PENDING INVESTMENTS
As of February 10, 1998, the Company had initial commitments to acquire
ten properties, including eight properties consisting of land and building and
two 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 ten 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 the IHOP property in Saugus, Massachusetts, the
Company anticipates owning only the building and not the underlying land.
However, the Company anticipates entering into a landlord estoppel agreement
with the landlord of the land and a collateral assignment of the ground lease
with the lessee in order to provide the Company with certain rights with respect
to the land on which the building is located.
In connection with one of the Shoney's properties in Phoenix, Arizona,
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.
