CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED PART I Item 1. Business. Corporate Property Associates 14 Incorporated ("CPA(R):14") is a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") that acquires and owns commercial properties leased to companies nationwide and internationally, primarily on a triple net basis. As of December 31, 2003, CPA(R):14's portfolio consisted of 157 properties leased to 71 tenants and totaling more than 24,133 thousand square feet. CPA(R):14's core investment strategy is to purchase and own properties leased to a variety of companies on a single tenant net lease basis. These leases generally place the economic burden of ownership on the tenant by requiring them to pay the costs of maintenance, insurance, taxes, structural repairs and other operating expenses. CPA(R):14 also generally includes in its leases: - clauses providing for mandated rent increases or periodic rent increases tied to increases in the consumer price index or other indices for the jurisdiction in which the property is located or, when appropriate, increases tied to the volume of sales at the property; - covenants restricting the activity of the tenant to reduce the risk of a change in credit quality; - indemnification of CPA(R):14 for environmental and other liabilities; and - when appropriate, guarantees from parent companies or other entities. CPA(R):14 was formed as a Maryland corporation on June 4, 1997. Between November 1997 and November 2001, CPA(R):14 sold a total of 65,794,280 shares of common stock for a total of $657,942,800 in gross offering proceeds. Through December 31, 2003, CPA(R):14 has also issued 147,550 shares ($1,475,500) through its dividend reinvestment plan. These proceeds are being combined with limited recourse mortgage debt to acquire a portfolio of properties. As a REIT, CPA(R):14 is not subject to federal income taxation as long as it satisfies certain requirements relating to the nature of its income, the level of its distributions and other factors. W. P. Carey & Co. LLC ("WPC"), CPA(R):14's advisor, provides both strategic and day-to-day management for CPA(R):14, including acquisition services, research, investment analysis, asset management, capital funding services, disposition of assets, investor relations and administrative services. WPC also provides office space and other facilities for CPA(R):14. WPC has dedicated senior executives in each area of its organization so that CPA(R):14 functions as a fully integrated operating company. CPA(R):14 pays asset management fees to WPC and pays certain transactional fees. CPA(R):14 also reimburses WPC for certain expenses. WPC also serves in this capacity for Carey Institutional Properties Incorporated, Corporate Property Associates 12 Incorporated, Corporate Property Associates 15 Incorporated and Corporate Property Associates 16 - Global Incorporated. WPC is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and Pacific Exchange under the symbol "WPC." CPA(R):14's principal executive offices are located at 50 Rockefeller Plaza, New York, NY 10020 and its telephone number is (212) 492-1100. As of December 31, 2003, CPA(R):14 had no employees. WPC employs 120 individuals who perform services for CPA(R):14. BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY CPA(R):14's objectives are to: - pay quarterly dividends at an increasing rate that for taxable shareholders are partially free from current taxation; - provide inflation protected income; - purchase and own a diversified portfolio of net-leased real estate that will increase in value; and - increase the value of its shares by increasing the equity in its real estate by making regular mortgage principal payments. CPA(R):14 seeks to achieve these objectives by purchasing and holding industrial and commercial properties each net leased to a single corporate tenant. CPA(R):14's portfolio is diversified by geography, property type and by tenant. -1- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED ACQUISITION STRATEGIES WPC has a well-developed process with established procedures and systems for acquiring net leased property on behalf of CPA(R):14. As a result of its reputation and experience in the industry and the contacts maintained by its professionals, WPC has a presence in the net lease market that has provided it with the opportunity to invest in a significant number of transactions on an ongoing basis. CPA(R):14 takes advantage of WPC's presence in the net lease market to build its portfolio. In evaluating opportunities for CPA(R):14, WPC carefully examines the credit, management and other attributes of the tenant and the importance of the property under consideration to the tenant's operations. Careful credit analysis is a crucial aspect of every transaction. CPA(R):14 believes that WPC has one of the most extensive underwriting processes in the industry and has an experienced staff of professionals involved with underwriting transactions. WPC seeks to identify those prospective tenants whose creditworthiness is likely to improve over time. CPA(R):14 believes that the experience of WPC's management in structuring sale-leaseback transactions to meet the needs of a prospective tenant enables WPC to obtain a higher return for a given level of risk than would typically be available by purchasing a property subject to an existing lease. WPC's strategy in structuring its net lease investments for CPA(R):14 is to: - combine the stability and security of long-term lease payments, including rent increases, with the appreciation potential inherent in the ownership of real estate; - enhance current returns by utilizing varied lease structures; - reduce credit risk by diversifying investments by tenant, type of facility, geographic location and tenant industry; and - increase potential returns by obtaining equity enhancements from the tenant when possible, such as warrants to purchase tenant common stock. DEVELOPMENTS DURING 2003 SIGNIFICANT ACQUISITIONS: On February 7, 2003, the Company, and two affiliates, Corporate Property Associates 12 Incorporated ("CPA(R):12") and Corporate Property Associates 15 Incorporated ("CPA(R):15"), through a newly-formed limited liability company with ownership interests of 41%, 15% and 44%, respectively, purchased land and 15 health club facilities for $178,010,471 and entered into a master net lease with Starmark Camhood, LLC ("Starmark"). The lease obligations of Starmark are jointly and unconditionally guaranteed by seven of its affiliates. The Starmark lease provides for an initial lease term of 20 years with three ten-year renewal terms. Annual rent is initially $18,272,400 with CPI-based increases scheduled in November 2006, 2010, 2014, 2018 and 2021. In connection with the purchase, the limited liability company obtained first mortgage limited recourse financing of $88,300,000 and a mezzanine loan of $20,000,000. The first mortgage provides for monthly payments of interest and principal of $563,936 at an annual interest rate of 6.6% and based on a 30-year amortization schedule. The loan matures in March 2013 at which time a balloon payment is payable. The mezzanine loan provides for monthly payments of interest and principal of $277,201 at an annual interest rate of 11.15% and will fully amortize over its ten-year term. The limited liability company was granted warrants for Class C Unit interests in Starmark. If exercised, the Unit interests would represent a 5% interest in Starmark as of the date of grant. The warrants may be exercised at any time through February 7, 2023 at an exercise price of $430 per unit. The warrant agreement does not provide for a cashless exercise of units. On July 24, 2003, the Company completed an expansion at its existing facility in Le Mans, France leased to Carrefour France SAS ("Carrefour") at a cost of E9,068,072 ($10,421,935 based on the exchange rate at the completion date) and amended and restated its existing lease with Carrefour. The amended and restated lease has a remaining term through March 2011 and provides for an increase in annual rent of E867,851 to E2,306,612 ($2,650,989), with annual rent increases based on a formula indexed to increases in the INSEE, a French construction cost index. In connection with the expansion, the Company obtained E7,137,000 ($8,202,554) of limited recourse mortgage financing collateralized by the property. The loan provides for quarterly payments of interest at an annual interest rate of 5.51%. The interest rate is fixed through July 2010, at which time the loan will convert to a variable rate. Principal installments are payable based on an initial 2.60% annuity, with scheduled increases throughout the term of the loan. The loan matures on April 30, 2017, at which time a balloon payment is scheduled. -2- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED During 2003, CPA(R):14 completed build-to-suit projects with Waddington North America, Inc., Career Education Group and Rave Motion Pictures LLC which are providing an increase in aggregate annual lease revenues of $2,690,902. In July 2003, the Company obtained $6,700,000 of limited recourse mortgage debt collateralized by the UTI Holdings, Inc. property in Mooresville, North Carolina, at an annual debt service of $586,729. FINANCING STRATEGIES Consistent with its investment policies, CPA(R):14 uses leverage when available on favorable terms. CPA(R):14 has approximately $702,175,000 in property level debt outstanding. These mortgages mature between 2006 and 2008 and have fixed interest rates between 3.12% and 8.85%. CPA(R):14 is a party to a mortgage financing securitization transaction with three affiliates, W. P. Carey & Co. LLC, Carey Institutional Properties Incorporated and Corporate Property Associates 12 Incorporated, entered into in August 2002. CPA(R):14 and the three affiliates obtained an aggregate of approximately $172,335,000 of limited recourse mortgage financing collateralized by 62 leased properties. The lender pooled the loans into a trust, Carey Commercial Mortgage Trust, a non-affiliate, whose assets consist solely of the loans, and sold the interests in the trust as collateralized mortgage obligations in a private placement to institutional investors. CPA(R):14 and the three affiliates agreed to acquire a separate class of subordinated interests in the trust (the "CPA(R) Interests"). The amount of CPA(R) Interests acquired by CPA(R):14 was proportional to the mortgage amounts obtained. The CPA(R) Interests were purchased for $24,129,000 of which CPA(R):14's share was $6,032,000 or 25%, and are comprised of two components, a component that will receive payments of principal and interest and a component that will receive payments of interest only. CPA(R):14 is accounting for its interest in the CPA(R) Interests as an available-for-sale security and will be measured at fair value with all gains and losses from changes in fair value reported as a component of other comprehensive income as part of shareholders' equity. WPC continually seeks opportunities and considers alternative financing techniques to finance properties not currently subject to debt, refinance debt, reduce interest expense or improve its capital structure. TRANSACTION ORIGINATION In analyzing potential acquisitions, WPC reviews and structures many aspects of a transaction, including the tenant, the real estate and the lease, to determine whether a potential acquisition can be structured to satisfy CPA(R):14's acquisition criteria. The aspects of a transaction which are reviewed and structured by WPC include the following: Tenant Evaluation. WPC evaluates each potential tenant for its credit, management, position within its industry, operating history and profitability. WPC seeks tenants it believes will have stable or improving credit. By leasing properties to these tenants, CPA(R):14 can generally charge rent that is higher than the rent charged to tenants with recognized credit and thereby enhance its current return from these properties as compared with properties leased to companies whose credit potential has already been recognized by the market. Furthermore, if a tenant's credit does improve, the value of CPA(R):14's property will likely increase (if all other factors affecting value remain unchanged). WPC may also seek to enhance the likelihood of a tenant's lease obligations being satisfied, such as through a letter of credit or a guaranty of lease obligations from the tenant's corporate parent. This credit enhancement provides CPA(R):14 with additional financial security. In evaluating a possible investment, the creditworthiness of a tenant generally will be a more significant factor than the value of the property absent the lease with such tenant. While WPC will select tenants it believes are creditworthy, tenants will not be required to meet any minimum rating established by an independent credit rating agency. WPC's and the investment committee's standards for determining whether a particular tenant is creditworthy vary in accordance with a variety of factors relating to specific prospective tenants. The creditworthiness of a tenant is determined on a tenant by tenant, case by case basis. Therefore, general standards for creditworthiness cannot be applied. Leases with Increasing Rent. WPC typically includes, or attempts to include a clause in each lease that provides for increases in rent over the term of the lease. These increases are generally tied to increases in indices such as the consumer price index. In the case of retail stores, these leases often provide for participation in gross sales above a stated level. The lease may also provide for mandated rental increases on specific dates or other methods that may not have been in existence or contemplated by us as of the date of this report. WPC seeks to avoid entering into leases that provide for contractual reductions in rents during their primary term. -3- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED Properties Important to Tenant Operations. WPC generally seeks to acquire properties with operations that are essential or important to the ongoing operations of the tenant. WPC believes that these properties provide better protection in the event a tenant files for bankruptcy, since leases on properties essential or important to the operations of a bankrupt tenant are less likely to be terminated by a bankrupt tenant. WPC also seeks to assess the income, cash flow and profitability of the business conducted at the property so that, if the tenant is unable to operate its business, CPA(R):14 can either continue operating the business conducted at the property or re-lease the property to another entity in the industry which can operate the property profitably. Lease Provisions that Enhance and Protect Value. When appropriate, WPC attempts to include provisions in its leases that require its consent to specified tenant activity or require the tenant to satisfy specific operating tests. These provisions include, for example, operational and financial covenants of the tenant, prohibitions on a change in control of the tenant and indemnification from the tenant against environmental and other contingent liabilities. These provisions protect CPA(R):14's investment from changes in the operating and financial characteristics of a tenant that may impact its ability to satisfy its obligations to us or could reduce the value of CPA(R):14's properties. Diversification. WPC will continue to diversify CPA(R):14's portfolio to avoid dependence on any one