Item 1 Business.

      Corporate Property Associates 12 (CPA(R):12) Incorporated is a Real Estate
Investment Trust ("REIT") that acquires and owns commercial properties leased to
companies nationwide, primarily on a triple net basis. As of December 31, 1998,
CPA(R):12's portfolio consisted of 85 properties leased to 36 tenants and
totaling more than 7.9 million square feet.

      CPA(R):12's core investment strategy is to purchase and own properties
leased to a variety of companies on a single tenant net lease basis. These
leases generally place the economic burden of ownership on the tenant by
requiring them to pay the costs of maintenance, insurance, taxes, structural
repairs and other operating expenses.

      CPA(R):12 also generally includes in its leases:

      o     clauses providing for mandated rent increases or periodic rent
            increases tied to increases in the consumer price index or other
            indices or, when appropriate, increases tied to the volume of sales
            at the property;

      o     covenants restricting the activity of the tenant to reduce the risk
            of a change in credit quality;

      o     indemnification of CPA(R):12 for environmental and other
            liabilities;

      o     guarantees from parent companies or other entities.

      CPA(R):12 was formed as a Maryland corporation on July 30, 1993. Between
February 1994 and September 1997, CPA(R):12 sold a total of 28,334,451 shares of
common stock for a total of $283,344,510 in offering proceeds. These proceeds
have been combined with limited recourse mortgage debt to purchase CPA(R):12's
property portfolio. As a real estate investment trust, CPA(R):12 is not subject
to federal income taxation as long as it satisfies certain requirements relating
to the nature of its income, the level of its distributions and other factors.

      Carey Property Advisors provides both strategic and day-to-day management
for CPA(R):12, including acquisition services, research, investment analysis,
asset management, capital funding services, disposition of assets, investor
relations and administrative services. Carey Property Advisors also provides
office space and other facilities for CPA(R):12. Carey Property Advisors has
dedicated senior executives in each area of its organization so that CPA(R):12
functions as a fully integrated operating company. CPA(R):12 pays asset
management fees to Carey Property Advisors and pays certain transactional fees.
CPA(R):12 also reimburses Carey Property Advisors for certain expenses. Carey
Property Advisors also serves in this capacity for Corporate Property Associates
10 Incorporated, Carey Institutional Properties Incorporated and Corporate
Property Associates 14 Incorporated.

      CPA(R):12's principal executive offices are located at 50 Rockefeller
Plaza, New York, NY 10020 and its telephone number is (212) 492-1100. As of
March 24, 1999, CPA(R):12 had no employees. An affiliate of Carey Property
Advisors employs 20 individuals who perform services for CPA(R):12.

Business Objectives and Strategy

      CPA(R):12's objectives are to:

      o     pay quarterly dividend at an increasing rate that for taxable
            shareholders may be partially free from current taxation;

      o     purchase and own a portfolio of real estate that will increase in
            value; and

      o     increase the equity in its real estate by making regular mortgage
            principal payments.

      CPA(R):12 seeks to achieve these objectives by purchasing and holding
industrial and commercial properties each net leased to a single corporate
tenant. CPA(R):12 's portfolio is diversified by geography, property type and by
tenant.

Recent Developments

      On March 23, 1998, CPA(R):12 purchased land and building in Houston, Texas
for $7,199,000 and assumed an existing net lease with First Aid Products, Inc.,
as lessee. The obligations of the lease are unconditionally guaranteed by First
Aid's parent company, NutraMax Products, Inc. The lease has an initial annual
term through April 2013 with one five-year renewal term at the tenant's option.
Annual rent, currently $823,968, provides for annual rent increases based on
increases in the Consumer Price Index, capped at 5%.

      On April 14, 1998, CPA(R):12 purchased a property in Ft. Dodge, Iowa for
$3,874,000 from Silgan Containers Corporation and amended its existing lease
with Silgan to include the Ft. Dodge property with two other properties. As
amended, the initial lease term was extended through March 2013 with three
five-year renewals at Silgan's option and annual rent was increased $893,200 to
$1,275,000.

      On May 18, 1998, CPA(R):12 purchased land in Ashburn, Virginia and entered
into construction and lease agreements with International Management Consultant
Inc. ("IMCI"). Construction was completed in February 1999 at which time IMCI
took occupancy of the property. After a rent abatement period of six months,
annual rent will be $754,404 with rent increases every year based on increases
in the Consumer Price Index, capped at 3%. The lease has an initial term of
fifteen years through February 2014.

      On June 23, 1998, CPA(R):12 purchased land in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania
and entered into construction agency and lease agreements with BCC Development
and Management Co. This build-to-suit project is scheduled for completion before
the end of the second quarter of 1999. The lease provides for an initial term of
fifteen years with two five-year renewals at the option of the tenant. Annual
rent will initially be an amount representing 9.9% total project costs, which
are expected to total approximately $4,753,000.

      On December 22, 1998, through a 33 1/3% interest in a limited liability
company that was formed with two affiliates, CPA(R):12 purchased land and
buildings in Sunnyvale, California and entered into a net lease with Advanced
Micro Devices, Inc. ("AMD"). The total purchase price of the building was
$95,287,958 with $68,250,000 of the financing provided through a limited
recourse mortgage loan. CPA(R):12's equity contribution, including its share of
deferred acquisition fees, representing the purchase price less the mortgage
financing was $9,012,653. The AMD lease has an initial term of 20 years with two
ten-year renewal terms at AMD's option. The lease provides for annual rent of
$9,145,500 with rent increases every three years, with each rent increase capped
at 6.903%. The loan has a ten-year term and provides for monthly payments of
interest and principal based on a 30-year amortization schedule and an annual
interest rate of 7.78%. CPA(R):12's share of annual distributions from this
investment is expected to be $1,066,000, representing approximately one-third of
the limited liability company's annual operating cash flow (rent less mortgage
debt service).

      On February 3, 1999,through a 50% interest in a limited liability company
which CPA(R):12 formed with an affiliate, CPA(R):12 acquired an interest in land
and buildings in Gilbert, Arizona, and through the limited liability company
interest, entered into a net lease with Intesys Technologies, Inc. The total
purchase price of the building was $23,560,000. The Intesys lease has an initial
term of 20 years with two ten-year renewal options at the tenant's option. The
lease provides for annual rent of $2,274,750. There are rent increases every
three years based on increases in the Consumer Price Index with increases capped
at 9%.

      In February 1995, CPA(R):12 purchased land and buildings in Hayward,
California for $11,860,000 and entered into a net lease with Etec Systems, Inc.
In August 1996, CPA(R):12 entered into a commitment to construct an additional
building at the Etec property, and in January 1997, the Company completed
construction of the building for $5,241,000. In February 1998, CPA:12 entered
into a series of transactions including paying off the existing limited recourse
mortgage loan on the Etec property, entering into a commitment and construction
agency agreement to fund additional improvements of up to $52,356,000, amending
the existing lease with Etec and transferring ownership of the Etec property to
a limited liability company in which, Corporate Property Associates 14
Incorporated ("CPA(R):14"), an affiliate, has an ownership interest. At that
time, CPA(R):12 paid off the $7,957,947 existing limited recourse mortgage loan
collateralized by the Etec property. Under the limited liability agreement,
CPA(R):14 will have a 49.99% interest 


                                      -2-
<PAGE>   4

in the additional improvements and will not share in the economic benefits from
the existing buildings. CPA(R):12 releveraged the existing buildings with
$15,000,000 of limited recourse mortgage financing and has received a commitment
of $30,000,000 of financing for the additional improvements. The initial
$15,000,000 of mortgage financing provides for monthly payments of principal and
interest at an annual interest rate of 7.11%, and will fully amortize in
December 2013. The remaining $30,000,000 mortgage will also bear interest at an
annual interest rate of 7.11% and will be scheduled to fully amortize over its
term.

