The merger is one of multiple concurrent transactions pursuant to which 17 other affiliated limited partnerships also will be merged with a subsidiary of U.S. Restaurant Properties, Inc. and in which CNL Restaurant Properties, Inc., an affiliate, also will be merged with U.S. Restaurant Properties, Inc. The merger of the Partnership (and each of the 17 other affiliated mergers) is subject to certain conditions including approval by a majority of the limited partners, consummation of a minimum number of limited partnership mergers representing at least 75.0% in value (as measured by the value of the merger consideration) of all limited partnerships, consummation of the merger between U.

The transaction is expected to be consummated in the first quarter of 2005.

Under the terms of the transaction, the limited partners will receive total consideration of approximately $36.04 million, consisting of approximately $30.14 million in cash and approximately $5.90 million in U.S. Restaurant Properties, Inc.
