NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
PRUCO LIFE VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY ACCOUNT
SEPTEMBER 30, 2003
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1: GENERAL
Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account (the "Real Property Account")
was established on August 27, 1986 and commenced business September 5, 1986.
Pursuant to Arizona law, the Real Property Account was established as a separate
investment account of Pruco Life Insurance Company ("Pruco Life"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Prudential Insurance Company of America
("Prudential"). The assets of the Real Property Account are segregated from
Pruco Life's other assets. The Real Property Account is used to fund benefits
under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by
Pruco Life. These products are Variable Appreciable Life ("VAL"), Variable Life
Insurance ("VLI"), Discovery Plus ("SPVA") and Discovery Life Plus ("SPVL").
The assets of the Real Property Account are invested in The Prudential Variable
Contract Real Property Partnership (the "Partnership"). The Partnership is
organized under New Jersey law and is registered under the Securities Act of
1933. The Partnership is the investment vehicle for assets allocated to the real
estate investment option under certain variable life insurance and annuity
contracts. The Real Property Account, along with The Prudential Variable
Contract Real Property Account and the Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable
Contract Real Property Account, are the sole investors in the Partnership. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
of the Partnership.
The Partnership has a policy of investing at least 65% of its assets in direct
ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage
loans.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The interim financial data as of September 30, 2003 and for the nine and three
months ended September 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002 is unaudited ; however,
in the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement
of the results for the interim periods.
B. INVESTMENT IN PARTNERSHIP INTEREST
The investment in the Partnership is based on the Real Property Account's
proportionate interest of the Partnership's market value. At September 30, 2003
and December 31, 2002 the Real Property Account's interest in the Partnership
was 54.8% or 4,190,321 shares.
C. INCOME RECOGNITION
Net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are
recognized daily. Amounts are based upon the Real Property Account's
proportionate interest in the Partnership.
4
D. EQUITY OF PRUCO LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
Pruco Life maintains a position in the Real Property Account for liquidity
purposes including unit purchases and redemptions, Partnership share
transactions, and expense processing. The position does not have an effect on
the contract owner's account or the related unit value.
NOTE 3: CHARGES AND EXPENSES
A. MORTALITY RISK AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGES
Mortality risk and expense risk charges are determined daily using an effective
annual rate of 0.6%, 0.35%, 0.9% and 0.9% for VAL, VLI, SPVA, SPVL,
respectively. Mortality risk is that life insurance contract owners may not live
as long as estimated or annuitants may live longer than estimated and expense
risk is that the cost of issuing and administering the policies may exceed
related charges by Pruco Life.
B. ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES
Administrative charges are determined daily using an effective annual rate of
0.35% applied daily against the net assets representing equity of contract
owners held in each subaccount for SPVA and SPVL. Administrative charges include
costs associated with issuing the contract, establishing and maintaining
records, and providing reports to contract owners.
C. COST OF INSURANCE AND OTHER RELATED CHARGES
Contract owner contributions are subject to certain deductions prior to being
invested in the Real Property Account. The deductions for VAL and VLI are (1)
state premium taxes; (2) sales charges which are deducted in order to compensate
Pruco Life for the cost of selling the contract and (3) transaction costs,
applicable to VAL, are deducted from each premium payment to cover premium
collection and processing costs. Contracts are also subject to monthly charges
for the costs of administering the contract to compensate Pruco Life the
guaranteed minimum death benefit risk.
D. DEFERRED SALES CHARGE
A deferred sales charge is imposed upon the surrender of certain variable life
insurance contracts to compensate Pruco Life for sales and other marketing
expenses. The amount of any sales charge will depend on the number of years that
have elapsed since the contract was issued. No sales charge will be imposed
after the sixth and tenth year of the contract for SPVL and VAL, respectively.
No sales charge will be imposed on death benefits.
E. PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL CHARGE
A charge is imposed by Pruco Life on partial withdrawals of the cash surrender
value for VAL. A charge equal to the lesser of $15 or 2% will be made in
connection with each partial withdrawal of the cash surrender value of a
contract.
NOTE 4: TAXES
Pruco Life is taxed as a "life insurance company" as defined by the Internal
Revenue Code. The results of operations of the Real Property Account form a part
of Prudential's consolidated federal tax return. Under current federal law, no
federal income taxes are payable by the Real Property Account. As such, no
provision for the tax liability has been recorded in these financial statements.
