PART I
Item 1. Business
CNL Income Fund XV, Ltd. (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership") is a
limited partnership which was organized pursuant to the laws of the State of
Florida on September 2, 1993. The general partners of the Partnership are Robert
A. Bourne, James M. Seneff, Jr. and CNL Realty Corporation, a Florida
corporation (the "General Partners"). Beginning on February 23, 1994, the
Partnership offered for sale up to $40,000,000 of limited partnership interests
(the "Units") (4,000,000 Units at $10 per Unit) pursuant to a registration
statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, effective
February 23, 1994. The offering terminated on September 1, 1994, at which date
the maximum offering proceeds of $40,000,000 had been received from investors
who were admitted to the Partnership as limited partners (the "Limited
Partners").
The Partnership was organized to acquire both newly constructed and
existing restaurant properties, as well as properties upon which restaurants
were to be constructed (the "Properties"), which are leased primarily to
operators of national and regional fast-food and family-style restaurant chains
(the "Restaurant Chains"). Net proceeds to the Partnership from its offering of
Units, after deduction of organizational and offering expenses, totaled
$35,200,000 and were used to acquire 45 Properties, including 15 Properties
consisting of only land and two Properties owned by a joint venture in which the
Partnership is a co-venturer, to pay acquisition fees totaling $2,200,000 to an
affiliate of the General Partners and to establish a working capital reserve for
Partnership purposes.
As of December 31, 1999, the Partnership owned 40 Properties directly,
which included 14 wholly owned Properties consisting of only land, and owned
nine Properties indirectly through joint venture or tenancy in common
arrangements. During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Partnership sold its
interest in Duluth Joint Venture to an affiliate of the General Partners. In
addition, during 2000, the Partnership sold a Property in Lexington, North
Carolina and used the net sales proceeds to invest in a joint venture
arrangement, TGIF Pittsburgh Joint Venture, with affiliates of the General
Partners, to purchase and hold one Property. During the year ended December 31,
2001, the Partnership sold its Property in Greer, South Carolina and accepted a
promissory note in the principal sum of $467,000 which the Partnership collected
in its entirety during 2001. In addition, during 2001, the Partnership sold its
Properties in Woodland Hills and Altadena, California. The Partnership used the
net sales proceeds from the sales of these Properties, a portion of the net
sales from the sale of the Property in Greer, South Carolina, and a portion of
the amount received from the promissory note, to invest in a Property in Blue
Springs, Missouri with CNL Income Fund XIII, Ltd., an affiliate of the General
Partners as tenants-in-common and to invest in a Property in Houston, Texas. In
addition, during 2001, Wood-Ridge Real Estate Joint Venture, in which the
Partnership owns a 50% interest, sold its Property in Paris, Texas. The
Partnership and the other joint venture partner each received $400,000
representing a return of capital from the net sales proceeds and used the
proceeds to invest in a joint venture arrangement, CNL VII, XV Columbus Joint
Venture, with an affiliate of the General Partners to construct and hold one
Property. During 2002, the Partnership sold its Properties in Redlands,
California, Medina, Ohio, and Stratford, New Jersey. The Property in Stratford,
New Jersey consisted of land only. The Partnership reinvested the net sales
proceeds from the sale of the Property in Redlands, California in a Property in
Houston, Texas. The Partnership intends to reinvest the proceeds from the sale
of the Properties in Medina, Ohio and Stratford, New Jersey in an additional
Property.
As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned 36 Properties directly,
which included 13 wholly owned Properties consisting of only land, and held
interests in seven Properties owned by joint ventures in which the Partnership
is a co-venturer and three Properties owned with affiliates as
tenants-in-common. Generally, the Properties are leased on a triple-net basis
with the lessees responsible for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes,
insurance and utilities.
The Partnership holds its Properties until the General Partners
determine that the sale or other disposition of the Properties is advantageous
in view of the Partnership's investment objectives. In deciding whether to sell
Properties, the General Partners consider factors such as potential capital
appreciation, net cash flow and federal income tax considerations. Certain
lessees also have been granted options to purchase Properties, generally at the
Property's then fair market value after a specified portion of the lease term
has elapsed. The Partnership has no obligation to sell all or any portion of a
Property at any particular time, except as may be required under property
purchase options granted to certain lessees.
Leases
Although there are variations in the specific terms of the leases, the
following is a summarized description of the general structure of the
Partnership's leases. The leases of the Properties owned by the Partnership, the
joint ventures, in which the Partnership is a co-venturer and the Properties
owned with affiliates as tenants-in-common, provide for initial terms ranging
from 10 to 20 years (the average being 18 years) and expire between 2009 and
2022. Generally, the leases are on a triple-net basis, with the lessees
responsible for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and
utilities. The leases of the Properties provide for minimum base annual rental
payments (payable in monthly installments) ranging from approximately $25,200 to
$259,900. The majority of the leases provide for percentage rent, based on sales
in excess of a specified amount. In addition, the majority of the leases provide
that, commencing in specified lease years (generally the third or sixth lease
year), the annual base rent required under the terms of the lease will increase.
Generally, the leases of the Properties provide for two to five
five-year renewal options subject to the same terms and conditions as the
initial lease. Lessees of 39 of the Partnership's 46 Properties also have been
granted options to purchase Properties at the Property's then fair market value
after a specified portion of the lease term has elapsed. Fair market value will
be determined through an appraisal by an independent appraisal firm. Under the
terms of certain leases, the option purchase price may equal the Partnership's
original cost to purchase the Property (including acquisition costs), plus a
specified percentage from the date of the lease or a specified percentage of the
Partnership's purchase price, if that amount is greater than the Property's fair
market value at the time the purchase option is exercised.
The leases for the 13 wholly owned Properties consisting of only land
are substantially the same as those described above except that the leases
relate solely to the land associated with the Property, with the tenant owning
the buildings currently on the land and having the right, if not in default
under the lease, to remove the buildings from the land at the end of the lease
term.
The leases generally provide that, in the event the Partnership wishes
to sell the Property subject to that lease, the Partnership must first offer the
lessee the right to purchase the Property on the same terms and conditions, and
for the same price, as any offer which the Partnership has received for the sale
of the Property.
During 2002, the Partnership reinvested the net sales proceeds from the
sale of its Property in Redlands, California in a Property in Houston, Texas.
The lease terms for this Property are substantially the same as the
Partnership's other leases, as described above.
