PART I


Item 1. Business

CNL Income Fund VIII, Ltd. (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership") is a
limited partnership which was organized pursuant to the laws of the State of
Florida on August 18, 1989. The General Partners of the Partnership are Robert
A. Bourne, James M. Seneff, Jr. and CNL Realty Corporation, a Florida
corporation (the "General Partners"). Beginning on August 2, 1990, the
Partnership offered for sale up to $35,000,000 of limited partnership interests
(the "Units") (35,000,000 Units at $1 per Unit) pursuant to a registration
statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, effective
January 30, 1990. The offering terminated on March 7, 1991, at which date the
maximum offering proceeds of $35,000,000 had been received from investors who
were admitted to the Partnership as limited partners (the "Limited Partners").

The Partnership was organized to acquire both newly constructed and
existing restaurant properties, as well as properties upon which restaurants
were to be constructed (the "Properties"), which are leased primarily to
operators of national and regional fast-food and family-style restaurant chains
(the "Restaurant Chains"). Net proceeds to the Partnership from its offering of
Units, after deduction of organizational and offering expenses, totaled
$30,975,000 and were used to acquire 38 Properties, including interests in eight
Properties owned by joint ventures in which the Partnership is a co-venturer,
and to establish a working capital reserve for Partnership purposes.

As of December 31, 1999, the Partnership owned 37 Properties, either
directly or indirectly through joint venture or tenancy in common arrangements.
During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Partnership sold four Properties,
one in each of Brooksville, Bayonet Point, Sun City, and Jacksonville, Florida.
The Partnership reinvested a portion of the sales proceeds it received from the
sales of the Properties in a Bennigan's Property located in Deerfield, Illinois
and a Pizza Hut Property in Hialeah, Florida. In 2000, the Partnership also used
a portion of the net sales proceeds from the sale of its Properties to acquire
an interest in a Baker's Square Property in Libertyville, Illinois, with an
affiliate of the General Partners as tenants-in-common. During the year ended
December 31, 2001, the Partnership sold its Property in Statesville, North
Carolina, and reinvested the majority of the net sales proceeds in a Jack in the
Box Property located in Walker, Louisiana and a Bennigan's Property located in
Denver, Colorado, each held with affiliates of the General Partners, which are
Florida limited partnerships, as separate tenants-in-common arrangements. In
addition, during 2001, Middleburg Joint Venture, in which the Partnership owns a
12.46% interest, sold its Property to the tenant, and the Partnership received a
return of capital from the net sales proceeds. In April 2001, the Partnership
reinvested the majority of the net sales proceeds received from Middleburg Joint
Venture and entered into a joint venture arrangement, CNL VIII, X, XII Kokomo
Joint Venture, with affiliates of the General Partners, which are Florida
limited partnerships, to purchase and hold one Property in Kokomo, Indiana. In
January 2002, the Partnership reinvested a portion of the net sales proceeds it
received from the sale of the Property in Statesville, North Carolina, and the
2001 prepaid principal relating to a promissory note, in a Denny's Property
located in Ontario, Oregon. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the
Partnership sold its Property in Baseball City, Florida and reinvested the
majority of the net sales proceeds in a Taco Cabana Property located in Denton,
Texas. In 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II, in which the Partnership owns a
36.8% interest, sold its Property in Columbus, Ohio and used the majority of the
proceeds from the sale to acquire a Taco Cabana property in Dallas, Texas. In
addition in 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II sold its property in Pontiac,
Michigan and the Partnership reinvested the return of capital for its pro-rata
share of the uninvested net sales proceeds relating to the Property in Pontiac,
Michigan in a Texas Roadhouse Property in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as
tenants-in-common, with an affiliate of the general partners and a Florida
limited partnership. In addition in 2002, the Partnership reinvested the 2002
prepaid principal relating to a promissory note in a Boston Market Property
located in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Finally in 2002, the Partnership, as tenants
in common, with an affiliate of the General Partners and a Florida limited
partnership, in which the Partnership owns a 66% interest, sold its Property in
Libertyville, Illinois, and reinvested the liquidating distribution from the
sale to acquire an IHOP property in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, in a new tenancy in
common, with an affiliate of the General Partners and a Florida limited
partnership.

As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned 39 Properties. The 39
Properties included interests in nine Properties owned by joint ventures in
which the Partnership is a co-venturer and four Properties owned with affiliates
as tenants-in-common. The Properties are generally leased on a triple-net basis
with the lessees responsible for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes,
insurance and utilities.

The Partnership holds its Properties until the General Partners
determine that the sale or other disposition of the Properties is advantageous
in view of the Partnership's investment objectives. In deciding whether to sell
Properties, the General Partners consider factors such as potential capital
appreciation, net cash flow and federal income tax considerations. Certain
lessees also have been granted options to purchase Properties, generally at the
Property's then fair market value after a specified portion of the lease term
has elapsed. The Partnership has no obligation to sell all or any portion of a
Property at any particular time, except as may be required under property
purchase options granted to certain lessees.

Leases

Although there are variations in the specific terms of the leases, the
following is a summarized description of the general structure of the
Partnership's leases. The leases of the Properties owned by the Partnership and
joint ventures in which the Partnership is a co-venturer and the Property owned
as tenants-in-common with affiliates of the General Partners provide for initial
terms, ranging from 9 to 25 years (the average being 18 years), and expire
between 2005 and 2020. The leases are generally on a triple-net basis, with the
lessees responsible for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance
and utilities. The leases of the Properties provide for minimum base annual
rental payments (payable in monthly installments) ranging from approximately
$49,200 to $251,500. The majority of the leases provide for percentage rent,
based on sales in excess of a specified amount. In addition, a majority of the
leases provide that, commencing in specified lease years (ranging from the third
to the sixth lease year), the annual base rent required under the terms of the
lease will increase.

Generally, the leases of the Properties provide for two to four
five-year renewal options subject to the same terms and conditions as the
initial lease. Lessees of 31 of the Partnership's 39 Properties also have been
granted options to purchase Properties at the Property's then fair market value
after a specified portion of the lease term has elapsed. Fair market value will
be determined through an appraisal by an independent appraisal firm. Under the
terms of certain leases, the option purchase price may equal the Partnership's
original cost to purchase the Property (including acquisition costs), plus a
specified percentage from the date of the lease or a specified percentage of the
Partnership's purchase price, if that amount is greater than the Property's fair
market value at the time the purchase option is exercised.

The leases generally provide that, in the event the Partnership wishes
to sell the Property subject to that lease, the Partnership first must offer the
lessee the right to purchase the Property on the same terms and conditions, and
for the same price, as any offer which the Partnership has received for the sale
of the Property.

During 2002, the Partnership reinvested a portion of the net sales
proceeds it received from the sale of the Property in Statesville, North
Carolina, and the 2001 prepaid principal relating to a promissory note, in a
Denny's Property located in Ontario, Oregon. During 2002, the Partnership also
sold its Property in Baseball City, Florida and reinvested the majority of the
net sales proceeds in a Taco Cabana Property located in Denton, Texas. In
addition in 2002, the Partnership reinvested the 2002 prepaid principal relating
to a promissory note in a Boston Market Property located in Eden Prairie,
Minnesota. The lease terms for these Properties are substantially the same as
the Partnership's other leases.

In 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II, in which the Partnership owns a
36.8% interest, sold its Property in Columbus, Ohio and used the majority of the
proceeds from the sale to acquire a Taco Cabana property in Dallas, Texas. In
addition in 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II sold its property in Pontiac,
Michigan and the Partnership reinvested the return of capital for its pro-rata
share of the net sales proceeds in a Texas Roadhouse Property in Kenosha,
Wisconsin, as tenants-in-common, with an affiliate of the general partners and a
Florida limited partnership. The lease terms for these Properties are
substantially the same as the Partnership's other leases.

In 2002, the Partnership and an affiliate of the general partners,
which is a Florida limited partnership, as tenants in common in which the
Partnership owns a 66% interest, sold its Property in Libertyville, Illinois,
and reinvested the liquidating distribution from the sale to acquire an IHOP
property in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, as a new tenants-in-common arrangement,
with the same affiliate. The lease terms for this Property are substantially the
same as the Partnership's other leases.

In February 2002, a tenant, Brandon Fast Food Services, Inc., filed for
bankruptcy. The tenant has neither rejected nor affirmed the one lease it has
with the Partnership. A workout plan has not been approved since all parties
involved have not been able to agree on a workout plan. As of March 10, 2003,
the Partnership has continued receiving rental payments relating to this lease.
While the tenant has neither rejected nor affirmed this lease, there can be no
assurance that the lease will not be rejected in the future. The lost revenues
resulting from the possible rejection of this lease will have an adverse effect
on the results of operations of the Partnership if the Partnership is unable to
re-lease the Property in a timely manner.

