Pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) File No. 333-72404 Gen-Net Lease Income Trust, Inc. A Real Estate Investment Trust Offering $25,000,000 2,500,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK $10.00 PER SHARE Supplement to Prospectus Dated October 10, 2002 ----------------- ATTENTION PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ----------------- The statements in this Supplement should be read carefully and considered in connection with your review of the prospectus, the receipt of which must precede or accompany this Supplement. 1. Since issuing the prospectus, Gen-Net's Directors have approved a property purchase as described below. The following information supplements the description of Gen-Net's properties throughout the prospectus. Property Acquisition. Federal Express Corporation Distribution Center, Harahan, Louisiana. Description. On December 2, 2002, Gen-Net's Board of Directors unanimously approved entering into a contract to purchase the real estate and improvements located at 6371 Humphreys Street, Harahan, Louisiana. The property consists of a 4.98 acre, rectangular shaped parcel. The improvements consist of a single-story 70,707 square foot warehouse. The property is presently leased to Federal Express Corporation, pursuant to a long-term Net Lease (the "Federal Express Lease"). Federal Express operates a warehouse/distribution center from the property. Federal Express is a publicly held company. The Board of Directors has reviewed the publicly available financial statements of Federal Express and determined that Federal Express meets all of the Company's established criteria with respect to the creditworthiness of prospective tenants, as described in the prospectus. Lease Information. The Federal Express Lease is for an initial term of 15 years and will expire on February 29, 2016. The tenant has the option to renew the lease for two additional terms of five years each. The base annual minimum rent during the initial term of the lease is $363,440.28. The tenant is responsible for the improvement and maintenance of all interior spaces, as well as installation and maintenance of water heaters, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning units, and basic life safety features. The tenant also pays all real estate 1 taxes on the property as well as utilities. Gen-Net believes that the property is maintained in good condition and that the insurance policies presently in effect adequately cover the replacement costs of the property and any personal liability losses which the tenant may sustain. Terms of Acquisition. The aggregate purchase price of the property is $4,260,000. The purchase is subject to a 75% loan to value mortgage with Nomura Capital. Gen-Net is borrowing $3,200,000 from Nomura Capital to purchase the property. The loan has a 7 year term. Monthly payments are amortized on a 27 year schedule, with a balloon payment due at the end of the 7 year loan term. The loan carries a 5.70% fixed interest rate. The transaction is set to close on December 20, 2002, with closing contingent on Gen-Net's raising the minimum amount in the offering. Competitive Conditions. Although Federal Express has substantial direct competition in the expedited delivery business, there is no competition in close proximity to the property, which is linked directly to New Orleans International Airport. Pro-Forma Financial Information. The tables attached to this supplement as Exhibit A present unaudited pro-forma financial information for Gen-Net, giving effect to the acquisition of the property described above. 2. The fourth sentence of the second paragraph and the third paragraph under the heading "CONFLICTS OF INTEREST--Competition for the Time and Services of Directors, Officers, Genesis and the Bartons" on page 16 of the prospectus are deleted in their entireties and are replaced by the following language: "Gen-Net's Board of Directors and Genesis have a written agreement that, in the event that an investment opportunity becomes available which is suitable for both Gen-Net and another Genesis Affiliate, for which both entities have sufficient uninvested funds, then the entity which has had the largest period of time elapse since it was offered an investment opportunity will first be offered the investment opportunity. In determining whether or not an investment opportunity is suitable for more than one program, Genesis and its Affiliates will examine such factors, among others, as the cash requirements of each program, the effect of the acquisition both on diversification of each program's investments by types of properties and geographic area, and on diversification of the tenants of its properties (which also may affect the need for one of the programs to prepare or produce audited financial statements for a property or a tenant), the anticipated cash flow of each program, the site of the investment, the amount of funds available to each program, and the length of time such funds have been available for investment. If a subsequent development, such as a delay in the closing of a property or a delay in the construction of a property, causes any such investment, in the opinion of Genesis and its Affiliates, to be more appropriate for an entity other than the entity which committed to make the investment, however, Genesis has the right to agree that the other Affiliate may make the investment." "The Bartons, who control Genesis, hold no positions or offices with Gen-Net." 3. Footnote (1) to the ESTIMATED USE OF PROCEEDS table on page 19 of the prospectus is revised to include the following language: "Gen-Net may also enter into wholesaling arrangements with other NASD-member broker-dealers to assist in marketing the shares. Wholesalers will be paid compensation of up to 1%. They will also be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses. Compensation to wholesalers is not part of the compensation paid to Investors Capital or Selected Dealers." 2 4. The table on pages 35 and 36 of the prospectus are revised as follows: a. Under the ACQUISITION STAGE heading, the discussion of Acquisition Fees under the subheading Method of Compensation is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language: "Genesis (or other third party acting on behalf of Gen-Net) may receive a fee of up to 1% of the property purchase price." The second sentence in the discussion of Acquisition Expenses under the subheading Method of Compensation is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language: "Total Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses will not exceed 4% of the property purchase price." b. Under the LIQUIDATION STAGE heading, the discussion of Disposition Fees under the subheading Method of Compensation is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language: "Genesis (or other third party acting on behalf of Gen-Net) will receive a fee of up to 3% of the property sale price. In no event will the amount paid to Genesis, when added to the sums paid to unaffiliated parties upon the disposition of a property, exceed the lesser of a competitive real estate commission or 4% of the property sale price." 5.
