CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Form 10-K of Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P. (the “Partnership” or the “Registrant”) other than historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies, and prospects and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” or other similar words. Specifically, we consider, among others, statements concerning future operating results and cash flows, our ability to meet future obligations, and the amount and timing of any future distributions to limited partners to be forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date this report is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We make no representations or warranties (express or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-K, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Any such forward-looking statements are subject to unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors and are based on a number of assumptions involving judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive, and market conditions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately. To the extent that our assumptions differ from actual results, our ability to meet such forward-looking statements, including our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations, provide dividends to stockholders, and maintain the value of our real estate properties, may be significantly hindered. Contained in Item 1A. are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements.

WELLS REAL ESTATE FUND VIII, L.P.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

General

Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a Georgia public limited partnership with Leo Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P. (“Wells Partners”), a Georgia nonpublic limited partnership, serving as its general partners (collectively, the “General Partners”). Wells Capital, Inc. (“Wells Capital”) serves as the corporate general partner of Wells Partners. Wells Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Real Estate Funds, Inc. (“WREF”). Leo F. Wells, III is the president and sole director of Wells Capital and the president, sole director, and sole owner of WREF. The Partnership was formed on August 15, 1994 for the purpose of acquiring, developing, owning, operating, improving, leasing, and otherwise managing income-producing commercial properties for investment purposes. Upon subscription, limited partners elected to have their units treated as Class A Units or Class B Units. Limited partners have the right to change their prior elections to have some or all of their units treated as Class A Units or Class B Units one time during each quarterly accounting period (“conversion elections”). Limited partners may vote to, among other things, (a) amend the partnership agreement, subject to certain limitations; (b) change the business purpose or investment objectives of the Partnership; and (c) add or remove a general partner. A majority vote on any of the above described matters will bind the Partnership, without the concurrence of the General Partners. Each limited partnership unit has equal voting rights, regardless of class.

On January 6, 1995, the Partnership commenced a public offering of up to $35,000,000 of Class A or Class B limited partnership units ($10 per unit) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 filed under the Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership commenced active operations upon receiving and accepting subscriptions for 125,000 units on February 24, 1995. The offering was terminated on January 4, 1996, at which time the Partnership had sold approximately 2,613,534 Class A Units and 590,735 Class B Units representing capital contributions of $32,042,689 from investors who were admitting to the Partnership as limited partners.

Operating Phases and Objectives

The Partnership typically operates in the following five life cycle phases and, during which, typically focuses on the following key operating objectives. The duration of each phase is dependent upon various economic, industry, market, and other internal/external factors. Some overlap naturally exists in the transition from one phase to the next.

• Fundraising phase

The period during which the Partnership is raising capital through the sale and issuance of limited partner units to the public;

• Investing phase

The period during which the Partnership invests the capital raised during the fundraising phase, less upfront fees, into the acquisition of real estate assets;

• Holding phase

The period during which the Partnership owns and operates its real estate assets during the initial lease terms of the tenants;

• Positioning-for-sale phase

The period during which the leases in place at the time of acquisition expire and, thus, the Partnership expends time, effort, and funds to re-lease such space to existing and/or new tenants. Following the holding phase, the Partnership continues to own and operate the real estate assets, evaluate various options for disposition, and market the real estate assets for sale; and

Page 2

• Disposition-and-liquidation phase

The period during which the Partnership sells its real estate investments, distributes net sale proceeds to the partners, liquidates, and terminates the Partnership.

We are in the disposition-and-liquidation phase of our life cycle. Our focus on the remaining assets involves leasing and marketing efforts that are believed to result in the best disposition pricing for the limited partners.

Employees

The Partnership has no direct employees. The employees of Wells Capital and Wells Management Company, Inc. (“Wells Management”), an affiliate of the General Partners, perform a full range of real estate services for the Partnership including leasing and property management, accounting, asset management, and investor relations. See Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions,” for a summary of the fees paid to the General Partners or their affiliates during the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005.

Insurance

Wells Management carries comprehensive liability and extended coverage with respect to the properties we own through our interests in joint ventures. In the opinion of management, our properties are adequately insured.

Competition

We will experience competition for tenants from owners and managers of competing projects which may include the General Partners or their affiliates. As a result, in connection with negotiating leases, we may offer rental concessions, reduced charges for tenant improvements, and other inducements, all of which may have an adverse impact on results of operations. We are also in competition with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for its properties.

Economic Dependency

We have engaged Wells Capital and Wells Management to provide certain essential services for us, including supervision of the management and leasing of our properties, asset acquisition and disposition services, as well as other administrative responsibilities, including accounting services and investor communications and relations. These agreements are terminable by either party upon 60 days’ written notice. As a result of these relationships, we are dependent upon Wells Capital and Wells Management.

Wells Capital and Wells Management are all owned and controlled by WREF. The operations of Wells Capital and Wells Management represent substantially all of the business of WREF. Accordingly, we focus on the financial condition of WREF when assessing the financial condition of Wells Capital and Wells Management. In the event that WREF were to become unable to meet its obligations as they become due, we might be required to find alternative service providers.

Future net income generated by WREF will be largely dependent upon the amount of fees earned by Wells Capital and Wells Management based on, among other things, the level of investor proceeds raised from the sale of common stock for certain WREF-sponsored programs and the volume of future acquisitions and dispositions of real estate assets by WREF-sponsored programs, as well as anticipated dividend income earned from its holdings of common stock of Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (“Piedmont REIT”), formerly known as Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. In addition, as of December 31, 2007, WREF guaranteed certain unsecured debt of another WREF-sponsored product that is in the start-up phase of its operations. As of February 29, 2008, the amount of the debt guaranteed by WREF was equal to approximately $139.7 million. As of December 31, 2007, the General Partners believe that WREF generates adequate cash flow from operations and has adequate liquidity available in the form of cash on hand and current receivables necessary to meet its current and future obligations as they become due.

Page 3

We are also dependent upon the ability of our current tenants to pay their contractual rent amounts as they become due. The inability of a tenant to pay future rental amounts would have a negative impact on our results of operations. We are not aware of any reason why our current tenants will not be able to pay their contractual rental amounts as they become due in all material respects. Situations preventing our tenants from paying contractual rents could result in a material adverse impact on our results of operations.

Proxy to Liquidate

Under Section 20.2 of the partnership agreement, limited partners holding 10% or more of the outstanding units have the right, at any time commencing eight years after the termination of the Partnership’s offering of units (January 4, 2004), to provide a written request to the General Partners directing the General Partners to formally proxy the limited partners to determine whether the assets of the Partnership should be liquidated.

Assertion of Legal Actions Against Related-Parties

On March 12, 2007, a stockholder of Piedmont REIT, filed a putative class action and derivative complaint, styled Washtenaw County Employees’ Retirement System v. Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., et al., in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland against, among others, Piedmont REIT; Leo F. Wells, III, one of our general partners; Wells Capital, the corporate general partner of Wells Partners, our other general partner; Wells Management, our property manager; certain affiliates of WREF; the directors of Piedmont REIT; and certain individuals who formerly served as officers or directors of Piedmont REIT prior to the closing of the internalization transaction on April 16, 2007. The complaint alleges, among other things, violations of the federal proxy rules and breaches of fiduciary duty arising from the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction and the related proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 26, 2007, as amended. The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages and nullification of the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction. On April 9, 2007, the District Court denied the plaintiff’s motion for an order enjoining the internalization transaction. On April 17, 2007, the Court granted the defendants’ motion to transfer venue to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, and the case was docketed in the Northern District of Georgia on April 24, 2007. On June 7, 2007, the Court granted a motion to designate the class lead plaintiff and class co-lead counsel. On June 27, 2007, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which attempts to assert class action claims on behalf of those persons who received and were entitled to vote on the Piedmont REIT proxy statement filed with the SEC on February 26, 2007, and derivative claims on behalf of Piedmont REIT. On July 9, 2007, the Court denied the plaintiff’s motion for expedited discovery related to an anticipated motion for a preliminary injunction. On August 13, 2007, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The motion to dismiss has been fully briefed and is currently pending before the Court. Mr. Wells, Wells Capital, and Wells Management intend to vigorously defend this action. Any financial loss incurred by Wells Capital, Wells Management, or their affiliates could hinder their ability to successfully manage our operations and our portfolio of investments.

On August 24, 2007, two stockholders of Piedmont REIT filed a derivative complaint, styled Donald and Donna Goldstein, Derivatively on behalf of Defendant Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. v. Leo F. Wells, III, et al., in the Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia, on behalf of Piedmont REIT against, among others, Leo F. Wells, III, one of our general partners, Wells Capital, the corporate general partner of Wells Partners, our other general partner, and a number of individuals who currently or formerly served as officers or directors of Piedmont REIT. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the consideration paid by Piedmont REIT as part of the internalization transaction was excessive; that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to Piedmont REIT; and that the internalization transaction unjustly enriched the defendants. The complaint seeks, among other things, a judgment declaring that the defendants committed breaches of their fiduciary duties and were unjustly enriched at the expense of Piedmont REIT; monetary damages equal to the amount by which Piedmont REIT was damaged by the defendants; an order awarding Piedmont REIT restitution from the defendants and ordering disgorgement of all profits and benefits obtained by the defendants from their wrongful conduct and fiduciary breaches; an order rescinding the internalization transaction; and the establishment of a

Page 4

constructive trust upon any benefits improperly received by the defendants as a result of their wrongful conduct. On October 19, 2007, the Court verbally granted the defendants’ motion for a protective order (and entered a written order on October 24, 2007) staying discovery until the Court rules on the defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint. On October 31, 2007, the defendants filed their motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ derivative complaint. On December 19, 2007, the Court entered an order allowing the plaintiffs to take limited written discovery on the issue of derivative demand, but the order staying discovery entered in October 2007 otherwise remains in effect. The defendants responded to the limited discovery requested by the plaintiffs. On January 10, 2008, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, which contains substantially the same counts against the same defendants as the original complaint with certain additional factual allegations based primarily on events occurring after the original complaint was filed. In addition, the plaintiffs have responded to the defendants’ motion to dismiss this lawsuit. A hearing on the motion to dismiss was held on February 22, 2008, and on March 13, 2008, the court granted the motion to dismiss.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

Real Estate Risks

Economic and regulatory changes that impact the real estate market generally may cause our operating results to suffer and decrease the value of our real estate properties.

Our operating results will be subject to risks generally incident to the ownership of real estate, including:

• changes in general or local economic conditions;

• changes in supply of or demand for similar or competing properties in an area;

• changes in interest rates and availability of permanent mortgage funds, which may render the sale of a property difficult or unattractive;

• changes in tax, real estate, environmental and zoning laws; and

• periods of high interest rates and tight money supply.

These and other reasons may prevent us from being profitable or from realizing growth or maintaining the value of our real estate properties.

General economic conditions may affect the timing of the sale of our properties and the sale price we receive.

We may be unable to sell a property if or when we decide to do so. The real estate market is affected by many factors, such as general economic conditions, the availability of financing, interest rates, and other factors, including supply and demand for real estate investments, all of which are beyond our control. We cannot predict whether we will be able to sell any property for the price or on terms which are acceptable to us. Further, we cannot predict the length of time which will be needed to find a willing purchaser and to close the sale of a property.

Adverse economic conditions in the geographic regions in which we own properties may negatively impact your overall returns.

Adverse economic conditions in the geographic regions in which we own our properties could affect the real estate values in this area or the business of our tenants if any of our tenants rely upon the local economy for their revenues. Therefore, changes in local economic conditions could reduce our income and distributions to limited partners or the amounts we could otherwise receive upon the sale of a property in a negatively affected region.

Page 5

Adverse economic conditions affecting the particular industries of the tenants of our properties may negatively impact your overall returns.

Adverse economic conditions affecting a particular industry of one or more of our tenants could affect the financial ability of one or more of our tenants to make payments under their leases, which could cause delays in our receipt of rental revenues or a vacancy in one or more of our properties for a period of time. Therefore, changes in economic conditions of the particular industry of one or more of our tenants could reduce our income and distributions to limited partners and the value of one or more of our properties at the time of sale of such properties.

We are dependent on our tenants for substantially all of our revenue, so our success is materially dependent on the financial stability of our tenants.

Most of our properties are occupied by only a few tenants and, therefore, the success of our investments are materially dependent on the financial stability of our tenants. Lease payment defaults by tenants could cause us to reduce the amount of distributions to holders of Class A Units. A default of a tenant on its lease payments to us would cause us to lose the revenue from the property. 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 re-letting our property. If a lease is terminated, we cannot assure you that we will be able to lease the property for the rent previously received or sell the property without incurring a loss.

We currently have a vacancy issue with one of our properties, which could reduce or eliminate cash distributions to limited partners.

Because of the vacancy issue, we have expended, or anticipate that we will be required to expend in the future, substantial funds for tenant improvements and tenant refurbishments to the vacated space and other lease-up costs. If the vacancy continues for a long period of time, we may suffer reduced revenues resulting in less cash to be distributed to investors holding Class A Units, if any. In addition, the resale value of this property is currently diminished because the market value depends principally upon the value of the leases in place at such property.

Your investment in units are subject to greater risk because we lack a diversified property portfolio.

Because we own interests in only a few properties, your investment in units are subject to a greater risk of loss. There is a greater risk that you will lose money in your investment because our portfolio of properties is not diverse by geographic location, property type, or industry group of tenants.

Our future financial success depends on only a few tenants.

The revenues generated by these tenants are substantially reliant upon the financial condition of these tenants and, accordingly, any event of bankruptcy, insolvency, or a general downturn in the business of any of these tenants may result in the failure or delay of such tenant’s rental payments, which may have a substantial adverse effect on our financial performance.

We depend on tenants for our revenue. Accordingly, lease terminations and/or tenant default could reduce our net income and limit our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.

The success of our investments materially depends on the financial stability of our tenants. A default or termination by a significant tenant on its lease payments to us would cause us to lose the revenue associated with such lease and require us to find an alternative source of revenue. In the event of a tenant default or bankruptcy, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment and re-letting our property. If significant leases are terminated or defaulted upon, we may be unable to lease the property for the rent previously received or sell the property without incurring a loss. These events could cause us to reduce the amount of distributions to limited partners.

Page 6

If one or more of our tenants file bankruptcy, we may be precluded from collecting all sums due.

If one or more of our tenants, or the guarantor of a tenant’s lease, commences, or has commenced against it, any proceeding under any provision of the federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or any other legal or equitable proceeding under any bankruptcy, insolvency, rehabilitation, receivership, or debtor’s relief statute or law (bankruptcy proceeding), we may be unable to collect sums due under relevant leases. Any or all of the tenants, or a guarantor of a tenant’s lease obligations, could be subject to a bankruptcy proceeding. Such a bankruptcy proceeding may bar our efforts to collect pre-bankruptcy debts from these entities or their properties, unless we are able to obtain an enabling order from the bankruptcy court. If a lease is rejected by a tenant in bankruptcy, we would only have a general unsecured claim against the tenant, and may not be entitled to any further payments under the lease. A tenant’s or lease guarantor’s bankruptcy proceeding could hinder or delay efforts to collect past due balances under relevant leases, and could ultimately preclude collection of these sums. Such an event could cause a decrease or cessation of rental payments which would mean a reduction in our cash flow and the amount available for distribution to limited partners holding Class A Units. In the event of a bankruptcy proceeding, we cannot assure you that the tenant or its trustee will assume our lease. If a given lease, or guaranty of a lease, is not assumed, our cash flow and the amounts available for distribution to limited partners holding Class A Units may be adversely affected.

