Company, as lessor, entered into long-term lease agreements with unaffiliated
lessees. The general terms of the lease agreements are described in the section
of the Prospectus entitled "Business Description of Property Leases." For the
Properties that are to be constructed or renovated, the Company has entered into
development and indemnification and put agreements with the lessees. The general
terms of these agreements are described in the section of the Prospectus
entitled "Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties - Construction
and Renovation."

         The purchase price for the Shoney's Property in Las Vegas, Nevada, and
the T.G.I. Friday's Property in Superstition Springs, Arizona, includes
development fees of $73,191 and $17,500, respectively, to an Affiliate of the
Advisor for services provided in connection with the development of the
Properties. The Company considers development fees, to the extent that they are
paid to Affiliates, to be Acquisition Fees. Such development fees must be
approved by a majority of the Directors (including a majority of the Independent
Directors) not otherwise interested in such transactions, subject to a
determination that such transactions are fair and reasonable to the Company and
on terms and conditions not less favorable to the Company than those available
from unaffiliated third parties and not less favorable than those available from
the Advisor or its Affiliates in transactions with unaffiliated third parties.
See the sections of the Prospectus entitled "Management Compensation" and
"Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties."

         In connection with the Tumbleweed Southwest Mesquite Grill & Bar
Property in Hendersonville, Tennessee, which is building only, the Company, as
lessor, entered into a long-term lease agreement with an unaffiliated lessee.
The general terms of the lease agreement are described in the section of the
Prospectus entitled "Business - Description of Property Leases." In connection
with the purchase of this Property, which is to be renovated, the Company has
entered into development and indemnification and put agreements with the lessee.
The general terms of these agreements are described in the section of the
Prospectus entitled "Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties -
Construction and Renovation." In connection with this acquisition, the Company
has also entered into a tri-party agreement with the lessee and the owner of the
land. The tri-party agreement provides that the ground lessee is responsible for
all obligations under the ground lease and provides certain rights to the
Company relating to the maintenance of its interest in the building in the event
of a default by the lessee under the terms of the ground lease.

         The following table sets forth the location of the 29 Properties,
including 28 Properties consisting of land and building and one Property
consisting of building only, acquired by the Company, from July 3, 1997 through

PENDING INVESTMENTS

         As of September 17, 1997, the Company had initial commitments to
acquire 36 properties, including 23 properties consisting of land and building
and 13 properties consisting of building only. The acquisition of each of these
properties is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions, including, but
not limited to, a satisfactory environmental survey and property appraisal.
There can be no assurance that any or all of the conditions will be satisfied
or, if satisfied, that one or more of these properties will be acquired by the
Company. If acquired, the leases of all 36 of these properties are expected to
be entered into on substantially the same terms described in the section of the
Prospectus entitled "Business - Description of Property Leases."

         In connection with four of the Black-eyed Pea properties, three of
which are located in Phoenix and one of which is located in Tucson, Arizona, and
the IHOP property in Saugus, Massachusetts, the Company anticipates owning only
the buildings and not the underlying land. However, the Company anticipates
entering into landlord estoppel agreements with the landlords of the land and
collateral assignments of the ground leases with the lessees in order to provide
the Company with certain rights with respect to the land on which the buildings
are located.

         In connection with the On The Border property in San Antonio, Texas,
and seven of the Black-eyed Pea properties, two of which are located in
Albuquerque, New Mexico, and one of which is located in each of Dallas, Houston,
and Waco, Texas; Forestville, Maryland; and Wichita, Kansas; the Company
anticipates owning only the building and not the underlying land. However, the
Company anticipates entering into a tri- party agreement with the lessee and the
landlord of the land in order to provide the Company with certain rights with
respect to the land on which the building is located.

         Set forth below are summarized terms expected to apply to the leases
for each of the properties. More detailed information relating to a property and
its related lease will be provided at such time, if any, as the property is
acquired.

         incurred under the development agreement.

(2)      In the event the Company purchases the property directly from the
         lessee, the lessee will have no option to purchase the property.

(3)      The Company anticipates owning the building only for this property. The
         Company will not own the underlying land; although, the Company
         anticipates entering into a tri-party agreement with the lessee and the
         landlord of the land in order to provide the Company with certain
         rights with respect to the land on which the building is located.