5
NOTE 5: NET WITHDRAWALS BY CONTRACT OWNERS

PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP
SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND 2002
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited financial statements included herein have been
prepared in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim
financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement
have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30,
2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ended December 31, 2003. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and notes thereto included in each Partner's December 31, 2002 Annual
Report on Form 10K.
FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities", ("FIN
46") was issued in January 2003. On October 9, 2003, FASB issued FASB Staff
Position FIN 46-6 deferring the effective date for applying the provisions of
FIN 46 for those companies currently accounting for their investments in
accordance with the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide, "Audits of Investment
Companies" ("the Audit Guide"). The effective date is delayed while the AICPA
finalizes the proposed Statement of Position ("SOP") on the clarification of the
scope of the Audit Guide. Following the issuance of the final SOP, the FASB will
consider modifying FIN 46 to provide an exception for companies that apply the
Audit Guide. The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership
("Partnership") is awaiting the final determination from the FASB in order to
evaluate the extent in which, if any, its equity investments may need to be
consolidated as a result of FIN 46.
NOTE 2: DISCLOSURE OF NON-CASH INVESTING ACTIVITY
On April 15, 2003, a buyout of a minority partner's interest in a consolidated
retail asset resulted in an increase in the Partnership's basis in the real
estate investment of approximately $1.6 million.
NOTE 3: COMMITMENT FROM PARTNER
In 1986, the Prudential Insurance Company of America ("Prudential") committed to
fund up to $100 million to enable the Prudential Variable Contract Real Property
Partnership to acquire real estate investments. Contributions to the Partnership
under this commitment were utilized for property acquisitions, and could be
returned to Prudential on an ongoing basis from the contract owners' net
contributions and other available cash. This commitment terminated on December
31, 2002. Prudential did not make any contributions during the 2002 fiscal year.
During the period that this commitment was in effect, Prudential funded $44
million.
NOTE 4: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Pursuant to an investment management agreement, Prudential Investment Management
("PIM") charges the Partnership a daily investment management fee at an annual
rate of 1.25% of the average daily gross asset valuation of the Partnership. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 investment management fees
incurred by the Partnership were $1,838,933 and $1,879,044 respectively.
Management fees incurred by the Partnership for the three months ended September
30, 2003 and 2002 were $652,741 and $634,957, respectively.
The Partnership also reimburses Prudential for certain administrative services
rendered by PIM. The amounts incurred for the nine months ended September 30,
2003 and 2002 were $87,472 for each period, and are classified as administrative
expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Administrative expenses
incurred by the Partnership for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and
2002 were $29,157 for each period.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
All of the assets of the Real Property Account (the "Account") are invested in
the Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the "Partnership").
Correspondingly, the liquidity, capital resources and results of operations for
the Real Property Account are contingent upon the Partnership. Therefore, all of
management's discussion of these items is at the Partnership level. The partners
in the Partnership are The Prudential Insurance Company of America, Pruco Life
Insurance Company, and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey (collectively,
the "Partners").
The following analysis of the liquidity and capital resources and results of
operations of the Partnership should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements and the related Notes to the Financial Statements included elsewhere
herein.
(a) LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2003, the Partnership's liquid assets consisting of cash and
cash equivalents were $31.8 million, an increase of $13.2 million from $18.6
million at December 31, 2002. This increase was primarily due to an increase in
net cash flows from operations, the sale of the industrial property located in
Salt Lake City, Utah on January 28, 2003, the sale of one of the retail centers
located in Kansas City, Missouri on April 23, 2003, and mortgage proceeds of
$8.75 million received in connection with financing placed on the apartment
complex located in Raleigh, North Carolina on June 27, 2003. Sources of
liquidity include net cash flow from property operations, interest from
short-term investments, sales, and financing.
The Partnership's investment policy allows up to 30% investment in cash and
short-term obligations, although the Partnership generally holds approximately
10% of its assets in cash and short-term obligations. At September 30, 2003,
13.4% of the Partnership's total assets consisted of cash and short-term
obligations.
