Registration No. 33-78790 As filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 26, 1996 SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Washington, D.C. 20549 POST-EFFECTIVE AMENDMENT NO. SIX TO FORM S-11 REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED CNL AMERICAN PROPERTIES FUND, INC. (Exact Name of Registrant as Specified in Charter) 400 East South Street, Suite 500 Orlando, Florida 32801 Telephone: (407) 422-1574 (Address of principal executive offices) COPIES TO: Thomas H. McCormick, ESQUIRE EDMUND D. GRAFF, ESQUIRE Shaw, Pittman, Potts & Trowbridge 2300 N Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20037 CNL American Porperties Fund, Inc. Supplement No. 6, dated July 26, 1996 to the Prospectus, dated April 26, 1996 This Supplement is part of, and should be read in conjunction with, the Prospectus dated April 26, 1996. This Supplement replaces all prior Supplements to the Prospectus. Capitalized terms used in this Supplement have the same meaning as in the Prospectus unless otherwise stated herein. Information as to proposed properties for which the Company has received initial commitments and as to the number and types of Properties acquired by the Company is presented as of July 16, 1996, and all references to commitments or Property acquisitions should be read in that context. Proposed properties for which the Company receives initial commitments, as well as property acquisitions that occur after July 16, 1996, will be reported in a subsequent Supplement. THE OFFERING As of July 16, 1996, the Company had received aggregate subscription proceeds of $80,598,079 (8,059,808 Shares) from 4,663 stockholders, including $243,167 (24,317 Shares) issued pursuant to the Reinvestment Plan. As of July 16, 1996, the Company had invested or committed for investment approximately $66,000,000 of such proceeds in 72 Properties (including one Property through a joint venture arrangement which consists of land and building, five Properties which consist of building only, 33 Properties which consist of land only and 33 Properties which consist of land and building), in providing mortgage financing to the tenants of the 33 Properties consisting of land only and to pay Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses, leaving approximately $4,200,000 in offering proceeds available for investment in Properties and Mortgage Loans. As of July 16, 1996, the Company had incurred $3,626,914 in Acquisition Fees to the Advisor. BUSINESS PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS Between April 10, 1996 and July 16, 1996, the Company acquired 24 Properties, including two Properties consisting of building only, 12 Properties consisting of land and building and ten Properties consisting of land only. The Properties are one TGI Friday's Property (in Hamden, Connecticut), three Wendy's Properties (one in each of Knoxville and Sevierville, Tennessee, and Camarillo, California), one Golden Corral Property (in Port Richey, Florida), two Denny's Properties (one in each of Hillsboro and McKinney, Texas), four Boston Market Properties (one in each of Ellisville, Missouri; Golden Valley, Minnesota; Corvallis, Oregon; and Rockwall, Texas), two Jack in the Box Properties (in Humble and Houston, Texas), one Arby's (in Kendallville, Indiana) and ten Pizza Hut Properties (one in each of Beaver, Bluefield, Huntington, Hurricane, Milton, Ronceverte, Beckley, Belle and Cross Lanes, West Virginia, and Marietta, Ohio) (hereinafter referred to as the "Ten Pizza Hut Properties"). For information regarding the 48 Properties acquired by the Company prior to April 10, 1996, see the Prospectus dated April 26, 1996. The Denny's Property in McKinney, Texas, was acquired from an Affiliate of the Company. The Affiliate had purchased and temporarily held title to the Property in order to facilitate the acquisition of the Property by the Company. The Property was acquired by the Company for a purchase price of $977,256 from an Affiliate of the Company. The Property was acquired at a cost equal to the cost of the Property to the Affiliate (including carrying costs) due to the fact that these amounts were less than the Property's appraised value. In connection with the purchase of the TGI Friday's and the Wendy's Properties in Hamden, Connecticut, and Sevierville, Tennessee, respectively, which are building only, the Company, as lessor, entered into long-term lease agreements with unaffiliated lessees. The general terms of the lease agreements are described in the section of the Prospectus entitled "Business - Description of Property Leases." In connection with the purchase of these Properties, which a r e to be constructed, the Company has entered into development and indemnification and put agreements with the lessees. The general terms of these agreements are described in the section of the Prospectus entitled "Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties - Construction and Renovation." In connection with these acquisitions, the Company has also entered into tri-party agreements with the lessees and the owners of the land. The tri-party agreements provide that the ground lessees are responsible for all obligations under the ground leases and provide certain rights to the Company relating to the maintenance of its interests in the buildings in the event of a default by the lessees under the terms of the ground leases. In connection with the purchase of the Wendy's Properties in Knoxville, Tennessee, and Camarillo, California, the Golden Corral Property, the Denny's Properties, the Boston Market Properties, the Jack in the Box Properties and the Arby's Property, which are land and building, the Company, as lessor entered into long-term lease agreements with unaffiliated lessees. The general terms of the lease agreements are described in the section of the Prospectus entitled "Business - Description of Property Leases." For the Properties that are to be constructed, the Company has entered into development and indemnification and put agreements with the lessees. The general terms of these agreements are described in the section of the Prospectus entitled "Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties - Construction and Renovation." In connection with the Ten Pizza Hut Properties, which are land only, the Company acquired the land and is leasing these ten parcels to the lessee, Castle Hill Holdings VI, L.L.C. ("Castle Hill"), pursuant to a master lease agreement (the "Master Lease Agreement"). Castle Hill has subleased the Ten Pizza Hut Properties to one of its affiliates, Midland Food Services L.L.C., which is the operator of the restaurants. The general terms of the Master Lease Agreement are similar to those described in the section of the Prospectus entitled "Business - Description of Property Leases." If the lessee does not exercise its option to purchase the Properties upon termination of the Master Lease Agreement, the sublessee and lessee will surrender possession of the Properties to the Company, together with any improvements on such Properties. The lessee owns the buildings located on the Ten Pizza Hut Properties. In connection with the acquisition of the Ten Pizza Hut Properties, the Company provided mortgage financing of $3,888,000 to the lessee pursuant to a Mortgage Loan evidenced by a master mortgage note (the "Master Mortgage Note") which is collateralized by the building improvements on the Ten Pizza Hut Properties. The Master Mortgage Note bears interest at a rate of 10.75% per annum and principal and interest are due in equal monthly installments over 20 years starting July 1, 1996. The Master Mortgage Note equals approximately 85 percent of the appraised value of the related buildings. Management believes that, due to the fact that the Company owns the underlying land relating to the Ten Pizza Hut Properties and due to other underwriting criteria, the Company has sufficient collateral for the Master Mortgage Note. As of July 16, 1996, the Company had initial commitments to acquire 14 properties, including two properties which consist of building only and 12 properties which consist of land and building. The acquisition of each of these properties is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions, including, but not limited to, a satisfactory environmental survey and property appraisal. There can be no assurance that any or all of the conditions will be satisfied or, if satisfied, that one or more of these properties will be acquired by the Company. If acquired, the leases of all 14 of these properties are expected to be entered into on substantially the same terms described in the Prospectus in the section entitled "Business - Description of Property Leases," except as described below. In connection with the Golden Corral and the Wendy's properties in Brooklyn, Ohio, and San Diego, California, respectively, the Company anticipates owning only the buildings and not the underlying land. However, the Company anticipates entering into tri-party agreements with the lessees and the landlords of the land in order to provide the Company with certain rights with respect to the land on which the buildings are located. Set forth below are summarized terms expected to apply to the leases for each of the properties. More detailed information relating to a property and its related lease will be provided at such time, if any, as the property is acquired. · Enlarge/Download Table Lease Term and Property Renewal Options Minimum Annual Rent Percentage Rent Option to Purchase Golden Corral (2) 14 years;

The development agreements for the Properties which are to be constructed provide that construction must be completed no later than the dates set forth below. The maximum cost to the Company, (including the purchase price of the land (if applicable), development costs (if applicable), and closing and acquisition costs) is not expected to, but may, exceed the amounts set forth below: Property Estimated Maximum Cost Estimated Final Completion Date Hamden Property $1,200,972 September 21, 1996 Knoxville Property 830,966 September 5, 1996 Port Richey Property 1,675,000 October 5, 1996 Hillsboro Property 1,119,248 December 2, 1996 Camarillo Property 1,264,789 October 3, 1996 Sevierville Property 517,571 October 3, 1996 Ellisville Property 1,026,746 December 15, 1996 Golden Valley Property 1,128,899 December 16, 1996 Humble #1 Property 949,413 December 16, 1996 Corvallis Property 952,684 January 5, 1997 Houston #1 Property 926,397 January 5, 1997 Rockwall Property 795,087 January 11, 1997 (4) The "Total Cost" is equal to the sum of (i) the purchase price of the Property, (ii) closing costs, and (iii) actual development costs incurred under the development agreement, and in the case of the Hamden, Port Richey and Hillsboro Properties, (iv) "construction financing costs" during the development period. (5) If the lessee exercises its purchase option after the third lease year and before the eleventh lease year, the purchase price to be paid by the lessee shall be equal to the net present value of the monthly lease rental payments for the remainder of the lease term (including previous and scheduled rent increases) discounted at the lesser of (i) 11% per annum, or (ii) the then-current annual yield on 7-year Treasury securities plus 4.5%, plus the full amount of any late fees, default interest, enforcement costs or other sums otherwise due or payable by the lessee under the lease. If the lessee exercises its option after the tenth lease year, the purchase price to be paid by the lessee shall be equal to the net present value of the monthly lease payments for the remainder of the lease term (based, however, for purposes hereof on the initial monthly installment amount of annual rental and not including previous and scheduled increases) discounted at 11% per annum, plus the full amount of any late fees, default interest, enforcement costs or other sums otherwise due or payable by the lessee under the lease. (6) Percentage rent shall be calculated on a calendar year basis (January 1 to December 31). (7) If the Property is not producing percentage rent and the lessee determines, in good faith, that the restaurant has become uneconomic and unsuitable the lessee may elect, during the first through seventh and again during the tenth through 15th lease years: (i) to purchase the Property for a purchase price, net of closing costs, equal to the greater of (a) the then fair-market value of the Property as determined by an independent appraisal, or (b) 100% of the Company's o r iginal cost for the Property if the Company is successful in effectuating the lessee's purchase through a tax-free ``like-kind'' exchange, or 120% of the Company's original cost for the Property if a tax-free, ``like-kind'' exchange is not effectuated; or (ii) to sublet the Property as described in the section of the Prospectus entitled ``Description of Property Leases - Assignment and Sublease;'' or (iii) to substitute the Property for another Golden Corral restaurant property on terms similar to those described in the section of the Prospectus entitled ``Description of Property Leases - Substitution of Properties.'' (8) The lease relating to this Property is a land lease only. The Company entered into a Mortgage Loan evidenced by a Master Mortgage Note for $3,888,000 collateralized by building improvements. The Master Mortgage Note bears interest at a rate of 10.75% per annum and principal and interest will be collected in equal monthly installments over 20 years beginning in July 1996. (9) If the lessee exercises one or both of its renewal options, minimum annual rent will increase by 12% after the expiration of the original lease term and after five years thereafter during any subsequent lease term. (10) The Company entered into a Master Lease Agreement for the Beaver, Bluefield, Huntington, Hurricane, Milton, Ronceverte, Beckley, Belle, Cross Lanes and Marietta Properties. (11) The Company and the lessee entered into remediation and indemnity agreements on May 17, 1996, with the seller of the land and an adjacent site owner/operator (the "Indemnitors") due to Phase I and Phase II environmental testing results indicating that there were action levels of environmental contamination on the Bluefield, Hurricane and Marrieta Properties relating to underground gasoline storage tanks from one property adjacent to the Hurricane Property and past use of the other two P r operties. Under the remediation and indemnity agreements, the Indemnitors have agreed to notify all applicable federal, state, or local government agencies or authorities of the environmental contamination, to undertake all remediation work on these sites at no expense to the Company or lessee, and to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, the lessee and investors from losses arising out of or related to any claim, action, proceeding, lawsuit, notice of violation or demand by any (i) governmental authority in connection with the presence of any environmental contamination, (ii) failure of the Indemnitors to notify any applicable governmental authorities, (iii) remediation work, and (iv) claim, action, proceeding, lawsuit, or demand by third parties who are not the successors in interest of the indemnified parties and are not affiliated with the indemnified parties. If as to any of the affected sites, the remediation work is not satisfactorily completed within two years after the effective date, such that the Company is willing, in its discretion, to remain the owner of a particular affected site, the Company may "put" the particular affected site back to the seller, and the seller will purchase the Company's ownership interest in the affected site. (12) The "Building Overage Multiplier" is calculated as follows: B u ilding Overage Multiplier = (purchase price of the building)/[purchase price of the building + (annual rent due under the land lease/land lease cap rate)] (13) In the event that the aggregate amount of percentage rent paid by the lessee to the Company over the term of the lease shall equal or exceed 15% of the purchase price paid by the Company, then the option purchase price shall equal one dollar. In the event that the aggregate percentage rent paid shall be less than 15% of the purchase price paid by the Company, then the option purchase price shall equal the difference of 15% of the purchase price, less the aggregate percentage rent paid to the landlord by the lessee under the lease. (14) The lessee of the Knoxville, Camarillo, and Sevierville Properties is the same unaffiliated lessee. (15) The lessee of the Ellisville and Golden Valley Properties is the same unaffiliated lessee. (16) The lessee of the Humble #1 and Houston #1 Properties is the same unaffiliated lessee. BORROWING AND SECURED EQUIPMENT LEASES Between April 10, 1996 and July 16, 1996, the Company obtained three advances totaling $1,642,788 under its $15,000,000 Loan. The advances are fully amortizing term loans repayable over six years and bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 215 basis points above the Reserve Adjusted LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Loan). The proceeds of the advances were used to acquire Equipment for three restaurant properties at a cost of approximately $1,609,000 and to pay Secured Equipment Lease Servicing Fees of $32,175 to the Advisor. In connection with the acquisition of the Equipment for one restaurant property, the Company, as lessor, entered into a Secured Equipment Lease with an unaffiliated lessee that leases the restaurant property from an Affiliate of the Advisor.

Such fees will be included in the purchase price of Properties purchased from developers that are Affiliates of the Company. See "Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties." Development/construction management fees, which are based on the number of Properties purchased from developers that are Affiliates of the Company, the cost of construction or renovation of such Properties and the percentage amount of each development/construction management fee, are not determinable at this time. As of March 31, 1996, no such fees had been incurred by the Company. CONSTRUCTION FINANCING FEES TO AFFILIATES OF THE COMPANY.

Such fees will be included in the purchase price of Properties purchased from developers that receive such loans. See "Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties." Construction loan fees, which are based on the number of Properties for which Affiliates of the Company provide construction financing, the amount and duration of such loans and the amount of each construction financing fee, are not determinable at this time. As of March 31, 1996, no such fees had been incurred by the Company.

Upon Listing, if the Advisor has accrued but not been paid such real estate disposition fee, then for purposes of d e t e rmining whether the subordination conditions have been satisfied, stockholders will be deemed to have received a Distribution in an amount equal to the product of the total number of Shares outstanding and the average closing prices of the Shares over a period, beginning 180 days after Listing, of 30 days during which the Shares are traded. See "The Advisor and The Advisory Agreement -The Advisory Agreement." As of March 31, 1996, no such fees had been incurred by the Company. SUBORDINATED SHARE OF NET SALES PROCEEDS. A subordinated share of Net Sales Proceeds will be paid to the Advisor upon the Sale of one or more Properties or Secured Equipment Leases in an amount equal to 10% of Net Sales Proceeds. This amount will be subordinated and paid only after the stockholders have received Distributions equal to the sum of 100% of the stockholders' aggregate Invested Capital, plus the Stockholders' 8% Return.

SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The following table sets forth certain financial information for CNL American Properties Fund, Inc., and should be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and the Financial Statements included in Exhibit B to this Prospectus Supplement and Exhibit B to the Prospectus. May 2, 1994 (Date Quarter Ended of Inception) March 31, Year Ended through 1996 December 31, December 31, (Unaudited) 1995 1994 Revenues $1,059,879 $ 659,131 $ - Net earnings 744,588 368,779 - Cash distributions declared (1) 768,133 638,618 - Funds from operations (2) 840,123 470,592 - Earnings per Share 0.16 0.19 - Cash distributions declared per Share 0.17 0.34 - Funds from operations per Share(2) 0.18 0.25 - Weighted average number of Shares outstanding (3) 4,649,040 1,898,350 - March 31, 1996 December 31, December 31, (Unaudited) 1995 1994 Total assets $48,909,495 $33,603,084 $929,585 Long-term obligations 53,500 - - Total equity 46,745,744 31,980,648 200,000 (1) Approximately ten percent and 40 percent of cash distributions ($0.02 and $0.14 per Share) for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995, respectively, represents a return o f capital in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Cash distributions treated as a return of capital on a GAAP basis represent the amount of cash distributions in excess of accumulated net earnings on a GAAP basis. The Company has not treated such amount as a return of capital for purposes of calculating the stockholders' Invested Capital and the Stockholders' 8% Return, as described in the Prospectus. (2) Funds from operations are net earnings, excluding depreciation of $94,530 and $100,318 and amortization expense of joint venture capitalized costs of $1,005 and $1,495 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995, respectively. Funds from operations are generally considered by industry analysts to be the most appropriate measure of performance and do not necessarily represent cash provided by operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to meed cash needs. (3) The weighted average number of Shares outstanding is based upon the period the Company was operational. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS INTRODUCTION The Company is a Maryland corporation that was organized on May 2, 1994, to acquire Properties, directly or indirectly through Joint Venture or co- tenancy arrangements, to be leased on a long-term, "triple-net" basis to operators of certain Restaurant Chains. In addition, the Company may provide Mortgage Loans for the purchase of buildings, generally by tenants that lease the underlying land from the Company. To a lesser extent, the Company intends to offer Secured Equipment Leases to operators of Restaurant Chains. Secured Equipment Leases will be funded from the proceeds of the Loan, in an amount up to 10% of Gross Proceeds from the offering, which the Company has obtained. As of March 31, 1996, the Company owned 43 Properties (including one Property through a joint venture arrangement), four of which were under construction at March 31, 1996. Of the 43 Properties, three consisted of building only, 20 consisted of land only and 20 consisted of land and building. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES In April 1995, the Company commenced an offering of its Shares of common stock. As of March 31, 1996, the Company had received subscription proceeds of $55,041,881 (5,504,188 shares) from the offering, including $128,151 (12,815 shares) through the Reinvestment Plan. As of March 31, 1996, net proceeds to the Company from its offering of S h a res and capital contributions from the Advisor after deduction of Selling Commissions, marketing support and due diligence expense reimbursement fees and Organizational and Offering Expenses, totalled $47,039,128. As of March 31, 1996, approximately $42,800,000 had been used to invest, or committed for investment, in 43 Properties (four of which were undeveloped land on which a restaurant was being constructed), including one Property owned by a Joint Venture, three Properties consisting of building only and 20 Properties consisting of land only, in providing mortgage financing of $8,475,000 to the tenant of the 20 Properties consisting of land only and to pay Acquisition Fees to the Advisor totalling $2,476,885 and certain Acquisition Expenses. The Company acquired ten of the 43 Properties from Affiliates for purchase prices t o t alling approximately $7,442,000. The Affiliates had purchased and temporarily held title to these Properties in order to facilitate the acquisition of the Properties by the Company. Each Property was acquired at a cost no greater than the lesser of the cost of the Property to the Affiliate (including carrying costs) or the Property's appraised value. The Company expects to use Net Offering Proceeds from the sale of Shares to purchase additional Properties, to fund construction costs relating to the Properties under construction and to make Mortgage Loans. The Company expects to use the proceeds of the Loan to fund the Secured Equipment Lease program, as described above. The number of Properties to be acquired and Mortgage Loans to be entered into will depend upon the amount of Net Offering Proceeds available to the Company. The Company has entered into various development agreements with tenants which provide terms and specifications for the construction of buildings the tenants have agreed to lease once construction is completed. The agreements provide a maximum amount of development costs (including the purchase price of the land and closing costs) to be paid by the Company. The aggregate maximum development costs the Company had agreed to pay as of March 31, 1996, was approximately $5,817,200, of which approximately $2,613,400 in land and other costs had been incurred as of March 31, 1996. The buildings under construction as of March 31, 1996, are expected to be operational by August 1996. In connection with the purchase of each Property, the Company, as lessor, entered into a long-term lease agreement. During the period April 1, 1996 through July 16, 1996, the Company acquired 29 additional Properties (two Properties consisting of land and building, 14 Properties consisting of undeveloped land on which restaurants are being constructed and 13 Properties consisting of land only) for cash at a total cost of approximately $9,606,000, excluding development and closing costs. The development costs (including the purchase of the land and closing costs) to be paid by the Company relating to the 14 Properties under construction are estimated to be approximately $14,874,000. The buildings under construction are expected to be operational by January 1997. With regard to the 13 Properties consisting of land only, the Company is leasing three of the parcels together with 20 other land parcels to a single lessee pursuant to a master lease agreement. The remaining ten parcels are also leased to a single lessee pursuant to a master lease agreement. The lessees own the buildings located on the 33 Properties. In addition, during the period April 1, 1996 through July 16, 1996, the Company entered into a Mortgage Loan in the principal sum of $3,888,000, collateralized by a mortgage on the buildings relating to ten Pizza Hut Properties. The Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate of 10.75% per annum and is being collected in 240 equal monthly installments of $39,472. The Company presently is negotiating to acquire additional Properties or invest in additional Mortgage Loans, but as of July 16, 1996, had not acquired any such Properties or invested in any such Mortgage Loans. As of July 16, 1996, the Company had received subscription proceeds of $80,598,079 (8,059,808 Shares) from 4,663 stockholders, including $243,167 (24,317 Shares) issued pursuant to the Reinvestment Plan. As of July 16, 1996, the Company had invested, or committed for investment, approximately $66,000,000 of such proceeds in 72 Properties, in providing mortgage financing to the tenants of the 33 Properties consisting of land only through two Mortgage Loans, and to pay Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses, leaving approximately $4,200,000 in Net Offering Proceeds available for investment in Properties and Mortgage Loans. As of July 16, 1996, the Company had incurred $3,626,914 in Acquisition Fees due to the Advisor. On March 5, 1996, the Company entered into a line of credit and security agreement (the "Loan") with a bank to be used by the Company to offer Secured Equipment Leases. The Loan provides that the Company will be able to receive advances of up to $15,000,000 until March 4, 1998. Generally, advances under the Loan will be fully amortizing term loans repayable in terms equal to the duration of the Secured Equipment Leases, but in no event greater than 72 months. In addition, advances for short-term needs (to acquire equipment to be leased under Secured Equipment Leases) may be requested in an aggregate amount which does not exceed the Revolving Sublimit (defined in the Loan as $1,000,000) and such advances may be repaid and readvanced; provided, however, that advances made pursuant to the Revolving Sublimit shall be converted to term loans the earlier of (i) the end of each 60 day period following the closing date (defined in the Loan as March 5, 1996), or (ii) when the aggregate amount outstanding equals or exceeds $1,000,000. Interest on advances made pursuant to the Revolving Sublimit shall be paid monthly in arrears. In addition, principal amounts under advances pursuant to the Revolving Sublimit, if not sooner paid or converted into term loans, shall be paid, together with any unpaid interest relating to such advances, to the bank on March 5, 1998. Generally, all advances under the Loan will bear interest at either (i) a rate per annum equal to 215 basis points above the Reserve Adjusted LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Loan) or (ii) a rate per annum equal to the bank's prime rate, whichever the Company selects at the time advances are made. As a condition of obtaining the Loan, the Company agreed to grant to the bank a first security interest in the Secured Equipment Leases. In connection with the Loan, the Company incurred a commitment fee, legal fees and closing costs of $53,500 relating to the Loan. As of March 31, 1996, $53,500 had been advanced under the Loan to fund the commitment fee, legal fees and closing costs related to the Loan. The Company intends to limit advances under the Loan to 10% of Gross Proceeds of the offering. Between April 1, 1996 and July 16, 1996, the Company obtained three advances totaling $1,642,788 under its $15,000,000 Loan. The advances are fully amortizing term loans repayable over six years and bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 215 basis points above the Reserve Adjusted LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Loan). The proceeds of the advances were used to acquire Equipment for three restaurant properties at a cost of approximately $1,609,000 and to pay Secured Equipment Lease Servicing Fees of $32,175 to the Advisor. In connection with the acquisition of the Equipment for one restaurant property, the Company, as lessor, entered into a Secured Equipment Lease with an unaffiliated lessee that leases the restaurant property from an Affiliate of the Advisor. Properties are and will be leased on a triple-net basis, meaning that tenants are generally required to pay all repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and utilities. Rental payments under the leases are expected to exceed the Company's operating expenses. For these reasons, no short-term or long-term liquidity problems currently are anticipated by management. Until Properties are acquired, or Mortgage Loans are entered into, by the Company, all offering proceeds are held in short-term, highly liquid investments which management believes to have appropriate safety of principal. This investment strategy provides high liquidity in order to facilitate the Company's use of these funds to acquire Properties at such time as Properties suitable for acquisition are located or to fund Mortgage Loans. At March 31, 1996, the Company had $8,775,306 invested in such short-term investments as compared to $11,508,445 at December 31, 1995. The decrease in the amount invested in short- term investments reflects acquisition and lending activity during the quarter ended March 31, 1996. These funds will be used primarily to purchase and develop or renovate Properties (directly or indirectly through joint venture arrangements), to make Mortgage Loans, to pay organization and offering and acquisition costs, to pay Distributions to stockholders, to meet Company expenses and, in management's discretion, to create cash reserves. During the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, Affiliates of the Company incurred on behalf of the Company $264,484 and $69,035, respectively, for certain Organizational and Offering Expenses. In addition, during the quarter ended March 31, 1996, Affiliates of the Company incurred on behalf of the Company $51,860 for certain Acquisition Expenses and $69,442 for certain Operating Expenses. As of March 31, 1996, the Company owed the Advisor $150,140 for such amounts and accounting and administrative expenses. In addition, as of March 31, 1996, the Company owed the Advisor $143,485 and $20,515 for Acquisition Fees and Asset Management Fees, respectively. As of April 30, 1996, the Company had reimbursed all such amounts. The Advisor has agreed to pay or reimburse to the Company all Organizational and Offering Expenses in excess of three percent of gross offering proceeds. Other liabilities to unrelated parties increased to $1,313,711 at March 31, 1996, from $1,173,776 at December 31, 1995, primarily as a result of the accrual of construction costs incurred and unpaid as of March 31, 1996. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company generated cash from operations (which includes cash received from tenants and interest and other income received, less cash paid for operating expenses) of $710,678. Based on current and anticipated future cash from operations the Company declared Distributions to the stockholders of $768,133 during the quarter ended March 31, 1996. No Distributions were paid or declared for the quarter ended March 31, 1995. On April 1, 1996, May 1, 1996 and June 1, 1996, the Company declared Distributions to its stockholders totalling $323,748, $368,153 and $408,475, respectively, payable in June 1996. In addition, on July 1, 1996, the Company declared distributions to its stockholders totalling $458,646 payable in September 1996. For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, approximately 90 percent of the Distributions received by stockholders were considered to be ordinary income and 10 percent were considered a return of capital for federal income tax purposes. However, no amounts distributed or to be distributed to the stockholders as of April 30, 1996, are required to be or have been treated by the Company as a return of capital for purposes of calculating the stockholders' return on their Invested Capital. Management believes that the Properties are adequately covered by insurance. During 1995, the Advisor obtained contingent liability and property coverage for the Company. This insurance policy is intended to reduce the Company's exposure in the unlikely event a tenant's insurance policy lapses or is insufficient to cover a claim relating to the Property. The Company's investment strategy of acquiring Properties for cash and leasing them under triple-net leases to operators who meet specified financial standards is expected to minimize the Company's Operating Expenses. Accordingly, management believes that any anticipated decrease in the Company's liquidity in 1996, due to its investment of available Net Offering Proceeds in Properties and Mortgage Loans, will not have an adverse effect on the Company's operations. During the operational stage, management believes that the leases will generate cash flow in excess of Operating Expenses. Since the leases are expected generally to have an initial term of 15 to 20 years, with two or more five-year renewal options, and provide for specified percentage rent in addition to the annual base rent and, in certain cases, increases in the base rent or the percentage rent at specified times during the terms of the leases, it is anticipated that rental income will increase over time. Due to anticipated low Operating Expenses, rental income expected to be obtained from Properties after they are acquired, and the fact that as of April 30, 1996, no significant amounts had been borrowed under the Loan for Secured Equipment Leases and that the Company had not entered into any Secured Equipment Leases, management does not believe that working capital reserves will be necessary at this time. Management has the right to cause the Company to maintain reserves if, in their discretion, they determine such reserves are required to meet the Company's working capital needs. Management expects that the cash generated from operations will be adequate to pay Operating Expenses. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS No significant operations commenced until the Company received the minimum offering proceeds of $1,500,000 on June 1, 1995. As of March 31, 1996, the Company and its consolidated joint venture had purchased 43 Properties (including one which is owned through a Joint Venture), including three Properties consisting of building only, 20 Properties consisting of land only, and 20 properties consisting of land and building, and had entered into lease agreements relating to these Properties. The leases provide for minimum base annual rental payments (payable in monthly installments) ranging from approximately $89,700 to $413,700. In addition, the leases generally provide for percentage rent based on sales in excess of a specified amount. The majority of the leases also provide that, commencing in generally the sixth lease year, the annual base rent required under the terms of the leases will increase. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company and its consolidated joint venture, CNL/Corral South Joint Venture, earned $799,081 in rental income from operating leases and earned income from the direct financing lease from 41 Properties (excluding two of the Properties under construction as of March 31, 1996). Because the Company did not commence significant operations until it received the minimum offering proceeds on June 1, 1995, and has not yet acquired all of its Properties, revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, represent only a portion of revenues which the Company is expected to earn during a full quarter in which the Company's Properties are operational. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, five lessees of the Company, Golden Corral Corporation, Corral South Store I, Inc., Castle Hill Holdings V, LLC, Foodmaker, Inc. and Northstar Restaurants, Inc., each contributed more than ten percent of the Company's total rental income. Golden Corral Corporation was the lessee under leases relating to six restaurants, Corral South Store I, Inc. was the lessee under a lease relating to one restaurant, Castle Hill Holdings V, LLC was the lessee under leases relating to 20 restaurants, Foodmaker, Inc. was the lessee under leases relating to two restaurants, and Northstar Restaurants, Inc. was the lessee under leases relating to three restaurants. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company also earned $184,949 in interest income from a mortgage note receivable under which Castle Hill Holdings V, LLC is the borrower. In addition, four Restaurant Chains, Golden Corral Family Steakhouse, Pizza Hut, Jack in the Box and Boston Market, each accounted for more than ten percent of the Company's total rental income during the quarter ended March 31, 1996. Because the Company has not completed its acquisition of Properties as yet, it is not possible to determine which lessees or Restaurant Chains will contribute more than ten percent of the Company's rental income during the remainder of 1996 and subsequent years. In the event that certain lessees, borrowers or Restaurant Chains contribute more than ten percent of the Company's total income in the current and future years, any failure of such lessees, borrowers or Restaurants Chains could materially affect the Company's income. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company entered into a Mortgage Loan in the principal sum of $8,475,000, collateralized by a mortgage on the buildings relating to 20 Pizza Hut Properties and three additional Pizza Hut buildings. The Mortgage Loan bears interest at a rate of 10.75% per annum and is being collected in 240 equal monthly installments of $86,041. In connection therewith, the Company earned $184,949 in interest income relating to such Mortgage Loan during the quarter ended March 31, 1996. In addition, the Company also earned $74,600 in interest income from investments in money market accounts or other short-term, highly liquid investments. Interest income is expected to increase as the Company invests subscription proceeds in highly liquid investments pending the acquisition of Properties. However, as Net Offering Proceeds are invested in Properties and used to make mortgage loans, interest income from investments in money market accounts or other short-term, highly liquid investments is expected to decrease. Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense, were $300,539 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996. Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense, also represent only a portion of operating expenses which the Company is expected to incur during a full quarter in which the Company's Properties are operational. The dollar amount of operating expenses is expected to increase as the Company acquires additional Properties. THE ADVISOR AND THE ADVISORY AGREEMENT THE ADVISORY AGREEMENT The Advisory Agreement was renewed for a period of one year with the unanimous approval of the Board of Directors, including the Independent Directors, and shall expire on April 19, 1997, subject to successive one-year renewals upon mutual consent of the parties.