We may not have funding for future tenant improvements which may reduce your returns and make it difficult to attract one or more new tenants.

When a tenant at one of our properties does not renew its lease or otherwise vacates its space in one of our buildings, it is likely that in order to attract one or more new tenants, we will be required to expend substantial funds for tenant improvements and tenant refurbishments to the vacated space and other lease-up costs. Substantially all of our net offering proceeds available for investment have been used for investment in Partnership properties, and we do not anticipate that we will maintain permanent working capital reserves. We also have not identified a funding source to provide funds which may be required in the future for tenant improvements, tenant refurbishments, and other lease-up costs in order to attract new tenants. We cannot assure you that any such source of funding will be available to us for such purposes in the future. In the event that we are required to use net cash from operations to fund such tenant improvements, tenant refurbishments, and other lease-up costs, cash distributions to limited partners holding Class A Units will be reduced or eliminated for potentially extended periods of time.

A property that incurs a vacancy could be difficult to sell or lease.

A property may incur a vacancy either by the continued default of a tenant under its lease or the expiration of one of our leases. Our properties may be leased to a single tenant and/or may be specifically suited to the particular needs of certain tenants based on the type of business the tenant operates. If a vacancy on any of our properties continues for a long period of time, we may suffer reduced revenues resulting in less cash to be distributed to investors holding Class A Units. In addition, the resale value of the property could be diminished because the market value of a particular property will depend principally upon the value of the leases of such property.

Uninsured losses relating to real property or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage could reduce our net income.

Our General Partners will attempt to obtain adequate insurance on all of our properties to cover casualty losses. However, there are types of losses, generally catastrophic in nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, pollution, or environmental matters that are uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. Insurance risks associated with potential terrorism acts could sharply increase the premiums we pay for coverage against property and casualty claims. We may not have adequate coverage for such losses. If any of our properties incur a casualty loss that is not fully insured, the value of our assets will be reduced by such uninsured loss. In addition, other than reserves of net cash from operations we may establish, we have no source of funding to

Page 7

repair or reconstruct any uninsured damaged property. Also, to the extent we must pay unexpectedly large amounts for insurance, we could suffer reduced earnings that would result in lower distributions to limited partners.

Uncertain market conditions and the broad discretion of our General Partners relating to the future disposition of properties could adversely affect the return on your investment.

We generally will hold the various real properties in which we invest until such time as the General Partners determine that the sale or other disposition thereof appears to be advantageous to achieve our investment objectives or until it appears that such objectives will not be met. Our General Partners intend to sell properties acquired for development after holding such properties for a minimum period of eight to 12 years from the date the development is completed, and intend to sell existing income-producing properties within eight to 12 years after their acquisition, or as soon thereafter as market conditions permit. This is the period of time it typically takes to realize significant appreciation of the type of property in which we traditionally invest. However, our General Partners may exercise their discretion as to whether and when to sell a property, and we will have no obligation to sell properties at any particular time, except upon the termination of the Partnership as specified in the partnership agreement, or earlier if a majority of you vote to liquidate the Partnership pursuant to a formal proxy to liquidate. We cannot predict with any certainty the various market conditions affecting real estate investments which will exist at any particular time in the future. Due to the uncertainty of market conditions, which may affect the future disposition of our properties, we cannot assure you that we will be able to sell our properties at a profit in the future. Accordingly, the timing of liquidation of the Partnership and the extent to which you will receive cash distributions and realize potential appreciation on our real estate investments will be dependent upon fluctuating market conditions.

If any environmentally hazardous material is determined to exist on a property owned by the Partnership, our operating results could be adversely affected.

Under various federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances, and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real property may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances on, under, or in such property. Such laws often impose liability whether or not the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws also may impose restrictions on the manner in which property may be used or businesses may be operated, and these restrictions may require expenditures. Environmental laws provide for sanctions in the event of noncompliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies or, in certain circumstances, by private parties. In connection with the acquisition and ownership of our properties, we may be potentially liable for such costs. The cost of defending against claims of liability, complying with environmental regulatory requirements, or remediating any contaminated property could materially adversely affect the business, assets, or results of operations of the Partnership and, consequently, amounts available for distribution to limited partners holding Class A Units.

The Partnership and/or other prior Wells public limited partnerships sponsored by our General Partners have sold real estate properties for a sale price less than the original purchase price.

Certain of the real estate properties previously purchased by the Partnership and other Wells public limited partnerships sponsored by the General Partners have not appreciated to the levels anticipated at the time of purchase. Recently some of these properties have been sold by such programs at purchase prices below the prices paid for such properties. We cannot guarantee that any of our properties will appreciate in value.

General Investment Risks

The Georgia Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act (“GRULPA”) does not grant you any specific voting rights, and your rights are limited under our partnership agreement.

A vote of a majority in interest of the limited partners is sufficient to take the following significant Partnership actions:

• to amend our partnership agreement;

• to change our business purpose or our investment objectives;

• to remove our General Partners; or

• to authorize a merger or a consolidation of the Partnership.

These are your only significant voting rights granted under our partnership agreement. In addition, GRULPA does not grant you any specific voting rights. Therefore, your voting rights are severely limited.

You are bound by the majority vote on matters on which you are entitled to vote.

You may approve any of the above actions by majority vote of the limited partners. Therefore, you are bound by such majority vote even if you do not vote with the majority on any of these actions.

Under our partnership agreement, we are required to indemnify our General Partners under certain circumstances which may reduce returns to our limited partners.

Under our partnership agreement and subject to certain limitations, the Partnership is required to indemnify our General Partners from and against losses, liabilities, and damages relating to or arising out of any action or inaction on behalf of the Partnership done in good faith and in the best interest of the Partnership. If substantial and expensive litigation should ensue and the Partnership is obligated to indemnify one or both General Partners, we may be forced to use substantial funds to do so, which may reduce the return on your investment.

Payment of fees to our General Partners or their affiliates will reduce cash available for distributions to our limited partners.

Our General Partners or their affiliates perform services for us in connection with the management and leasing of our properties. Our affiliates may receive property management and leasing fees of 6.0% of gross revenues in connection with the commercial properties we own. In addition, we will reimburse our General Partners or their affiliates for the administrative services necessary to our prudent operation which includes actual costs of goods, services, and materials used for or by the Partnership. These fees and reimbursements will reduce the amount of cash available for capital expenditures to our properties or distributions to limited partners.

The availability and the timing of cash distributions are uncertain.

We cannot assure you that sufficient cash will be available to make distributions to you from either net cash from operations or proceeds from the sale of properties. We bear all expenses incurred in connection with our operations, which are deducted from cash funds generated by operations prior to computing the amount of net cash from operations to be distributed to our general and limited partners. In addition, our General Partners, in their discretion, may retain all or any portion of net cash generated from our operations and/or proceeds from the sale of our properties for tenant improvements, tenant refurbishments, and other lease-up costs or for working capital reserves.

Page 9

Gains and distributions upon sale of our properties are uncertain.

Although gains from the sale of properties typically represent a substantial portion of any profits attributable to real estate investments, we cannot assure you that we will realize any gains on the sale of our properties. In addition, the amount of taxable gain allocated to you with respect to the sale of a Partnership property could exceed the cash proceeds received from such sale. While the net proceeds from the sale of a property will generally be distributed to investors, the General Partners, in their sole discretion, may not make such distribution if such proceeds are used to:

• purchase land underlying any of our properties;

• buy out the interest of any co-venturer or joint venture partner in a property which is jointly owned;

• establish working capital reserves; or

• make repairs, maintenance, tenant improvements, capital improvements, or other expenditures to any of our existing properties.

We are uncertain of our sources for funding of future capital needs.

Substantially all of the gross proceeds of the offering were used to invest in properties and to pay various fees and expenses. In addition, we do not anticipate that we will maintain any permanent working capital reserves. Accordingly, in the event that we develop a need for additional capital in the future, such as the funding of tenant improvements, tenant refurbishments, or other lease-up costs, we have not identified any sources for such funding, and we cannot assure you that any sources of funding will be available to us for potential capital needs in the future.

We may need to reserve net cash from operations for future tenant improvements which may reduce your returns.

We may be required to expend substantial funds for tenant improvements and tenant refurbishments to vacated space and other lease-up costs. Substantially all of our net offering proceeds available for investment were used for investment in Partnership properties, and we do not anticipate that we will maintain permanent working capital reserves. We also have no identified funding source to provide funds which may be required in the future for tenant improvements, tenant refurbishments, and other lease-up costs in order to attract new tenants. We cannot assure you that any such source of funding will be available to us for such purposes in the future. In the event that we are required to use net cash from operations to fund such tenant improvements, tenant refurbishments, and other lease-up costs, cash distributions to limited partners holding Class A Units will be reduced or eliminated for potentially extended periods of time.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Partnership maintains bank accounts with high credit, quality financial institutions. At times, the balances in these accounts may exceed federally insured limits.

Marketability and Transferability Risks

There is no public trading market for your units.

There is no public market for your units, and we do not anticipate that any public trading market for your units will ever develop. If you attempt to sell your units, you would likely do so at substantially discounted prices on the secondary market. Further, our partnership agreement restricts our ability to participate in a public trading market or anything substantially equivalent to one by providing that any transfer which may cause us to be classified as a “publicly traded partnership” as defined in Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code shall be deemed void and shall not be recognized. Because classification of the Partnership as a “publicly traded partnership” may significantly decrease the value of your units, our General Partners intend to use their authority to the maximum extent possible to prohibit transfers of units which could cause us to be classified as a “publicly traded partnership.”

Page 10

Your units have limited transferability and lack liquidity due to restrictions under state regulatory laws and our partnership agreement.

You are limited in your ability to transfer your units. Our partnership agreement and certain state regulatory agencies have imposed restrictions relating to the number of units you may transfer. In addition, the suitability standards applied to you upon the purchase of your units may also be applied to persons to whom you wish to transfer your units. Accordingly, you may find it difficult to sell your units for cash or if you are able to sell your units, you may have to sell your units at a substantial discount. You may not be able to sell your units in the event of an emergency, and your units are not likely to be accepted as collateral for a loan.

Our estimated unit valuations should not be viewed as an accurate reflection of the value of the limited partners’ units.

The estimated unit valuations contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K should not be viewed as an accurate reflection of the value of the limited partners’ units, what limited partners might be able to sell their units for, or the fair market value of the Partnership’s properties, nor do they necessarily represent the amount of net proceeds limited partners would receive if the Partnership’s properties were sold and the proceeds distributed in a liquidation of the Partnership. There is no established public trading market for the Partnership’s limited partnership units, and it is not anticipated that a public trading market for the units will ever develop. We did not obtain any third-party appraisals of our properties in connection with these estimated unit valuations. In addition, property values are subject to change and could decline in the future. The valuations performed by the General Partners are estimates only, and are based on a number of assumptions which may not be accurate or complete and may or may not be applicable to any specific limited partnership units. Further, these estimated valuations assume, and are applicable only to, limited partners who have made no conversion elections under the partnership agreement and who purchased their units directly from the Partnership in the Partnership’s original public offering of units. It also should be noted that, as properties are sold and the net proceeds from property sales are distributed to limited partners, the remaining value of the Partnership’s portfolio of properties, and resulting value of Partnership’s limited partnership units, will naturally decline.

Special Risks Regarding Status of Units

If you hold Class A Units, we expect that you will be allocated more income than cash flow.

Since limited partners holding Class A Units are allocated substantially all of the Partnership’s net income, while substantially all deductions for depreciation and other tax losses are allocated to limited partners holding Class B Units, we expect that those of you who hold Class A Units will be allocated taxable income in excess of your cash distributions. We cannot assure you that cash flow will be available for distribution in any year.

The desired effect of holding Class A Units or Class B Units may be reduced depending on how many investors hold each type of unit.

You will be entitled to different rights and priorities as to distributions of cash flow from operations and net sale proceeds and as to the allocation of depreciation and other tax losses depending upon whether you are holding Class A Units or Class B Units. However, the effect of any advantage associated with holding Class A Units or Class B Units may be significantly reduced or eliminated, depending upon the ratio of Class A Units to Class B Units during any given period. We will not attempt to restrict the ratio of Class A Units to Class B Units, and we will not attempt to establish or maintain any particular ratio.

Management Risks

You must rely on our General Partners for management of our business.

Our General Partners make all decisions with respect to the management of the Partnership. Limited partners have no right or power to take part in the management of the Partnership, except through the exercise of limited voting rights. Therefore, you must rely almost entirely on our General Partners for management of the

Page 11

Partnership and the operation of its business. Our General Partners may be removed only under certain conditions set forth in our partnership agreement. If our General Partners are removed, they will receive payment equal to the fair market value of their interests in the Partnership as agreed upon by our General Partners and the Partnership or by arbitration if they are unable to agree.

Leo F. Wells, III has a primary role in determining what is in the best interests of the Partnership and its limited partners.

Leo F. Wells, III is one of our General Partners and is the president, treasurer, and sole director of Wells Capital, the general partner of our corporate general partner. Therefore, one person has a primary role in determining what is in the best interests of the Partnership and its limited partners. Although Mr. Wells relies on the input of the officers and other employees of Wells Capital, he ultimately has the authority to make decisions affecting our Partnership operations. Therefore, Mr. Wells alone will determine the propriety of his own actions, which could result in a conflict of interest when he is faced with any significant decision relating to our Partnership affairs.

Our loss of or inability to obtain key personnel could delay or hinder implementation of our investment strategies, which could limit our ability to make distributions.

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the contributions of Leo F. Wells, III, Douglas P. Williams, and Randall D. Fretz, each of whom would be difficult to replace. We do not have employment agreements with Messrs. Wells, Williams, or Fretz, and we cannot guarantee that such persons will remain affiliated with us. If any of Wells Capital’s key personnel were to cease their affiliation with the Partnership, we may be unable to find suitable replacement personnel, and our operating results could suffer. We do not maintain key person life insurance on any person. We believe that our future success depends, in large part, upon the ability of our General Partners to hire and retain highly skilled managerial and operational personnel. If we lose or are unable to obtain the services of highly skilled personnel or do not establish or maintain appropriate strategic relationships, our ability to implement our investment strategies could be delayed or hindered, and the value of your investment may decline.

Our operating performance could suffer if Wells Capital incurs significant losses, including those losses that may result from being the general partner of other entities.

We are dependent on Wells Capital to conduct our operations; thus, adverse changes in the financial condition of Wells Capital, including changes arising from litigation, or our relationship with Wells Capital could hinder its ability to successfully manage our operations and our portfolio of investments. As a general partner in many Wells-sponsored programs, Wells Capital may have contingent liabilities for the obligations of such programs. Enforcement of such obligations against Wells Capital could result in a substantial reduction of its net worth. If such liabilities affected the level of services that Wells Capital could provide, our operations and financial performance could suffer. In addition, WREF, the sole stockholder of Wells Capital, currently guarantees unsecured debt held by Wells Timberland REIT, Inc., a WREF-sponsored product that is in the startup phases of its operations, equal to approximately $139.7 million as of February 29, 2008.

