representation  Letter.  Without limiting the generality
of the  foregoing,  Buyer shall not assert that Seller has  breached  any of its
representations  or warranties under this Agreement as a result of such audit or
any information which is disclosed in connection with such audit.

               (h)  Contracts.   Except  for  Leases,  Contracts  and  Permitted
Exceptions, to the best of Seller's knowledge, there are no management, service,
maintenance,  utility or other  contracts or agreements  affecting the Property,

or encumber the Seller's interest in the Property for more than thirty (30) days
after Closing. To the best of Seller's knowledge,  (1) all Contracts are in full
force and effect in accordance with their respective  terms, and all obligations
of  Seller  under  the  Contracts  required  to be  performed  to date have been
performed  in all material  respects;  (2) no party to any Contract has asserted
any claim of default or offset against Seller with respect thereto;  and (3) the
copies of the  Contracts  delivered  to Buyer prior to the date hereof are true,
correct and complete  copies  thereof.  Between the date hereof and the Closing,
Seller covenants to fulfill all of its material obligations under all Contracts,
and  covenants  not to terminate or modify any such  Contracts or enter into any
new  contractual  obligations  relating to the  Property  without the consent of
Buyer (not to be unreasonably  withheld)  except such  obligations as are freely
terminable  without  penalty  by Seller  upon not more than  thirty  (30)  days'
written notice.
<PAGE>

               (i)  Maintenance  and  Operation of Property.  From and after the
date hereof and until the Closing, Seller covenants (1) to keep and maintain and
operate the Property  substantially in the manner in which it is currently being
maintained  and  operated;  (2) not to cause or permit any waste of the Property
nor  undertake  any action with  respect to the  operation  thereof  outside the
ordinary  course of business  without  Buyer's prior written  consent (not to be
unreasonably  withheld);  (3) not to remove  from the  Improvements  or the Real
Property  any article  included in the  Personal  Property  outside the ordinary
course of business; and (4) to maintain such casualty and liability insurance on
the Property as it is presently being maintained.

               (j) Permits and Zoning.  To the best  knowledge of Seller,  there
are no material  permits and licenses  (collectively  referred to as  "Permits")
required to be issued to Seller by any governmental  body,  agency or department
having  jurisdiction  over the Property which materially affect the ownership or
the use thereof which have not been issued.

               (k) Rent Roll; Tenant Estoppel  Letters.  To the best of Seller's
knowledge,  the Rent Roll is true and correct in all material  respects.  Seller
agrees to use its best  reasonable  efforts  (provided that Seller shall have no
obligation  to incur any costs or expenses) to obtain  current  Tenant  Estoppel
Letters during the Inspection  Period acceptable to Buyer from all Tenants under
Leases, which Tenant Estoppel Letters shall confirm the matters reflected by the
Rent Roll as to the particular tenant.

               (l) Condemnation.  To the best of Seller's knowledge, neither the
whole nor any portion of the Property,  including access thereto or any easement
benefiting  the  Property,  is subject to  temporary  requisition  of use by any
governmental authority or has been condemned, or taken in any proceeding similar
to a  condemnation  proceeding,  nor is  there  now  pending  any  condemnation,
expropriation,  requisition  or similar  proceeding  against the Property or any
portion  thereof.  Seller  has  received  no  written  notice nor has any actual
knowledge that any such proceeding is contemplated.

               (m) Governmental Matters.  Seller has received no written notices
from any such governmental  authorities or agencies of uncured violations at the
Property of building,  fire, air pollution or zoning codes, rules, ordinances or
regulations,  environmental  and  hazardous  substances  laws,  or other  rules,
ordinances or regulations relating to the Property.  Seller shall be responsible
for  the  remittance  of all  sales  tax  for  periods  occurring  prior  to the
Allocation Date directly to the appropriate state department of revenue.

               (n)  Repairs.  Seller  has  received  no  written  notice  of any
requirements  of any  lender,  insurance  companies,  or  governmental  body  or
agencies requiring any repairs or work to be done on the Property which have not
already been completed.

               (o) Consents and Approvals; No Violation. To the best of Seller's
knowledge, (1) neither the execution,  delivery or performance of this Agreement
nor  compliance  herewith (A) conflicts or will conflict with or results or will
result in a breach of or constitutes or will  constitute a default under (i) the
partnership  documents of Seller, (ii) any law or any order, writ, injunction or
decree  of any  court or  governmental  authority,  or (iii)  any  agreement  or
instrument  to which Seller is a party or by which it is bound or (B) results in
the creation or imposition of any lien,  charge or encumbrance upon its property
pursuant to any such agreement or instrument; and (2) no authorization, consent,
or approval of any governmental authority (including courts) is required for the
execution  and delivery by Seller of this  Agreement or the  performance  of its
obligations hereunder.

