PWC provides a full range of business advisory services to leading global, national and local companies and to public institutions. These services include audit, accounting and tax advice, management, information technology and human resources consulting; financial advisory 10 services including mergers and acquisitions, business recovery, project finance and litigation support; business process outsourcing services; and legal advice through a global network of affiliated law firms. PWC employs more than 140,000 people in 152 countries. The annual base rent payable under the PWC Lease is $1,915,741.13 ($14.73 per square foot) payable in equal monthly installments of $159,645.09 during the first year of the initial lease term. The base rent escalates at the rate of 3% per year throughout the ten year lease term. In addition, PWC is required to pay a "reserve" of all property taxes, operating expenses, and other repair and maintenance work relating to the PWC Building. PWC is also required to reimburse the landlord the cost of casualty insurance for the property. Wells OP, as landlord, is responsible for all maintenance, repairs and replacements to the roof and structural components of the PWC Building, including without limitation, the roof system, exterior walls, load bearing walls, foundations, glazing and curtain wall systems. For additional information regarding the PWC Building, refer to Supplement No. 6 dated January 12, 1999, to the Prospectus of Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. contained in Post-Effective Amendment No. 4 to Form S-11 Registration Statement of Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., which was filed with the Commission on January 15, 1999 (Commission File No. 333-32099). ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS There were no material pending legal proceedings or proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental authorities involving the Company during 1998. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. No matters were submitted to a vote of the shareholders during the fourth quarter of 1998. PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS. As of February 28, 1999, the Company had 4,078,535 shares of common stock outstanding held by a total of 1,957 shareholders. The current offering price per share is $10.00. There is no established public trading market for the Company's common stock. Under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, restrictions are imposed on ownership and transfer of shares. The Company will make distributions each taxable year (not including a return of capital for federal income tax purposes) equal to at least 95% of its real estate investment trust taxable income. The Company intends to make regular quarterly dividend distributions to holders of the shares. Dividends will be paid to those shareholders who are shareholders as of the record dates selected by the Directors. Dividends are currently declared monthly and paid on a quarterly basis. 11 Dividend distributions made to the shareholders during 1998 (the first year of operations) were as follows: Per Common Share ---------------- Distribution for Total Cash Investment Return of Quarter Ended Distributed Income Capital ---------------- ----------- ---------- --------- March 31, 1998 $ 0.00 $0.00 $0.00 June 30, 1998 $ 0.00 $0.00 $0.00 September 30, 1998 $102,987 $0.15 $0.00 December 31, 1998 $408,176 $0.16 $0.00 The fourth quarter dividend distributions for1998 were paid to shareholders in February, 1999. Although there is no assurance, Management of the Company anticipates that dividend distributions to shareholders will continue in 1999 at a level at least comparable with 1998 dividend distributions. ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA. The Company did not commence active operations until it received and accepted subscriptions for a minimum of 125,000 shares on June 5, 1998, and accordingly, there is no comparative financial data available from prior fiscal years. As of December 31, 1997, the Company's assets totaled approximately $490,073 consisting primarily of cash and deferred offering costs accrued. The following sets forth a summary of the selected financial data for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. 1998 ----------- Total assets $42,832,573 Total revenues 395,178 Net income 334,034 Net income allocated to Shareholders 334,034 Earnings per Share - Basic & Diluted 0.40 Cash Distributions 0.31 12 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATION. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Selected Financial Data and the accompanying financial statements of the Company and notes thereto. This Report contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including discussion and analysis of the financial condition of the Company, anticipated capital expenditures required to complete certain projects, amounts of cash distributions anticipated to be distributed to shareholders in the future and certain other matters. Readers of this Report should be aware that there are various factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement made in the Report, which include changes in general economic conditions, changes in real estate conditions, construction costs which may exceed estimates, construction delays, increases in interest rates, lease-up risks, inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of existing leases, and the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow. Results of Operations and Changes in Financial Conditions General On January 30, 1998, the Company commenced a public offering of up to $16,500,000 shares of common stock ($10.00 per share) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 filed under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company commenced active operations on June 5, 1998, when it received and accepted subscription for 125,000 shares. An aggregate requirement of $2,500,000 of offering proceeds, excluding New York and Pennsylvania, was reached on July 8, 1998, thus allowing for the admission of New York and Pennsylvania investors in the Company. