The Company
Inland Real Estate Corporation, formerly known as Inland Monthly Income Fund
III, Inc., (the "Company") was formed on May 12, 1994. On October 14, 1994,

("Offering") of 5,000,000 shares of common stock ("Shares") at $10.00 per
share. As of July 24, 1996, the Company had received subscriptions for a total
of 5,000,000 Shares, thereby completing the initial Offering. On July 24,
1996, the Company commenced an offering of an additional 10,000,000 Shares at
$10.00 per share, on a best efforts basis, (the "Second Offering"). As of July
10, 1997, the Company has received subscriptions for a total of 10,000,000
Shares, thereby completing the Second Offering. On July 14, 1997, the Company
commenced an offering of an additional 20,000,000 Shares at $10.00 per share,
on a best efforts basis, (the "Third Offering"). As of December 31, 1997, the
Company had received subscriptions for a total of 9,326,186 Shares from the
Third Offering. In addition, the Company has distributed 699,954 Shares
through the Company's Distribution Reinvestment Program ("DRP). As of December
31, 1997, the Company has repurchased 52,800 Shares through the Share
Repurchase Program. As a result, Gross Offering Proceeds total $249,231,797,
net of Shares repurchased through the Share Repurchase program. Inland Real
Estate Advisory Services, Inc. (the "Advisor"), an Affiliate of the Company, is
the advisor to the Company.
The Company had no employees during 1997, 1996 and 1995.
Description of Business
The Company is in the business of acquiring Neighborhood Retail Centers located
within an approximate 150-mile radius of its headquarters in Oak Brook,
Illinois. The Company may also acquire single-user retail properties in
locations throughout the United States.
It is the Company's intention, whenever possible, to acquire properties free
and clear of permanent mortgage indebtedness by paying the entire purchase
price of each property in cash or shares of the Company's stock, although, the
Company does, in certain instances, utilize borrowings to acquire properties.
On properties purchased on an all cash basis, the Company has from time to
time, incurred mortgage indebtedness on such properties, subsequent to
acquisition. The proceeds from such loans are used to acquire additional
properties. The Company may also incur indebtedness to finance improvements to
the properties it acquires. The Company anticipates that aggregate borrowings
secured by all of the Company's properties will not exceed 50% of their
combined fair market values, however, the maximum amount of borrowings in the
absence of the consent of a majority of the Stockholders, may not exceed 300%
of Net Assets.

As of December 31, 1997, the Company has acquired fee ownership of forty-four
properties.

The Company's real property investments are described on pages 75-98 of the
Prospectus of the Company dated July 14, 1997 (the "Prospectus"), and in
Supplement No. 7 to the Prospectus dated January 14, 1998 ("Supplement No. 7"),
which is incorporated herein by reference. Reference is also made to Note (4)
of the Notes to Financial Statements (Item 8 of this Annual Report) for
additional descriptions of these investments of the Company.
The Company's real property investments are subject to competition from similar
types of properties in the vicinity in which each is located. Approximate
occupancy levels for the properties are set forth on a quarterly basis in the
table set forth in Item 2 below to which reference is hereby made. The
Company's real property investments are all currently located within 150 miles
of the Company's headquarters in Illinois. The Company does not segregate
revenues or assets by geographic region, and such a presentation would not be
material to an understanding of the Company's business taken as a whole.
The Company does not believe any risk exists due to a concentration of any
single tenant at the centers. Currently the largest single tenant is
Dominick's Finer Foods, which has five leases totaling 321,049 square feet, or
approximately 9.5% of the total gross leasable area owned by the Company.
Annualized base rental income of these five leases is projected to be
$3,739,348 for the year ended December 31, 1998, or approximately 10.87% of the
total annualized base rental income based on the current properties.
The terms of transactions between the Company and Affiliates of the Company are
set forth in Item 11 below and Note (2) to the Company's Financial Statements
(Item 8 of this Annual Report) to which reference is hereby made for a
description of such terms and transactions.
The Company has reviewed its current computer systems and does not anticipate
any future problems relating to the year 2000.
Qualification as a Real Estate Investment Trust
The Company qualified as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for federal income tax purposes
commencing with the tax year ending December 31, 1995. Since the Company
qualified for taxation as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to
federal income tax to the extent it distributes its REIT taxable income to its
stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year,
the Company will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at
regular corporate tax rates. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a
REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income
and property and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
-7-
Item 2. Properties
As of December 31, 1997, the properties owned by the Company included thirty-six
Neighborhood Retail Centers and eight single-user retail properties. Each of
the properties, with the exception of two are located in Illinois. The other
two properties are located in Wisconsin. Tenants of the properties are
responsible for the payment of some or all of the real estate taxes, insurance
and common area maintenance. Reference is made to Item 1 above for a
description of the properties.
The following table lists the approximate physical occupancy levels for the
Company's investment properties as of the end of each quarter during 1997 and
1996. N/A indicates the property was not owned by the Company at the end of the
quarter.