Our General Partners have a limited net worth consisting of illiquid assets which may affect their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Partnership.

The net worth of our General Partners consists primarily of interests in real estate, retirement plans, partnerships, and closely-held businesses and, in the case of Wells Capital, receivables from affiliated corporations and partnerships. Accordingly, the net worth of our General Partners is illiquid and not readily marketable. This illiquidity may be relevant to you in evaluating the ability of our General Partners to fulfill their financial obligations to the Partnership. In addition, our General Partners have significant commitments to the other Wells-sponsored programs.

Page 12

Increases in our administrative operating expenses, including increased expenses associated with operating as a public company in the current regulatory environment, could limit our ability to make distributions.

As we evolve through our partnership life cycle, and sell various properties in our portfolio, our administrative operating expenses become a larger percentage in relationship to our operating cash flow and the value of our properties. Further, we bear all expenses incurred in connection with our operations, which are deducted from cash funds generated by operations prior to computing the amount of net cash from operations to be distributed to our limited partners. Therefore, as a result of the increased administrative operating expenses and increased percentage of such expenses, we cannot assure you that sufficient cash will be available to make future distributions to you from either net cash from our operations or proceeds from the sale of our properties.

Conflicts of Interest Risks

Our General Partners will face conflicts of interest relating to time management which could result in lower returns on our investments.

Because our General Partners and their affiliates have interests in other real estate programs and also engage in other business activities, they could have conflicts of interest in allocating their time between our business and these other activities, which could affect operations of the Partnership. You should note that our partnership agreement does not specify any minimum amount of time or level of attention that our General Partners are required to devote to the Partnership.

Our General Partners will face conflicts of interest relating to the sale and leasing of properties.

We may be selling properties at the same time as other Wells programs are buying and selling properties. We may have acquired or be selling properties in geographic areas where other Wells programs own properties or are trying to sell properties, which could lower your return on your investment.

Investments in joint ventures with affiliates will result in additional risks involving our relationship with the co-venturer.

We have entered into joint ventures with affiliates. Such investments may involve risks not otherwise present with an investment in real estate, including, for example:

• the possibility that our co-venturer, co-tenant, or partner in an investment might become bankrupt;

• that such co-venturer, co-tenant, or partner may at any time have economic or business interests or goals which are or which become inconsistent with our business interests or goals; or

• that such co-venturer, co-tenant, or partner may be in a position to take action contrary to our instructions or requests or contrary to our policies or objectives.

Actions by such a co-venturer, co-tenant, or partner might result in subjecting the property to liabilities in excess of those contemplated and may have the effect of reducing your returns.

Our General Partners will face various conflicts of interest relating to joint ventures with affiliates.

Since our General Partners and their affiliates control both the Partnership and other affiliates, transactions between the parties with respect to joint ventures between such parties do not have the benefit of arm’s length negotiation of the type normally conducted between unrelated co-venturers. Under these joint venture arrangements, neither co-venturer has the power to control the venture, and an impasse could be reached regarding matters pertaining to the joint venture, which might have a negative influence on the joint venture and decrease potential returns to you. In the event that a co-venturer has a right of first refusal to buy out the other co-venturer, it may be unable to finance such buy-out at that time. It may also be difficult for us to sell our interest in any such joint venture or partnership or as a co-tenant in property. In addition, to the extent that our co-venturer, partner, or co-tenant is an affiliate of our General Partners, certain conflicts of interest will exist.

Page 13

Federal Income Tax Risks

The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) may challenge our characterization of material tax aspects of your investment in the Partnership.

An investment in units involves certain material income tax risks, the character and extent of which are, to some extent, a function of whether you hold Class A Units or Class B Units. We will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding any of the tax issues related to your units.

Investors may realize taxable income without cash distributions.

As a limited partner in the Partnership, you are required to report your allocable share of the Partnership’s taxable income on your personal income tax return regardless of whether or not you have received any cash distributions from the Partnership. For example, if you hold Class A Units, you will be allocated substantially all of our net income, defined in the partnership agreement to mean generally net income for federal income tax purposes, including any income exempt from tax, but excluding all deductions for depreciation and amortization and gain or loss from the sale of Partnership properties, even if such income is in excess of any distributions of cash from our operations. If you hold Class A Units, you will likely be allocated taxable income in excess of any distributions to you, and the amount of cash received by you could be less than the income tax attributable to the net income allocated to you.

We could potentially be characterized as a publicly traded partnership resulting in unfavorable tax results.

If the IRS were to classify the Partnership as a “publicly traded partnership,” we could be taxable as a corporation, and distributions made to you could be treated as portfolio income to you rather than passive income. We cannot assure you that we will not, at some time in the future, be treated as a publicly traded partnership due to the following factors:

• the complex nature of the IRS rules governing our potential exemption from classification as a publicly traded partnership;

• the lack of interpretive guidance with respect to such rules; and

• the fact that any determination in this regard will necessarily be based upon events which have not yet occurred.

The IRS may challenge our allocations of profit and loss.

While it is more likely than not Partnership items of income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit will be allocated among our General Partners and our limited partners substantially in accordance with the allocation provisions of the partnership agreement, we cannot assure you that the IRS will not successfully challenge the allocations in the partnership agreement and reallocate items of income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit in a manner which reduces the anticipated tax benefits to investors holding Class B Units or increases the income allocated to investors holding Class A Units.

We may be audited and additional tax, interest, and penalties may be imposed upon you.

Our federal income tax returns may be audited by the IRS. Any audit of the Partnership could result in an audit of your tax return causing adjustments of items unrelated to your investment in the Partnership, in addition to adjustments to various Partnership items. In the event of any such adjustments, you might incur accountants’ or attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other expenses contesting deficiencies asserted by the IRS. You also may be liable for interest on any underpayment and certain penalties from the date your tax was originally due. The tax treatment of all Partnership items will generally be determined at the partnership level in a single proceeding rather than in separate proceedings with each partner, and our General Partners are primarily responsible for contesting federal income tax adjustments proposed by the IRS. In this connection, our General Partners may extend the statute of limitations as to all partners and, in certain circumstances, may bind the partners to a

Page 14

settlement with the IRS. Further, our General Partners may cause us to elect to be treated as an “electing large partnership.” If they do, we could take advantage of simplified flow-through reporting of Partnership items. Adjustments to Partnership items would continue to be determined at the partnership level, however, and any such adjustments would be accounted for in the year they take effect, rather than in the year to which such adjustments relate. Accordingly, if you make an election to change the status of your units between the years in which a tax benefit is claimed and an adjustment is made, you may suffer a disproportionate adverse impact with respect to any such adjustment. Further, our General Partners will have the discretion in such circumstances either to pass along any such adjustments to the partners or to bear such adjustments at the partnership level, thereby potentially adversely impacting the holders of a particular class of units disproportionately to holders of the other class of units.

State and local taxes and a requirement to withhold state taxes may apply.

The state in which you reside may impose an income tax upon your share of our taxable income. Further, states in which we own properties may impose income taxes upon your share of our taxable income allocable to any Partnership property located in that state or other taxes on limited partnerships owning properties in their states. Many states have implemented or are implementing programs to require partnerships to withhold and pay state income taxes owed by nonresident partners relating to income-producing properties located in their states, and we may be required to withhold state taxes from cash distributions otherwise payable to you. In the event we are required to withhold state taxes from your cash distributions, or pay other state taxes, the amount of the net cash from operations otherwise payable to you would be reduced. In addition, such collection and filing requirements at the state level may result in increases in our administrative expenses which would have the effect of reducing cash available for distribution to you. You are urged to consult with your own tax advisors with respect to the impact of applicable state and local taxes and state tax withholding requirements or other potential state taxes relating to an investment in our units.

Legislative or regulatory action could adversely affect investors.

In recent years, numerous legislative, judicial, and administrative changes have been made in the provisions of the federal income tax laws applicable to investments similar to an investment in our units. Additional changes to the tax laws are likely to continue to occur in the future, and we cannot assure you that any such changes will not adversely affect the taxation of a limited partner. Any such changes could have an adverse effect on an investment in our units or on the market value or the resale potential of our properties. You are urged to consult with your own tax advisor with respect to the impact of recent legislation on your investment in units and the status of legislative, regulatory, or administrative developments and proposals and their potential effect on an investment in our units.

Retirement Plan and Qualified Plan Risks

There are special considerations that apply to a pension or profit-sharing trust or an Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”) investing in units.

If you are investing the assets of a pension, profit-sharing, Section 401(k), Keogh, or other qualified retirement plan or the assets of an IRA in units, you should satisfy yourself that:

• your investment is consistent with your fiduciary obligations under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”) and the Internal Revenue Code;

• your investment is made in accordance with the documents and instruments governing your plan or IRA, including your plan’s investment policy;

• your investment satisfies the prudence and diversification requirements of Sections 404(a)(1)(B) and 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA;

• your investment will not impair the liquidity of the plan or IRA;

Page 15

• your investment will not produce “unrelated business taxable income” for the plan or IRA;

• you will be able to value the assets of the plan annually in accordance with ERISA requirements; and

• your investment will not constitute a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code.

We may dissolve the Partnership if our assets are deemed to be plan assets or if we engage in prohibited transactions.

If our assets were deemed to be assets of qualified plans investing as limited partners, i.e., plan assets, our General Partners would be considered to be fiduciaries of such plans and certain contemplated transactions between our General Partners or their affiliates, and the Partnership may then be deemed to be “prohibited transactions” subject to excise taxation under Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code. Additionally, if our assets were deemed to be plan assets, the standards of prudence and other provisions of ERISA applicable to plan fiduciaries would apply to the General Partners with respect to our investments. We have not sought a ruling from the U.S. Department of Labor regarding the potential classification of our assets as plan assets.

In this regard, U.S. Department of Labor Regulations defining plan assets for purposes of ERISA contain exemptions which, if satisfied, would preclude assets of a limited partnership such as ours from being treated as plan assets. We cannot assure you that our partnership agreement has been structured so that the exemptions in such Regulations would apply to us, although our General Partners intend that an investment by a qualified plan in units will not be deemed an investment in the assets of the Partnership. We can make no representations or warranties of any kind regarding the consequences of an investment in our units by qualified plans in this regard. Plan fiduciaries are urged to consult with and rely upon their own advisors with respect to this and other ERISA issues which, if decided adversely to the Partnership, could result in qualified plan investors being deemed to have engaged in “prohibited transactions,” which would cause the imposition of excise taxes and co-fiduciary liability under Section 405 of ERISA in the event actions taken by us are deemed to be nonprudent investments or “prohibited transactions.”

In the event our assets are deemed to constitute plan assets or certain transactions undertaken by us are deemed to constitute “prohibited transactions” under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code, and no exemption for such transactions is obtainable by us, the General Partners have the right, but not the obligation, upon notice to all limited partners, but without the consent of any limited partner, to:

• compel a termination and dissolution of the Partnership; or

• restructure our activities to the extent necessary to comply with any exemption in the U.S. Department of Labor Regulations or any prohibited transaction exemption granted by the Department of Labor or any condition which the Department of Labor might impose as a condition to granting a prohibited transaction exemption.

Adverse tax consequences may result because of minimum distribution requirements.

If you intend to purchase units through your IRA, or if you are a custodian of an IRA or a trustee or other fiduciary of a retirement plan considering an investment in units, you must consider the limited liquidity of an investment in our units as it relates to applicable minimum distribution requirements under the Internal Revenue Code. If units are held and our properties have not yet been sold at such time as mandatory distributions are required to begin to an IRA beneficiary or qualified plan participant, Sections 408(a)(6) and 401(a)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code will likely require that a distribution-in-kind of the units be made to the IRA beneficiary or qualified plan participant. Any such distribution-in-kind of units must be included in the taxable income of the IRA beneficiary or qualified plan participant for the year in which the units are received at the fair market value of the units and taxes attributable thereto must be paid without any corresponding cash distributions from us with which to pay such income tax liability.

Page 16

Unrelated business taxable income (“UBTI”) may be generated with respect to tax-exempt investors.

We do not intend or anticipate that the tax-exempt investors in the Partnership will be allocated income deemed to be derived from an unrelated trade or business. Notwithstanding this, the General Partners do have limited authority to borrow funds deemed necessary:

• to finance improvements necessary to protect capital previously invested in a property;

• to protect the value of our investment in a property; or

• to make one of our properties more attractive for sale or lease.

Our General Partners have represented that they will not cause the Partnership to incur indebtedness unless they obtain an opinion from legal counsel or an opinion from our tax accountants that the proposed indebtedness more likely than not will not cause the income allocable to tax-exempt investors to be characterized as UBTI. Any such opinion will have no binding effect on the IRS or any court, however, and some risk remains that we may generate UBTI for our tax-exempt investors in the event that it becomes necessary for us to borrow funds.

Further, in the event we were deemed to be a “dealer” in real property, defined as one who holds real estate primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business, the gain realized on the sale of our properties which is allocable to tax-exempt investors would be characterized as UBTI.

Property Descriptions

The properties in which the Partnership owned an interest through the Joint Ventures during the periods presented are further described below:

BellSouth Building

The BellSouth Building is an approximate 92,000-square-foot, four-story office building located in Jacksonville, Florida. The BellSouth Building was leased to BellSouth Advertising and Publishing Corporation, a subsidiary of BellSouth Company, and American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. through April 2009 and February 2016, respectively. On May 15, 2006, Fund VI-VII-VIII Associates and another Wells-affiliated joint venture sold the BellSouth Building and a second office property owned by the other Wells-affiliated joint venture to an unaffiliated third party for an aggregate gross sales price of $24,000,000, less agreed-upon credits of approximately $228,000. As a result of the sale, the Partnership received net sale proceeds of approximately $4,157,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $2,176,000.

Tanglewood Commons

Tanglewood Commons consisted of a strip-mall shopping center containing approximately 67,000 square feet on a 12.48-acre tract of land. Approximately 2.2 acres of the property consisting of four outparcels were graded and held for future development or resale.

On October 7, 2002, Fund VI-VII-VIII Associates sold an outparcel of land at Tanglewood Commons to an unrelated third party for a gross sale price of approximately $559,000. As a result of this sale, the Partnership received net sale proceeds of approximately $170,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $4,000. On April 21, 2005, Fund VI-VII-VIII Associates sold the Tanglewood Commons shopping center and one outparcel of land to an unrelated third party for a gross sale price of $11,500,000. As a result of the sale, the Partnership

Page 19

received net proceeds of approximately $3,635,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $1,755,000. On October 12, 2005, a portion of one of the remaining outparcels of land was condemned by the North Carolina Department of Transportation. As a result of this condemnation, the Partnership received net sale proceeds of approximately $17,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $10,000. On January 31, 2007, Fund VI-VII-VIII Associates sold the two remaining outparcels of land to Wells Management, an affiliate of our General Partners, for a gross sale price of $750,000 after seeking the consent of the limited partners to the transaction. As a result of the sale, the Partnership received net sale proceeds of approximately $238,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $28,000.