In 1986, the Prudential Insurance Company of America ("Prudential") committed to
fund up to $100 million to enable the Partnership to acquire real estate
investments. Contributions to the Prudential Variable Contract Real Property
Partnership ("Partnership") under this commitment were utilized for property
acquisitions, and could be returned to Prudential on an ongoing basis from the
contract owners' net contributions and other available cash. This commitment
terminated on December 31, 2002. Prudential did not make any contributions
during the 2002 fiscal year. During the period that this commitment was in
effect, Prudential funded $44 million.
The Partnership did not make any distributions to the Partners during the first
nine months of 2003. On September 30, 2002 the Partnership made an $11.4 million
distribution to the Partners. Distributions may be made to the Partners during
2003 based upon the percentage of assets invested in short-term obligations,
taking into consideration anticipated cash needs of the Partnership including
potential property acquisitions, property dispositions and capital expenditures.
Management anticipates that its current liquid assets and ongoing cash flow from
operations will satisfy the Partnership's needs over the next twelve months and
the foreseeable future.
During the first nine months of 2003, the Partnership spent approximately $4.6
million in capital expenditures on wholly owned and consolidated properties.
Approximately $3.0 million was associated with the development of the retail
center located in Ocean City, Maryland. The remaining $1.6 million balance was
primarily associated with leasing, tenant improvements, and renovations at the
apartment complexes located in Jacksonville, Florida and Gresham/Salem, OR, and
the industrial building located in Aurora, Colorado, the office building located
in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois, the office building located in Lisle, Illinois,
and the retail center located in Roswell, Georgia. The Partnership also
increased its investment in real estate partnerships by approximately $1.3
million in connection with the redevelopment and expansion of the retail centers
located in Kansas City, Missouri.

NET INVESTMENT INCOME OVERVIEW
The Partnership's net investment income for the nine months ended September 30,
2003 was $6.7 million, a decrease of $1.4 million from $8.1 million when
compared to the corresponding period in 2002. The Partnership's net investment
income for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 was $1.9 million, a decrease of
$0.5 million from $2.4 million when compared to the corresponding period in
2002. The decrease is primarily due to increased vacancy within the office
portfolio and the sales of the industrial properties in Bolingbrook, Illinois
and Salt Lake City, Utah.
Equity in income of real estate partnership was $0.5 million for the first nine
months of 2003, an increase of $0.3 million from $0.2 million in the
corresponding period in 2002. This increase is due to an increase in revenue
associated with expansion of the existing grocery store anchor that was
completed last quarter.
Interest on short-term investments decreased approximately $0.2 million or 44.3%
for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 due primarily to lower interest
rates.
Operating expense increased $0.1 million, or 11.7%, in the third quarter of 2003
compared to the corresponding period in 2002. The increase was primarily due to
the Partnership's acquisition of a controlling interest in a retail center
located in Ocean City, Maryland in late 2002.
15
Interest expense increased $0.3 million, or 17.1%, in the first nine months of
2003 compared to the corresponding period in 2002, and $0.1 million, or 23.3%,
in the third quarter of 2003 compared to the corresponding period in 2002. This
increase was primarily due to the Partnership's assumption of a $7.4 million
mortgage loan in conjunction with the acquisition of a controlling interest in a
retail center located in Ocean City, Maryland in late 2002 and financing of an
$8.8 million note placed on the apartment investment located in Raleigh, North
Carolina on June 27, 2003.
VALUATION OVERVIEW
2003 YEAR-TO-DATE
The Partnership experienced a net unrealized loss of $6.9 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2003 compared to a net unrealized loss of $7.5
million during the corresponding period in 2002. The unrealized losses during
the first nine months of 2003 were experienced in the office, industrial, equity
partnership, and apartment sectors. The office portfolio recorded an unrealized
loss totaling $5.4 million primarily due to decreases in occupancy coupled with
soft market conditions which have resulted in reductions in market rental rates
and increased leasing costs. The industrial property in Aurora, Colorado
experienced an unrealized loss of $1.0 million for the first nine months of 2003
due to decreases in market rental rates and capital expenditures at the property
that were not reflected as an increase in market value. The equity partnership
sector experienced a net unrealized loss of $0.9 million primarily due to
capital expenditures that were not reflected as an increase in market value. The
apartment sector also experienced an unrealized loss of $0.6 million due to the
apartment portfolio located in Gresham/Salem, Oregon. The decrease is a result
of projected increases in operating expenses. Offsetting some of these losses
were unrealized gains of $1.0 million in the retail sector. Increases in value
were primarily due to renovation and re-leasing efforts at the Ocean City,
Maryland retail center and a strengthening of market fundamentals at the
Hampton, Virginia retail center.