The Company accounts for its 84.69% interest in the accounts of CNL/Corral South Joint Venture under the full consolidation method. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. (c) In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, leases in which the present value of future minimum lease payments equals or exceeds 90 percent of the value of the related properties are treated as direct financing leases rather than as land and buildings. The categorization of the leases has no effect on rental revenues received. The building portions of eight of the properties have been classified as direct financing leases. Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Earnings: (1) Represents rental income from operating leases and earned income from direct financing leases for the seven of the 72 properties acquired during the period June 2, 1995 (the date the Company began operations) through July 16, 1996 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) June 2, 1995 (the date the Company became operational), 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 seven Pro Forma P r operties 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 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 Statements of Earnings. Date Pro Forma Date Placed Property Became in Service Operational as By the Company Rental Property Jack in the Box in Los Angeles, CA June 1995 June 1995 Kenny Rogers Roasters in Grand Rapids, MI August 1995 June 1995 Kenny Rogers Roasters in Franklin, TN August 1995 June 1995 Denny's in Pasadena, TX September 1995 August 1995 Denny's in Shawnee, OK September 1995 August 1995 Denny's in Grand Rapids, MI March 1996 September 1995 Denny's in McKinney, TX June 1996 December 1995 Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Earnings - Continued: In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, lease revenue from leases accounted for under the operating method is recognized over the terms of the leases. 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. 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 1995 that the previous owners held the properties, no pro forma adjustment was made for percentage rental income for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995. (2) See Note (c) 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) June 2, 1995 (the date the Company became operational), 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 quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995. (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) June 2, 1995 (the date the Company became operational), 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 $6,219,000 and $5,241,000 for the Pro Forma Properties for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995, 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 five 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. Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Earnings - Continued: (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 quarter ended March 31, 1996, and during the period the Company was operational, June 2, 1995 (the date following when the Company received the minimum offering proceeds and funds were released from escrow) through December 31, 1995. As a result of three of the six Pro Forma Properties being treated in the Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the year ended December 31, 1995, as placed in service on June 2, 1995 (the date the Company became operational), the Company assumed approximately 347,100 shares of common stock were sold, and the net offering proceeds were available for investment, on June 2, 1996. Due to the fact that approximately 184,800 of these shares of common stock were actually sold subsequently, during the period June 3, 1995 through June 20, 1995, the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the pro forma period was adjusted. Pro forma earnings per share were calculated based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, as adjusted, during the period the Company was operational, June 2, 1995 through December 31, 1995.

CNL AMERICAN PROPERTIES FUND, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS QUARTERS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995 1. Organization and Nature of Business: CNL American Properties Fund, Inc. (the "Company") was organized in Maryland on May 2, 1994, for the purpose of acquiring, directly or indirectly through joint venture or co-tenancy arrangements, restaurant properties (the "Properties") to be leased on a long-term, triple-net basis to operators of certain national and regional fast-food, family- style and casual dining restaurant chains. To a lesser extent, the Company intends to offer furniture, fixtures and equipment financing ("Secured Equipment Leases") to operators of restaurant chains. Secured Equipment Leases will be funded from the proceeds of a loan of up to ten percent of the gross offering proceeds. 2. Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996. Amounts as of December 31, 1995, included in the financial statements, have been derived from audited financial statements as of that date. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. The Company was a development stage enterprise from May 2, 1994 through June 1, 1995. Since operations had not begun, activities through June 1, 1995, were devoted to organization of the Company. The Company accounts for its 84.69% interest in CNL/Corral South Joint Venture using the consolidation method. Minority interest represents the minority joint venture partner's proportionate share of the equity in the Company's consolidated joint venture. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." The Statement requires that an entity review long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles, to be held and used, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Adoption of this standard had no material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 3. Leases: The Company leases its land and buildings primarily to operators or franchisees of national and regional fast-food, family-style and casual dining restaurants. The leases are accounted for under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, "Accounting for Leases." The leases relating to 42 of the Company's Properties have been classified as operating leases (including the leases relating to four properties under construction as of March 31, 1996) and the lease relating to one Property has been classified as a direct financing lease. 4. Land and Buildings on Operating Leases: Land and buildings on operating leases consisted of the following at: March 31, December 31, 1996 1995 Land $14,872,121 $ 8,890,471 Buildings 12,705,708 10,049,032 ----------- ----------- 27,577,829 18,939,503 Less accumulated depreciation (194,849) (100,318) ----------- ----------- 27,382,980 18,839,185 Construction in progress 930,494 884,541 ----------- ----------- $28,313,474 $19,723,726 =========== =========== Some leases provide for escalating guaranteed minimum rents throughout the lease term. Income from these scheduled rent increases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company recognized $112,905 of such rental income. The following is a schedule of future minimum lease payments to be received on the noncancellable operating leases at March 31, 1996: 1996 $ 1,993,738 1997 2,711,955 1998 2,716,736 1999 2,723,430 2000 2,738,584 Thereafter 38,247,056 ----------- $51,131,499 =========== These amounts do not include minimum lease payments that will become due when Properties under development are completed (See Note 13). 5. Net Investment in Direct Financing Lease: The following lists the components of the net investment in direct financing lease at: March 31, December 31, 1996 1995 Minimum lease payments receivable $ 2,480,522 $ 2,498,881 Estimated residual value - 343,740 Less unearned income (1,120,108) (1,468,739) ----------- ----------- Net investment in direct financing lease $ 1,360,414 $ 1,373,882 =========== =========== The following is a schedule of future minimum lease payments to be received on the direct financing lease at March 31, 1996: 1996 $ 148,848 1997 198,463 1998 198,463 1999 198,463 2000 201,771 Thereafter 1,534,514 ---------- $2,480,522 ========== 6. Mortgage Note Receivable: In January 1996, in connection with the acquisition of land for 20 Pizza Hut restaurants in Ohio and Michigan, the Company accepted a promissory note in the principal sum of $8,475,000, collateralized by a mortgage on the buildings on 20 Pizza Hut Properties and three additional Pizza Hut buildings. The promissory note bears interest at a rate of 10.75% per annum and is being collected in 240 equal monthly installments of $86,041. As of March 31, 1996, $8,540,712 was outstanding relating to this note, including $75,831 in accrued interest. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of the fair value of significant financial instruments. Management believes, based upon the current terms, that the estimated fair value of the Company's mortgage note receivable is $8,540,712, the same as its carrying value. 7. Other Assets: Other assets consisted of the following at: March 31, December 31, 1996 1995 Acquisition fees and miscel- laneous acquisition expenses to be allocated to future properties $1,141,953 $ 806,504 Other 57,963 12,000 ---------- ---------- $1,199,916 $ 818,504 ========== ========== 8. Note Payable: On March 5, 1996, the Company entered into a line of credit and security agreement (the "Loan") with a bank to be used by the Company to offer Secured Equipment Leases. The Loan provides that the Company will be able to receive advances of up to $15,000,000 until March 4, 1998. Generally, advances under the Loan will be fully amortizing term loans repayable in terms equal to the duration of the Secured Equipment Leases, but in no event greater than 72 months. In addition, advances for short-term needs (to acquire equipment to be leased under Secured Equipment Leases) may be requested in an aggregate amount which does not exceed the Revolving Sublimit (defined in the Loan as $1,000,000) and such advances may be repaid and readvanced; provided, however, that advances made pursuant to the Revolving Sublimit shall be converted to term loans the earlier of (i) the end of each 60 day period following the closing date (defined in the Loan as March 5, 1996), or (ii) when the aggregate amount outstanding equals or exceeds $1,000,000. Interest on advances made pursuant to the Revolving Sublimit shall be paid monthly in arrears. In addition, principal amounts under advances pursuant to the Revolving Sublimit, if not sooner paid or converted into term loans, shall be paid, together with any unpaid interest relating to such advances, to the bank on March 5, 1998. Generally, all advances under the Loan will bear interest at either (i) a rate per annum equal to 215 basis points above the Reserve Adjusted LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Loan) or (ii) a rate per annum equal to the bank's prime rate, whichever the Company selects at the time advances are made. As a condition of obtaining the Loan, the Company agreed to grant to the bank a first security interest in the Secured Equipment Leases. In connection with the Loan, the Company incurred a commitment fee, legal fees and closing costs of $53,500 relating to the Loan. As of March 31, 1996, the note payable includes $53,500 which had been advanced under the Loan to fund the commitment fee, legal fees and closing costs related to the Loan, plus accrued interest of $159. The Company intends to limit advances under the Loan to 10% of gross proceeds of the offering. 9. Stock Issuance Costs: The Company has incurred certain expenses of its offering of shares, including commissions, marketing support and due diligence expense reimbursement fees, filing fees, legal, accounting, printing and escrow fees, which have been deducted from the gross proceeds of the offering. Preliminary costs incurred prior to raising capital were advanced by an affiliate of the Company, CNL Fund Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor"). The Advisor has agreed to pay all organizational and offering expenses (excluding commissions and marketing support and due diligence expense reimbursement fees) which exceed three percent of the gross offering proceeds received from the sale of shares of the Company. As of March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the Company had incurred a total of $8,222,753 and $6,423,671, respectively, in organizational and offering costs, including $4,403,350 and $3,076,333, respectively, in commissions and marketing support and due diligence expense reimbursement fees (see Note 11). Of these amounts $8,202,753 and $6,403,671, respectively, has been treated as stock issuance costs and $20,000 has been treated as organization costs. The stock issuance costs have been charged to stockholders' equity subject to the three percent cap described above. 10.

Related Party Transactions: During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company incurred $1,244,079 in selling commissions due to CNL Securities Corp. for services in connection with the offering of shares. A substantial portion of this amount ($1,227,505) was or will be paid as commissions to other broker- dealers. In addition, CNL Securities Corp. is entitled to receive a marketing support and due diligence expense reimbursement fee equal to 0.5% of the total amount raised from the sale of shares, a portion of which may be reallowed to other broker-dealers. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company incurred $82,939 of such fees. The Advisor is entitled to receive acquisition fees for services in identifying the Properties and structuring the terms of the acquisition and leases of the Properties equal to 4.5% of the total amount raised from the sale of shares. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company incurred $746,448 of such fees. The Company and the Advisor have entered into an advisory agreement pursuant to which the Advisor will receive a monthly asset management fee of one-twelfth of 0.60% of the Company's real estate asset value (generally, the total amount invested in the Properties as of the end of the preceding month, exclusive of acquisition fees and acquisition expenses). The asset management fee, which will not exceed fees which are competitive for similar services in the same geographic area, may or may not be taken, in whole or in part as to any year, in the sole discretion of the Advisor. All or any portion of the management fee not taken as to any fiscal year shall be deferred without interest and may be taken in such other fiscal year as the Advisor shall determine. In addition, the advisory agreement provides that the Advisor will receive a monthly mortgage management fee of one-twelfth of .60% of the Company's total principal amount of the mortgage loans as of the end of the preceding month. As of March 31, 1996, the Company incurred $33,289 in asset management fees, $1,394 of which was capitalized as part of the cost of building for Properties under construction and $8,475 in mortgage management fees. The Advisor and its affiliates provide accounting and administrative services to the Company (including accounting and administrative services in connection with the offering of shares) on a day-to-day basis. For the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the expenses incurred for these services were classified as follows: 1996 1995 Deferred offering costs $ - $ 43,410 Stock issuance costs 185,113 - General operating and administrative expenses 74,032 - -------- -------- $259,145 $ 43,410 ======== ======== During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company acquired one Property for approximately $820,625 from an affiliate of the Company. The affiliate had purchased and temporarily held title to the Property in order to facilitate the acquisition of the Property by the Company. The Property was acquired at a cost no greater than the lesser of the cost of the Property to the affiliate (including carrying costs) or the Property's appraised value. The due to related parties consisted of the following at: March 31, December 31, 1996 1995 Due to the Advisor: Expenditures incurred on behalf of the Company and accounting and administrative services $150,140 $108,316 Acquisition fees 143,485 45,118 Asset and mortgage management fees 20,515 9,108 Distributions - 3,332 -------- -------- 314,140 165,874 -------- -------- Due to CNL Securities Corp: Commissions 94,947 75,197 Marketing support and due diligence expense reim- bursement fees 6,331 5,013 -------- -------- 101,278 80,210 -------- -------- Other - 2,500 -------- -------- $415,418 $248,584 ======== ======== 12. Concentration of Credit Risk: The following schedule presents total rental and earned income from individual lessees, or affiliated groups of lessees, each representing more than ten percent of the Company's total rental and earned income for the quarter ended March 31, 1996: Golden Corral Corporation $207,664 Corral South Store I, Inc. 102,779 Castle Hill Holdings V, LLC 97,576 Foodmaker, Inc. 82,633 Northstar Restaurants, Inc. 82,341 During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Company also earned $184,949 in interest income from a mortgage note receivable under which Castle Hill Holdings V, LLC is the borrower. In addition, the following schedule presents total rental and earned income from individual restaurant chains, each representing more than ten percent of the Company's total rental and earned income for the quarter ended March 31, 1996: Golden Corral Family Steakhouse Restaurants $371,290 Pizza Hut 97,576 Jack in the Box 82,633 Boston Market 82,341 Although the Company's Properties are geographically diverse and the Company's lessees operate a variety of restaurant concepts, failure of any one of these restaurant chains or any lessee that contributes more than ten percent of the Company's rental income could significantly impact the results of operations of the Company. However, management believes that the risk of such a default is reduced due to the essential or important nature of these Properties for the on-going operations of the lessee. It is expected that the percentage of total rental and earned income contributed by these lessees and restaurant chains will decrease as additional Properties are acquired and leased in 1996 and subsequent years. 13. Commitments: The Company has entered into various development agreements with tenants which provide terms and specifications for the construction of buildings the tenants have agreed to lease once construction is completed. The agreements provide a maximum amount of development costs (including the purchase price of the land and closing costs) to be paid by the Company. The aggregate maximum development costs the Company has agreed to pay is approximately $5,817,200, of which approximately $2,613,400 in land and other costs had been incurred as of March 31, 1996. The buildings currently under construction are expected to be operational by August 1996. In connection with the purchase of each Property, the Company, as lessor, entered into a long-term lease agreement. 14. Subsequent Events: During the period April 1, 1996 through May 9, 1996, the Company received subscription proceeds for an additional 997,797 shares ($9,977,971) of common stock. On April 1, 1996 and May 1, 1996, the Company declared distributions of $323,748 and $368,153, respectively, or $.0583 per share of common stock, payable in June 1996, to stockholders of record on April 1, 1996 and May 1, 1996, respectively. During the period April 1, 1996 through May 9, 1996, the Company acquired eight Properties (five of which are undeveloped land on which restaurants are being constructed and three of which are land only) for cash at a total cost of approximately $2,755,000, excluding closing and development costs. In connection with the purchase of each Property, the Company, as lessor, entered into a long-term lease agreement. The development costs (including the purchase of the land and closing costs) to be paid by the Company relating to the five properties under construction are estimated to be approximately $6,193,000. The buildings under construction are expected to be operational by October 1996.