* As part of the purchase of these properties the Company receives rent under
master lease agreements on the space which was vacant at the time of the
purchase, resulting in 100% economic occupancy at December 31, 1997 for
Montgomery-Sears, Mallard Crossing, Sequoia Shopping Center, Shorecrest
Plaza and Rivertree Court, and 98% economic occupancy for Cobblers Crossing.
The master lease agreements resulted in 100% economic occupancy through June
30, 1997 for Antioch Plaza and through August 1, 1997 for Salem Square, at
which times these master leases expired.
As part of the purchase of Summit of Park Ridge, a portion of the Seller's
proceeds were escrowed for the monthly release of master lease payments.
The master lease agreements along with credits for signed leases resulted in
90% economic occupancy for Summit of Park Ridge at December 31, 1997.
As of November 1997, the Company began receiving master lease payments on
spaces which were vacated at Lincoln Park Place and Niles Shopping Center.
The master lease agreements result in 100% economic occupancy at December
31, 1997 for Lincoln Park Place and 73% economic occupancy for Niles
Shopping Center.
The Company continues to collect rental income on space vacated at Six
Corners and Aurora Commons. This income results in 94% economic occupancy
at December 31, 1997 for Six Corners and 100% economic occupancy for Aurora
Commons.
The master lease agreements are for periods ranging from one to two years or
until the spaces are leased.
The Company has received termination fees resulting in 100% economic
occupancy for Prospect Heights through September 30, 1997.
On behalf of the Company, the Advisor is currently exploring the purchase of

no public market for the Shares.
The Company's Share Repurchase Program is available to the Stockholders.

Option Plan. On October 24, 1996, 1,000 shares of common stock were sold to
Roland Burris, a Director of the Company, for an aggregate of $9,050, pursuant
to the exercise of options by Mr. Burris. Since the transaction did not involve
any public offering or general solicitation and Mr. Burris had access to the
Company's registration statement and knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters to evaluate the transaction, the Company relied on the
exemption from registration provided in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act in
order to issue the shares to Mr. Burris.

For the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995
(not covered by the Independent Auditors' Report)
Distributions for the year ended December 31, 1997, represented 99.4% of
the Company's Funds From Operations ("FFO") and 99.9% of funds available
for distribution for that period. See Footnote (b) below for information
regarding the Company's calculation of FFO. Distributions by the Company
to the extent of its current and accumulated earnings and profits for
federal income tax purposes will be taxable to Stockholders as ordinary
dividend income. Distributions in excess of earnings and profits
generally will be treated as a non-taxable reduction of the stockholder's
basis in the Shares to the extent thereof, and thereafter as taxable gain
(a return of capital). These Distributions will have the effect of
deferring taxation of the amount of the Distribution until the sale of the
Stockholder's Shares. For 1997, $3,388,364 (or 25.81% of the $13,127,597
Distribution paid for 1997 represented a return of capital. In order to
maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company must make annual
distributions to Stockholders of at least 95% of its taxable income, or
approximately $9,252,000 for 1997. Taxable income does not include net
capital gains. Under certain circumstances, the Company may be required
to make Distributions in excess of cash available for distribution in
order to meet the REIT distribution requirements. Distributions are
determined by the Company's Board of Directors and are dependent on a
number of factors, including the amount of funds available for
distribution, the Company's financial condition, any decision by the Board
of Directors to reinvest funds rather than to distribute the funds, the
Company's capital expenditures, the annual distribution required to
maintain REIT status under the Code and other factors the Board of
Directors may deem relevant.
(c) "FFO" means net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from debt
restructuring and sales of property, plus depreciation of real property
and amortization and other non-cash items. FFO and funds available for
distribution are calculated as follows:

For the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995
(not covered by the Independent Auditors' Report)
(1) FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to
fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to
net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance or
as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.
(2) Certain tenant leases contain provisions providing for stepped rent
increases. GAAP requires the Company to record rental income for
the period of occupancy using the effective monthly rent, which is
the average monthly rent for the entire period of occupancy during
the term of the lease.
(3) Acquisition cost expenses include costs and expenses relating to the
acquisition of properties. These costs are estimated to be up to
.5% of the Gross Offering Proceeds and are paid from the Proceeds of
the Offering.
(4) As part of several purchases, the Company will receive rent under
master lease agreements on the spaces currently vacant for periods
ranging from one year to eighteen months or until the spaces are
leased. Generally accepted accounting principles require that as
these payments are received, they be recorded as a reduction in the
purchase price of the properties rather than as rental income.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Certain statements in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this annual report on Form
10-K constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Federal
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
which may cause the Company's actual results, performance or achievements to be
materially different from any future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors
include, among other things, limitations on the area in which the Company may
acquire properties; risks associated with borrowings secured by the Company's
properties; competition for tenants and customers; federal, state or local
regulations; adverse changes in general economic or local conditions;
competition for property acquisitions with third parties that have greater
financial resources than the Company; inability of lessees to meet financial
obligations; uninsured losses; risks of failing to qualify as a REIT; and
potential conflicts of interest between the Company and its affiliates including
the Advisor.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of July 24, 1996, the Company had received subscriptions for a total of
5,000,000 Shares, offered on a best efforts basis, at $10.00 per Share, thereby
completing the Company's initial Offering. On July 24, 1996, the Company
commenced an offering of an additional 10,000,000 shares, the Second Offering,
at $10.00 per Share, on a best efforts basis. As of July 10, 1997, the Company
had received subscriptions for a total of 10,000,000 Shares, thereby completing
the Company's Second Offering. On July 14, 1997, the Company commenced an
offering of an additional 20,000,000 Shares, the Third Offering, at $10.00 per
Share, on a best efforts basis. As of December 31, 1997, the Company had
received subscriptions for a total of 9,326,186 Shares from the Third Offering.
In addition, as of December 31, 1997, the Company has distributed 699,954 Shares
through the Company's Distribution Reinvestment Program. As of December 31,
1997, the Company has repurchased 52,800 Shares through the Company's Share
Repurchase Program. As a result, Gross Offering Proceeds, total $249,231,797,
net of Shares repurchased through the Share Repurchase Program.
The Company's capital needs and resources are expected to undergo changes as a
result of the completion of the Company's first follow-on public offering of
Shares, the commencement of the second follow-on Offerings and the acquisition
of properties. Operating cash flow is expected to increase as these additional
properties are added to the portfolio. Distributions to Stockholders are
determined by the Company's Board of Directors and are dependent upon a number
of factors, including the amount of funds available for distribution, the
Company's financial condition, capital expenditures, and the annual distribution
required to maintain REIT status under the Code.
-15-
Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and short-term investments. Cash and
cash equivalents, at December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, were $51,145,587
and $8,491,735 respectively. The increase in cash and cash equivalents since
December 31, 1996 is due to the additional Offering proceeds raised and
additional loan proceeds from financing secured by the Company's properties.
Partially offsetting the increase in cash and cash equivalents was the purchase
of additional properties since December 31, 1996 and the payment of Offering
Costs relating to the Second and Third Offerings. The Company intends to use
cash and cash equivalents to purchase additional properties, to pay
distributions and to pay Offering Costs.
As of December 31, 1997, the Company had acquired forty-four properties. The
properties owned by the Company are currently generating sufficient cash flow to
cover operating expenses of the Company plus pay a monthly distribution on
weighted average shares. Commencing with the fourth quarter of 1996, the
Company increased the monthly distributions from 8.0% to 8.3% per annum on
weighted average shares. Beginning March 1, 1997, the Company increased the
monthly distribution paid to 8.5% per annum on weighted average shares.
Beginning August 1, 1997, the Company increased the monthly distribution paid to
8.7% per annum on weighted average shares. Distributions declared for the year
ended December 31, 1997 were $13,127,597, of which $3,388,364 represents a
return of capital for federal income tax purposes.
Management of the Company monitors the various qualification tests the Company
must meet to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust. Large
ownership of the Company's stock is tested upon purchase to determine that no
more than 50% in value of the outstanding stock is owned directly, or
indirectly, by five or fewer persons or entities at any time. Management of the
Company also determines, on a quarterly basis, that the Gross Income, Asset and
Distribution Tests as described in the section of the Prospectus entitled
"Federal Income Tax Considerations--Taxation of the Company--REIT Qualification
Tests" are met. On an ongoing basis, as due diligence is performed by
management of both the Company and the Advisor on potential real estate
purchases or temporary investment of uninvested capital, management of both
entities determines that the income from the new asset will qualify for REIT
purposes. For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company qualified as a
REIT.
Cash Flows From Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased from $978,350 for the year
ended December 31, 1995 to $5,529,709 for the year ended December 31, 1996 to
$15,923,839 for the year ended December 31, 1997. These increases are due
primarily to the purchase of additional properties. As of December 31, 1997 the
Company had acquired forty-four properties, as compared to twenty-one properties
as of December 31, 1996, and six properties as of December 31, 1995.
-16-
Cash Flows From Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities were utilized primarily for the purchase
of and additions to properties. In addition, the Company made deposits totaling
$3,018,530 for two centers to be purchased in 1998.
Cash Flows From Financing Activities
For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company generated $173,724,632 of cash
flows from financing activities as compared to $71,199,936 of cash flows
generated from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 1996 and
$6,327,490 for the year ended December 31, 1995. These increases are due
primarily to the increase in proceeds raised from the Offering of $168,559,450
for the year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to $61,147,146 of Offering
proceeds raised for the year ended December 31, 1996 and $19,803,163 of Offering
proceeds raised for the year ended December 31, 1995. These increases are also
due to $43,926,176 in financing placed on fifteen of the Company's properties
for the year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to $25,670,000 in financing
placed on twelve of the Company's properties for the year ended December 31,