Hannover Center

Hannover Center is an approximately 12,000-square-foot, single-story retail center located in Stockbridge, Georgia. On April 29, 2004, four affiliated joint ventures, including Fund VII-VIII Associates, sold five real properties, including the Hannover Center, to an unrelated third party for an aggregate gross sales price of $23,750,000. As a result of the sale of the Hannover Center, the Partnership received net sale proceeds of approximately $1,079,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $291,000.

CH2M Hill Building

The CH2M Hill Building is an office building containing approximately 61,000 rentable square feet located in Gainesville, Florida. The CH2M Hill Building was approximately 83% leased to CH2M Hill, Inc. and the lease was set to expire in November 2010. On December 7, 2005, Fund VII-VIII Associates sold the CH2M Hill Building to an unrelated third party for a gross sale price of $8,200,000. As a result of the sale, the Partnership received net sale proceeds of approximately $5,028,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $2,534,000.

US Cellular Building

The US Cellular Building is a four-story office building containing approximately 102,000 rentable square feet located in Madison, Wisconsin. United States Cellular Operating Company (“US Cellular”), a business unit of Telephone and Data Systems, occupied 100% of the building until 2006. In September 2006, Fund VIII-IX Associates completed lease amendment with US Cellular, the sole tenant at the US Cellular Building, that (i) extended the termination date of the lease from May 31, 2007 to January 31, 2013, (ii) reduced the square footage leased from approximately 102,000 square feet to approximately 75,000 square feet commencing January 1, 2007, (iii) allowed for a seven-month rental abatement period commencing July 1, 2006 through January 31, 2007, and (iv) reduced the contract rental rate following the rental abatement period. Following the rental abatement period, the monthly base rent payable was approximately $77,800 through December 31, 2007. In June 2007, Fund VIII-IX Associates completed an additional lease amendment with US Cellular that extended the termination date of the lease to April 9, 2013 and allowed them to apply the remaining landlord-funded tenant improvement allowance of approximately $171,000 as rental abatement. Effective January 1, 2008, the monthly base rent payable will increase by approximately 2% every January until the lease expiration. The monthly base rent payable in 2013 will be approximately $87,700.

14079 Senlac Drive

The 14079 Senlac Drive property is a one-story office building containing approximately 40,000 rentable square feet located on 4.864 acres of land located in Farmers Branch, Texas. The 14079 Senlac Drive property was leased to Time Warner NY Cable LLC, and the lease was set to expire in July 2011. On November 29, 2007, Fund VIII-IX Associates sold 14079 Senlac Drive to an unrelated third party for a gross selling price of approximately $5,410,000. As a result of the sale, the Partnership received net sale proceeds of approximately $2,799,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $1,044,000.

305 Interlocken Parkway

The 305 Interlocken Parkway property is a two-story office building containing approximately 49,000 rentable square feet located in Broomfield, Colorado. In November 2005, Fund VIII-IX Associates and Flextronics International USA, Inc. (“Flextronics”) entered into a 67-month lease that commenced in January 2006. The lease allowed for rental abatements during the first seven months of the lease term. As of December 31, 2007, the annualized base rent payable was approximately $370,000 and increases by approximately $24,000 each September through the life of the lease.

15253 Bake Parkway

The 15253 Bake Parkway property is a two-story office building containing approximately 65,000 rentable square feet on a 4.4-acre tract of land located within the Irvine Spectrum planned business community in metropolitan Orange County, California. On December 2, 2004, Fund VIII-IX-REIT Associates sold 15253 Bake Parkway to an unrelated third party for a gross sale price of $12,400,000. As a result of the sale of 15253 Bake Parkway, the Partnership received net sale proceeds of approximately $5,487,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $1,261,000.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we are party to legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in any litigation for which the outcome would, in the judgment of the General Partners based on information currently available, have a materially adverse impact on the results of operations or financial condition of the Partnership, nor is management aware of any such litigation threatened against us.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

No matters were submitted to a vote of the limited partners during the fourth quarter of 2007.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR PARTNERSHIP’S UNITS AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS.

Summary

As of February 29, 2008, 2,954,079 Class A Units and 249,187 Class B Units held by a total of 2,014 and 189 limited partners, respectively, were outstanding. The total number of Class B Units has decreased due to the rescission of certain units since the termination of the offering in 1996. Capital contributions are equal to $10.00 per each limited partnership unit. A public trading market has not been established for the Partnership’s limited partnership units, nor is such a market anticipated to develop in the future. The partnership agreement provides the General Partners with the right to prohibit transfers of units under certain circumstances.

Unit Valuation

Because fiduciaries of retirement plans subject to ERISA and the IRA custodians are required to determine and report the value of the assets held in their respective plans or accounts on an annual basis, the General Partners are required under the partnership agreement to report estimated unit values to the limited partners each year in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The methodology to be utilized for determining such estimated unit values under the partnership agreement requires the General Partners to estimate the amount a unit holder would receive assuming that the Partnership’s properties were sold at their estimated fair market values as of the end of the Partnership’s fiscal year and the proceeds therefrom (without any reduction for selling expenses) plus the amount of net sale proceeds held by the Partnership at year-end from previous property sales, if any, were distributed to the limited partners in liquidation. The estimated unit valuations are intended to be an estimate of the distributions that would be made to limited partners who purchased their units directly from the Partnership in the Partnership’s original public offering of units, and who have made no conversion elections under the partnership agreement.

The General Partners of the Partnership recently completed their estimated unit valuations as of December 31, 2007. Utilizing the foregoing methodology, the General Partners have estimated the Partnership’s unit valuations, based upon their estimates of property values as of December 31, 2007, to be approximately $4.65 per Class A Unit and $5.00 per Class B Unit, based upon market conditions existing in early December 2007. These estimates should not be viewed as an accurate reflection of the value of the limited partners’ units, what limited partners might be able to sell their units for, or the fair market value of the Partnership’s properties, nor do they necessarily represent the amount of net proceeds limited partners would receive if the Partnership’s properties were sold and the proceeds were distributed in a liquidation of the Partnership. There is no established public trading market for the Partnership’s limited partnership units, and it is not anticipated that a public trading market for the units will ever develop. In addition, property values are subject to change and could decline in the future. While, as required by the partnership agreement, the General Partners have obtained an opinion from The David L. Beal Company, an independent appraiser certified by the Member Appraisal Institute, to the effect that such estimates of value were deemed reasonable and were prepared in accordance with appropriate methods for valuing real estate, no actual appraisals were obtained due to the inordinate expense that would be involved in obtaining appraisals for all of the Partnership’s properties.

The valuations performed by the General Partners are estimates only, and are based on a number of assumptions which may not be accurate or complete and may or may not be applicable to any specific limited partnership units. For example, as a result of the availability of conversion elections under the partnership agreement and the resulting complexities involved relating to the distribution methodology under the partnership agreement, each limited partnership unit of the Partnership potentially has its own unique characteristics as to distributions and value. These estimated valuations assume, and are applicable only to, limited partners who have made no conversion elections under the partnership agreement and who purchased their units directly from the Partnership in the Partnership’s original public offering of units. Further, as set forth above, no third-party appraisals have or will be obtained. For these reasons, the estimated unit valuations set forth above should not be used by or relied

Page 22

upon by investors, other than fiduciaries of retirement plans and IRA custodians for limited ERISA and IRA reporting purposes, as any indication of the fair market value of their units. In addition, it should be noted that ERISA plan fiduciaries and IRA custodians may use estimated unit valuations obtained from other sources, such as prices paid for the Partnership’s units in secondary market trades, and that such estimated unit valuations may well be lower than those estimated by the General Partners using the methodology required by the partnership agreement.

It should also be noted that the Partnership is in the process of selling certain of its properties and that as properties are sold and the net proceeds from property sales are distributed to limited partners, the remaining value of the Partnership’s portfolio of properties, and resulting value of Partnership’s limited partnership units, will naturally decline. In considering the foregoing estimated unit valuations, it should be noted that the Partnership has previously distributed net sale proceeds in the amount of $4.94 per Class A Unit and $12.55 per Class B Unit to its limited partners. These amounts are intended to represent the per-unit distributions received by limited partners who purchased their units directly from the Partnership in the Partnership’s original public offering of units, and who have made no conversion elections under the partnership agreement. Limited partners who have made one or more conversion elections would have received a different level of per-unit distribution.

Operating Distributions

Operating cash available for distribution to the limited partners is generally distributed on a quarterly basis. Under the partnership agreement, distributions from net cash from operations are allocated first to the limited partners holding Class A Units (and limited partners holding Class B Units that have elected a conversion right that allows them to share in the distribution rights of limited partners holding Class A Units) until they have received 10% of their adjusted capital contributions. Initially Class A Unit holders are allocated none of the depreciation, amortization, cost recovery and interest expense. Cash available for distribution is then distributed to the General Partners until they have received an amount equal to 10% of cash distributions previously distributed to the limited partners. Any remaining cash available for distribution is split between the limited partners holding Class A Units and the General Partners on a basis of 90% and 10%, respectively. No operating distributions will be made to the limited partners holding Class B Units.

Operating cash distributions made to limited partners holding Class A Units during 2006 and 2007 are summarized below:

	Per Class A Unit
Operating Distributions for Quarter Ended	Total Operating Cash Distributed	Investment Income	Return of Capital
March 31, 2006	$269,899	$0.00	$0.09
June 30, 2006	$240,811	$0.00	$0.08
September 30, 2006	$181,170	$0.00	$0.06
December 31, 2006	$150,840	$0.00	$0.05
March 31, 2007	$135,427	$0.00	$0.05
June 30, 2007	$135,428	$0.00	$0.05
September 30, 2007	$135,427	$0.00	$0.05
December 31, 2007	$135,427	$0.00	$0.05

Operating distributions to limited partners are accrued for accounting purposes in the quarter earned and paid to Class A limited partners in the following quarter. No operating cash distributions were paid to holders of Class B Units or the General Partners during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Selected Financial Data presented in Item 6 and our accompanying financial statements and notes thereto. See also “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” preceding Part I of this report and “Risk Factors” in Item 1A. of this report.

Overview

Portfolio Overview

We are currently in the disposition-and-liquidation phase of our life cycle. We have sold six assets including the sale of 14079 Senlac Drive in the fourth quarter of 2007. The sale of 14079 Senlac Drive capitalized on its value with a credit tenant, even though there was less than five years remaining on the tenant’s lease term. Our focus at this time involves leasing the remaining vacancy at the US Cellular Building and concentrating on re-leasing and marketing efforts that we believe will ultimately result in the best disposition pricing of our assets for our limited partners.

Our General Partners have announced their intention to distribute net sale proceeds of approximately $3.0 million in May 2008 from the sales of the BellSouth Building, the Tanglewood Commons outparcels, and 14079 Senlac Drive.

The fourth quarter 2007 operating distributions to limited partners holding Class A Units remained consistent with the level paid in the prior quarter. We anticipate that operating distributions to limited partners may remain

Page 24

low or be reserved in the near-term as a result of funding our pro rata share of anticipated capital improvements and re-leasing costs associated with leasing the remaining vacant space at the US Cellular Building.

Property Summary

As we move further into the disposition-and-liquidation phase, our attention will shift to locating suitable buyers and negotiating purchase-sale contracts that will attempt to maximize the total return to our limited partners and minimize contingencies and our post-closing involvement with buyers.

Information relating to the properties owned, or previously owned, by the Joint Ventures is provided below:

• Hannover Center was sold on April 29, 2004.

• The 15253 Bake Parkway property was sold on December 2, 2004.

• An outparcel of land at Tanglewood Commons was sold on October 7, 2002. The Tanglewood Commons shopping center and one outparcel of land was sold on April 21, 2005. On October 12, 2005, a portion of one of the remaining outparcels of land was condemned. On January 31, 2007, the two remaining outparcels of land were sold to Wells Management, an affiliate of the General Partners, after seeking the approval of the limited partners.

• The CH2M Hill Building was sold on December 7, 2005.

• The BellSouth Building was sold on May 15, 2006.

• The 14079 Senlac Drive property was sold on November 29, 2007.

• The US Cellular Building, located in Madison, Wisconsin, is 73% leased until April 2013. We are actively working on re-leasing the remaining vacant space.

• The 305 Interlocken Parkway property, located in the Broomfield submarket of Denver, Colorado, is 100% leased through August 2011.

Industry Factors

Our results continue to be impacted by a number of factors influencing the real estate industry.

General Economic Conditions and Real Estate Market Commentary

The General Partners review a number of economic forecasts and market commentaries in order to evaluate general economic conditions and to formulate a view of the current environment’s effect on the real estate markets in which we operate.

As measured by the U.S. gross domestic product, the U.S. economy’s growth rate declined from 2.9% in 2006 to 2.2% in 2007, primarily due to declines in private inventory investment and residential fixed investment and decelerations in exports, the majority of which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2007.

The market fundamentals underlying the U.S. office markets remained healthy through the end of 2007, as evidenced by a steady average vacancy rate of 12.5% for the fourth quarter. However, recent trends in declining employment growth rates and new office supply coming on line suggest that market fundamentals could begin to deteriorate in 2008. However, as measured by office vacancy rates, the magnitude of deterioration is anticipated to be modest and will vary across markets.

The year 2007 was a record year for portfolio and individual property sale transactions. Total transaction volume for the year approximated $211 billion, an increase of 55% over 2006. The 2007 results were primarily attributable to several large portfolio sales that closed during the first half of the year. Credit market disruptions

Page 25

that originated in the single-family housing sector spread to the commercial sector by midyear, and as a result, the pace of sale transactions declined significantly during the second half of the year.

The valuation of commercial office buildings may be impacted by a recent increase in capitalization rates, or the first year rate of return required by an investor. Following the disruptions in the credit markets, capitalization rates started rising in the second half of 2007 after five years of continuous decline. Looking ahead to 2008, capitalization rates may continue to increase, although the magnitude of such increases may be more modest for higher-quality properties. Ultimately, property valuations will be determined by a combination of capitalization rates and underlying property fundamentals. Capitalization rate movements will be significantly influenced by factors such as the amount of capital awaiting investment in real estate and the availability of debt financing. From a fundamentals standpoint, the office sector of the real estate market may struggle over the near-term with slowing rental rate growth and the potential for increases in vacancy rates, especially in markets with a large concentration of mortgage lending firms. However, a moderate supply of office space, the potential for inflation, and a large amount of equity capital in the marketplace should lend support for existing Class A property values.

Impact of Economic Conditions on our Portfolio

While some of the market conditions noted above may indicate expected changes in rental rates, the extent to which our portfolio may be affected is dependent upon the contractual rental rates currently provided in existing leases at the properties we own. As the majority of our in-place leases are at properties that were acquired at times during which the market demanded higher rental rates, as compared with today, new leasing activities in certain markets may result in a decrease in future rental rates.

