Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, this report has been signed below by the following persons on behalf of the registrant and in the capacities and on the dates indicated.
APPENDIX A TO FORM 10-K
CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 6 - A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AND SUBSIDIARIES
1996 ANNUAL REPORT
SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (In thousands except per unit amounts)
(1) Net income for 1995 includes an extraordinary gain on the extinguishment of debt of $2,088,000. (2) Includes distributions attributable to the fourth quarter of each fiscal year payable in the following fiscal year less distributions in the first fiscal quarter applicable to the prior year. (3) Represents scheduled payment of mortgage principal paid. (4) Represents mortgage and note payable obligations due after more than one year.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations --------------------- Net income for the year ended December 31, 1996 decreased by $1,834,000 as compared with net income in 1995. Excluding the effects of a nonrecurring other income item of $688,000 and an extraordinary gain of $2,088,000 both in 1995, income would have increased by $942,000. The increase in income, as adjusted was primarily due to decreases in interest, property and general and administrative expenses and an increase in lease revenues. This was partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense.
The decrease in interest expense was due to the satisfaction of the mortgage loans on the Stoody Deloro Stellite, Inc. ("Stoody"), Anthony's Manufacturing, Inc. ("Anthony's") and the Peerless Chain Company ("Peerless") properties in 1995 and the refinancing of an existing mortgage loan on the property leased to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. ("Wal-Mart") in 1996. The Stoody and Anthony's loans were paid off, in part by obtaining $10,000,000 of recourse financing; however, overall interest on this obligation was lower than the interest incurred on the retired mortgage loans. The decrease in property expenses was primarily due to the provision for uncollected rents incurred on the lease with Folger Adam Company ("Folger Adam") in 1995 and the legal costs incurred in connection with the settlement of the Anthony's dispute in 1995. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was due to a decrease in legal costs, provisions for state taxes and office occupancy costs. Lease revenues increased due to rent increases on the Partnership's leases with Peerless, Wal-Mart and Armel Inc. in 1996 and leases with Motorola Inc. ("Motorola") and Stoody in 1995. Lease revenues also benefited from increased rent from the A.P. Parts Manufacturing ("AP Parts") lease in connection with the Partnership's funding of improvements in January 1996 at one of the A.P. Parts properties. The increase in depreciation expense was due to the classification of the new lease with Yale Security, Inc. ("Yale") as an operating lease. In March 1996, Yale entered into a lease with the Partnership for the Partnership's property in Lemont, Illinois after purchasing the operations of Folger Adam in a bankruptcy proceeding. Depreciation also increased due to the funding of $1,700,000 of improvements at A.P. Parts.
Earnings from the Partnership's hotel operations increased by $120,000 to $1,154,000 as compared with 1995, an increase of approximately 12%. Operating income from the Alpena and Petoskey hotels increased 7% and 11%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared with 1995. The average room rate remained stable at the Alpena hotel with the occupancy rate increasing by 6% resulting in both a 5% increase in room revenue and a 4% increase in food and beverage revenue. There was a 14% increase in the occupancy rate at the Petoskey hotel; however, the average room rate decreased by 9%. Petoskey also benefited from a decrease in operating expenses. The decrease in Petoskey room rates was the result of increased competition from other resorts. The earnings of the Livonia hotel increased by 13% as a result of a 6% increase in revenues and only a 3% increase in expenses. The increase in revenues was due to an increase of 10% in overall average room rates, with increases sustained in each room rate category. The ability to raise rates was due to favorable economic and business conditions in the Detroit metropolitan area.
Net income for the year ended December 31, 1995 increased by $4,760,000 as compared with net income for the year ended December 31, 1994. Of the increase, $2,776,000 was due to the Partnership's successful settlement of its dispute with Anthony's and the related gain on the prepayment of the mortgage loan on the Anthony's properties, which was paid off at a substantial discount. Excluding the effect of these settlement transactions and $225,000 that the Partnership received in 1994 as a settlement relating to the 1992 lease termination at the Livonia, Michigan hotel property, income reflected an increase of $2,209,000 from the prior year.