Major Tenants

During 2002, two lessees (or groups of affiliated lessees) of the
Partnership and its consolidated joint venture, Golden Corral Corporation and
the affiliated entities under common control, Carrols Corporation and Texas Taco
Cabana (hereinafter referred to as "Carrols Corporation"), each contributed more
than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental revenues and mortgage
interest income (including rental revenues from the Partnership's consolidated
joint venture and the Partnership's share of rental revenues from Properties
owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and Properties owned with affiliates of
the General Partners as tenants-in-common). As of December 31, 2002, Golden
Corral Corporation was the lessee under leases relating to five restaurants, and
Carrols Corporation was the lessee under leases relating to seven restaurants.
It is anticipated that, based on the minimum rental payments required by the
leases, these two lessees (or groups of affiliated lessees) each will continue
to contribute more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental revenues
and mortgage interest income in 2003. In addition, two Restaurant Chains, Golden
Corral Family Steakhouse Restaurants ("Golden Corral") and Burger King, each
accounted for more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental revenues
and mortgage interest income in 2002 (including rental revenues from the
Partnership's consolidated joint venture and the Partnership's share of rental
revenues from Properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and Properties
owned with affiliates of the General Partners as tenants-in-common). In 2003, it
is anticipated that these two Restaurant Chains each will continue to account
for more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental revenues and
mortgage interest income to which the Partnership is entitled under the terms of
the leases. Any failure of these lessees or Restaurant Chains could materially
affect the Partnership's income if the Partnership is not able to re-lease the
Properties in a timely manner. No single tenant or group of affiliated tenants
lease Properties with an aggregate carrying value in excess of 20 percent of the
total assets of the Partnership.

Joint Venture and Tenancy in Common Arrangements

The partnership has entered into the following joint venture and
tenancy in common arrangements as of December 31, 2002:

and CNL Income Fund IX,

CNL Restaurant Investments II was formed to hold six Properties;
however, it currently holds only five. All other joint ventures or tenancies in
common were formed to hold one Property. Each CNL Income Fund is an affiliate of
the General Partners and is a limited partnership organized pursuant to the laws
of the state of Florida. The Partnership has management control of Woodway Joint
Venture, and shares management control equally with the affiliates of the
General Partners for the other joint ventures.

The joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements provide for the
Partnership and its joint venture or tenancy in common partners to share in all
costs and benefits in proportion to each partner's percentage interest in the
business entity. The Partnership and its partners are also jointly and severally
liable for all debts, obligations and other liabilities of the joint venture or
tenancy in common. Net cash flow from operations is distributed to each joint
venture or tenancy in common partner in accordance with its respective
percentage interest in the business entity.

Woodway Joint Venture, Asheville Joint Venture and Bossier City Joint
Venture each have an initial term of 20 years, and CNL VIII, X, XII Kokomo Joint
Venture has an initial term of 30 years and, after the expiration of the initial
term, continues in existence from year to year unless terminated at the option
of either joint venturer or by an event of dissolution. Events of dissolution
include the bankruptcy, insolvency or termination of any joint venturer, sale of
the Property owned by the joint venture and mutual agreement of the Partnership
and its joint venture partners to dissolve the joint venture. Any liquidation
proceeds, after paying joint venture debts and liabilities and funding reserves
for contingent liabilities, will be distributed first to the joint venture
partners with positive capital account balances in proportion to such balances
until such balances equal zero, and thereafter in proportion to each joint
venture partner's percentage interest in the joint venture. CNL Restaurant
Investments II's joint venture agreement does not provide for a fixed term, but
continues in existence until terminated by any of the joint venturers.

The joint venture and tenancy in common agreements restrict each
party's ability to sell, transfer or assign its joint venture or tenancy in
common interest without first offering it for sale to its partners, either upon
such terms and conditions as to which the parties may agree or, in the event the
parties cannot agree, on the same terms and conditions as any offer from a third
party to purchase such joint venture or tenancy in common interest.

In 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II sold its Property in Columbus,
Ohio and used the majority of the proceeds from the sale to acquire a Taco
Cabana property in Dallas, Texas. In addition in 2002, CNL Restaurant
Investments II sold its property in Pontiac, Michigan and the Partnership
reinvested the return of capital for its pro-rata share of the net sales
proceeds relating to the Property in Pontiac, Michigan in a Texas Roadhouse
Property in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as tenants-in-common.

In addition in 2002, the Partnership and an affiliate of the General
Partners, which is a Florida limited partnership, as tenants in common, sold its
Property in Libertyville, Illinois, and reinvested the liquidating distribution
from the sale to acquire an IHOP property in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, as a new
tenants-in-common arrangement, with the same affiliate.

The use of joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements allows the
Partnership to fully invest its available funds at times at which it would not
have sufficient funds to purchase an additional property, or at times when a
suitable opportunity to purchase an additional property is not available. The
use of joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements also provides the
Partnership with increased diversification of its portfolio among a greater
number of properties. In addition, tenancy in common arrangements may allow the
Partnership to defer the gain for federal income tax purposes upon the sale of
the property if the proceeds are reinvested in an additional property.

Certain Management Services

RAI Restaurants, Inc. (formerly known as CNL Restaurants XVIII, Inc.),
an affiliate of the General Partners, provided certain services relating to
management of the Partnership and its Properties pursuant to a management
agreement with the Partnership. CNL APF Partners, LP assigned its rights in, and
its obligations under, the management agreement with the Partnership to RAI
Restaurants, Inc. ("Advisor") effective January 1, 2002. All of the terms and
conditions of the management agreement, including the payment of fees, remained
unchanged. Under this agreement, the Advisor is responsible for collecting
rental payments, inspecting the Properties and the tenants' books and records,
assisting the Partnership in responding to tenant inquiries and notices, and
providing information to the Partnership about the status of the leases and the
Properties. The Advisor also assists the General Partners in negotiating the
leases. For these services, the Partnership has agreed to pay the Advisor an
annual fee of one percent of the sum of gross operating revenues from Properties
wholly owned by the Partnership plus the Partnership's allocable share of gross
revenues of joint ventures in which the Partnership is a co-venturer, but not in
excess of competitive fees for comparable services. Under the property
management agreement, the property management fee is subordinated to receipt by
the Limited Partners of an aggregate, ten percent, cumulative, noncompounded
annual return on their adjusted capital contributions (the "10% Preferred
Return"), calculated in accordance with the Partnership's limited partnership
agreement (the "Partnership Agreement"). In any year in which the Limited
Partners have not received the 10% Preferred Return, no property management fee
will be paid.

The management agreement continues until the Partnership no longer owns
an interest in any Properties unless terminated at an earlier date upon 60 days'
prior notice by either party.

Competition

The fast-food and family-style restaurant business is characterized by
intense competition. The restaurants on the Partnership's Properties compete
with independently owned restaurants, restaurants which are part of local or
regional chains, and restaurants in other well-known national chains, including
those offering different types of food and service.

Employees

The Partnership has no employees. The officers of CNL Realty
Corporation and the officers and employees of American Properties Fund, Inc.,
the parent company of the Advisor, perform certain services for the Partnership.
In addition, the General Partners have available to them the resources and
expertise of the officers and employees of CNL Financial Group, Inc., a
diversified real estate company, and its affiliates, who may also perform
certain services for the Partnership.

Item 2. Properties

As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned 39 Properties. Of the 39
Properties, 26 are owned by the Partnership in fee simple, nine are owned
through joint venture arrangements, and four are owned through tenancy in common
arrangements. See Item 1. Business - Joint Venture and Tenancy in Common
Arrangements. The Partnership is not permitted to encumber its Properties under
the terms of its partnership agreement. Reference is made to the Schedule of
Real Estate and Accumulated Depreciation for a listing of the Properties and
their respective costs, including acquisition fees and certain acquisition
expenses.

Description of Properties

Land. The Partnership's Property sites, owned directly and indirectly,
range from approximately 17,400 to 128,528 square feet depending upon building
size and local demographic factors. Sites purchased by the Partnership are in
locations zoned for commercial use which have been reviewed for traffic patterns
and volume.

The following table lists the Properties owned by the Partnership,
directly and indirectly, as of December 31, 2002 by state. More detailed

Buildings. Each of the Properties owned by the Partnership, directly
and indirectly, includes a building that is one of a Restaurant Chain's approved
designs. The buildings generally are rectangular and are constructed from
various combinations of stucco, steel, wood, brick and tile. Building sizes
range from approximately 2,100 to 10,600 square feet. All buildings on
Properties are freestanding and surrounded by paved parking areas. Buildings are
suitable for conversion to various uses, although modifications may be required
prior to use for other than restaurant operations. As of December 31, 2002, the
Partnership had no plans for renovation of the Properties. Depreciation expense
is computed for buildings and improvements using the straight line method using
a depreciable life of 40 years for federal income tax purposes.