Real Estate Funds with Current Vacancy or Near-term Rollover Exposure

Less diversified real estate funds, such as the Partnership, that own fewer properties, and those with current vacancies or near-term tenant rollover, may face a challenging leasing environment. The properties within these funds may be required to offer lower rental rates and higher concession packages to potential tenants, the degree to which will depend heavily upon the specific property and market.

From a valuation standpoint, it is generally preferable to either renew an existing tenant lease or re-lease the property prior to marketing it for sale. Generally, buyers will heavily discount their offering prices to compensate for existing or pending vacancies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our operating strategy entails funding expenditures related to the recurring operations of the Joint Ventures’ properties and the portfolio with operating cash flows, including current and prior period operating distributions received from the Joint Ventures, and assessing the amount of remaining cash flows that will be required to fund known future re-leasing costs and other capital improvements. Any residual operating cash flows are generally considered available for distribution to the limited partners and, unless reserved, are generally paid quarterly. To the extent that operating cash flows are insufficient to fund our recurring operations, net sale proceeds will be utilized. As a result, the ongoing monitoring of our cash position is critical to ensuring that adequate liquidity and capital resources are available. Economic downturns in one or more of our core markets could adversely impact the ability of our tenants to honor lease payments and our ability to re-lease space on favorable terms as leases expire or space otherwise becomes vacant. In the event of either situation, cash flows and, consequently, our ability to provide funding for capital needs would be adversely affected.

Page 26

Short-Term Liquidity

During the year ended December 31, 2007, we generated net operating cash flows, including distributions received from Fund VIII-IX Associates, of approximately $288,000. Operating distributions from Fund VIII-IX Associates are generally representative of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements, less property operating expenses, management fees, general administrative expenses, and capital expenditures. During 2007, we used net operating cash flows and cash on hand to fund operating distributions to Class A limited partners of approximately $557,000. Future operating distributions paid to limited partners will be largely dependent upon the amount of cash generated from Fund VIII-IX Associates, our expectations of future cash flows, and determination of near-term cash needs for re-leasing costs and other capital improvements for the properties owned by the Fund VIII-IX Associates. We anticipate that future operating distributions from Fund VIII-IX Associates will decline as a result of the sale of 14079 Senlac Drive in November 2007, as well as funding anticipated re-leasing costs and capital improvements at the US Cellular Building. During 2007, we received net sale proceeds of approximately $3,036,000 from the sale of the Tanglewood Commons outparcels and 14079 Senlac Drive.

We believe that the cash on hand and distributions due from the Fund VIII-IX Associates are sufficient to cover our working capital needs, including liabilities of approximately $169,000 as of December 31, 2007.

Long-Term Liquidity

We expect that our future sources of capital will be primarily derived from operating cash flows generated from Fund VIII-IX Associates, and net proceeds generated from the selective and strategic sale of properties. Our future long-term liquidity requirements will include, but not be limited to, funding tenant improvements, renovations, expansions and other significant capital improvements necessary for properties owned through Fund VIII-IX Associates. We expect to continue to use substantially all future net cash flows from operations, including distributions received from Fund VIII-IX Associates, less, expenses related to the recurring operations of the properties and the portfolio and reserves for known or anticipated capital expenditures, to pay operating distributions to the limited partners.

Capital Resources

The Partnership is an investment vehicle formed for the purpose of acquiring, owning, and operating income-producing real properties or investing in joint ventures formed for the same purpose, and has invested all of the partners’ original net offering proceeds available for investment. Thus, it is unlikely that we will acquire interests in any additional properties or joint ventures. Historically, our investment strategy has generally involved acquiring properties on an all-cash basis that are pre-leased to creditworthy tenants through joint ventures with affiliated partnerships.

The Joint Ventures fund capital expenditures primarily related to building improvements for the purpose of maintaining the quality of their properties, and tenant improvements for the purpose of readying their properties for re-leasing. As leases expire, we will work with the Joint Ventures to attempt to re-lease space to an existing tenant or market the space to prospective new tenants. Generally, tenant improvements funded in connection with lease renewals require less capital than those funded in connection with new leases. However, external conditions, such as the supply of and demand for comparable space available within a given market, drive capital costs as well as rental rates. Any capital or other expenditures not provided for by the operations of the Joint Ventures will be funded by the Partnership and respective joint venture partners on a pro-rata basis.

Operating cash flows, if available, are generally distributed from the Joint Ventures to the Partnership following each calendar quarter-end. Our cash management policy typically includes first utilizing current period operating cash flow until depleted, at which point operating reserves are utilized to fund capital and other required expenditures. In the event that current and prior period accumulated operating cash flows are insufficient to fund such costs, net property sale proceeds reserves would then be utilized.

Upon evaluating the capital needs of the properties in which we currently hold an interest, our General Partners have determined to hold reserves of net sale proceeds of approximately $0.5 million to fund the our pro-rata share of anticipated re-leasing costs and capital improvements at the US Cellular Building. Accordingly, our General Partners anticipate distributing net sale proceeds of approximately $3.0 million in May 2008 from the sales of the BellSouth Building, the Tanglewood Commons outparcels, and 14079 Senlac Drive, as further discussed below.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

In December 2007, our General Partners announced their intention to distribute net sale proceeds from the sales of the BellSouth Building, the Tanglewood Commons outparcels, and 14079 Senlac Drive of approximately $3.0 million in May 2008 to the limited partners of record as of March 31, 2008, which, under the terms of the partnership agreement, does not include limited partners acquiring units after December 31, 2007. Following such distribution, we intend to

Page 28

hold residual net sale proceeds of approximately $0.5 million in reserve in order to fund our pro rata share of the anticipated re-leasing costs and capital improvements for the US Cellular Building.

This distribution has not been formally declared by our General Partners. In accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement, our General Partners may elect to retain reserves deemed reasonably necessary for the Partnership in the sole discretion of our General Partners. Thus, should a change in circumstances prior to the intended distribution date require our General Partners to reevaluate our reserve requirements, it is possible that this distribution may not occur, or that distributions may be made at a lower amount.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2007 vs. the year ended December 31, 2006

Equity in Income of Joint Ventures

Equity in income of Joint Ventures was $1,425,822 and $3,262,823 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The 2007 decrease is primarily attributable to (i) the gain recognized from the sale of the BellSouth Building in May 2006; (ii) additional lease termination income recognized in the first two quarters of 2006 as a result of satisfying the remaining conditions of a termination agreement with a tenant that previously occupied 305 Interlocken Parkway; (iii) a decrease in operating income resulting from the sale of the BellSouth Building in May 2006 and the sale of 14079 Senlac Drive in November 2007; (iv) a decline in rental income as a result of a lease restructuring at the US Cellular Building, which reduced the square footage leased and the rental rate, partially offset by (v) the gains recognized from the sales of the remaining Tanglewood Commons outparcels in January 2007 and 14079 Senlac Drive in November 2007.

We expect equity in income of Fund VIII-IX Associates to decrease in future periods as a result of recognizing a nonrecurring gain on the sale of 14079 Senlac Drive, as well as a decrease in operating income as a result of this sale.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses of the Partnership were $189,471 and $242,303 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The 2007 decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in legal fees and printing costs associated with the 2006 proxy statement filings and mailings, partially offset by an increase in accounting fees related to compliance with reporting and regulatory requirements.

We anticipate that changes in the future levels of our general and administrative expenses will vary primarily dependent upon changes in our reporting and regulatory requirements.

Interest and Other Income

Interest and other income was $50,019 and $220,640 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The 2007 decrease is a result of a decrease in the average amount of net sale proceeds held during the respective periods as a result of the May 2006 net sale proceeds distribution, partially offset by, net sale proceeds received from the sales of the remaining Tanglewood Commons outparcels in January 2007 and 14079 Senlac Drive in November 2007.

Future levels of interest income will be largely dependent upon the timing of future dispositions and net sales proceeds distributions to the limited partners.

Comparison of the year ended December 31, 2006 vs. the year ended December 31, 2005

Equity in Income of Joint Ventures

Equity in income of Joint Ventures was $3,262,823 and $5,362,503 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The 2006 decrease was primarily attributable to (i) the gain recognized from the sales of Tanglewood Commons shopping center in the second quarter of 2005 and the CH2M Hill Building in the fourth quarter of 2005; (ii) a decrease in operating income resulting from the aforementioned sales; (iii) a decrease in US Cellular rental income as a result of the executed lease amendment terms, partially offset by (iv) the gain recognized on the sale of the BellSouth Building in the second quarter of 2006; and (v) additional lease termination income recognized in the first two quarters of 2006 as a result of satisfying the remaining conditions of a termination agreement with a tenant that previously occupied 305 Interlocken Parkway.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses of the Partnership were $242,303 and $230,435 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The 2006 increase was primarily attributable to (i) increases in legal fees and mailing and printing costs associated with the proxy statement filings and mailings, (ii) an increase in Wisconsin recycle surcharge tax, partially offset by (iii) a decrease in administrative costs relative to the decrease in the size of the portfolio as a result of sales of properties.

Interest and Other Income

Interest and other income was $220,640 and $82,122 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The 2006 increase was a result of (i) an increase in the average amount of net sale proceeds held during 2006 as a result of the sales of the Tanglewood Commons shopping center in April 2005, the CH2M Hill Building in December 2005, and the BellSouth Building in May 2006; and (ii) an increase in the daily interest yield, partially offset by (iii) the distributions of net sale proceeds in 2006.

Inflation

We are exposed to inflation risk, as income from long-term leases is the primary source of our cash flows from operations. There are provisions in the majority of our tenant leases that would protect us from the impact of inflation. These provisions include rent steps, reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges, real estate tax and insurance reimbursements on a per-square-foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above a certain per-square-foot allowance. However, due to the long-term nature of our leases, the leases may not readjust their reimbursement rates frequently enough to cover inflation.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

Our accounting policies have been established to conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If management’s judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.

Below is a discussion of the accounting policies used by the Partnership and the Joint Ventures, which are considered critical in that they may require complex judgment in their application or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

Page 30

Investment in Real Estate Assets

We are required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our depreciable assets. We consider the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income. The estimated useful lives of the Joint Ventures’ assets by class are as follows:

Buildings	40 years
Building improvements	5-25 years
Land improvements	20 years
Tenant improvements	Shorter of lease term or economic life

In the event that the Joint Ventures utilize inappropriate useful lives or methods of depreciation, our net income would be misstated.

Valuation of Real Estate Assets

We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets in which we have an ownership interest through investments in the Joint Ventures may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present which indicate that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of the real estate assets by determining whether the carrying value of the real estate assets will be recovered through the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, management adjusts the real estate assets to the fair value, and recognizes an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are calculated based on the following information, dependent upon availability, in order of preference: (i) recently quoted market prices, (ii) market prices for comparable properties, or (iii) the present value of undiscounted cash flows, including estimated salvage value. We have determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of any of our real estate assets held as of December 31, 2007.

Projections of expected future cash flows require management to estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, discount rates, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriate assumptions in the future cash flow analysis would result in an incorrect assessment of the property’s future cash flows and fair value, and could result in the overstatement of the carrying value of real estate assets held by the Joint Ventures and net income of the Partnership.

Related-Party Transactions and Agreements

We have entered into agreements with Wells Capital and Wells Management, affiliates of our General Partners, or their affiliates, whereby we pay certain fees and expense reimbursements to Wells Capital, Wells Management, or their affiliates for asset management; the management and leasing of our properties; administrative services relating to accounting, property management, and other partnership administration; and incur the related expenses. See Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” for a description of these fees and reimbursements and amounts incurred and “Risk Factors – Conflicts of Interest” in Item 1A. of this report.

Potential Tax Impact for Limited Partners Holding Class B Units – American Jobs Creation Act of 2004

The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 added Section 470 to the Internal Revenue Code, which initially provided for certain limitations on the utilization of losses by investors that are attributable to leased property owned by a partnership having both taxable and tax-exempt partners such as the Partnership. If the limitations of Section 470 were applicable to the Partnership, passive losses allocable to limited partners holding Class B Units could only be utilized to offset passive income generated from the same property or potentially from properties owned by the Partnership. However, following the enactment of Section 470, the IRS issued a series of

Page 31

announcements applicable to taxable years 2004, 2005, and 2006, which had the effect of delaying the applicability of Section 470 to partnerships based solely on the fact that a partnership had both taxable and tax-exempt partners. In addition, Section 403(ff) of the Gulf Opportunity Zone Act of 2005 amended the effective date provisions of Section 470 to provide that, in the case of leased property treated as tax-exempt use property by reason of its being owned by a partnership having both taxable and tax-exempt partners, Section 470 applies only to property acquired after March 12, 2004. Further, in December 2007, the Tax Technical Corrections Act of 2007 (the “2007 Technical Corrections Act”) was enacted. Section 407(c) of the 2007 Technical Corrections Act amended Section 470 to exempt partnerships having both taxable and tax-exempt partners from the application of Section 470 (with a limited exception applicable only to partnerships which could be reclassified as “leases” under the facts and circumstance of the transaction). These provisions of the 2007 Technical Corrections Act are effective as if they were included in the American Jobs Creation Act initially. Since the Partnership acquired all of its properties prior to March 12, 2004, and is not expected to acquire interests in any additional properties in the future, and as a result of the recently enacted 2007 Technical Corrections Act, we do not believe that the provisions of Section 470 should apply to limit the utilization of losses attributable to the properties owned by the Partnership in any year.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Since we do not borrow any money, make any foreign investments, or invest in any market risk-sensitive instruments, we are not subject to risks relating to interest rates, foreign current exchange rate fluctuations, or the other market risks contemplated by Item 305 of Regulation S-K.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

Our financial statements and supplementary data are detailed under Item 15(a) and filed as part of the report on the pages indicated.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

On September 22, 2006, the Financial Oversight Committee of the General Partners dismissed Ernst & Young LLP as the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately. Also, on September 22, 2006, the Financial Oversight Committee engaged Frazier & Deeter, LLC as the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm.

Ernst & Young LLP’s report on the financial statements of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2005 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, and the subsequent interim period through September 22, 2006, there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young LLP on any matters related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures, or auditing scope or procedures, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young LLP, would have caused Ernst & Young LLP to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements of the Partnership for such years. There were no reportable events as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Partnership provided Ernst & Young LLP with a copy of the Form 8-K filed with regard to the change in independent registered public accounting firm, which was filed with the SEC on September 27, 2006, and requested that Ernst & Young LLP furnish the Partnership with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the foregoing statements. A copy of Ernst & Young LLP’s letter dated September 27, 2006, was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the September 27, 2006 Form 8-K.

Page 32

During the year ended December 31, 2005, and through September 22, 2006, the Partnership did not consult with Frazier & Deeter, LLC with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Partnership’s financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events as set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

There were no disagreements with the Partnership’s independent public accountants during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

ITEM 9A(T).     CONTROL AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management of Wells Capital, the corporate general partner of one of our General Partners, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of December 31, 2007. Based upon that evaluation, which was completed as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at December 31, 2007 in providing a reasonable level of assurance that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer and effected by our management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:

• pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of the assets of the Partnership;

• provide reasonable assurance that the transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Partnership are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and/or members of the Financial Oversight Committee; and

• provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnership’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls, material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes and conditions or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Accordingly, even internal controls determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and represented within the time periods required.