      As more fully discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial
statements in Item 8, Lanxide Corporation, a tenant of a property in Newark,
Delaware, has filed a petition of bankruptcy and is in the process of
liquidating. CPA(R):12 has assumed three short-term subleases at the property.
As a result, CPA(R):12 expects the annual rent from this property to decrease to
approximately $585,000, representing the subtenants rents, from $1,030,000, if
the lease is terminated pursuant to Lanxide"s bankruptcy petition. There is no
assurance that any of the subleases, which expire in 2000 and 2001, will be
renewed.

Acquisition Strategies

      Carey Property Advisors has a well-developed process with established
procedures and systems for acquiring net leased property on behalf of CPA(R):12.
As a result of its reputation and experience in the industry and the contacts
maintained by its professionals, Carey Property Advisors has a presence in the
net lease market that has provided it with the opportunity to invest in a
significant number of transactions on an ongoing basis. CPA(R):12 takes
advantage of Carey Property Advisors' presence in the net lease market to build
its portfolio. In evaluating opportunities for CPA(R):12, Carey Property
Advisors carefully examines the credit, management and other attributes of the
tenant and the importance of the property under consideration to the tenant's
operations. Careful credit analysis is a crucial aspect of every transaction.
CPA(R):12 believes that Carey Property Advisors has one of the most extensive
underwriting processes in the industry and has an experienced staff of
professionals involved with underwriting transactions. Carey Property Advisors
seeks to identify those prospective tenants whose creditworthiness is likely to
improve over time. CPA(R):12 believes that the experience of Carey Property
Advisors' management in structuring sale-leaseback transactions to meet the
needs of a prospective tenant enables Carey Property Advisors to obtain a higher
return for a given level of risk than would typically be available by purchasing
a property subject to an existing lease.

Carey Property Advisors' strategy in structuring its net lease investments for
CPA(R):12 is to:

      o     combine the stability and security of long-term lease payments,
            including rent increases, with the appreciation potential inherent
            in the ownership of real estate;

      o     enhance current returns by utilizing varied lease structures;

      o     reduce credit risk by diversifying investments by tenant, type of
            facility, geographic location and tenant industry; and

      o     increase potential returns by obtaining equity enhancements from the
            tenant when possible, such as warrants to purchase tenant common
            stock.

Financing Strategies

      Consistent with its investment policies, CPA(R):12 uses leverage when
available on favorable terms. CPA(R):12 has approximately $109,261,000 in
property level debt outstanding. These mortgages mature between 2000 and 2020
and have interest rates between 6.85% and 10.25%. Carey Property Advisors
continually seeks opportunities and considers alternative financing techniques
to finance properties not currently subject to debt, refinance debt, reduce
interest expense or improve its capital structure.

Transaction Origination

      In analyzing potential acquisitions, Carey Property Advisors reviews and
structures many aspects of a transaction, including the tenant, the real estate
and the lease, to determine whether a potential acquisition can be structured to
satisfy CPA(R):12's acquisition criteria. The aspects of a transaction which are
reviewed and structured by Carey Property Advisors include the following:

      o     Tenant Evaluation. Carey Property Advisors subjects each potential
            tenant to an extensive evaluation of its credit, management,
            position within its industry, operating history and profitability.
            Carey Property Advisors seeks tenants it believes will have


                                      -3-
<PAGE>   5

            stable or improving credit. By leasing properties to these types of
            tenants, CPA(R):12 can generally charge rent that is higher than the
            rent charged to tenants with recognized credit and, thereby, enhance
            its current return from these properties as compared with properties
            leased to companies whose credit potential has already been
            recognized by the market. Furthermore, if a tenant's credit does
            improve, the value of CPA(R):12's properties leased to that tenant
            will likely increase (if all other factors affecting value remain
            unchanged). Carey Property Advisors may also seek to enhance the
            likelihood of a tenant's lease obligations being satisfied, such as
            through a letter of credit or a guaranty of lease obligations from
            the tenant's corporate parent. This credit enhancement provides
            CPA(R):12 with additional financial security.

      o     Leases with Increasing Rents. Carey Property Advisors seeks to
            include clauses in CPA(R):12's leases that provide for increases in
            rent over the term of the leases. These increases are generally tied
            to increases in certain indices such as the consumer price index, in
            the case of retail stores, participation in gross sales above a
            stated level, mandated rental increases on specific dates and
            through other methods. CPA(R):12 seeks to avoid entering into leases
            that provide for contractual reductions in rents during their
            primary term (other than reductions related to reductions in debt
            service).

      o     Properties Important to Tenant Operations. Carey Property Advisors,
            on behalf of CPA(R):12, generally seeks to acquire properties with
            operations that are essential or important to the ongoing operations
            of the tenant. CPA(R):12 believes that these properties provide
            better protection in the event that tenants file for bankruptcy,
            because leases on properties essential or important to the
            operations of a bankrupt tenant are less likely to be rejected and
            terminated by a bankrupt tenant. Carey Property Advisors also seeks
            to assess the income, cash flow and profitability of the business
            conducted at the property, so that, if the tenant is unable to
            operate its business, CPA(R):12 can either continue operating the
            business conducted at the property or re-lease the property to
            another entity in the industry which can operate the property
            profitably.

      o     Lease Provisions that Enhance and Protect Value. When appropriate,
            Carey Property Advisors attempts to include provisions in
            CPA(R):12's leases that require CPA(R):12's consent to certain
            tenant activity or require the tenant to satisfy certain operating
            tests. These provisions include, for example, operational and
            financial covenants of the tenant, prohibitions on a change in
            control of the tenant and indemnification from the tenant against
            environmental and other contingent liabilities. Including these
            provisions in its leases enables CPA(R):12 to protect its investment
            from changes in the operating and financial characteristics of a
            tenant that may impact its ability to satisfy its obligations to
            CPA(R):12 or could reduce the value of CPA(R):12's properties.

      o     Diversification. Carey Property Advisors tries to diversify
            CPA(R):12's portfolio of properties to avoid dependence on any one
            particular tenant, type of facility, geographic location and tenant
            industry. By diversifying its portfolio, CPA(R):12 reduces the
            adverse effect on CPA(R):12 of a single underperforming investment
            or a downturn in any particular industry or geographic location.

      Carey Property Advisors employs a variety of other strategies and
practices in connection with CPA(R):12's acquisitions. These strategies include
attempting to obtain equity enhancements in connection with transactions.
Typically, these equity enhancements involve warrants to purchase stock of the
tenant to which the property is leased or the stock of the parent of the tenant.
In certain instances, CPA(R):12 grants to the tenant a right to purchase the
property leased by the tenant, but generally the option purchase price will be
not less than the fair market value of the property. Carey Property Advisors'
practices include performing evaluations of the physical condition of properties
and performing environmental surveys in an attempt to determine potential
environmental liabilities associated with a property prior to its acquisition.

      As a transaction is structured, it is evaluated by the Chairman of the
Investment Committee with respect to the potential tenant's credit, business
prospects, position within its industry and other characteristics important to
the long-term value of the property and the capability of the tenant to meet its
lease obligations. Before a property is acquired, the transaction is reviewed by
the Investment Committee to ensure that it satisfies CPA(R):12's investment
criteria. Aspects of the transaction that are typically reviewed by the
Investment


                                      -4-
<PAGE>   6

Committee include the expected financial returns, the creditworthiness of the
tenant, the real estate characteristics and the lease terms.

      The Investment Committee is not directly involved in originating or
negotiating potential acquisitions, but instead functions as a separate and
final step in the acquisition process. Carey Property Advisors places special
emphasis on having experienced individuals serve on its Investment Committee and
does not invest in a transaction unless it is approved by the Investment
Committee.

      CPA(R):12 believes that the Investment Committee review process gives it a
unique, competitive advantage over other unaffiliated net lease companies
because of the substantial experience and perspective that the Investment
Committee has in evaluating the blend of corporate credit, real estate and lease
terms that combine to make an acceptable risk.