               (p) Environmental  Matters.  Except as set forth in the Materials
and any  environmental  reports  delivered to Buyer, (I) Seller has not released
any  Hazardous  Materials  onto or from the Property in violation of  applicable

WARRANTS TO BUYER THAT SELLER HAS  KNOWLEDGE  AND  EXPERIENCE  IN FINANCIAL  AND
BUSINESS  MATTERS THAT ENABLE  SELLER TO FULLY  EVALUATE THE MERITS AND RISKS OF

Transaction  Documents  is  qualified  by the  phrase  "to the best of  Seller's
knowledge," or by words of similar import,  the accuracy of such  representation
shall be based  solely on the actual (as  opposed to  constructive  or  imputed)
knowledge of the general partners of Seller without independent investigation or
inquiry and any liability resulting hereunder based upon such representations or
warranties shall be solely that of Seller and not, in any event, of such general
partners of Seller  personally  and (b) if, prior to the Closing,  Buyer obtains
actual knowledge that any representation or warranty of Seller is inaccurate and
Buyer nonetheless proceeds with the Closing,  Seller shall have no liability for
any such matter  regarding  which Buyer had actual  knowledge  prior to Closing.

faith estimated by Seller,  to repair to  substantially  its condition as of the
date hereof;  and "Material Portion" shall mean a portion of the Property valued

for costs incurred by Seller to preserve, protect or repair the Property or (ii)
attributable to rent loss for any period prior to Closing).  In such event,  the
Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance deductible to the

specifically  describing  each Title Objection (the "Title  Objection  Notice"),
notify Seller of such Title  Objection(s).  The Title Objection  Notice shall be
accompanied  by a copy of the  Title  Insurance  Commitment  or  Survey  clearly
depicting each Title  Objection.  Purchaser shall be deemed to have accepted all
matters shown on the Title Insurance Commitment and/or Survey except for matters
which are included in the Title Objections.  Seller shall have five (5) business
days following receipt of the Title Objection Notice to cure or agree in writing
to cure such Title Objections, but Seller shall have no obligation whatsoever to
cure  such  Title  Objections  or to incur  any cost or  expense  in  connection
therewith.  In the event that Seller  agrees in writing to cure any of the Title
Objections,  Seller shall cure such Title  Objections on or prior to the Closing
Date. In the event that Seller has not cured or agreed in writing to cure all of
the Title  Objections  within the five (5) business day period  specified above,
Purchaser shall either: (1) waive the uncured Title Objections by written notice
to Seller and Escrow Agent and accept the Property and title thereto  subject to
the uncured Title  Objections  without any adjustment of the Purchase  Price, or
(2) terminate this  Agreement.  If Purchaser's  waiver notice is not received by
Seller  within  ten (10)  business  days  after  Seller's  receipt  of the Title
Objection  Notice,  then it will conclusively be presumed that Purchaser elected
to terminate this Agreement.

               (b)  Miscellaneous  Title  Matters.  If a  search  of  the  title
discloses judgments,  bankruptcies or other returns against other persons having
names the same as or similar to that of Seller,  Seller shall on request deliver
to Buyer an affidavit stating, if true, that such judgments, bankruptcies or the
returns are not against Seller.  Seller further agrees to execute and deliver to
the title  insurance agent at Closing such  documentation,  if any, as the title
insurance  underwriter  shall reasonably  require to evidence that the execution
and  delivery  of  this  Agreement  and  the  consummation  of  the  transaction
contemplated  hereby have been duly  authorized and that there are no mechanics'
liens on the Seller's  interest in the Property  (excluding liens arising due to
the acts of Buyer or any person or entity  claiming by or through  Buyer) or, to
the best of Seller's knowledge, parties in possession of the Property other than
tenants under Leases, subtenants and others claiming by or through tenants under
Leases and Seller.

property  (other than the  Property)  and Buyer and Buyer's  counsel  shall have

Dear Sirs:

       We are  providing  this  letter  in  connection  with  your  audit of the

its operations of  _____________________  in conformity with generally  accepted
accounting principles.

       Certain  representations in this letter are described as being limited to
matters that are material. Items are considered material, regardless of size, if
they involve an omission or misstatement of accounting  information that, in the
light of  surrounding  circumstances,  makes it probable  that the judgment of a
reasonable  person relying on the information  would be changed or influenced by
the omission or misstatement.

       We  confirm,  to the best of our  knowledge  and  belief,  the  following
representations made to you during your audit:

       1.      We have made available to you:

               a. All financial records and related data relating to the subject

               a. Known instances of fraud involving management or employees who
have significant roles in internal control.

               b. Known  instances of fraud  involving  others that could have a
material effect on the Statement of Revenue and Certain Expenses.

               c.  Known   violations   or  possible   violations   of  laws  or
regulations,  the effects of which should be  considered  for  disclosure in the
Statement  of Revenue  and Certain  Expenses or as a basis for  recording a loss
contingency.

       3.      There are no:

               a. Unasserted claims or assessments that our lawyers have advised
us are probable of assertion and would be required to be disclosed in accordance
with  Statement  of  Financial   Accounting   Standards  No.  5  Accounting  for
Contingencies (SFAS No. 5).

               b.  Material  gain  or loss  contingencies  (including  oral  and
written  guarantees)  that would be required to be accrued or  disclosed by SFAS
No. 5.

               c. Material  transactions that have not been properly recorded in
the  accounting  records  underlying  the  Statement  of  Revenues  and  Certain
Expenses.

               d. Events that have occurred  subsequent to  _______________  and
through the date of this letter that would  require  adjustment to or disclosure
in the Statement of Revenues and Certain  Expenses,  except the proposed sale of
the subject property.

       4. The Company has complied  with all aspects of  contractual  agreements
that would have a material  effect on the  Statement  of  Revenues  and  Certain
Expenses in the event of noncompliance.

       5.  All  related  party  transactions  have  been  properly  recorded  or
disclosed in the Statement of Revenues and Certain Expenses.

                                                   Very truly yours,