1996. These increases are partially offset by an increase in the cash used for
the payment of Offering costs for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996.
These increases are also partially offset by an increase in the amount of
distributions paid for the year ended December 31, 1997 of $11,899,431 as
compared to the distributions paid for the year ended December 31, 1996 of
$3,285,528 and distributions paid for the year ended December 31 ,1995 of
$607,095.
In December 1997, the Company committed to additional financing secured by
Cobbler Crossing and Shorecrest Shopping Center properties totaling $8,454,500
from an unaffiliated lender. The funding of these loans is to occur in early
1998. The mortgage loan secured by Cobbler Crossing will have a term of seven
years and, prior to maturity date, will require payments of interest only, fixed
at 7.00%. The mortgage loan secured by Shorecrest Shopping Center will have a
term of five years and, prior to maturity date, will require payments of
interest only, fixed at 7.10%.
The Advisor has guaranteed payment of all public offering expenses (excluding
selling commissions, the marketing contribution and the due diligence expense
allowance fee) in excess of 5.5% of the Gross Offering Proceeds of the Offering
(the "Gross Offering Proceeds") or all organization and offering expenses
(including such selling expenses) which together exceed 15% of the Gross
Offering Proceeds. As of December 31, 1997, organizational and offering costs
did not exceed either of these limitations.
-17-
Results of Operations
As of December 31, 1997, subscriptions for a total of 25,026,140 Shares had been
received from the public resulting in $249,231,797 in Gross Offering Proceeds,
which includes the Advisor's capital contribution of $200,000 and Shares
purchased through the DRP. At December 31, 1997, the Company owned thirty-six
Neighborhood Retail Centers and eight single-user retail properties.
Total income for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was
$29,421,585, $6,327,734 and $1,180,422 respectively. These increases were due
to the purchase of additional properties in 1997 and 1996. As of December 31,
1997, the Company had acquired forty-four properties, as compared to twenty-one
properties as of December 31, 1996 and six properties as of December 31, 1995.
The purchase of additional properties also resulted in increases in property
operating expenses to Affiliates and non-affiliates and depreciation expense.
The decrease in mortgage interest to Affiliates for the years ended December 31,
1996, as compared to the years ended December 31, 1995, is due to the payoff of
the acquisition financing totaling $2,900,000.
The increase in mortgage interest to non-affiliates for the year ended December
31, 1996, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, is due in part to the
mortgage which was assumed as part of the purchase of Regency Point as well as
financing placed on previously acquired properties.
The increase in mortgage interest to Affiliates and non-affiliates for the year
ended December 31, 1997, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1996, is due
to financing placed on previously acquired centers as well as mortgages assumed
as part of the purchases of Regency Point, Aurora Commons, Rivertree Court and
Fashion Square. The mortgages payable totaled $106,589,710 for the year ended
December 31, 1997 as compared to $30,838,233 for the year ended December 31,
1996. The Company continues to have a mortgage payable to an Affiliate
collateralized by the Walgreens, Decatur property.
Interest income is the result of cash and cash equivalents being invested in
short-term investments until a property is purchased.
The increases in professional services to Affiliates and non-affiliates and
general and administrative expenses to Affiliates and non-affiliates for the
year ended December 31, 1997, as compared to the year ended December 31, 1996
and 1995, is due to the management of an increased number of real estate assets.
The increase in acquisition cost expenses to Affiliates and non-affiliates is
due to the increased number of properties considered for acquisition by the
Company and not purchased.