THIRD QUARTER 2003
The Partnership experienced a net unrealized loss of $2.0 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2003 compared to a net unrealized loss of $0.3
million during the corresponding period in 2002. The unrealized losses for the
third quarter were primarily experienced in the office sector ($0.8 million),
the retail sector ($0.6 million), the industrial sector ($0.3 million), and the
equity partnership sector ($0.3 million) for the same reasons discussed
previously.

NET INVESTMENT INCOME
Net investment income from property operations for the office sector decreased
approximately $0.7 million, or 64.3%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2003
when compared to the corresponding period in 2002. Net investment income from
property operations for the office sector also decreased approximately $2.2
million, or 60.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 when compared to
the corresponding period in 2002. Increased vacancy and weak market fundamentals
were the primary reasons that net investment income decreased for the office
sector.
UNREALIZED LOSS
THIRD QUARTER 2003:
The five office properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
loss of approximately $0.8 million during the third quarter of 2003, primarily
due to softening market conditions.
THIRD QUARTER 2002:
The five office properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
loss of approximately $1.1 million during the third quarter of 2002. The
unrealized losses are primarily due to impending tenant rollover, softening
office market conditions, and increasing capital costs associated with
re-tenanting.
2003 YEAR-TO-DATE:
The five office properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
loss of approximately $5.4 million during the first nine months of 2003. The
losses were primarily due to decreased occupancy, lower market rents, and
increased lease up costs.
2002 YEAR-TO-DATE:
The five office properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
loss of approximately $4.7 million during the first nine months of 2002. The
decrease in values was primarily due to a reduction in market rental rates,
softening market conditions, and a decrease in occupancy due to various
near-term lease expirations, and the move-out of the single tenant occupying all
of the space at one of the buildings in Brentwood, Tennessee.
As of September 30, 2003 all vacant spaces were being marketed.

NET INVESTMENT INCOME
Net investment income from property operations for the apartment sector was $0.7
million for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, a decrease of $0.1 million, or
14.2%, when compared to the corresponding period in 2002. The decrease is
primarily due to a decrease in occupancy at the apartment complex located in
Gresham/Salem, Oregon. Net investment income from property operations for the
apartment sector was $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003,
an increase of $0.4 million, or 16.1%, when compared to the corresponding period
in 2002. The increases were mainly due to the effect of a reclassification,
which took place in 2003, of 2002 repairs and maintenance expenses to building
improvements for the apartment complex located in Gresham/Salem, Oregon and
increased operational efficiencies at the apartment complex located in
Jacksonville, Florida during 2003.
UNREALIZED GAIN/LOSS
THIRD QUARTER 2003:
The apartment complexes owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
gain of $0.02 million in the third quarter of 2003.
THIRD QUARTER 2002:
The apartment complexes owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
gain of $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2002, primarily due to the
apartment complex located in Raleigh, North Carolina, which increased occupancy
from the previous quarter and decreased operating expenses.
2003 YEAR-TO-DATE:
The apartment complexes owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
loss of $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to a
net unrealized loss of $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2002. The unrealized loss for 2003 was mainly attributable to the apartment
complex located in Gresham/Salem, Oregon due to an increase in projected
operating expenses.
2002 YEAR-TO-DATE:
The apartment complexes owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized
loss of $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. These
unrealized losses were due to softening market conditions, which have resulted
in lower short-term occupancy and income projections, increased rental
concessions, and increases in operating expense levels.
As of September 30, 2003, all available vacant units were being marketed.

NET INVESTMENT INCOME
Net investment income for the Partnership's retail properties was approximately
$1.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, an increase of $0.2
million, or 20.0%, when compared to the corresponding period in 2002. Net
investment income for the Partnership's retail properties was approximately $3.2
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, an increase of $0.5
million, or 16.6%, when compared to the corresponding period in 2002. This
increase was primarily due to the Partnership's acquisition of a controlling
interest in a retail center located in Ocean City, Maryland in late 2002. Also
on April 15, 2003 the Partnership acquired its joint venture partner's
membership interest in the retail center located in Hampton, Virginia, thus
entitling the Partnership to all of the net investment income generated by the
investment commencing on the buyout date and going forward.