particular tenant, type of facility, geographic location or tenant industry. By diversifying CPA(R):14's portfolio, WPC reduces the adverse effect of a single under-performing investment or a downturn in any particular industry or geographic region. WPC uses a variety of other strategies in connection with its acquisitions. These strategies include attempting to obtain equity enhancements in connection with transactions. Typically, these equity enhancements involve warrants to purchase stock of the tenant or the stock of the parent of the tenant. If the value of the stock exceeds the exercise price of the warrant, equity enhancements help CPA(R):14 to achieve its goal of increasing funds available for the payment of distributions. As a transaction is structured, it is evaluated by the chairman of WPC's investment committee. Before a property is acquired, the transaction is reviewed by the investment committee to ensure that it satisfies CPA(R):14's investment criteria. The investment committee is not directly involved in originating or negotiating potential acquisitions, but instead functions as a separate and final step in the acquisition process. WPC places special emphasis on having experienced individuals serve on its investment committee and does not invest in a transaction unless it is approved by the investment committee. CPA(R):14 believes that the investment committee review process gives it a unique competitive advantage over other net lease companies because of the substantial experience and perspective that the investment committee has in evaluating the blend of corporate credit, real estate and lease terms that combine to make an acceptable risk. The following people serve on the investment committee: - George E. Stoddard, Chairman, was formerly responsible for the direct corporate investments of The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and has been involved with the CPA(R) programs for over 20 years. - Frank J. Hoenemeyer, Vice Chairman, was formerly Vice Chairman, Director and Chief Investment Officer of The Prudential Insurance Company of America. As Chief Investment Officer, Mr. Hoenemeyer was responsible for all of Prudential's investments, including stocks, bonds, private placements, real estate and mortgages. - Nathaniel S. Coolidge previously served as Senior Vice President -- Head of Bond & Corporate Finance Department of the John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company. His responsibility included overseeing fixed income investments for Hancock, its affiliates and outside clients. - Lawrence R. Klein is the Benjamin Franklin Professor of Economics Emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania and its Wharton School. Dr. Klein has been awarded the Alfred Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences and currently advises various governments and government agencies. -4- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED - Ralph F. Verni is a private investor and business consultant and formerly Chief Investment Officer of The New England Mutual Life Insurance Company. - Karsten von Koller was formerly Chairman and Member of the Board of Managing Directors of Eurohypo AG, the leading commercial real estate financing company in Europe. Each property purchased by CPA(R):14 has been and future purchases will be appraised by an independent appraiser. CPA(R):14 will not purchase any property that has a total property cost (the purchase price of the property plus all acquisition fees) which is in excess of its appraised value. These appraisals may take into consideration, among other things, the terms and conditions of the particular lease transaction, the quality of the lessee's credit and the conditions of the credit markets at the time the lease transaction is negotiated. The appraised value may be greater than the construction cost or the replacement cost of a property, and the actual sale price of a property if sold by CPA(R):14 may be greater or less than the appraised value. WPC's practices include performing evaluations of the physical condition of properties and performing environmental surveys in an attempt to determine potential environmental liabilities associated with a property prior to its acquisition. CPA(R):14 will also consider factors peculiar to the laws of foreign countries, in addition to the risk normally associated with real property investments, when considering an investment located outside the United States. ASSET MANAGEMENT CPA(R):14 believes that effective management of its net lease assets is essential to maintain and enhance property values. Important aspects of asset management include restructuring transactions to meet the evolving needs of current tenants, re-leasing properties, refinancing debt, selling properties and knowledge of the bankruptcy process. WPC monitors, on an ongoing basis, compliance by tenants with their lease obligations and other factors that could affect the financial performance of any of its properties. Monitoring involves receiving assurances that each tenant has paid real estate taxes, assessments and other expenses relating to the properties it occupies and confirming that appropriate insurance coverage is being maintained by the tenant. WPC reviews financial statements of its tenants and undertakes regular physical inspections of the condition and maintenance of its properties. Additionally, WPC periodically analyzes each tenant's financial condition, the industry in which each tenant operates and each tenant's relative strength in its industry. HOLDING PERIOD CPA(R):14 intends to hold each property it acquires for an extended period. The determination of whether a particular property should be sold or otherwise disposed of will be made after consideration of relevant factors with a view to achieving maximum capital appreciation and after-tax return for the CPA(R):14 shareholders. If CPA(R):14's common stock is not listed for trading on a national securities exchange or included for quotation on NASDAQ, CPA(R):14 will generally begin selling properties within eight years after the proceeds of its public offerings are substantially invested, subject to market conditions. The board of directors will make the decision whether to list the shares, liquidate or devise an alternative liquidity strategy which is likely to result in the greatest value for the shareholders. COMPETITION CPA(R):14 faces competition for the acquisition of office and industrial properties in general, and such properties net leased to major corporations in particular, from insurance companies, credit companies, pension funds, private individuals, investment companies and other REITs. CPA(R):14 also faces competition from institutions that provide or arrange for other types of commercial financing through private or public offerings of equity or debt or traditional bank financings. CPA(R):14 believes its management's experience in real estate, credit underwriting and transaction structuring will allow CPA(R):14 to compete effectively for office and industrial properties. -5- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, regulations and ordinances, current or former owners of real estate, as well as other parties, may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic chemicals, substances or waste or petroleum product or waste, releases on, under, in or from a property. These parties may be held liable to governmental entities or to third parties for specified damages and for investigation and cleanup costs incurred by these parties in connection with the release or threatened release of hazardous materials. These laws typically impose responsibility and liability without regard to whether the owner knew of or was responsible for the presence of hazardous materials, and the liability under these laws has been interpreted to be joint and several under some circumstances. CPA(R):14's leases often provide that the tenant is responsible for all environmental liability and for compliance with environmental regulations relating to the tenant's operations. CPA(R):14 typically undertakes an investigation of potential environmental risks when evaluating an acquisition. Phase I environmental assessments are performed by independent environmental consulting and engineering firms for all properties acquired by CPA(R):14. Where warranted, Phase II environmental assessments are performed. Phase I assessments do not involve subsurface testing, whereas Phase II assessments involve some degree of soil and/or groundwater testing. CPA(R):14 may acquire a property which is known to have had a release of hazardous materials in the past, subject to a determination of the level of risk and potential cost of remediation. CPA(R):14 normally requires property sellers to indemnify it fully against any environmental problem existing as of the date of purchase. Additionally, CPA(R):14 often structures its leases to require the tenant to assume most or all responsibility for compliance with the environmental provisions of the lease or environmental remediation relating to the tenant's operations and to provide that non-compliance with environmental laws is a lease default. In some cases, CPA(R):14 may also require a cash reserve, a letter of credit or a guarantee from the tenant, the tenant's parent company or a third party to assure lease compliance and funding of remediation. The value of any of these protections depends on the amount of the collateral and/or financial strength of the entity providing the protection. Such a contractual arrangement does not eliminate CPA(R):14's statutory liability or preclude claims against CPA(R):14 by governmental authorities or persons who are not a party to the arrangement. Contractual arrangements in CPA(R):14's leases may provide a basis for CPA(R):14 to recover from the tenant damages or costs for which it has been found liable. INDUSTRY SEGMENT CPA(R):14 operates in one industry segment, investment in net leased real property. For the year ended December 31, 2003, no lessee represented 10% or more of the total operating revenue of CPA(R):14. FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS The provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") became effective in December 1995. The Act provides a "safe harbor" for companies which make forward-looking statements providing prospective information. The "safe harbor" under the Act relates to protection for companies with respect to litigation filed on the basis of such forward-looking statements. CPA(R):14 wishes to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Act and is therefore including this section in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. The statements contained in this Annual Report, if not historical, are forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties which are described below that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results, financial or otherwise, or other expectations described in such forward-looking statements. These statements are identified with the words "anticipated," "expected," "intends," "seeks" or "plans" or words of similar meaning. Therefore, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual future results or occurrences. CPA(R):14's future results may be affected by certain risks and uncertainties including the following: We are subject to the risks of real estate ownership which could reduce the value of our properties. Our properties may include net leased industrial and commercial property. The performance of CPA(R):14 is subject to risks incident to the ownership and operation of these types of properties, including: - changes in the general economic climate; - changes in local conditions such as an oversupply of space or reduction in demand for real estate; - changes in interest rates and the availability of financing; -6- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED - competition from other available space; and - changes in laws and governmental regulations, including those governing real estate usage, zoning and taxes. We may have difficulty selling or re-leasing our properties. Real estate investments are relatively illiquid compared to most financial assets and this illiquidity will limit our ability to quickly change our portfolio in response to changes in economic or other conditions. Many of the net leases we enter into or acquire are for properties that are specially suited to the particular needs of our tenant. With these properties, if the current lease is terminated or not renewed, we may be required to renovate the property or to make rent concessions in order to lease the property to another tenant. In addition, in the event we are forced to sell the property, we may have difficulty selling it to a party other than the tenant due to the special purpose for which the property may have been designed. In addition, provisions of the Internal Revenue Code relating to REITs limit our ability to sell properties held for fewer than four years. These and other limitations may affect our ability to sell properties without adversely affecting returns to our shareholders. The inability of a tenant in a single tenant property to pay rent will reduce our revenues. Most of our properties are occupied by a single tenant and, therefore, the success of our investments is materially dependent on the financial stability of our tenants. Lease payment defaults by tenants could cause us to reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders. A default of a tenant on its lease payments to us would cause us to lose the revenue from the property and cause us to have to find an alternative source of revenue to meet the mortgage payment and prevent a foreclosure if the property is subject to a mortgage. In the event of a default, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and reletting our property. If a lease is terminated, there is no assurance that we will be able to lease the property for the rent previously received or sell the property without incurring a loss. The bankruptcy of tenants would cause a reduction in revenue. A tenant in bankruptcy could cause: - the loss of lease payments; - an increase in the costs incurred to carry the property; - a reduction in the value of shares; and - a decrease in distributions to shareholders. Under bankruptcy law, a tenant who is the subject of bankruptcy proceedings has the option of continuing or terminating any unexpired lease. If the tenant terminates the lease, any claim we have for breach of the lease (excluding collateral securing the claim) will be treated as a general unsecured claim. The maximum claim will be capped at the amount owed for unpaid rent prior to the bankruptcy unrelated to the termination, plus the greater of one year's lease payments or 15% of the remaining lease payments payable under the lease (but no more than three years' lease payments). In addition, due to the long-term nature of our leases and terms providing for the repurchase of a property by the tenant, a bankruptcy court could recharacterize a net lease transaction as a secured lending transaction. If that were to occur, we would not be treated as the owner of the property, but might have additional rights as a secured creditor. Some of the programs managed by WPC or its affiliates have had tenants file for bankruptcy protection and are involved in litigation. Four CPA(R) programs had to reduce the rate of distributions to their partners as a result of adverse developments involving tenants. If