As of December 31, 2002, the aggregate cost of the Properties owned by
the Partnership (including its consolidated joint venture) and the
unconsolidated joint ventures (including the Properties owned through tenancy in
common arrangements), for federal income tax purposes was $25,620,634 and
$14,617,254, respectively.

The General Partners consider the Properties to be well maintained and
sufficient for the Partnership's operations.

The General Partners believe that the Properties are adequately covered
by insurance. In addition, the General Partners have obtained contingent
liability and property coverage for the Partnership. This insurance is intended
to reduce the Partnership's exposure in the unlikely event a tenant's insurance
policy lapses or is insufficient to cover a claim relating to the Property.

Leases. The Partnership leases substantially all the Properties to
operators of selected national and regional fast-food restaurant chains. The
leases are generally on a long-term "triple net" basis, meaning that the tenant
is responsible for repairs, maintenance, property taxes, utilities and
insurance.

At December 31, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999, and 1998, all of the Properties
were occupied. The following is a schedule of the average rent per Property for
each of the years ended December 31:

Not applicable.


PART II


Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

(a) As of March 10, 2003, there were 3,394 holders of record of the Units.
There is no public trading market for the Units, and it is not anticipated that
a public market for the Units will develop. During 2002, Limited Partners who
wished to sell their Units may have offered the Units for sale pursuant to the
Partnership's distribution reinvestment plan (the "Plan"), and Limited Partners
who wished to have their distributions used to acquire additional Units (to the
extent Units were available for purchase), may have done so pursuant to such
Plan. The General Partners have the right to prohibit transfers of Units. From
inception through December 31, 2002, the price paid for any Unit transferred
pursuant to the Plan was $.95 per Unit. The price paid for any Unit transferred
other than pursuant to the Plan was subject to negotiation by the purchaser and
the selling Limited Partner. The Partnership will not redeem or repurchase
Units.

The following table reflects, for each calendar quarter, the high, low
and average sales prices for transfers of Units during 2002 and 2001 other than
pursuant to the Plan, net of commissions.

(1) A total of 371,760 and 551,448 Units were transferred other than
pursuant to the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001,
respectively.

The capital contribution per Unit was $1. All cash available for
distribution will be distributed to the partners pursuant to the provisions of
the Partnership Agreement.

For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership
declared cash distributions of $3,325,004 and $3,150,004, respectively, to the
Limited Partners. During the quarter ended December 31, 2002, the Partnership
declared a special distribution to the Limited Partners of $175,000 which
represented cumulative excess operating reserves. This special distribution was
effectively a return of a portion of the Limited Partners' investment, although
in accordance with the partnership agreement, $175,000, was applied toward the
Limited Partners' 10% Preferred Return. No amounts distributed to partners for
the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 are required to be or have been
treated by the Partnership as a return of capital for purposes of calculating
the Limited Partners' return on their adjusted capital contributions. No
distributions have been made to the General Partners to date. As indicated in
the chart below, these distributions were declared at the close of each of the
Partnership's calendar quarters. These amounts include monthly distributions
made in arrears for the Limited Partners electing to receive such distributions
on this basis.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

The Partnership was organized on August 18, 1989, to acquire for cash,
either directly or through joint venture arrangements, both newly constructed
and existing restaurant Properties, as well as land upon which restaurant
Properties were to be constructed, which are leased primarily to operators of
selected national and regional fast-food and family-style Restaurant Chains. The
leases are generally triple-net leases, with the lessee generally responsible
for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and utilities. The
leases provide for minimum base annual rental amounts (payable in monthly
installments) ranging from approximately $49,200 to $251,500. The majority of
the leases provide for percentage rent, based on sales in excess of a specified
amount. In addition, some of the leases provide that, commencing in specified
lease years (generally the sixth lease year), the annual base rent required
under the terms of the lease will increase.

As of December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Partnership owned 26, 24
and 25 Properties directly, respectively. In addition, the Partnership owned 11
Properties indirectly through joint venture or tenancy in common arrangements as
of December 31, 2000, and 13 Properties as of December 31, 2002 and 2001.

Capital Resources

For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, cash from
operating activities was $3,350,597, $3,196,595 and $3,349,897, respectively.
The increase in cash from operating activities during 2002, as compared to 2001,
and the decrease in cash from operating activities during 2001, as compared to
2000, resulted from changes in the Partnership's working capital and changes in
income and expenses.

Other sources and uses of cash included the following during the years
ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

In July 2000, the Partnership sold its Properties in Brooksville,
Bayonet Point and Sun City, Florida, to a third party and received net sales
proceeds totaling approximately $3,402,700, resulting in a total gain of
approximately $484,800. In July 2000, the Partnership reinvested the majority of
these sales proceeds in a Bennigan's Property located in Deerfield, Illinois, at
an approximate cost of $2,462,700. The Partnership acquired this Property from
CNL BB Corp., an affiliate of the General Partners. In addition, in August 2000,
the Partnership also used a portion of these net sales proceeds to acquire an
interest in a Baker's Square Property in Libertyville, Illinois, as
tenants-in-common, with CNL Income Fund IX, Ltd., a Florida limited partnership,
and an affiliate of the General Partners. During 2002, the Partnership and the
affiliate, as tenants-in-common, sold this Property and reinvested the
liquidating distribution in another Property, as described below.

In September 2000, the Partnership sold its property in Jacksonville,
Florida, and received net sales proceeds of approximately $420,000, resulting in
a gain of approximately $127,900. In October 2000, the Partnership reinvested
these sales proceeds in a Property in Hialeah, Florida at an approximate cost of
$472,300.

In March 2001, Middleburg Joint Venture, in which the Partnership owned
a 12.46% interest, sold its Property to the tenant in accordance with the option
under its lease agreement to purchase the Property, for $1,900,000, and recorded
a loss of approximately $61,900. Middleburg Joint Venture was dissolved in
accordance with the joint venture agreement and no gain or loss on the
dissolution of the joint venture was recorded. As a result, the Partnership
received approximately $236,700 as a return of capital for its pro-rata share of
the net sales proceeds. In April 2001, the Partnership reinvested the return of
capital from Middleburg Joint Venture in another joint venture arrangement, CNL
VIII, X, XII Kokomo Joint Venture, with CNL Income Fund X, Ltd. and CNL Income
Fund XII, Ltd., Florida limited partnerships and affiliates of the General
Partners, to purchase and hold one restaurant Property, at a total cost of
approximately $2,112,000. The joint venture acquired the Property from CNL BB
Corp., an affiliate of the General Partners, who had purchased and temporarily
held title to this Property in order to facilitate the acquisition of the
Property by the joint venture. As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership had
contributed approximately $211,200 and had an approximate 10% interest in the
profits and losses of the joint venture.

In May 2001, the Partnership sold its Property in Statesville, North
Carolina, and received net sales proceeds of $877,000, resulting in a gain of
approximately $28,300. In June and July 2001, the Partnership reinvested a
portion of these sales proceeds in two additional Properties, Walker, Louisiana
and Denver, Colorado, as two separate tenancy in common arrangements with
Florida limited partnerships and affiliates of the General Partners. As of
December 31, 2002, the Partnership had contributed approximately $232,300 for a
17% interest, and approximately $422,500 for a 19.30% interest, respectively, to
these tenancies in common.

In September 2001, the borrower of two promissory notes accepted in
1999 in connection with the sale of two of the Partnership's Properties, prepaid
the total outstanding principal balance of approximately $441,500.

In January 2002, the Partnership reinvested the other portion of the
net sales proceeds it received from the sale of the Property in Statesville,
North Carolina, and the prepaid principal received in 2001, in a Denny's
Property located in Ontario, Oregon, at an approximate cost of $654,400.

In February 2002, a tenant, Brandon Fast Food Services, Inc., filed for
bankruptcy. The tenant has neither rejected nor affirmed the one lease it has
with the Partnership. A workout plan has not been approved since all parties
involved have not been able to agree on a workout plan. As of March 10, 2003,
the Partnership has continued receiving rental payments relating to this lease.
While the tenant has neither rejected nor affirmed this lease, there can be no
assurance that the lease will not be rejected in the future. The lost revenues
resulting from the possible rejection of this lease will have an adverse effect
on the results of operations of the Partnership if the Partnership is unable to
re-lease the Property in a timely manner.

In May 2002, the borrower, relating to a promissory note accepted in
1996 in connection with the sale of one of the Partnership's Properties, repaid
the outstanding principal of approximately $917,900. In September 2002, the
Partnership reinvested the prepaid principal in a Property located in Eden
Prairie, Minnesota, at an approximate cost of $1,093,900. The Property was
acquired from CNL Net Lease Investors, L.P. ("NLI"). During 2002, and prior to
the Partnership's acquisition of this property, CNL Financial LP Holding, LP
("CFN") and CNL Net Lease Investors GP Corp. ("GP Corp") purchased the limited
partner's interest and general partner's interest, respectively, of NLI. Prior
to this transaction, an affiliate of the Partnership's General Partners owned a
0.1% interest in NLI and served as a general partner of NLI. The original
general partners of NLI waived their rights to benefit from this transaction.
The acquisition price paid by CFN for the limited partner's interest was based
on the portfolio acquisition price. The Partnership acquired the property at
CFN's cost and did not pay any additional compensation to CFN for the
acquisition of the property. Each CNL entity is an affiliate of the
Partnership's General Partners.