UNREALIZED LOSS/GAIN
THIRD QUARTER 2003:
The retail properties experienced a net unrealized loss of $0.6 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 2003. These unrealized losses were primarily
experienced by the retail center located in Roswell, Georgia due decreases in
market rental rates and shorter-term lease renewals.
THIRD QUARTER 2002:
The retail properties experienced a net unrealized loss of $0.2 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 2002. The retail center located in Roswell, Georgia
experienced an unrealized loss of $0.3 million due to lower market rents due to
deteriorating market conditions. This loss was offset by a gain of $0.1 million
at the Hampton, Virginia retail center due to an increase in occupancy.
2003 YEAR-TO-DATE:
The retail properties experienced a net unrealized gain of $1.0 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2003. This gain in value was due to
strengthening market fundamentals, and renovation and releasing efforts.
2002 YEAR-TO-DATE:
The retail properties experienced a net unrealized loss of $1.4 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2002. This was primarily attributable to the
center located in Roswell, Georgia due to increased risk that a major tenant
would not renew its lease, coupled with a deterioration in the market position
of the property and lower market rents.
As of September 30, 2003, all vacant spaces were being marketed.

NET INVESTMENT INCOME
Net investment income from property operations for the industrial properties
decreased from $0.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 to $0.1
million for the corresponding period ended September 30, 2003. Net investment
income from property operations for the industrial properties decreased from
$1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 to $0.5 million for
the corresponding period ended September 30, 2003. The majority of this decrease
was due to the sale of the industrial property located in Bolingbrook, Illinois
during the third quarter of 2002 and the sale of the industrial property located
in Salt Lake City, Utah during the first quarter of 2003.
UNREALIZED LOSS/GAIN
THIRD QUARTER 2003:
The Aurora, Colorado industrial property owned by the Partnership experienced a
net unrealized loss of approximately $0.3 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 2003. The unrealized loss experienced in the third quarter is due
to capital expenditures at the property that were not reflected as an increase
in market value.
2003 YEAR-TO-DATE:
The Aurora, Colorado industrial property owned by the Partnership experienced a
net unrealized loss of approximately $1.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003 compared to a net unrealized gain of approximately $0.5
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The unrealized loss
experienced in 2003 is due to soft market conditions and capital expenditures at
the property that were not reflected as an increase in market value.
2002 YEAR-TO-DATE:
The two industrial properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net
unrealized gain of approximately $0.2 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002. The majority of the unrealized gain in 2002 was attributable
to an increase in market rents.
As of September 30, 2003, all vacant spaces were being marketed.
REALIZED GAIN
On January 28, 2003 the industrial property located in Salt Lake City, Utah was
sold for a realized gain of $0.5 million.

NET INVESTMENT INCOME
During the quarter ended September 30, 2003, income from the investment located
in Kansas City, Kansas and Missouri amounted to $0.2 million from $0.1 million
at September 30, 2002. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, income
from the investment located in Kansas City, Kansas and Missouri amounted to $0.5
million from $0.2 million at September 30, 2002. This increase is due to an
increase in revenue associated with expansion of the existing grocery store
anchor that was completed last quarter.
UNREALIZED LOSS/GAIN
THIRD QUARTER 2003:
The equity investment experienced a net unrealized loss of $0.3 million and a
net unrealized gain of $0.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 and
2002, respectively. The unrealized loss of $0.3 million experienced during the
third quarter of 2003 was due to capital expenditures that were not reflected as
an increase in market value.
THIRD QUARTER 2002:
The unrealized gain of $0.7 million experienced during the third quarter of 2002
was due to renovations from the expansion of the existing grocery store anchor.
2003 YEAR-TO-DATE:

nine months ended September 30, 2003 and a net unrealized gain of $0.1 million

(c) INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis may be
considered forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects", "believes",
"anticipates", "intends", "plans", or variations of such words are generally
part of forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are made based
upon management's current expectations and beliefs concerning future
developments and their potential effects upon the Partnership. There can be no
assurance that future developments affecting the Partnership will be those
anticipated by management. There are certain important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from estimates or expectations reflected in
such forward-looking statements including without limitation,
21
changes in general economic conditions, including the performance of financial
markets and interest rates; market acceptance of new products and distribution
channels; competitive, regulatory or tax changes that affect the cost or demand
for the Partnership's products; and adverse litigation results. While the
Partnership reassesses material trends and uncertainties affecting its financial
position and results of operations, it does not intend to review or revise any
particular forward-looking statement referenced in this Management's Discussion
and Analysis in light of future events. Readers should consider the information
referred to above when reviewing any forward-looking statements contained in
this Management's Discussion and Analysis.