The increase in income, as adjusted for 1995, was primarily due to a decrease in property expenses and, to a lesser extent, an increase in lease revenues and a decrease in interest expense. The decrease in property expenses was due to costs incurred in 1994 in connection with (i) the Partnership's assessment of liquidity alternatives which included environmental reviews and property valuations, (ii) costs incurred in the Anthony's dispute prior to the commencement of settlement negotiations and (iii) charges incurred for uncollected Anthony's rent. As a result of the Anthony's settlement in May 1995, the Partnership ultimately collected most of such uncollected rents. The increase in lease revenues was due to rental
increases on the Partnership's leases with Stoody and the Folger Adam and increased rent resulting from a modification of the AutoZone, Inc. ("AutoZone") lease. The decrease in interest expense was due to lower overall loan balances as the result of the satisfaction of the mortgage loans on the Stoody and Anthony's properties, the payoff of which was partially funded with a new loan that is a recourse obligation of the Partnership.
Earnings from the Partnership's hotel operations decreased by $41,000 to $1,034,000 as compared with 1994, a decrease of approximately 4%. The occupancy rate at the Petoskey, Michigan hotel declined to 43% in 1995 from 47% in 1994 due to increased competition from a nearby resort area. The Partnership was only able to increase the average room rate at Petoskey by slightly less than 1% in 1995. Occupancy rates at the Alpena, Michigan hotel property remained stable at 55% and the Partnership was able to increase the average room rate by slightly less than 5%. Occupancy and average room rates at the Livonia hotel increased by 2% and 8%, respectively. The operations in Alpena and Petoskey are seasonal in nature with the largest proportion of income being earned in the summer months. The operations of the Livonia hotel which represented 61% of hotel revenues and 72% of hotel earnings are not seasonal in nature, but, as noted, are affected by the economic conditions in the Detroit metropolitan area.
In connection with funding of the expansion of the A.P. Parts property in Toledo, Ohio, the Partnership refinanced an existing mortgage loan on the A.P. Parts properties and entered into a lease modification agreement. The effect of the lease modification and new mortgage financing increased cash flow from the A.P. Parts properties by $336,500 annually. Future cash flow will benefit from rent increases on the Partnership's leases with Anthony's in 1998, and Motorola and Lockheed Martin Corporation in 1999. Cash flow also benefited from the reamortization of the AutoZone mortgage loan after such loan was partially prepaid with proceeds from the sale of two properties. The Partnership's $10,000,000 note payable is a variable rate obligation and interest will vary based on the short-term interest rate environment.
Because of the long-term nature of the Partnership's net leases, inflation and changing prices should not unfavorably affect the Partnership's revenues and net income or have an impact on the continuing operations of the Partnership's properties. The Partnership's net leases have rent increases based on the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") and may have caps on such CPI increases, or sales overrides, which should increase operating revenues in the future. The moderate increases in the CPI over the past several years will affect the rate of such future rent increases. Although there are indications that there may be legislation which considers changes to the CPI methodology, the Partnership cannot predict the outcome of any proposal relating to the CPI formula. Management believes that hotel operations will not be significantly impacted by changing prices. In addition, Management believes that reasonable increases in hotel operating costs may be partially or entirely offset by increases in room rates. As noted, based on the conditions of the Livonia hotel, the Partnership has increased room rates by amounts in excess of increase in costs.
Financial Condition -------------------
Other than its interest in the three hotel properties, all of the Partnership's properties are leased to corporate tenants under long-term net leases which generally require tenants to pay all operating expenses relating to the leased properties. The Partnership depends on relatively stable operating cash flow from its net leases and hotel operations to meet operating expenses, service its debt, fund distributions and maintain adequate cash reserves. In addition, the Partnership maintains cash reserves to fund major outlays such as capital improvements and balloon debt payments.
The Partnership's cash flow from operating activities of $7,616,000 in 1996 was sufficient to fund distributions to partners of $4,881,000 and $1,156,000 of scheduled principal payment installments on the Partnership's mortgage debt.