In May 2002, the Partnership also sold its property in Baseball City,
Florida to the tenant and received net sales proceeds of approximately
$1,184,600 resulting in a gain on disposal of discontinued operations of
approximately $279,800. In June 2002, the Partnership reinvested the majority of
the net sales proceeds it received from the sale of this Property in a Taco
Cabana Property located in Denton, Texas, at an approximate cost of $1,147,600.
In June 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II, in which the Partnership owns a
36.8% interest, sold its Property in Columbus, Ohio to the tenant and received
net sales proceeds of approximately $1,215,700, resulting in a gain of
approximately $448,300. The joint venture used the proceeds from the sale of the
property in Columbus, Ohio to acquire a property in Dallas, Texas at an
approximate cost of $1,147,400. The Partnership acquired the Property in Denton,
Texas and the joint venture acquired the property in Dallas, Texas from CNL
Funding 2001-A, LP, a Delaware limited partnership and an affiliate of the
General Partners. CNL Funding 2001-A, LP had purchased and temporarily held
title to the Properties in order to facilitate the acquisition of the Properties
by the Partnership and the joint venture. The purchase price paid by the
Partnership and the joint venture represented the costs incurred by CNL Funding
2001-A, LP to acquire the Properties. The General Partners believe that these
transactions, or a portion thereof, relating to the sales and the reinvestment
of the net sales proceeds, will qualify as a like-kind transaction for federal
income tax purpose.

In addition in June 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II sold its
property in Pontiac, Michigan to the tenant and received net sales proceeds of
approximately $722,600 resulting in a loss of $189,800. The tenant exercised its
option to purchase the Property under the terms of the lease. The Partnership
received approximately $265,900 representing a return of capital for its
pro-rata share of the uninvested net sales proceeds relating to the Property in
Pontiac, Michigan. In August 2002, the Partnership reinvested a portion of the
return of capital to acquire a Property in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as
tenants-in-common, with CNL Income Fund XVII, Ltd., a Florida limited
partnership and an affiliate of the General Partners, at an approximate cost of
$1,883,000 from a third party. The Partnership and the affiliate of the General
Partners entered into an agreement whereby each co-tenant will share in the
profits and losses of each property in proportion to its applicable percentage
interest. As of December 2002, the Partnership contributed approximately
$188,300 for a 10% interest in this property.

In September 2002, the Partnership, as tenants-in-common with CNL
Income Fund IX, Ltd., an affiliate of the General Partners, sold its property in
Libertyville, Illinois, to a third party and received net sales proceeds of
approximately $1,630,400 resulting in a gain of approximately $199,300. The
Partnership owned a 66% interest in this Property. The Partnership and the
affiliate of the General Partner, under a new tenancy in common arrangement,
used the liquidating distribution from the sale of the Property to acquire a
property in Buffalo Grove, Illinois at an approximate cost of $1,588,800. The
Property was acquired from NLI During 2002, and prior to the Partnership's
acquisition of this property, CFN and GP Corp purchased the limited partner's
interest and General Partner's interest, respectively, of NLI. Prior to this
transaction, an affiliate of the Partnership's General Partners owned a 0.1%
interest in NLI and served as a General Partner of NLI. The original general
partners of NLI waived their rights to benefit from this transaction. The
acquisition price paid by CFN for the limited partner's interest was based on
the portfolio acquisition price. The Partnership acquired the Property at CFN's
cost and did not pay any additional compensation to CFN for the acquisition of
the Property. Each CNL entity is an affiliate of the Partnership's General
Partners.

None of the Properties owned by the Partnership or the joint ventures,
in which the Partnership owns an interest, is or may be encumbered. Under its
Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is prohibited from borrowing for any
purpose; provided, however, that the General Partners or their affiliates are
entitled to reimbursement, at cost, for actual expenses incurred by the General
Partners or their affiliates on behalf of the Partnership. Affiliates of the
General Partners from time to time incur certain operating expenses on behalf of
the Partnership for which the Partnership reimburses the affiliates without
interest.

Currently, rental income from the Partnership's Properties is invested
in short-term highly liquid investments such as demand deposit accounts at
commercial banks, money market accounts and certificates of deposit with less
than a 90-day maturity date, pending use of such funds to pay Partnership
expenses, or to make distributions to partners. At December 31, 2002, the
Partnership had $1,571,487 invested in such short-term investments as compared
to $2,085,133 at December 31, 2001. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents at
December 31, 2002, as compared to December 31, 2001, was primarily due to the
reinvestment of the remaining net sales proceeds from the 2001 sale of one of
the Partnership's Properties and the prepaid principal received in 2001, in an
additional Property. As of December 31, 2002, the average interest rate earned
by the Partnership on the rental income deposited in demand deposit accounts at
commercial banks was approximately 1.08% annually. The funds remaining at
December 31, 2002, after payment of distributions and other liabilities, will be
used to invest in an additional Property, and to meet the Partnership's working
capital needs.

Short-Term Liquidity

The Partnership's investment strategy of acquiring Properties for cash
and leasing them under triple-net leases to operators who generally meet
specified financial standards minimizes the Partnership's operating expenses.
The General Partners believe that the leases will continue to generate net cash
flow in excess of operating expenses.

The Partnership's short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily
of the operating expenses of the Partnership.

The General Partners have the right, but not the obligation, to make
additional capital contributions if they deem it appropriate in connection with
the operations of the Partnership.

Due to low operating expenses and ongoing cash flow, the General
Partners believe that the Partnership has sufficient working capital reserves at
this time. In addition, because all leases of the Partnership's Properties are
generally on a triple-net basis, it is not anticipated that a permanent reserve
for maintenance and repairs will be established at this time. To the extent,
however, that the Partnership has insufficient funds for such purposes, the
General Partners will contribute to the Partnership an aggregate amount of up to
one percent of the offering proceeds for maintenance and repairs.

The Partnership generally distributes cash from operations remaining
after the payment of the operating expenses of the Partnership, to the extent
that the General Partners determine that such funds are available for
distribution. Based on cash from operations, the Partnership declared
distributions to the Limited Partners of $3,325,004 for the year ended December
31, 2002, and $3,150,004 for each of the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000.
This represents distributions of $0.10 per Unit for the year ended December 31,
2002, and $0.09 per Unit for each of the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2002, the Partnership declared a special
distribution to the Limited Partners of $175,000, which represented cumulative
excess operating reserves. This special distribution was effectively a return of
a portion of the Limited Partners' investment, although in accordance with the
partnership agreement, the total amount was applied toward the Limited Partners'
10% Preferred Return. No amounts distributed to the Limited Partners for the
years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 are required to be or have been
treated by the Partnership as a return of capital for purposes of calculating
the Limited Partners' return on their adjusted capital contributions. The
Partnership intends to continue to make distributions of cash available for
distribution to the Limited Partners on a quarterly basis.

During 2000, the General Partners waived their right to receive future
distributions from the Partnership, including both distributions of operating
cash flow and distributions of liquidation proceeds, to the extent that the
cumulative amount of such distributions would exceed the balance in the General
Partners' capital account as of December 31, 1999. Accordingly, the General
Partners were not allocated any net income and did not receive any distributions
during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership owed $14,333 and
$20,432, respectively, to affiliates for such amounts as operating expenses and
accounting and administrative services. As of March 15, 2002, the Partnership
had reimbursed the affiliates all such amounts. In addition, as of December 31,
2002, the Partnership had incurred $55,050 in real estate disposition fees due
to an affiliate as a result of services in connection with the sale of several
Properties. The payment of such fees is deferred until the Limited Partners have
received the sum of their 10% Preferred Return and their adjusted capital
contributions. Other liabilities, including distributions payable, increased to
$1,056,503 at December 31, 2002, from $855,851 at December 31, 2001, primarily
as a result of accruing a special distribution of $175,000 which represented
cumulative excess operating reserves. The General Partners believe that the
Partnership has sufficient cash on hand to meet its current working capital
needs.

Long-Term Liquidity

The Partnership has no long-term debt or other long-term liquidity
requirements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership's leases are accounted for under the provisions of
Statement of Accounting Standard No. 13, "Accounting for Leases" ("FAS 13"), and
have been accounted for using either the direct financing or the operating
method. FAS 13 requires management to estimate the economic life of the leased
property, the residual value of the leased property and the present value of
minimum lease payments to be received from the tenant. In addition, management
assumes that all payments to be received under its leases are collectible.
Changes in management's estimates or assumptions regarding collectibility of
lease payments could result in a change in accounting for the lease at the
inception of the lease.