      The following people serve on the Investment Committee:

      o     George E. Stoddard, Chairman, was formerly responsible for the
            direct corporate investments of The Equitable Life Assurance Society
            of the United States and has been involved with the CPA(R) Programs
            for over 19 years.

      o     Frank J. Hoenemeyer, Vice Chairman, was formerly Vice Chairman,
            Director and Chief Investment Officer of The Prudential Insurance
            Company of America. As Chief Investment Officer, Mr. Hoenemeyer was
            responsible for all of Prudential's investments, including stocks,
            bonds, private placements, real estate and mortgages.

      o     Nathaniel S. Coolidge previously served as Senior Vice President -
            Head of Bond & Corporate Finance Department of the John Hancock
            Mutual Life Insurance Company. His responsibilities included
            overseeing $21 billion of Fixed income investments for Hancock, its
            affiliates and outside clients.

      o     Lawrence R. Klein is Benjamin Franklin Professor of Economics
            Emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania and its Wharton School.
            Dr. Klein has been awarded the Alfred Nobel Memorial Prize in
            Economic Sciences and currently advises various governments and
            government agencies. Dr. Klein serves as an alternate member of the
            Investment Committee

Asset Management

      CPA(R):12 believes that effective management of its net lease assets is
essential to maintain and enhance property values. Important aspects of asset
management include restructuring transactions to meet the evolving needs of
current tenants, re-leasing properties, refinancing debt, selling properties and
knowledge of the bankruptcy process.

      Carey Property Advisors monitors, on an ongoing basis, compliance by
tenants with their lease obligations and other factors that could affect the
financial performance of any of its properties. Monitoring involves receiving
assurances that each tenant has paid real estate taxes, assessments and other
expenses relating to the properties it occupies and confirming that appropriate
insurance coverage is being maintained by the tenant. Carey Property Advisors
reviews financial statements of its tenants and undertakes regular physical
inspections of the condition and maintenance of its properties. Additionally,
Carey Property Advisors periodically analyzes each tenant's financial condition,
the industry in which each tenant operates and each tenant's relative strength
in its industry.


                                      -5-
<PAGE>   7

Holding Period

      CPA(R):12 intends to hold each property it acquires for an extended
period. The determination of whether a particular property should be sold or
otherwise disposed of will be made after consideration of relevant factors with
a view to achieving maximum capital appreciation and after-tax return for the
CPA(R):12 shareholders. If CPA(R):12's common stock is not listed for trading on
a national securities exchange or included for quotation on Nasdaq, CPA(R):12
will generally begin selling properties within ten years after the proceeds of
the public offering are substantially invested, subject to market conditions.
The board of directors will make the decision whether to list the shares,
liquidate or devise an alternative liquidation strategy which is likely to
result in the greatest value for the shareholders.

Competition

      CPA(R):12 faces competition for the acquisition of office and industrial
properties in general, and such properties net leased to major corporations in
particular, from insurance companies, credit companies, pension funds, private
individuals, investment companies and other REITs. CPA(R):12 also faces
competition from institutions that provide or arrange for other types of
commercial financing through private or public offerings of equity or debt or
traditional bank financings. CPA(R):12 believes its management's experience in
real estate, credit underwriting and transaction structuring will allow
CPA(R):12 to compete effectively for office and industrial properties.

Environmental Matters

      Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, regulations and
ordinances, current or former owners of real estate, as well as certain other
categories of parties, may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or
toxic chemicals, substances or waste or petroleum product or waste
(collectively, "Hazardous Materials") releases on, under, in or from such
property, and may be held liable to governmental entities or to third parties
for certain damage and for investigation and cleanup costs incurred by such
parties in connection with the release or threatened release of Hazardous
Materials. Such laws typically impose responsibility and liability without
regard to whether the owner knew of or was responsible for the presence of
Hazardous Materials, and the liability under such laws has been interpreted to
be joint and several under certain circumstances. CPA(R):12's leases often
provide that the tenant is responsible for all environmental liability and for
compliance with environmental regulations relating to the tenant's operations.

      CPA(R):12 typically undertakes an investigation of potential environmental
risks when evaluating an acquisition. Phase I assessments are performed by
independent environmental consulting and engineering firms for all acquisitions.
Where warranted, Phase II assessments are performed. Phase I assessments do not
involve subsurface testing, whereas Phase II assessments involve some degree of
soil and/or groundwater testing. CPA(R):12 may acquire a property which is known
to have had a release of Hazardous Materials in the past, subject to a
determination of the level of risk and potential cost of remediation. CPA(R):12
normally requires property sellers to indemnify it fully against any
environmental problem existing as of the date of purchase. Additionally,
CPA(R):12 often structures its leases to require the tenant to assume most or
all responsibility for environmental compliance or environmental remediation
relating to the tenants operations and to provide that non-compliance with
environmental laws is deemed a lease default. In certain instances, CPA(R):12
may also require a cash reserve, a letter of credit or a guarantee from the
tenant, the tenant's parent company or a third party to assure lease compliance
and funding of remediation. The value of any of these protections depends on the
amount of the collateral and/or financial strength of CPA(R):12 providing the
protection. Such a contractual arrangement does not eliminate CPA(R):12's
statutory liability or preclude claims against CPA(R):12 by governmental
authorities or persons who are not a party to such an arrangement. Contractual
arrangements in CPA(R):12's leases may provide a basis for CPA(R):12 to recover
from the tenant damages or costs for which CPA(R):12 has been found liable.

Industry Segment

      CPA(R):12 operates in one industry segment, investment in net leased real
property. For the year ended December 31, 1998, no lessee represented 10% or
more of the total operating revenue of CPA(R):12.

Factors Affecting Future Operating Results

      The provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
(the "Act") became effective in December 1995. The Act provides a "safe harbor"
for companies that make forward-looking statements providing prospective
information. The "safe harbor" under the Act relates to protection for companies
with respect to litigation filed on the basis of such forward-looking
statements.

      CPA(R):12 wishes to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the
Act and is therefore including this section in its Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The statements contained in this Annual Report, if not historical, are
forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties which are
described below that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
results, financial or otherwise, or other expectations described in such
forward-looking statements. These statements are identified with the words
"anticipated," "expected," "intends," "seeks" or "plans" or words of similar
meaning. Therefore, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a
prediction of actual future results or occurrences.

      CPA(R):12's future results may be affected by certain risks and
uncertainties including the following:

Single Tenant Leases Increases Exposure to Failure of Tenant

      We focus our acquisition activities on net leased real properties or
interests therein. Due to the fact that our net leased real properties are
leased to single tenants, the financial failure of or other default by a tenant
resulting in the termination of a lease is likely to cause a reduction in the
operating cash flow of CPA(R):12 and might decrease the value of the property
leased to such tenant.

Dependence on Major Tenants

      Revenues from several of our tenants and/or their guarantors constitute a
significant percentage of our consolidated rental revenues. Our five largest
tenants/guarantors, which occupy 11 properties, represent 30% of annualized
revenues. The default, financial distress or bankruptcy of any of the tenants of
such properties could cause interruptions in the receipt of lease revenues from
such tenants and/or result in vacancies in the respective properties, which
would reduce our revenues until the affected property is re-let, and could
decrease the ultimate sale value of each such property. Upon the expiration of
the leases that are currently in place, we may not be able to re-lease the
vacant property at a comparable lease rate or without incurring additional
expenditures in connection with such re-leasing.

We Can Borrow a Significant Amount of Funds

      We have incurred, and may continue to incur, indebtedness (secured and
unsecured) in furtherance of our activities. Neither the certificate of
incorporation, bylaws nor any policy statement formally adopted by the board of
directors limits either the total amount of indebtedness or the specified
percentage of indebtedness (based upon the total market capitalization of
CPA(R):12) that may be incurred. Accordingly, we could become more highly
leveraged, resulting in increased risk of default on our obligations and in an
increase in debt service requirements which could adversely affect our financial
condition and results of operations and our ability to pay distributions.

