Franklin Street Partners Limited Partnership
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Organization and Operations

Franklin Street Partners Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") was formed as a
Massachusetts limited partnership on February 4, 1997. The Partnership owns a
99% interest in FSP Investments LLC ("FSP Investments") and a 99% interest in
FSP Property Management LLC ("FSP Property Management").

The Partnership operates in two business segments: rental operations and
investment services. FSP Investments provides real estate investment and
broker/dealer services. FSP Investment's services include: (i) the organization
of real estate investment trusts ("REIT") entities (the "Sponsored REITs"),
which are syndicated through private placements; (ii) the acquisition of real
estate on behalf of the Sponsored REITs; and (iii) the sale through best efforts
prior to placements of preferred stock in Sponsored REITs.

During 1999 and 2000, a total of seventeen Sponsored Partnerships were merged
into the Partnership. The Partnership previously owned a 5% general partner
interest in each of the Sponsored Partnerships. The mergers were tax-free
reorganizations accounted for similar to a pooling of interest, whereby the
assets and liabilities of the Sponsored Partnerships were recorded at their
historic book values and transaction costs were charged to expenses.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in the Partnership's annual financial statements have been condensed or
omitted. The interim financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect
all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim
periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. These adjustments are of a normal and
recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30,
2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
full year ending December 31, 2001.

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000, which are
contained in the Partnership's Form 10 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC").

Management's Estimates and Assumptions

The accompanying financial statements were prepared by the Partnership in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which require
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 reported period. The Partnership reviews all significant
estimates affecting the financial statements on a recurring basis and records
the effect of any necessary adjustments prior to their issuance. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

Net Income Per Partnership Unit

The Partnership follows SFAS No. 128 "Earnings per Share", which specifies the
computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for the Partnership's net
income per partnership unit. Basic net income per unit is computed by dividing
net income by the weighted average number of partnership units outstanding
during period. Diluted net income per unit reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if securities or other contracts to issue units were exercised or
converted into units. There were no potential dilutive units outstanding at June
30, 2001 and 2000.

The partnership units issued in connection with the merger transactions have
been treated as outstanding for all periods presented since the date of
inception of each acquired partnership.

Business Segments

Segment operating results are measured and assessed based on a performance
measure known as Funds From Operations ("FFO"). FFO is defined as net income
(computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) plus
depreciation and amortization and other non-cash expenses. FFO is not a measure
of operating results or cash flows from operating activities as measured by
generally accepted accounting principles, and is not necessarily indicative of
cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to
cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

The Partnership's net income for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was $6.0
million reflecting an increase of $5.4 million over the net income of $666
thousand during the comparable period in 2000. The Partnership's net income for
the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $12.2 million reflecting an increase of
$11.2 million over the net income of $1.0 million during the comparable period
in 2000. The increase in net income during the 2001 periods compared to 2000
resulted primarily from increased investment service income related to the
syndication of Sponsored REIT's in 2001.


9
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)

Revenues

Total revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2001 increased by $6.7
million or 100% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2000. Total revenues
increased $13.1 million or 99%, to $26.3 million for the six months ended June
30, 2001, as compared to $13.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000.
Income from rental operations was $13.3 million for the six months ended June
30, 2001 compared to $12.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

The increase in rental income of $559 thousand, or 4.4%, compared to the six
months ended June 30, 2000, is attributable to:

o the acquisition of one commercial property in 2000, which generated
revenue for a full year in 2001 compared with a partial year in 2000,
resulting in $300 thousand in additional revenue;

o the increase in rents for one property of approximately $425 thousand;

o the net increase in other rents of about $305 thousand less vacancies and
delinquencies of approximately $170 thousand;

o offset by increased delinquencies in one property of approximately $300
thousand, substantially all of which occurred during the quarter ended
June 30, 2001.

The increase in investment services (syndication and commission) income of $6.3
million and $12.1 million for the three months and six months ended June 30,
2001, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2000, is attributable to the
syndication of three Sponsored REIT's in 2001. The Partnership syndicated three
Sponsored Partnerships during the six months ended June 30, 2000 and generated
syndication and commission fees of $6.0 million; however, these fees are
eliminated in the consolidated results.

The increase in interest and other income of $118 thousand and $458 thousand for
the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 2000, is attributable to interest earned on higher cash
balances, cash equivalents and marketable securities and higher average yields
in 2001 compared to 2000.

Expenses

Total expenses increased $1.4 million or 22% and $2.0 million or 16% for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively, compared to the
same periods in 2000.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $1.4 million or
26%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000, is attributable to:

o increased broker commissions and related costs of approximately $1.7
million;

o increased professional fees of approximately $115 thousand;

o increased other costs of approximately $120 thousand;

o offset by decreased payroll and related expenses of approximately $535
thousand.

The increase in other real estate operating expenses of $470 thousand or 16%,
compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000, is primarily attributable to:

o an increase in the allowance for bad debts of $200 thousand, all of which
occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2001; and

o increased other costs of $270 thousand.