The Partnership accounts for its unconsolidated joint ventures using
the equity method of accounting. Under generally accepted accounting principles,
the equity method of accounting is appropriate for entities that are partially
owned by the Partnership, but for which operations of the investee are shared
with other partners. The Partnership's joint venture agreements require the
consent of all partners on all key decisions affecting the operations of the
underlying Property.

Management reviews the Partnership's Properties and investments in
unconsolidated entities periodically for impairment at least once a year or
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
an asset may not be recoverable. The assessment is based on the carrying amount
of the Property or investment at the date it is tested for recoverability
compared to the sum of the estimated future cash flows expected to result from
its operation and sale through the expected holding period. If an impairment is
indicated, the asset is adjusted to its estimated fair value.

When the Partnership makes the decision to sell or commits to a plan to
sell a Property, its operating results are reported as discontinued operations.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2002 to the year ended December 31,
2001

Total rental revenues were $2,719,772 for the year ended December 31,
2002 as compared to $2,552,879 in the same period in 2001. The increase in
rental revenues during 2002, as compared to the same period in 2001, was
primarily due to the fact that in 2002 the Partnership reinvested the net
proceeds from the 2001 and 2002 sales of Statesville, North Carolina and
Baseball City, Florida and the prepaid principal received in 2001 and 2002, in
three Properties located in Ontario, Oregon; Denton, Texas; and Eden Prairie,
Minnesota. The increase in rental revenues during 2002 was partially offset by
the sale of a Property in 2001.

During 2001, the tenant of the Property in North Fort Myers, Florida,
vacated the Property and ceased making rental payments on this Property. As a
result, the Partnership stopped recording rental revenues relating to this
Property. The lease was terminated in July 2001. In September 2001, the
Partnership entered into a new lease with a new tenant for this Property for
which rental payments are lower than rents due under the previous lease;
therefore, the Partnership expects that rental revenues in future periods will
remain at reduced amounts. However, the General Partners do not anticipate that
any decrease in rental revenues relating to the new lease will have a material
adverse affect on the Partnership's financial position or results of operations.

During the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership also
earned $88,664 and $80,176, respectively, in contingent rental income.

During the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership
earned $649,791 and $390,505, respectively, attributable to the net income
earned by unconsolidated joint ventures. The increase in operating results
reported by unconsolidated joint ventures during 2002, as compared to the same
period in 2001, was partially due to the fact that the Partnership, as
tenants-in-common with CNL Income Fund IX, Ltd., an affiliate of the General
Partners, sold its property in Libertyville, Illinois, to a third party and
received net sales proceeds of approximately $1,630,400 resulting in a gain of
approximately $199,300. The Partnership owned a 66% interest in this property.
The Partnership recognized its pro-rata share of the net gain resulting from
this sale.

In addition, CNL Restaurant Investment II, in which the Partnership
owns a 36.8% interest, sold its property in Columbus, Ohio to the tenant and
received net sales proceeds of approximately $1,215,700 resulting in a gain of
approximately $448,300. CNL Restaurant Investments II, also sold its property in
Pontiac, Michigan to the tenant and received net sales proceeds of approximately
$722,600 resulting in a loss of $189,800. The Partnership recognized its
pro-rata share of the net gain resulting from these sales.

Net operating results reported by unconsolidated joint ventures also
increased during 2002, because in 2002 and 2001, the Partnership invested in a
joint venture and in four Properties, each as a separate tenants-in-common
arrangement, with Florida limited partnerships and affiliates of the General
Partners. In addition, net operating results reported by unconsolidated joint
ventures were lower in 2001 because Middleburg Joint Venture sold its Property
and recognized a loss of approximately $61,900.

During 2002, two lessees (or groups of affiliated lessees) of the
Partnership and its consolidated joint venture, Golden Corral Corporation, and
the affiliated entities under common control, Carrols Corporation and Texas Taco
Cabana (hereinafter referred to as "Carrols Corporation"), each contributed more
than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental revenues and mortgage
interest income (including rental revenues from the Partnership's consolidated
joint venture and the Partnership's share of rental revenues from Properties
owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and Properties owned with affiliates of
the General Partners as tenants-in-common). As of December 31, 2002, Golden
Corral Corporation was the lessee under leases relating to five restaurants, and
Carrols Corporation was the lessee under leases relating to seven restaurants.
It is anticipated that, based on the minimum rental payments required by the
leases, these two lessees (or groups of affiliated lessees) each will continue
to contribute more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental revenues
and mortgage interest income in 2003. In addition, two Restaurant Chains, Golden
Corral Family Steakhouse Restaurants ("Golden Corral") and Burger King, each
accounted for more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental revenues
and mortgage interest income in 2002 (including rental revenues from the
Partnership's consolidated joint venture and the Partnership's share of rental
revenues from Properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and Properties
owned with affiliates of the General Partners as tenants-in-common). In 2003, it
is anticipated that these two Restaurant Chains each will continue to account
for more than ten percent of the Partnership's total rental revenues and
mortgage interest income to which the Partnership is entitled under the terms of
the leases. Any failure of these lessees or Restaurant Chains could materially
affect the Partnership's income if the Partnership is not able to re-lease the
Properties in a timely manner.

During the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership also
earned $66,376 and $270,989, respectively, in interest and other income,
respectively. The decrease in interest and other income during 2002 was
partially due to a reduction in interest income as a result of the prepayment of
principal on two mortgage notes of approximately $441,500 during 2001, and the
prepayment of principal on a third mortgage note of approximately $917,900
during 2002. The proceeds were reinvested in 2002 in a Property in Eden Prairie,
Minnesota. During 2001, the Partnership received and recorded as income
additional amounts relating to a settlement from the Florida Department of
Transportation for a right-of-way taking relating to a parcel of land on its
Property in Brooksville, Florida. No such income was received during 2002.

Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense and
provision for write-down of assets, were $749,704 and $1,063,333 for the years
ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Operating expenses were higher
during 2001, primarily as a result of the recording of provisions for write-down
of assets in the amounts of $181,815 and $117,664, relating to the Properties in
North Fort Myers, Florida, and Statesville, North Carolina because the tenants
ceased operations and vacated the Properties. The provisions represented the
difference between the carrying value of the Properties, and their estimated
fair value. The Partnership also incurred expenses such as, real estate taxes,
legal, and repairs and maintenance, relating to the Property in North Fort
Myers, Florida during 2001. In September 2001, the Partnership entered into a
new lease with a new tenant for the Property in North Fort Myers, Florida, and
the new tenant is responsible for the property expenses. The decrease in
operating expenses was partially offset by legal expenses incurred in 2002
relating to the filing for bankruptcy of a tenant, Brandon Fast Food Services,
Inc. As of March 10, 2003, the Partnership has continued receiving rental
payments relating to this lease. While the tenant has neither rejected nor
affirmed the one lease it has with the Partnership relating to the Property in
Brandon, Florida, there can be no assurance that the lease will not be rejected
in the future. The lost revenues that would result if the tenant rejects this
lease will have an adverse effect on the results of operations of the
Partnership if the Partnership is unable to lease the Property in a timely
manner.

In addition, the decrease in operating expenses during 2002 was due to
lower administrative expenses incurred for servicing the Partnership and its
Properties and due to a decrease in state taxes. The decrease in operating
expenses during 2002 was partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense
due to the purchase of three Properties during 2002 and the fact that during
2001, the Partnership reclassified the lease relating to the Property in North
Fort Myers, Florida from direct financial leases to operating leases as a result
of the tenant vacating the Property.

The decrease in operating expenses during 2002 was partially offset by
higher property expenses in 2002 because the Partnership elected to reimburse
the tenant of several Golden Corral for certain renovation costs.

Effective January 1, 2002, the Partnership adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement requires that a long-lived asset
be tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of
a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the
asset. The assessment is based on the carrying amount of the asset at the date
it is tested for recoverability. An impairment loss is recognized when the
carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its estimated fair value. If an
impairment is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of a long-lived asset is
its new cost basis. The statement also requires that the results of operations
of a component of an entity that either has been disposed of or is classified as
held for sale be reported as a discontinued operation if the disposal activity
was initiated subsequent to the adoption of the Standard.

The Property in Statesville, North Carolina was sold in May 2001, and
the Partnership received net sales proceeds of approximately $877,000 resulting
in a gain of approximately $28,300.

During 2002, the Partnership identified and sold the Property in
Baseball City, Florida, which met the criteria of this standard. In May 2002,
the Partnership received net proceeds relating to the sale of this Property of
approximately $1,184,600, resulting in a gain of approximately $279,800. The
financial results of this Property were classified as Discontinued Operations in
the accompanying financial statements. The majority of the net sales proceeds
from the sale of this Property were reinvested in a Property in Denton, Texas.