(d) INFLATION
The Partnership's leases with a majority of its commercial tenants provide for
recoveries of expenses based upon the tenant's proportionate share of, and/or
increases in, real estate taxes and certain operating costs, which may reduce
the Partnership's exposure to increases in operating costs resulting from
inflation.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires the application of
accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment.
Management, on an ongoing basis, reviews critical estimates and assumptions. If
management determines, as a result of its consideration of facts and
circumstances that modifications in assumptions and estimates are appropriate,
results of operations and financial position as reported in the Consolidated
Financial Statements may change significantly.
The following sections discuss critical accounting policies applied in preparing
our financial statements that are most dependent on the application of estimates
and assumptions.
VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS--The Partnership's investments in real estate are
initially valued at their purchase price. Thereafter, real estate investments
are reported at their estimated market values based upon appraisal reports
prepared by independent real estate appraisers (members of the Appraisal
Institute or an equivalent organization) within a reasonable amount of time
following acquisition of the real estate and no less frequently than annually
thereafter. The Chief Real Estate Appraiser of Prudential Investment Management
is responsible to assure that the valuation process provides objective and
accurate market value estimates.
The purpose of an appraisal is to estimate the market value of real estate as of
a specific date. Market value has been defined as the most probable price for
which the appraised real estate will sell in a competitive market under all
conditions requisite for a fair sale, with the buyer and seller each acting
prudently, knowledgeably, and for self interest, and assuming that neither is
under undue duress.
Real estate partnerships are valued at the Partnership's equity in net assets as
reflected in the partnership's financial statements with properties valued as
described above.
As described above, the estimated market value of real estate and real estate
related assets is determined through an appraisal process. These estimated
market values may vary significantly from the prices at which the real estate
investments would sell since market prices of real estate investments can only
be determined by negotiation between a willing buyer and seller. Although the
estimated market values represent subjective estimates, management believes
these estimated market values are reasonable approximations of market prices and
the aggregate value of investments in real estate is fairly presented as of
September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002.
OTHER ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk. The Partnership's exposure to market rate risk for changes
in interest rates relates to about 40.96% of its investment portfolio consisting
primarily of short-term fixed rate commercial paper and fixed and variable
interest rate debt. The Partnership does not use derivative financial
instruments. By policy, the Partnership places its investments with high quality
debt security issuers, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer,
limits duration by restricting the term, and holds investments to maturity
except under rare circumstances.
The table below presents the amounts and related weighted interest rates of the
Partnership's cash equivalents and short-term investments at September 30, 2003:
ESTIMATED MARKET
VALUE AVERAGE
MATURITY (IN $ MILLIONS) INTEREST RATE
---------------------------------------------------
Cash equivalents........... 0-3 months $31.8 0.98%
The table below discloses the Partnership's fixed and variable rate debt as of
September 30, 2003. Approximately $34.1 million of the Partnership's long-term
debt bears interest at fixed rates and therefore the fair value of these
instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates. The following table
presents principal cash flows (in thousands) based upon maturity dates of the
debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected
maturity dates for the fixed rate debt. The interest rate on the variable rate
debt is equal to the 6-month Treasury rate plus 1.565%. It is subject to a
maximum of 11.345% and a minimum of 2.345%. The interest rate on the variable
rate debt as of September 30, 2003 was 3.235%.

The Partnership is exposed to market risk from tenants. While the Partnership
has not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of a significant
rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, defaults could
increase and result in losses to the Partnership, which would adversely affect
its operating results and liquidity.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
In order to ensure that the information we must disclose in our filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized, and
reported on a timely basis, the Company's management, including our President
and Chief Accounting Officer, have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of
our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), as of September 30, 2003. Based on such evaluation, the
President and Chief Accounting Officer have concluded that, as of September 30,
2003, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting
them to material information relating to us required to be included in our
periodic SEC filings. There has been no change in our internal control over
financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2003, that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