CNL AMERICAN PROPERTIES FUND, INC. SHARES OF COMMON STOCK Minimum Purchase 250 Shares ($2,500) 100 Shares ($1,000) for IRAs and Keogh and Pension Plans (Minimum purchase may be higher in certain states) CNL AMERICAN PROPERTIES FUND, INC. (the Company ) is a Maryland corporation which intends to qualify and remain qualified for federal income tax purposes as a real estate investment trust (a REIT ). THE COMPANY MAY SELL UP TO 16,500,000 SHARES FOR A MAXIMUM OF $165,000,000. The Company has been formed primarily to acquire restaurant properties (the Properties ) located across the United States to be leased on a long-term, triple-net basis to creditworthy operators of selected national and regional fast-food, family-style, and casual dining restaurant chains (the Restaurant Chains ). Under the Company's triple- net leases, the tenant will be responsible for property costs associated with ongoing operations, including repairs, maintenance, property taxes, utilities, and insurance. In addition, the leases will be structured to require the tenant to pay (i) base annual rent, with automatic increases in the base rent, and (ii) percentage rent based on certain restaurant sales above a specified level. The Company may provide financing (the Mortgage Loans ) for the purchase of buildings, generally by tenants that lease the underlying land from the Company. To a lesser extent, the Company intends to offer furniture, fixture and equipment financing ( Secured Equipment Leases ) to operators of Restaurant Chains. Secured Equipment Leases will be funded from the proceeds of a loan in an amount up to 10% of Gross Proceeds (the Loan ) which the Company has obtained. The Company is not a mutual fund or other type of investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, and is not subject to regulation thereunder. The Company is not affiliated with the United States Government. THERE ARE SIGNIFICANT RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY (SEE RISK FACTORS ), INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: o Both the number of Properties that the Company will acquire and the diversification of its investments will be reduced to the extent that the total proceeds of the offering are less than $165,000,000. As of April 9, 1996, the total offering proceeds were $57,887,405. o The Company will rely on CNL Fund Advisors, Inc. (the Advisor ) with respect to all investment decisions subject to approval by the Board of Directors in certain circumstances. The experience of the Advisor and Directors of the Company with mortgage financing and equipment leasing is limited. o The Advisor and its Affiliates are or will be engaged in other activities that will result in potential conflicts of interest with the services that the Advisor will provide to the Company. o The Company owned, as of April 9, 1996, 48 Properties of the anticipated total of 140 to 160 Properties, and investors, therefore, will not have the opportunity to evaluate all the Properties that the Company eventually will acquire. o There is currently no public trading market for the Shares, and there is no assurance that one will develop. o If the Shares are not listed on a national securities exchange or over-the- counter market ( Listing ) within ten years of commencement of the offering, as to which there can be no assurance, the Company will commence orderly sale of its assets and the distribution of the proceeds. Listing does not assure liquidity. o Market and economic conditions that the Company cannot control will have an effect (either positive or negative) on the value of the Company's investments and the amount of cash that the Company receives from tenants and lessees. o Prior to meeting certain conditions, the Company may incur debt, including debt to make Distributions to stockholders, but will not encumber Properties. THE COMPANY'S PRIMARY INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES are to preserve, protect, and enhance the Company's assets while (i) making Distributions commencing in the initial year of Company operations; (ii) obtaining fixed income through the receipt of base rent, and increasing the Company's income (and Distributions) and providing protection against inflation through automatic increases in base rent and receipt of percentage rent, and obtaining fixed income through the receipt of payments from Secured Equipment Leases; (iii) qualifying as a REIT for federal income tax purposes; and (iv) providing stockholders of the Company with liquidity of their investment within five to ten years after commencement of the offering, either in whole or in part, through (a) Listing, or (b) the commencement of orderly sales of the Company's assets and distribution of the proceeds thereof (outside the ordinary course of business and consistent with its objective of qualifying as a REIT). There can be no assurance that these investment objectives will be met. This Prospectus describes an investment in Shares of the Company. The Company will use stockholders' funds to purchase the Properties and make Mortgage Loans and will borrow money to fund Secured Equipment Leases. No stockholder may hold more than 9.8% of the total Shares. Of the proceeds from the sale of Shares, approximately 84% (in the event $150,000,000 or more is raised) will be used to acquire Properties and make Mortgage Loans, and approximately 9% will be paid in fees and expenses to Affiliates of the Company for their services; the balance will be used to pay other expenses of the offering. The Company has registered an offering of 16,500,000 Shares, with 1,500,000 of such Shares available only to stockholders purchasing Shares in this initial public offering who receive a copy of this Prospectus and who elect to participate in the Company's reinvestment plan (the Reinvestment Plan ). Any participation in such plan by a person who becomes a stockholder otherwise than by participating in this offering must be made pursuant to a solicitation under a separate prospectus. See Summary of Reinvestment Plan. Prior programs sponsored by Affiliates of the Company and the Advisor are in limited partnership form. See Prior Performance Information.

POTENTIAL STOCKHOLDERS MUST READ AND EVALUATE THE FULL TEXT OF THIS PROSPECTUS AND ALL SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS ATTACHED AS EXHIBITS HERETO IN ORDER TO EVALUATE AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY. THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY THEREFORE IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY REFERENCE TO THE FULL TEXT OF THIS PROSPECTUS AND THE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS. CNL AMERICAN PROPERTIES FUND, INC. CNL American Properties Fund, Inc. (the Company) is a Maryland corporation which intends to qualify and remain qualified for federal income tax purposes as a real estate investment trust (a REIT ). The Company's address is 400 East South Street, Suite 500, Orlando, Florida 32801, telephone (407) 422-1574 or toll free (800) 522-3863. The Company has acquired and intends to continue to acquire restaurant properties (the Properties ) located across the United States. The Properties will be leased to creditworthy operators of selected national and regional restaurant chains, primarily fast-food, family-style, and casual dining chains (the Restaurant Chains ). The Company expects to structure its leases of the Properties to provide for payment of base annual rents with automatic increases and percentage rents based on gross sales. All leases will be on a long-term (generally, 15 to 20 years, plus renewal options for an additional 10 to 20 years), triple-net basis, which means that the tenant will be responsible for repairs, maintenance, property taxes, utilities, and insurance. The Company has provided and intends to continue to provide financing (the Mortgage Loans ) for the purchase of buildings, generally by tenants that lease the underlying land from the Company. The Company expects that the economic effects of the Mortgage Loans will be similar to those of its leases (generally with full repayment in 15 to 20 years). The Company also will offer furniture, fixtures and equipment ( Equipment ) financing to operators of Restaurant Chains pursuant to which the Company will provide, through direct financing leases, the Equipment (collectively, the Secured Equipment Leases ). No offering proceeds will be used for the purpose of funding Secured Equipment Leases. The Company has obtained a $15,000,000 line of credit (the Loan ) to be used by the Company to fund Secured Equipment Leases. The Loan provides that the Company will be able to receive advances under the line of credit until March 4, 1998. Generally, advances under the Loan will be fully amortizing term loans repayable over periods of time equal to the duration of the Secured Equipment Leases, but in no event greater than 72 months. The Company intends to limit advances under the Loan to 10% of Gross Proceeds of the offering. See Business for a description of the types of Restaurant Chains that may be selected by the Advisor, the Property selection and acquisition processes, the nature of the Mortgage Loans and Secured Equipment Leases and a description of the Loan. Under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Company automatically will terminate and dissolve on December 31, 2005 unless the shares of Common Stock of the Company, including the shares offered hereby (the Shares ), are listed on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter market ( Listing ), in which event the Company automatically will become a perpetual life entity. If Listing does not occur within ten years after commencement of the offering, the Company will undertake, outside the ordinary course of business and consistent with its objective of qualifying as a REIT, the orderly Sale of the Company's assets, the distribution of Net Sales Proceeds of such Sales to stockholders and the limitation of its activities to those related to its orderly liquidation, unless the stockholders owning a majority of the Shares elect to amend the Articles of Incorporation to extend the duration of the Company. See Risk Factors Real Estate and Financing Risks for a complete discussion of risks relating to future disposition of the Company's assets. If Listing occurs (which is not assured), then the Board of Directors may elect to cause the Company to encumber any or all of the Company's Properties in connection with any borrowing. The Board of Directors anticipates that such borrowing, in the aggregate, will not exceed 50% of Real Estate Asset Value, although the maximum amount the Company may borrow is 300% of Net Assets (an amount which the Company anticipates will correspond to approximately 75% of Real Estate Asset Value). In general, Net Assets are the Company's total assets (other than intangibles), calculated at cost, less total liabilities. As a perpetual life entity following Listing, the Company would not be required to dissolve and return capital to stockholders. If Listing occurs, in order to liquidate their investment stockholders would have to sell their Shares in the market on which the Shares are traded. Listing is no assurance of liquidity. See Risk Factors Investment Risks for a discussion of risks associated with the lack of liquidity of the Shares and with borrowing. In addition, following Listing the Company intends to reinvest proceeds from Sales of Properties rather than distribute such proceeds to stockholders. RISK FACTORS The Risk Factors section discusses in detail the more important risks associated with an investment in the Company, including risks associated with an investment in a real estate investment trust such as the Company, risks associated with an investment in real estate such as the Properties, risks associated with the Mortgage Loans, risks associated with Secured Equipment Leases, and tax risks. These risks include: o Risks of reduced diversification in the Company's investments if the Company does not raise $165,000,000 from sales of Shares. o Risks of reliance on CNL Fund Advisors, Inc. (the Advisor ) and the Board of Directors, which together will have responsibility for the management of the Company and its investments, subject to the ability of the stockholders to elect the Directors. o Risks relating to the fact that the services to be performed by the Advisor and its Affiliates for the Company in connection with the offering, the selection and acquisition of the Properties, the making of Mortgage Loans, the administration of the Secured Equipment Lease program and the general operation of the Company will result in conflicts of interest. o Risks related to the fact that, because as of April 9, 1996, the Company owned only 48 Properties of the anticipated total of 140 to 160 Properties, stockholders therefore will not have the opportunity to evaluate all the Properties that the Company eventually will acquire. o Risks that stockholders who must sell their Shares will not be able to sell them quickly because it is not anticipated that there will be a public market for the Shares in the near term, and there can be no assurance that the Listing will occur. o Market risks associated with investments in real estate, which means that the amount of cash the Company will receive from tenants, lessees or borrowers cannot be predicted. o Risks that the Company, prior to meeting certain conditions, may incur debt, including debt to make Distributions, but will not encumber Properties. o Risks of defaults by tenants, lessees or borrowers resulting in decreased income. o Risks relating to the fact that the vote of stockholders owning at least a majority but less than all of the Shares will bind all of the stockholders as to matters such as the election of Directors and amendment of the Company's governing documents. o Risks that restrictions on ownership of more than 9.8% of the shares of the Company's Common Stock (the Common Stock ) by any single stockholder or certain related stockholders may have the effect of inhibiting a change in control of the Company even if such a change is in the interest of a majority of the stockholders. o Risks that the Company may not qualify or remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, which could result in subjecting the Company to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and, in turn, thereby reducing the amount of funds available for paying Distributions to stockholders. ESTIMATED USE OF PROCEEDS The Company is using the proceeds of the sale of the Shares to acquire Properties, to make Mortgage Loans, generally in connection with such acquisitions, and to pay expenses relating to the organization of the Company and the sale of the Shares. Management of the Company and the Advisor have estimated an average purchase price of $800,000 to $900,000 per Property based on their past experience in acquiring similar properties and in light of current market conditions, although prices of Properties may be lower or higher. See Business Property Acquisitions for a description of the Properties the Company has acquired and the Mortgage Loan the Company has made as of April 9, 1996. Assuming CNL Securities Corp. (the Managing Dealer ) exercises its option to increase the offering from 10,000,000 Shares ($100,000,000) to up to 15,000,000 Shares ($150,000,000) and 15,000,000 Shares are sold, the Company will acquire approximately 140 to 160 Properties. In addition, the Company has registered an offering of an additional 1,500,000 Shares ($15,000,000) available only to stockholders who receive a copy of this Prospectus and who elect to participate in the Company's reinvestment plan (the Reinvestment Plan ). See Estimated Use of Proceeds and Business General for a more detailed description of the anticipated use of offering proceeds. Secured Equipment Leases will be funded solely from the proceeds of the Loan and the number of Secured Equipment Leases will not depend on the amount raised in the offering. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST Certain officers and Directors of the Company who are also officers or directors of the Advisor will experience conflicts of interest in their management of the Company. These arise principally from their involvement in other activities that will conflict with those of the Company and include matters related to (i) allocation of properties and management time and services between the Company and various partnerships and other entities, (ii) the timing and terms of the sale of a Property, (iii) negotiation and funding of Mortgage Loans, (iv) administration of the Secured Equipment Lease program, (v) investments with Affiliates of the Advisor, (vi) compensation of the Advisor, (vii) the Company's relationship with the Managing Dealer, which is an Affiliate of the Company and the Advisor, and (viii) the fact that the Company's securities and tax counsel also serves as securities and tax counsel for certain Affiliates of the Company, and that neither the Company nor the stockholders will have separate counsel. The Directors of the Company who are independent of the Advisor (the Independent Directors) are responsible for monitoring the activities of the Advisor and must approve all of the Advisor's actions that involve a potential conflict other than certain such actions specifically permitted by the Articles of Incorporation. The Conflicts of Interest section discusses in more detail the more significant of these potential conflicts of interest, as well as the procedures that have been established to resolve a number of these potential conflicts. MANAGEMENT The Company has retained the Advisor, pursuant to an advisory agreement, to handle the day-to-day operations of the Company, to select the Company's real estate investments, and to administer its Secured Equipment Lease program. The five members of the Board of Directors will oversee the management of the Company. Three of the Directors of the Company are independent of the Advisor and have responsibility for reviewing its performance. The Directors are elected to the Board of Directors annually by the stockholders. All of the officers and directors of the Advisor also are officers or Directors of the Company. The Advisor will have responsibility for (i) selecting the Properties that the Company will acquire, formulating and evaluating the terms of each proposed acquisition, and arranging for the acquisition of the Property by the Company, (ii) identifying potential lessees for the Properties and potential borrowers for the Mortgage Loans, and formulating, evaluating, and negotiating the terms of each lease of a Property and each Mortgage Loan, and (iii) locating and identifying potential lessees and formulating, evaluating, and negotiating the terms of each Secured Equipment Lease. All of the foregoing actions are subject to approval by the Board of Directors. The Advisor also will have the authority, subject to approval by a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, to select Properties for Sale in keeping with the Company's investment objectives and based on an analysis of economic conditions both nationally and in the vicinity of the Property being considered for Sale. The Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that, if Listing does not occur within ten years from the commencement of this offering, the Company will commence orderly Sales of its assets and distribute the proceeds thereof. In that case, the Company will engage only in activities related to its orderly liquidation unless the stockholders elect otherwise. See Management and The Advisor and the Advisory Agreement for a description of the business background of the individuals responsible for the management of the Company and the Advisor, as well as for a description of the services that the Advisor will provide. MANAGEMENT COMPENSATION The Advisor, the Managing Dealer, and other Affiliates of the Advisor will receive compensation for services they will perform for the Company and also will receive expense reimbursements from the Company for expenses they pay on behalf of the Company. See Management Compensation for a description of compensation paid to the Advisor and Affiliates as of December 31, 1995. The following paragraphs summarize the more significant items of compensation. In connection with the formation of the Company and the offering of the Shares, the Managing Dealer will receive Selling Commissions of 7.5% (a maximum of $11,250,000 