III NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. THE PARTNERSHIP AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES: Captec Franchise Capital Partners L.P. III (the "Partnership"), a Delaware limited partnership, was formed on February 18, 1994 for the purpose of acquiring income-producing commercial real properties and equipment leased on a "triple net" or "double net" basis, primarily to operators of national and regional chain and nationally franchised fast food and family style restaurants, as well as other national and regional retail chains. The general partners of the Partnership upon formation of the Partnership were Captec Franchise Capital Corporation III (the "Corporation"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Captec Financial Group, Inc. ("Captec"), and Patrick L. Beach, an individual, hereinafter collectively referred to as the Sponsor. Patrick L. Beach is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation and Captec. The general partners each contributed $100 in cash to the Partnership as a capital contribution. In August, 1998 the general partnership interest of the Partnership was acquired by Captec Net Lease Realty, Inc., an affiliate of Captec, for $1,483,000. The Partnership commenced a public offering of 20,000 limited partnership interests ("Units") on August 12, 1994 and reached final funding in August,1996. Net proceeds after offering expenses were approximately $17.4 million. During 1997, the Partnership repurchased a total of 37 units. At September 30, 1998, the Partnership had 19,963 units issued and outstanding. Allocation of profits, losses and cash distributions from operations and cash distributions from sale or refinancing are made pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement. Profits and losses from operations are allocated among the limited partners based upon the number of Units owned. In no event will the General Partners be allocated less than one percent of profits and losses in any year. The balance sheet of the Partnership as of September 30, 1998 and the statements of operations and cash flows for the period ending September 30, 1998 and 1997 have not been audited. In the opinion of the Management, these unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Partnership for the periods then ended. Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. 5 8 CAPTEC FRANCHISE CAPITAL PARTNERS L.P. III NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2.

III PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations When used in this discussion, the words, "intends", "anticipates", "expects", and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Such risks and uncertainties include the following: (i) a tenant may default in making rent payments, (ii) a fire or other casualty may interrupt the cash flow stream from a property, (iii) the properties may not be able to be leased at the assumed rental rates, (iv) unexpected expenses may be incurred in the ownership of the properties, and (v) properties may not be able to be sold at the presently anticipated prices and times. As a result of these and other factors, the Partnership may experience material fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly or annual basis, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and operating results. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. The Partnership undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL COMMITMENTS: The Partnership commenced the offering (the "Offering") of up to 20,000 limited partnership units ("Units") registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by means of a Registration Statement which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 12, 1994. The Offering reached final funding on August 12, 1996 with subscriptions for the entire 20,000 Units and funds totaling $20,000,000. Net proceeds after offering expenses were $17,400,000. During 1998, the Partnership expects to obtain leverage of up to approximately $8.5 million. Such leverage, when incurred, will provide additional funds to be used by the Partnership to purchase properties and equipment. Presently, the Sponsor is in active negotiations for the financing commitment for this leverage. At September 30, 1998, the partnership had $14.2 million invested in eleven net leased real estate properties and $2.5 million invested in eight equipment packages. As of September 30, 1998 the Partnership's investments were allocated approximately 85% to properties and 15% to equipment. This allocation is expected to change as additional properties and equipment are acquired. The final asset mix allocation is expected to be at least 75%, but not more than 90% properties and up to 25%, but not less than 10% equipment. Once substantially all of the Partnership's funds have been applied as intended, the Partnership expects to require limited amounts of liquid assets since the form of lease which it intends to use for its properties and equipment will require lessees to pay all taxes and assessments, maintenance and repairs items (except, with respect to double net properties, costs associated with the maintenance and repair of the exterior walls and roof of the property) and insurance premiums, including casualty insurance. The general partners expect that the 7 10 CAPTEC FRANCHISE CAPITAL PARTNERS L.P. III PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION cash flow to be generated by the Partnership's properties and equipment will be adequate to pay operating expenses and provide distributions to Limited Partners. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998. During the three months ended September 30, 1998 (the "Quarter") total operating revenue decreased 3% to $472,000 as compared to $488,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 (the "1997 Quarter"). The decrease in revenues resulted from the sale of equipment under one financing lease in February, 1998 and the suspension of revenue associated with the impairment of one financing lease. Operating expenses were approximately $70,000 for the Quarter as compared to approximately $66,000 for the 1997 Quarter. Other income declined to $3,376 in the Quarter from $8,591 in the 1997 Quarter, principally due to the recognition of a gain on sale of equipment in the 1997 Quarter. As a result of the foregoing, the Partnership's net income decreased 6% to $406,000 for the Quarter as compared to $430,000 for the 1997 Quarter. NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998. During the nine months ended September 30, 1998 ("1998") operating revenue decreased 3% to $1,436,000 as compared to $1,481,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 ("1997"). The decrease in revenues resulted from the sale of one equipment property in February, 1998 and the suspension of revenue associated with the impairment of one financing lease. Operating expenses were approximately $226,000 for 1998 as compared to approximately $231,000 for 1997. Other income decreased to $9,651 in 1998 from approximately $62,000 in 1997, as interest income was earned in 1997 from funds raised and not yet used to acquire properties. As a result of the foregoing, the Partnership's net income decreased 7% to $1,220,000 for 1998 as compared to $1,313,000 for 1997. DISTRIBUTIONS. The Partnership announced third quarter distributions of $517,000, of which $447,782 was distributed to its limited partners on October 15, 1998 and the remaining $69,218 will be distributed to those limited partners who elected to receive distributions on a monthly basis. 8 11 CAPTEC FRANCHISE CAPITAL PARTNERS L.P.