The Partnership's investing activities in 1996 consisted of receiving $603,000 from selling two AutoZone properties and funding $1,728,000 of improvements to the A.P. Parts property. The Partnership also used $169,000 to (i) fund improvements needed to meet the requirements of the Holiday Inn core modernization plan at the Alpena and Petoskey hotels and (ii) for replacing furniture, fixtures and equipment at the hotels in the ordinary course of business. Other assets at December 31, 1996 included approximately $289,000 of reserves which is available to fund replacements and improvements at the hotel properties. These
reserves are funded by an allocation of hotel revenues. The Partnership does not anticipate utilizing any funds in excess of amounts set aside in the reserve account to fund improvements or replacements within the next 12 months. The Partnership has no current plans to fund improvements at any other of its leased properties.
The Partnership's financing activities in 1996 consisted primarily of using cash flow from operations to pay distributions and meeting scheduled principal payment installment obligations. The Partnership obtained $3,500,000 in connection with refinancing the mortgage loan on the Wal-Mart property at which time it paid off an existing loan on the property of $3,420,000 which had been scheduled to mature in May 1997. The Partnership obtained a new limited recourse mortgage loan of $6,000,000 on the A.P. Parts properties which was used to fund the improvements and pay off an existing loan of $4,000,000. The Partnership used cash reserves to pay a balloon payment of $1,500,000 on a limited recourse loan encumbered by the Winn Dixie Stores Inc., property. The proceeds from the sale of the two AutoZone properties were used to make mandatory partial prepayments on the AutoZone mortgage loan.
The Partnership has several balloon payments scheduled over the next several years including payments of $2,609,000 on the Livonia Hotel mortgage loan in 1997 and $8,618,000 on the AutoZone loan in 1998. The Partnership negotiated short-term extensions of the maturity of mortgage loans on the Motorola and Yale Security properties which had been scheduled to mature in 1996. The Motorola loan of $2,188,000 and the Yale Security loan of $1,885,000 are now scheduled to mature in 1997. The Partnership does not currently have the cash necessary to pay all of these loans. Management believes the prospects for refinancing the properties servicing these loans are good as these loans will remain subject to leases for a number of years and in the case of the hotel, generate substantial cash flow from operations. The Partnership currently has sufficient capacity to borrow against several of its unleveraged properties while still remaining in compliance with the covenants of the recourse loan. In the case of limited recourse mortgage financing which does not fully amortize over its term, the Partnership would be responsible for the balloon payment required only to the extent of its interest in the encumbered property because the holder of each such obligation has recourse only to the property collateralizing such debt. In the event that balloon payments come due, the Partnership's alternatives include seeking to refinance the loans, restructuring the debt with the existing lenders, evaluating its ability to satisfy the mortgages from existing cash reserves or selling the property and using the sales proceeds to satisfy the mortgage debt.
Anthony's and Wal-Mart have options exercisable in 1997 to purchase their leased properties. The purchase options are exercisable at the greater of (i) the Partnership's cost of acquiring such properties, including improvements funded subsequent to purchase, and any premium that would be incurred on paying off mortgage loans on the properties or (ii) the fair market value of the properties as encumbered by the lease. In the event that both options were exercised in 1997, the Partnership would receive net proceeds of no less than $14,377,000. If exercised, annual cash flow (rents less mortgage debt service) would be reduced by $1,372,000.
Except for the three hotel properties, all of the properties are currently leased to corporate tenants. All of the properties are subject to environmental statutes and regulations regarding the discharge of hazardous materials and any related remediation obligations. The Partnership normally structures its leases to require tenants to comply with all laws. In addition, substantially all of the Partnership's net leases include indemnification provisions which require tenants to indemnify the Partnership from all liabilities and losses related to their operations at the leased properties. If the Partnership undertakes to clean up or remediate any of its leased properties, the General Partners believe that in most cases the Partnership will be entitled to full reimbursement from tenants for such costs. Further, in the event that the Partnership either is responsible or becomes responsible for such costs because of a tenant's failure to fulfill its obligations the General Partners believe that the ultimate resolution of the aforementioned environmental matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.