our tenants are highly leveraged, they may have a higher possibility of filing for bankruptcy. Of tenants that experience downturns in their operating results due to adverse changes to their business or economic conditions, those that are highly leveraged may have a higher possibility of filing for bankruptcy. In bankruptcy, a tenant has the option of vacating a property instead of paying rent. Until such a property is released from bankruptcy, our revenues would be reduced and could cause us to reduce distributions to shareholders. We have highly leveraged tenants at this time, and we may have additional highly leveraged tenants in the future. Our tenants generally do not have a recognized credit rating, which may create a higher risk of lease defaults and therefore lower revenues than if our tenants had a recognized credit rating. Generally, no credit rating agencies evaluate or rank the debt or the credit risk of our tenants, as we seek tenants that we believe will have improving credit profiles. Our long-term leases with certain of these tenants may therefore pose -7- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED a higher risk of default than would long term leases with tenants whose credit potential has already been recognized by the market. There is not, and may never be a public market for our shares, so it will be difficult for shareholders to sell shares quickly. There is no current public market for the shares and, therefore, it will be difficult for shareholders to sell their shares promptly. In addition, the price received for any shares sold is likely to be less than the proportionate value of the real estate we own. Our success will be dependent on the performance of WPC. Our ability to achieve our investment objectives and to pay distributions is dependent upon the performance of WPC in the acquisition of investments, the selection of tenants, the determination of any financing arrangements, and upon the management of the assets. You will have no opportunity to evaluate the terms of transactions or other economic or financial data concerning our investments. You must rely entirely on the management ability of WPC and the oversight of the board of directors. WPC may be subject to conflicts of interest. WPC manages our business and selects our real estate investments. WPC has some conflicts of interest in its management of CPA(R):14, which arise primarily from the involvement of WPC and its affiliates in other activities that may conflict with CPA(R):14 and the payment of fees by us to WPC and its affiliates. The activities in which a conflict could arise between CPA(R):14 and WPC are: - the receipt of commissions, fees and other compensation by WPC and its affiliates for property purchases, leases, sales and financing for CPA(R):14, which may cause WPC and its affiliates to engage in transactions that generate higher fees, rather than transactions that are more appropriate or beneficial for our business; - agreements between CPA(R):14 and WPC or any of its affiliates, including agreements regarding compensation of WPC and its affiliates, will not be negotiated on an arm's length basis as would occur if the agreements were with unaffiliated third parties; - purchases and loans from affiliates, subject to CPA(R):14's investment procedures, objectives and policies, which will increase fees and interest payable to affiliates, thereby decreasing our net income and possibly causing us to incur higher leverage levels; - competition with certain affiliates for property acquisitions, which may cause WPC and its affiliates to direct properties suitable for us to other related entities; - disposition, incentive and termination fees, which are based on the sale price of properties, may cause a conflict between the advisor's desire to sell a property and our plans to hold or sell the property. Inherent in these transactions is the conflict of interest that arises due to the potential impact of the transaction on the amount of fees received by WPC and/or its affiliates and the distributions to shareholders. Liability for uninsured losses could adversely affect our financial condition. Losses from disaster-type occurrences (such as wars or earthquakes) may be either uninsurable or not insurable on economically viable terms. Should an uninsured loss occur, we could lose our capital investment and/or anticipated profits and cash flow from one or more properties. Potential liability for environmental matters could adversely affect our financial condition. We own industrial and commercial properties and are subject to the risk of liabilities under federal, state and local environmental laws. Some of these laws could impose the following on CPA(R):14: - Responsibility and liability for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous substances released on our property, generally without regard to our knowledge or responsibility of the presence of the contaminants. - Liability for the costs of removal or remediation of hazardous substances at disposal facilities for persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of these substances. - Potential liability for common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs of environmental contaminants. Our costs of investigation, remediation or removal of hazardous substances may be substantial. In addition, the presence of hazardous substances on one of our properties, or the failure to properly remediate a contaminated property, could adversely affect our ability to sell or lease the property or to borrow using the property as collateral. -8- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED Our use of debt to finance acquisitions could adversely affect our cash flow. Most of our property acquisitions will be made by borrowing a portion of the purchase price of our properties and securing the loan with a mortgage on the property. If we are unable to make our debt payments as required, a lender could foreclose on the property or properties securing its debt. This could cause us to lose part or all of our investment which in turn could cause the value of the shares and distributions to shareholders to be reduced. We generally borrow on a non-recourse basis to limit our exposure on any property to the amount of equity invested in the property. We typically borrow between 55% and 65% of the purchase price of our properties. There is no limitation on the amount borrowed on a single property and the aggregate borrowings may not exceed 75% of the value of all properties. Any borrowings in excess of 75% of the value of all properties must be approved by a majority of the independent directors and disclosed to shareholders. As of December 31, 2003, we had limited recourse mortgage notes payable outstanding of $702,175,000. Failure to qualify as a REIT could adversely affect our operations and ability to make distributions. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any taxable year, we would be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at corporate rates. In addition, we would generally be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year of losing our REIT status. Losing our REIT status would reduce our net earnings available for investment or distribution to shareholders because of the additional tax liability. In addition, distributions to shareholders would no longer qualify for the distributions paid deduction and we would no longer be required to make distributions. We might be required to borrow funds or liquidate some investments in order to pay the applicable tax. Qualification as a REIT is subject to the satisfaction of tax requirements and various factual matters and circumstances which are not entirely within our control. New legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could change the tax laws with respect to qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of being a REIT. The IRS may treat sale-leaseback transactions as loans, which could jeopardize our REIT status. The Internal Revenue Service may take the position that specific sale-leaseback transactions we will treat as true leases are not true leases for federal income tax purposes but are, instead, financing arrangements or loans. If a sale-leaseback transaction were so recharacterized, we might fail to satisfy the Asset Tests or the Income Tests and consequently lose our REIT status effective with the year of recharacterization. Alternatively, the amount of our REIT Taxable Income could be recalculated which could cause us to fail the Distribution Test. Balloon payment obligations may adversely affect our financial condition. Some of our financing may require us to make a lump-sum or "balloon" payment at maturity. Our ability to make any balloon payment is uncertain and may depend upon our ability to obtain additional financing or our ability to sell the property. At the time the balloon payment is due, we may or may not be able to refinance the balloon payment on terms as favorable as the original loan or sell the property at a price sufficient to make the balloon payment. A refinancing or sale could affect the rate of return to shareholders and the projected time of disposition of our assets. No balloon payments are scheduled in 2004 through 2007; in 2008, balloon payments totaling $5.3 million will be due. A limit on the number of shares a person may own may discourage a takeover. Our articles of incorporation restrict ownership of more than 9.8% of the outstanding shares by one person. These restrictions may discourage a change of control of CPA(R):14 and may deter individuals or entities from making tender offers for shares, which offers might be financially attractive to shareholders or which may cause a change in the management of CPA(R):14. Maryland law could restrict change in control. Provisions of Maryland law applicable to us prohibit business combinations with: - any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of outstanding shares; - an affiliate of us who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power of our outstanding shares ("an interested shareholder"); or - an affiliate of an interested shareholder. -9- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED These prohibitions last for five years after the most recent date on which the interested shareholder became an interested shareholder. Thereafter, any business combination must be recommended by our board of directors and approved by the affirmative vote of at least 80% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of our outstanding shares and two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of our shares other than shares held by the interested shareholder. These requirements could have the effect of inhibiting a change in control even if a change in control were in shareholders' interest. These provisions of Maryland law do not apply, however, to business combinations that are approved or exempted by our board of directors prior to the time that someone becomes an interested shareholder. Our participation in joint ventures creates additional risk. We participate in joint ventures with other entities, some of which may be unaffiliated with us. There are additional risks involved in these types of transactions. These risks include the potential of our joint venture partner becoming bankrupt and the possibility of diverging or inconsistent economic or business interests of us and our partner. These diverging interests could result in, among other things, exposing us to liabilities of the joint venture in excess of our proportionate share of these liabilities. The partition rights of each owner in a jointly owned property could reduce the value of each portion of the divided property. In addition, the fiduciary obligation that WPC may owe to our partner in an affiliated transaction may make it more difficult for us to enforce our rights. In some of our joint venture relationships with publicly registered investment programs or other entities sponsored by WPC or one of its affiliates, we enter into investments as tenants-in-common. This poses risks in addition to those mentioned above. The partition rights of each co-tenant in a tenancy-in-common could reduce the value of each portion of the divided property. In addition, the fiduciary obligation that WPC may owe to our partner in an affiliated transaction may make it more difficult for us to enforce our rights. International investments involve additional risks. We own properties in the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands and Finland and we may purchase additional property located outside the United States. These investments may be affected by factors peculiar to the laws of the jurisdiction in which the property is located. These laws may expose us to risks that are different from and in addition to those commonly found in the United States. Foreign investments could be subject to the following risks: - changing governmental rules and policies; - enactment of laws relating to the foreign ownership of property and laws relating to the ability of foreign persons or corporations to remove profits earned from activities within the country to the person's or corporation's country of origin; - variations in the currency exchange rates; - adverse market conditions caused by changes in national or local economic conditions; - changes in relative interest rates; - change in the availability, cost and terms of mortgage funds resulting from varying national economic policies; - changes in real estate and other tax rates and other operating expenses in particular countries; - changes in land use and zoning laws; and - more stringent environmental laws or changes in such laws. We may incur costs to finish build-to-suit properties. We may sometimes acquire undeveloped or partially developed land parcels for the purpose of owning to-be-built facilities for a prospective tenant. Oftentimes, completion risk, cost overruns and on-time delivery are the obligations of the prospective tenant. To the extent that the tenant or the third-party developer experiences financial difficulty or other complications during the construction process we may be required to incur project costs to complete all or part of the project within a specified time frame. The incurrence of these costs or the non-occupancy by the tenant may reduce the project's and our portfolio returns. -10- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED Item 2. Properties.

Selected Financial Data are hereby incorporated by reference to page 1 of CPA(R):14's Annual Report contained in Appendix A. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Management's Discussion and Analysis are hereby incorporated by reference to pages 2 to 11 of CPA(R):14's Annual Report contained in Appendix A. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk: Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, credit spreads, foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices. In pursuing our business plan, the primary market risks to which we are exposed are interest rate risk and currency exchange rates. The value of our real estate is subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates, local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, and which may affect our ability to refinance our debt when balloon payments are scheduled. Approximately $674,134,000 of CPA(R):14's long-term debt bears interest at fixed rates, and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in the market interest rates.

