Dear Fellow Shareholder:                                             May 1, 2000

We have sent you two prior letters introducing ourselves and outlining our
problems with the current board and management of Malan Realty Investors, Inc.
While many shareholders like you agree that Malan needs new leadership, several
have asked us, "Why will Kensington be better for the investors in Malan?"

Answering this is challenging. First, because it is hard to tell you all about
Kensington in the space of a short letter. Secondly, because the management of
Malan has sent you a tremendous amount of statistics which allege they are doing
a good job and make false allegations about Kensington.

Ultimately, we hope you will focus on two simple facts in making your decision.

- -  Actions speak louder than words:  Management and the board's actions are
   clearly hostile to shareholders. They have enriched and entrenched themselves
   while the stock has declined. They also have engaged in questionable business
   practices. They even intentionally sent incomplete and misleading proxy
   materials that may have caused you to unwittingly give them your vote.

- -  Kensington's only priority is shareholder value:  Like you, we and our
   clients are simply investors in Malan Realty. Kensington manages mutual funds
   and retirement plans. We and our families have significant personal
   investments alongside our clients in these funds. We want to protect this
   investment from price deterioration, self-interested management, and a poorly
   qualified board. There is no conflict between what is good for you as
   shareholders and what is good for us.

I founded Kensington with a focus on investors and I believe you have to add
value when managing other people's money. This is one of those times I'm proving
to investors just like you that I really mean what I say. Let me share with you
that a proxy contest is not fun. It is time consuming and expensive. But the
problems at Malan Realty are so serious that we must act to protect our mutual
investment.

I ask for your support. Please sign, date and return the GOLD proxy card today.

Very truly yours,

John Kramer
President