The General Partners are continuing to investigate ways to provide liquidity for limited partners on a tax-effective basis.

CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 6 - a California limited partnership 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 6 and two 99% owned subsidiaries, CPA(R) Burnhaven Limited Partnership and CPA(R) Peerless Limited Partnership, (collectively, the "Partnership").
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. 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 betterments.
The Partnership 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. Such methods are 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 Partnership's net investment in the lease.
Operating method - Real estate is recorded at cost, revenue is ---------------- recognized as rentals are earned and expenses (including depreciation) are charged to operations as incurred.
The Partnership 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 net realizable value.
Substantially all of the Partnership'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.
Operating Real Estate: ---------------------- Land, buildings and personal property are carried at cost. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized to the property accounts, while replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed currently.
Continued
CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 6 - a California limited partnership and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued
Depreciation: ------------- Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the components of the particular properties, which range from 5 to 30 years.
Cash Equivalents: ----------------- The Partnership 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 funds. Substantially all of the Partnership's cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1995 and 1996 were held in the custody of three financial institutions.
Other Assets: ------------- Included in the assets are deferred charges incurred in connection with mortgage note financings which are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the mortgages.
Income Taxes: -------------
A partnership is not liable for Federal income taxes as each partner recognizes his proportionate share of the partnership income or loss in his tax return. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is recognized for financial statement purposes.
Deferred Rental Income: -----------------------
A lease amendment fee of $3,800,000 received in 1995 in connection with the amendment of one of the Partnership's leases is being amortized as deferred rental income from the date of the amendment through the end of the initial term of the lease (15 1/2 years).
Reclassifications: ------------------
Certain 1994 and 1995 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1996 financial statement presentation.
2. Partnership Agreement: ---------------------- The Partnership was organized on July 23, 1984 under the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of California for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and leasing industrial and commercial real estate. The Corporate General Partner purchased 100 Limited Partnership Units in connection with the Partnership's public offering. The Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2004, or sooner, in accordance with the terms of the Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Agreement").
Continued
CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 6 - a California limited partnership and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued
The Agreement provides that the General Partners are allocated 6% (1% to the Individual General Partner, William P. Carey, and 5% to the Corporate General Partner, Carey Corporate Property, Inc. ("Carey Property"), an affiliate of the General Partner), and the Limited Partners are allocated 94% of the profits and losses as well as distributions of Distributable Cash From Operations, as defined. The partners are also entitled to receive net proceeds from the sale of the Partnership properties as defined in the Agreement. In accordance with the Agreement, the General Partners, were allocated the gain on the sale of real estate as well as the related tax gain in order to reduce their negative balances because they had negative capital balances at the beginning of the year.
The General Partners may be entitled to receive a subordinated preferred return, measured based upon the cumulative proceeds arising from the sale of Partnership assets. Pursuant to the subordination provisions of the Agreement, the preferred return may be paid only after the limited partners receive 100% of their initial investment from the proceeds of asset sales and a cumulative annual return of 6% since the inception of the Partnership. The General Partners interest in such preferred return amounts to $18,099 based upon the cumulative proceeds from the sale of assets since the inception of the Partnership through December 31, 1996. The Partnership's ability to satisfy the subordination provisions of the Agreement may not be determinable until liquidation of a substantial portion of the Partnership's assets has been made.
3. Transactions with Related Parties: ----------------------------------
The Partnership holds its 35% interest in hotel properties in Alpena and Petoskey, Michigan and its 34.4828% ownership interest in a hotel property in Livonia, Michigan as tenants-in-common with affiliates who own the remaining interests. The Partnership's interests in the assets and liabilities of the hotel properties are accounted for on a proportional basis.
The Partnership holds a $1,151,000 note receivable made by Corporate Property Associates 5 ("CPA(R):5"), an affiliate. The note bears interest at the rate of 13.48% through August 1, 1999, at which time the interest rate will reset to the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986) at that date. The note matures on May 1, 2012, at which time the entire outstanding principal balance will be due. Under certain circumstances, the principal balance on the note may be reduced.