and Exchange Commission on January 30, 1998.
On behalf of the Company, the Advisor is currently exploring the purchase of
additional shopping centers from unaffiliated third parties.
-19-
Impact of Accounting Principles
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosure About Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information" was issued in 1997. The Statement is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1997. This Statement
requires the Company to report financial and descriptive information about its
reportable operating segments.
Inflation
For the Company's Neighborhood Retail Centers, inflation is likely to increase
rental income from leases to new tenants and lease renewals, subject to market
conditions. The Company's rental income and operating expenses for those
properties owned or to be owned and operated under triple-net leases, like the
Walgreens/Decatur property, are not likely to be directly affected by future
inflation, since rents are or will be fixed under the leases and property
expenses are the responsibility of the tenants. The capital appreciation of
triple-net leased properties is likely to be influenced by interest rate
fluctuations. To the extent that inflation determines interest rates, future
inflation may have an effect on the capital appreciation of triple-net leased
properties.

INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
(a Maryland corporation)
Notes to Financial Statements
For the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, and 1995
(1) Organization and Basis of Accounting
Inland Real Estate Corporation (the "Company") was formed on May 12, 1994 to
invest in neighborhood retail centers located within an approximate 150-mile
radius of its headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois. The Company may also
acquire single-user retail properties in locations throughout the United
States, certain of which may be sale and leaseback transactions, net leased to
creditworthy tenants. Inland Real Estate Advisory Services, Inc. (the
"Advisor"), an Affiliate of the Company, is the advisor to the Company. On
October 14, 1994, the Company commenced an initial public offering, on a best
efforts basis, ("Initial Offering") of 5,000,000 shares of common stock
("Shares") at $10.00 per Share. As of July 24, 1996, the Company had received
subscriptions for a total of 5,000,000 Shares, thereby completing the Initial
Offering. On July 24, 1996, the Company commenced an offering of an additional
10,000,000 Shares at $10.00 per Share, on a best efforts basis, (the "Second
Offering"). As of July 10, 1997, the Company had received subscriptions for a
total of 10,000,000 Shares, thereby completing the Second Offering. On July
14, 1997, the Company commenced an offering of an additional 20,000,000 Shares
at $10.00 per Share, on a best efforts basis, (the "Third Offering"). As of
December 31, 1997, the Company had received subscriptions for a total of
9,326,186 Shares from the Third Offering. In addition, as of December 31,
1997, the Company has distributed 699,954 shares through the Company's
Distribution Reinvestment Program ("DRP"). As of December 31, 1997, the
Company has repurchased a total of 52,800 Shares through the Share Repurchase
Program. As a result, as of December 31, 1997, Gross Offering Proceeds total
$249,231,797, net of Shares repurchased through the Share Repurchase Program.
The Company qualified as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for federal income tax purposes
commencing with the tax year ending December 31, 1995. Since the Company
qualified for taxation as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to
federal income tax to the extent it distributes its REIT taxable income to its
stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year,
the Company will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at
regular corporate tax rates. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a
REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income
and property and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
(a Maryland corporation)
Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity
of three months or less to be cash equivalents and are carried at cost, which
approximates fair value.
Restricted cash at December 31, 1997 includes $861,716 held in escrow for the
principal payments payable on the Aurora Commons mortgage and $87,496 held in
escrow by the mortgagee for the payment of real estate taxes at Aurora Commons.
Restricted cash at December 31, 1997 also includes amounts held as vacancy
escrows on Cobbler Crossing, Mallard Crossing and Shorecrest Shopping Center.
The monthly amounts drawn for rent under the master lease escrows decrease the
basis of the respective properties. Restricted cash at December 31, 1997 also
includes $325,000 held in escrow for tenant improvement costs at Fashion Square
and $600,000 held at Cole Taylor bank to redeem a portion of the bonds at
Fashion Square (Note 9).
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 requires the Company to
record an impairment loss on its property to be held for investment whenever
its carrying value cannot be fully recovered through estimated undiscounted
future cash flows from operations and sale of properties. The amount of the
impairment loss to be recognized would be the difference between the property's
carrying value and the property's estimated fair value. As of December 31,
1997, the Company does not believe any such impairments of its properties
exists.
Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method. Buildings and
improvements are depreciated based upon estimated useful lives of 30 years for
the building and building improvements and 15 years for the site improvements.
Loan fees are amortized on a straight line basis over the life of the related
loans.
Deferred organization costs are amortized over a 60-month period.
Offering costs are offset against the Stockholders' equity accounts. Offering
costs consist principally of printing, selling and registration costs.
Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of each
lease. The difference between rental income earned on a straight-line basis
and the cash rent due under the provisions of the lease agreements is recorded
as deferred rent receivable.
The Company believes that the interest rates associated with the mortgages
payable and notes payable to Affiliates approximate the market interest rates
for these types of debt instruments, and as such, the carrying amount of the
mortgages payable and notes payable to Affiliates approximate their fair value.

INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION

Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and
rents receivable, accounts payable and other liabilities, accrued offering
costs to Affiliates, accrued offering costs to non-Affiliates, accrued interest
payable to Affiliates, accrued real estate taxes, and distributions payable
approximate fair value because of the relatively short maturity of these
instruments.
In 1997, the Company adopted FASB No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation". As allowed by FASB No. 123, the Company plans to continue to
use Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" in accounting for its stock options. This accounting pronouncement
did not have a material effect on the financial position or results of
operations of the Company.
In 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share, which the
company will adopt in fiscal year 1998. This Statement will have no material
effect on the Company's primary or diluted net income per share.
(2) Transactions with Affiliates
The Advisor and its Affiliates are entitled to reimbursement for salaries and
expenses of employees of the Advisor and its Affiliates relating to each of the
Offerings. Such expenses include postage, data processing and marketing and
are reimbursed at cost. The collective costs to Affiliates incurred relating
to the Offerings were $1,047,694 and $692,248 as of December 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, of which $24,374 and $27,976 were unpaid as of December 31, 1997
and 1996, respectively. In addition, an Affiliate of the Advisor serves as
dealer manager of each of the Offerings and is entitled to receive selling
commissions, a marketing contribution and a due diligence expense allowance fee
from the Company in connection with each of the Offerings. Such amounts
incurred were $23,124,939 and $7,403,965 for the years ended December 31, 1997
and 1996, respectively, of which $519,914 and $270,365 was unpaid as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. As of December 31, 1997,
approximately $19,581,000 of these commissions had been passed through from the
Affiliate to unaffiliated soliciting broker/dealers.
-31-
INLAND REAL ESTATE CORPORATION
(a Maryland corporation)
Notes to Financial Statements
(continued)
As of December 31, 1997, the Company had incurred $28,369,181 of total
organization and offering costs to Affiliates and non-affiliates. Pursuant to
the terms of each of the Offerings, the Advisor is required to pay
organizational and offering expenses (excluding sales commissions, the
marketing contribution and the due diligence expense allowance fee) in excess
of 5.5% of the gross proceeds of the Offerings (the "Gross Offering Proceeds")
or all organization and offering expenses (including selling commissions) which
together exceed 15% of gross offering proceeds. As of the completion of the
initial and second Offerings, organizational and offering did not exceed the
5.5% or 15% limitations. As of December 31, 1997, organizational and offering
costs of the Third Offering did not exceed the 5.5% and 15% limitations. The
Company anticipates that these costs will not exceed either of these
limitations upon completion of the offerings, however, any excess amounts will
be reimbursed by the Advisor.
The Advisor and its Affiliates are entitled to reimbursement for salaries and
expenses of employees of the Advisor and its Affiliates relating to the
administration of the Company. Such costs are included in professional
services to Affiliates, general and administrative expenses to Affiliates and
acquisition costs expensed.
As of December 31, 1997, the Advisor has contributed $200,000 to the capital of
the Company for which it received 20,000 Shares.
The Advisor may receive an annual Advisor Asset Management Fee of not more than
1% of the Average Invested Assets, paid quarterly. For any year in which the
Company qualifies as a REIT, the Advisor must reimburse the Company: (i) to
the extent that the Advisor Asset Management Fee plus Other Operating Expenses
paid during the previous calendar year exceed 2% of the Company's Average
Invested Assets for the calendar year or 25% of the Company's Net Income for
that calendar year; and (ii) to the extent that Stockholders have not received
an annual Distribution equal to or greater than the 8% Current Return. The
Advisor Asset Management Fee plus other operating expenses paid during the
previous calendar year did not exceed 2% of the Company's Average Invested
Assets for the calendar year or 25% of the Company's Net Income for that
calendar year and Stockholder's received an annual Distribution greater than an
8% return. Accordingly, for the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company has
incurred $843,000 of Advisor Asset Management Fees, of which $320,000 remained
unpaid at December 31, 1997.
An Affiliate of the Advisor is entitled to receive Property Management Fees for
management and leasing services. The Company incurred and paid Property
Management Fees of $1,120,429 and $229,307 for the years ended December 31,
1997 and 1996, respectively, all of which has been paid.
The Advisor and its Affiliates are entitled to reimbursement for salaries and
expense of employees of the Advisor and its Affiliates relating to selecting,
evaluating and acquiring of properties. Such amounts are included in building
and improvements for those costs relating to properties purchased. Such
amounts are included in acquisition cost expenses to Affiliates for costs
relating to properties not acquired.