CPA(R):14 conducts business in the United Kingdom, Finland, France and The Netherlands. The foreign operations were not significant to CPA(R):14's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows during the three-year period ended December 31, 2003. Realized and unrealized foreign currency translation gains of $349 and $691, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2003 are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and are due to changes in foreign currency on accrued interest receivable on notes receivable from wholly-owned subsidiaries. CPA(R):14 was not subject to material foreign currency exchange rate risk from the effects that exchange rate movements of foreign currencies may have on its future costs or on future cash flows it may receive from its foreign subsidiaries. To date, CPA(R):14 has not entered into any foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge the effects of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. One lease provides CPA(R):14 the option to receive up to $77,500 of its rents in U.S. dollars or the functional local currency. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, this option is considered a derivative instrument. Scheduled future minimum rents, exclusive of renewals, under non-cancelable leases resulting from CPA(R):14's foreign operations are as follows: -17- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED

The following discussion includes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions, describe future plans, strategies and expectations of CPA(R):14. Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements may include words such as "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "intend", "could", "should", "would", "may", or similar expressions. Do not unduly rely on forward-looking statements. They give our expectations about the future and are not guarantees, and speak only as of the date they are made. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievement of CPA(R):14 to be materially different from the results of operations or plan expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. The risk factors are fully described in Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as representations by CPA(R):14 that the results or conditions described in such statements or objectives and plans of CPA(R):14 will be achieved. CPA(R):14 was formed in 1997 for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and owning commercial and industrial real estate. Between November 1997 and November 2001, CPA(R):14 raised $657,943 in two "best efforts" public offerings of common stock. CPA(R):14 used the proceeds from the public offerings along with limited recourse mortgage financing to purchase properties and enter into long-term net leases with corporate tenants. Substantially all of CPA(R):14's net leases have been structured to place certain economic burdens of ownership on these corporate tenants by requiring them to pay the costs of maintenance and repair, insurance and real estate taxes. The lease obligations are unconditional. When possible, CPA(R):14 also negotiates guarantees of the obligations from the parent company of the lessees. The leases have generally been structured to include periodic rent increases that are stated or based on increases in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") or, for certain retail properties, may provide for additional rents based on sales in excess of a specified base amount. In addition to investing directly, CPA(R):14 may also acquire interests in real estate through joint ventures. These joint ventures are generally with affiliates. As a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), CPA(R):14 is not subject to federal income taxes on amounts distributed to shareholders provided it meets certain conditions including distributing at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its shareholders. The primary objectives of CPA(R):14 are to provide rising cash flow and pay quarterly dividends at an increasing rate and to protect its investors from the effects of inflation through rent escalation provisions, property appreciation, tenant credit improvement and regular paydown of limited recourse mortgage debt. In addition, CPA(R):14 has successfully negotiated grants of common stock warrants from selected tenants and expects to realize the benefits of appreciation from those grants. CPA(R):14 cannot guarantee that its objectives will be ultimately realized. CPA(R):14 is advised by W. P. Carey & Co. LLC ("WPC"), an affiliate, pursuant to an Advisory Agreement. CPA(R):14's Advisory Agreement is renewable annually by Independent Directors who are elected by CPA(R):14's shareholders. In connection with each renewal, WPC is required to provide the Independent Directors with a comparison of the fee structure with several similar companies. The Advisory Agreement also provides, commencing in 2003, that an independent portfolio valuation be performed annually. The portfolio valuation is used to determine the asset base for calculating asset management and performance fees. Until the initial valuation is performed, the fees are calculated based on the historical cost of the purchased real estate assets. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Management evaluates the performance of CPA(R):14's portfolio of properties as a whole, rather than by identifying discrete operating segments. This evaluation includes assessing CPA(R):14's ability to meet distribution objectives, increase the dividend and increase value by evaluating potential investments in single tenant net lease real estate and by seeking favorable limited recourse mortgage financing opportunities. As of December 31, 2003, CPA(R):14 operates in one segment, real estate operations, and owned properties in the United States, the Netherlands, Finland, France and the United Kingdom. Management evaluates the results of CPA(R):14 with a primary focus on the ability to generate cash flow necessary to meet its investment objectives of overall property appreciation and increasing its distribution rate to its shareholders. -2- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) As a result, Management's assessment of operating results gives less emphasis to the effect of unrealized gains and losses which may cause fluctuations in net income for comparable periods but has no impact on cash flow and to other noncash charges such as depreciation and impairment charges. While impairment charges are intended to reflect an actual or potential decrease in the value of an asset, accounting principles do not permit increasing an asset to fair value when such fair value exceeds the asset's carrying value (historical cost less accumulated depreciation). Management believes that as the portfolio matures there is a potential for a substantial increase in the value of the portfolio and that any increase will not be reflected in its financial statements. In evaluating cash flow from operations, Management includes equity distributions that are included in investing activities to the extent that the distributions in excess of equity income is the result of noncash charges such as depreciation and amortization. For the year ended December 31, 2003, cash flow generated from operations was greater than dividends paid but not sufficient to fully meet other obligations including paying scheduled mortgage principal payments and making distributions to minority interests which hold ownership interests in several of CPA(R):14's properties. Such deficit is met from existing cash reserves. Management expects based on its projections that over the long-term cash flow from operations and equity investments will meet the objective of increasing the distribution rate and meeting other cash obligations. CPA(R):14 still has a significant amount of cash which is available for investment in real estate. It is likely that additional investments will be made with affiliates. As of December 31, 2003, CPA(R):14 has approximately $55,000 of cash which it believes is in excess of its operating needs. These funds are currently invested in money market instruments which are bearing interest at historically low yields; however, Management intends to invest these funds in real estate investments which Management and the Investment Committee of the Advisor believe are suitable. While the results of operations for the years presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are not fully comparable because CPA(R):14 has not fully invested its funds, income from continuing operations before gains has reflected increases from year to year. Cash flow from operations and equity investments in 2003 would have increased however changes in other operating assets and liabilities such as prepaid rents reflected a net use of cash. CPA(R):14's operating cash flow may be affected by such short-term fluctutations. Management's evaluation of CPA(R):14's potential for generating cash flow is based on a long-term analysis and, therefore, its evaluation of the ability to generate cash flow does not take into account short-term changes in assets and liabilities for items such as changes in prepaid rents. Results of Operations Year Ended December 31, 2003 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2002 Net income for the year ended December 31, 2003 increased by $3,554 to $33,820 and income from continuing operations before gains increased by $3,294 to $32,800 as compared with 2002. The results of operations for 2003 included the benefit from the forfeiture of a $2,588 security deposit to CPA(R):14 by a former lessee and noncash impairment charges of $3,103 on real estate. The increases in income from continuing operations, net of the forfeiture benefit and impairment charge, are due to an increase in CPA(R):14's real estate asset base including its equity investments and the completion of build-to-suit projects. Lease revenues increased by $11,805 in 2003, primarily as a result of completing build-to-suit commitments and purchasing real estate. In July 2003, CPA(R):14 funded an expansion of an existing property leased to Carrefour France SAS in Le Mans, France. Additional annual rent from the expansion will provide approximately $1,131, based on current exchange rates. CPA(R):14 also completed build-to-suit projects with Waddington North America, Inc., Career Education Group and Rave Motion Pictures LLC during the year which are providing an increase in aggregate annual lease revenues of $2,691. During 2002, CPA(R):14 purchased properties and entered into leases with Carrefour France SA, UTI Holdings, Inc., Tower Automotive, Inc., PW Eagle, Inc., American Tire Distributors and Katun Corporation, which provided for $9,607 of the increases in lease revenues in 2003 as compared with 2002. In March 2003, Fleming Companies, Inc. filed a voluntary petition of bankruptcy and subsequently terminated its lease at a property in Grand Rapids, Michigan. An affiliate owns a 40% minority interest in the property. CPA(R):14's share of annual rent from the Fleming lease was $925. On January 1, 2004, the Company entered into a net lease with The Retail Distribution Group for the property at an initial annual rent of $903, of which the Company's share is $361. The Retail Distribution lease provides for certain reductions of rent as it vacated another property which is still subject to lease in order to lease the Grand Rapids property. The reductions will be adjusted based on the sublease rentals Retail Distribution receives from the other property. The Retail Distribution lease has an initial term through August 31, 2009 with one four-year renewal term. In November 2003, Scott Companies, Inc. -3- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) entered into liquidation proceedings and subsequently terminated its lease at its property in Gardena, California. The property is being remarketed. The Scott lease had provided lease revenues of $737. CPA(R):14 owns a property in Rochester, Minnesota leased to Celestica Corporation. In July 2003, Celestica vacated the property but continued to pay its $2,194 annual rent. In January 2004, CPA(R):14 agreed to assign the Celestica lease to the Mayo Foundation in exchange for payments to the Mayo Foundation of $150 from CPA(R):14 and a payment from Celestica. CPA(R):14 believes that this provides an overall benefit because of Mayo's strong credit rating and its unique stature in Rochester. More than 30 leases have rent increases scheduled in 2004. The initial term of a lease with Best Buy, Inc. for a retail property in Torrance, California is scheduled to expire in 2005 and contributes $1,900 of annual lease revenues. Best Buy has not indicated whether it intends to extend its lease. BLP Group plc leases a manufacturing and distribution facility in the United Kingdom which it may purchase at its option in 2006. Earle M. Jorgensen Company has an option to purchase the Kansas City, Missouri distribution and warehouse facility it leases from CPA(R):14 in 2007. CPA(R):14 has not received any indication that the purchase options will be exercised. Income from equity investments increased by $7,672 for the year ended December 31, 2003, primarily as the result of acquiring interests in properties leased to TruServ Corporation and Clear Channel Communications, Inc. in December 2002 and Starmark Camhood, LLC in February 2003. CPA(R):14's annual distributions from the real estate operations of these equity investments are $7,368 in 2003. The increase in interest and other income of $4,291 during the year ended December 31, 2003 consisted of property expense reimbursements received from lessees, interest income earned from CPA(R):14's interest in a mortgage securitization and the forfeiture of the $2,588 security deposit. Reimbursements from tenants of $2,214 were used to pay real estate taxes and other property expenses that a lessee generally incurs under a net lease, and the reimbursements, net of the expenses, have no effect on net income. CPA(R):14 acquired its subordinated interest in the mortgage securitization in August 2002 along with three affiliates and earned interest income of $792 from the investment in 2003, as compared with $278 in 2002. Interest income from cash investments decreased by $1,415 for the current year as CPA(R):14 has used its cash to purchase real estate. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2003 increased by $7,641 as a result of obtaining $198,455 and $27,477 of mortgage financing in 2002 and 2003, respectively. Increases in depreciation were directly attributable to the increase in real estate assets purchased in 2002 and 2003. Property expense for the year increased by $5,902 due to expenses which have been reimbursed by lessees and an increase in asset management and performance fees of $4,072 since 2002. The asset-based fees increased as a result of the growth of CPA(R):14's asset base. Property expenses increased due to the vacancies at the Grand Rapids and Gardena properties. The re-leasing of the Grand Rapids property will alleviate a portion of these carrying costs, and if the Gardena property is re-leased, CPA(R):14 expects the lessee to pay or reimburse a portion or all of such costs. Carrying costs on the Grand Rapids property were approximately $545 in 2003 and estimated carrying costs for the Gardena property are $196. General and administrative expense increased by $1,967 for the year due to an increase in investor-related costs and increases in certain variable costs which increased as CPA(R):14's asset base increased. As of December 31, 2003, CPA(R):14 recognized realized gains on foreign currency transactions of $349 and an unrealized foreign currency gain of $691, offset by an unrealized loss of $20 on its holdings of warrants for common stocks. In evaluating its ability to fund dividends, CPA(R):14 does not consider unrealized gains and losses from these derivative instruments. Because of the long-term nature of CPA(R):14's net leases, inflation and changing prices have not unfavorably affected CPA(R):14's revenues and net income. CPA(R):14's net leases generally have rent increases based on formulas indexed to increases in the CPI, sales overrides or other periodic increases which are designed to increase lease revenues in the future. Most of CPA(R):14's leases provide for rent increases, either based on fixed amounts or a formula indexed to increases in CPI. Over the past several years, the CPI has increased within a range of approximately 1.5% to 3% per year. Year Ended December 31, 2002 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2001 Net income for the year ended December 31, 2002 is not directly comparable to net income for the year ended December 31, 2001 as a result of substantial increase in CPA(R):14's asset base. Net income was $30,266 in 2002 as compared to $18,377 in 2001. Since December 31, 2001, CPA(R):14's asset base increased by more than $217,371, -4- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) or 20%, and by more than 100% since December 31, 2000. The asset base is projected to continue to increase until available cash is fully invested in real estate. Income from continuing operations before gains and losses increased by $11,001 for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2001. The increase was due to an increase in lease revenues and an increase in income from equity investments, which was offset, in part, by increases in interest expense, depreciation, property and general and administrative expenses. As a result of the on-going acquisition activity, CPA(R):14's revenue and expense are projected to increase. Lease revenues increased primarily as a result of real estate purchases and the completion of built-to-suit projects during 2001 and 2002. During 2002, CPA(R):14 purchased properties and entered into new leases with American Tire Distributors, Carrefour, PW Eagle, UTI Holdings, Tower Automotive, Career Education Group and Katun. These leases will provide annual revenues of $22,728 ($11,594 of cash flow after debt service). These new leases contributed $14,186 of lease revenues in 2002. CPA(R):14 completed new acquisitions with thirteen leases in 2001 and the results for 2002 reflected the first full year of results from those lessees. Lease revenues also benefited from scheduled rent increases on existing leases. Lease revenues for the year ended December 2002 reflect a reduction of $605 as a result of the lease termination of the Burlington Motor Carriers, Inc. lease in March 2002 pursuant to its reorganization in bankruptcy. Annual revenues from the Burlington lease were $833. Income from equity investments increased primarily due to the acquisition of properties leased to Special Devices, Inc. and Clear Channel Communication, Inc. in June 2001 and December 2002, respectively. In addition, equity income benefited from rent increases on three existing leases. Of the $1,627 increase in equity income from 2001, $387 was due to the acquisition of the interests in the Special Devices and Clear Channel properties and $407 was due to rent increases. An equity investment in properties leased to CheckFree Corporation has a mortgage obligation with a variable rate indexed to the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate. The LIBOR index declined in 2002 and 2001, and CPA(R):14's share of income from the CheckFree investment increased by approximately $265 from 2001, solely as a result of this rate reduction. Equity income is projected to increase due to the acquisition in December 2002 of 35% and 40% interests in limited partnerships that lease properties to TruServ Corporation and Clear Channel, respectively. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 increased by $23,168, primarily from obtaining new mortgage loans. In connection with its participation in a mortgage securitization transaction, CPA(R):14 obtained $42,332 of limited recourse mortgage financing on previously unencumbered properties. As a result of this transaction, annual interest expense will increase by $3,175. The increase in depreciation expense is the result of the increase in real estate assets. Depreciation, a noncash charge, increased by $8,107. The increase in general and administrative expense of $2,130 was primarily due to an increase in investor-related costs and other costs related to the increase in CPA(R):14's asset base. Property expense increased primarily due to increases in asset management and performance fees which are calculated based on the Average Invested Assets (i.e. real estate assets) of CPA(R):14. Effective January 1, 2003, asset management and performance fees are being determined based on an independent valuation of CPA(R):14's real estate assets which will be performed annually. Asset-based fees may be expected to increase as a result of appreciation in the value of CPA(R):14's real estate assets and the acquisition of properties. Property expense also increased to reflect the costs of the initial valuation of CPA(R):14's real estate assets. As of December 31, 2002, CPA(R):14 recognized an unrealized gain of $385 on its holdings of warrants for common stocks and unrealized foreign currency loss of $30. In evaluating its ability to fund dividends, CPA(R):14 does not consider unrealized gains and losses from these derivative instruments. Discontinued operations include a gain on sale of real estate property in Greenville, Texas of $333, which was sold in June 2002, and $72 from the operations of the Greenville property for the period prior to the sale. Financial Condition CPA(R):14's cash has decreased by $19,432 since December 31, 2002, primarily as a result of acquiring new real estate investments. CPA(R):14 is using its cash to purchase new properties to further diversify its portfolio, complete its commitments on build-to-suit construction projects and maintain cash balances sufficient to meet working capital -5- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) needs. As of December 31, 2003, CPA(R):14 had approximately $25,000 of cash available for the acquisition of real estate investments. For the year ended December 31, 2003, cash flows from operating activities and equity investments of $60,588 were not sufficient to pay dividends to shareholders of $50,173, meet scheduled principal payment installments on mortgage debt of $9,234 and distribute $3,340 to minority partners ($400 from the release of mortgage escrow funds was distributed to a minority partner). Operating cash flow is expected to continue to increase as a result of acquiring the Carrefour expansion and completing three build-to-suit projects, all of which commenced paying rent in the third quarter of 2003. Annual cash flow (lease revenues, net of property-level debt service) from the three build-to-suit projects and the Carrefour expansion, net of property-level debt service, is approximately $2,375. CPA(R):14's investment in Starmark is projected to contribute annual distributions of $3,300, of which only $1,336 was received in 2003. A portion of Starmark's rent has been used to fund certain debt service escrow obligations which are to be reimbursed by the lessee. Based on the projected increase in operating cash flows from the completed build-to-suit projects and the investment in Starmark, cash flow from operations and equity investments is expected to be sufficient to meet operating cash flow objectives. Accordingly, CPA(R):14 expects to have sufficient cash flow to continue increasing the distribution rate to its shareholders. Current distributions are determined by Management's long-term projections of cash flow and it is willing to sustain moderate cash flow deficits as the portfolio matures. CPA(R):14's investing activities included using $42,031 to purchase its 41% interest in the Starmark properties, to complete the Waddington, Career Education and Rave projects and to acquire the Carrefour expansion. In July 2003, CPA(R):14 used $10,422 for the Carrefour expansion (including obtaining mortgage financing of $8,203 based on the exchange rate for the Euro at the acquisition date). The annual cash flow from the expansion is projected to be approximately $430, based on current exchange rates. In January 2003, CPA(R):14 received $8,722 from its share of mortgage proceeds obtained by an equity investee. CPA(R):14 also paid an annual installment of deferred acquisition fees in January 2003 of $2,373. In addition to paying dividends to shareholders, principal payments on mortgage debt and paying distributions to minority interest owners, CPA(R):14's financing activities included obtaining proceeds of $21,582 from mortgage loans and $1,617 from a note payable collateralized by the Carrefour property. During 2003, CPA(R):14 obtained the $8,203 mortgage loan collateralized by the Carrefour property and $6,680 of additional proceeds on a mortgage loan collateralized by the Career Education property, increasing the loan on the property to $12,500. Annual debt service on the Carrefour and Career Education properties is $596 at current exchange rates and $746, respectively. CPA(R):14 also obtained $6,700 of limited recourse mortgage debt collateralized by the UTI Holdings, Inc. property in Mooresville, North Carolina, at an annual debt service of $587. CPA(R):14 has no mortgage balloon payments scheduled until February 2008. Substantially all of CPA(R):14's mortgages are limited recourse and bear interest at fixed rates. Accordingly, CPA(R):14's cash flow should not be adversely affected by increases in interest rates which are at or near historical lows. A lender on limited recourse mortgage debt has recourse only to the property collateralizing such debt and not to any of CPA(R):14's other assets. Unsecured financing would give a lender recourse to all of CPA(R): 14's assets. The use of limited recourse debt, therefore, will allow CPA(R):14 to limit its exposure of all of its assets to any one debt obligation. Management believes that the strategy of combining equity and limited recourse mortgage debt will allow CPA(R):14 to meet its short-term and long-term liquidity needs and will help to diversify CPA(R):14's portfolio and, therefore, reduce concentration of risk in any particular lessee. In 2002, CPA(R):14 purchased a participation in a mortgage pool consisting of $172,335 of newly-issued mortgage debt collateralized by properties and lease assignments on properties owned by CPA(R):14 and three affiliates. CPA(R):14 and the affiliates also purchased subordinated interests of $24,129 in which CPA(R):14 owns a 25% interest. The subordinated interests are payable only after all other classes of ownership receive their stated interest and related principal payments. The subordinated interests, therefore, will be affected by any defaults or nonpayment by lessees. As of December 31, 2003, there have been no defaults. Three Garden Ridge Corporation properties that are owned by affiliates are included in the mortgage pool and the lessee has filed a petition of bankruptcy. In the event the Garden Ridge leases are terminated, cash flow from this investment might be adversely affected. CPA(R):14 conducts business in Europe. While CPA(R):14 recognized foreign currency transaction gains in 2003 of $349 in connection with the transfer of cash from foreign subsidiaries, foreign currency transaction gains and losses were not material to CPA(R):14's results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2003. CPA(R):14 was not subject to material foreign currency exchange rate risk from the effects of changes in exchange rates. To date, -6- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) CPA(R):14 has not entered into any foreign currency forward exchange contracts or other derivative financial instruments to hedge the effects of adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. CPA(R):14 has obtained limited recourse mortgage financing at fixed rates of interest in the local currency. To the extent that currency fluctuations increase or decrease rental revenues as translated to dollars, the change in debt service, as translated to dollars, will partially offset the effect of fluctuations in revenue, and, to some extent mitigate the risk from changes in foreign currency rates. As of December 31, 2003, Carrefour, which leases properties in France, contributed 8% of lease revenues. The leverage used on the limited recourse financing of the Carrefour investments is higher than the average leverage on CPA(R):14's domestic real estate investments.

In connection with the purchase of its properties, CPA(R):14 requires the sellers to perform environmental reviews. Management believes, based on the results of such reviews, that CPA(R):14's properties were in substantial compliance with Federal and state environmental statutes at the time the properties were acquired. However, portions of certain properties have been subject to some degree of contamination, principally in connection with either leakage from underground storage tanks, surface spills from facility activities or historical on-site activities. In most instances where contamination has been identified, tenants are actively engaged in the remediation process and addressing identified conditions. Tenants are generally subject to environmental statutes and regulations regarding the discharge of hazardous materials and any related remediation obligations. In addition, CPA(R):14's leases generally require tenants to indemnify CPA(R):14 from all liabilities and losses related to the leased properties with provisions of such indemnification specifically addressing environmental matters. The leases generally include provisions which allow for periodic environmental assessments, paid for by the tenant, and allow CPA(R):14 to extend leases until such time as a tenant has satisfied its environmental obligations. Certain of the leases allow CPA(R):14 to require financial assurances from tenants such as performance bonds or letters of credit if the costs of remediating environmental conditions are, in the estimation of CPA(R):14, in excess of specified amounts. Accordingly, Management believes that the ultimate resolution of any environmental matter will not have a material adverse effect on CPA(R):14's financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Critical Accounting Estimates CPA(R):14 makes certain judgments and uses certain estimates and assumptions when applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. CPA(R):14 believes its most critical accounting estimates relate to its provision for uncollected amounts from lessees, potential impairment of assets, identification of discontinued operations, classification of real estate assets, determining the fair value of assets and liabilities which are "marked to market" but not actively traded in a public market and determining the interest to be capitalized in connection with real estate under construction. CPA(R):14's significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the financial statements. Certain policies, while significant, may not require the use of estimates. CPA(R):14 must assess its ability to collect rent and other tenant-based receivables and determine an appropriate charge for uncollected amounts. Because CPA(R):14's real estate operations have a limited number of lessees, Management believes that it is necessary to evaluate the collectibility of these receivables based on the facts and circumstances of each situation rather than solely use statistical methods. CPA(R):14 generally recognizes a provision -7- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) for uncollected rents which typically ranges between 0.25% and 1% of lease revenues (rental income and interest income from direct financing leases) and will measure its allowance against actual rent arrearages and adjust the percentage applied. For amounts in arrears, Management makes subjective judgments based on its knowledge of a lessee's circumstances and may reserve for the entire receivable amount from a lessee because there has been significant or continuing deterioration in the lessee's ability to meet its lease obligations. Under net leases, lessees are obligated to pay real estate taxes on behalf of CPA(R):14; however, when a lessee is in bankruptcy, CPA(R):14 may pay the tax obligation in order to preserve its interest in the property. If such a payment relates to a pre-petition period, CPA(R):14 may record such payment as an expense rather than as a receivable when it assumes the chance of reimbursement by the lessee is unlikely. Based on its actual experience in 2003, CPA(R):14 recorded a provision equal to approximately .5% of lease revenues. Operating real estate is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Costs directly related to build-to-suit projects, primarily interest, if applicable, are capitalized. Interest capitalized in 2003, 2002 and 2001 was $357, $808 and $1,986, respectively. CPA(R):14 considers a build-to-suit project as substantially completed upon the completion of improvements, but no later than a date that is negotiated and stated in the lease. If portions of a project are substantially completed and occupied and other portions have not yet reached that stage, the substantially completed portions are accounted for separately. CPA(R):14 allocates costs incurred between the portions under construction and the portions substantially completed and only capitalizes those costs associated with the portion under construction. CPA(R):14 does not have a credit facility and determines an interest rate to be applied for capitalizing interest based on an average rate on its outstanding limited recourse mortgage debt. CPA(R):14 classifies its directly-owned leased assets for financial reporting purposes as either real estate leased under the operating method or net investment in direct financing leases at the inception of a lease based on several criteria, including, but not limited to, estimates of the remaining economic life of the leased assets and the calculation of the present value of future minimum rents. In determining the classification of a lease, CPA(R):14 uses estimates of remaining economic life provided by independent appraisals of the leased assets. The calculation of the present value of future minimum rents includes determining a lease's implicit interest rate, which requires an estimate of the residual value of leased assets as of the end of the non-cancelable lease term. Different estimates of residual value result in different implicit interest rates and could possibly affect the financial reporting classification of leased assets. The contractual terms of CPA(R):14's leases are not necessarily different for operating and direct financing leases; however the classification is based on accounting pronouncements which are intended to indicate whether the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor or transferred to the lessee. Management believes that it retains certain risks of ownership regardless of accounting classification. Assets classified as direct financing leases are not depreciated and, therefore, the classification of assets may have a significant impact on net income even though it has no effect on cash flows. CPA(R):14 also uses estimates and judgments when evaluating whether long-lived assets are impaired. When events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a property accounted for under the operating method may not be recoverable, Management must first determine if the property will be held for use or held for sale. Management then performs projections of cash flows, and if such cash flows are insufficient, the assets are adjusted (i.e., written down) to their estimated fair value. An analysis of whether a real estate asset has been impaired requires Management to make its best estimate of market rents, residual values and holding periods. As CPA(R):14's investment objective is to hold properties on a long-term basis, holding periods will generally range from five to ten years. In its evaluations, CPA(R):14 obtains market information from outside sources; however, such information requires Management to determine whether the information received is appropriate to the circumstances. Depending on the assumptions made and estimates used, the estimated cash flow projected in the evaluation of long-lived assets can vary within a range of outcomes. Because CPA(R):14's properties are leased to single tenants, CPA(R):14 is more likely to incur significant writedowns when circumstances affecting a tenant deteriorate because of the possibility that a property will be vacated in its entirety. The risk of vacancy for single tenant properties is different from the risks faced by companies that own multi-tenant properties. Events or changes in circumstances can result in further writedowns and impact the gain or loss ultimately realized upon sale of the asset. For direct financing leases, CPA(R):14 performs a review of its estimated residual value of properties at least annually to determine whether there has been an other than temporary decline in CPA(R):14's current estimate of residual value of the underlying real estate assets of direct financing leases. If the review indicates a decline in residual values that is other than temporary, a loss is recognized and the accounting for the direct financing lease will be revised using -8- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) the changed estimate, that is, a portion of the future cash flow from the lessee will be recognized as a return of principal rather than as revenue. While an evaluation of potential impairment of real estate accounted for under the operating method is determined by a change in circumstances, the evaluation of a direct financing lease can be affected by changes in long-term market conditions even though the obligations of the lessee are being met. Changes in circumstances include, but are not limited to, vacancy of a property not subject to a lease and termination of a lease. CPA(R):14 may also assess properties for impairment because it expects a lease not to be renewed and the lease is within one year of its expiration, a lessee is experiencing financial difficulty and Management expects that there is a reasonable probability that the lease will be terminated in a bankruptcy organization or a property remains vacant for a period that exceeds the period anticipated in a prior impairment evaluation. When assets are identified by management as held for sale, CPA(R):14 discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets. If, in management's opinion, the net sales price of the assets which have been identified for sale is less than the net book value of the assets, an impairment charge is recognized, and a valuation allowance is established. To the extent that a purchase and sale agreement has been entered into, the allowance is based on the negotiated sales price. To the extent that CPA(R):14 has adopted a plan to