Unaudited Financial Statements These financial statements for interim periods are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to a fair presentation of the financial statements as of September 30, 2001 and 2000 have been recorded. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future interim periods or for the full year. 2. Organization and Nature of Operations IRT Partners L.P. ("LP"), a Georgia limited partnership formed July 15, 1998, is the entity through which IRT Property Company (the "Company"), a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT"), conducts a portion of its business and owns (either directly or through subsidiaries) a portion of its assets. The Company is the sole general partner of LP and maintains an indirect partnership interest through its wholly-owned subsidiary, IRT Management Company. The Company initially contributed 20 shopping centers, related assets and cash to LP in exchange for 8,486,217 limited partnership units ("OP Units"). The Company was issued additional OP Units in exchange for cash contributions to fund further acquisition activity. Since the formation of LP, the Company has contributed cash to acquire six shopping centers, and LP has divested five shopping centers. At September 30, 2001, the Company owned approximately 94.1% of LP. LP was formed by the Company in order to enhance the Company's acquisition opportunities by offering potential sellers the ability to engage in tax deferred sales of properties in exchange for OP Units. In August 1998, certain unaffiliated persons contributed their interests in three Florida shopping centers in exchange for a total of 815,852 OP Units. LP is obligated to redeem each OP Unit held by a person other than the Company, at the request of the holder, for cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock at the time of such redemption, provided that the Company may elect to acquire any such OP Unit presented for redemption for one common share or cash. Such limited partnership interest held by persons unaffiliated with the Company is reflected as "Limited Partners' Capital Interest" in the accompanying balance sheets at the cash redemption amount on the balance sheet dates. Federal income tax laws require the Company, as a REIT, to distribute 90% of its ordinary taxable income for 2001 (95% for 2000 and earlier). LP makes quarterly distributions to holders of OP Units to enable the Company to satisfy this requirement. At September 30, 2001, LP owns 24 neighborhood and community shopping centers located in Florida, Tennessee, Georgia and North Carolina. The shopping centers are anchored by necessity-oriented retailers such as supermarkets, drug stores and/or discount variety stores. 6 3. Rental Properties