Under the Agreement, W.P. Carey & Co., Inc. ("W.P. Carey") and other affiliates are entitled to receive a property management fee and reimbursement of certain expenses incurred in connection with the Partnership's operations. General and administrative expense reimbursements consist primarily of the actual cost of personnel needed in providing administrative services necessary to the operation of the Partnership. Property management fee and general and administrative expense reimbursements are summarized as follows:
During 1994, 1995 and 1996, fees aggregating $96,539, $102,893 and $44,215, respectively, were incurred for legal services performed by a firm in which the Secretary of W.P. Carey, Carey Property and other affiliates is a partner.

9. Industry Segment Information: ----------------------------
The Partnership's operations consist of the investment in and the leasing of industrial and commercial real estate and its participation in the operation of three hotels.
In 1994, 1995 and 1996, the Partnership earned its total leasing revenues (rental income plus interest income from financing leases) from the following lease obligors:
Summarized operating results of the Partnership's share of the operations of three hotels are:
10. Hotel Property in Livonia, Michigan: -----------------------------------
In November 1987, the Partnership and Corporate Property Associates 7 ("CPA(R):7"), an affiliate, purchased a Holiday Inn in Livonia, Michigan with 34.4828% and 65.5172% interests, respectively, as tenants-in-common and entered into a net lease with Brock Hotel Corporation which subsequently changed its name to Integra - A Hotel and Restaurant Company ("Integra"). Integra subsequently assigned its interest in the lease to a wholly-owned subsidiary, Livonia Inn Management, Inc. while Integra remained the guarantor of the lease. Continue
CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 6 - a California limited partnership and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued
As a result of Integra's financial condition, the subsidiary stopped paying rent in May 1992 with Integra subsequently filing a voluntary bankruptcy petition in July 1992. Both of these events were defaults under the lease as well as under the mortgage note collateralized by the Livonia property. In August 1992, pursuant to a letter of agreement, the Partnership and CPA(R):7 assumed control of the hotel operations.
In March 1994, the Partnership and CPA(R):7 executed a settlement agreement with the Hallwood Group, Inc. ("Hallwood Group"), Integra's largest shareholder, under which the Partnership and CPA(R):7 agreed to surrender a promissory note made by Hallwood Group, which had been pledged by Integra to the Partnership and CPA(R):7 as additional collateral to Integra's lease obligation, in exchange for $150,000 in cash, a $500,000 promissory note from Hallwood Group and an equity participation having a potential value of up to $500,000 from the Hallwood Group. The $500,000 note bears interest at 8% per annum and matures no later than March 8, 1998 and, subject to certain conditions, is redeemable at an earlier date. The note is collateralized by the Hallwood Group's pledge of 89,269 of its limited partnership units of Hallwood Realty Partners, L.P. ("Hallwood Realty"), a publicly traded limited partnership. The pledged units represent 5.2% of all outstanding limited partnership units of Hallwood Realty. Under the settlement agreement, the Hallwood Group has the obligation to pay to the Partnership and CPA(R):7 an amount equal to 25% of the increase in value of the Hallwood Realty units up to $500,000, from March 1994 to the note maturity date. If the price per unit increases to $45 or greater, the Partnership and CPA(R):7 may, subject to certain restrictions, receive a payment from the Hallwood Group representing the 25% appreciation of the pledged units prior to the note maturity date. At December 31, 1996, the pledged limited partnership units had a market value of $24 1/2 per unit. The Partnership's share of the cash proceeds and the note receivable of $224,138 are included in other income 1994.
During 1996, the Partnership and CPA(R):7 received $221,000 (of which the Partnership's share was $77,000) from the bankruptcy trustee in partial settlement of the Partnership's and CPA(R):7's claim against Integra.