(4)      The lease term shall expire upon the earlier of (i) the date 15 years
         from the date of closing, (ii) the expiration of the original term of
         the ground lease, or (iii) the earlier termination of the ground lease.

(5)      Base rent shall increase after every five years during the lease term
         by the lesser of (i) 10% of the minimum base rent during the preceding
         year or (ii) 150% of the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index.

(6)      The Company anticipates owning the building only for this property. The
         Company will not own the underlying land; although, the Company
         anticipates entering into a landlord estoppel agreement with the

         with the lessee in order to provide the Company with certain rights
         with respect to the land on which the building is located.

(7)      The Company anticipates conveying the building to the tenant at the end
         of the lease term for $1.

(8)      The lease term shall expire upon the earlier of (i) the date 20 years
         from the date of closing, (ii) the expiration of the original term of

(9)      For each lease year, percentage rent shall be calculated upon the
         amount by which gross sales exceed a to be determined breakpoint (base
         sales) as follows; 6% for an increase of 0% to 33.33% above base sales,
         5.5% for an increase of 33.34% to 66.7% above base sales, and 5% for an
         increase of 66.8% to 100% above base sales. For increases in gross
         sales in excess of 100%, percentage rent shall decrease by .5% for
         every additional 33.33% increase above base sales.

BORROWING

         On August 20, 1997, the Company's $15 million Loan was amended and
restated to enable the Company to receive advances on a revolving $35,000,000
unsecured line of credit (the "Line of Credit") to purchase and develop
Properties and to fund Mortgage Loans and Secured Equipment Leases. The advances
will bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.65% or the bank's prime rate,
whichever the Company selects at the time of borrowing. Interest only is
repayable monthly until July 31, 1999, at which time all remaining interest and
principal shall be due. The Line of Credit provides for two one-year renewal
options.

         The Company intends to use up to $15 million of the $35 million
available under the Line of Credit, including the approximately $5,139,444
advanced as of September 17, 1997, to fund Secured Equipment Leases. The Company
intends to use up to $20 million of the $35 million available under the Line of
Credit to purchase Properties. Advances used to fund Secured Equipment Leases
will be repaid using payments received from Secured Equipment Leases and will be
refinanced in regard to any Secured Equipment Lease not fully repaid at the end
of the term of the Line of Credit. Advances used to purchase and develop
Properties will be repaid using additional offering proceeds or refinanced on a
long-term basis.

         The Company will not encumber Properties in connection with the Line of
Credit. Management believes that during the offering period the Line of Credit
will allow the Company to make investments in Properties that the Company
otherwise would be forced to delay until it raised a sufficient amount of
proceeds from the sale of Shares to allow the Company to make the investments.
By eliminating this delay the Company will also eliminate the risk that these
investments will no longer be available, or the terms of the investment will be
less favorable, when the Company has raised sufficient offering proceeds.
Alternatively, Affiliates of the Advisor could make such investments, pending
receipt by the Company of sufficient offering proceeds, in order to preserve the
investment opportunities for the Company. However, Properties acquired by the
Company in this manner would be subject to closing costs both on the original
purchase by the Affiliate and on the subsequent purchase by the Company, which
would increase the amount of expenses associated with the acquisition of
Properties and reduce the amount of offering proceeds available for investment
in income-producing assets. Management believes that the use of Line of Credit
by the Company will enable the Company to reduce or eliminate the instances in
which the Company will be required to pay duplicate closing costs.

         The Board of Directors does not anticipate that the Company will borrow
funds, other than the Line of Credit and any additional financing the Board of
Directors may determine to obtain to fund Secured Equipment Leases or to
purchase and develop Properties. The Company may also borrow funds for the
purpose of preserving its status as a REIT. For example, the Company may borrow
to the extent necessary to permit the Company to make Distributions required in
order to enable the Company to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax
purposes; however, the Company will not borrow for the purpose of returning
capital to the stockholders unless necessary to eliminate corporate-level tax to
the Company. Until Listing occurs, the Company will not encumber Properties in
connection with any borrowing. If Listing occurs, however, the Board of
Directors may elect to cause the Company to borrow funds in connection with the
purchase of additional Properties or for other Company purposes and to encumber
any or all of the Company's Properties in connection with any such borrowing.
The aggregate borrowing of the Company, secured and unsecured, shall be
reasonable in relation to Net Assets of the Company and shall be reviewed by the
Board of Directors at least quarterly. The Board of Directors anticipates that
the aggregate amount of any borrowing will not exceed 50% of Real Estate Asset
Value, although the maximum amount of borrowing in relation to Net Assets, in
the absence of a satisfactory showing that a higher level of borrowing is
appropriate, shall not exceed 300% of Net Assets (an amount which the Company
anticipates will correspond to approximately 75% of Real Estate Asset Value).
Any excess in borrowing over such 300% level shall occur only with approval by a
majority of the Independent Directors and will be disclosed and explained to
stockholders in the first quarterly report of the Company prepared after such
approval occurs. Any additional financing obtained to fund Secured Equipment
Leases may not exceed 10% of aggregate gross proceeds of the Company's initial
offering, this offering and any subsequent offering.