During 2002, CNL Restaurant Investments II, in which the Partnership
owns a 36.8% interest, identified and sold two Properties in Columbus, Ohio and
Pontiac, Michigan, which met the criteria of this standard. In June 2002, the
joint venture sold its property in Columbus, Ohio to the tenant and received net
sales proceeds of approximately $1,215,700 resulting in a gain of approximately
$448,300. In addition in June 2002, this joint venture sold its property in
Pontiac, Michigan to the tenant and received net sales proceeds of approximately
$722,600 resulting in a loss of $189,800. The joint venture used the proceeds
from the sale of the property in Columbus, Ohio to acquire a property in Dallas,
Texas. The Partnership received approximately $265,900 representing a return of
capital for its pro-rata share of the uninvested net sales proceeds relating to
the Property in Pontiac, Michigan. In August 2002, the Partnership reinvested a
portion of the return of capital in a Property in Kenosha, Wisconsin as
tenants-in-common with a Florida limited partnership and an affiliate of the
General Partners.

In addition, during 2002, the Partnership, as tenants-in common with
CNL Income Fund IX, Ltd., an affiliate of the general partners, identified and
sold the Property in Libertyville, Illinois, to a third party and received net
sales proceeds of approximately $1,630,400 resulting in a gain of approximately
$199,300. The Partnership owned a 66% interest in this property. The Partnership
and CNL IX, as a new tenancy in common arrangement, used the liquidating
distribution from the sale of the property to acquire a property in Buffalo
Grove, Illinois.

The financial results of the Properties in Columbus, Ohio; Pontiac,
Michigan; and Libertyville, Illinois were reported as Discontinued Operations in
the condensed financial information for the unconsolidated joint ventures and
the properties held as tenants-in-common presented in the footnotes to the
accompanying financial statements.

Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2001 to the year ended December 31,
2000

Total rental revenues were $2,552,879 for the year ended December 31,
2001 as compared to $2,755,294 in the same period in 2000. The decrease in
rental revenues during 2001, as compared to the same period in 2000, was
partially the result of the Partnership selling several Properties during both
years. The decrease in rental revenues was partially offset by an increase in
rental revenues resulting from the Partnership reinvesting a portion of the net
sales proceeds in two Properties in Deerfield, Illinois and Hialeah, Florida.
Rental revenues are expected to remain at reduced amounts while equity in
earnings of joint ventures is expected to increase since the Partnership
reinvested a portion of the net sales proceeds, from the sale of a Property in
2001, in two Properties with affiliates of the General Partners, as two separate
tenancies in common.

Rental revenues also decreased during 2001, because during 2001, the
tenant of the Property in North Fort Myers, Florida, vacated the Property and
ceased making rental payments. As a result, the Partnership stopped recording
rental revenues relating to this Property. In September 2001, the Partnership
entered into a new lease with a new tenant for this Property for which rental
payments commenced in December 2001.

During the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Partnership also
earned $80,176 and $102,566, respectively, in contingent rental income. The
decrease in contingent rental income during 2001, as compared to the same period
in 2000, was primarily attributable to a decrease in gross sales for certain
restaurant Properties requiring the payment of contingent rental income.

During the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Partnership
earned $390,505 and $319,184, respectively, attributable to net income earned by
unconsolidated joint ventures. The increase in net income earned by
unconsolidated joint ventures during 2001, as compared to the same period in
2000, was primarily due to the fact that the Partnership invested in 2000 in a
Property as tenants-in-common with affiliates of the General Partners, and in
2001 in a Joint Venture and in a Property, as tenants-in-common, with affiliates
of the General Partners. The sale in 2001 of the Property owned by Middleburg
Joint Venture partially offset the increase in net income earned by the
unconsolidated joint ventures. In conjunction with the sale of the Property,
Middleburg Joint Venture recognized a loss of approximately $61,900 in March
2001.

During the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Partnership also
earned $270,989 and $271,702 in interest and other income. Interest income
during 2001 was lower because the Partnership collected $441,500, representing
the outstanding principal balance of a mortgage note. The decrease in interest
income was primarily offset by the fact that during 2001, the Partnership
received and recorded as income additional amounts relating to a settlement from
the Florida Department of Transportation for a right-of-way taking relating to a
parcel of land on its Property in Brooksville, Florida. The proceeds were used
to pay liabilities of the Partnership.

Operating expenses, including depreciation expense and provisions for
write-down of assets, were $1,063,333 and $554,511 for the years ended December
31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During 2001, the Partnership recorded a
provision for write-down of assets in the amount of $181,815 relating to the
Property in North Fort Myers, Florida, due to the fact that the tenant ceased
operations and vacated this Property. The provision represented the difference
between the carrying value of the Property and its estimated fair value at
December 31, 2001. In addition, during 2001, the Partnership recorded a
provision for write-down of assets of $117,664 relating to the property located
in Statesville, North Carolina. The tenant of the Property defaulted under the
terms of its lease, discontinued operations and vacated the Property. The
provision represented the difference between the carrying value of the property
and its estimated fair value. The Partnership sold this Property in May 2001.

The increase in operating expenses during 2001, as compared to 2000,
was partially attributable to an increase in the costs incurred for
administrative expenses for servicing the Partnership and its Properties, and to
higher state taxes in some states in which the Partnership conducts business. In
addition, the Partnership incurred real estate taxes during 2001 relating to the
Property in North Fort Myers, Florida, due to the tenant vacating the Property.
The Partnership has re-leased this Property, and the new tenant is responsible
for such expenses since December 2001.

During 2000, the Partnership incurred $32,424 in transaction costs
related to the General Partners retaining financial and legal advisors to assist
them in evaluating and negotiating the proposed merger with CNL American
Properties Fund, Inc. ("APF"). On March 1, 2000, the General Partners and APF
mutually agreed to terminate the merger.

As a result of the sales of the Properties, described above, the
Partnership recorded a total gain of $28,301 and $612,693 during 2001 and 2000.

The Partnership's leases as of December 31, 2002, are generally
triple-net leases and contain provisions that the General Partners believe
mitigate the adverse effect of inflation. Such provisions include clauses
requiring the payment of percentage rent based on certain restaurant sales above
a specified level and/or automatic increases in base rent at specified times
during the term of the lease. Inflation, overall, has had a minimal effect on
results of operations of the Partnership. Continued inflation may cause capital
appreciation of the Partnership's Properties. Inflation and changing prices,
however, also may have an adverse impact on the sales of the restaurants and on
potential capital appreciation of the Properties.

The restaurant industry has been relatively resilient during this
volatile time with steady performance during 2002. However, the industry remains
in a state of cautious optimism. Restaurant operators expect their business to
be better in 2003, according to a nationwide survey conducted by the National
Restaurant Association, but are concerned by the budget deficits being
experienced by many states and the potential of new taxes on the industry to
alleviate the situation.

In January 2003, FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"),
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" to expand upon and strengthen
existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include the
assets, liabilities and activities of another entity in its financial
statements. To improve financial reporting by companies involved with variable
interest entities (more commonly referred to as special-purpose entities or
off-balance sheet structures), FIN 46 requires that a variable interest entity
be considered by a company if that company is subject to a majority risk of loss
from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority
of the entity's residual returns or both. Prior to FIN 46, a company generally
included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it
controlled the entity through voting interests. Consolidation of variable
interests entities will provide more complete information about the resources,
obligations, risks and opportunities of the consolidated company. The
consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest
entities created after January 31, 2003, and to older entities in the first
fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Management believes
adoption of this standard may result in either consolidation or additional
disclosure requirements with respect to the Partnership's unconsolidated joint
ventures or Properties held with affiliates of the General Partners as
tenants-in-common, which are currently accounted for under the equity method.
However, such consolidation is not expected to significantly impact the
Partnership's results of operations.

1. Significant Accounting Policies:
-------------------------------

Organization and Nature of Business - CNL Income Fund VIII, Ltd. (the
"Partnership") is a Florida limited partnership that was organized for
the purpose of acquiring both newly constructed and existing restaurant
properties, as well as properties upon which restaurants were to be
constructed, which are leased primarily to operators of national and
regional fast-food and family-style restaurant chains.

The general partners of the Partnership are CNL Realty Corporation (the
"Corporate General Partner"), James M. Seneff, Jr. and Robert A.
Bourne. Mr. Seneff and Mr. Bourne are also 50 percent shareholders of
the Corporate general partner. The general partners have responsibility
for managing the day-to-day operations of the Partnership.

Real Estate and Lease Accounting - The Partnership records the real
estate property acquisitions at cost. The properties are leased to
third parties generally on a triple-net basis, whereby the tenant is
generally responsible for all operating expenses relating to the
property, including property taxes, insurance, maintenance and repairs.
During the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, tenants paid
directly to real estate taxing authorities approximately $477,000,
$433,000, and $411,500, respectively, in real estate taxes in
accordance with the terms of their triple net leases with the
Partnership.