During 2001, Phoenix Restaurant Group, Inc. ("PRG") filed for
bankruptcy and neither rejected, nor affirmed the lease relating to the Property
in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. During 2002, the bankruptcy court assigned the lease
relating to this Property to SWAC, LLC. All other lease terms remained the same.
Major Tenants
During 2002, three lessees of the Partnership, Flagstar Enterprises,
Inc., Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc., and Golden Corral Corporation, each
contributed more than 10% of the Partnership's total rental revenues (including
the Partnership's share of rental revenues from Properties owned by joint
ventures and Properties owned with affiliates as tenants-in-common). As of
December 31, 2002, Flagstar Enterprises, Inc. was the lessee under leases
relating to seven restaurants, Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc. was the
lessee under leases relating to 13 restaurants and Golden Corral Corporation was
the lessee under leases relating to five restaurants. It is anticipated that,
based on the minimum rental payments required by the leases, these three lessees
each will continue to contribute more than 10% of the Partnership's total rental
revenues in 2003. In addition, four Restaurant Chains, Hardee's, Checker's, Long
John Silver's, and Golden Corral, each accounted for more than 10% of the
Partnership's total rental revenues during 2002 (including the Partnership's
share of rental revenues from Properties owned by joint ventures and Properties
owned with affiliates as tenants-in-common). In 2003, it is anticipated that
these four Restaurant chains each will continue to account for more than 10% of
the total rental revenues to which the Partnership is entitled under the terms
of the leases. Any failure of these lessees or Restaurant Chains will materially
affect the Partnership's income if the Partnership is not able to re-lease the
Properties in a timely manner. No single tenant or group of affiliated tenants
lease Properties with an aggregate carrying value in excess of 20% of the total
assets of the Partnership.
Joint Venture and Tenancy in Common Arrangements
The Partnership has entered into the following joint venture and
tenancy in common arrangements as of December 31, 2002:

Venture
Wood-Ridge Real Estate Joint Venture holds five Properties, however,
all other joint ventures or tenancies in common were formed to hold one
Property. Each CNL Income Fund is an affiliate of the General Partners and is a
limited partnership organized pursuant to the laws of the state of Florida. The
Partnership shares management control equally with the affiliates of the General
Partners
The joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements provide for the
Partnership and its joint venture or tenancy in common partners to share in all
costs and benefits in proportion to each partner's percentage interest in the
business entity. The Partnership and its partners are also jointly and severally
liable for all debts, obligations and other liabilities of the joint venture or
tenancy in common. Net cash flow from operations is distributed to each joint
venture or tenancy in common partner in accordance with its respective
percentage interest in the business entity.
Each joint venture has an initial term of 30 years and, after the
expiration of the initial term, continues in existence from year to year unless
terminated at the option of either joint venturer by an event of dissolution.
Events of dissolution include the bankruptcy, insolvency or termination of any
joint venturer, sale of the Property owned by the joint venture and mutual
agreement of the Partnership and its joint venture partner to dissolve the joint
venture. Any liquidation proceeds, after paying joint venture debts and
liabilities and funding reserves for contingent liabilities, will be distributed
first to the joint venture partners with positive capital account balances in
proportion to such balances until such balances equal zero, and thereafter in
proportion to each joint venture partner's percentage interest in the joint
venture.
The joint venture and tenancy in common agreements restrict each
party's ability to sell, transfer or assign its joint venture or tenancy in
common interest without first offering it for sale to its partner, either upon
such terms and conditions as to which the parties may agree or, in the event the
parties cannot agree, on the same terms and conditions as any offer from a third
party to purchase such joint venture or tenancy in common interest.
The use of joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements allows the
Partnership to fully invest its available funds at times at which it would not
have sufficient funds to purchase an additional property, or at times when a
suitable opportunity to purchase an additional property is not available. The
use of joint venture and tenancy in common arrangements also provides the
Partnership with increased diversification of its portfolio among a greater
number of properties. In addition, tenancy in common arrangements may allow the
Partnership to defer the gain for federal income tax purposes upon the sale of
the property if the proceeds are reinvested in an additional property.
Certain Management Services
RAI Restaurants, Inc. (formerly known as CNL Restaurants XVIII, Inc.),
an affiliate of the General Partners, provides certain services relating to
management of the Partnership and its Properties pursuant to a management
agreement with the Partnership. CNL APF Partners, LP assigned its rights in, and
its obligations under, the management agreement with the Partnership to RAI
Restaurants, Inc. ("the Advisor") effective January 1, 2002. All of the terms
and conditions of the management agreement, including the payment of fees,
remained unchanged. Under this agreement, the Advisor is responsible for
collecting rental payments, inspecting the Properties and the tenants' books and
records, assisting the Partnership in responding to tenant inquiries and
notices, and providing information to the Partnership about the status of the
leases and the Properties. The Advisor also assists the General Partners in
negotiating the leases. For these services, the Partnership had agreed to pay
the Advisor an annual fee of one percent of the sum of gross rental revenues
from Properties wholly owned by the Partnership plus the Partnership's allocable
share of gross revenues of joint ventures in which the Partnership is a
co-venturer, but not in excess of competitive fees for comparable services.
The management agreement continues until the Partnership no longer owns
an interest in any Properties unless terminated at an earlier date upon 60 days'
prior notice by either party.
Competition
The fast-food and family-style restaurant business is characterized by
intense competition. The restaurants on the Partnership's Properties compete
with independently owned restaurants, restaurants which are part of local or
regional chains, and restaurants in other well-known national chains, including
those offering different types of food and service.
Employees
The Partnership has no employees. The officers of CNL Realty
Corporation and the officers and employees of CNL American Properties Fund, Inc.
("APF"), the parent company of the Advisor, perform certain services for the
Partnership. In addition, the General Partners have available to them the
resources and expertise of the officers and employees of CNL Financial Group,
Inc., a diversified real estate company, and its affiliates, who may also
perform certain services for the Partnership.
Item 2. Properties
As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned 46 Properties. Of the 46
Properties, 36 are owned by the Partnership in fee simple, seven are owned
indirectly through three joint venture arrangements and three are owned
indirectly through tenancy in common arrangements. See Item 1. Business - Joint
Venture and Tenancy in Common Arrangements. The Partnership is not permitted to
encumber its Properties under the terms of its partnership agreement. Reference
is made to the Schedule of Real Estate and Accumulated Depreciation for a
listing of the Properties and their respective costs, including acquisition fees
and certain acquisition expenses.