Page 33

Our management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2007. To make this assessment, we used the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, our management believes that as of December 31, 2007, our system of internal control over financial reporting met those criteria.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Partnership to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2007, all items required to be disclosed under Form 8-K were reported under Form 8-K.

PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT’S GENERAL PARTNERS.

Wells Partners

The sole general partner of Wells Partners, one of our General Partners, is Wells Capital, a Georgia corporation. The executive offices of Wells Capital are located at 6200 The Corners Parkway, Norcross, Georgia 30092. Wells Capital was organized on April 18, 1984 under the Georgia Business Corporation Code, and is primarily in the business of serving as general partner or as an affiliate to the general partner in affiliated public limited partnerships (“Wells Real Estate Funds”). Wells Capital or its affiliates serves as the advisor to the Wells Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. and Wells Timberland REIT, Inc. (collectively, “Wells REITs”), each of which are Maryland corporations. Wells Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. qualifies as a real estate investment trust, and Wells Timberland REIT, Inc. intends to qualify as a real estate investment trust. In these capacities, Wells Capital performs certain services for Wells Real Estate Funds and the Wells REITs, including presenting, structuring, and acquiring real estate investment opportunities; entering into leases and service contracts on acquired properties; arranging for and completing the disposition of properties; and providing other services such as accounting and administrative functions. Wells Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of WREF, of which Leo F. Wells, III is the sole stockholder.

Leo F. Wells, III

Mr. Wells, 64, who serves as one of our General Partners, is the president, treasurer, and sole director of Wells Capital, which is our corporate general partner. He is also the sole stockholder, president, and sole director of WREF, the parent corporation of Wells Capital, Wells Management, Wells Investment Securities, Inc. (“WIS”), and Wells & Associates, Inc., a real estate brokerage and investment company formed in 1976 and incorporated in 1978, for which Mr. Wells serves as principal broker. He is also the president, treasurer, and sole director of:

• Wells Management, our property manager;

• Wells Asset Management, Inc.;

• Wells & Associates, Inc.; and

• Wells Development Corporation, a company he organized in 1997 to develop real properties.

Mr. Wells is a director of each of the Wells REITs, which are Maryland corporations that either currently qualify as a real estate investment trust or intend to qualify as a real estate investment trust.

Mr. Wells was a real estate salesman and property manager from 1970 to 1973 for Roy D. Warren & Company, an Atlanta-based real estate company, and he was associated from 1973 to 1976 with Sax Gaskin Real Estate Company. From 1980 to February 1985 he served as Vice President of Hill-Johnson, Inc., a Georgia corporation engaged in the construction business. Mr. Wells holds a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in economics from the University of Georgia. Mr. Wells is a member of the Financial Planning Association.

On August 26, 2003, Mr. Wells and WIS entered into a Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (“AWC”) with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (“NASD”) relating to alleged rule violations. The AWC set forth the NASD’s findings that WIS and Mr. Wells had violated conduct rules relating to the provision of noncash compensation of more than $100 to associated persons of NASD member firms in connection with their attendance at the annual educational and due diligence conferences sponsored by WIS in 2001 and 2002. Without admitting or denying the allegations and findings against them, WIS and Mr. Wells consented in the AWC to various findings by the NASD, which are summarized in the following paragraph:

In 2001 and 2002, WIS sponsored conferences attended by registered representatives who sold its real estate investment products. WIS also paid for certain expenses of guests of the registered representatives who attended the conferences. In 2001, WIS paid the costs of travel to the conference and meals for many of the

Page 35

guests, and paid the costs of playing golf for some of the registered representatives and their guests. WIS later invoiced registered representatives for the cost of golf and for travel expenses of guests, but was not fully reimbursed for such. In 2002, WIS paid for meals for the guests. WIS also conditioned most of the 2001 conference invitations on attainment by the registered representatives of a predetermined sales goal for WIS products. This conduct violated the prohibitions against payment and receipt of noncash compensation in connection with the sales of these products contained in NASD’s Conduct Rules 2710, 2810, and 3060. In addition, WIS and Mr. Wells failed to adhere to all of the terms of their written undertaking made in March 2001 not to engage in the conduct described above, and thereby engaged in conduct that was inconsistent with high standards of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade in violation of NASD Conduct Rule 2110.

WIS consented to a censure and Mr. Wells consented to suspension from acting in a principal capacity with an NASD member firm for one year. WIS and Mr. Wells also agreed to the imposition of a joint and several fine in the amount of $150,000. Mr. Wells’ one-year suspension from acting in a principal capacity ended on October 6, 2004. Mr. Wells continues to represent the issuer and perform other nonprincipal activities on behalf of WIS.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the officers and directors of the general partner of our general partner, and persons who own 10% or more of any class of equity interests in the Partnership, to report their beneficial ownership of equity interests in the Partnership to the SEC. Their initial reports are required to be filed using the SEC’s Form 3, and they are required to report subsequent purchases, sales, and other changes using the SEC’s Form 4, which must be filed within two business days of most transactions. Officers, directors, and partners owning more than 10% of any class of equity interests in the Partnership are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all of reports they file pursuant to Section 16(a).

Financial Oversight Committee

The Partnership does not have a board of directors or an audit committee. Accordingly, as the corporate general partner of one of the General Partners of the Partnership, Wells Capital has established a Financial Oversight Committee consisting of Leo F. Wells, III, as the Principal Executive Officer; Douglas P. Williams, as the Principal Financial Officer; and Randall D. Fretz, as the Senior Vice President of Wells Capital. The Financial Oversight Committee serves the equivalent function of an audit committee for, among others, the following purposes: appointment, compensation, review and oversight of the work of our independent registered public accountant, and establishing and enforcing the code of ethics. However, since neither the Partnership nor its corporate general partner has an audit committee and the Financial Oversight Committee is not independent of the Partnership or the General Partners, we do not have an “audit committee financial expert.”

Code of Ethics

The Partnership has adopted a code of ethics applicable to Wells Capital’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as well as the principal accounting officer, controller or other employees of Wells Capital performing similar functions on behalf of the Partnership, if any. The code of ethics is contained in the Business Standards/Code of Conduct/General Policies established by WREF. You may obtain a copy of this code of ethics, without charge, upon request by calling our Client Services Department at 800-557-4830 or 770-243-8282.

ITEM 11. COMPENSATION OF GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES.

While the Partnership is managed by the General Partners and their affiliates, it does not pay any salaries or other compensation directly to the General Partners or to any individual employees, officers, or directors of the General Partners. Further, the Partnership does not employ, and is not managed by, any of its own employees, officers, or directors. Accordingly, no compensation has been awarded to, earned by, or paid to any such

Page 36

individuals in connection with the management of the Partnership. Due to our current management structure and our lack of any direct employees, officers, or directors, no discussion and analysis of compensation paid by the Partnership nor tabular information concerning salaries, bonuses, and other types of compensation to executive officers or directors of the Partnership has been included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

See Item 13, “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions,” for a description of the fees incurred by the Partnership payable to affiliates of the General Partners during the year ended December 31, 2007.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT.

(a) No limited partner owns beneficially more than 5% of any class of the outstanding units of the Partnership.

(b) Set forth below is the security ownership of management as of February 29, 2008.

Title of Class	Name of Beneficial Owner	Amount and Nature of Beneficial Ownership	Percent of Class
Limited Partnership Units	Leo F. Wells, III	9,140.881 Units(1)	Less than 1%

⁽¹⁾ Leo F. Wells, III owns 4,140.881 Class A Units through an Individual Retirement Account and 5,000 Class A Units through Wells Capital.

(c) No arrangements exist which would, upon execution thereof, result in a change in control of the Partnership.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

The compensation and fees we pay to our General Partners or their affiliates in connection with our operations are described below:

Interest in Partnership Cash Flow and Net Sale Proceeds

The General Partners are entitled to receive a subordinated participation in net cash flow from operations equal to 10% of net cash flow after the limited partners holding Class A Units have received preferential distributions equal to 10% of their adjusted capital accounts in each fiscal year. The General Partners are also entitled to receive a subordinated participation in net sales proceeds and net financing proceeds equal to 20% of residual proceeds available for distribution after limited partners holding Class A Units have received a return of their adjusted capital contributions plus a 10% cumulative return on their adjusted capital contributions, and limited partners holding Class B Units have received a return of their adjusted capital contributions plus a 15% cumulative return on their adjusted capital contributions; provided, however, that in no event shall the General Partners receive in the aggregate in excess of 15% of net sales proceeds and net financing proceeds remaining after payments to limited partners from such proceeds of amounts equal to the sum of their adjusted capital contributions plus a 6% cumulative return on their adjusted capital contributions. The General Partners did not receive any distributions of net cash from operations or net sale proceeds for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Management and Leasing Fees

In accordance with the property management and leasing agreement, Wells Management, an affiliate of the General Partners, receives compensation for asset management and the management and leasing of our properties owned through Joint Ventures equal to (a) 3% for management services and 3% for leasing services of the gross revenues collected monthly; plus a separate fee for the one-time initial lease-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm’s-length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties, which is assessed periodically based on market studies, or (b) in the case of commercial properties that are leased on a long-term net basis (ten or more years), 1% of the gross revenues except for initial leasing fees equal to 3% of the gross revenues over the first five years of the lease term. Management and leasing fees are paid by the Joint Ventures and, accordingly, included in

Page 37

equity in income of joint ventures in the accompanying statement of operations. Our share of management and leasing fees and lease acquisition costs incurred though the Joint Ventures that are payable to Wells Management is $66,195, $79,754, and $117,919 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

Real Estate Commissions

In connection with the sale of our properties, the General Partners or their affiliates may receive commissions not exceeding the lesser of (a) 50% of the commissions customarily charged by other brokers in arm’s-length transactions involving comparable properties in the same geographic area or (b) 3% of the gross sales price of the property, and provided that payments of such commissions will be made only after limited partners have received prior distributions totaling 100% of their capital contributions plus a 6% cumulative return on their adjusted capital contributions. No real estate commissions were paid to the General Partners or affiliates for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, or 2005.

Procedures Regarding Related-Party Transactions

Our policies and procedures governing related-party transactions with our General Partners and their affiliates, including, but not limited to, all transactions required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, are restricted or severely limited by the provisions of Articles XI, XII, XIII, and XIV of our partnership agreement, which has been filed with the SEC. No transaction has been entered into with either of our General Partners or their affiliates that does not comply with those policies and procedures. In addition, in any transaction involving a potential conflict of interest, including any transaction that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, our General Partners must view such a transaction after taking into consideration their fiduciary duties to the Partnership.

Administrative Reimbursements

Wells Capital, the corporate general partner of Wells Partners, one of the Partnership’s General Partners, and Wells Management perform certain administrative services for the Partnership, relating to accounting and other partnership administration, and incurs the related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among other entities affiliated with the General Partners based on estimates of the amount of time dedicated to each fund by individual administrative personnel. In the opinion of the General Partners, this allocation is a reasonable estimation of such expenses. We incurred administrative expenses of $86,474, $80,771, and $112,191 payable to Wells Capital and Wells Management for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES.

Preapproval Policies and Procedures

The Financial Oversight Committee preapproves all auditing and permissible nonauditing services provided by our independent registered public accountants. The approval may be given as part of the Financial Oversight Committee’s approval of the scope of the engagement of our independent registered public accountants or on an individual basis. The preapproval of certain audit-related services and certain nonauditing services not exceeding enumerated dollar limits may be delegated to one or more of the Financial Oversight Committee’s members, but the member to whom such authority is delegated shall report any preapproval decisions to the full Financial Oversight Committee. Our independent registered public accountants may not be retained to perform the nonauditing services specified in Section 10A(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Page 38

Fees Paid to the Independent Registered Public Accountants

On September 22, 2006, the Financial Oversight Committee of the General Partners dismissed Ernst & Young LLP as the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm, which had served as the Partnership’s independent registered public accountants since July 3, 2002, and appointed Frazier & Deeter, LLC to serve in that capacity for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. All such fees are recognized in the period to which the services relate. A portion of such fees are allocated to the joint ventures in which the Partnership invests. The aggregate fees billed to the Partnership for professional accounting services by Frazier & Deeter, LLC and Ernst & Young LLP, including the audit of the Partnership’s annual financial statements, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, are set forth in the table below.

	Frazier & Deeter, LLC				Ernst & Young LLP
	2007		2006		2007		2006
Audit Fees	$	28,132	$	25,920	$	0	$	0
Audit-Related Fees		0		0		0		0
Tax Fees		0		0		15,919		19,093
Other Fees		0		0		0		0
Total	$	28,132	$	25,920	$	15,919	$	19,093

For purposes of the preceding table, the professional fees are classified as follows:

• Audit Fees – These are fees for professional services performed for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of financial statements included in our Form 10-Q filings, services that are normally provided by independent registered public accountants in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements, and services that generally independent registered public accountants reasonably can provide, such as statutory audits, attest services, consents, and assistance with and review of documents filed with the SEC.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The General Partners of

Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P. (the “Partnership”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of operations, partners’ capital, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Wells, III is the president and sole director of Wells Capital and the president, sole director, and sole owner of Wells Real Estate Funds, Inc.

The Partnership commenced active operations upon receiving and accepting subscriptions for 125,000 units on February 24, 1995.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The Partnership’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Partnership’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment in Joint Ventures

The Partnership has evaluated the Joint Ventures and concluded that none are variable-interest entities under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, which supersedes FIN No. 46 and is an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements. The Partnership does not have control over the operations of the Joint Ventures; however, it does exercise significant influence. Approval by the Partnership as well as the other joint venture partners is required for any major decision or any action that would materially affect the Joint Ventures or their real property investments. Accordingly, upon applying the provisions of Statement of Financial

Page F-9

Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 94, Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries, ARB No. 51, and Statement of Position (“SOP”) No. 78-9, Accounting for Investments In Real Estate Ventures, the Partnership accounts for its investments in the Joint Ventures using the equity method of accounting, whereby original investments are recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for contributions, distributions, and net income (loss) attributable to the Partnership. Pursuant to the terms of the joint venture agreements, all income (loss) and distributions are allocated to joint venture partners in accordance with their respective ownership interests. Distributions of net cash from operations, if available, are generally distributed to the joint venture partners on a quarterly basis.

The Partnership continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets owned through the Partnership’s investment in the Joint Ventures may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present, management assesses whether the respective carrying values will be recovered with the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition for assets held for use, or with the estimated fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale. In the event that the expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use or the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale do not exceed the respective asset carrying value, management adjusts such assets to the respective estimated fair values and recognizes an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are calculated based on the following information, dependent upon availability, in order of preference: (i) recently quoted market prices, (ii) market prices for comparable properties, or (iii) the present value of undiscounted cash flows, including estimated salvage value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Partnership considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and consist of investments in money market accounts.

Other Assets

As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, other assets is comprised of the following items:

	2007		2006
Interest receivable	$	13,229	$	3,595
Insurance refund receivable		123		2,056
Total	$	13,352	$	5,651

Interest receivable represents interest earned during the period presented, which will be received in the following month. Insurance refund receivable represents excess premiums due from the insurance carrier. Balances without a future economic benefit are written off as they are identified.

