Status of the Offering On February 6, 1997, the Company commenced an offering (the "Offering") of up to 27,500,000 shares of common stock (the "Shares"). As of December 31, 1997, the Company had received subscription proceeds of $211,173,099 (21,117,310 Shares) including $1,872,648 (187,265 Shares) issued pursuant to the reinvestment plan, from 9,214 stockholders in connection with the Offering. The proceeds of the Offering will be used primarily to acquire properties (the "Properties") located across the United States to be leased on a long-term, triple-net basis to operators of selected national and regional fast-food, family-style and casual dining restaurant chains. The Company may also provide financing (the "Mortgage Loans") for the purchase of buildings, generally by lessees that lease the underlying land from the Company. Acquisition of Properties Between October 4, 1997 and December 31, 1997, the Company acquired 24 Properties, including 23 Properties consisting of land and building and one Property consisting of building only. These Properties are 13 Ground Round Properties (one in each of Allentown and Reading, Pennsylvania; Colerain and Parma, Ohio; Dubuque and Waterloo, Iowa; Janesville and Wauwatosa, Wisconsin; Gloucester and Ewing, New Jersey; Crystal, Minnesota; Kalamazoo, Michigan; and Nanuet, New York), three Jack in the Box Properties (one in each of Folsom and Los Angeles, California; and Florissant, Missouri), one On The Border Property (in San Antonio, Texas), one Wendy's Property (in Westlake Village, California), two Golden Corral Properties (one in each of Muskogee, Oklahoma; and Council Bluffs, Iowa) and four Chevy's Fresh Mex Properties (one in each of Beaverton and Lake Oswego, Oregon; Arapahoe, Colorado; and Greenbelt, Maryland). The Jack in the Box Properties in Folsom and Los Angeles, California, and Florissant, Missouri, were acquired from Affiliates of the Company. The Affiliates had purchased and temporarily held title to these Properties in order to facilitate their acquisition by the Company. The Properties were acquired by the Company for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $3,674,000, representing the cost of the Properties to the Affiliates (including carrying costs) due to the fact that the amounts were less than each Property's appraised value. In connection with the purchase of the 13 Ground Round Properties, the three Jack in the Box Properties, the one Wendy's Property, the two Golden Corral Properties and the four Chevy's Fresh Mex Properties, which are land and building, the Company, as lessor, entered into long-term lease agreements with unaffiliated lessees. The leases are on a triple-net basis, with the lessee responsible for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and utilities. The lessee also is required to pay for special assessments, sales and use taxes, and the cost of any renovations permitted under the lease. For the Properties that are to be constructed, the Company has entered into development and indemnification and put agreements with the lessees. In connection with the On The Border Property in San Antonio, Texas, which is building only, the Company, as lessor, entered into a long-term lease agreement with an unaffiliated lessee. In connection with the purchase of this Property, which is to be constructed, the Company has entered into development and indemnification and put agreements with the lessee. In connection with this acquisition, the Company has also entered into a tri-party agreement with the lessee and the owner of the land. The tri-party agreement provides that the ground lessee is responsible for all obligations under the ground lease and provides certain rights to the Company relating to the maintenance of its interest in the building in the event of a default by the lessee under the terms of the ground lease. - 1 - The following table sets forth the location of the 24 Properties, including 23 Properties consisting of land and building and one Property consisting of building only, acquired by the Company, from October 4, 1997 through December 31, 1997, a description of the competition, and a summary of the principal terms of the acquisition and lease of each Property. - 2 - PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS From October 4, 1997 through December 31, 1997 Lease Expira- Property Location and Purchase Date tion and Minimum Option To Competition Price (1) Acquired Renewal Options Annual Rent (2) Percentage Rent Purchase - --------------------- ------------ -------- --------------- --------------- --------------- --------- Jack in the Box (5) $1,076,237 10/17/97 09/2015; four $110,243 (6); for each lease at any time (the "Florissant (3)(6) five-year increases by 8% year, (i) 5% of after the Property") renewal options after the fifth lease annual gross seventh Restaurant to be year and after every sales minus lease year constructed five years thereafter (ii) the during the lease minimum The Florissant term annual rent for Property is located on such lease the southern quadrant year (7) of Charbonier Road and Howdershell Road, in Florissant, St. Louis County, Missouri, in an area of mixed retail, commercial, and residential development. - 3 - Jack in the Box (5) $1,263,688 10/17/97 09/2015; four $129,482 (6); for each lease None (the "Folsom (3)(6) five-year increases by 8% year, (i) 5% of Property") renewal options after the fifth lease annual gross Restaurant to be year and after every sales minus constructed five years thereafter (ii) the during the lease minimum The Folsom Property term annual rent for is located on the such lease eastern quadrant of year (7) Blue Ravine Road and East Bidwell Street, in Folsom, Sacramento County, California, in an area of mixed retail, commercial, and residential development.