10
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)

Expenses (Continued)

Depreciation and amortization expenses in 2001 approximated depreciation and
amortization expenses for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2000
due to consistent levels of property.

The increase in real estate taxes and insurance expenses of $72 thousand or 5.4%
for the six months ended June 30, 2001, compared to the six months ended June
30, 2000 is primarily attributable to a general increase in real estate taxes.

The decrease in interest expense of $101 thousand or 20% for the six months
ended June 30, 2001, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000, is
primarily attributable to the decrease in outstanding debt balances during 2001
compared to 2000.

The minority interest for the year six months ended June 30, 2001 approximated
the minority interest for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $22.3 million and $13.7 million at June 30, 2001
and December 31, 2000, respectively. This 25.9% increase of $8.6 million is
attributable to $17.5 million provided by operating activities and $21.1 million
provided by investing activities partially offset by $30.0 million used by
financing activities.

Operating Activities

The Partnership's cash provided by operating activities of $17.5 million is
primarily attributable to:

o $14.3 million from operations, after addback of $2.1 million from non cash
expenses, primarily depreciation and amortization;

o $2.7 million from the increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses,
and

o $0.5 million from the net change in other operating assets and
liabilities.

Investing Activities

The Partnership's cash provided by investing activities of $21.1 million is
primarily attributable to:

o $16.5 million from the proceeds of a loan to a related party;

o $4.3 million from the sale of marketable securities; and

o $0.3 million provided by the proceeds from the sale of excess land
partially offset by the purchase of other property and equipment.

Financing Activities

The Partnership's cash used for financing activities of $30.0 million is
attributable to:

o $13.4 million cash distributions to partners;

o $16.5 million of net repayments under the line of credit facility.


11
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)

In the near term, liquidity is generated from funds from ongoing real estate
operations and investment services fees and commissions received in connection
with the sale of shares by new Sponsored REITs.

The Partnership maintains an unsecured line of credit through Citizens Bank. The
Partnership has entered into a Master Promissory Note and Loan Agreement which
provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $53 million. Borrowings under
the loan bear interest at either the bank's base rate or a variable LIBOR rate.
The Partnership uses the unsecured line of credit to provide each newly-formed
Sponsored REIT with the funds to purchase its property. The Partnership loans
the purchase price of the property, at an interest rate equivalent to the rate
which the Partnership is paying to the bank and takes back a mortgage. The
Partnership collects a commitment fee from the Sponsored REIT. The loan is paid
back in full from the capital contributions of each Sponsored REIT's investors.
The Partnership's loan agreement with the bank includes customary restrictions
on property liens and requires compliance with various financial covenants.
Financial covenants include maintaining minimum cash balances in operating
accounts, tangible net worth of at least $104 million and compliance with other
various debt and income ratios. The Partnership was in compliance with all
covenants as of June 30, 2001.

As part of a syndication of a Sponsored REIT, the Partnership entered into an
agreement whereby the Partnership agreed to purchase a certain additional
property if the owner of the property offered the property for sale. The price
of the property ranges from $15 million to $22 million based upon a formula. The
seller must deliver notice to the Partnership of its intent to sell the property
no later than the end of May 2002. In the event that the Partnership is unable
to syndicate this property the Partnership would have to borrow under its
revolving credit facility.

The Partnership did not have any borrowings under its revolving credit facility
as of June 30, 2001.

The Partnership's real properties generate rental income to cover the ordinary,
annual operating expenses of the properties and to fund distributions to
partners. As of June 30, 2001, the rental income covered the expenses for each
of the Partnership's real properties. In addition to rental income, the
Partnership maintains cash reserves that may be used to fund extraordinary
expenses or major capital expenses. The cash reserves were set aside when the
Sponsored Partnerships that the Partnership has acquired were originally
syndicated. The cash reserves, included in cash and cash equivalents, as of June
30, 2001 of approximately $7.2 million are in excess of the known needs for
extraordinary expenses or capital improvements for the real properties within
the next few years. There are no external restrictions on these reserves, and
they may be used for any Partnership purpose.

Although there is no guarantee we will be able to obtain the funds necessary for
our future growth, we anticipate generating funds from continuing real estate
operations and from fees and commissions from the sale of shares in newly-formed
Sponsored REITs. The Partnership believes that it has adequate funds to cover
extraordinary expenses and capital improvements, in addition to normal operating
expenses.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company was not a party to derivative commodity investments at or during the
year ended December 31, 2000 or during the six months ended June 30, 2001. The
Company's only other financial instruments (as defined by financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 107) are its cash and cash equivalents and
marketable securities for which cost approximates market value.

The Company's only indebtedness consists of draws from time to time upon its
line of credit. These borrowings bear interest at a variable rate. The Company
uses the funds it draws on its line of credit only for the purpose of making
interim mortgage loans to Sponsored REITs. These mortgage loans bear interest at
the same variable rate payable by the Company under its line of credit.
Therefore, the Company believes that it has mitigated its interest rate risk
with respect to its borrowings.