Description of Properties
Land. The Partnership's Property sites range from approximately 15,600
to 137,700 square feet depending upon building size and local demographic
factors. Sites purchased by the Partnership are in locations zoned for
commercial use which have been reviewed for traffic patterns and volume.
The following table lists the Properties owned, either directly or
indirectly, by the Partnership as of December 31, 2002 by state. More detailed

Buildings. Each of the Properties owned, either directly or indirectly,
by the Partnership includes a building that is one of a Restaurant Chain's
approved designs. However, the buildings located on the 13 Checkers Properties
owned by the Partnership are owned by the tenants. The buildings generally are
rectangular and are constructed from various combinations of stucco, steel,
wood, brick and tile. The sizes of the buildings owned by the Partnership range
from approximately 2,100 to 11,000 square feet. All buildings on the Properties
are freestanding and surrounded by paved parking areas. Buildings are suitable
for conversion to various uses, although modifications may be required prior to
use for other than restaurant operations. Depreciation expense is computed for
buildings and improvements using the straight-line method using depreciable
lives of 40 years for federal income tax purposes.
As of December 31, 2002, the aggregate cost of the Properties owned,
either directly or indirectly, by the Partnership and joint ventures (including
the Properties owned indirectly through tenancy in common arrangements) for
federal income tax purposes was $28,871,382 and $12,091,259, respectively.

The General Partners consider the Properties to be well-maintained and
sufficient for the Partnership's operations.
The General Partners believe that the Properties are adequately covered
by insurance. In addition, the General Partners have obtained contingent
liability and property coverage for the Partnership. This insurance is intended
to reduce the Partnership's exposure in the unlikely event a tenant's insurance
policy lapses or is insufficient to cover a claim relating to the Property.
Leases. The Partnership leases the Properties to operators of selected
national and regional fast-food restaurant chains. The leases are generally on a
long-term "triple net" basis, meaning that the tenant is responsible for
repairs, maintenance, property taxes, utilities and insurance.
At December 31, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Properties were
100%, 98%, 92%, 98% and 88% occupied, respectively. The following is a schedule

PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
(a) As of March 10, 2003 there were 2,700 holders of record of the
Units. There is no public trading market for the Units, and it is not
anticipated that a public market for the Units will develop. During 2002,
Limited Partners who wished to sell their Units may have offered the Units for
sale pursuant to the Partnership's distribution reinvestment plan (the "Plan"),
and Limited Partners who wished to have their distributions used to acquire
additional Units (to the extent Units were available for purchase), may have
done so pursuant to such Plan. The General Partners have the right to prohibit
transfers of Units. From inception through December 31, 2002, the price paid for
any Unit transferred pursuant to the Plan ranged from $8.29 to $9.50 per Unit.
The price paid for any Unit transferred other than pursuant to the Plan was
subject to negotiation by the purchaser and the selling Limited Partner. The
Partnership will not redeem or repurchase Units.
The following table reflects, for each calendar quarter, the high, low
and average sales prices for transfers of Units during 2002 and 2001 other than
pursuant to the Plan, net of commissions.

distributions of $3,300,000 to the Limited Partners. For the year ended December
31, 2001, the Partnership declared cash distributions of $3,200,000.
Distributions for the year ended December 31, 2002, included a special
distribution of $100,000 representing cumulative excess operating reserves.
Distributions of $800,000 were declared to the Limited Partners at the close of
each of the Partnership's calendar quarters during 2002 and 2001. These amounts
include monthly distributions made in arrears for the Limited Partners electing
to receive such distributions on this basis. No amounts distributed to the
Limited Partners for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, are required to
be or have been treated by the Partnership as a return of capital for purposes
of calculating the Limited Partners' return on their adjusted capital
contributions. No distributions have been made to the General Partners to date.
As indicated in the chart below, distributions were declared at the
close of each of the Partnership's calendar quarters. These amounts include

identified for sale as of December 31, 2001, but sold subsequently are
reported as continuing operations.
The above selected financial data should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and related notes contained in Item 8 hereof.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The Partnership was organized on September 2, 1993, to acquire for
cash, either directly or through joint venture arrangements, both newly
constructed and existing restaurant Properties, as well as land upon which
restaurant Properties were to be constructed, to be leased primarily to
operators of selected national and regional fast-food and family-style
Restaurant Chains. The leases are generally triple-net leases, with the lessees
responsible for all repairs and maintenance, property taxes, insurance and
utilities. The leases of the Properties provide for minimum base annual rental
amounts (payable in monthly installments) ranging from approximately $25,200 to
$259,900. Generally, the leases provide for percentage rent based on sales in
excess of a specified amount. In addition, a majority of the leases provide
that, commencing in specified lease years (ranging from the third to the sixth
lease year), the annual base rent required under the terms of the lease will
increase. As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership owned 40 Properties directly
and ten Properties indirectly through joint venture or tenancy in common
arrangements. As of December 31, 2001, the Partnership owned 38 Properties
directly and ten Properties indirectly through joint venture or tenancy in
common arrangements. As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned 36
Properties directly and ten Properties indirectly through joint venture and
tenancy in common arrangements.
Capital Resources
Cash from operating activities was $3,355,765, $3,097,228, and
$3,325,920, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The increase in cash from operating activities during 2002, as compared to 2001,
was a result of changes in income and expenses and changes in the Partnership's
working capital. The decrease in cash from operating activities during 2001 as
compared to the previous year was the result of changes in income and expenses.
Other sources and uses of cash included the following during the years
ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.
During 2000, the Partnership contributed $252,591 to Duluth Joint
Venture to pay for construction costs. In October 2000, the Partnership sold its
33% interest in Duluth Joint Venture, to CNL Income Fund VII, Ltd. for $610,032.
The proceeds from the sale exceeded the basis of the interest in this joint
venture resulting in a gain of $38,003.
The Partnership committed to fund up to $749,500 for renovation costs
for the Property in Mentor, Ohio upon re-leasing the Property to a new tenant in
1999. All of the renovation costs were incurred and paid during 2000.
In January 2000, the Partnership sold its Property in Lexington, North
Carolina, and received net sales proceeds of $562,130, resulting in a loss of
$88,869, which the Partnership recorded at December 31, 1999. In June 2000, the
Partnership used the net sales proceeds received from the sale of this Property
to enter into a joint venture arrangement, TGIF Pittsburgh Joint Venture, with
CNL Income Fund VII, Ltd., CNL Income Fund XVI, Ltd., and CNL Income Fund XVIII,
Ltd., each a Florida limited partnership and an affiliate of the General
Partners, to purchase and hold one restaurant Property in Homestead,
Pennsylvania. As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned a 23.62% interest
in the profits and losses of the joint venture.