(3) Stock Option Plan and Soliciting Dealer Warrant Plan
The Company adopted an Independent Director Stock Option Plan which granted
each Independent Director an option to acquire 3,000 Shares as of the date they
become a Director and an additional 500 Shares on the date of each annual
stockholders' meeting commencing with the annual meeting in 1995 if the
Independent Director is a member of the Board on such date. The options for
the initial 3,000 Shares granted shall be exercisable as follows: 1,000 Shares
on the date of grant and 1,000 Shares on each of the first and second
anniversaries of the date of grant. The succeeding options are exercisable on
the second anniversary of the date of grant. As of December 31, 1996, options
for 1,000 Shares have been exercised for $9.05 per Share.
In addition to sales commissions, Soliciting Dealers will also receive one
Soliciting Dealer Warrant for each 40 Shares sold by such Soliciting Dealer
during the offerings, subject to state and federal securities laws. The holder
of a Soliciting Dealer Warrant will be entitled to purchase one Share from the
Company at a price of $12 during the period commencing with the first date upon
which the Soliciting Dealer Warrants are issued and ending upon the first to
occur of: (i) October 14, 1999 or (ii) the closing date of a secondary offering
of the Shares by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing no Soliciting
Dealer Warrant will be exercisable until one year from the date of issuance.
As of December 31, 1997, none of these warrants were exercised.

the property, including amounts incurred subsequent to acquisition, which
were contemplated at the time the property was acquired.
(B) Adjustments to basis includes additions to investment properties and
payments received under master lease agreements. As part of several
purchases, the Company will receive rent under master lease agreements on
the spaces currently vacant for periods ranging from one to two years or
until the spaces are leased. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
("GAAP") require that as these payments are received, they be recorded as a
reduction in the purchase price of the properties rather than as rental
income. The cumulative amount of such payments was $981,055 and $570,694
as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively (Note 5).
Cost and accumulated depreciation of the above properties are summarized as

(5) Operating Leases
Master Lease Agreements
As part of the purchases of several of the properties, the Company will receive
rent under master lease agreements on spaces currently vacant for periods
ranging from one to two years or until the spaces are leased and tenants begin
paying rent. GAAP requires the Company to reduce the purchase price of the
properties as these payments are received, rather than record the payments as
rental income.
Minimum lease payments under operating leases to be received in the future,
excluding rental income under master lease agreements and assuming no expiring
leases are renewed:
Number of
Minimum Lease Leases
Payments Expiring
------------- -----------
1998...................................... $ 30,852,420 66
1999...................................... 27,815,045 101
2000...................................... 24,678,197 73
2001...................................... 21,377,331 49
2002...................................... 18,920,519 55
Thereafter................................ 137,903,729 82
-------------
Total..................................... $261,547,241
=============
No assumptions were made regarding the releasing of expired leases. It is the
opinion of the Company's management that the space will be released at market
rates.
Remaining lease terms range from one year to thirty two years. Pursuant to the
lease agreements, tenants of the property are required to reimburse the Company
for some or all of their pro rata share of the real estate taxes and operating
expenses of the property. Such amounts are included in additional rental
income.
Certain tenant leases contain provisions providing for stepped rent increases.
GAAP requires the Company to record rental income for the period of occupancy
using the effective monthly rent, which is the average monthly rent for the
entire period of occupancy during the term of the lease. The accompanying
financial statements include increases of $654,978, $119,225 and $12,413 in
1997, 1996 and 1995, of rental income for the period of occupancy for which
stepped rent increases apply and $786,616 and $131,638 in related accounts
receivable as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The Company
anticipates collecting these amounts over the terms of the related leases as
scheduled rent payments are made.
