NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2002

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements, some of which are unaudited, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the partnership’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the partnership’s financial position at September 30, 2002, the results of operations and cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2002.

NOTE 2 — NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT

Net income per limited partnership unit is based upon the weighted average number of units outstanding during the periods presented which amounted to 27,006 in 2002 and 2001.

Pursuant to the partnership agreement, annual partnership income or loss is allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited partners. Partnership gains from any sale or refinancing will be allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited partners until allocated gains and profits equal losses, distributions and syndication costs previously allocated. Additional gains will be allocated 15 percent to the General Partner and 85 percent to the limited partners.

NOTE 3 — LEASING ACTIVITIES

The partnership leases certain properties for operation of restaurants to Del Taco, Inc. on a triple net basis. The leases are for terms of 35 years commencing with the completion of the restaurant facility located on each property and require monthly rentals equal to 12 percent of the gross sales of the restaurants. There is no minimum rental under any of the leases.

For the three months ended September 30, 2002, the five restaurants operated by Del Taco, for which the partnership is the lessor, had combined, unaudited sales of $1,266,317 and net income of $97,939 as compared to $1,239,022 and $102,945 respectively, for the corresponding period in 2001. Net income by restaurant includes charges for general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with supervision of restaurant operations and interest expense.

NOTE 3 — LEASING ACTIVITIES — continued

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the five restaurants operated by Del Taco, for which the partnership is the lessor, had combined, unaudited sales of $3,748,418 and net income of $288,415 as compared to $3,565,163 and $276,567 respectively, for the corresponding period in 2001.

NOTE 4 — TRANSACTIONS WITH DEL TACO

The receivable from General Partner consists primarily of rent accrued for the month of September. The September rent was collected on October 14, 2002.

Del Taco, Inc. serves in the capacity of general partner in other partnerships which are engaged in the business of operating restaurants and three other partnerships which were formed for the purpose of acquiring real property in California for construction of Mexican-American restaurants for lease under long-term agreements to Del Taco, Inc. for operation under the Del Taco trade name.

In addition, see Note 5 with respect to certain distributions to the General Partner.

NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTIONS

On October 15, 2002, a distribution to the limited partners of $147,135 or approximately $5.45 per limited partnership unit, was approved. Such distribution was paid on October 24, 2002. The General Partner also received a distribution of $1,486 with respect to its 1% partnership interest.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The partnership offered limited partnership units for sale between September 1984 and December 1985. 15% of the $6.751 million raised through sale of limited partnership units was used to pay commissions to brokers and to reimburse the General Partner for offering costs incurred. Approximately $5.6 million of the remaining funds were used to acquire sites and build seven restaurants. Two restaurants were sold in 1994.

The five restaurants leased to Del Taco make up almost all of the income producing assets of the partnership. Therefore, the business of the partnership is almost entirely dependent on the success of the Del Taco trade name restaurants that lease the properties. The success of the restaurants is dependent on a large variety of factors, including, but not limited to, consumer demand and preference for fast food, in general, and for Mexican-American food in particular.

Results of Operations

The partnership owned seven properties that were under long-term lease to Del Taco for restaurant operations. Two restaurants were sold in 1994 and five are currently operating.

The following table sets forth rental revenue earned by restaurant for the year:

The partnership receives rental revenues equal to 12 percent of gross sales from the restaurants. The partnership earned rental revenue of $151,958 during the three month period ended September 30, 2002, which represents an increase of $ 3,275 from 2001. The partnership earned rental revenue of $449,810 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, which represents an increase of $21,990 from 2001. The changes in rental revenue between 2002 and 2001 are directly attributable to increases in sales levels at the restaurants under lease.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations continued

The following table breaks down general and administrative expenses by type of expense:

General and administrative costs for the nine month period ended September 30, increased from 2001 to 2002 due to increased costs for income tax preparation, annual audit fees and costs associated with leasing software.

For the three month period ended September 30, 2002, net income increased by $2,793 from 2001 to 2002 due to the increase in revenues of $ 2,617 and the $176 decrease in general and administrative expenses. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, net income increased by $15,995 from 2001 to 2002 due to the increase in revenues of $20,036 which was partially offset by the $4,041 increase in general and administrative expenses.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121 and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30. It addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets to be disposed of. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Management adopted SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (SFAS 146), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3 “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Terminations Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)”. SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred as opposed to the date of an entity’s commitment to an exit plan as required under EITF Issue No. 94-3. SFAS 146 also requires that measurement of the liability associated with exit or disposal activities be at fair value. SFAS 146 is effective for the Company for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The implementation of SFAS 146 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