In April 2001, the Partnership sold its Property in Greer, South
Carolina and received net sales proceeds of $700,000 (consisting of $233,000 in
cash and $467,000 in the form of a promissory note), resulting in a loss of
$288,684, which the Partnership had recorded as a provision for write-down of
assets at March 31, 2001. The promissory note, collateralized by a mortgage on
the Property, bore interest at a rate of 10% per annum. The Partnership
collected the outstanding principal and interest during 2001. In addition, in
April 2001, the Partnership sold its Property in Woodland Hills, California to a
third party and received net sales proceeds of approximately $1,253,700,
resulting in a gain of approximately $246,700. In April 2001, the Partnership
reinvested the net sales proceeds from the sale of these Properties in a
Property in Blue Springs, Missouri, as tenants-in-common with CNL Income Fund
XIII, Ltd., ("CNL XIII") a Florida limited partnership and an affiliate of the
General Partners. The Partnership and CNL XIII, as tenants-in-common, acquired
this Property from CNL BB Corp., an affiliate of the General Partners. The
affiliate had purchased and temporarily held title to the Property in order to
facilitate the acquisition of the Property by the Partnership and CNL XIII, as
tenants-in-common. The purchase price paid by the Partnership and CNL XIII, as
tenants-in-common, represented the costs incurred by the affiliate to acquire
and carry the Property. As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership had contributed
approximately $1,269,700 and owned a 59% interest in the profits and losses of
the Property. The transaction relating to the sale of the Property in Woodland
Hills, California and the reinvestment of the net sales proceeds was structured
to qualify as a like-kind exchange transaction for federal income tax purposes.
In May 2001, Wood-Ridge Real Estate Joint Venture, in which the
Partnership owns a 50% interest, sold its Property in Paris, Texas to the tenant
for $800,000, in accordance with the purchase option under the lease agreement.
The sale resulted in a loss to the joint venture of approximately $84,500. In
connection with the sale, the joint venture received $200,000 in lease
termination income in consideration for the joint venture releasing the tenant
from its obligations under the lease. As of December 31, 2001, the Partnership
and the other joint venture partner had each received approximately $400,000
representing a return of capital from the net sales proceeds.
In August 2001, the Partnership used a portion of the amounts received
as a return of capital, as described above, to enter into a joint venture
arrangement, CNL VII, XV Columbus Joint Venture, with CNL Income Fund VII, Ltd.,
a Florida limited partnership and affiliate of the General Partners, to
construct one restaurant Property in Columbus, Georgia. As of December 31, 2001,
the Partnership had contributed approximately $466,100 to purchase land and pay
for its share of construction costs relating to the joint venture and
contributed approximately $34,900 during 2002 to complete the construction. As
of December 31, 2002, the Partnership owned a 31.25% interest in the profits and
losses of the joint venture.
In October 2001, the Partnership sold its Property in Altadena,
California to a third party and received net sales proceeds of approximately
$937,300, resulting in a gain of approximately $172,100. In December 2001, the
Partnership reinvested the net sales proceeds received from this sale and a
portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Property in Greer, South Carolina
in a Property in Houston, Texas. The Partnership acquired this Property from CNL
Funding 2001-A, LP, an affiliate of the General Partners. The transaction, or a
portion thereof, relating to the sale of the Property and the reinvestment of
the proceeds, qualified as a like-kind exchange transaction for federal income
tax purposes.
During 2002, the Partnership sold its Properties in Redlands,
California, Medina, Ohio and Stratford, New Jersey to separate third parties and
received aggregate net sales proceeds of $2,046,900 resulting in an aggregate
gain on disposal of discontinued operations of $304,600. The Property in
Stratford, New Jersey consisted of land only. The Partnership had recorded a
provision for write-down of assets in the amount of $394,474 related to the
Property in Medina, Ohio during 2000 because the tenant of the Property filed
for bankruptcy and rejected its lease in 1998. The Partnership reinvested the
proceeds from the sale of the Property in Redlands, California in a Property in
Houston, Texas. The Partnership acquired this Property from CNL Funding 2001-A,
LP, a Delaware limited partnership and an affiliate of the General Partners. The
purchase price paid by the Partnership represented the costs incurred by CNL
Funding 2001-A, LP to acquire and carry the Property. The transaction relating
the sale of the Property and the reinvestment of the net sales proceeds was
structured to qualify as a like-kind exchange transaction for federal income tax
purposes. The Partnership intends to use the proceeds from the sale of the other
Properties to invest in additional Properties.
None of the Properties owned by the Partnership, or the joint ventures
or tenancy in common arrangements in which the Partnership owns an interest, is
or may be encumbered. Subject to certain restrictions on borrowing, however, the
Partnership may borrow funds but will not encumber any of the Properties in
connection with any such borrowing. The Partnership will not borrow for the
purpose of returning capital to the Limited Partners. The Partnership will not
borrow under arrangements that would make the Limited Partners liable to
creditors of the Partnership. The General Partners further have represented that
they will use their reasonable efforts to structure any borrowing so that it
will not constitute "acquisition indebtedness" for federal income tax purposes
and also will limit the Partnership's outstanding indebtedness to 3% of the
aggregate adjusted tax basis of its Properties. Affiliates of the General
Partners from time to time incur certain operating expenses on behalf of the
Partnership for which the Partnership reimburses the affiliates without
interest.
Currently, cash reserves, rental income from the Partnership's
Properties and any net sales proceeds from the sale of Properties, are invested
in money market accounts or other short-term, highly liquid investments such as
demand deposit accounts at commercial banks, money market accounts and
certificates of deposit with less than a 90-day maturity date, pending the
Partnership's use of such funds to pay Partnership expenses, make distributions
to partners or reinvest in additional Properties. At December 31, 2002, the
Partnership had $2,317,004 invested in such short-term investments as compared
to $1,364,847 at December 31, 2001. The increase in cash and cash equivalents
was because as of December 31, 2002 the Partnership had not reinvested the net
sales proceeds received from the sales of the Properties in Medina, Ohio and
Stratford, New Jersey. As of December 31, 2002, the average interest rate earned
on the rental income deposited in demand deposit accounts at commercial banks
was approximately one percent annually. The funds remaining at December 31,
2002, after investment in additional Properties and payment of distributions and
other liabilities, will be used to meet the Partnership's working capital needs.