The leases of the Partnership provide for base minimum annual rental
payments payable in monthly installments. In addition, certain leases
provide for contingent rental revenues based on the tenants' gross
sales in excess of a specified threshold. The Partnership defers
recognition of the contingent rental revenues until the defined
thresholds are met. The leases are accounted for using either the
direct financing or the operating method. Such methods are described
below:

Direct financing method - Leases accounted for using the
direct financing method are recorded at their net investment
(which at the inception of the lease generally represents the
cost of the asset). 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 investment in the
leases. For property leases classified as direct financing
leases, the building portions of the majority of property
leases are accounted for as direct financing leases while the
land portions of these leases are accounted for as operating
leases.

Operating method - Real estate property leases accounted for
using the operating method are recorded at cost, revenue is
recognized as rentals are earned and depreciation is charged
to operations as incurred. Buildings are depreciated on the
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 30
years. When scheduled rentals vary during the lease term,
income is recognized on a straight-line basis so as to produce
a constant periodic rent over the lease term commencing on the
date the property is placed in service.

Accrued rental income represents the aggregate amount of
income recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of
scheduled rental payments to date.

1. Significant Accounting Policies - Continued:
-------------------------------------------

Substantially all leases are for 14 to 25 years and provide for minimum
and contingent rentals. The lease options generally allow tenants to
renew the leases for two to four successive five-year periods subject
to the same terms and conditions of the initial lease. Most leases also
allow the tenant to purchase the property at fair market value after a
specified portion of the lease has elapsed.

When the properties are sold, the related cost and accumulated
depreciation for operating leases and the net investment for direct
financing leases, plus any accrued rental income, are removed from the
accounts and gains or losses from sales are reflected in income. The
General Partners of the Partnership review the properties for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through
operations. The General Partners determine whether an impairment in
value has occurred by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash
flows, including the residual value of the property, with the carrying
cost of the individual property. If an impairment is indicated, the
assets are adjusted to their estimated fair value.

When the collection of amounts recorded as rental or other income is
considered to be doubtful, a provision is recorded to increase the
allowance for doubtful accounts. If amounts are subsequently determined
to be uncollectible, the corresponding receivable and allowance for
doubtful accounts are decreased accordingly.

Investment in Joint Ventures - The Partnership accounts for its 87.68%
interest in Woodway Joint Venture using the consolidation method.
Minority interest represents the minority joint venture partner's
proportionate share of the equity in the Partnership's consolidated
joint venture. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated.

The Partnership's investments in Asheville Joint Venture; CNL
Restaurant Investments II; Bossier City Joint Venture; and CNL VIII, X,
XII Kokomo Joint Venture; and a property in Walker, Louisiana; a
property in Denver, Colorado; a property in Kenosha, Wisconsin; and a
property in Buffalo Grove, Illinois for which each property is held
with affiliates of the General Partners as tenants-in-common, are
accounted for using the equity method since each joint venture
agreement requires the consent of all partners on all key decisions
affecting the operations of the underlying property.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Partnership considers all highly liquid
investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to
be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand
deposits at commercial banks and money market funds (some of which are
backed by government securities). Cash equivalents are stated at cost
plus accrued interest, which approximates market value.

Cash accounts maintained on behalf of the Partnership in demand
deposits at commercial banks and money market funds may exceed
federally insured levels; however, the Partnership has not experienced
any losses in such accounts.

Income Taxes - Under Section 701 of the Internal Revenue Code, all
income, expenses and tax credit items flow through to the partners for
tax purposes. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is
provided in the accompanying financial statements. The Partnership is
subject to certain state taxes on its income and property.

Additionally, for tax purposes, syndication costs are included in
Partnership equity and in the basis of each partner's investment. For
financial reporting purposes, syndication costs represent a reduction
of Partnership equity and a reduction in the basis of each partner's
investment.

1. Significant Accounting Policies - Continued:
-------------------------------------------

Use of Estimates - The General Partners of the Partnership have made a
number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets
and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. The more significant areas requiring
the use of management estimates relate to the allowance for doubtful
accounts and future cash flows associated with long-lived assets.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification - Certain items in the prior year's financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to 2002 presentation,
including a change in presentation of the statement of cash flows from
the direct to the indirect method. These reclassifications had no
effect on partner's capital, net income or cash flows.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 ("FAS 144") -
Effective January 1, 2002, the Partnership adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement requires that a
long-lived asset be tested for recoverability whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be
recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not
recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows
expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.
The assessment is based on the carrying amount of the asset at the date
it is tested for recoverability. An impairment loss is recognized when
the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its estimated fair
value. If an impairment is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of
a long-lived asset is its new cost basis. The statement also requires
that the results of operations of a component of an entity that either
has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale be reported as a
discontinued operation if the disposal activity was initiated
subsequent to the adoption of the Standard.

FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46") - In January 2003, FASB issued
FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities" to expand upon and strengthen existing accounting
guidance that addresses when a company should include the assets,
liabilities and activities of another entity in its financial
statements. To improve financial reporting by companies involved with
variable interest entities (more commonly referred to as
special-purpose entities or off-balance sheet structures), FIN 46
requires that a variable interest entity be considered by a company if
that company is subject to a majority risk of loss from the variable
interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the
entity's residual returns or both. Prior to FIN 46, a company generally
included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only
if it controlled the entity through voting interests. Consolidation of
variable interests entities will provide more complete information
about the resources, obligations, risks and opportunities of the
consolidated company. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply
immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31,
2003, and to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. Management believes adoption of this
standard may result in either consolidation or additional disclosure
requirements with respect to the Partnership's unconsolidated joint
ventures or properties held with affiliates of the general partners as
tenants-in-common, which are currently accounted for under the equity
method. However, such consolidation is not expected to significantly
impact the Partnership's results of operations.

================= ===============

In July 2000 and May 2001, the Partnership sold two and one properties,
respectively, for which the building portion had been classified as a
direct financing lease. Accordingly, the gross investment (minimum
lease payments receivable and the estimated residual value) and
unearned income relating to the building were removed from the accounts
and the gain from the sale of the property was reflected in income.

At June 30, 2001, the Partnership established a provision for
write-down of assets of $88,144 for its property in North Fort Myers,
Florida, because the tenant ceased operations and vacated this
property. The provision represented the difference between the carrying
value of the property and its estimated fair value at June 30, 2001.
During July 2001, this lease was terminated. As a result, the
Partnership reclassified the lease from direct financing leases to real
estate properties with operating leases. No loss on the
reclassification of the direct financing lease was recorded.

the profits and losses of Asheville Joint Venture, CNL Restaurant
Investments II, Bossier City Joint Venture, and CNL VIII, X, XII Kokomo
Joint Venture, respectively. The remaining interests in these joint
ventures are held by affiliates of the Partnership which have the same
general partners. Asheville Joint Venture, Bossier City Joint Venture,
and CNL VIII, X, XII Kokomo Joint Venture each owns and leases one
property, and CNL Restaurant Investments II owns and leases five
properties, to an operator of national fast-food or family-style
restaurants. In addition, the Partnership owns properties in Walker,
Louisiana; Denver, Colorado; Kenosha, Wisconsin; and Buffalo Grove,
Illinois as tenants-in-common with affiliates of the General Partners.
As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned a 17%, 19.3%, 10%, and
66% interest, respectively, in these properties, as four separate
tenancy-in common arrangements.

In August 2000, the Partnership used a portion of the net sales
proceeds from sale of its properties to acquire an interest in a
Baker's Square property in Libertyville, Illinois, with CNL Income Fund
IX, Ltd., an affiliate of the general partners. In September 2002, the
tenancy in common sold its property in Libertyville, Illinois, to a
third party and received net sales proceeds of approximately $1,630,400
resulting in a gain of approximately $199,300. The Partnership owned a
66% interest in this property. The Partnership and CNL IX, as a new
tenancy in common arrangement, used the liquidating distribution from
the sale of the property to acquire a property in Buffalo Grove,
Illinois at an approximate cost of $1,588,800. The property was
acquired from CNL Net Lease Investors, L.P., an affiliate of the
general partners. As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned a 66%
interest in this property.

In March 2001, Middleburg Joint Venture, in which the Partnership owned

the purchase option under the lease agreement, for $1,900,000, and
recorded a loss of approximately $61,900. The Partnership dissolved the
joint venture and did not recognize any gain or loss on the dissolution
of the joint venture. As a result, the Partnership received
approximately $236,700 as a return of capital for its pro-rata share of
the net sales proceeds.

In April 2001, the Partnership reinvested the amounts received as a
return of capital from Middleburg Joint Venture in another joint
venture arrangement, CNL VIII, X, XII Kokomo Joint Venture, with CNL
Income Fund X, Ltd. and CNL Income Fund XII, Ltd., both affiliates of
the general partners. The Partnership acquired this interest from CNL

interest in the profits and losses of the joint venture. The
Partnership accounts for its investment in this joint venture under the
equity method since the joint venture agreement requires the consent of
all partners on all key decisions affecting the operations of the
underlying property.