Possible Inability to Refinance Balloon Payment on Mortgage Debt

      A significant number of our properties are subject to mortgages with
balloon payments. Scheduled balloon payments for the next five years are as
follows:

      o     1999 - none;
      o     2000 - 7.7 million;
      o     2001 - 2.0 million;
      o     2002 - 4.6 million; and
      o     2003 - 5.1 million;

Our ability to make such balloon payments will depend upon our ability either to
refinance the mortgage related thereto, invest additional equity in the property
or to sell the related property. Our ability to accomplish these goals will be
affected by various factors existing at the relevant time, such as the state of
the national


                                      -7-
<PAGE>   9

and regional economies, local real estate conditions, available mortgage rates,
our equity in the mortgaged properties, our financial condition, the operating
history of the mortgaged properties and tax laws.

There are Uncertainties Relating to Lease Renewals and Re-letting of Space

      o     We will be subject to the risks that, upon expiration of leases, the
            premises may not be re-let or the terms of re-letting (including the
            cost of concessions to tenants) may be less favorable than current
            lease terms. If we are unable to re-let promptly all or a
            substantial portion of our properties or if the rental rates upon
            such re-letting were significantly lower than current rates, our net
            income and ability to make expected distributions to our
            shareholders would be adversely affected. There can be no assurance
            that we will be able to retain tenants in any of our properties upon
            the expiration of their leases. Other than the Lanxide tenants, no
            leases are scheduled to expire during the next five years.

Possible Liability Relating to Environmental Matters

      We own industrial and commercial properties and are subject to the risk of
liabilities under federal, state and local environmental laws. Some of these
laws could impose the following on CPA(R):12:

      o     Responsibility and liability for the cost of investigation and
            removal or remediation of hazardous substances released on our
            property, generally without regard to our knowledge or
            responsibility of the presence of the contaminants;

      o     Liability for the costs of investigation and removal or remediation
            of hazardous substances at disposal facilities for persons who
            arrange for the disposal or treatment of such substances; and

      o     Potential liability for common law claims by third parties based on
            damages and costs of environmental contaminants.

We May be Unable to Make Acquisitions on an Advantageous Basis

      The consummation of any future acquisition will be subject to satisfactory
completion of our extensive analysis and due diligence review and to the
negotiation of definitive documentation. There can be no assurance that we will
be able to identify and acquire additional properties or that we will be able to
finance acquisitions in the future. In addition, there can be no assurance that
any such acquisition, if consummated, will be profitable for us. If we are
unable to consummate the acquisition of additional properties in the future,
there can be no assurance that we will be able to increase the cash available
for distribution to our shareholders.

We May Suffer Uninsured Loss

      We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage on most of our
properties, with policy specifications and insured limits customarily carried
for similar properties. CPA(R):12 carries similar insurance for these properties
if the tenant is not required to do so. In addition, CPA(R):12 carries
contingent property and liability insurance. There are certain types of losses
(such as due to wars or acts of God) that generally are not insured because they
are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Should an uninsured loss
or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could lose capital invested in a
property, as well as the anticipated future revenues from a property, while
remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations
related to the property. Any such loss would adversely affect our financial
condition. We believe that the properties are adequately insured in accordance
with industry standards.

Changes in Market Interest Rates Could Cause Our Stock Price to Go Down

      The trading prices of equity securities issued by real estate companies
have historically been affected by changes in broader market interest rates,
with increases in interest rates resulting in decreases in trading prices, and
decreases in interest rates resulting in increases in such trading prices. An
increase in market interest rates could therefore adversely affect the trading
prices of any of our equity securities.

We Face Intense Competition

      The real estate industry is highly competitive. Our principal competitors
include national REITs, many of which are substantially larger and have
substantially greater financial resources than us.

The Value of our Real Estate is Subject to Fluctuation

      We are subject to all of the general risks associated with the ownership
of real estate. In particular, we face the risk that rental revenue from the
properties will be insufficient to cover all corporate operating expenses and
debt service payments on indebtedness we incur. Additional real estate ownership
risks include:

            o     Adverse changes in general or local economic conditions;
            o     Changes in supply of or demand for similar or competing
                  properties;
            o     Changes in interest rates and operating expenses; 
            o     Competition for tenants;
            o     Changes in market rental rates; 
            o     Inability to lease properties upon termination of existing
                  leases;
            o     Renewal of leases at lower rental rates;
            o     Inability to collect rents from tenants due to financial
                  hardship, including bankruptcy;
            o     Changes in tax, real estate, zoning and environmental laws
                  that may have an adverse impact upon the value of real estate;
            o     Uninsured property liability;
            o     property damage or casualty losses;
            o     Unexpected expenditures for capital improvements or to bring
                  properties into compliance with applicable federal, state and
                  local laws; and
            o     Acts of God and other factors beyond the control of our
                  management.

Our Systems May Not Be Year 2000 Compliant

            The "Year 2000 issue" refers to the series of problems that have
resulted or may result from the inability of certain computer software and
embedded processes to properly process dates. This shortcoming could result in
the failure of major systems or miscalculations causing major disruptions to
business operations. CPA(R):12 has no computer systems of its own, but is
dependent upon the systems maintained by an affiliate of its Advisor and certain
other third parties including its banks and transfer agent.

            CPA(R):12 and its affiliates are actively evaluating their readiness
relating to the Year 2000 issue. In 1998, CPA(R):12, its Advisor, and affiliates
commenced an assessment of their local area network of personal computers and
related equipment and are in the process of replacing or upgrading the equipment
that has been identified as not being Year 2000 compliant. The program is
expected to be substantially completed in the second quarter of 1999. CPA(R):12
and its affiliates have also engaged outside consultants experienced in
diagnosing systems and software applications and addressing Year 2000 issues,
and with the help of these consultants currently are remediating as necessary.

            At the same time, CPA(R):12, its Advisor, and affiliates are
evaluating their applications software, all of which are commercial "off the
shelf" programs that have not been customized. During 1998, CPA(R):12 commenced
a project to select a comprehensive integrated real estate accounting and asset
management software package to replace its existing applications. A commercial
Windows-based integrated accounting and asset management based application is
being tested and is scheduled to be installed during the third quarter of 1999.
This software has been designed to use four digits to define a year. Because
CPA(R):12's primary operations consist of investing in and receiving rents on
long-term net leases of real estate, while the failure of the Advisor and its
affiliates to correct fully Year 2000 issues could disrupt CPA(R):12's
administrative operations, the resulting disruptions would not likely have a
material impact on CPA(R):12's results of operations, financial condition or
liquidity. Contingency plans to address potential disruptions are in the process
of being developed. CPA(R):12's share of costs associated with required
modifications to become Year 2000 compliant is not expected to be material to
CPA(R):12's financial position. CPA(R):12's share of the estimated total cost of
the Year 2000 project is expected to be approximately $105,000, of which $71,000
has been incurred to date.


                                      -9-
<PAGE>   11

            Although CPA(R):12 believes that it will address its internal Year
2000 issues in a timely manner, there is a risk that the inability of
third-party suppliers and lessees to meet Year 2000 readiness issues could have
an adverse impact on CPA(R):12 . CPA(R):12 and its affiliates have identified
their critical suppliers and are requiring that these suppliers communicate
their plans and progress in addressing Year 2000 readiness. The most critical
processes provided by third-party suppliers are CPA(R):12's bank and transfer
agent. CPA(R):12's operations may be significantly affected if such providers
are ineffective or untimely in addressing Year 2000 issues.

            CPA(R):12 contacted each of its lessees regarding Year 2000
readiness and has emphasized the need to address Year 2000 issues. Generally,
lessees are contractually required to maintain their leased properties in good
working order and to make necessary alterations, foreseen or unforeseen, to meet
their contractual obligations. Because of those obligations, CPA(R):12 believes
that the risks and costs of upgrading systems related to operations of the
buildings and that contain technology affected by Year 2000 issues will
generally be absorbed by lessees rather than CPA(R):12. The major risk to
CPA(R):12 is that Year 2000 issues have such an adverse effect on the financial
condition of a lessee that its ability to meet its lease obligations, including
the timely payment of rent, is impaired. In such an event, CPA(R):12 may
ultimately incur the costs for Year 2000 readiness at the affected properties.
The potential materiality of any impact is not known at this time.