Short-Term Liquidity
The Partnership's investment strategy of acquiring Properties for cash
and leasing them under triple-net leases to operators who generally meet
specified financial standards minimizes the Partnership's operating expenses.
The General Partners believe that the leases will continue to generate cash flow
in excess of operating expenses.
The Partnership's short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily
of the operating expenses of the Partnership.
The General Partners have the right, but not the obligation, to make
additional capital contributions if they deem it appropriate in connection with
the operations of the Partnership.
Due to low operating expenses and ongoing cash flow, the General
Partners believe that the Partnership has sufficient working capital reserves at
this time. In addition, because substantially all leases of the Partnership's
Properties are on a triple-net basis, it is not anticipated that a permanent
reserve for maintenance and repairs will be established at this time. To the
extent, however, that the Partnership has insufficient funds for such purposes,
the General Partners will contribute to the Partnership an aggregate amount of
up to one percent of the offering proceeds for maintenance and repairs. The
General Partners have the right to cause the Partnership to maintain additional
reserves if, in their discretion, they determine such reserves are required to
meet the Partnership's working capital needs.
The Partnership generally distributes cash from operations remaining
after the payment of the operating expenses of the Partnership, to the extent
that the General Partners determine that such funds are available for
distribution. Based primarily on current and anticipated future cash from
operating activities, the Partnership declared distributions to the Limited
Partners of $3,300,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002 and $3,200,000 for
the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000. This represents distributions of
$0.83 for the year ended December 31, 2002 and $0.80 for each of the years ended
December 31, 2001 and 2000. No distributions were made to the General Partners
for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. No amounts distributed to
the Limited Partners for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 or 2000 are
required to be or have been treated by the Partnership as a return of capital
for purposes of calculating the Limited Partners' return on their adjusted
capital contributions. The Partnership intends to continue to make distributions
of cash available for distribution to the Limited Partners on a quarterly basis.
During 2000, the General Partners waived their right to receive future
distributions from the Partnership, including both distributions of operating
cash flow and distributions of liquidation proceeds, to the extent that the
cumulative amount of such distributions would exceed the balance in the General
Partners' capital account as of December 31, 1999. Accordingly, the General
Partners were not allocated any net income and did not receive any distributions
during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.
As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership owed $20,605 and
$20,970, respectively, to related parties for accounting and administrative
services and management fees. As of March 15, 2003, the Partnership had
reimbursed the affiliates for these amounts. Other liabilities, including
distributions payable, increased to $1,072,291 at December 31, 2002, from
$910,747 at December 31, 2001 primarily as a result of an increase in rents paid
in advance and deposits. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in real
estate taxes payable and deferred rental income during 2002 as compared to 2001.
The General Partners believe that the Partnership has sufficient cash on hand to
meet its current working capital needs.
Long-Term Liquidity
The Partnership has no long-term debt or other long-term liquidity
requirements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Partnership's leases are accounted for under the provisions of
Statement of Accounting Standard No. 13, "Accounting for Leases" ("FAS 13"), and
have been accounted for using either the direct financing or the operating
method. FAS 13 requires management to estimate the economic life of the leased
property, the residual value of the leased property and the present value of
minimum lease payments to be received from the tenant. In addition, management
assumes that all payments to be received under its leases are collectible.
Changes in management's estimates or assumption regarding collectibility of
lease payments could result in a change in accounting for the lease at the
inception of the lease.
The Partnership accounts for its unconsolidated joint ventures using
the equity method of accounting. Under generally accepted accounting principles,
the equity method of accounting is appropriate for entities that are partially
owned by the Partnership, but for which operations of the investee are shared
with other partners. The Partnership's joint venture agreements require the
consent of all partners on all key decisions affecting the operations of the
underlying Property.
Management reviews the Partnership's Properties and investments in
unconsolidated entities periodically for impairment at least once a year or
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
an asset may not be recoverable. The assessment is based on the carrying amount
of the Property or investment at the date it is tested for recoverability
compared to the sum of the estimated future cash flows expected to result from
its operation and sale through the expected holding period. If an impairment is
indicated, the asset is adjusted to its estimated fair value.
When the Partnership makes the decision to sell or commits to a plan to
sell a Property within one year, its operating results are reported as
discontinued operations.
Results of Operations
Comparison of year ended December 31, 2002 to year ended December 31, 2001
Total rental revenues were $3,048,101 during the year ended December
31, 2002 as compared to $2,887,160 for the same period of 2001. The increase in
rental revenues during 2002, as compared to the same period of 2001, was
partially due to the fact that in December 2001 the Partnership used a portion
of the sales proceeds from the sale of the Partnership's Property in Greer,
South Carolina and the majority of the sales proceeds from the sale of the
Partnership's Property in Altadena, California to acquire a Property in Houston,
Texas. In addition, the increase in revenues during 2002 was also partially due
to the Partnership receiving approximately $87,500 of rental payments related to
the Property in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. During 2000, Phoenix Restaurant Group,
Inc. ("PRG"), the tenant of this Property, experienced financial difficulties
and ceased payment of rent. As a result, the Partnership stopped recording
rental revenues during the quarter ended March 31, 2001. In October 2001, PRG
filed for bankruptcy and resumed payment of rent to the Partnership from the
bankruptcy date through April 30, 2002. The Partnership re-leased this Property
to a new tenant in May 2002. In addition, revenues increased during 2002 because
in June 2002 the Partnership used the majority of the proceeds from the sale of
the Property in Redlands, California to acquire another Property in Houston,
Texas. The increase in rental revenues during 2002 was partially offset by the
fact that the Partnership sold three Properties during 2001.
The Partnership also earned $39,211 in contingent rental income for the
year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to $23,529 for the same period of 2001.
The increase in contingent rental income was the result of increased gross sales
reported by certain restaurant Properties, the leases of which require the
payment of contingent rent.