sell an asset but has not entered into a sales agreement, it will make judgments of the net sales price based on current market information. Accordingly, the initial assessment may be greater or less than the purchase price subsequently committed to and may result in a further adjustment to the fair value of the property. If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used. A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell. In 2002, CPA(R):14 acquired a subordinated interest in a mortgage trust that consists of limited recourse loans on 62 properties that are owned by CPA(R):14 or three of its affiliates. The fair value of the interests in the trust is determined using a discounted cash flow model with assumptions of market rates and the credit quality of the underlying lessees. If there are adverse changes in either market rates or the credit quality of the lessees, the model and, therefore, the income recognized from the subordinated interests and the fair value will be adjusted. CPA(R):14 measures derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, if any, at fair value and records them as an asset or liability, depending on CPA(R):14's right or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the derivative instrument and the hedged item are recorded in earnings (i.e., the forecasted event occurs). For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of the derivatives are reported in other comprehensive income and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the affected period. To determine the value of warrants for common stock which are classified as derivatives, various estimates are included in the options pricing model used to determine the value of a warrant. In connection with the acquisition of properties, purchase costs will be allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated fair values. The value of the tangible assets, consisting of land, buildings and tenant improvements, will be determined as if vacant. Intangible assets including the above-market or below-market value of leases, the value of in-place leases and the value of tenant relationships will be recorded at their relative fair values. The value attributed to tangible assets will be determined in part using a discount cash flow model which is intended to approximate what a third party would pay to purchase the property as vacant and rent at "market" rates. In applying the model CPA(R):14 assumes that the disinterested party would sell the property at the end of a market lease term. Assumptions used in the model are property-specific as it is available; however, when certain necessary information is not available, CPA(R):14 will use available regional and property-type information. Assumptions and estimates include a discount rate or internal rate of return, marketing period necessary to put a lease in place, carrying costs during the marketing period, leasing commissions and tenant improvements allowances, market rents and growth factors of such rents, market lease term and a cap rate to be applied to an estimate of market rent at the end of the market lease term. -9- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) Above-market and below-market lease intangibles will be based on the difference between the market rent and the contractual rents and will be discounted to a present value using an interest rate reflecting CPA(R):14's assessment of the risk associated with the lease acquired. CPA(R):14 acquires properties subject to net leases and considers the credit of the lessee in negotiating the initial rent. The total amount of other intangible assets will be allocated to in-place lease values and tenant relationship intangible values based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease and our overall relationship with each tenant. Characteristics considered in allocating these values include the nature and extent of the existing relationship with the tenant, prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant's credit quality and the expectation of lease renewals, among other factors. The aggregate value of other intangible assets acquired will be measured based on the difference between (i) the property valued with an in-place lease adjusted to market rental rates and (ii) the property valued as if vacant. Independent appraisals or our estimates will be used to determine these values. Factors considered include the estimated carrying costs of the property during a hypothetical expected lease-up period, current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. Estimated carrying costs will include real estate taxes, insurance, other property operating costs and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the hypothetical expected lease-up periods, based on assessments of specific market conditions. Estimated costs to execute leases include commissions and legal costs to the extent that such costs are not already incurred with a new lease that has been negotiated in connection with the purchase of the property. Significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Accounting Pronouncements In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others," ("FIN 45") which changes the accounting for, and disclosure of certain guarantees. Beginning with transactions entered into after December 31, 2002, certain guarantees are required to be recorded at fair value, which is different from prior practice, under which a liability was recorded only when a loss was probable and reasonably estimable. In general, the change applies to contracts or indemnification agreements that contingently require CPA(R):14 to make payments to a guaranteed third-party based on changes in an underlying asset, liability, or an equity security of the guaranteed party. The adoption of the accounting provisions of FIN 45 on January 1, 2003 did not have a material effect on CPA(R):14's financial statements. In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation. SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock based compensation (i.e., recognition of a charge for issuance of stock options in the determination of income.). However, SFAS No. 148 does not permit the use of the original SFAS No. 123 prospective method of transition for changes to the fair value based method made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2003. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock based employee compensation, description of transition method utilized and the effect of the method used on reported results. The transition and annual disclosure provisions for valuing stock-based compensation of SFAS No. 148 are to be applied for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. CPA(R):14 does not have any employees nor any stock-based compensation plans. On January 17, 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), the primary objective of which is to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights ("variable interest entities" or "VIEs") and to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the "primary beneficiary"). In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised FIN 46 which modifies and clarifies various aspects of the original Interpretation. FIN 46 applies when either (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of controlling financial interest, (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity's activities without additional subordinated financial support or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interest. In addition FIN 46 requires additional disclosures. -10- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED (dollar amounts in thousands) FIN 46 is effective immediately for VIEs created after January 31, 2003, and to VIEs in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. For variable interests in a VIE created or obtained prior to February 1, 2003, FIN 46 is effective for periods ending after March 15, 2004. CPA(R):14 has evaluated the potential impact and believes this interpretation will not have a material impact on its accounting for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as none of these investments are VIEs. CPA(R):14's maximum loss exposure is the carrying value of its equity investments. On April 30, 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging under SFAS No. 133. The changes in the statement improve financial reporting by requiring that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly. In particular, the statement (1) clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristics of a derivative instrument discussed in paragraph 6(b) of SFAS No. 133, (2) clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component, (3) amends the definition of an underlying to conform it to language used in FIN 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others", and (4) amends certain other existing pronouncements. SFAS No. 149 is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of FASB No. 149 did not have a material effect on the financial statements. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for the classification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). In particular, it requires that mandatorily redeemable financial instruments be classified as liabilities and reported at fair value and that changes in their fair values be reported as interest cost. This statement was effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective for CPA(R):14 as of July 1, 2003. On November 7, 2003, the FASB indefinitely deferred the classification and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 150 as they apply to certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests. This deferral is expected to remain in effect while these provisions are further evaluated by the FASB. Based on the FASB's deferral of this provision, the adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material effect on CPA(R):14's financial statements. -11- REPORT of INDEPENDENT AUDITORS To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Corporate Property Associates 14 Incorporated: In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Corporate Property Associates 14 Incorporated and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Noncash operating, investing and financing activities: In connection with the acquisition of properties during the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company assumed mortgage payable obligations of $2,076. During 2002, a security deposit of $5,287,500 was assigned to a lender. (a) Excludes changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses and accounts payable to affiliates balances that relate to the raising of capital (financing activities) rather than the Company's real estate operations. (b) Included in the cost basis of real estate investments acquired in 2003, 2002 and 2001 are deferred acquisition fees payable of $1,733, $6,146 and $6,554, respectively. The accompanying notes are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements. -17- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Basis of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Corporate Property Associates 14 Incorporated, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and controlling majority-owned interests in limited liability companies and partnerships (collectively, the "Company"). The Company is not the primary beneficiary of any variable interest entity. All material inter-entity transactions have been eliminated. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates will relate to the assessment of recoverability of real estate assets and investments, classification of real estate leased by others and identification of any intangible assets identified in connection with asset acquisitions. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Real Estate Leased to Others: Real estate is leased to others on a net lease basis, whereby the tenant is generally responsible for all operating expenses relating to the property, including property taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs, renewals and improvements. For the year ended December 31, 2003, lessees were responsible for the direct payment of real estate taxes of approximately $13,197. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs including routine betterments are charged to operations as incurred, significant renovations which increase the useful life of the properties are capitalized. The Company diversifies its real estate investments among various corporate tenants engaged in different industries and by property type. The leases are accounted for under either the operating or direct financing method. Such methods are described below: Operating method - Real estate is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and expenses (including depreciation) are charged to operations as incurred. Direct financing method - Leases accounted for under the direct financing method are recorded at their net investment (Note 5). Unearned income is deferred and amortized to income over the lease terms so as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the Company's net investment in the lease. When events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets, including residual interests of real estate assets and investments, based on projections of undiscounted cash flows, without interest charges, over the life of such assets. In the event that such cash flows are insufficient, the assets are adjusted to their estimated fair value. Residual values of direct financing leases are reviewed at least annually. If a decline in the estimated residual value is other than temporary, the accounting for the net investment in direct financing lease will be revised using the changed estimate. The resulting reduction in the net investment in the direct financing lease is recognized as a loss in the period in which the estimate is changed. -18- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts In connection with the Company's acquisition of properties, purchase costs are allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated fair values. The value of the tangible assets, consisting of land, buildings and tenant improvements, are determined as if vacant. Intangible assets including the above-market or below-market value of leases, the value of in-place leases and the value of tenant relationships are recorded at their relative fair values. Above-market and below-market in-place lease values for owned properties are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate reflecting the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the leases negotiated and in-place at the time of acquisition of the properties and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for the property or equivalent property, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market lease value is amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable term of each lease. The capitalized below-market lease value is amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term and any fixed rate renewal periods in the respective leases. The total amount of other intangible assets is allocated to in-place lease values and tenant relationship intangible values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant's lease and the Company's overall relationship with each tenant. Characteristics considered in allocating these values include the nature and extent of the existing relationship with the tenant, prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant's credit quality and the expectation of lease renewals, among other factors. The aggregate value of other intangible assets acquired will be measured based on the difference between (i) the property valued with an in-place lease adjusted to market rental rates and (ii) the property valued as if vacant. Independent appraisals or management's estimates are used to determine these values. Factors considered in the analysis include the estimated carrying costs of the property during a hypothetical expected lease-up period, current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. The Company also considers information obtained about a property in connection with its pre-acquisition due diligence. Estimated carrying costs include real estate taxes, insurance, other property operating costs and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the hypothetical expected lease-up periods, based on management's assessment of specific market conditions. Estimated costs to execute leases, including commissions and legal costs to the extent that such costs are not already incurred with a new lease that has been negotiated in connection with the purchase of the property, are also considered. The value of in-place leases will be amortized to expense over the remaining initial term of each lease. The value of tenant relationship intangibles will be amortized to expense over the initial and renewal terms of the leases but no amortization period for intangible assets will exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. For properties under construction, operating expenses including interest charges are capitalized rather than expensed and rentals received are recorded as a reduction of capitalized project (i.e., construction) costs. Substantially all of the Company's leases provide for either scheduled rent increases, periodic rent increases based on formulas indexed to increases in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") or sales overrides. Rents from sales overrides (percentage rent) are recognized as reported by lessees, that is, after the level of sales requiring a rental payment to the Company is reached. Assets Held For Sale: Assets held for sale are accounted for at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to dispose. Assets are classified as held for sale when the Company has committed to a plan to actively market a property for sale and expects that a sale will be completed within one year. The results of operations and the related gain or loss on sale of properties classified as held for sale by the Company after December 31, 2001, are included in discontinued operations. If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used. A property that is -19- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying amount before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell, or (c) the current carrying value. The Company recognizes gains and losses on the sale of properties when among other criteria, the parties are bound by the terms of the contract, all consideration has been exchanged and all conditions precedent to closing have been performed. At the time the sale is consummated, a gain or loss is recognized as the difference between the sale price less any closing costs and the carrying value of the property. Depreciation: Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the properties - generally 40 years. Depreciation of tenant improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the remaining term of the lease. Equity Investments: The Company's interests in entities in which the entity is not considered to be a VIE, the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary and the Company's ownership is 50% or less, and has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for under the equity method, i.e. at cost, increased or decreased by the Company's share of earnings or losses, less distributions. Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to cash and have a maturity of generally three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Items classified as cash equivalents include commercial paper and money market funds. Substantially all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2003 and 2002 were held in the custody of two financial institutions, and which balances at times exceed federally insurable limits. The Company mitigates this risk by depositing funds with major financial institutions. Foreign Currency Translation: The Company consolidates its real estate investments in the Netherlands, Finland, France and the United Kingdom. The functional currencies for these investments are the Euro and British Pound. The translation from these local currencies to the U.S. dollar is performed for assets and liabilities using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenue and expense accounts using a weighted average exchange rate during the period. The gains and losses resulting from such translation are reported as a component of other comprehensive income as part of shareholders' equity. As of December 31, 2003, the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment gain was $10,252. Foreign currency transactions may produce receivables or payables that are fixed in terms of the amount of foreign currency that will be received or paid. A change in the exchange rates between the functional currency and the currency in which a transaction is denominated increases or decreases the expected amount of functional currency cash flows upon settlement of that transaction. That increase or decrease in the expected functional currency cash flows is a foreign currency transaction gain or loss that generally will be included in determining net income for the period in which the exchange rate changes. Likewise, a transaction gain or loss (measured from the transaction date or the most recent intervening balance sheet date) whichever is later, realized upon settlement of a foreign currency transaction generally will be included in net income for the period in which the transaction is settled. Foreign currency transactions that are (i) designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of a net investment and (ii) intercompany foreign currency transactions that are of a long-term nature (that is, settlement is not planned or anticipated in the foreseeable future), when the entities to the transactions are consolidated or accounted for by the equity method in the Company's financial statements will not be included in -20- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts determining net income but will be accounted for in the same manner as foreign currency translation adjustments and reported as a component of other comprehensive income as part of shareholder's equity. The contributions to the equity investments were funded in part through subordinated debt. Foreign currency intercompany transactions that are scheduled for settlement, consisting primarily of accrued interest and the translation to the reporting currency of intercompany subordinated debt with scheduled principal repayments, are included in the determination of net income, and, for the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recognized unrealized gains of $720 from such transactions. In 2003, the Company recognized realized gains of $349 on foreign currency transactions, in connection with the transfer of cash from foreign operations of subsidiaries to the parent company. Marketable Securities: Marketable securities are classified as available for sale securities and reported at fair value with the Company's interest in unrealized gains and losses on these securities reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) until realized. Such marketable securities had a cost basis of $5,894 and $6,001 and reflected a fair value of $6,792 and $6,258 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Other Assets: Included in other assets are deferred rental income and deferred charges. Deferred rental income is the aggregate difference for operating method leases between scheduled rents which vary during the lease term and rent recognized on a straight-line basis. Deferred charges are costs incurred in connection with mortgage financing, and structuring leases. Such financing and lease costs are amortized over the terms of the mortgages and leases and included in interest expense and property expense, respectively. Derivative Instruments: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" established accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments. Stock warrants granted to the Company by lessees in connection with structuring the initial lease transactions are defined as derivative instruments if such stock warrants are readily convertible to cash or provide for net settlement upon conversion. Pursuant to SFAS No. 133, changes in the fair value of such derivative instruments as determined using an option pricing model are recognized currently in earnings as gains or losses. The Company recognized an unrealized loss of $20 and an unrealized gain of $385 in 2003 and 2002, respectively on warrants issued to the Company by PW Eagle, Inc., American Tire Distributors, Inc. and Consolidated Theaters Holding, G.P. No unrealized gain or loss were recognized in 2001. The Company also holds stock warrants which were not defined as derivative instruments and have been recorded at nominal values. The Company has only recognized unrealized gains or losses on stock warrants that are derivative instruments. A lease for a property located in the Netherlands provides the Company with an option to receive a portion of rental payments in Euros or U.S. dollars. Pursuant to the adoption of SFAS No. 133, the option is a derivative instrument and changes in the fair value of the option are recognized in earnings as gains or losses. An unrealized gain on the option of $78 was recognized in 2001 and unrealized losses of $29 and $30 were recognized in 2003 and 2002, respectively. As of December 31, 2003, the Company's cumulative unrealized foreign currency gain was $19. Costs of Raising Capital: Costs incurred in connection with the raising of capital through the sale of common stock are charged to shareholders' equity upon the issuance of shares. Treasury Stock: Treasury stock is recorded at cost. -21- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts Deferred Acquisition Fees: Fees are payable for services provided by W. P. Carey & Co. LLC (the "Advisor"), an affiliate, to the Company relating to the identification, evaluation, negotiation, financing and purchase of properties. A portion of such fees are deferred and are payable in annual installments with each installment equal to .25% of the purchase price of the properties over no less than eight years following the first anniversary of the date a property was purchased. Payment of such fees is subject to the Preferred Return (see Note 3). Earnings Per Share: The Company has a simple equity capital structure with only common stock outstanding. As a result, the Company has presented basic per-share amounts only for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Federal Income Taxes: The Company is qualified as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") as of December 31, 2003 as defined under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The Company is not subject to Federal income taxes on amounts distributed to shareholders provided it distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its shareholders and meets certain other conditions. The Company and subsidiaries are subject to state and local and foreign taxes, which aggregate $255 in 2003 and $152 in 2002, and are included in general and administrative expenses. Operating Segments Accounting standards have been established for the way public business enterprises report selected information about operating segments and guidelines for defining the operating segment of an enterprise. The Company has reported its real estate operations both domestically and internationally (see Note 11). Reclassification: Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year's financial statement presentation. Accounting Pronouncements: In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others," ("FIN 45") which changes the accounting for, and disclosure of certain guarantees. Beginning with transactions entered into after December 31, 2002, certain guarantees are required to be recorded at fair value, which is different from prior practice, under which a liability was recorded only when a loss was probable and reasonably estimable. In general, the change applies to contracts or indemnification agreements that contingently require the Company to make payments to a guaranteed third-party based on changes in an underlying asset, liability, or an equity security of the guaranteed party. The adoption of the accounting provisions of FIN 45 on January 1, 2003 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation. SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock based compensation (i.e., recognition of a charge for issuance of stock options in the determination of income.). However, SFAS No. 148 does not permit the use of the original SFAS No. 123 prospective method of transition for changes to the fair value based method made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2003. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock based employee compensation, description of transition method utilized and the effect of the method used on reported results. -22- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts The transition and annual disclosure provisions for valuing stock-based compensation of SFAS No. 148 are to be applied for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The Company does not have any employees nor any stock-based compensation plans. On January 17, 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"), the primary objective of which is to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights ("variable interest entities" or "VIEs") and to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the "primary beneficiary"). In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised FIN 46 which modifies and clarifies various aspects of the original Interpretation. FIN 46 applies when either (1) the equity investors (if any) lack one or more of the essential characteristics of controlling financial interest, (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity's activities without additional subordinated financial support or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interest. In addition FIN 46 requires additional disclosures. FIN 46 is effective immediately for VIEs created after January 31, 2003, and to VIEs in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. For variable interests in a VIE created or obtained prior to February 1, 2003, FIN 46 is effective for periods ending after March 15, 2004. The Company has evaluated the potential impact and believes this interpretation will not have a material impact on its accounting for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as none of these investments are VIEs. The Company's maximum loss exposure is the carrying value of its equity investments. On April 30, 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging under SFAS No. 133. The changes in the statement improve financial reporting by requiring that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for similarly. In particular, the statement (1) clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristics of a derivative instrument discussed in paragraph 6(b) of SFAS No. 133, (2) clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component, (3) amends the definition of an underlying to conform it to language used in FIN 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others", and (4) amends certain other existing pronouncements. SFAS No. 149 is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not have a material effect on the financial statements. In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for the classification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). In particular, it requires that mandatorily redeemable financial instruments be classified as liabilities and reported at fair value and that changes in their fair values be reported as interest cost. This statement was effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective for CPA(R):14 as of July 1, 2003. On November 7, 2003, the FASB indefinitely deferred the classification and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 150 as they apply to certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests. This deferral is expected to remain in effect while these provisions are further evaluated by the FASB. Based on the FASB's deferral of this provision, the adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. 2. Organization and Offering: The Company was formed on June 4, 1997 under the General Corporation Law of Maryland for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in and owning industrial and commercial real estate. Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, the business of the Company is managed by the Advisor. -23- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts An initial offering of the Company's shares which commenced on November 10, 1997 concluded on November 10, 1999 at which time the Company had issued an aggregate of 29,440,594 shares ($294,406). On November 17, 1999, the Company commenced an offering for a maximum of 40,000,000 shares of common stock. The shares were offered to the public on a "best efforts" basis at a price of $10 per share. The second offering concluded on November 15, 2001, by which time 36,353,686 shares ($363,537) were issued. 3. Transactions with Related Parties: In connection with performing services on behalf of the Company, the Advisory Agreement between the Company and the Advisor provides that the Advisor receive asset management and performance fees, each of which are -1/2 of 1/% of Average Invested Assets as defined in the Advisory Agreement. The performance fee is subordinated to the Preferred Return, a cumulative rate of cash flow from operations of 7%. The Advisor has elected at its option to receive the performance fee in restricted shares of common stock of the Company rather than cash. The Advisor is also reimbursed for the actual cost of personnel needed to provide administrative services necessary to the operation of the Company. The Company incurred asset management fees of $7,550, $5,514 and $3,592 in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, with performance fees in like amount. The Company incurred personnel reimbursements of $3,088, $2,234 and $1,372 in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Fees are payable to the Advisor for services provided to the Company relating to the identification, evaluation, negotiation, financing and purchase of properties and refinancing of mortgages. A portion of such fees are deferred and payable in equal installments over no less than eight years following the first anniversary of the date a property was purchased. Such deferred fees are only payable if the Preferred Return has been met. The unpaid portion of the deferred fees bears interest at an annual rate of 6% from the date of acquisition of a property until paid. For transactions and refinancings that were completed in 2003, 2002 and 2001, current fees were $2,166, $8,489 and $8,193, respectively and deferred fees were $1,733, $6,773 and $6,554, respectively. The Advisor is obligated to reimburse the Company for the amount by which operating expenses of the Company exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines (the greater of 2% of Average Invested Assets or 25% of Net Income) as defined in the Advisory Agreement for any twelve-month period. If in any year the operating expenses of the Company exceed the 2%/25% Guidelines, the Advisor will have an obligation to reimburse the Company for such excess, subject to certain conditions. Only if the Independent Directors find that such excess expenses were justified based on any unusual and nonrecurring factors which they deem sufficient, the Advisor may be paid in future years for the full amount or any portion of such excess expenses, but only to the extent that such reimbursement would not cause the Company's operating expenses to exceed this limit in any such year. Charges related to asset impairment, bankruptcy of lessees, lease payment defaults, extinguishment of debt or uninsured losses are generally not considered unusual and nonrecurring. A determination that a charge is unusual and nonrecurring, such as the costs of significant litigation that are not associated with day-to day operations, or uninsured losses that are beyond the size or scope of the usual course of business based on the event history and experience of the Advisor and Independent Directors, is made at the sole discretion of the Independent Directors. The Company will record any reimbursement of operating expenses as a liability until any contingencies are resolved and will record the reimbursement as a reduction of asset management and performance fees at such time that a reimbursement is fixed, determinable and irrevocable. The operating expenses of the Company have not exceeded the amount that would require the Advisor to reimburse the Company. The Advisor will be entitled to receive subordinated disposition fees based upon the cumulative proceeds arising from the sale of Company assets since the inception of the Company, subject to certain conditions. Pursuant to the subordination provisions of the Advisory Agreement, the disposition fees may be paid only after the shareholders receive 100% of their initial investment from the proceeds of asset sales and a cumulative annual return of 6% (based on an initial share price of $10) since the inception of the Company. The Advisor's interest in such disposition fees amounts to $240 as of December 31, 2003. Payment of such amount, however, cannot be made until the subordination provisions are met. The Company has concluded that payment of such disposition fees is probable and all fees from completed property sales have been accrued. Subordinated disposition fees are included in the determination of realized gain or loss on the sale of properties. The obligation for disposition fees is included in due to affiliates in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. -24- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts The Company owns interests in entities which range from 33 1/3% to 90% and a jointly-controlled 50% tenancy-in-common interest in two properties subject to a net lease with the remaining interests held by affiliates. The Company has a significant influence in these investments, which are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company is a participant in an agreement with certain affiliates for the purpose of leasing office space used for the administration of real estate entities and for sharing the associated costs. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company's share of rental, occupancy and leasehold improvement costs is based on gross revenues. Expenses incurred in 2003, 2002 and 2001 were $470, $376 and $237, respectively. The Company's current share of future minimum lease payments is $1,026 through 2006. 4.