if 15,000,000 Shares are sold), and a marketing support and due diligence expense reimbursement fee of 0.5% (a maximum of $750,000 if 15,000,000 Shares are sold), of the total amount raised from the sale of Shares, computed at $10.00 per Share sold ( Gross Proceeds ). The Managing Dealer in turn may reallow Selling Commissions of up to 7% on Shares sold, and all or a portion of the 0.5% marketing support and due diligence expense reimbursement fee to certain Soliciting Dealers, who are not Affiliates of the Company. In addition, the Company will incur a Soliciting Dealer Servicing Fee in the amount of .20% of Invested Capital (as defined below) (a maximum of $300,000 if 15,000,000 Shares are sold). The Soliciting Dealer Servicing Fee will be payable on December 31 of each year, commencing on December 31 of the year following the year in which the offering terminates, and generally will be payable to the Managing Dealer, which in turn may reallow all or a portion of such fee to Soliciting Dealers whose clients held Shares on such date. The Company also may pay the Soliciting Dealer Servicing Fee directly to any Soliciting Dealer exempt from registration as a broker-dealer and whose clients held Shares on such date. In general, the stockholders' investment in the Company ( Invested Capital ) is the number of Shares they own, multiplied by $10.00 per Share, reduced by the portion of all prior Distributions received by stockholders from the Sale of one or more Properties and by any amounts paid by the Company to repurchase Shares pursuant to the redemption plan. For identifying the Properties and structuring the terms of the acquisition and leases of the Properties, the Advisor will receive Acquisition Fees equal to 4.5% of Gross Proceeds (a maximum of $6,750,000 if 15,000,000 Shares are sold) from the sale of Shares. In connection with the acquisition of Properties that have been constructed or renovated by Affiliates, subject in each case to the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors including a majority of the Independent Directors, the Company will incur Development/Construction Management Fees of generally 5% to 10% of the cost of constructing or renovating a Property, payable to Affiliates of the Company as Acquisition Fees. Such fees will be included in the purchase price of Properties purchased from developers that are Affiliates of the Company. See Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties. Development/Construction Management Fees, which are based on the number of Properties purchased from developers that are Affiliates of the Company, the cost of construction or renovation of such Properties, and the percentage amount of each development/construction management fee, are not determinable at this time. In connection with the acquisition of Properties from affiliated or unaffiliated developers, subject in each case to the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors including a majority of the Independent Directors, to whom Affiliates of the Company have provided construction financing, the Company will incur Construction Financing Fees, payable to Affiliates of the Company as Acquisition Fees. Such fees will be in an amount equal to generally 1% to 2% of the total amount of each loan plus the difference between the Affiliate-lender's cost of funds and the amount of interest charged to the developer, with such difference determined by applying an annual percentage rate of generally 1.5% to 3% throughout the duration of the loan to the outstanding amount of the loan. Such fees will be included in the purchase price of Properties purchased from developers that receive such loans. See Business - Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties. Construction Financing Fees, which are based on the number of Properties for which Affiliates of the Company provide construction financing, the amount and duration of such loans, and the amount of each construction financing fee, are not determinable at this time. The total of all Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses shall be reasonable and shall not exceed an amount equal to 6% of the Real Estate Asset Value of a Property, or in the case of a Mortgage Loan, 6% of the funds advanced, unless a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, not otherwise interested in the transaction approves fees in excess of these limits subject to a determination that the transaction is commercially competitive, fair and reasonable to the Company. For managing the Properties, the Advisor will be entitled to receive a monthly Asset Management Fee of one-twelfth of .60% of the Company's Real Estate Asset Value (generally, the total amount invested in the Properties, exclusive of Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses) as of the end of the preceding month. For managing the Mortgage Loans, the Advisor will be entitled to receive a monthly Mortgage Management Fee of one-twelfth of .60% of the total principal amount of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the preceding month. For negotiating Secured Equipment Leases and supervising the Secured Equipment Lease program, the Advisor will be entitled to receive from the Company a one-time Secured Equipment Lease Servicing Fee of 2% of the purchase price of the Equipment that is the subject of a Secured Equipment Lease. Prior to Listing, the Advisor may receive a real estate disposition fee of 3% of the gross sales price of one or more Properties for providing substantial services in connection with the Sale, which will be deferred and subordinated until the stockholders have received Distributions equal to the sum of 100% of the stockholders' aggregate Invested Capital plus an aggregate, annual, cumulative, noncompounded 8% return on their Invested Capital, excluding Distributions attributable to proceeds of the Sale of a Property (the Stockholders' 8% Return ). Upon Listing, if the Advisor has accrued but not been paid such real estate disposition fee, then for purposes of determining whether the subordination conditions have been satisfied, stockholders will be deemed to have received a Distribution in an amount equal to the product of the total number of Shares outstanding and the average closing prices of the Shares over a period, beginning 180 days after Listing, of 30 days during which the Shares are traded. See The Advisor and The Advisory Agreement The Advisory Agreement. A subordinated share of Net Sales Proceeds will be paid to the Advisor upon the Sale of one or more Properties or Secured Equipment Leases in an amount equal to 10% of Net Sales Proceeds. This amount will be subordinated and paid only after the stockholders have received Distributions equal to the sum of 100% of the stockholders' aggregate Invested Capital, plus the Stockholders' 8% Return. Payment of certain fees is subject to conditions and restrictions or to change under certain specified circumstances. The Advisor and its Affiliates also may receive reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses that they incur on behalf of the Company, subject to certain expense limitations, and a subordinated incentive fee if Listing occurs. SUMMARY OF REINVESTMENT PLAN The Company has established the Reinvestment Plan pursuant to which stockholders may elect to have their cash Distributions from the Company automatically reinvested in Shares. See Summary of Reinvestment Plan, Federal Income Tax Considerations Taxation of Stockholders, and the form of Reinvestment Plan accompanying this Prospectus as Exhibit A for more specific information about the Reinvestment Plan. Expenses incurred in connection with the Reinvestment Plan, including Selling Commissions and marketing support and due diligence expense reimbursement fees, will be paid by the Company. A person who becomes a stockholder otherwise than by participating in this offering may purchase Shares through the Reinvestment Plan only after receipt of a separate prospectus relating solely to the Reinvestment Plan. BUSINESS (PURCHASE AND SALE OF PROPERTIES AND OFFERING OF MORTGAGE LOANS AND SECURED EQUIPMENT LEASES) PROPERTIES AND MORTGAGE LOANS. The types of Properties which the Company intends to purchase and lease to third parties, as well as a description of the Properties acquired by the Company as of April 9, 1996, appears in the section entitled Business. It is expected that the Company will invest in Properties of selected national and regional restaurant chains, primarily fast-food, family-style, and casual dining chains, the most rapidly growing segments of the restaurant industry in recent years. Management intends to structure the Company's investments to allow it to participate, to the maximum extent possible, in any sales growth in these industry segments, as reflected in the Properties that it owns. The Properties, which typically are or will be freestanding and will be located across the United States, are or will be leased on a triple-net basis to creditworthy operators of the Restaurant Chains to be selected by the Advisor and approved by the Board of Directors. The Properties may consist of both land and building, the land underlying the building with the building owned by the tenant or a third party, or the building only with the land owned by a third party. The Properties have been or will be purchased for cash and will not be encumbered by any liens. If Listing occurs, however, the Board of Directors may elect to cause the Company to borrow funds in connection with the purchase of additional Properties or for other Company purposes and to encumber any or all of the Company's Properties in connection with any such borrowing. The Board of Directors anticipates that, in the aggregate, borrowing will not exceed 50% of Real Estate Asset Value, although the maximum amount of borrowing, in the absence of a satisfactory showing that a higher level of borrowing is appropriate (as determined by a majority of the Independent Directors), shall not exceed 300% of Net Assets (an amount which the Company anticipates will correspond to approximately 75% of Real Estate Asset Value). Management expects to acquire Properties in part with a view to diversification among Restaurant Chains and the geographic location of the Properties. The Company estimates that it will acquire at least 140 to 160 Properties if the maximum of 15,000,000 Shares is sold, based on an estimated average purchase price of $800,000 to $900,000 per Property. To a lesser extent the Company will offer Mortgage Loans to finance the purchase of buildings by operators of Restaurant Chains. In general, the Company intends to offer Mortgage Loans in circumstances in which the Company owns the land underlying the building to be financed and the borrower under the Mortgage Loan also enters into a long-term ground lease for the underlying land. Management believes that this combined leasing and financing structure provides the benefit of allowing the Company to receive the return of its initial investment plus interest on each financed building, which is generally a depreciating asset, while retaining the ownership of the underlying land, which is generally an appreciating asset. However, none of the prior programs organized by Affiliates of the Company has offered Mortgage Loans and the experience of the Advisor and Directors of the Company with mortgage financing is limited. See Risk Factors - Investment Risks - Risks Associated With Mortgage Loans. As of April 9, 1996, the Company owned 48 Properties (including 21 Properties which consist of land and building, one Property through a joint venture arrangement which consists of land and building, three Properties which consist of a building only, and 23 Properties which consist of land only). In addition, the Company had initial commitments to acquire 12 Properties (including one Property which is land and building, one Property which is building only, and 10 Properties which are land only). The acquisition of each of these Properties is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions. Although the Company believes that there is a reasonable probability that the Company will acquire these Properties, there can be no assurance that these conditions will be satisfied or that the Company will purchase one or more of these Properties. The Company has undertaken to supplement this Prospectus during the offering period to describe the acquisition of Properties at such time as the Company believes that a reasonable probability exists that a Property will be acquired by the Company. Based upon the experience of management of the Company and the Advisor and the proposed acquisition methods, a reasonable probability that the Company will acquire a Property normally will occur as of the date on which (i) a commitment letter is executed by a proposed lessee, (ii) a satisfactory credit underwriting for the proposed lessee has been completed, and (iii) a satisfactory site inspection has been completed. See Business General. In connection with the acquisition of the 23 Properties which are land only, the Company has made a single Mortgage Loan secured by the buildings and other improvements on such Properties. In connection with the initial commitments with the ten Properties consisting of land only, the Company anticipates providing mortgage financing to the tenant which will be collateralized by the building improvements. If the Mortgage Loan is executed, it is expected to be executed under substantially the same terms described in Business - Mortgage Loans. SECURED EQUIPMENT LEASES. The Secured Equipment Leases will be funded solely from the proceeds of the Loan. The Company expects that the Secured Equipment Leases will be structured so that they will be treated as loans secured by personal property for federal income tax purposes. The Company has neither identified any prospective operators of Restaurant Chains that will participate in such financing arrangements nor negotiated any specific terms of a Secured Equipment Lease. See Business General. The Company has established certain conflict resolution procedures relating to (i) transactions between the Company and the Advisor or its Affiliates, (ii) certain future offerings, and (iii) allocation of restaurant properties and Secured Equipment Leases among certain affiliated entities. See Conflicts of Interest Certain Conflict Resolution Procedures. For the first five to ten years after commencement of this offering, the Company intends to reinvest in additional Properties and Mortgage Loans any proceeds of the Sale of a Property or Mortgage Loan that are not required to be distributed to stockholders in order to preserve the Company's status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. The proceeds from the Sale of Secured Equipment Leases will be used to fund additional Secured Equipment Leases, or to reduce the Company's outstanding indebtedness on the Loan. At or prior to the end of the ten-year period, the Company intends to provide stockholders of the Company with liquidity of their investment, either in whole or in part, through Listing (although there is no assurance of such liquidity), or by commencing orderly Sales of the Company's assets. If Listing occurs, the Company intends to reinvest in additional Properties, Mortgage Loans, and Secured Equipment Leases any Net Sales Proceeds not required to be distributed to stockholders in order to preserve the Company's status as a REIT. See Business General and Business Sale of Properties, Mortgage Loans, and Secured Equipment Leases. INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES The Company's primary investment objectives are: o to preserve, protect, and enhance the Company's assets. o to make Distributions commencing in the initial year of Company operations. o to obtain fixed income through the receipt of base rent, as well as to increase the Company's income (and Distributions) and provide protection against inflation through automatic increases in base rent and receipt of percentage rent, and to obtain fixed income through the receipt of payments on Secured Equipment Leases. o to qualify and remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. o to provide stockholders of the Company with liquidity of their investment within five to ten years after commencement of the offering, although liquidity cannot be assured thereby, either through (i) Listing or (ii) outside the ordinary course of business and consistent with its objective of qualifying as a REIT, the commencement of orderly Sales of the Company's assets and distribution of the proceeds thereof. The Company intends to meet these objectives by following certain investment policies discussed herein, as summarized on the preceding pages. See Business General, Business Site Selection and Acquisition of Properties, Business Description of Leases, and Investment Objectives and Policies for a more complete description of the manner in which the structure of the Company's business will facilitate the Company's ability to meet its investment objectives. There can be no assurance that these objectives will be met. The Company's investment objectives are subject to review by the Independent Directors and may not be changed without the approval of stockholders owning a majority of the shares of outstanding Common Stock. DESCRIPTION OF SHARES A stockholder's investment will be recorded on the books of the Company. The Company will provide, upon the request of any stockholder wishing to transfer his or her Shares, a transfer form to be completed and executed by the stockholder and returned to the Company. The Company will not issue share certificates. After the termination of the offering, any stockholder may request that the Company redeem for cash all or a significant portion of such stockholder's Shares. The sole source of funds for any such requested redemption will be the net proceeds available from the sale of Shares pursuant to the Reinvestment Plan. There can be no assurance that such net proceeds will be sufficient to permit the Company to redeem all such Shares presented for redemption. See Redemption of Shares. An annual meeting of stockholders will be held each year for the election of the Directors. Other business matters may be presented at the annual meeting or at special stockholder meetings. Each Share is entitled to one vote on each matter to be voted on by stockholders, including the election of the Directors. Stockholders who do not vote with the majority of Shares entitled to vote on questions presented nonetheless will be bound by the majority vote. Stockholder approval is required under Maryland law and the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws for certain types of transactions. Generally, the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws may be amended upon a majority vote of stockholders. Stockholders holding a majority of the Shares must approve a merger or a sale or other disposition of substantially all of the Company's assets other than in the ordinary course of business. Stockholders objecting to the terms of a merger, sale, or other disposition of substantially all of the Company's assets have the right to petition a court for the appraisal and payment of the fair value of their Shares in certain instances. The affirmative vote of a majority of the Shares outstanding and entitled to vote is required to approve the voluntary dissolution of the Company. In order to facilitate compliance with certain restrictions imposed on REITs by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code ), the Articles of Incorporation generally restrict direct or indirect ownership (applying certain attribution rules) of more than 9.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock by one Person, as defined in the Articles of Incorporation. See Summary of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws Restriction on Ownership. For a more complete description of the Shares and the capital structure of the Company, please refer to the Summary of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws Description of Capital Stock section of the Prospectus. DISTRIBUTION POLICY Consistent with the Company's objective of qualifying as a REIT, the Company expects to calculate and declare Distributions monthly during the offering period, and quarterly thereafter, and make Distributions quarterly. Distributions were expected to commence not later than the close of the first full calendar quarter after the first release of funds from escrow to the Company, and in fact the Company declared Distributions in June 1995, and paid such Distributions in July 1995. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company declared and paid Distributions totalling $638,618. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, will determine the amount of the Distributions made by the Company, which amount will depend primarily on net cash from operations. The Company intends to increase Distributions in accordance with increases in net cash from operations. Consistent with the Company's objective of qualifying as a REIT, the Company expects to distribute at least 95% of its real estate investment trust taxable income, although the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may increase that percentage as it deems appropriate. If the cash available to the Company is insufficient to make Distributions, the Company may obtain the needed cash by borrowing funds, issuing new securities, or selling assets. These methods of obtaining cash could affect future Distributions by increasing operating costs or reducing income. In such an event, it is possible that the Company could pay Distributions in excess of its earnings and profits and, accordingly, that such Distributions could constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes, although such Distributions would not reduce stockholders' aggregate Invested Capital. For the year ended December 31, 1995, 59.82% of the Distributions declared and paid were characterized as ordinary income and 40.18% as return of capital for federal income tax basis. Due to the fact that the Company had not acquired all of its Properties and was still in its offering period as of December 31, 1995, the characterization of Distributions for federal income tax purposes is not considered by management to be necessarily representative of the characterization of Distributions in future years. PRIOR PERFORMANCE OF AFFILIATES The Prior Performance Information section of this Prospectus contains a narrative discussion of the public and private real estate limited partnerships sponsored by Affiliates of the Company and of the Advisor during the past ten years, including 17 public limited partnerships formed to invest in restaurants leased on a triple-net basis to operators of national and regional fast-food and family-style restaurant chains. As of December 31, 1995, these partnerships, which purchase properties similar to those to be acquired by the Company, had purchased 628 fast-food and family-style restaurant properties. Based on an analysis of the operating results of the 79 real estate limited partnerships in which principals of the Company have served, individually or with others, as general partners, the Company believes that each of such partnerships has met, or currently is in the process of meeting, its principal investment objectives. Certain statistical data relating to the public limited partnerships with investment objectives similar to those of the Company are contained in Exhibit C Prior Performance Tables. TAX STATUS OF THE COMPANY The Company has made the election under Section 856(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code ), to be taxed as a REIT under the Code beginning with its taxable year ending December 31, 1995. As a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes to its stockholders. Under the Code, REITs are subject to numerous organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that they distribute at least 95% of their taxable income, as figured on an annual basis. If the Company fails to qualify for taxation as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost. See Risk Factors Tax Risks and Federal Income Tax Considerations. Even if the Company qualifies as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, it may be subject to certain federal, state, and local taxes on its income and property and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. See Federal Income Tax Considerations. THE OFFERING A maximum of 10,000,000 Shares ($100,000,000) in the Company are being offered at a price of $10.00 per Share. If the Managing Dealer exercises its option (in the event the offering is oversubscribed) to sell an additional 5,000,000 Shares, a maximum of 15,000,000 ($150,000,000) Shares in the Company will be offered at a price of $10.00 per Share. The Company also has registered an offering of an additional 1,500,000 Shares ($15,000,000) that are available only to stockholders who receive a copy of this Prospectus and elect to participate in the Reinvestment Plan. Any participation in such plan subsequent to this offering must be made pursuant to solicitation under a separate prospectus. See Summary of Reinvestment Plan. The Shares are being offered by the Managing Dealer and other broker- dealers that are members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or exempt from broker-dealer registration (the Soliciting Dealers ) on a best efforts basis, which means that no one is guaranteeing that any minimum number of Shares will be sold. Both the Company and the Advisor are Affiliates of the Managing Dealer. See The Offering Plan of Distribution. All subscription funds for Shares of the Company will be deposited in an interest-bearing escrow account with SouthTrust Estate & Trust Company, Inc. See The Offering for a description of the current status of the offering. A minimum investment of 250 Shares ($2,500) is required. IRAs, Keogh plans, and pension plans must make a minimum investment of at least 100 Shares ($1,000), except for Iowa tax-exempt stockholders who must make a minimum investment of 250 Shares ($2,500). For Minnesota stockholders only, IRAs and qualified plans must make a minimum investment of 200 Shares ($2,000). In addition, Nebraska, New York, and North Carolina stockholders must make a minimum investment of 500 Shares ($5,000). Following an initial subscription for at least the required minimum investment, any stockholder may make additional purchases in increments of one Share. Maine stockholders, however, may not purchase additional Shares in amounts less than the applicable minimum investment except with respect to Shares purchased pursuant to the Reinvestment Plan. See The Offering General, The Offering Subscription Procedures, and Summary of Reinvestment Plan. DEFINITIONS This Prospectus includes simplified terms and definitions to make the Prospectus easier to understand. These simplified terms and definitions do not include all of the details of the terms, however, and stockholders therefore should review the Definitions section for a more complete understanding. RISK FACTORS The purchase of Shares involves significant risks and therefore is suitable only for persons who understand the possible consequences of an investment in the Company and who are able to bear the risk of loss of their investment. Prospective stockholders should consider the following risks in addition to other information describing an investment in the Shares set forth elsewhere in this Prospectus. INVESTMENT RISKS POSSIBLE LACK OF DIVERSIFICATION. There can be no assurance that the Company will sell the maximum number of Shares. The potential profitability of the Company and its ability to diversify its investments, both geographically and by type of restaurant Properties purchased, will be limited by the amount of funds at its disposal. RISKS OF RELIANCE ON MANAGEMENT. Stockholders will be relying entirely on the management ability of the Advisor and on the oversight of the Board of Directors. Stockholders have no right or power to take part in the management of the Company, except through the exercise of their stockholder voting rights. Thus, no prospective stockholder should purchase any of the Shares offered hereby unless the prospective stockholder is willing to entrust all aspects of the management of the Company to the Advisor and the Board of Directors. None of the prior programs organized by Affiliates of the Company has offered Mortgage Loans or Secured Equipment Leases. See Management for a discussion of the experience of the directors of the Advisor and the Directors of the Company in real estate investments and Equipment financing. Also see Conflicts of Interests for a discussion of the potential for realization by the Advisor and its Affiliates of substantial commissions, fees, compensation, and other income and for a discussion of various other conflicts of interest. RISKS OF RELIANCE ON ADVISOR. The Advisor, with approval from the Board of Directors, will be responsible for the daily management of the Company, including all acquisitions, dispositions, and financings. The Advisor may be terminated by the Board of Directors, with or without cause, but only subject to payment and release from all guarantees and other obligations incurred in connection with its role as Advisor. See Management Compensation. RISK ASSOCIATED WITH LEVERAGE. Other than the Loan or to preserve its status as a REIT, the Company does not intend to borrow money and until Listing occurs, the Company will not encumber Properties in connection with any borrowing. At all times, the maximum amount the Company may borrow is 300% of the Company's Net Assets, although the Board of Directors anticipates that the aggregate amount of any borrowing by the Company will not exceed 50% of Real Estate Asset Value. The use of borrowing may present an element of risk in the event that the cash flow from lease payments on its Properties and payments on Secured Equipment Leases are insufficient to meet its debt obligations. In addition, lenders to the Company may seek to impose restrictions on future borrowings, Distributions and operating policies of the Company. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. As discussed in detail in Conflicts of Interest, the Company will be subject to conflicts of interest arising out of its relationship to the Advisor and its Affiliates. Such conflicts include matters related to (i) allocation of Properties and management time and services between the Company and various partnerships and other entities as to each of which the officers and directors of the Advisor and certain Directors and officers of the Company have management responsibilities, (ii) the timing and terms of the sale of a Property, (iii) negotiation and funding of Mortgage Loans, (iv) negotiation and funding of Secured Equipment Leases, (v) investments with Affiliates of the Advisor, (vi) compensation to the Advisor, (vii) the Company's relationship with the Managing Dealer (which is an Affiliate of the Company and the Advisor), and (viii) the fact that the Company's securities and tax counsel also serves as securities and tax counsel for certain Affiliates of the Company and that neither the Company nor the stockholders will have separate counsel. See Conflicts of Interest. LACK OF LIQUIDITY OF SHARES. Stockholders may not be able to sell their Shares promptly at a desired price; therefore, the Shares should be considered as a long-term investment only. Currently there is no public market for the Shares. The Board of Directors, with or without the consent of the stockholders, may apply for Listing if the Board of Directors (including a majority of Independent Directors) determines Listing to be in the best interests of the stockholders. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will apply for Listing, that any such application will be made before the passage of a significant period of time, that any application will be accepted or, even if accepted, that a public trading market will develop. In any event, the Articles of Incorporation provide that the Company will not apply for Listing before the completion or termination of the offering. In the event Listing occurs, Shares may be sold only through the national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market on which the Shares are listed. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH MANAGEMENT OF JOINT VENTURES. The Independent Directors of the Company must approve all Joint Venture or general partnership arrangements to which the Company is a party. Subject to such approval, the Company may enter into a Joint Venture with an unaffiliated party to purchase a Property, and the Joint Venture or general partnership agreement relating to that Joint Venture or partnership may provide that the Company will share management control of the Joint Venture with the unaffiliated party. In the event the Joint Venture or general partnership agreement provides that the Company will have sole management control of the Joint Venture, such agreement may be ineffective as to a third party who has no notice of the agreement, and the Company therefore may be unable to control fully the activities of such Joint Venture. In the event that the Company enters into a Joint Venture with another program sponsored by an Affiliate, it is anticipated that the Company will not have sole management control of the Joint Venture. LACK OF CONTROL OF PROPERTY MANAGEMENT. The Company uses triple-net leases and, therefore, day-to-day management of the Properties will be the responsibility of the tenants of the Properties. In general, the Company intends to enter into leasing agreements only with tenants having substantial prior experience in the restaurant industry, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to make such arrangements because, as of April 9, 1996, the Company had purchased only 48 Properties. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH MORTGAGE LOANS. None of the prior programs organized by Affiliates of the Company has offered Mortgage Loans and the experience of the Advisor and Directors of the Company with mortgage financing is limited. In the event that a borrower defaults on a Mortgage Loan, the Company may not be able to sell the real property which it holds as security for the Mortgage Loan at a price that would enable the Company to recover the balance of the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loans may also be subject to regulation by federal, state and local authorities and subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions. The Company may determine not to make Mortgage Loans in any jurisdiction in which it believes the Company has not complied in all material respects with applicable requirements. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH SECURED EQUIPMENT LEASES. None of the prior programs organized by Affiliates of the Company has offered Secured Equipment Leases and the experience of the Advisor and Directors of the Company with Equipment leasing is limited. In the event that a lessee defaults on a Secured Equipment Lease, the Company may not be able to sell the subject Equipment at a price that would enable the Company to recover its costs associated with such Equipment. The Secured Equipment Lease program may also be subject to regulation by federal, state and local authorities and subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions. The Company may determine not to operate the Secured Equipment Lease program in any jurisdiction in which it believes the Company has not complied in all material respects with applicable requirements. In addition, there are certain federal income tax risks associated with the Secured Equipment Lease program. See Tax Risks. BINDING NATURE OF MAJORITY STOCKHOLDER VOTE. Stockholders may take certain actions, including approving most amendments to the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, by a vote of a majority of the Shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Certain provisions designed to preserve the Company's status as a REIT cannot be amended without a supermajority vote of two-thirds of the Shares entitled to vote. All actions taken, if approved by the holders of the requisite number of Shares, would be binding on all stockholders. Certain of these provisions may discourage or make it more difficult for another party to acquire control of the Company or to effect a change in the operation of the Company. The Board of Directors has the power to cause the issuance of additional Shares without obtaining stockholder approval. If Listing occurs, the business of the Company may continue indefinitely without any specific time limitation by which the Company must distribute Net Sales Proceeds to the stockholders. In that case, the stockholders would be dependent upon the sale of their Shares for the return of their investment in the Company. There can be no assurance that the price a stockholder would receive in a sale on an exchange or in the over-the-counter market will be representative of the value of the assets owned by the Company or that it will equal or exceed the amount a stockholder paid for the Shares. Under certain circumstances, the Company may prevent the ownership, transfer, and/or accumulation of Shares in order to protect the status of the Company as a REIT or, as otherwise deemed by the Board of Directors, to be in the best interests of the stockholders. See Summary of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws Restriction of Ownership. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER RELATING TO REIT STATUS. The Articles of Incorporation generally restrict direct or indirect ownership (applying certain attribution rules) of more than 9.8% of the outstanding Common Stock or 9.8% of any series of outstanding Preferred Stock by one Person (as defined in the Articles of Incorporation). See Summary of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws Restriction of Ownership. LIMITED LIABILITY OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS. The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that an officer or Director's liability to the Company, its stockholders, or third parties for monetary damages may be limited. Generally, the Company is obligated under the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws to indemnify its officers and Directors against certain liabilities incurred in connection with their services in such capacities. The Company has executed indemnification agreements with each officer and Director which will indemnify the officer or Director for any such liabilities that he or she incurs. Such indemnification agreements could limit the legal remedies available to the Company and the stockholders against the Directors and Officers of the Company. See Summary of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws Limitation of Director and Officer Liability. RISKS FOR RETIREMENT PLAN STOCKHOLDERS. The Company believes that the assets of the Company will not be deemed, under ERISA, to be plan assets of any Plan that invests in the Shares, although it has not requested an opinion of Counsel to that effect. If the assets of the Company were deemed to be plan assets under ERISA (i) it is not clear that the exemptions from the prohibited transaction rules under ERISA would be available for the Company's transactions, and (ii) the prudence standards of ERISA would apply to investments made by the Company (and might not be met). ERISA makes plan fiduciaries personally responsible for any losses resulting to the plan from any breach of fiduciary duty and the Code imposes nondeductible excise taxes on prohibited transactions. RISK OF INSUFFICIENT WORKING CAPITAL. There can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient working capital. As of December 31, 1995, the Company had stockholders' equity of $31,980,648. USE OF LEVERAGE TO MAKE DISTRIBUTIONS. The Company may incur indebtedness if necessary to satisfy the requirement that the Company distribute at least 95% of its real estate investment trust taxable income or otherwise, as is necessary or advisable to assure that the Company maintains its qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. In such an event, it is possible that the Company could make Distributions in excess of its earnings and profits and, accordingly, that such Distributions could constitute a return of capital for federal income tax purposes, although such Distributions would not reduce stockholders' aggregate Invested Capital. REAL ESTATE AND FINANCING RISKS RISKS RELATED TO AN UNSPECIFIED PROPERTY OFFERING. The Company has established certain criteria for evaluating Restaurant Chains, particular Properties, and the operators of the Properties proposed for investment by the Company. See Business Standards for Investment and Business General for a description of these criteria and the types of Properties in which the Company intends to invest. Because the Company, as of April 9, 1996, had acquired only 48 Properties (see Business - Property Acquisitions for a description), prospective investors have no information to assist them in evaluating the merits of the additional 92 to 112 Properties expected to be purchased or developed by the Company. There is no limit on the number of restaurant Properties of a particular Restaurant Chain which the Company may acquire, although the Board of Directors currently does not anticipate that the Company will invest more than 25% of its Gross Proceeds in Properties of any one Restaurant Chain. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in obtaining suitable investments on financially attractive terms or that, if investments are made, the objectives of the Company will be achieved. There also can be no assurance that all of the Properties will operate profitably or that defaults will not occur. See Management and Prior Performance Information, however, for a description of the prior real estate experience of the Affiliates of the Company and the Advisor. The Advisor or its Affiliates from time to time expect to acquire land or restaurant properties on a temporary basis with the intention of subsequently transferring the properties to one or more of the CNL Group, Inc. ( CNL ) programs, including the Company, although the Company has adopted guidelines to minimize such conflicts. This practice could represent a risk to the Company and result in increased potential conflicts of interest among the Company, the Advisor, its Affiliates and prior or future programs formed by Affiliates of the Advisor. See Conflicts of Interest Acquisition of Properties. POSSIBLE DELAYS IN INVESTMENT. To the extent consistent with the Company's objective of qualifying as a REIT, the offering proceeds may remain uninvested for up to the later of two years from the initial date of this Prospectus or one year after termination of the offering, although it is expected that substantially all net offering proceeds will be invested prior to the end of such period. See Prior Performance Information for a summary description of the investment experience of Affiliates and the Advisor in prior CNL programs, which is not necessarily indicative of the rate at which the proceeds of this offering will be invested. An extended offering period, the inability of the Advisor to find suitable Properties, or the fact that a program formed by Affiliates of the Advisor subsequent to the commencement of this offering currently is in the process of acquiring fast-food and family-style restaurant properties to substantially complete its acquisition program prior to the time that the Company has funds available to invest in Properties may result in delays in investment of Company funds in Properties and in the receipt of a return from real property investments. Revenues received by the Company pending investment in Properties or making Mortgage Loans will be limited to the rates of return available on short- term, highly liquid investments with appropriate safety of principal. These rates of return, which affect the amount of cash available to make Distributions to the stockholders, are expected to be lower than the Company would receive under its Property leases or Mortgage Loans. Further, to the extent consistent with the Company's objective of qualifying as a REIT, any funds of the Company required to be invested in Properties and not so invested or reserved for Company purposes within the later of two years from the initial date of this Prospectus, or one year after the termination of the offering, will be distributed pro rata to the then stockholders of the Company in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation. RISKS OF ACQUIRING PROPERTIES UNDER CONSTRUCTION. The Company intends to acquire sites on which a particular restaurant to be owned by the Company is to be built as well as existing restaurants (including restaurants which require renovation). To the extent that the Company acquires property on which improvements are to be constructed or completed or renovations are to be made, the Company may be subject to certain risks in connection with the developer's ability to control construction costs, and the timing of completion of construction, or to build in conformity with plans, specifications, and timetables. The Company's agreements with the developer will provide certain safeguards designed to minimize these risks. Further, in the event of a default by a developer, the Company generally will have the right to require the tenant to repurchase the Property that is under development at a pre-established price designed to reimburse the Company for all costs incurred by the Company in connection with the acquisition and development of the Property. There can be no assurance, however, that under such circumstances, the tenant will have sufficient funds to fulfill its obligations. See Business Site Selection and Acquisition Properties. RISKS OF JOINT INVESTMENT IN PROPERTIES. In the event that the Company enters into a Joint Venture with another program formed by Affiliates of the Advisor, there will be a potential risk of impasse in certain joint venture decisions since the approval of the Company and of each co-venturer is required for certain decisions. In any Joint Venture with an affiliated program, however, the Company will have the right to buy the other co-venturer's interest or to sell its own interest on specified terms and conditions in the event of an impasse regarding a Sale. Under such circumstances, it is possible that neither party will have the funds necessary to consummate the transaction. See Business Joint Venture Arrangements. In addition, the Company may experience difficulty in locating a third party purchaser for its Joint Venture interest and in obtaining a favorable sale price for such Joint Venture interest. Investments in Joint Ventures may involve the risk that the Company's co- venturer may have economic or business interests or goals which, at a particular time, are inconsistent with the interests or goals of the Company, that such co- venturer may be in a position to take action contrary to the Company's instructions, requests, policies or objectives, or that such co-venturer may experience financial difficulties. Among other things, actions by a co-venturer might subject property owned by the Joint Venture to liabilities in excess of those contemplated by the terms of the joint venture agreement or to other adverse consequences. RISKS RELATING TO THE ABILITY OF THE COMPANY TO LIQUIDATE. The Company intends, to the extent consistent with the its objective of qualifying as a REIT, to reinvest Net Sales Proceeds from the Sale of Properties, Mortgage Loans, and Secured Equipment Leases in additional Properties, Mortgage Loans, and Secured Equipment Leases for the first five to ten years after commencement of the offering. If Listing occurs, the proceeds from Sales may be reinvested in other Properties, Mortgage Loans, or Secured Equipment Leases for an indefinite period of time. Unless Listing occurs within ten years after commencement of the offering, the Company will undertake, to the extent consistent with the Company's objective of qualifying as a REIT, the orderly Sale of the Company's assets, the distribution of the Net Sales Proceeds of such Sales to stockholders, and will engage only in activities related to its orderly liquidation unless the stockholders elect otherwise. Neither the Advisor nor the Board of Directors may be able to control the timing of Sales due to market conditions, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to sell its assets so as to return stockholders' aggregate Invested Capital, to generate a profit for the stockholders, or to fully satisfy its obligations under the Loan. Invested Capital, in the aggregate, will be returned to stockholders upon disposition of the Properties only if the Properties are sold for more than their original purchase price, although return of capital, for federal income tax purposes, is not necessarily limited to stockholder distributions following Sales of Properties. See Federal Income Tax Considerations. In the event that a purchase money obligation is taken in partial payment of the sales price of a Property, the proceeds of the Sale will be realized over a period of years. Further, entering into Mortgage Loans with terms of 15 to 20 years and Secured Equipment Leases with terms of five to seven years may cause any intended liquidation of the Company to be delayed beyond the time of disposition of the Properties and until such time as the Mortgage Loans and Secured Equipment Leases expire or are sold. RISKS RELATING TO TENANT PURCHASE RIGHTS. Certain tenants are expected to have the right to purchase the Property from the Company, commencing a specified number of years after the date of the lease, which may lessen the ability of the Advisor and the Board of Directors to freely control the Sale of the Property. The leases also generally provide the tenant with a right of first refusal on any proposed sale provisions. See Business Description of Leases Right of Tenant to Purchase. A tenant will have no obligation to purchase the restaurant it leases. RISKS OF REAL PROPERTY INVESTMENTS. The value of leased Properties such as those to be acquired by the Company, the ability of the tenants to pay rent on a timely basis, and the amount of the rent, may be adversely affected by certain changes in general or local economic or market conditions, increased costs of energy or food products, increased costs and shortages of labor, competitive factors, fuel shortages, quality of restaurant management, the ability of a Restaurant Chain to fulfill any obligations to operators of its restaurants, limited alternative uses for the building, changing consumer habits, condemnation or uninsured losses, changing demographics, changing traffic patterns, inability to remodel outmoded restaurants as required by the franchise or lease agreement, voluntary termination by a tenant of its obligations under a lease, and other factors. Neither the Company nor the Board of Directors can control these factors. Each Property will have a single tenant, and tenants may lease more than one Property. Events such as the default or financial failure of a tenant therefore could cause one or more Properties to become vacant under certain circumstances. Vacancies would reduce the cash receipts of the Company and, at least until the Company is able to re-lease any such Properties, could decrease their ultimate resale value. The value of the Company's Properties will depend principally upon the value of the leases of the Properties. Minor defaults by a tenant may continue for some time before the Advisor or Board of Directors determines that it is in the interest of the Company to evict that tenant. If a Property becomes vacant, the Company may be unable either to re-lease the Property for the rent due under the prior lease or to re-lease the Property without incurring additional expenditures relating to the Property. The Company could experience delays in enforcing its rights against, and collecting rents (and, under certain circumstances, real estate taxes and insurance costs) due from, a defaulting tenant. The Company will not be a party to any franchise agreement between a Restaurant Chain and a tenant, and such agreement could therefore be modified or canceled without notice to, or the prior consent of, the Company. In that event, the tenant could be required to cease its operations at a Property, although the tenant's obligation to pay rent to the Company would continue. Before operations at the Property could resume, however, the Company would be required to locate a new tenant acceptable to a Restaurant Chain. The inability of tenants to make lease payments or of borrowers to make Mortgage Loan payments as a result of any of these factors could result in a decrease in the amount of cash available to make Distributions to the stockholders. If the Company, as lessor, incurs any liability which is not fully covered by insurance, the Company would be liable for such amounts, and returns to the stockholders could be reduced. See Business Description of Leases Insurance, Taxes, Maintenance, and Repairs for a description of the types of insurance that the leases of the Properties will require the tenant to obtain. RISKS OF ADVERSE TRENDS IN RESTAURANT INDUSTRY. The Properties in which the Company intends to invest are expected to be operated by Restaurant Chains within the fast-food, family-style, or casual dining segments of the restaurant industry, and the Company does not intend to invest in other segments of the restaurant industry. The success of the future operations of fast-food, family- style, and casual dining segments will depend largely on their ability to adapt to dominant trends in the restaurant industry, including greater competitive pressures, increased consolidation of the leading fast-food chains, industry overbuilding, dependence on consumer spending and dining patterns and changing demographics, the introduction of new concepts and menu items, availability of labor, levels of food prices, and general economic conditions. See Business General for a description of the size and nature of the restaurant industry and current trends in the industry. The success of a particular Restaurant Chain concept, the Restaurant Chain's ability to fulfill any obligations to operators of its restaurants, and trends in the fast-food, family-style, and casual dining segments of the restaurant industry will affect the income that the Company derives from restaurants which are part of such Restaurant Chain. RISKS RESULTING FROM COMPETITION. The Company will compete with other entities, including Affiliates, for the acquisition of restaurant sites and completed restaurants. See Conflicts of Interest Prior and Future Programs. In addition, the restaurant business is highly competitive, and it is anticipated that any restaurant Property acquired by the Company will compete with other restaurants in the vicinity. The extent to which the Company will be entitled to receive rent, in the form of percentage rent, in excess of the base rent (including automatic increases in the base rent) for the Properties will depend in part on the ability of the tenants to compete successfully with other restaurants in the vicinity. In addition, the Company will compete with other financing sources for suitable tenants and properties. POSSIBLE ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES. Under various federal and state environmental laws and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up certain hazardous or toxic substances, asbestos-containing materials, or petroleum product releases at the property, and may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and for investigation and cleanup costs incurred by such parties in connection with the contamination. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with the contamination. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contaminations may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. The owner or operator of a site may be liable under common law to third parties for damages and injuries resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the site. All of the Properties will be acquired by the Company subject to satisfactory Phase I environmental assessments or satisfactory Phase II environmental assessments. A Phase I or Phase II environmental assessment may be determined by the Board of Directors or the Advisor to be satisfactory if a problem exists and has not been resolved at the time the Property is acquired provided that the seller has agreed in writing to indemnify the Company. There can be no assurance, however, that any seller will be able to pay under an indemnity obtained by the Company. Further, no assurances can be given that all environmental liabilities have been identified or that no prior owner, operator or current occupant has created an environmental condition not known to the Company. Moreover, no assurances can be given that (i) future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability or (ii) the current environmental condition of the Properties will not be affected by tenants and occupants of the Properties, by the condition of land or operations in the vicinity of the Properties (such as the presence of underground storage tanks), or by third parties unrelated to the Company. RISKS RELATING TO UNSPECIFIED SECURED EQUIPMENT LEASES. The Company, as of the date of this Prospectus, has not entered into any arrangements that create a reasonable probability that the Company will extend a Secured Equipment Lease to a particular operator, and therefore prospective stockholders have no information to assist them in evaluating the merits of the Secured Equipment Lease program or of any Secured Equipment Lease. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in identifying suitable operators or negotiating Secured Equipment Leases on financially attractive terms or that lessees will fulfill their obligations under Secured Equipment Leases. TAX RISKS EFFECT OF FAILURE TO QUALIFY AS A REIT. The Company intends to operate so as to qualify and remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 1995. A qualified REIT generally is not taxed at the corporate level on income it currently distributes to its stockholders, so long as it distributes at least 95% of its real estate investment trust taxable income. See Federal Income Tax Considerations Taxation of the Company. The Company expects to have qualified as a REIT in its taxable year ended December 31, 1995, but no assurance can be given that it did so qualify or that it will continue to qualify in the future. In this regard, based on certain representations and assumptions, the Company has received an opinion of tax counsel to the Company ( Counsel ) to the effect that the Company qualified as a REIT for the taxable year ended December 31, 1995, that the Company is organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a REIT, and that the Company's proposed method of operation will enable it to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Qualification as a REIT, however, involves the application of highly technical and complex Code provisions as to which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations. Certain facts and circumstances which may be wholly or partially beyond the Company's control may affect its ability to qualify on an ongoing basis as a REIT. In addition, no assurance can be given that future legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the tax laws (or the application thereof) with respect to qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. The opinion of Counsel is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) or the courts. RISKS RELATING TO THE SECURED EQUIPMENT LEASES. In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, not more than 25% of the Company's total assets may be represented by personal property, or loans secured by personal property on certain testing dates. In addition, loans secured by personal property made to each borrower must represent less than 5% of the Company's total assets on such testing dates. Counsel is of the opinion, based on certain assumptions, that the Secured Equipment Leases will be treated as loans secured by personal property for federal income tax purposes. The Company believes that the value of the Secured Equipment Leases together with any personal property owned by the Company, will in the aggregate represent less than 25% of the Company's total assets and that the value of the Secured Equipment Leases entered into with any particular lessee will represent less than 5% of the Company's total assets. Counsel has relied on the representations of the Company regarding such values in rendering its opinion as to the qualification of the Company as a REIT. If the Company fails to satisfy the 25% test or the 5% test either at the time of the offering or on any subsequent testing date, the Company will fail to qualify (or cease to qualify, as the case may be) as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. In addition, if, contrary to the opinion of Counsel, the Secured Equipment Leases are not treated as loans, but are instead treated as leases for federal income tax