Item 2. Acquisition of Assets The IKON Buildings Purchase of the IKON Buildings. On September 7, 2001, Wells Operating ------------------------------ Partnership, L.P. (Wells OP), a Delaware limited partnership formed to acquire, own, lease and operate real properties on behalf of Wells Real Estate Investment, Inc. (Wells REIT), purchased two one-story office buildings with approximately 157,790 rentable square feet located at 810 & 820 Gears Road, Harris County, Houston, Texas (IKON Buildings). Wells OP purchased these buildings from SV Reserve, L.P. pursuant to that certain Agreement for the Purchase and Sale of Property between SV Reserve, L.P. and Wells OP. SV Reserve, L.P. is not in any way affiliated with Wells REIT or Wells Capital, Inc., our Advisor. The purchase price for the IKON Buildings was $20,650,000. Wells OP incurred acquisition expenses in connection with the purchase of the IKON Buildings, including commissions, attorneys' fees, recording fees, structural report and environmental report fees, and other closing costs, of approximately $132,525. An independent appraisal of the IKON Buildings was prepared by Gary Brown & Associates, Inc., real estate appraisers, as of August 30, 2001, pursuant to which the market value of the real property containing the leased fee interest subject to the leases described below was estimated to be $20,750,000, in cash or terms equivalent to cash. This value estimate was based upon a number of assumptions, including that the IKON Buildings will continue operating at a stabilized level with IKON Office Solutions, Inc, a Ohio corporation (IKON), occupying 100% of the rentable area, and is not necessarily an accurate reflection of the fair market value of the property or the net proceeds which would result from an immediate sale of this property. Wells OP also obtained an environmental report and an engineering inspection report prior to the closing evidencing that the condition of the land and the IKON Buildings were satisfactory. Description of the IKON Buildings and Site. The IKON Buildings, which were ------------------------------------------ completed in September 2000, are two one-story office buildings containing approximately 157,790 rentable square feet (78,895 square feet for each building) located on a 15.69 acre tract of land. The buildings are constructed using a steel frame with steel trusses and a reinforced concrete foundation. The exterior walls are made of primarily concrete masonry with concrete tilt wall panels with slightly recessed reflective blue-tinted windows. The interior walls consist of floated and painted gypsum board. In addition, the lighted parking lot contains approximately 785 parking spaces. The IKON Buildings are located at 810 & 820 Gears Road in Houston, Texas, in the northern portion of Harris County approximately 12-16 miles north of Houston's central business district in the Greens Crossing development. The property is near North Freeway, which runs in a north-south direction and extends to Dallas, and North Sam Houston Parkway. In addition, the IKON Buildings are located approximately five miles from the Houston Intercontinental Airport. North Harris County contains headquarters for several U.S. and international companies and offices for several other multinational companies, including Federal Express, Continental Airlines and Paine Webber. The IKON Lease. The entire 157,790 rentable square feet of the IKON Buildings is -------------- currently under a lease agreement with IKON. The landlord's interest in the IKON lease was assigned to Wells OP at the closing. The current term of the lease is 10 years, which commenced on May 1, 2000, and expires on April 30, 2010. IKON has the right to extend the term of this lease for two additional five-year periods at the then-current fair market rental rate, upon 12 months prior written notice. IKON is an Ohio corporation with its world headquarters located in Malvern, Pennsylvania. IKON provides business communication products such as copiers and printers, as well as services such as 2

distributed printing, facilities management, network design, e-business development, and technology training. IKON's customers include various sized businesses, professional firms, and government agencies. IKON distributes products manufactured by companies such as Microsoft, IBM, Canon, Novell, and Hewlett-Packard. With approximately 39,000 employees and approximately 900 locations worldwide, IKON has a total of over $6.3 billion in assets. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000, IKON reported a net income of approximately $29 million with revenues of approximately $5.4 billion and a net worth of approximately $1.44 billion. The base rent payable for the remainder of the IKON lease is as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------- Lease Year Annual Rent Monthly Rent ------------------------------------------------------------- 2-5 $2,015,767 $167,981 ------------------------------------------------------------- 6-10 $2,228,784 $185,732 ------------------------------------------------------------- Pursuant to the IKON lease, IKON is required to pay all taxes relating to the IKON Buildings and all operating costs incurred by the landlord in maintaining and operating the IKON Buildings, including, but not limited to, garbage and waste disposal, janitorial service and window cleaning, security, insurance, water and sewer charges, wages, salaries and employee benefits of all employees engaged in the operation, maintenance and management of the building, indoor and outdoor landscaping, utilities, repairs, replacements and general maintenance. Wells OP, as the landlord, will be responsible, for repairs related to insurable casualty and for maintaining the roof, foundation, exterior walls and windows, load bearing items and the electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems of the building, except for the HVAC system. IKON, as the tenant, is responsible for maintaining, repairing, and replacing the HVAC system. All tenant improvements or alterations costing in excess of $50,000 must receive prior written approval from Wells OP. Property Management Fees Wells Management Company, Inc. (Wells Management), an affiliate of Wells REIT and our Advisor, has been retained to manage and lease the IKON Building. Wells REIT shall pay management and leasing fees to Wells Management in the amount of 4.5% of gross revenues from the IKON Building, subject to certain limitations. 3

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc.: We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues over certain operating expenses for the IKON PROPERTY for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and the year ended December 31, 2000. This financial statement is the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of revenues over certain operating expenses is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenues over certain operating expenses. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. As described in Note 2, this financial statement excludes certain expenses that would not be comparable with those resulting from the operations of the IKON Buildings after acquisition by the Wells Operating Partnership, L.P., a subsidiary of Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. The accompanying statement of revenues over certain operating expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the IKON Buildings' revenues and expenses. In our opinion, the statement of revenues over certain operating expenses presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues over certain operating expenses of the IKON Buildings for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and the year ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. /s/ Arthur Andersen LLP Atlanta, Georgia September 12, 2001 F-1