We Depend on Key Personnel for Our Future Success

      We depend on the efforts of the executive officers and key employees of
Carey Property Advisors. The loss of the services of these executive officers
and key employees could have a material adverse effect on our operations.

      The risk factors may have affected, and in the future could affect, our
actual operating and financial results and could cause such results to differ
materially from those in any forward-looking statements. You should not consider
this list exhaustive. New risk factors emerge periodically, and we cannot
completely assure you that the factors we describe above list all material risks
to CPA(R):12 at any specific point in time. We have disclosed many of the
important risk factors discussed above in our previous filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk:

            Approximately $81,675,000 of the Company's long-term debt bears
interest at fixed rates, and therefore the fair value of these instruments is
affected by changes in the market interest rates. The following table presents
principal cash flows based upon expected maturity dates of the debt obligations
and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for
the fixed rate debt. The interest rate on the variable rate debt as of December
31, 1998 ranged from LIBOR and 1.97% to the lender's prime rate and 2%.

            CPA(R):12 was formed in 1993 for the purpose of engaging in the
business of investing in and owning commercial and industrial real estate. In
February 1994, CPA(R):12 commenced a public offering of common stock at $10 per
share on a "best efforts" basis. A second public offering of common stock at $10
per share on a "best efforts" basis concluded in September 1997. Through these
offerings, CPA(R):12 issued 28,334,451 shares of common stock raising
$283,344,510.

            CPA(R):12 is using the proceeds from the public offerings along with
limited recourse mortgage financing to purchase properties and enter into
long-term net leases with corporate tenants. A majority of CPA(R):12's net
leases have been structured to place certain economic burdens of ownership on
these corporate tenants by requiring them to pay the costs of maintenance and
repair, insurance and real estate taxes. The leases have generally been
structured to include periodic rent increases that are stated or based on
increases in the consumer price index or, for retail properties, provide for
additional rents based on sales in excess of a specified base amount.

            CPA(R):12's primary objectives are to provide rising cash flow and
property values, protecting its investors from the effects of inflation through
rent escalation provisions, property appreciation, tenant credit improvement and
regular paydown of limited recourse mortgage debt. In addition, CPA(R):12 has
successfully negotiated grants of common stock warrants from selected tenants
and expects to realize the benefits of appreciation from those grants. CPA(R):12
cannot guarantee that its objectives will be ultimately realized.

            The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information", which is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. This statement requires that a public
business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its
reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an
enterprise about which financial information is available that is evaluated
regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate
resources and in assessing performance. Management evaluates the performance of
its portfolio of properties as a whole, rather than by identifying discrete
operating segments. This evaluation includes assessing CPA(R):12's ability to
meet distribution objectives, increase the dividend and increase value by
evaluating potential investments in single tenant net lease real estate and by
seeking opportunities such as refinancing mortgage debt at lower rates of
interest, restructuring leases or paying off lenders at a discount to the face
value of the outstanding mortgage balance.

Financial Condition

            One of CPA(R):12's objectives is to use its cash flow from
operations to meet operating expenses, service its mortgage debt, maintain
adequate cash reserves and fund an increasing rate of dividends to shareholders.
Cash flow from operations of $21,781,000 was not sufficient to fully pay
dividends of $23,028,000. CPA(R):12 believes that prudent investment in net
lease real estate requires a discipline that does not always allow for
investment of new funds in real estate as soon as new capital is received. As a
result, CPA(R):12 still had $34,957,000 available for investment as of December
31, 1998. Cash flow from operations was affected by higher cash balances; cash
flow will increase as the cash balance is reduced and deployed in higher
yielding real estate investments. CPA(R):12 also used $59,826,000 in 1998 to
fund several build-to-suit projects that are still under construction. The
leases on build-to-suit transactions generally require the tenant to provide a
return to CPA(R):12 based on the funds advanced. Generally accepted accounting
principles require, however, that any return received by an owner-lessor during
a construction period be 


                                      -2-
<PAGE>   34

recorded as a reduction of an investment rather than rental income. As a result,
construction period rents received totalling $818,000 in 1998 were not recorded
in income nor included in cash flow from operations.

            CPA(R):12 used $79,286,000 in 1998 for new real estate purchases,
including using $8,471,000 to purchase an interest in an equity investment owned
with two affiliates, and $59,826,000 for several build-to suit commitments that
are still under construction. Remaining commitments on properties under
construction are approximately $25,918,000 with all such existing projects
expected to be completed during 1999. After completion, revenues and cash flow
from these projects will be included in operations. CPA(R):12 has devoted a
substantial portion of its resources to build-to-suit projects as it has
concluded that these types of investments should provide a return on investment
that's superior to that of many other opportunities being evaluated by the
Advisor's acquisition team.

            In addition to the payment of dividends and payment of mortgage
principal on scheduled debt service installments, CPA(R):12's financing
activities included (a) paying off an existing mortgage loan on the Etec
Systems, Inc. property and (b) obtaining $30,500,000 of limited recourse
mortgages on unleveraged properties. CPA(R):12's financing strategy is to
leverage substantially all of its properties with limited recourse mortgages so
that the portfolio will be diversified to limit risk. A lender on a limited
recourse mortgage loan has recourse only to the property collateralizing such
debt and not to any of CPA(R):12's other assets. CPA(R):12 received $26,970,000
from Corporate Property Associates 14 Incorporated ("CPA(R):14") toward its
participation in the Etec property. CPA(R):14 will ultimately be reimbursed at
least $15,000,000 of its advances when the new building is completed and the
$30,000,000 of mortgage financing is received. Completion of the project is
scheduled for the second quarter of 1999. CPA(R):12 is in the process of
negotiating a $40,000,000 credit facility that will be used to fund acquisitions
on a transitional basis. There is no assurance, however that the credit facility
agreement will be completed.

            In June 1998, the shareholders of CPA(R):12 approved a proposal to
amend CPA(R):12's Advisory Agreement to allow CPA(R):12, with the consent of the
Advisor, to pay asset management and performance fees in common stock rather
than cash. As a result of this amendment to the Advisory Agreement, CPA(R):12
was able to convert a liability of $3,394,000 for unpaid performance fees to
equity (339,410 shares), which had voluntarily been deferred by the Advisor. An
additional 43,865 shares ($438,650) were issued in 1998 in satisfaction of
current year performance fees. By issuing shares rather than paying fees in
cash, CPA(R):12's liquidity has been enhanced. The issuance of shares to pay
fees increases the cash available to CPA(R):12 to pay expenses, strengthens
CPA(R):12's balance sheet and increases the equity ownership of the Advisor with
the effect of aligning more strongly the interests of the Advisor and
shareholders of the company. With such issuance, the Advisor's ownership in
CPA(R):12 has increased to more than 1%.

            In connection with the purchase of its properties, CPA(R):12
requires sellers of such properties to perform environmental reviews. Management
believes, based on the results of such reviews, that CPA(R):12's properties were
in substantial compliance with Federal and state environmental statutes at the
time the properties were acquired. Tenants are generally subject to
environmental statutes and regulations regarding the discharge of hazardous
materials and any related remediation obligations. In addition, CPA(R):12's
leases generally require tenants to indemnify CPA(R):12 from all liabilities and
losses related to the leased properties with provisions of such indemnification
specifically addressing environmental matters. The leases generally include
provisions that allow for periodic environmental assessments, paid for by the
tenant, and allow CPA(R):12 to extend leases until such time as a tenant has
satisfied its environmental obligations. CPA(R):12 also attempts to negotiate
lease provisions to require financial assurances from tenants such as
performance bonds or letters of credit if the costs of remediating environmental
conditions are, in the estimation of CPA(R):12, are in excess of specified
amounts. Accordingly, management believes that the ultimate resolution of any
environmental matters would not have a material adverse effect on CPA(R):12's
financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

            The "Year 2000 issue" refers to the series of problems that have
resulted or may result from the inability of certain computer software and
embedded processes to properly process dates. This shortcoming could result in
the failure of major systems or miscalculations causing major disruptions to
business operations. CPA(R):12 has no computer systems of its own, but is
dependent upon the systems maintained by an affiliate of its Advisor and certain
other third parties including its banks and transfer agent.