purposes, income from the Secured Equipment Leases will generally not satisfy either the 95% or the 75% gross income tests for REIT qualification. See Federal Income Tax Considerations Taxation of the Company, and Characterization of the Secured Equipment Leases. EFFECT OF REIT DISQUALIFICATION. If, in any taxable year, the Company were to fail to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, it would not be allowed a deduction for dividends to stockholders in computing taxable income and would be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate rates. In addition, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, the Company would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which REIT qualification is lost. The additional tax liability resulting from the failure to so qualify would significantly reduce the amount of funds available to make Distributions to stockholders. Distributions to stockholders generally would be taxable as ordinary income to the extent of current and accumulated earnings and profits and, subject to certain limitations, would be eligible for the corporate dividends received deduction. Although the Company intends to operate in a manner designed to permit it to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax, or other events or circumstances could cause it to fail to so qualify. See Federal Income Tax Considerations Taxation of the Company. EFFECT OF DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS. The Company may be required, under certain circumstances, to accrue as income for tax purposes interest, rent and other items treated as earned for tax purposes but not yet received. In addition, the Company may be required not to accrue as expenses for tax purposes certain items which actually have been paid or certain of the Company's deductions might be disallowed by the Service. In any such event, the Company could have taxable income in excess of cash available for distribution. If the Company has taxable income in excess of cash available for distribution, the Company could be required to borrow funds or liquidate investments on unfavorable terms in order to meet the distribution requirement applicable to a REIT. See Federal Income Tax Considerations Taxation of the Company Dis- tribution Requirements. RESTRICTIONS ON MAXIMUM SHARE OWNERSHIP. In order for the Company to qualify as a REIT, no more than 50% of the value of the outstanding equity securities may be owned, directly or indirectly (applying certain attribution rules), by five or fewer individuals (or certain entities) at any time during the last half of the Company's taxable year. To ensure that the Company will not fail to qualify as a REIT under this test, the Company's Articles of Incorporation include certain provisions restricting the accumulation of Shares. These restrictions may (i) discourage a change of control of the Company; (ii) deter individuals and entities from making tender offers for Shares, which offers may be attractive to stockholders; or (iii) limit the opportunity for stockholders to receive a premium for their Shares in the event a stockholder is making purchases of Shares in order to acquire a block of Shares. OTHER TAX LIABILITIES. Even if the Company qualifies as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, it may be subject to certain federal, state and local taxes on its income and property. See Federal Income Tax Considerations State and Local Taxes. CHANGES IN TAX LAWS. The discussions of the federal income tax aspects of the offering are based on current law, including the Code, the Regulations issued thereunder, certain administrative interpretations thereof, and court decisions. Consequently, future events that modify or otherwise affect those provisions may result in treatment for federal income tax purposes of the Company and the stockholders that is materially and adversely different from that described in this Prospectus, both for taxable years arising before and after such events. There is no assurance that future legislation and administrative interpretations will not be retroactive in effect. SUITABILITY STANDARDS AND HOW TO SUBSCRIBE SUITABILITY STANDARDS The Shares offered hereby are suitable only as a long-term investment for persons of adequate financial means who have no need for liquidity in this investment. Initially, there is not expected to be any public market for the Shares, which means that it may be difficult to sell Shares. See Summary of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws Restrictions on Ownership for a description of the transfer requirements. As a result, the Company has established suitability standards which require investors to have either (i) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $45,000 and an annual gross income of at least $45,000, or (ii) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $150,000. Iowa, Maine, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Tennessee have established suitability standards different from those established by the Company, and Shares will be sold only to investors in those states who meet the special suitability standards set forth below. IOWA, MISSOURI, NORTH CAROLINA AND TENNESSEE The investor has either (i) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $60,000 and an annual gross income of at least $60,000, or (ii) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $225,000. MAINE The investor has either (i) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $50,000 and an annual gross income of at least $50,000, or (ii) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $200,000. NEW HAMPSHIRE The investor has either (i) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $125,000 and an annual gross income of at least $50,000, or (ii) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $250,000. PENNSYLVANIA The investor has (i) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least ten times the investor's investment in the Company, and (ii) either (a) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $45,000 and an annual gross income of at least $45,000, or (b) a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings, and personal automobiles) of at least $150,000. Because the minimum offering of Shares of the Company is less than $16,500,000, Pennsylvania investors are cautioned to evaluate carefully the Company's ability to fully accomplish its stated objectives and to inquire as to the current dollar volume of the Company's subscription proceeds. The foregoing suitability standards must be met by the investor who purchases the Shares. If the investment is being made for a fiduciary account (such as an IRA, Keogh Plan, or corporate pension or profit-sharing plan), the beneficiary, the fiduciary account, or any donor or grantor that is the fiduciary of the account who directly or indirectly supplies the investment funds must meet such suitability standards. In addition, under the laws of certain states, investors may transfer their Shares only to persons who meet similar standards, and the Company may require certain assurances that such standards are met. Investors should read carefully the requirements in connection with resales of Shares as set forth in the Articles of Incorporation and as summarized under Summary of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws Restrictions of Ownership. In purchasing Shares, custodians or trustees of employee pension benefit plans or IRAs may be subject to the fiduciary duties imposed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ( ERISA ) or other applicable laws and to the prohibited transaction rules prescribed by ERISA and related provisions of the Code. See Federal Income Tax Considerations Retirement Plan Stockholders. In addition, prior to purchasing Shares, the trustee or custodian of an employee pension benefit plan or an IRA should determine that such an investment would be permissible under the governing instruments of such plan or account and applicable law. For information regarding unrelated business taxable income, see Federal Income Tax Considerations Taxation of Stockholders Tax-Exempt Stockholders. In order to insure adherence to the suitability standards described above, requisite suitability standards must be met, as set forth in the Subscription Agreement in one of the forms attached hereto as Exhibit D. In addition, Soliciting Dealers who sell Shares have the responsibility to make every reasonable effort to determine that the purchase of Shares is a suitable and appropriate investment for an investor. In making this determination, the Soliciting Dealers will rely on relevant information provided by the investor, including information as to the investor's age, investment objectives, investment experience, income, net worth, financial situation, other investments, and any other pertinent information. See The Offering Subscription Procedures. Executed Subscription Agreements will be maintained in the Company's records for six years. HOW TO SUBSCRIBE An investor who meets the suitability standards described above may subscribe for Shares by completing and executing the Subscription Agreement and delivering it to a Soliciting Dealer, together with a check for the full purchase price of the Shares subscribed for, payable to SouthTrust Estate & Trust Company, Inc., Escrow Agent. See The Offering Subscription Procedures. Certain Soliciting Dealers who have net capital, as defined in the applicable federal securities regulations, of $250,000 or more may instruct their customers to make their checks for Shares subscribed for payable directly to the Soliciting Dealer. Care should be taken to ensure that the Subscription Agreement is filled out correctly and completely. Partnerships, individual fiduciaries signing on behalf of trusts, estates, and in other capacities, and persons signing on behalf of corporations and corporate trustees may be required to obtain additional documents from Soliciting Dealers. ANY SUBSCRIPTION MAY BE REJECTED BY THE COMPANY IN WHOLE OR IN PART, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE SUBSCRIBER MEETS THE MINIMUM SUITABILITY STANDARDS. CERTAIN SOLICITING DEALERS MAY PERMIT INVESTORS WHO MEET THE SUITABILITY STANDARDS DESCRIBED ABOVE TO SUBSCRIBE FOR SHARES BY TELEPHONIC ORDER TO THE SOLICITING DEALER. THIS PROCEDURE MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN CERTAIN STATES. SEE THE OFFERING SUBSCRIPTION PROCEDURES AND THE OFFERING PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION. A MINIMUM INVESTMENT OF 250 SHARES ($2,500) IS REQUIRED. IRAS, KEOGH PLANS, AND PENSION PLANS MUST MAKE A MINIMUM INVESTMENT OF AT LEAST 100 SHARES ($1,000), EXCEPT FOR IOWA TAX-EXEMPT INVESTORS WHO MUST MAKE A MINIMUM INVESTMENT OF 250 SHARES ($2,500). FOR MINNESOTA INVESTORS ONLY, IRAS AND QUALIFIED PLANS MUST MAKE A MINIMUM INVESTMENT OF 200 SHARES ($2,000). IN ADDITION, NEBRASKA, NEW YORK, AND NORTH CAROLINA INVESTORS MUST MAKE A MINIMUM INVESTMENT OF 500 SHARES ($5,000). FOLLOWING AN INITIAL SUBSCRIPTION FOR AT LEAST THE REQUIRED MINIMUM INVESTMENT, ANY INVESTOR MAY MAKE ADDITIONAL PURCHASES IN INCREMENTS OF ONE SHARE. MAINE INVESTORS, HOWEVER, MAY NOT MAKE ADDITIONAL PURCHASES IN AMOUNTS LESS THAN THE APPLICABLE MINIMUM INVESTMENT EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO SHARES PURCHASED PURSUANT TO THE REINVESTMENT PLAN. SEE THE OFFERING GENERAL, THE OFFERING SUBSCRIPTION PROCEDURES, AND SUMMARY OF REINVESTMENT PLAN.

The following chart indicates the relationship between the Advisor and those Affiliates that will provide services to the Company. |------------------------------| |-----------------------------| | CNL AMERICAN PROPERTIES | | | | | | CNL GROUP, INC. | | FUND, INC. | | | | (THE COMPANY) | | | |-------------------------|----| |-----------------------------| | | | | (ADVISORY AGREEMENT) 100% | | | --------------------------------- | | | |------------------------| |------------------| |CNL FUND ADVISORS, INC. | | CNL SECURITIES | | (ADVISOR TO COMPANY) | | CORP. | |------------------------| |(MANAGING DEALER) | |------------------| PRIOR AND FUTURE PROGRAMS In the past, Affiliates of the Advisor have organized over 100 other real estate investments, currently have other real estate holdings, and in the future expect to form, offer interests in, and manage other real estate programs in addition to the Company, and make additional real estate investments. Some of these (including 17 public partnerships) involve and will involve Affiliates of the Advisor in the ownership, operation, leasing, and management of fast-food, family-style and casual dining, including restaurants that may be suitable for the Company. Certain of these affiliated public or private real estate programs invest or may invest solely in fast-food, casual dining, and family-style restaurants, may purchase properties concurrently with the Company and may lease fast-food, casual dining, and family-style restaurant properties to operators who also lease or operate certain of the Company's Properties. These properties, if located in the vicinity of, or adjacent to, Properties acquired by the Company may affect the Properties' gross revenues. Additionally, such other programs may offer financing to the same or similar entities as those targeted by the Company, thereby affecting the Company's Secured Equipment Lease program. Such conflicts between the Company and affiliated programs may affect the value of the Company's investments as well as its Net Income. The Company believes that the Advisor has established guidelines to minimize such conflicts. See Certain Conflict Resolution Procedures below. An Affiliate of the Advisor currently is purchasing properties for a private program that was organized to purchase, lease and/or finance fast-food and family-style restaurant facilities, including furniture, fixtures, equipment and start-up costs associated therewith. Such program generally will purchase restaurant properties or an interest therein only when furniture, fixtures, equipment and start-up costs also will be supplied by the program. It is not expected that the financing offered by such program will be segregable and, therefore, the program will not compete with the Company for lessees. If the equipment arrangement offered by such program becomes segregable, a conflict could arise between such program and the Company for lessees. ACQUISITION OF PROPERTIES Affiliates of the Advisor regularly have opportunities to acquire restaurant properties of a type suitable for acquisition by the Company as a result of their existing relationships and past experience with various fast- food, family-style and casual dining restaurant chains and their franchisees. See Business General. A purchaser who wishes to acquire one or more of these properties must do so within a relatively short period of time, occasionally at a time when the Company (due to insufficient funds, for example) may be unable to make the acquisition. In an effort to address these situations and preserve the acquisition opportunities for the Company (and other entities with which the Advisor or its Affiliates are affiliated), Affiliates of the Advisor maintain lines of credit which enable them to acquire restaurant properties on an interim basis. Typically, no more than ten to 15 restaurant properties are temporarily owned by Affiliates of the Advisor on this interim basis at any particular time. These restaurant properties generally will be purchased from Affiliates of the Advisor, at their cost, by one or more existing or future public or private programs formed by Affiliates of the Advisor. The Advisor could experience potential conflicts of interest in connection with the negotiation of the purchase price and other terms of the acquisition of a Property, as well as the terms of the lease of a Property, due to its relationship with its Affiliates and the ongoing business relationship of its Affiliates with operators of Restaurant Chains. The Advisor or its Affiliates also may be subject to potential conflicts of interest at such time as the Company wishes to acquire a property that also would be suitable for acquisition by an Affiliate of CNL. Affiliates of the Advisor serve as Directors of the Company and, in this capacity, have a fiduciary obligation to act in the best interest of the stockholders of the Company and, as general partners or directors of CNL Affiliates, to act in the best interests of the stockholders in other programs with investments that may be similar to those of the Company and will use their best efforts to assure that the Company will be treated as favorably as any such other program. See Management Fiduciary Responsibility of the Board of Directors. In addition, the Company has developed procedures to resolve potential conflicts of interest in the allocation of properties between the Company and certain of its Affiliates. See Certain Conflict Resolution Procedures below. The Company will supplement this Prospectus during the offering period to disclose the acquisition of a Property at such time as the Advisor believes that a reasonable probability exists that the Company will acquire the Property, including an acquisition from the Advisor or its Affiliates. See Business - Property Acquisitions for a description of the Properties that have been acquired by the Company and the status of negotiations for additional Properties. SALES OF PROPERTIES A conflict also could arise in connection with the Advisor's determination as to whether or not to sell a Property, since the interests of the Advisor and the stockholders may differ as a result of their distinct financial and tax positions and the compensation to which the Advisor or its Affiliates may be entitled upon the Sale of a Property. See Compensation of the Advisor, below for a description of these compensation arrangements. In order to resolve this potential conflict, the Board of Directors will be required to approve each Sale of a Property. In the unlikely event that the Company and another CNL program attempted to sell similar properties at the same time, a conflict could arise since the two programs potentially could compete with each other for a suitable purchaser. In order to resolve this potential conflict, the Advisor has agreed not to approve the sale of any of the Company's Properties contemporaneously with the sale of a property owned by another CNL program if the two properties are part of the same Restaurant Chain and are within a three-mile radius of each other, unless the Advisor and the principals of the other CNL program are able to locate a suitable purchaser for each property. JOINT INVESTMENT WITH AN AFFILIATED PROGRAM The Company may invest in Joint Ventures with another program sponsored by the Advisor or its Affiliates if a majority of the Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, not otherwise interested in the transaction, determine that the investment in the Joint Venture is fair and reasonable to the Company and on substantially the same terms and conditions as those to be received by the co-venturer or co-venturers. COMPETITION FOR MANAGEMENT TIME The officers and directors of the Advisor and certain Directors and officers of the Company currently are engaged, and in the future will engage, in the management of other business entities and properties and in other business activities. They will devote only as much of their time to the business of the Company as they, in their judgment, determine is reasonably required, which will be substantially less than their full time. These officers and Directors of the Company and officers and directors of the Advisor may experience conflicts of interest in allocating management time, services, and functions among the Company and the various partnerships, stockholder programs (public or private), and any other business ventures in which any of them are or may become involved. COMPENSATION OF THE ADVISOR The Advisor has been and will be engaged to perform various services for the Company and has and will receive fees and compensation for such services. None of the agreements for such services were the result of arm's-length negotiations. All such agreements, including the Advisory Agreement, require approval by a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, not otherwise interested in such transactions, as being fair and reasonable to the Company and on terms and conditions no less favorable than those which could be obtained from unaf