Distributions of Net Cash from Operations

Net cash from operations, if available, is generally distributed quarterly to the limited partners as follows:

• First, to all limited partners holding Class A Units on a per-unit basis until such limited partners have received distributions equal to a 10% per annum return on their respective net capital contributions, as defined.

• Second, to the General Partners until the General Partners have received distributions equal to 10% of the total cumulative distributions paid by the Partnership.

• Third, to the limited partners holding Class A Units on a per-unit basis and the General Partners allocated on a basis of 90% and 10%, respectively.

No distributions of net cash from operations will be made to limited partners holding Class B Units.

Page F-10

Distribution of Sale Proceeds

Upon sales of properties, unless reserved, net sale proceeds are distributed in the following order:

• In the event that the particular property sold is sold for a price less than its original property purchase price, to the limited partners holding Class A Units until they have received an amount equal to the excess of the original property purchase price over the price for which the property was sold, limited to the amount of depreciation, amortization, and cost recovery deductions taken by the limited partners holding Class B Units with respect to such property;

• To limited partners holding units, which at any time have been treated as Class B Units, until each limited partner has received an amount necessary to equal the net cash available for distribution previously received by the limited partners holding Class A Units on a per-unit basis;

• To all limited partners on a per-unit basis until they have received 100% of their respective net capital contributions, as defined;

• To all limited partners on a per-unit basis until they have received a cumulative 10% per annum return on their respective net capital contributions, as defined;

• To limited partners on a per-unit basis until they have received an amount equal to their respective preferential limited partners’ returns (defined as the sum of a 10% per annum cumulative return on net capital contributions for all periods during which the units were treated as Class A Units and a 15% per annum cumulative return on net capital contributions for all periods during which the units were treated as Class B Units);

• To the General Partners until they have received 100% of their respective capital contributions; in the event that the limited partners have received aggregate cash distributions from the Partnership over the life of their respective investments in excess of a return of their respective net capital contributions, plus the preferential limited partner return, the General Partners shall receive an additional sum equal to 25% of such excess; and

• Thereafter, 80% to the limited partners on a per-unit basis and 20% to the General Partners.

Allocations of Net Income, Net Loss, and Gain on Sale

For the purpose of determining allocations per the partnership agreement, net income is defined as net income recognized by the Partnership, excluding deductions for depreciation, amortization, and cost recovery and the gain on the sale of assets. Net income, as defined, of the Partnership is generally allocated each year in the same proportions that net cash from operations is distributed to the limited partners holding Class A Units and the General Partners. To the extent the Partnership’s net income in any year exceeds net cash from operations, it will be allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General Partners.

Net loss, depreciation, and amortization deductions for each fiscal year will be allocated as follows: (a) 99% to the limited partners holding Class B Units and 1% to the General Partners until their capital accounts are reduced to zero; (b) then, to any partner having a positive balance in his capital account in an amount not to exceed such positive balance; and (c) thereafter, to the General Partners.

Gain on the sale or exchange of the Partnership’s properties will be allocated generally in the same manner that the net proceeds from such sale are distributed to partners after the following allocations are made, if applicable: (a) allocations made pursuant to the qualified income offset provisions of the partnership agreement; (b) allocations to partners having negative capital accounts until all negative capital accounts have been restored to zero; and (c) allocations to limited partners holding Class B Units in amounts equal to the deductions for depreciation and amortization previously allocated to them with respect to the specific partnership property sold, but not in excess of the amount of gain on sale recognized by the Partnership with respect to the sale of such property.

Income Taxes

The Partnership is not subject to federal or state income taxes; therefore, none have been provided for in the accompanying financial statements. The partners are required to include their respective shares of profits and losses in their individual income tax returns.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which clarifies the relevant criteria and approach for the recognition, derecognition, and measurement of uncertain tax positions. FIN No. 48 was effective for the Partnership beginning January 1, 2007. The adoption of this pronouncement has not had a material impact on the Partnership’s financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Partnership is currently assessing these provisions and evaluating the financial impact of SFAS No. 159 on its financial statements; however, it is not currently planning to adopt the fair value option in 2008.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures required for fair value measurements under GAAP, including amending SFAS No. 144. SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, as opposed to an entity-specific measurement. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. SFAS 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13 (“FSP 157-1”). FSP 157-1, which is effective upon the initial adoption of SFAS No. 157, excludes SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, as well as other accounting pronouncements that address fair value measurements on lease classification or measurement under SFAS No. 13, from the scope of SFAS No. 157. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. SFAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP 157-2”). FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonrecurring nonfinancial assets and liabilities until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Accordingly, FSP 157-2 will be effective for the Partnership beginning January 1, 2009, and all other aspects of SFAS No. 157 will be effective for the Partnership beginning January 1, 2008. The Partnership is currently assessing the provisions and evaluating the financial impact of SFAS No. 157, FSP 157-1, and FSP 157-2 on its financial statements; however, the Partnership does not believe the adoption of this pronouncement will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In June 2007, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) issued SOP 07-1, Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and Accounting Guide “Investment Companies” and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method Investors for Investments in Investment Companies, which provides guidance for determining which entities fall within the scope of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and requires additional disclosures for certain of those entities. In October 2007, the FASB elected to indefinitely defer the effective date of SOP 07-1. As a result, the Partnership has postponed its evaluation of the provisions of SOP 07-1 and the related impact on its financial statements and accompanying notes.

4. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Management and Leasing Fees

The Partnership entered into a property management and leasing agreement with Wells Management Company, Inc. (“Wells Management”), an affiliate of the General Partners. In accordance with the property management and leasing agreement, Wells Management receives compensation for the management and leasing of the Partnership’s properties owned through the Joint Ventures, equal to (a) 3% for management services and 3% for leasing services of the gross revenues collected monthly; plus a separate fee for the one-time initial lease-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily

Page F-14

charged in arm’s-length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties, which is assessed periodically based on market studies; or (b) in the case of commercial properties leased on a long-term net basis (10 or more years), 1% of the gross revenues except for initial leasing fees equal to 3% of the gross revenues over the first five years of the lease term. Management and leasing fees are paid by the Joint Ventures and, accordingly, included in equity in income of joint ventures in the accompanying statements of operations. The Partnership’s share of management and leasing fees and lease acquisition costs incurred through the Joint Ventures that are payable to Wells Management is $66,195, $79,754, and $117,919 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

Administrative Reimbursements

Wells Capital, the corporate general partner of Wells Partners, one of the Partnership’s general partners, and Wells Management perform certain administrative services for the Partnership, relating to accounting and other partnership administration, and incur the related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among other entities affiliated with the General Partners based on estimates of the amount of time dedicated to each fund by individual administrative personnel. In the opinion of the General Partners, this allocation is a reasonable estimation of such expenses. The Partnership incurred administrative expenses of $86,474, $80,771, and $112,191 payable to Wells Capital and Wells Management for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. In addition, Wells Capital pays for certain operating expenses of the Partnership (“bill-backs”) directly, and generally invoices the Partnership for the reimbursement thereof on a quarterly basis. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, due to affiliates represents administrative reimbursements and/or bill-backs due to Wells Capital and/or Wells Management.

5. PER-UNIT AMOUNTS

Income (loss) per limited partnership unit amounts are calculated based upon weighted-average units outstanding during the respective periods. Income (loss) per limited partnership unit, as presented in the accompanying financial statements, will vary from the per-unit amounts attributable to the individual investors due to the differences between the GAAP and tax basis treatment of certain items of income and expense and the fact that, within the respective classes of Class A Units and Class B Units, individual units have different characteristics including capital bases, cumulative operating and net property sales proceeds distributions, and cumulative earnings allocations as a result of, among other things, the ability of unit holders to elect to be treated as Class A Units or Class B Units, or to change their prior elections, on a quarterly basis.

For the reasons mentioned above, distributions of net sale proceeds per unit also vary among individual unit holders. Distributions of net sale proceeds have been calculated at the investor level pursuant to the partnership agreement and allocated between the Class A and Class B limited partners in the period paid. Accordingly, distributions of net sale proceeds per unit, as presented in the accompanying financial statements, vary from the per-unit amounts attributable to the individual investors.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Distribution of Net Sale Proceeds

In December 2007, the General Partners announced their intention to distribute net sale proceeds of approximately $3.0 million in May 2008 from the sales of the BellSouth Building, the Tanglewood Commons outparcels, and 14079 Senlac Drive to the limited partners of record as of March 31, 2008, which, under the terms of the partnership agreement, does not include limited partners acquiring units after December 31, 2007. Following such distribution, the General Partners intend to hold residual net sale proceeds of approximately $0.5 million in reserve in order to fund the Partnership’s pro rata share of the anticipated re-leasing costs and capital improvements for the US Cellular Building.

This distribution has not been formally declared by the General Partners. In accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement, the General Partners may elect to retain reserves deemed reasonably necessary for the Partnership in the sole discretion of the General Partners. Thus, should a change in circumstances prior to the intended distribution date require the General Partners to reevaluate the Partnership’s reserve requirements, it is possible that this distribution may not occur, or that distributions may be made at a lower amount.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The General Partners of

Fund VI, Fund VII and Fund VIII Associates:

We have audited the accompanying statement of operations, partners’ capital, and cash flows of Fund VI, Fund VII and Fund VIII Associates (the “Joint Venture”) for the year in the period ended December 31, 2006. Our audit also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Joint Venture’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Joint Venture’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Joint Venture’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The General Partners of

Fund VI, Fund VII and Fund VIII Associates:

We have audited the accompanying statement of operations, partners’ capital, and cash flows of Fund VI, Fund VII and Fund VIII Associates (the “Joint Venture”) for the year in the period ended December 31, 2005. Our audit also included the financial statement schedule as of December 31, 2005 and for the year then ended listed in the index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Joint Venture’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Joint Venture’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Joint Venture’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of Fund VI, Fund VII and Fund VIII Associates for the year in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2007 (UNAUDITED), 2006, AND 2005

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

On April 17, 1995, Wells Real Estate Fund VI, L.P. (“Fund VI”), Wells Real Estate Fund VII, L.P. (“Fund VII”), and Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P. (“Fund VIII”) entered into a Georgia general partnership to form Fund VI, Fund VII and Fund VIII Associates (the “Joint Venture”). The general partners of Fund VI, Fund VII, and Fund VIII are Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P., a private Georgia limited partnership.

The Joint Venture was formed to acquire, develop, operate, and sell real properties. On April 25, 1995, the Joint Venture purchased a 5.55-acre parcel of land in Jacksonville, Florida and constructed an approximate 92,000-square-foot office building, the BellSouth Building. On May 15, 2006, the Joint Venture sold the BellSouth Building to an unrelated third party for a gross selling price of approximately $13,378,000. As a result of the sale, the Joint Venture recognized a gain of approximately $6,725,000 and received net sale proceeds of approximately $12,847,000.

On May 31, 1995, the Joint Venture purchased a 14.683-acre parcel of land located in Clemmons, North Carolina and constructed an approximate 67,000-square-foot retail shopping center, Tanglewood Commons. On October 7, 2002, the Joint Venture sold an outparcel of land at Tanglewood Commons to an unrelated third party, for a gross sales price of approximately $559,000. As a result of the sale, the Joint Venture recognized a gain of approximately $13,000 and received net sale proceeds of approximately $524,000. On April 21, 2005, the Joint Venture sold the shopping center at Tanglewood Commons to an unrelated third party for a gross selling price of $11,500,000. As a result of the sale, the Joint Venture recognized a gain of approximately $5,423,000 and received net sale proceeds of approximately $11,236,000. On October 12, 2005, a portion of the remaining outparcels of land at Tanglewood Commons was condemned by the North Carolina Department of Transportation. As a result of the land condemnation, the Joint Venture recognized a gain of approximately $32,000 and received net sale proceeds of approximately $52,000. On January 31, 2007, the Joint Venture sold the two remaining outparcels of land at Tanglewood Commons to Wells Management Company, Inc. (“Wells Management”), an affiliate of the general partners of Fund VI, Fund VII, and Fund VIII for a gross sales price of $750,000. As a result of the sale, the Joint Venture received net sale proceeds of approximately $734,000 and recognized a gain of approximately $87,000.

Basis of Presentation

The Joint Venture has disposed of all of its real estate assets and does not intend to invest in additional properties. The Joint Venture wound up its affairs by, among other things, collecting the outstanding receivables, satisfying outstanding payables, and distributing all residual cash balances to the joint venture partners. The Joint Venture was terminated in October 2007 in accordance with the relevant dissolution and termination provisions of the Georgia Uniform Partnership Act.

The Joint Venture’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Effective April 1, 2007, the first day of the quarter following the completion of the sale of all real estate assets, the Joint Venture adopted the liquidation basis of accounting, under which assets and liabilities are stated at their estimated net realizable values and net settlement amounts, respectively, and statements of operations and statements of cash flows are no longer presented.

Page F-26

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Joint Venture’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Joint Venture’s leases typically included renewal options, escalation provisions, and provisions requiring tenants to reimburse the Joint Venture for a pro-rata share of operating costs incurred. All of the Joint Venture’s leases were classified as operating leases, and the related rental income, including scheduled rental rate increases (other than scheduled increases based on the Consumer Price Index) was recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases.

Lease termination income was recognized when the tenant loses the right to lease the space and the Joint Venture has satisfied all obligations under the related lease or lease termination agreement.

The Joint Venture recorded the sale of real estate assets pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate. Accordingly, gains were recognized upon completing the sale and, among other things, determining the sale price and transferring all of the risks and rewards of ownership without significant continuing involvement with the seller. Recognition of all or a portion of the gain would be deferred until both of these conditions are met. Losses were recognized in full as of the sale date.

Real Estate Assets

Real estate assets were stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Amounts capitalized to real estate assets consisted of the cost of acquisition or construction, and any tenant improvements or major improvements and betterments which extended the useful life of the related asset. The Joint Venture considered the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments had a direct impact on net income. Upon receiving notification of a tenant’s intention to terminate a lease, undepreciated tenant improvements were written off to lease termination expense. All repairs and maintenance were expensed as incurred.

The estimated useful lives of the Joint Venture’s real estate assets by class are provided below:

Buildings	40 years
Building improvements	5-25 years
Land improvements	20 years
Tenant improvements	Shorter of lease term or economic life

Management continually monitored events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets owned by the Joint Venture may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment were present, management assessed whether the respective carrying values would have been recovered with the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition for assets held for use, or with the estimated fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale. In the event that the expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use or the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale did not exceed the respective asset carrying value, management adjusted such assets to the respective estimated fair values, as defined by SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, and recognized an impairment loss. Estimated fair values were calculated based on the following information, dependent upon availability, in order of preference: (i) recently

Page F-27

quoted market prices, (ii) market prices for comparable properties, or (iii) the present value of undiscounted cash flows, including estimated salvage value.

Projections of expected future cash flows require management to estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, discount rates, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriate assumptions in the future cash flow analysis would result in an incorrect assessment of the property’s future cash flows and fair value, and could result in the overstatement of the carrying value of the Joint Venture’s real estate assets and net income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Joint Venture considered all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents included cash and short-term investments. Short-term investments were stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and consisted of investments in money market accounts.