FOOTNOTES:

(1)      Base rent does not include percentage rents which become due if
         specified levels of gross receipts are achieved.

(2)      The Properties will be managed pursuant to an advisory agreement
         between the Company and CNL Fund Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor"),
         pursuant to which the Advisor will receive monthly asset management
         fees in an amount equal to one-twelfth of .60% of the Company's Real
         Estate Asset Value as of the end of the preceding month as defined in
         such agreement.  See "Management Compensation."

(3)      Estimated at 6.2% of gross rental income based on the previous
         experience of Affiliates of the Advisor with 17 public limited
         partnerships which own properties similar to those owned by the
         Company. Amount does not include soliciting dealer servicing fee due to
         the fact that such fee will not be incurred until December 31 of the
         year following the year in which the offering terminates.

(4)      The estimated federal tax basis of the depreciable portion (the
         building portion) of each Property has been depreciated on the
         straight-line method over 39 years.

                  PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION


         The following Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet of the Company gives
effect to (i) property acquisition transactions from inception through June 30,
1997, including the receipt of $223,843,177 in gross offering proceeds from the
sale of 22,384,318 shares of common stock and the application of such proceeds
to purchase 174 properties (including 121 properties which consist of land and
building, one property through a joint venture arrangement which consists of
land and building, eight properties which consist of building only and 44
properties which consist of land only), 33 of which were under construction at
June 30, 1997, to provide mortgage financing to the lessees of the 44 properties
consisting of land only, and to pay organizational and offering expenses,
acquisition fees and miscellaneous acquisition expenses, (ii) the receipt of
$32,064,182 in gross offering proceeds from the sale of 3,206,418 additional
shares of common stock during the period July 1, 1997 through August 21, 1997,
and (iii) the application of such funds and $22,386,051 of cash and cash
equivalents at June 30, 1997, to purchase 30 additional properties acquired
during the period July 1, 1997 through August 21, 1997 (12 of which are under
construction and consist of land and building, one property which is under
construction and consists of building only and 17 properties which consist of
land and building), to pay additional costs for the 33 properties under
construction at June 30, 1997, and to pay offering expenses, acquisition fees
and miscellaneous acquisition expenses, all as reflected in the pro forma
adjustments described in the related notes. The Pro Forma Consolidated Balance
Sheet as of June 30, 1997, includes the transactions described in (i) above from
the historical consolidated balance sheet, adjusted to give effect to the
transactions in (ii) and (iii) above, as if they had occurred on June 30, 1997.

         The Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, include the historical
operating results of the properties described in (i) above from the dates of
their acquisitions plus operating results for six of the properties that were
acquired by the Company during the period January 1, 1996 through August 21,
1997, and had a previous rental history prior to the Company's acquisition of
such properties, from (A) the later of (1) the date the property became
operational as a rental property by the previous owner or (2) January 1, 1996,
to (B) the earlier of (1) the date the property was acquired by the Company or
(2) the end of the pro forma period presented. No pro forma adjustments have
been made to the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the remaining
properties acquired by the Company during the period January 1, 1996 through
August 21, 1997, due to the fact that these properties did not have a previous
rental history.

         This pro forma consolidated financial information is presented for
informational purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the
Company's financial results or condition if the various events and transactions
reflected therein had occurred on the dates, or been in effect during the
periods, indicated. This pro forma consolidated financial information should not
be viewed as predictive of the Company's financial results or conditions in the
future.