During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Partnership earned
$442,344 in net income earned by unconsolidated joint ventures as compared to
$435,249 for the same period of 2001. The increase in net income earned by joint
ventures was due to the fact that during 2001, the Partnership invested in a
Property in Blue Springs, Missouri with CNL Income Fund XIII, Ltd. as
tenants-in-common, and in a joint venture arrangement, CNL VII, XV Columbus
Joint Venture, with CNL Income Fund VII, Ltd. Each of the CNL Income Funds is a
Florida limited partnership and an affiliate of the General Partners. The
increase in net income earned by joint ventures during 2002, as compared to the
previous year was partially offset by the fact that in May 2001, Wood-Ridge Real
Estate Joint Venture, in which the Partnership owns a 50% interest, sold its
Property in Paris, Texas in accordance with the purchase option under the lease
agreement. During 2001, the joint venture distributed the net sales proceeds
received from the sale as a return of capital to the Partnership and the other
joint venture partner. During 2002, the Partnership reinvested these net sales
proceeds in a joint venture arrangement, CNL VII, XV Columbus Joint Venture,
with an affiliate of the General Partners as described below.
During the year ended December 31, 2002, three lessees of the
Partnership, Flagstar Enterprises, Inc., Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc.,
and Golden Corral Corporation, each contributed more than 10% of the
Partnership's total rental revenues (including the Partnership's share of rental
revenues from Properties owned by joint ventures and Properties owned with
affiliates of the General Partners as tenants-in-common). As of December 31,
2002, Flagstar Enterprises, Inc. was the lessee under leases relating to seven
restaurants, Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc. was the lessee under leases
relating to 13 restaurants, and Golden Corral Corporation was lessee under
leases relating to five restaurants. It is anticipated that, based on the
minimum rental payments required by the leases, these three lessees each will
continue to contribute more than 10% of the Partnership's total rental revenues
in 2003. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2002, four Restaurant
Chains, Hardee's, Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Long John Silver's, and Golden
Corral each accounted for more than 10% of the Partnership's total rental
revenues (including the Partnership's share of rental revenues from Properties
owned by joint ventures and Properties owned with affiliates of the General
Partners as tenants-in-common). In 2003, it is anticipated that these four
Restaurant Chains each will continue to account for more than 10% of the total
rental revenues to which the Partnership is entitled under the terms of the
leases. Any failure of these lessees or Restaurant Chains will materially affect
the Partnership's income if the Partnership is not able to re-lease the
Properties in a timely manner.
During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Partnership also earned
$15,178 as compared to $79,313 for the same period of 2001 in interest and other
income. Interest and other income were lower during 2002 due to a decrease in
the average cash balance as a result of the reinvestment of sales proceeds
received in 2001 and due to a decline in interest rates.
Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense and
provision for write-down of assets, were $845,717 for the year ended December
31, 2002 as compared to $1,309,528 for the same period of 2001. Operating
expenses were higher during 2001 as a result of the Partnership recording a
provision for write-down of assets in the amount of $288,684 relating to the
Property in Greer, South Carolina. The provision represented the difference
between the carrying value of the Property and its estimated fair value. In
addition, during 2001, the Partnership recorded a provision for write-down of
assets of $223,839 related to the Property in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. During
2001, the Partnership also recorded bad debt expense of approximately $46,900
relating to this Property. The tenant of the Property, Phoenix Restaurant Group,
Inc., experienced financial difficulty and filed for bankruptcy during 2001. The
Partnership re-leased this Property to a new tenant in May 2002 and sold the
Property in Greer, South Carolina in 2001.
The decrease in operating expenses during 2002, as compared to the same
period of 2001, was also attributable to a decrease in the costs incurred for
administrative expenses for servicing the Partnership and its Properties and due
to a decrease in state tax expense. The decrease in operating expenses during
2002 was partially offset because the Partnership increased the provision for
write-down of assets relating to the Property in Bartlesville, Oklahoma by
$129,598. The provision represented the difference between the carrying value of
the Property at December 31, 2002 and its estimated fair value.
Effective January 1, 2002, the Partnership adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement requires that a long-lived asset
be tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of
a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the
asset. The assessment is based on the carrying amount of the asset at the date
it is tested for recoverability. An impairment loss is recognized when the
carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. If an impairment
is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of a long-lived asset is its new
cost basis. The statement also requires that the results of operations of a
component of an entity that either has been disposed of or is classified as held
for sale be reported as a discontinued operation if the disposal activity was
initiated subsequent to the adoption of the Standard.
During 2002, the Partnership identified and sold three Properties that
met the criteria of this standard and were classified as Discontinued Operations
in the accompanying financial statements. During 2000, the Partnership recorded
a provision for write-down of assets in the amount of $394,474 related to the
Property in Medina, Ohio because during 1998 the tenant of the Property filed
for bankruptcy and rejected its lease. The provision represented the difference
between the carrying value of the Property at December 31, 2000 and its
estimated fair value. During 2002, the Partnership recognized a gain of
approximately $306,200 on the sale of the Properties in Redlands, California and
Stratford, New Jersey, and a loss of approximately $1,600 on the sale of the
Property in Medina, Ohio. The Partnership reinvested the proceeds from the sale
of one Property in an additional Property and intends to reinvest the proceeds
from the other Properties during 2003.
Comparison of year ended December 31, 2001 to year ended December 31, 2000
Total rental revenues were $2,887,160 during the year ended December
31, 2001 as compared to $3,097,681 for the same period of 2000. The decrease in
rental revenues during 2001, as compared to 2000, was partially due to the fact
that the Partnership sold its Properties in Greer, South Carolina, and Woodland
Hills and Altadena, California during 2001. The Partnership reinvested the
proceeds from the sale of these Properties in a Property in Blue Springs,
Missouri, as tenants-in-common with an affiliate of the General Partners and in
a joint venture arrangement, CNL VII, XV Columbus Joint Venture with an
affiliate of the General Partners. As a result of this reinvestment, rental
revenues will remain at reduced amounts while equity in earnings of joint
ventures has increased. Rental revenues were also higher in 2000 because the
Partnership received approximately $99,100 in bankruptcy proceeds in connection
with the bankruptcy filing by Long John Silver's, Inc. in 1998.
In addition, rental revenues decreased during 2001 as compared to 2000,
due to the fact that PRG, the tenant of the Property in Bartlesville, Oklahoma,
experienced financial difficulties during 2000, ceased making rental payments to
the Partnership, and filed for bankruptcy in October 2001. As a result, the
Partnership stopped recording rental revenue relating to this Property. The
Partnership re-leased this Property to a new tenant in May 2002.
The Partnership also earned $23,529 in contingent rental income for the
year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to $28,165 for the same period of 2000.