Equity Investments: The Company owns interests in properties leased to corporations through non-controlling interests. The ownership interests range from 33.33% to 50%. Contributions, distributions and allocations of income or loss from the equity investees are based on ownership percentages and no fees are paid by the Company or the partnerships to any of the general partners of the limited partnerships. All of the underlying investments are owned with affiliates that have similar investment objectives as the -25- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts Company. The lessees are Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Compucom Systems, Inc., Textron, Inc., Special Devices, Inc., Applied Materials, Inc. and CheckFree Holdings, Inc., Clear Channel Communications, Inc. and TruServ Corporation. The Company along with two affiliates, CPA(R):12 and Corporate Property Associates 15 Incorporated ("CPA(R):15") formed a limited liability company and, on February 7, 2003, entered into a net lease with Starmark Camhood, L.L.C. ("Starmark"). Summarized combined financial information of the Company's equity investees is as follows:
December 31, ------------------------ 2003 2002 ---- ----- Assets (primarily real estate) $781,144 $591,167 Liabilities (primarily limited recourse mortgage notes payable) 471,052 329,330 Members' equity 310,092 261,837

On February 7, 2003, the Company, CPA(R):12 and CPA(R):15, through a newly-formed limited liability company with ownership interests of 41%, 15% and 44%, respectively, purchased land and 15 health club facilities for $178,010 and entered into a master net lease with Starmark. The lease obligations of Starmark are jointly unconditionally guaranteed by seven of its affiliates. The Starmark lease provides for an initial lease term of 20 years with three ten-year renewal terms. Annual rent is initially $18,272 with CPI-based increases scheduled in November 2006, 2010, 2014, 2018 and 2021. $167 of annual rent will not be included in the determination of the future rent increases. In connection with the purchase, the limited liability company obtained first mortgage limited recourse financing of $88,300 and a mezzanine loan of $20,000. The first mortgage provides for monthly payments of interest and principal of $564 at an annual interest rate of 6.6% and based on a 30-year amortization schedule. The loan matures in March 2013 at which time a balloon payment is scheduled. The mezzanine loan provides for monthly payments of interest and principal of $277 at an annual interest rate of 11.15% and will fully amortize over its ten-year term. The limited liability company was granted 5,276 warrants for Class C Unit interests in Starmark that represent a 5% interest in Starmark. The warrants may be exercised at any time through February 7, 2023 at an exercise price of $430 per unit. The warrant agreement does not provide for a cashless exercise of units. 7. Mortgage Financing Through Securitization: In 2002, the Company and three affiliates, W.P. Carey & Co. LLC ("W. P. Carey"), Carey Institutional Properties Incorporated ("CIP(R)") and Corporate Property Associates 12 Incorporated ("CPA(R):12") obtained an aggregate of approximately $172,335 of limited recourse mortgage financing collateralized by 62 leased properties. The lender pooled the loans into a trust, Carey Commercial Mortgage Trust, a non-affiliate, whose assets consist solely of the loans, and sold the interests in the trust as collateralized mortgage obligations in a private placement to institutional investors (the "Offered Interests"). The Company and the three affiliates acquired a separate class of subordinated interests in the trust (the "CPA(R) Interests"). The amount of CPA(R) Interests acquired by the Company was proportional to the mortgage amounts obtained. All of the mortgage loans provide for payments of principal and interest at an annual rate of 7.5% and are based on a 25-year amortization schedule. Each loan is collateralized by mortgages on the properties and lease assignments. Under the lease assignments, the lessees direct their rent payment to the mortgage servicing company which in turn -26- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts distributes amounts in excess of debt service requirements to the applicable lessors. Under certain limited conditions, a property may be released from its mortgage by the substitution of another property. Such substitution is subject to the approval of the trustee of the trust. The initial Offered Interests consisted of $148,206 of mortgage loan balances with different tranches of principal entitled to distributions at annual interest rates as follows: $119,772 - 5.97%, $9,478 - 6.58%, $9,478 - 7.18% and $9,478 - 8.43%. The assumed final distribution dates for the four classes of Offered Interests range from December 2011 through March 2012. The CPA(R) Interests were purchased for $24,129 of which the Company's share was $6,032, or 25%, and are comprised of two components, a component that will receive payments of principal and interest and a component that will receive payments of interest only. The CPA(R) Interests are subordinated to the Offered Interests and will be payable only when and if all distributions to the Offered Interests are current. The assumed final distribution date for the CPA(R) Interests is June 30, 2012. The distributions to be paid to the CPA(R) Interests do not have a stated rate of interest and will be affected by any shortfall in rents received from the lessees or defaults at the mortgaged properties. As of the purchase date, the Company's cost basis attributable to the principal and interest and interest only components was $3,612 and $2,420, respectively. Over the term of its ownership interest in the CPA(R) Interests, the value of the interest only component will fully amortize to $0 and the principal and interest component will amortize to its anticipated face value of its share in the underlying mortgages (which currently is $6,032). For financial reporting purposes, the effect of such amortization is reflected in interest income. Interest income, including all related amortization, is recognized using an effective interest method. The Company is accounting for its interest in the CPA(R) Interests as an available-for-sale security and it is measured at fair value with all gains and losses from changes in fair value reported as a component of other comprehensive income as part of shareholders' equity. The fair value of the Company's CPA(R) Interests was $6,792 and $6,258, reflecting an unrealized gain of $898 and $257 and accumulated amortization of $138 and $31 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The fair value of the interests in the trust is determined using a discounted cash flow model with assumptions of market rates and the credit quality of the underlying lessees. The key variable in determining the fair value of the CPA(R) Interests is current interest rates. As required by SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfer and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," a sensitivity analysis of the current value of the CPA(R) Interests based on adverse changes in the market interest rates of 1% and 2% as of December 31, 2003 is as follows:
Actual 1% Adverse Change 2% Adverse Change ------ ----------------- ----------------- Fair value of CPA(R) Interests $6,792 $6,461 $6,152
The above sensitivity is hypothetical and changes in fair value, based on a 1% or 2% variation, should not be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not always be linear. 8. Mortgage Notes Payable: Mortgage notes payable, all of which are limited recourse to the Company, are collateralized by an assignment of various leases and by real property with a carrying value of $1,069,454. As of December 31, 2003, mortgage notes payable had fixed interest rates ranging from 6.09% to 8.85% and variable interest rates ranging from 3.12% to 6.49% and maturity dates ranging from 2008 to 2026. Scheduled principal payments during each of the five years following December 31, 2003 are as follows:

Scott has rent arrearages of $474 as of December 31, 2003 and as a result of its financial difficulties has defaulted on its lease. The Company has written down the property to its estimated fair value and recognized an impairment charge of $2,900. In connection with the Company's annual review of the estimated residual values on its properties classified as net investments in direct financing leases, the Company determined that an other than temporary decline in estimated residual value had occurred at its property in Mooresville, North Carolina leased to NASCAR Technical Institute, Inc., and the accounting for the direct financing lease was revised using the changed estimates. The resulting change in estimate resulted in the recognition of an impairment charge of $203. 2001 The Company purchased a property in Daleville, Indiana in June 1998 and entered into a net lease with Burlington Motor Carriers, Inc. ("Burlington"). Subsequent to Burlington's petition of bankruptcy, the lease was terminated. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $3,810 on the Burlington property in 2001. 13. Purchases of Real Estate: On July 24, 2003, the Company completed an expansion at its existing facility in Le Mans, France leased to Carrefour France SAS ("Carrefour") at a cost of E9,068 ($10,422 based on the exchange rate at the completion date) and amended and restated its existing lease with Carrefour. The amended and restated lease has a remaining term through March 2011 and provides for an increase in annual rent of E870 to E2,307 ($2,651), with annual rent increases based on a formula indexed to increases in the INSEE, a French construction cost index. -30- CORPORATE PROPERTY ASSOCIATES 14 INCORPORATED NOTES to CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts In connection with the expansion, the Company obtained E7,137 ($8,203) of limited recourse mortgage financing collateralized by the property. The loan provides for quarterly payments of interest at an annual interest rate of 5.15%. The interest rate is fixed through July 2010, at which time the loan will convert to a variable rate. Principal installments are payable based on an initial 2.60% annuity per annum, with scheduled increases throughout the term of the loan. The loan matures on April 30, 2017, at which time a balloon payment is scheduled. 14.

The provisions of SFAS No. 144 are effective for disposal activities initiated by the Company's commitment to a plan of disposition after the date it is initially applied (January 1, 2002). Properties held for sale as of December 31, 2001 are not included in discontinued operations. No properties are held for sale as of December 31, 3003.