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had sold 3,154,136 shares for total capital contributions of $31,541,360. After payment of $1,103,913 in Acquisition and Advisory Fees and Expenses, payment of $3,942,545 in selling commissions and organization and offering expenses and capital contributions and acquisitions expenditures by Wells OP of $18,442,540, the Company was holding net offering proceeds of $8,052,362 available for investment in properties, as of December 31, 1998. Gross revenues of the Company of $395,178 for the nine months ended December 31, 1998 were attributable to interest income earned on funds held by the Company prior to the investment in properties and income earned from joint ventures. Expenses of the Company were $61,144 for nine months ended December 31, 1998, and consisted primarily of administrative, accounting fees, and printing expenses. Since the Company did not commence active operations until it received and accepted subscriptions for a minimum of 125,000 shares on June 5, 1998, there is no comparative financial data available for the prior fiscal year. Net increase in cash and cash equivalents is primarily the result of raising $31,540,360 in common stock capital contributions offset by acquisition and advisory fees and expenses, commissions, offering costs and capital contributions to joint ventures. 13 Cash dividends of $0.16 per share were paid to shareholders for the fourth quarter of 1998. The Company has made an election under Section 856 (c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), to be taxed as a REIT under the Code beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. As a REIT, for federal income tax purposes, the Company generally will not be subject to Federal income tax on income that it distributes to its stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost. Such an event could materially adversely affect the Company's net income. However, the Company believes that it is organized and operates in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT for the year ended December 31, 1998. In addition, the Company intends to continue to operate the Company so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", requires certain transactions (e.g., unrealized gains/losses on available for sale securities) that are not reflected in net income to be displayed as other comprehensive income. The Statement also requires an entity to report total comprehensive income (i.e., net income plus other comprehensive income) for every period in which an income statement is presented. SFAS No. 130 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 1997. None of the transactions required to be reported in other comprehensive income currently pertain to the Company; consequently, adoption of this Statement has no impact on the Company's disclosures. Effective April 3, 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities". SOP 98-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998, and initial application is required to be reported as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. This SOP provides guidance on the financial reporting of start-up costs and organization costs. It requires costs of start- up activities and organization costs to be expensed as incurred. Adoption of this Statement by the Company in the first quarter of 1999 may result in the write-off of certain capitalized organization costs. Adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. 14 Property Operations As of December 31, 1998, the Company owned interests in the following operational properties: The ABB Building - IX-X-XI-REIT Joint Venture

For additional information on tenants, etc. refer to Item 2, Properties, page 3. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company commenced active operations on June 5, 1998, when it received and accepted subscriptions for 125,000 units. As of December 31, 1998, the Company raised $31,541,360 in capital through the sale of 3,154,136 shares. After payment of $5,046,458 in acquisition and advisory fees, selling commissions and organizational and offering expenses, and capital contributions and acquisitions expenditures by Wells OP of $18,442,540, as of December 31, 1998, the Company was holding net offering proceeds of approximately $8,052,362 available for investment in additional properties. The Company's net cash used in operating activities was 275,549 in 1998. Net cash used in investing activities of $33,500,807 in 1998 is primarily the result of investments in the joint ventures, investments in real estate, deferred project costs paid offset by distributions received from the joint ventures. Distribution to partners began in 1998. Net cash provided by financing activities is the result of raising $31,540,360 in 1998 in shareholders contributions less commissions and organizational and offering expenses. The Company's dividends paid and payable through the fourth quarter of 1998 have been paid from cash from operations and from distributions received from its equity investment in joint ventures. The Company anticipates that dividends will continue to be paid on a quarterly basis from such sources. The Company expects to meet liquidity requirements and budget demands through cash flow from operations. The Company expects to make future real estate investments, directly or through investments in joint ventures, from shareholder contributions. Inflation The real estate market has not been affected significantly by inflation in the past three years due to the relatively low inflation rate. There are provisions in the majority of tenant leases to protect the Company from the impact of inflation. These leases contain common area maintenance charges (CAM charges), real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per square foot bases, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain per square foot allowance. These provisions should reduce the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. Year 2000 The Company is presently reviewing the potential impact of Year 2000 compliance issues on its information systems and business