            CPA(R):12 and its affiliates are actively evaluating their readiness
relating to the Year 2000 issue. In 1998, CPA(R):12, its Advisor, and affiliates
commenced an assessment of their local area network of personal computers and
related equipment and are in the process of replacing or upgrading the equipment


                                      -3-
<PAGE>   35

that has been identified as not being Year 2000 compliant. The program is
expected to be substantially completed in the second quarter of 1999. CPA(R):12
and its affiliates have also engaged outside consultants experienced in
diagnosing systems and software applications and addressing Year 2000 issues,
and with the help of these consultants currently are remediating as necessary.

            At the same time, CPA(R):12, its Advisor, and affiliates are
evaluating their applications software, all of which are commercial "off the
shelf" programs that have not been customized. During 1998, CPA(R):12 commenced
a project to select a comprehensive integrated real estate accounting and asset
management software package to replace its existing applications. A commercial
Windows-based integrated accounting and asset management based application is
being tested and is scheduled to be installed during the third quarter of 1999.
This software has been designed to use four digits to define a year. Because
CPA(R):12's primary operations consist of investing in and receiving rents on
long-term net leases of real estate, while the failure of the Advisor and its
affiliates to correct fully Year 2000 issues could disrupt its administrative
operations, the resulting disruptions would not likely have a material impact on
CPA(R):12's results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. Contingency
plans to address potential disruptions are in the process of being developed.
CPA(R):12's share of costs associated with required modifications to become Year
2000 compliant is not expected to be material to CPA(R):12's financial position.
CPA(R):12's share of the estimated total cost of the Year 2000 project is
expected to be approximately $105,000, of which $71,000 has been incurred to
date.

            Although CPA(R):12 believes that it will address its internal Year
2000 issues in a timely manner, there is a risk that the inability of
third-party suppliers and lessees to meet Year 2000 readiness issues could have
an adverse impact on CPA(R):12. CPA(R):12 and its affiliates have identified
their critical suppliers and are requiring that these suppliers communicate
their plans and progress in addressing Year 2000 readiness. The most critical
processes provided by third-party suppliers are CPA(R):12 bank and transfer
agent. CPA(R):12's operations may be significantly affected if such providers
are ineffective or untimely in addressing Year 2000 issues.

            CPA(R):12 contacted each of its lessees regarding Year 2000
readiness and has emphasized the need to address Year 2000 issues. Generally,
lessees are contractually required to maintain their leased properties in good
working order and to make necessary alterations, foreseen or unforeseen, to meet
their contractual obligations. Because of those obligations, CPA(R):12 believes
that the risks and costs of upgrading systems related to operations of the
buildings and that contain technology affected by Year 2000 issues will
generally be absorbed by lessees rather than CPA(R):12. The major risk to
CPA(R):12 is that Year 2000 issues have such an adverse effect on the financial
condition of a lessee that its ability to meet its lease obligations, including
the timely payment of rent, is impaired. In such an event, CPA(R):12 may
ultimately incur the costs for Year 2000 readiness at the affected properties.
The potential materiality of any impact is not known at this time.

Results of Operations:

            Net income for 1998 decreased by $1,105,000 as compared with 1997
because of two nonrecurring items that reduced 1998 income by $4,660,000, namely
an extraordinary charge on extinguishment of debt resulting from a prepayment
charge of $379,000 and the writedown of a property to fair value resulting in a
noncash charge of $4,281,000. Income, as adjusted for these items, would have
reflected an increase of $3,555,000.

            The increase in income as adjusted was entirely due to increased
revenues, and, for the most part, reflects the increase in lease revenues
(rental income and interest income from direct financing leases) which included
a full year of rent in 1998 from twelve leases that CPA(R):12 entered into in
1997, rents from three build-to-suit projects completed in 1998 and two new
leases in 1998. CPA(R):12 also had rent increases on three leases in 1998. On an
annualized basis, such rent increases total $112,000 (of which $37,000 was
reflected in 1998 lease revenue). CPA(R):12's leases usually provide for rent
increases with intervals ranging between one and five years per increase. The
number of rent increases from the existing portfolios of properties can be
expected to increase over the next several years.

            The increase in income resulting from the increase in lease revenues
was partially offset by increases in interest, depreciation, property and
general administrative expenses. The increases in interest and depreciation
expenses were due to the increase in limited recourse mortgage loan balances and
real estate asset balances, respectively. The increase in property expense was
also due to the increase in real 


                                      -4-
<PAGE>   36

estate assets as the asset management and performances fees payable to the
Advisor are directly based on the historical cost of properties. The increase in
general and administrative expense was due solely to the accrual of a monitoring
fee payable to the sellers of the Company's common stock in accordance with
CPA(R):12's Prospectus.

            In 2000, the asset management and performance fees will be based on
an independent valuation of the properties as of December 31, 1999. The fees are
expected to increase because CPA(R):12 believes there has been appreciation in
the value of its properties. The extent of any increase in value, however,
cannot be determined until the valuation is performed. Since December 31, 1998,
CPA(R):12 has purchased a 50% interest in a limited liability company with the
remaining 50% interest owned by an affiliate. The limited liability company
entered into a sale-leaseback with Intesys Technologies, Inc. This equity
investment will provide annual cash flow of $1,137,000 until a limited recourse
mortgage is placed on the property. CPA(R):12's share of proceeds from a
mortgage will be used to fund additional real estate investments. In addition,
CPA(R):12 and two affiliates, each with one-third interests, purchased the
headquarters of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. in Sunnyvale, California in
December 1998 and entered into a net lease with AMD. CPA(R):12's share of annual
cash flow (rental less mortgage debt service) from the AMD investment will be
approximately $1,066,000. Accordingly, income and the related cash flow from
equity investments will increase substantially in 1999. Rent increases on two
leases each owned as equity investments are scheduled in 1999 and 2001. Several
build-to-suit projects are scheduled to be completed in 1999 including
properties leased to Randall International, Inc., BCC Development and Management
Co. (Balanced Care Corporation), International Management Consultant, Inc. and
expansion at the Career Education Corporation and Marconi Integrated Systems,
Inc. properties. After the completion of these projects, CPA(R):12 will
recognize the rents on these properties as current income, at which time cash
flow from operations is expected to fund fully dividends to shareholders.

            Other interest income decreased during the year as cash balances
decreased. This decrease was expected as CPA(R):12 was using its cash balances
for additional real estate purchases. This trend of decrease should continue as
an objective of CPA(R):12 is to hold cash balances sufficient for a working
capital reserve.

            During 1998, CPA(R):12 recognized a noncash charge of $4,281,000 for
the writedown of a property leased to Lanxide Corporation to its expected fair
value as Lanxide has vacated the property and CPA(R):12 expects Lanxide to
terminate the lease in connection with its bankruptcy petition. The Lanxide
lease was structured so that the leases of three subtenants would be assumed by
CPA(R):12 if Lanxide did not meet its lease obligations. With the expected lease
termination, annual rental income from the Lanxide property will decrease by
$445,000. The initial terms of the subleases expire in 2000 through 2001.

            Results of operations for 1997 are not directly comparable to the
results for 1996, as the purchase of properties and the growth of CPA(R):12's
asset base continued throughout 1997. Directly owned real estate assets (before
accumulated depreciation) increased from $125,846,000 at December 31, 1996 to
$267,981,000 at December 31, 1997. Increases in lease revenues, equity income,
interest and general and administrative expenses, property expenses,
depreciation and amortization were primarily due to the increases in real estate
assets and related mortgage borrowings. The increase in other interest income
was due to the increase in cash balances, as a substantial amount of capital was
raised in 1997 prior to the end of CPA(R):12's stock offering in September 1997.

            Because of the long-term nature of CPA(R):12's net leases, inflation
and changing prices have not unfavorably affected CPA(R):12's revenues and net
income. CPA(R):12's net leases have rent increases based on formulas indexed to
increase in the Consumer Price Index, sales overrides or other periodic
increases which are designed to increase lease revenues in the future.