Other Assets

Other assets as of December 31, 2006, was comprised of prepaid expenses. Prepaid expenses were recognized as the related services were provided. Balances without a future economic benefit were written off as they were identified.

Allocation of Income and Distributions

Pursuant to the terms of the joint venture agreement, income and distributions were allocated to the joint venture partners based upon their respective ownership interests as determined by relative cumulative capital contributions, as defined. Fund VI, Fund VII, and Fund VIII held ownership interests in the Joint Venture of approximately 34%, 33%, and 33%, for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net cash from operations was generally distributed to the joint venture partners on a quarterly basis.

Income Taxes

The Joint Venture is not subject to federal or state income taxes; therefore, none have been provided for in the accompanying financial statements. The partners of Fund VI, Fund VII, and Fund VIII are required to include their respective share of profits and losses from the Joint Venture in their individual income tax returns.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Joint Venture is currently assessing these provisions and evaluating the financial impact of SFAS No. 159 on its financial statements; however, it is not currently planning to adopt the fair value option in 2008.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures required for fair value measurements under GAAP, including amending SFAS No. 144. SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, as opposed to an entity-specific measurement. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position

Page F-28

No. SFAS 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13, (“FSP 157-1”). FSP 157-1, which is effective upon the initial adoption of SFAS No. 157, excludes SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, as well as other accounting pronouncements that address fair value measurements on lease classification or measurement under SFAS No. 13, from the scope of SFAS No. 157. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. SFAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP 157-2”). FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonrecurring nonfinancial assets and liabilities until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Accordingly, FSP 157-2 will be effective for the Joint Venture beginning January 1, 2009 and all other aspects of SFAS No. 157 will be effective for the Joint Venture beginning January 1, 2008. The Joint Venture is currently assessing the provisions and evaluating the financial impact of SFAS No. 157, FSP 157-1, and FSP 157-2 on its financial statements; however, does not believe the adoption of this pronouncement will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which clarifies the relevant criteria and approach for the recognition, derecognition, and measurement of uncertain tax positions. FIN No. 48 was effective for the Joint Venture beginning January 1, 2007. The adoption of this pronouncement has not had a material impact on the Joint Venture’s financial statements.

3. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Management and Leasing Fees

Fund VI, Fund VII, and Fund VIII entered into property management and leasing agreements with Wells Management, an affiliate of their general partners. In accordance with the property management and leasing agreement, Wells Management received compensation for the management and leasing of the Joint Venture’s properties, the Joint Venture generally paid Wells Management fees equal to (a) of the gross revenues collected monthly, 3% for management services and 3% for leasing services, plus a separate fee for the one-time lease-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm’s-length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties, which is assessed periodically based on market studies; or (b) in the case of commercial properties which are leased on a long-term net basis (10 or more years), 1% of the gross revenues, except for initial leasing fees equal to 3% of the gross revenues over the first five years of the lease term. During the three months ended March 31, 2007 and for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Joint Venture incurred management and leasing fees that were payable to Wells Management of $0, $19,482, and $93,721, respectively, which are included in income from discontinued operations in the accompanying statements of operations.

Administration Reimbursements

Wells Management performed certain administrative services for the Joint Venture’s properties, relating to accounting, property management, and other partnership administration, and incurred the related expenses. Such expenses were allocated among these entities based on time spent on each entity by individual personnel. In the opinion of management, this was a reasonable estimation of such expenses. During 2007, 2006, and 2005, the Joint Venture reimbursed $0, $5,700, and $25,837, respectively, to Wells Management for these services, portions of which are included in income from discontinued operations in the accompanying statements of operations.

4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Joint Venture has classified the results of operations related to the office components of the shopping center at Tanglewood Commons, which was sold on April 21, 2005, and the

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The General Partners of

Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates (the “Joint Venture”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of operations, partners’ capital, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Joint Venture’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Joint Venture’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Joint Venture’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates:

We have audited the accompanying statements of operations, partners’ capital, and cash flows of Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates (the “Joint Venture”) for the year in the period ended December 31, 2005. Our audit also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Joint Venture’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Joint Venture’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Joint Venture’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations and cash flows of Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates for the year in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2007, 2006, AND 2005

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

In June 1996, Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P. (“Fund VIII”) entered into a Georgia general partnership with Wells Real Estate Fund IX, L.P. (“Fund IX”) to form Fund VIII and Fund IX Associates (the “Joint Venture”). The general partners of Fund VIII and Fund IX are Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P., a private Georgia limited partnership.

The Joint Venture was formed to acquire, develop and operate real properties. On June 17, 1996, the Joint Venture purchased a 7.09-acre parcel of land located in Madison, Wisconsin, on which an approximate 102,000 rentable square foot, four-story office building, the US Cellular Building, was developed and constructed. On October 10, 1996, the Joint Venture purchased a 40,000 square foot, one-story office building, 14079 Senlac Drive (formerly known as the “AT&T-Texas Building”), located in Farmers Branch, Texas. On January 10, 1997, the Joint Venture purchased an approximately 65,000 square foot, two-story office building, 15253 Bake Parkway, located in Irvine, California. On February 20, 1997, the Joint Venture purchased an approximate 49,000 square foot, two-story partially completed office building, 305 Interlocken Parkway, located in Broomfield, Colorado.

On June 15, 2000, the Joint Venture entered into a joint venture with Piedmont Operating Partnership, LP (“Piedmont OP”), formerly known as Wells Operating Partnership, L.P., to form Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture. Piedmont OP is a Delaware limited partnership with Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (“Piedmont REIT”), formerly known as Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., serving as its general partner. Piedmont REIT is a Maryland corporation that qualifies as a real estate investment trust. Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture was formed to acquire, develop and operate real properties. During 2000, the Joint Venture contributed, at cost, 15253 Bake Parkway to Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture, and Piedmont OP contributed approximately $1,300,000 to fund building improvements. On December 2, 2004, Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture sold 15253 Bake Parkway to an unrelated third party for a gross sales price of $12,400,000. As a result of the sale, the Joint Venture received net sale proceeds of approximately $10,014,000 and was allocated a gain of approximately $2,301,000. During the third quarter of 2006, Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture wound up its affairs by, among other things, collecting the outstanding receivables, satisfying outstanding payables, and distributing all residual cash balances to the joint venture partners. Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture was terminated in March 2007 in accordance with the relevant dissolution and termination provisions of the Georgia Uniform Partnership Act.

On November 29, 2007, the Joint Venture sold 14079 Senlac Drive to an unrelated third party for a gross selling price of approximately $5,410,000. As a result of the sale, the Joint Venture recognized a gain of approximately $1,905,000 and received net sale proceeds of approximately $5,107,000.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The Joint Venture’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Page F-38

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Joint Venture’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Joint Venture’s leases typically include renewal options, escalation provisions and provisions requiring tenants to reimburse the Joint Venture for a pro-rata share of operating costs incurred. All of the Joint Venture’s leases are classified as operating leases, and the related rental income, including scheduled rental rate increases (other than scheduled increases based on the Consumer Price Index) is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Rents and tenant reimbursements collected in advance are recorded as deferred income in the accompanying balance sheets.

Lease termination income is recognized when the tenant loses the right to lease the space and the Joint Venture has satisfied all obligations under the related lease or lease termination agreement.

The Joint Venture records the sale of real estate assets pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate. Accordingly, gains are recognized upon completing the sale and, among other things, determining the sale price and transferring all of the risks and rewards of ownership without significant continuing involvement with the seller. Recognition of all or a portion of the gain would be deferred until both of these conditions are met. Losses are recognized in full as of the sale date.

Real Estate Assets

Real estate assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Amounts capitalized to real estate assets consist of the cost of acquisition or construction, and any tenant improvements or major improvements and betterments which extend the useful life of the related asset. The Joint Venture considers the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income. Upon receiving notification of a tenant’s intention to terminate a lease, undepreciated tenant improvements are written off to lease termination expense. All repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

The estimated useful lives of the Joint Venture’s real estate assets by class are provided below:

Buildings	40 years
Building improvements	5-25 years
Land improvements	20 years
Tenant improvements	Shorter of lease term or economic life

Management continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets owned by the Joint Venture may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present, management assesses whether the respective carrying values will be recovered with the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition for assets held for use, or with the estimated fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale. In the event that the expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use or the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale do not exceed the respective asset carrying value, management adjusts such assets to the respective estimated fair values, as defined by SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, and recognizes an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are calculated based on the following information, dependent upon availability, in order of preference: (i) recently quoted market prices, (ii) market prices for comparable properties, or (iii) the present value of undiscounted cash flows, including

Page F-39

estimated salvage value. The Joint Venture has determined that there has been no impairment in the carrying value of any of the real estate assets held as of December 31, 2007.

Projections of expected future cash flows require management to estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, discount rates, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriate assumptions in the future cash flow analysis would result in an incorrect assessment of the property’s future cash flows and fair value, and could result in the overstatement of the carrying value of the Joint Venture’s real estate assets and net income.

Investment in Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture

The Joint Venture evaluated its investment in Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture and concluded that it was not a variable interest entity under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, which supersedes FIN No. 46 and is an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements. The Joint Venture did not have control over the operations of Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture; however, it did exercise significant influence. Approval by the Joint Venture as well as the other joint venture partners was required for any major decision or any action that would materially affect Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture, or its real property investments. Accordingly, upon applying the provisions of SFAS No. 94, Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries, ARB No. 51, and Statement of Position No. 78-9, Accounting for Investments In Real Estate Ventures, the Joint Venture accounted for its investment in Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture using the equity method of accounting, whereby original investments were recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for contributions, distributions, and net income (loss) attributable to the Joint Venture. Pursuant to the terms of the joint venture agreements, all income (loss) and distributions were allocated to joint venture partners in accordance with their respective ownership interests. Distributions of net cash from operations, if available, were generally distributed to the joint venture partners on a quarterly basis.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Joint Venture considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and consist of investments in money market accounts.

Tenant Receivables

Tenant receivables are comprised of tenant receivables and straight-line rent receivables. Management assesses the collectibility of tenant receivables on an ongoing basis and provides for allowances as such balances, or portions thereof, become uncollectible. Upon receiving notification of a tenant’s intention to terminate a lease, unamortized straight-line rent receivables are written off to lease termination expense. No such allowances have been recorded as of December 31, 2007 or 2006.

Deferred Leasing Costs, net

Deferred leasing costs reflect costs incurred to procure operating leases, which are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or economic life. The remaining unamortized balance of deferred leasing costs will be amortized over a weighted-average period of approximately five years. Upon receiving notification of a tenant’s intention to terminate a lease, unamortized deferred leasing costs are written-off to lease termination expense.

Page F-40

Other Assets

Prepaid expenses and other assets as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, is comprised of the following balances:

	2007		2006
Prepaid expenses	$	6,516	$	5,580
Interest receivable		5,233		2,720
Total	$	11,749	$	8,300

Prepaid expenses are recognized as the related services are provided. Interest receivable represents interest earned during the period presented, which will be received in the following month. Balances without a future economic benefit are written off as they are identified.

Allocation of Income and Distributions

Pursuant to the terms of the joint venture agreement, income and distributions are allocated to the joint venture partners based upon their respective ownership interests as determined by relative cumulative capital contributions, as defined. Fund VIII and Fund IX held ownership interests in the Joint Venture of approximately 55% and 45%, for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net cash from operations is generally distributed to the joint venture partners on a quarterly basis.

Income Taxes

The Joint Venture is not subject to federal or state income taxes; therefore, none have been provided for in the accompanying financial statements. The partners of Fund VIII and Fund IX are required to include their respective share of profits and losses from the Joint Venture in their individual income tax returns.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Joint Venture is currently assessing these provisions and evaluating the financial impact of SFAS No. 159 on its financial statements; however, it is not currently planning to adopt the fair value option in 2008.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures required for fair value measurements under GAAP, including amending SFAS No. 144. SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, as opposed to an entity-specific measurement. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. SFAS 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13, (“FSP 157-1”). FSP 157-1, which is effective upon the initial adoption of SFAS No. 157, excludes SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, as well as other accounting pronouncements that address fair value measurements on lease classification or measurement under SFAS No. 13, from the scope of SFAS No. 157. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. SFAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP 157-2”). FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonrecurring nonfinancial assets and liabilities until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Accordingly, FSP 157-2 will be effective for the Joint Venture beginning January 1, 2009 and all other aspects of SFAS No. 157 will be effective

Page F-41

for the Joint Venture beginning January 1, 2008. The Joint Venture is currently assessing the provisions and evaluating the financial impact of SFAS No. 157, FSP 157-1, and FSP 157-2 on its financial statements; however, does not believe the adoption of this pronouncement will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which clarifies the relevant criteria and approach for the recognition, derecognition, and measurement of uncertain tax positions. FIN No. 48 was effective for the Joint Venture beginning January 1, 2007. The adoption of this pronouncement has not had a material impact on the Joint Venture’s financial statements.

3. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Management and Leasing Fees

Fund VIII and Fund IX entered into property management and leasing agreements with Wells Management Company, Inc. (“Wells Management”), an affiliate of their general partners. In accordance with the property management and leasing agreement, Wells Management receives compensation for the management and leasing of the Joint Venture’s properties, the Joint Venture will generally pay Wells Management fees equal to (a) of the gross revenues collected monthly, 3% for management services and 3% for leasing services, plus a separate fee for the one-time lease-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm’s-length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties, which is assessed periodically based on market studies; or (b) in the case of commercial properties which are leased on a long-term net basis (10 or more years), 1% of the gross revenues, except for initial leasing fees equal to 3% of the gross revenues over the first five years of the lease term. During the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, the Joint Venture incurred management and leasing fees that are payable to Wells Management of $120,794, $134,036, and $128,649, respectively, portions of which are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations in the accompanying statements of operations.

Administrative Reimbursements

Wells Management performs certain administrative services for the Joint Venture, relating to accounting, property management, and other partnership administration, and incurs the related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among these entities based on time spent on each entity by individual personnel. In the opinion of management, this is a reasonable estimation of such expenses. During 2007, 2006, and 2005, the Joint Venture incurred administration expenses of $46,247, $59,521, and $72,443, respectively, payable to Wells Management for these services, portions of which are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations in the accompanying statements of operations.

Due to Affiliate

As of December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, due to affiliate balances reflect amounts due to Wells Management for the following items:

	2007		2006
Property management fees	$	10,134	$	2,522
Administrative reimbursements		1,887		469
	$	12,021	$	2,991

4. INVESTMENT IN FUND VIII-IX-REIT JOINT VENTURE

As of December 31, 2006, the Joint Venture owned an interest of approximately 84% in Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture. In 2006, Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture wound up its affairs by, among other things, collecting

Page F-42

the outstanding receivables, satisfying outstanding payables, and distributing all residual cash balances to the joint venture partners. Fund VIII-IX-REIT Joint Venture was terminated in 2007 in accordance with the relevant dissolution and termination provisions of the Georgia Uniform Partnership Act.