operations. A full assessment of Year 2000 compliance issues was begun in late 1997 and is expected to be completed by March 31, 1999. Renovations and replacements of equipment have been and are being made as warranted as the assessment progresses. The costs incurred by the Company and its affiliates thus far for renovations and 23 replacements have been immaterial. Some testing of systems has begun and all testing is expected to be complete by June 30, 1999. As to the status of the Company's information technology systems, it is presently believed that all major systems and software packages with the exception of the accounting and property management package are Year 2000 compliant. The Company's affiliated entities are purchasing the upgrade for the accounting and property management package system; however, it is not slated to be available until the end of the first quarter of 1999. At the present time, it is believed that all major non-information technology systems are Year 2000 compliant. The cost to upgrade any non-compliant systems is believed to be immaterial. The Company is in the process of confirming with the Company's vendors, including third-party service providers such as banks, that their systems will be Year 2000 compliant. Based on the information received thus far, the primary third-party service providers with which the Company has relationships have confirmed their Year 2000 readiness. The Company relies on computers and operating systems provided by equipment manufactures, and also on application software designed for use with its accounting, property management and investment portfolio tracking. The Company has preliminarily determined that any costs, problems or uncertainties associated with the potential consequences of Year 2000 issues are not expected to have a material impact on the future operations or financial condition of the Company. The Company will perform due diligence as to the Year 2000 readiness of each property owned by the Company and each property contemplated for purchase by the Company. The Company's reliance on embedded computed systems (i.e., microcontrollers) is limited to facilities related matters, such as office security systems and environmental control systems. The Company is currently formulating contingency plans to cover any areas of concern. Alternate means of operating the business are being developed in the unlikely circumstance that the computer and phone system are rendered inoperable. An off-site facility from which the Company could operate is being sought as facility from which the Company could operate is being sought as well as alternate means of communication with key third-party vendors. A written plan is being developed for testing and dispensation to each staff member of the Advisor of the Company. Management believes that the Company's risk of Year 2000 problems is minimal. In the unlikely event there is a problem, the worst case scenarios would include the risks that the elevator or security systems within the Company's properties would fail or the key third-party vendors upon which the Company relies would be unable to provide accurate investor information. In the event that the elevator shuts down, the Company has devised a plan for each building whereby the tenants will use the stairs until the elevators are fixed. In the event that the security systems shuts down, the Company has devised a plan for each building to hire temporary on-site security guards.

These financial statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.

An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (the "Company") is a Maryland corporation that qualifies as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). The Company is conducting an offering for the sale of a maximum of 15,000,000 (exclusive of 1,500,000 shares available pursuant to the Company's dividend reinvestment plan) shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share, at a price of $10 per share. During 1997, the Company sold 100 shares to Wells Capital, Inc. (the "Advisor") at the proposed initial public offering price of $10 per share. The Company will seek to acquire and operate commercial properties, including, but not limited to, office buildings, shopping centers, business and industrial parks, and other commercial and industrial properties, including properties which are under construction, are newly constructed, or have been constructed and have operating histories. All such properties may be acquired, developed, and operated by the Company alone or jointly with another party. The Company is likely to enter into one or more joint ventures with affiliated entities for the acquisition of properties. In connection with this, the Company may enter into joint ventures for the acquisition of properties with prior or future real estate limited partnership programs sponsored by the Advisor or its affiliates. Substantially all of the Company's business is conducted through Wells Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"), a Delaware limited partnership. During 1997, the Operating Partnership issued 20,000 limited partner units to the Advisor in exchange for $200,000. The Company is the sole general partner in the Operating Partnership and possesses full legal control and authority over the operations of the Operating Partnership; consequently, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the amounts of the Operating Partnership. The Company owns interests in several properties through a joint venture among the Operating Partnership, Wells Real Estate Fund IX, L.P. ("Wells Fund IX"), Wells Real Estate Fund X, L.P. ("Wells Fund X"), and Wells Real Estate Fund XI, L.P. ("Wells Fund XI"). This joint venture is referred to as the Fund IX, Fund X, Fund XI, and REIT Joint Venture ("Fund IX, X, XI, and REIT Joint Venture"). In addition, the Company owns two properties through joint ventures between the Operating Partnership and a joint venture between Wells Fund X and Wells Fund XI, referred to as "Fund X and XI Associates." In addition, the Operating Partnership directly owns an office building in Tampa, Florida. Through