            In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities.
It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999. CPA(R):12 believes adoption of SFAS No. 133 will
not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

                  CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 12 INCORPORATED
                                and SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

      Basis of Consolidation:

        The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Corporate
          Property Associates 12 Incorporated, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and
          a controlling interest in a limited liability company (collectively,
          the "Company"). All material inter-entity transactions have been
          eliminated.

      Use of 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 assets and
          liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
          date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
          and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant
          estimates relate to the assessment of the recoverability of real
          estate assets and investments. Actual results could differ from those
          estimates.

      Real Estate Leased to Others:

        Real estate is leased to others on a net lease basis, whereby the tenant
          is generally responsible for all operating expenses relating to the
          property, including property taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs,
          renewals and improvements.

        The Company diversifies its real estate investments among various
          corporate tenants engaged in different industries and by property type
          throughout the United States.

        The leases are accounted for under either the direct financing or
          operating methods as described below.

            Direct financing method - Leases accounted for under the direct
            financing method are recorded at their net investment (Note 5).
            Unearned income is deferred and amortized to income over the lease
            terms so as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the
            Company's net investment in the lease.

            Operating method - Real estate is recorded at cost, rental revenue
            is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases,
            and expenses (including depreciation) are charged to operations as
            incurred.

        For properties under construction, interest on mortgages is capitalized
          rather than expensed and rentals received are recorded as a reduction
          of capitalized project (i.e., construction) costs.

        Substantially all of the Company's leases provide for either scheduled
          rent increases, periodic rent increases based on formulas indexed to
          increases in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") or sales overrides.

        The Company assesses the recoverability of its real estate assets,
          including residual interests, based on projections of undiscounted
          cash flows over the life of such assets. In the event that such cash
          flows are insufficient, the assets are adjusted to their estimated
          fair value.

      Depreciation:

        Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the
          estimated useful lives of properties - generally 40 years.

      Cash  Equivalents:

        The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments that are
          both readily convertible to cash and have a maturity of generally
          three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
          Items classified as cash equivalents include commercial paper and
          money market

      equivalents were held in the custody of two financial institutions, and
      which balances at times exceed federally insurable limits. The Company
      mitigates this risk by depositing funds with major financial institutions.

      Offering Costs:

        Costs incurred in connection with the raising of capital through the
          sale of common stock are charged to shareholders' equity upon the
          issuance of shares.

      Equity Investments:

        The Company's interests in general partnerships and limited liability
          companies in which its ownership interests range from 37% to 50%, are
          accounted for under the equity method, i.e. at cost, increased or
          decreased by the Company's share of earnings or losses, less
          distributions.

      Marketable Equity Securities:

        The Company's marketable equity securities, which consist of 68,261
          shares of common stock of Etec Systems, Inc. ("Etec"), are classified
          as available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value with
          the Company's interest in unrealized gains and losses on these
          securities reported as a separate component of shareholder's equity
          (accumulated other comprehensive income) until realized. As of
          December 31, 1998, fair value of the Etec common stock was $2,607,571.

          books at a nominal cost.

      Other Assets:

        Included in other assets are deferred charges and deferred rental
          income. Deferred charges are costs incurred in connection with
          mortgage financings and refinancing and are amortized over the terms
          of the mortgages. Deferred rental income is the aggregate difference
          for operating leases between scheduled rents which vary during the
          lease term and rent recognized on a straight-line basis.

        Fees are payable for services provided by Carey Property Advisors, a
          Pennsylvania limited partnership (the "Advisor") to the Company
          relating to the identification, evaluation, negotiation, financing and
          purchase of properties. A portion of such fees are deferred and are
          payable in annual installments with each installment equal to .25% of
          the purchase price of the properties over no less than eight years
          following the first anniversary of the date a property was purchased.
          Payment of such fees is subject to the 2%/25% Guidelines (see Note 3).

      Earnings Per Share:

        The Company has a simple equity capital structure with only common stock
          outstanding. As a result, the Company has presented basic per-share
          amounts only for all periods presented in the accompanying
          consolidated financial statements.

          guidelines for defining the operating segment of an enterprise. Based
          on the definition of an operating segment in SFAS No. 131, the Company
          has concluded that it engages in a single operating segment.

2. Organization and Offering:

        The Company was formed on July 30, 1993 for the purpose of engaging in
          the business of investing in and owning industrial and commercial real
          estate. Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the business
          of the Company is managed by the Advisor. The Advisor will be entitled
          to certain incentive fees in the event of the liquidation of the
          Company, subject to certain conditions.

        An initial offering of the Company's shares which commenced on February
          18, 1994 concluded on January 26, 1996, at which time the Company had
          issued an aggregate of 8,135,992 shares ($81,359,920). The Company
          filed a post-effective amendment in March 1996, withdrawing from
          registration the balance of unsold shares from such offering. On
          February 2, 1996, the Company commenced an offering (the " Second
          Offering") for a maximum of 20,000,000 shares of common stock. The
          shares were offered to the public on a "best efforts" basis at a price
          of $10 per share. On August 22, 1997, the Company registered an
          additional 300,000 shares under the Second Offering. The Second
          Offering was concluded on September 18, 1997, at which time 20,198,459
          ($201,984,590) shares were issued.

        In connection with performing services relating to the Company's real
          estate purchases, affiliates of the Company received acquisition fees
          of $513,847, $862,415 and $724,763 in 1996, 1997 and 1998,
          respectively.

3. Transactions with Related Parties:

        The Company's asset management and performance fees are each 1/2 of 1%
          of Average Invested Assets, as defined in the Prospectus of the
          Company. Asset management fees were $631,051, $1,202,124 and
          $1,751,817 in 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively, with performance fees
          in like amount. General and administrative expense reimbursements
          consist primarily of the actual cost of personnel needed to provide
          administrative services necessary to the operation of the Company.
          General and administrative expense reimbursements were $747,779,
          $1,121,018 and $560,957 in 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively.

              NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued

        In June 1998, the Company's shareholders approved a proposal to allow
          the Company, subject to the Advisor's consent, to pay fees to the
          Advisor in Company common stock rather than cash. Since the approval,
          the Company has issued 383,275 shares of common stock to the Advisor
          in settlement of accrued performance fees of $3,832,750. The
          collection of a portion of the performance fees had previously been
          voluntarily deferred by the Advisor. The stock is subject to certain
          restrictions and will vest ratably over a five year period. The
          Advisor receives dividends on its restricted shares and has the rights
          to vote its shares currently. For purposes of determining the number
          of shares to be issued, the Company used the $10.00 per share price
          used in connection with its sale of common stock. The Company has been
          notified by the Advisor that it has elected to receive restricted
          stock for the performance fee in 1999. The shares will be based on a
          share price of $10 until an independent valuation of the Company's
          assets is performed. Pursuant to the Prospectus of the Company, an
          independent appraisal of the fair value of the Company's assets is
          required annually, beginning as of December 31, 1999. Determination of
          a per share value for any shares issued after that date will be based
          on the appraised fair value per share as of the end of the prior year.

        Pursuant to its advisory agreement, the Advisor performs certain
          services for the Company including the identification, evaluation,
          negotiation, purchase and disposition of property and the day-to-day
          administration and management of the Company. The Advisor and certain
          affiliates receive fees and compensation in connection with the
          Offering and the operation of the Company, including reimbursement for
          organization and offering expenses, acquisition and structuring fees,
          reimbursement for expenses incurred by the Advisor in connection with
          the administration of the Company, asset management and performance
          fees, and loan refinancing fees, and may ultimately receive
          subordinated disposition fees, that are dependent on the Company's
          performance. In connection with performing services related to the
          Company's real estate purchases in 1996, 1997 and 1998, affiliates of
          the Company received structuring and development fees of $1,284,619,
          $2,156,038 and $1,811,907, respectively. Fees are paid only in
          connection with completed transactions. The affiliate is entitled to
          receive deferred acquisition fees of $8,876,292 as of December 31,
          1998 over a period of no less than eight years, subject to the 2%/25%
          Guidelines limitation described below. A portion of such deferred
          acquisition fees have been paid since December 31, 1998.