The categorization of the leases has no effect on rental revenues received. Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Earnings: (1) Represents rental income from operating leases and earned income from direct financing leases for eight of the properties acquired during the period January 1, 1996 through December 31, 1997, which had a previous rental history prior to the acquisition of the property by the Company (the "Pro Forma Properties"), for the period commencing (A) the later of (i) the date the Pro Forma Property became operational as a rental property by the previous owner or (ii) January 1, 1996, to (B) the earlier of (i) the date the Pro Forma Property was acquired by the Company or (ii) the end of the pro forma period presented. Each of the eight Pro Forma Properties was acquired from an affiliate who had purchased and temporarily held title to the property. The noncancellable leases for the Pro Forma Properties in place during the period the affiliate owned the properties were assigned to the Company at the time the Company acquired the properties. The following presents the actual date the Pro Forma Properties were acquired or placed in service by the Company as compared to the date the Pro Forma Properties were treated as becoming operational as a rental property for purposes of the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Earnings.

For operating leases providing escalating guaranteed minimum rents, income is reported on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. For leases accounted for as direct financing leases, future minimum lease payments are recorded as a receivable. The difference between the receivable and the estimated residual values less the cost of the properties is recorded as unearned income. The unearned income is amortized over the lease terms to provide a constant rate of return. Accordingly, pro forma rental income from operating leases and earned income from direct financing leases does not necessarily represent rental payments that would have been received if the properties had been operational for the full pro forma period. - 45 - CNL AMERICAN PROPERTIES FUND, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 AND THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Earnings - Continued: - --------------------------------------------------------- Generally, the leases provide for the payment of percentage rent in addition to base rental income. However, due to the fact that no percentage rent was due under the leases for the Pro Forma Properties during the portion of 1996 and 1997 that the previous owners held the properties, no pro forma adjustment was made for percentage rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996. (2) See Note (b) under "Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet" above for a description of direct financing leases. (3) Represents adjustment to interest income due to the decrease in the amount of cash available for investment in interest bearing accounts during the periods commencing (A) on the later of (i) the dates the Pro Forma Properties became operational as rental properties by the previous owners or (ii) January 1, 1996, through (B) the earlier of (i) the actual dates of acquisition by the Company or the end of the pro forma period presented, as described in Note (1) above. The estimated pro forma adjustment is based upon the fact that interest income on interest bearing accounts was earned at a rate of approximately four percent per annum by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996. (4) Represents incremental increase in asset management fees relating to the Pro Forma Properties for the period commencing (A) on the later of (i) the date the Pro Forma Properties became operational as rental properties by the previous owners or (ii) January 1, 1996 through (B) the earlier of (i) the date the Pro Forma Properties were acquired by the Company or (ii) the end of the pro forma period presented, as described in Note (1) above. Asset management fees are equal to 0.60% of the Company's Real Estate Asset Value (estimated to be approximately $873,000 and $3,509,000 for the Pro Forma Properties for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively), as defined in the Company's prospectus. (5) Represents adjustment to state tax expense due to the incremental increase in rental revenues of Pro Forma Properties. Estimated pro forma state tax expense was calculated based on an analysis of state laws of the various states in which the Company has acquired the Pro Forma Properties. The estimated pro forma state taxes consist primarily of income and franchise taxes ranging from zero to approximately two percent of the Company's pro forma rental income of each Pro Forma Property. Due to the fact that the Company's leases are triple net, the Company has not included any amounts for real estate taxes in the pro forma statement of earnings. (6) Represents incremental increase in depreciation expense of the building portions of the Pro Forma Properties accounted for as operating leases using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 30 years. (7) Historical earnings per share were calculated based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996. - 46 - Item 8.