Contingent rental income decreased during 2001 primarily as a result of a
decrease in gross sales of certain restaurant Properties that are subject to
leases requiring the payment of contingent rent.
During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Partnership earned
$435,249 in net income earned by unconsolidated joint ventures as compared to
$296,929 for the same period of 2000. The increase in net income earned by joint
ventures during 2001 was primarily attributable to the Partnership investing in
a Property in Blue Springs, Missouri in April 2001, with an affiliate of the
General Partners, and in a Property in Homestead, Pennsylvania in June 2000,
with an affiliate of the General Partners. The increase in net income earned by
joint ventures during 2001, as compared to 2000, was also partially attributable
to the Partnership investing in CNL VII, XV Columbus Joint Venture with an
affiliate of the General Partners in August 2001. The increase in net income was
partially offset because in May 2001, Wood-Ridge Real Estate Joint Venture, in
which the Partnership owns a 50% interest, sold its Property in Paris, Texas to
the tenant for $800,000. This resulted in a loss to the joint venture of
approximately $84,500. However, in conjunction with the sale of its Property in
Paris, Texas, Wood-Ridge Real Estate Joint Venture received $200,000 in
consideration for the joint venture releasing the tenant from its obligations
under the lease. As of December 31, 2001, the Partnership and the other joint
venture partner had each received $400,000 representing a return of capital from
the net sales proceeds. The Partnership used these proceeds to invest in a joint
venture arrangement, CNL VII, XV Columbus Joint Venture.
During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Partnership also earned
$79,313, as compared to $ 95,782 for the same period of 2000, in interest and
other income. The decrease in interest and other income during 2001, as compared
to 2000, was primarily attributable to the reinvestment of sales proceeds from
the sale of Properties during 2000. The decrease during 2001 was partially
offset by an increase in interest income related to the Partnership's sale of
its Property in Greer, South Carolina, for which the Partnership accepted a
promissory note.
Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense and
provision for write-down of assets were $1,309,528 for the year ended December
31, 2001 as compared to $712,129 for the same period of 2000. Operating expenses
were higher during 2001 as a result of the Partnership recording provisions for
write-down of assets relating to the Properties in Greer, South Carolina and
Bartlesville, Oklahoma, as described above. The provisions represented the
difference between the carrying value of the Properties and their estimated fair
values. During 2001, the Partnership also recorded bad debt expense of
approximately $46,900 relating to the Property in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, as
described above. The Partnership also incurred real estate taxes in connection
with this Property.
The increase in operating expenses during 2001 was also partially
attributable to an increase in the costs incurred for administrative expenses
for servicing the Partnership and its Properties. In addition, the increase in
operating expenses during 2001, as compared to 2000, was partially due to the
Partnership incurring additional state taxes in states in which the Partnership
conducts business. The increase in operating expenses during 2001, as compared
to 2000, was partially offset by a decrease in depreciation expense as a result
of the sales of several Properties during 2001 and 2000.
The Partnership incurred $45,089 during 2000 in transaction costs
related to the General Partners retaining financial and legal advisors to assist
them in evaluating and negotiating a proposed merger with APF. The merger
negotiations were terminated in March 2000.
As a result of the sales of several Properties, the Partnership
recognized gains totaling $418,754 during 2001 as compared to $38,003 resulting
from the sale of one Property in 2000.
The restaurant industry has been relatively resilient during this
volatile time with steady performance during 2002. However, the industry remains
in a state of cautious optimism. Restaurant operators expect their business to
be better in 2003, according to a nationwide survey conducted by the National
Restaurant Association, but are concerned by the budget deficits being
experienced by many states and the potential of new taxes on the industry to
alleviate the situation.
The Partnership's leases as of December 31, 2002, are generally
triple-net leases and contain provisions that the General Partners believe
mitigate the adverse effect of inflation. Such provisions include clauses
requiring the payment of percentage rent based on certain restaurant sales above
a specified level and/or automatic increases in base rent at specified times
during the term of the lease. Inflation, overall, has had a minimal effect on
results of operations of the Partnership. Continued inflation also may cause
capital appreciation of the Partnership's Properties. Inflation and changing
prices, however, also may have an adverse impact on the sales of the restaurants
and on potential capital appreciation of the Properties.
In January 2003, FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"),
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" to expand upon and strengthen
existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include the
assets, liabilities and activities of another entity in its financial
statements. To improve financial reporting by companies involved with variable
interest entities (more commonly referred to as special-purpose entities or
off-balance sheet structures), FIN 46 requires that a variable interest entity
be considered by a company if that company is subject to a majority risk of loss
from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority
of the entity's residual returns or both. Prior to FIN 46, a company generally
included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it
controlled the entity through voting interests. Consolidation of variable
interests entities will provide more complete information about the resources,
obligations, risks and opportunities of the consolidated company. The
consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest
entities created after January 31, 2003, and to older entities in the first
fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Management believes
adoption of this standard may result in either consolidation or additional
disclosure requirements with respect to the Partnership's unconsolidated joint
ventures or Properties held with affiliates of the General Partners as
tenants-in-common, which are currently accounted for under the equity method.
However, such consolidation is not expected to significantly impact the
Partnership's results of operations.

income, of partners' capital and of cash flows present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of CNL Income Fund XV, Ltd. (a Florida limited
partnership) at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement
schedules listed in the index appearing under item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in
all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in
conjunction with the related financial statements. These financial statements
and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Partnership's

our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(A Florida Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years Ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000
1. Significant Accounting Policies:
Organization and Nature of Business - CNL Income Fund XV, Ltd. (the
"Partnership") is a Florida limited partnership that was organized for
the purpose of acquiring both newly constructed and existing restaurant
properties, as well as properties upon which restaurants were to be
constructed, which are leased primarily to operators of national and
regional fast-food and family-style restaurant chains.
The general partners of the Partnership are CNL Realty Corporation (the
"Corporate General Partner"), James M. Seneff, Jr. and Robert A.
Bourne. Mr. Seneff and Mr. Bourne are also 50% shareholders of the
Corporate General Partner. The general partners have responsibility for
managing the day-to-day operations of the Partnership.