its investment in the Fund IX, X, XI, and REIT Joint Venture, the Company owns interests in the following properties: (i) a three-story office building in Knoxville, Tennessee (the "ABB Building"), (ii) a two-story office building in Louisville, Colorado (the "Ohmeda Building"), (iii) a three-story office building in Broomfield, Colorado (the "360 Interlocken Building"), (iv) a one-story warehouse facility in Ogden, Utah (the "Iomega Building"), and (v) a one-story office building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (the "Lucent Technologies Building"). F-7 The following properties are owned by the Operating Partnership through investments in joint ventures with Fund X and XI Associates: (i) a one-story office and warehouse building in Fountain Valley, California (the "Cort Furniture Building") owned by Wells/Orange County Associates and (ii) a warehouse and office building in Fremont, California (the "Fairchild Building") owned by Wells/Fremont Associates. Use of Estimates and Factors Affecting the Company The preparation of the consolidated 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The carrying values of real estate are based on management's current intent to hold the real estate assets as long-term investments. The success of the Company's future operations and the ability to realize the investment in its assets will be dependent on the Company's ability to maintain rental rates, occupancy, and an appropriate level of operating expenses in future years. Management believes that the steps it is taking will enable the Company to realize its investment in its assets. Real Estate Assets Real estate assets held by the Company and joint ventures are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the related asset. All repair and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances which could indicate that carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable. When events or changes in circumstances are present which indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of real estate assets by determining whether the carrying value of such real estate assets will be recovered through the future cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Management has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of real estate assets held by the Company or the joint ventures as of December 31, 1998. Depreciation of building and improvements is calculated using the straight- line method over 25 years. Tenant improvements are amortized over the life of the related lease or the life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Investment in Joint Ventures The Operating Partnership does not have control over the operations of the joint ventures; however, it does exercise significant influence. Accordingly, the Operating Partnership's investment in the joint ventures is recorded using the equity method of accounting. Revenue Recognition All leases on real estate assets held by the Company or the joint ventures are classified as operating leases, and the related rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. F-8 Deferred Lease Acquisition Costs Costs incurred to procure operating leases are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. Cash and Cash Equivalents For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and consist of investments in money market accounts. 2. DEFERRED PROJECT COSTS The Company paid a percentage of shareholder contributions to the Advisor for acquisition and advisory services. These payments, as stipulated in the prospectus, can be up to 3.5% of shareholder contributions, subject to certain overall limitations contained in the prospectus. Aggregate fees paid through December 31, 1998 were $1,103,913 and amounted to 3.5% of shareholders' contributions received. These fees are allocated to specific properties as they are purchased or developed and are included in capitalized assets of the joint ventures or real estate assets. Deferred project costs at December 31, 1998 represent fees not yet applied to properties. 3. DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS Organization and offering expenses, to the extent they exceed 3% of gross proceeds, will be paid by the Advisor and not by the Company. Organization and offering expenses do not include sales or underwriting commissions but do include such costs as legal and accounting fees, printing costs, and other offering expenses. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Advisor had paid organization and offering expenses related to the Company of $946,211 and $0, respectively. 4. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Due from affiliates at December 31, 1998 represents the Operating Partnership's share of the cash to be distributed for the fourth quarter of 1998 as follows: Fund IX, X, XI, and REIT Joint Venture $ 38,360 Wells/Orange County Associates 77,123 Wells/Fremont Associates 146,862 -------- $262,345 ======== The Company entered into a property management agreement with Wells Management Company, Inc. ("Wells Management"), an affiliate of the Advisor. In consideration for supervising the management and leasing of the Operating Partnership's properties, the Operating Partnership will pay Wells Management management and leasing fees equal to the lesser of (a) fees that would be paid to a comparable outside firm, or (b) 4.5% of the gross revenues generally paid over the life of F-9 the lease plus a separate competitive fee for the one-time initial lease-up of newly constructed properties generally paid in conjunction with the receipt of the first month's rent. In the case of commercial properties which are leased on a long-term (ten or more years) net lease basis, the maximum property management fee from such leases shall be 1% of the gross revenues generally paid over the life of the leases except for a one-time initial leasing fee of 3% of the gross revenues on each lease payable over the first five full years of the original lease term. The Operating Partnership's portion of the management and leasing fees and lease acquisition costs paid to Wells Management by the joint ventures was $5,673 for the year ended December 31, 1998. The Advisor performs certain administrative services for the Operating Partnership, such as accounting and other partnership administration, and incurs the related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among the Operating Partnership and the various Wells Real Estate Funds based on time spent on each fund by individual administrative personnel. In the opinion of management, such allocation is a reasonable basis for allocating such expenses. The Advisor is a general partner in various Wells Real Estate Funds. As such, there may exist conflicts of interest where the Advisor, while serving in the capacity as general partner for Wells Real Estate Funds, may be in competition with the Operating Partnership for tenants in similar geographic markets. 5. INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES The Operating Partnership's investment and percentage ownership in joint ventures at December 31, 1998 is summarized as follows: AMOUNT PERCENT ----------- ------- Fund IX, X, XI, and REIT Joint Venture $ 1,443,378 4% Wells/Orange County Associates 2,958,617 44 Wells/Fremont Associates 7,166,682 78 ----------- $11,568,677 =========== The following is a roll forward of the Operating Partnership's investment in joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 1998: Investment in joint ventures, beginning of year $ 0 Equity in income of joint ventures 263,315 Contributions to joint ventures 11,745,890 Distributions from joint venture (440,528) ----------- Investment in joint ventures, end of year $11,568,677 =========== Fund IX, X, XI, and REIT Joint Venture On March 20, 1997, Wells Fund IX and Wells Fund X entered into a joint venture agreement. The joint venture, Fund IX and X Associates, was formed to acquire, develop, operate, and sell real properties. On March 20, 1997, Wells Fund IX contributed a 5.62-acre tract of real property in Knoxville, Tennessee, and improvements thereon, known as the ABB Building, to the Fund IX and F-10 X Associates joint venture. A 83,885-square-foot, three-story building was constructed and commenced operations at the end of 1997. On February 13, 1998, the joint venture purchased a two-story office building, known as the Ohmeda Building, in Louisville, Colorado. On March 20, 1998, the joint venture purchased a three-story office building, known as the 360 Interlocken Building, in Broomfield, Colorado. On June 11, 1998, Fund IX and X Associates was amended and restated to admit Wells Fund XI and the Operating Partnership. The joint venture was renamed the Fund IX, X, XI, and REIT Joint Venture. On June 24, 1998, the new joint venture purchased a one-story office building, known as the Lucent Technologies Building, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. On April 1, 1998, Wells Fund X purchased a one- story warehouse facility, known as the Iomega Building, in Ogden, Utah.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of this statement. F-28 THE OHMEDA BUILDING NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1998 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization and Business The Ohmeda Building ("Ohmeda") is a two-story office building located in Louisville, Colorado. The building is owned by Fund IX, X, XI, and REIT Associates, a joint venture between Wells Real Estate Fund IX, L.P. ("Fund IX"), Wells Real Estate Fund X, L.P. ("Fund X"), Wells Real Estate Fund XI, L.P. ("Fund XI"), and Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. ("REIT"). As of December 31, 1998, Fund IX, Fund X, Fund XI, and REIT owned 40%, 50%, 6%, and 4% of Ohmeda, respectively. Allocation of net income and distributions are made in accordance with ownership percentages. Use of Estimates 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Income Taxes Ohmeda is not deemed to be a taxable entity for federal income tax purposes. Real Estate Assets Real estate assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the related asset. All repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances which could indicate that carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable. When events or changes in circumstances are present which indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of real estate assets by determining whether the carrying value of such real estate assets will be recovered through the future cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Management has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of Ohmeda as of December 31, 1998. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over 25 years. F-29 Revenue Recognition The lease on Ohmeda is classified as an operating lease, and the related rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the lease. 2. RENTAL INCOME The future minimum rental income due Ohmeda under noncancelable operating leases at December 31, 1998 is as follows: Year ending December 31: 1999 $1,004,517 2000 1,004,517 2001 1,004,517 2002 1,004,517 2003 1,050,509 Thereafter 1,194,889 ---------- $6,263,466 ========== One tenant contributed 100% of rental income for the year ended December 31, 1998 and represents 100% of the future minimum rental income above. 3. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Fund IX, Fund X, Fund XI, and REIT entered into a property management agreement with Wells Management Company, Inc. ("Wells Management"), an affiliate of Fund IX, Fund X, Fund XI, and REIT. In consideration for supervising management of the property, Fund IX, Fund X, Fund XI, and REIT will generally pay Wells Management management and leasing fees equal to (a) 3% of the gross revenues for management and 3% of the gross revenues for leasing (aggregate maximum of 6%) plus a separate fee for the one-time initial lease-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm's-length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties or (b) in the case of commercial properties which are leased on a long-term net basis (ten or more years), 1% of the gross revenues except for initial leasing fees equal to 3% of the gross revenues over the first five years of the lease term.