11. Extraordinary Gain on Extinguishment of Debt: -------------------------------------------- In May 1995, the Partnership and Anthony's Manufacturing Company, Inc. ("Anthony's") entered into a settlement agreement at which time the Partnership withdrew its eviction suit against Anthony's. The Partnership had filed an eviction notice because Anthony's had not paid a scheduled monthly rent increase of $10,485 which had been effective since March 1992 and had made only two monthly rental payments between February 1994 and April 1995. In connection with the settlement agreement, Anthony's made lump sum payments aggregating $1,550,000 in settlement of a rent arrearage of $1,712,098. Of the $1,550,000 received $561,710 was applied to 1995 rents receivable for the period from January 1, 1995 through May 31, 1995 with the remaining $988,290 applied to prior period rents. The amounts related to prior periods, had been included in the Partnership's reserve for uncollected rents. Net of the legal costs of the settlement of $300,476, the Partnership recognized $687,814 on the settlement which was included as other income in 1995. Under the settlement, the Partnership and Anthony's agreed to modify the existing lease. Under the lease modification agreement, Anthony's monthly rental payment decreased from $112,342 to $73,000 and the expiration of the initial term of the lease was extended to May 2007 from February 2002. The amended lease also provides for rental increases in 1998, 2001 and 2005.
CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 6 - a California limited partnership and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued
In May 1995, the Partnership paid off and satisfied the mortgage loan collateralized by the Anthony's properties. The lender accepted a payment of $5,440,000 to satisfy an outstanding principal balance of $6,853,966 and accrued interest thereon of $705,387. In connection with the satisfaction of the debt, the Partnership recognized an extraordinary gain on the extinguishment of debt of $2,088,268, net of certain related legal costs in 1995. To pay off the mortgage obligation, the Partnership used the $1,550,000 received from Anthony's under the settlement agreement and obtained $4,000,000 of financing from its credit agreement (see Note 6B).
12. Gain on Sales of Real Estate: ----------------------------
On January 26, 1996 and April 26, 1996, the Partnership sold property in Dalton, Georgia and Birmingham Alabama, respectively, leased to AutoZone, Inc. ("AutoZone"), at an aggregate price of $603,285, net of selling costs, realizing a gain of $70,878 on the sales. AutoZone's leases allow it to sever properties from its leases and purchase such properties which it judges to be unsuitable for its retail business. The Partnership was required to assign the proceeds of the sales to its lender as a partial prepayment on the mortgage loan collateralized by the AutoZone property. In connection with the sales, annual rent of the AutoZone lease was reduced by $67,635; however, cash flow increased as annual debt service on the mortgage loan was reduced by $98,197 as a result of a reamortization of the loan.
13. Environmental Matters: ---------------------
All of the Partnership's properties, other than the hotel properties, are currently leased to corporate tenants. All of the properties are subject to environmental statutes and regulations regarding the discharge of hazardous materials and related remediation obligations. The Partnership generally structures a lease to require the tenant to comply with all laws. In addition, substantially all of the Partnership's net leases include provisions which require tenants to indemnify the Partnership from all liabilities and losses related to their operations at the leased properties. The costs for remediation, which are expected to be performed and paid by the affected tenant, are not expected to be material. In the event that the Partnership absorbs a portion of any costs because of a tenant's failure to fulfill its obligations, the General Partners believe such expenditures will not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.
In 1994, based on the results of Phase I environmental reviews performed in 1993, the Partnership voluntarily conducted Phase II environmental reviews on various of its properties. The Partnership believes, based on the results of such Phase I and Phase II reviews, that its properties are in substantial compliance with Federal and state environmental statutes and regulations. Portions of certain properties have been documented as having a limited degree of contamination, principally in connection with leakage from underground storage tanks or surface spills. For those conditions which were identified, the Partnership advised the affected tenant of the Phase II findings and of its obligation to perform required remediation.
14. 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 Partnership estimates that the fair value of mortgage notes payable approximates the carrying amount of such mortgage notes at December 31, 1996. The fair value of debt instruments was evaluated using a discounted cash flow with discount rates which take into account the credit of the tenants and interest rate risk. The Partnership note payable is a variable rate obligation indexed to the three-month LIBOR. Accordingly, the carrying amount of the note payable approximates fair value as of December 31, 1996.