        The Company's interests in properties jointly held with affiliated
          entities range from 27.38% to 50% with such interests held as
          tenants-in-common and through ownership interests in general
          partnerships and limited liability companies. The Company accounts for
          its undivided interest in assets and liabilities relating to
          tenants-in-common interests on a proportional basis. Ownership
          interests in general partnerships and a limited liability company,
          owned with an affiliate, are accounted for under the equity method
          when such ownership interest is 50% or less.

        The Advisor must reimburse the Company at least annually for the amount
          by which operating expenses of the Company exceed the 2%/25%
          Guidelines (the greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of Net
          Income) as defined in the Prospectus. If in any year when the
          operating expenses of the Company exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines, the
          Advisor will have an obligation to reimburse the Company for such
          excess, subject to certain conditions. If the Independent Directors
          find that such expenses were justified based on any unusual and
          nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient, the Advisor may be
          reimbursed in future years for the full amount or any portion of such
          excess expenses, but only to the extent such reimbursement would not
          cause the Company's operating expenses to exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines
          in any such year.

          terms of the agreement, the Company's share of rental, occupancy and
          leasehold improvement costs is based on adjusted gross revenues, as
          defined. Expenses incurred in 1996, 1997 and 1998 were $26,851,

9.  Equity Investments:

        The Company holds a 37% interest in BB Property Company ("BB Property"),
          a general partnership which net leases 17 retail stores to Best Buy
          Co., Inc., a 50% interest in Gena Property Company ("Gena"), a general
          partnership that net leases two office buildings to Gensia, Inc., a
          50% interest in Cards Limited Liability Company ("Cards LLC"), which
          net leases two office buildings to The Upper Deck Company and a 33
          1/3% interest in Delaware Chip LLC ("Chip"), a limited liability
          company which owns land and a building in Sunnyvale, California, net
          leased to Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. ("AMD"). The interest in Chip
          was purchased in December 1998 and is described below.

        On December 22, 1998, the Company and two affiliates, Carey
          Institutional Properties Incorporated ("CIP(R)") and Corporate
          Property Associates 14 Incorporated ("CPA(R):14"), purchased land and
          a building in Sunnyvale, California and entered into a net lease
          agreement with AMD. The purchase price of the property was $95,287,958
          of which $68,250,000 was financed by limited recourse debt. The
          Company, CIP(R) and CPA(R):14, each own a 33 1/3% interest in Chip.

        The AMD lease provides for an initial lease term of twenty years through
          December 2018 with two ten-year renewal terms at AMD's option. Annual
          rent is $9,145,500, with rent increases every three years based on a
          formula indexed to increases in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). The
          $68,250,000 limited recourse mortgage loan is collateralized by a deed
          of trust on the property and an assignment of the lease. The loan
          bears interest at an annual interest rate of 7.78% with monthly
          principal and interest payments based on a 30-year amortization
          schedule. The loan matures in January 2009, when a balloon payment
          will be due.

10. Writedown to Fair Value:

        In March 1996, the Company entered into a direct financing lease for a
          property in Newark, Delaware with Lanxide Corporation ("Lanxide") that
          was purchased for $8,679,000. The Company financed the purchase with
          $4,400,000 from two limited recourse mortgages. In January 1998,
          Lanxide filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition and is in the process of
          liquidating. Lanxide subsequently vacated the property.

        The Lanxide lease was structured to provide the Company the rights of
          assignment on subleases with three Lanxide subsidiaries. During 1998,
          Lanxide sold the subsidiaries. As result of Lanxide's difficulties,
          the Company has assumed the leases. The initial terms of the leases
          expire in 2000 and 2001. Annual rent from the three subleases is
          $584,393.

        Annual rent under the Lanxide lease was $1,030,000. Based on the
          Company's expectation that future cash flow from the properties will
          be reduced, Management concluded that there had been an impairment of
          the value to the property. Based on a writedown of the Company's
          interest in the property to an estimated fair value of $4,398,000, the
          Company incurred a noncash charge of $4,281,421.

        The Company remains current on its debt service payments under the
          $4,000,000 limited recourse first priority loan which matures in March
          2001 and has an outstanding balance of $3,693,000 as of December 31,
          1998.

11. Extraordinary Charge on Extinguishment of Debt:

        In February 1995, the Company purchased land and buildings in Hayward,
          California for $11,860,000 and entered into a net lease with Etec
          Systems, Inc. ("Etec"). In August 1996, the Company entered into a
          commitment to construct an additional building at the Etec property,
          and in January 1997, the Company completed construction of the
          building for $5,241,000.

        In February 1998, the Company entered into a series of transactions
          including paying off the existing limited recourse mortgage loan on
          the Etec property, funding additional improvements at the Etec
          property of approximately $11,518,000, entering into a commitment and
          construction agency agreement to fund additional improvements of up to
          $52,356,000, amending the existing lease with Etec and transferring
          ownership of the Etec property to a limited liability company in which
          CPA(R):14 has an ownership interest. At that time, the Company paid
          off the $7,957,947 existing limited recourse mortgage loan
          collateralized by the Etec property. In connection with paying off the
          loan, the Company incurred a prepayment charge of $379,246 which has
          been recorded in 1998 as an extraordinary charge on the extinguishment
          of debt. Under the limited liability company agreement, CPA(R):14 will
          have a 49.99% interest in the additional improvements and will not
          share in the economic benefits from the existing buildings. The
          Company has releveraged the existing property with $15,000,000 of
          limited recourse mortgage financing and has received a commitment of
          $30,000,000 of financing for the additional improvements.

12. Subsequent Event:

        On February 3, 1999, the Company and CPA(R):14, each acquired 50%
          ownership interests in a newly formed limited liability company, and
          purchased land and a building in Gilbert, Arizona for $23,560,000 and
          entered into a net lease with Intesys Technologies, Inc. ("Intesys").

        The Intesys lease has an initial term of twenty years with two ten-year
          renewal terms at the option of Intesys. The lease provides for annual
          rent payments of $2,274,750 with rent increases every three years
          based on a formula indexed to the increase in the CPI, with any single
          increase capped at 9%.

13. Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

        The carrying amounts of cash, receivables and accounts payable and
          accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity
          of these items.

        The Company estimates that the fair value of mortgage notes payable
          approximates the carrying value of such mortgage notes at December 31,
          1997 and was approximately $109,681,000 at December 31, 1998. The fair
          value of the mortgage notes payable was evaluated using a cash flow
          model with a discount rate that takes into account the credit of the
          tenant and interest rate risk.

        In conjunction with executing a number of its leases, the Company was
          granted warrants to purchase common stock of the lessee or lease
          guarantor. To the extent that the lessee is not a publicly traded
          company, the warrants were judged at the time of issuance to be
          speculative in nature and a nominal cost basis is attributed to them.
          The Company believes it is not practicable to estimate the fair value
          of its stock warrants for closely-held companies. For publicly traded
          companies, fair value represents the amount by which quoted market
          value of common stock exceeds the exercise price at December 31, 1998.
          The Company has warrants to purchase, (a) 150,000 shares of Vermont
          Teddy Bear Co., Inc. ("Vermont Teddy Bear") common stock, (b) 100,000
          shares of QMS common stock and (c) 464,260 shares of Rheometric
          Scientific, Inc. ("Rheometric") common stock, all of which have
          publicly traded common stock. There is no market for the stock
          warrants of these companies. As of December 31, 1998, the exercise
          price of the QMS and Rheometric warrants was in excess of the quoted
          value for their common stock.

14. Accounting Pronouncement:

        In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
          Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 133 establishes
          accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
          including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts
          and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all
          derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of
          financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS
          No. 133 is effective for all quarters of fiscal years beginning after
          June 15, 1999. The Company believes that SFAS No. 133 will not have a
          material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