Real Estate and Lease Accounting - The Partnership records the
acquisitions of real estate properties at cost, including closing
costs. Real estate properties are leased to third parties generally on
a triple-net basis, whereby the tenant is responsible for all operating
expenses relating to the property, including property taxes, insurance,
maintenance and repairs. During the years ended December 31, 2002,
2001, and 2000 tenants paid directly to real estate taxing authorities
approximately $361,000, $342,500 and $321,700, respectively, in real
estate taxes in accordance with the terms of their triple net leases
with the Partnership.
The leases of the Partnership provide for base minimum annual rental
payments payable in monthly installments. In addition, certain leases
provide for contingent rental revenues based on the tenants' gross
sales in excess of a specified threshold. The Partnership defers
recognition of the contingent rental revenues until the defined
thresholds are met. The leases are accounted for using either the
direct financing or the operating methods. Such methods are described
below:
Direct financing method - Leases accounted for using the direct
financing method are recorded at their net investment (which at the
inception of the lease generally represents the cost of the asset).
Unearned income is deferred and amortized to income over the lease
terms so as to produce a constant periodical rate of return on the
Partnership's net investment in the leases. For the leases
classified as direct financing leases, the building portions of the
property leases are accounted for as direct financing leases while
a majority of the land portion of these leases are operating
leases.
Operating method - Land and building leases accounted for using the
operating method are recorded at cost, revenue is recognized as
rentals are earned and depreciation is charged to operations as
incurred. Buildings are depreciated on the straight-line method
over their estimated useful lives of 30 years. When scheduled
rentals vary during the lease term, income is recognized on a
straight-line basis so as to produce a constant periodic rent over
the lease term commencing on the date the property is placed in
service.
CNL INCOME FUND XV, LTD.
(A Florida Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
Years Ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000
1. Significant Accounting Policies - Continued:
Accrued rental income represents the aggregate amount of income
recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of scheduled rental
payments to date. In contrast, deferred rental income represents
the aggregate amount of scheduled rental payments to date
(including rental payments due during construction and prior to the
property being placed in service) in excess of income recognized on
a straight-line basis over the lease term commencing on the date
the property is placed in service
Substantially all leases are for 15 to 20 years and provide for minimum
and contingent rentals. The lease options generally allow tenants to
renew the leases for two to five successive five-year periods subject
to the same terms and conditions as the initial lease. Most leases also
allow the tenant to purchase the property at fair market value after a
specified portion of the lease has elapsed.
When the properties are sold, the related cost and accumulated
depreciation for operating leases and the net investment for direct
financing leases, plus any accrued rental income, are removed from the
accounts and gains or losses from sales are reflected in income. The
general partners of the Partnership review properties for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of the assets may not be recoverable through operations. The
general partners determine whether an impairment in value has occurred
by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, including
the residual value of the property, with the carrying cost of the
individual property. If an impairment is indicated, the assets are
adjusted to their estimated fair value.
When the collection of amounts recorded as rental or other income is
considered to be doubtful, a provision is made to increase the
allowance for doubtful accounts. If amounts are subsequently determined
to be uncollectible, the corresponding receivable and allowance for
doubtful accounts are decreased accordingly.
Investment in Joint Ventures - The Partnership accounts for its
interests in Wood-Ridge Real Estate Joint Venture, TGIF Pittsburgh
Joint Venture, CNL VII, XV Columbus Joint Venture, and properties in
Clinton, North Carolina, Fort Myers, Florida, and Blue Springs,
Missouri held as tenants-in-common with affiliates, using the equity
method since the joint venture agreement requires the consent of all
partners on all key decisions affecting the operations of the
underlying property.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Partnership considers all highly liquid
investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to
be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand
deposits at commercial banks and money market funds (some of which are
backed by government securities). Cash equivalents are stated at cost
plus accrued interest, which approximates market value.
Cash accounts maintained on behalf of the Partnership in demand
deposits at commercial banks and money market funds may exceed
federally insured levels; however, the Partnership has not experienced
any losses in such accounts.
Lease Costs - Other assets include lease incentive costs and brokerage
and legal fees associated with negotiating leases and are amortized
over the term of the new lease using the straight-line method.

(A Florida Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
Years Ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000
1. Significant Accounting Policies - Continued:
Income Taxes - Under Section 701 of the Internal Revenue Code, all
income, expenses and tax credit items flow through to the partners for
tax purposes. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is
provided in the accompanying financial statements. The Partnership is
subject to certain state taxes on its income and property.
Additionally, for tax purposes, syndication costs are included in
partnership equity and in the basis of each partner's investment. For
financial reporting purposes, syndication costs represent a reduction
of Partnership equity and a reduction in the basis of each partner's
investment.
Use of Estimates - The general partners of the Partnership have made a
number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets
and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
to prepare these financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. The more significant areas requiring
the use of management estimates relate to the allowance for doubtful
accounts and future cash flows associated with long-lived assets.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassification - Certain items in the prior years' financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to 2002 presentation,
including a change in presentation of the statement of cash flows from
the direct to the indirect method. These reclassifications had no
effect on total partners' capital, net income or cash flows.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 ("FAS 144") -
Effective January 1, 2002, the Partnership adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement requires that a
long-lived asset be tested for recoverability whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be
recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not
recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows
expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.
The assessment is based on the carrying amount of the asset at the date
it is tested for recoverability. An impairment loss is recognized when
the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. If an
impairment is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of a long-lived
asset is its new cost basis. The statement also requires that the
results of operations of a component of an entity that either has been
disposed of or is classified as held for sale be reported as a
discontinued operation if the disposal activity was initiated
subsequent to the adoption of the Standard.
FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46") - In January 2003, FASB issued
FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities" to expand upon and strengthen existing accounting
guidance that addresses when a company should include the assets,
liabilities and activities of another entity in its financial
statements. To improve financial reporting by companies involved with
variable interest entities (more commonly referred to as
special-purpose entities or off-balance sheet structures), FIN 46
requires that a variable interest entity be considered by a company if
that company is subject to a majority risk of loss from the variable
interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the
entity's residual returns or both. Prior to FIN 46, a company generally
included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only
if it controlled the entity through voting interests. Consolidation of
variable interests entities will provide more complete information
about the resources, obligations, risks and opportunities of the
consolidated company. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply
immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31,
2003, and to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. Management believes adoption of this
standard

may result in either consolidation or additional disclosure
requirements with respect to the Partnership's unconsolidated joint
ventures or properties held with affiliates of the general partners as
tenants-in-common, which are currently accounted for under the equity
method. However, such consolidation is not expected to significantly
impact the Partnership's results of operations.