(b)      In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, leases in
         which the present value of future minimum lease payments equals or
         exceeds 90 percent of the value of the related properties are treated
         as direct financing leases rather than as land and buildings. The
         categorization of the leases has no effect on rental revenues received.

Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Earnings:

(1)      Represents rental income from operating leases and earned income from
         direct financing leases for six of the properties acquired during the
         period January 1, 1996 through August 21, 1997, which had a previous
         rental history prior to the acquisition of the property by the Company
         (the "Pro Forma Properties"), for the period commencing (A) the later
         of (i) the date the Pro Forma Property became operational as a rental
         property by the previous owner or (ii) January 1, 1996, to (B) the
         earlier of (i) the date the Pro Forma Property was acquired by the
         Company or (ii) the end of the pro forma period presented.  Each of the
         six Pro Forma Properties was acquired from an affiliate who had
         purchased and temporarily held title to the property.  The
         noncancellable leases for the Pro Forma Properties in place during the
         period the affiliate owned the properties were assigned to the Company
         at the time the Company acquired the properties.  The following
         presents the actual date the Pro Forma Properties were acquired or
         placed in service by the Company as compared to the date the Pro Forma
         Properties were treated as becoming operational as a rental property
         for purposes of the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Earnings.

</TABLE>

         In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, lease
         revenue from leases accounted for under the operating method is
         recognized over the terms of the leases. For operating leases providing
         escalating guaranteed minimum rents, income is reported on a
         straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. For leases accounted
         for as direct financing leases, future minimum lease payments are
         recorded as a receivable. The difference between the receivable and the
         estimated residual values less the cost of the properties is recorded
         as unearned income. The unearned income is amortized over the lease
         terms to provide a constant rate of return. Accordingly, pro forma
         rental income from operating leases and earned income from direct
         financing leases does not necessarily represent rental payments that
         would have been received if the properties had been operational for the
         full pro forma period.

Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Earnings - Continued:

         Generally, the leases provide for the payment of percentage rent in
         addition to base rental income. However, due to the fact that no
         percentage rent was due under the leases for the Pro Forma Properties
         during the portion of 1996 and 1997 that the previous owners held the
         properties, no pro forma adjustment was made for percentage rental
         income for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended
         December 31, 1996.

(2)      See Note (b) under "Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet" above for a
         description of direct financing leases.

(3)      Represents adjustment to interest income due to the decrease in the
         amount of cash available for investment in interest bearing accounts
         during the periods commencing (A) on the later of (i) the dates the Pro
         Forma Properties became operational as rental properties by the
         previous owners or (ii) January 1, 1996, through (B) the earlier of (i)
         the actual dates of acquisition by the Company or the end of the pro
         forma period presented, as described in Note (1) above.  The estimated
         pro forma adjustment is based upon the fact that interest income on
         interest bearing accounts was earned at a rate of approximately four
         percent per annum by the Company during the six months ended June 30,
         1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996.

(4)      Represents incremental increase in asset management fees relating to
         the Pro Forma Properties for the period commencing (A) on the later of
         (i) the date the Pro Forma Properties became operational as rental
         properties by the previous owners or (ii) January 1, 1996 through (B)
         the earlier of (i) the date the Pro Forma Properties were acquired by
         the Company or (ii) the end of the pro forma period presented, as
         described in Note (1) above.  Asset management fees are equal to 0.60%
         of the Company's Real Estate Asset Value (estimated to be approximately
         $873,000 and $3,509,000 for the Pro Forma Properties for the six months
         ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996,
         respectively), as defined in the Company's prospectus.

(5)      Represents adjustment to state tax expense due to the incremental
         increase in rental revenues of Pro Forma Properties.  Estimated pro
         forma state tax expense was calculated based on an analysis of state
         laws of the various states in which the Company has acquired the Pro
         Forma Properties.  The estimated pro forma state taxes consist
         primarily of income and franchise taxes ranging from zero to
         approximately two percent of the Company's pro forma rental income of
         each Pro Forma Property.  Due to the fact that the Company's leases are
         triple net, the Company has not included any amounts for real estate
         taxes in the pro forma statement of earnings.

(6)      Represents incremental increase in depreciation expense of the building
         portions of the Pro Forma Properties accounted for as operating leases
         using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 30
         years.

(7)      Historical earnings per share were calculated based upon the weighted
         average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the six
         months ended June 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996.