In June 2001, the Partnership reinvested a portion of the sales
proceeds from the property in Statesville, North Carolina, in an
additional property in Walker, Louisiana as tenants-in-common with CNL

resulting in a loss of $189,800. The joint venture used the proceeds
from the sale of the property in Columbus, Ohio to acquire a property
in Dallas, Texas at an approximate cost of $1,147,400. The joint
venture acquired this property from CNL Funding 2001-A, LP, an
affiliate of the general partners. The Partnership received
approximately $265,900 representing a return of capital for its
pro-rata share of the uninvested net sales proceeds relating to the
Property in Pontiac, Michigan. In August 2002, the Partnership
reinvested a portion of the return of capital in a Property in Kenosha,
Wisconsin as tenants-in-common with CNL Income Fund XVII, Ltd. ("CNL

In addition, in connection with the 1996 sale of its property in
Orlando, Florida, the Partnership accepted a promissory note in the
principal sum of $1,388,568, representing the gross sales price of the
property. The promissory note bore interest at a rate of 10.75% per
annum, was collateralized by a mortgage on the property and was being
collected in 12 monthly installments of interest only, in 17 monthly
installments of $15,413 consisting of principal and interest, and
thereafter in 151 monthly installments of $12,633 consisting of
principal and interest. In 1999, the borrower repaid a portion of the
principal in the amount of $272,500. In 2002, the borrower repaid
approximately $917,900 which represented the remaining outstanding
principal balance.

The mortgage notes receivable consisted of the following at December

7. Allocations and Distributions:
-----------------------------

From inception through December 31, 1999, generally, all net income and
net losses of the Partnership, excluding gains and losses from the sale
of properties, were allocated 99% to the limited partners and one
percent to the General Partners. From inception through December 31,
1999, distributions of net cash flow were made 99% to the limited
partners and one percent to the General Partners; however, the one
percent of net cash flow to be distributed to the General Partners was
subordinated to receipt by the limited partners of an aggregate, ten
percent, cumulative, noncompounded annual return on their adjusted
capital contributions (the "10% Preferred Return").

From inception through December 31, 1999, generally, net sales proceeds
from the sale of properties not in liquidation of the Partnership, to
the extent distributed, were distributed first to the limited partners
in an amount sufficient to provide them with their 10% Preferred
Return, plus the return of their adjusted capital contributions. The
General Partners then received, to the extent previously subordinated
and unpaid, a one percent interest in all prior distributions of net
cash flow and a return of their capital contributions. Any remaining
sales proceeds were distributed 95 percent to the limited partners and
five percent to the General Partners. Any gain from the sale of a
property not in liquidation of the Partnership was, in general,
allocated in the same manner as net sales proceeds are distributable.
Any loss from the sale of a property was, in general, allocated first,
on a pro rata basis, to partners with positive balances in their
capital accounts; thereafter, 95 percent to the limited partners and
five percent to the General Partners.

Generally, net sales proceeds from a liquidating sale of properties,
will be used in the following order: (i) first to pay and discharge all
of the Partnership's liabilities to creditors, (ii) second, to
establish reserves that may be deemed necessary for any anticipated or
unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership, (iii) third,
to pay all of the Partnership's liabilities, if any, to the general and
limited partners, (iv) fourth, after allocations of net income, gains
and/or losses, to distribute to the partners with positive capital
account balances, in proportion to such balances, up to amounts
sufficient to reduce such positive balances to zero, and (v)
thereafter, any funds remaining shall then be distributed 95 percent to
the limited partners and five percent to the General Partners.

Effective January 1, 2000, the General Partners waived their right to
receive future distributions from the Partnership, including both
distributions of operating cash flow and distributions of liquidation
proceeds, to the extent that the cumulative amount of such
distributions would exceed the balance in the General Partners' capital
account as of December 31, 1999. Accordingly, for years commencing
January 1, 2000 and after, the Partnership's net income will be
allocated entirely among the limited partners. However, if losses are
allocated to the general partners in a year, an amount of income equal
to the sum of such losses may be allocated to the General Partners in
succeeding years. Accordingly, the General Partners were not allocated
any net income and did not receive any distributions for the years
ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Partnership declared
distributions to the Limited Partners of $3,325,004. During each of the
years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Partnership declared

9. Related Party Transactions:
--------------------------

One of the individual general partners, James M. Seneff, Jr., is one of
the principal shareholders of CNL Holdings, Inc. The other individual
general partner, Robert A. Bourne, serves as President and Treasurer of
CNL Financial Group, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of CNL Holdings,
Inc. CNL APF Partners, LP, a wholly owned subsidiary of CNL American
Properties Fund, Inc. ("APF") served as the Partnership's advisor until
January 1, 2002, when it assigned its rights and obligations under a
management agreement to RAI Restaurants, Inc. (formerly known as CNL
Restaurants XVIII, Inc.). RAI Restaurants, Inc. ("the Advisor") is a
wholly owned subsidiary of APF. The individual general partners are
stockholders and directors of APF.

The Advisor provides services relating to management of the Partnership
and its properties pursuant to a management agreement with the
Partnership. In connection therewith, the Partnership has agreed to pay
the Advisor an annual, noncumulative, subordinated management fee of
one percent of the sum of gross revenues from properties wholly owned
by the Partnership and the Partnership's allocable share of gross
revenues from joint ventures, but not in excess of competitive fees for
comparable services. These fees will be incurred and will be payable
only after the limited partners receive their 10% Preferred Return. Due
to the fact that these fees are noncumulative, if the limited partners
have not received their 10% Preferred Return in any particular year, no
management fees will be due or payable for such year. As a result of
such threshold, no management fees were incurred during the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

The Advisor is also entitled to receive a deferred, subordinated real
estate disposition fee, payable upon the sale of one or more properties
based on the lesser of one-half of a competitive real estate commission
or three percent of the sales price if the Advisor provides a
substantial amount of services in connection with the sale. However, if
the net sales proceeds are reinvested in a replacement property, no
such real estate disposition fees will be incurred until such
replacement property is sold and the net sales proceeds are
distributed. The payment of the real estate disposition fee is
subordinated to receipt by the limited partners of their aggregate 10%
Preferred Return, plus their adjusted capital contributions. No
deferred, subordinated real estate disposition fees were incurred for
the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

During the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000, the
Partnership's advisor and its affiliates provided accounting and
administrative services. The Partnership incurred $184,100 $201,158,
and $95,548, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000,
respectively, for such services.

In April 2001, the Partnership, CNL Income Fund X, Ltd., and CNL Income
Fund XII, Ltd., through a joint venture agreement, acquired an interest
in a Golden Corral property from CNL BB Corp., an affiliate of the
general partners, at an approximate cost of $2,112,000. CNL Income Fund
X, Ltd. and CNL Income Fund XII, Ltd., are Florida limited partnerships
and affiliates of the general partners. CNL BB Corp. had purchased and
temporarily held title to this property in order to facilitate the
acquisition of the property by the Partnership. The purchase price paid
by the Partnership represents the costs incurred by CNL BB Corp. to
acquire and carry the property.

order to facilitate the acquisition of the properties by the

In September 2002, the Partnership acquired a property, in Eden
Prairie, Minnesota, from CNL Net Lease Investors, L.P. ("NLI"), at an

prior to the Partnership's acquisition of these properties, CNL
Financial LP Holding, LP ("CFN") and CNL Net Lease Investors GP Corp.
("GP Corp") purchased the limited partner's interest and general
partner's interest, respectively, of NLI. Prior to this transaction, an
affiliate of the Partnership's general partners owned a 0.1% interest
in NLI and served as a general partner of NLI. The original general
partners of NLI waived their rights to benefit from this transaction.
The acquisition price paid by CFN for the limited partner's interest
was based on the portfolio acquisition price. The Partnership acquired
the properties at CFN's cost and did not pay any additional
compensation to CFN for the acquisition of the properties. Each CNL
entity is an affiliate of the Partnership's general partners.

interest and general partner's interest, respectively, of NLI. Prior to this
transaction, an affiliate of the Partnership's general partners owned a 0.1%
interest in NLI and served as a general partner of NLI. The original general
partners of NLI waived their rights to benefit from this transaction. The
acquisition price paid by CFN for the limited partner's interest was based on
the portfolio acquisition price. The Partnership acquired the properties at
CFN's cost and did not pay any additional compensation to CFN for the
acquisition of the properties. Each CNL entity is an affiliate of the
Partnership's general partners.


Item 14. Controls and Procedures

The General Partners maintain a set of disclosure controls and
procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the
Partnership's filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. The principal executive
and financial officers of the corporate General Partner have evaluated the
Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures within 90 days prior to the
filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and have determined that such
disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Subsequent to the above evaluation, there were no significant changes
in internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these
controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
