Nooney Income Fund Ltd. II, L.P. Nooney Real Property Investors - Two, L.P. CGS Real Estate Company, Inc. 1800 East Deere Avenue Santa Ana, CA 92705
Gentlemen:
You have engaged Robert A. Stanger & Co., Inc. ("Stanger") to estimate the value of the real property portfolios (the "Portfolios") owned by Sierra Pacific Development Fund, Sierra Pacific Development Fund II, Sierra Pacific Development Fund III, Sierra Pacific Institutional Properties V, Sierra Pacific Pension Investors '84, Nooney Income Fund Ltd., L.P., Nooney Income Fund Ltd. II, L.P., Nooney Real Property Investors - Two, L.P. (hereinafter the "Funds"), and a portfolio of sixteen properties (the "Affiliates' Properties") owned by CGS Real Estate Company, Inc. ("CGS") and entities affiliated with CGS (collectively, the "Affiliated Entities"). Such appraisal reflects the estimated market value of the leased fee interests or, where appropriate, fee simple interests in each of the portfolios of real property owned by the Funds and the Affiliated Entities as of December 31, 2000 (the "Portfolio Valuations").
This report is prepared in accordance with an agreement between Robert A. Stanger & Co., Inc. and the Funds and CGS dated March 5, 2001. Pursuant to the agreement, Stanger has been engaged to perform the appraisal on a limited scope basis using a summary report format in conformity with the departure provisions of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice of the Appraisal Institute, relying solely upon the Income Approach to value (with the exception of one land parcel which was valued utilizing the sales comparison approach as described herein). As such, the report differs from a self-contained appraisal report in that (i) the data is limited to the summary data and conclusions presented, and (ii) the cost and market approaches were excluded and the conclusions were based upon the income approach. This summary appraisal report is not designed to meet the requirements of Title XI of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA").
Our valuation has been based in part upon information supplied to us by CGS, the Funds and the Affiliated Entities including but not limited to: rent rolls; lease abstracts; schedules of current lease rates, income, expenses, capital expenditures, cash flow and related financial information; property descriptive information; physical condition of improvements, including any deferred maintenance, status of ongoing or newly planned property additions, reconfigurations, improvements and other factors affecting the condition of the property improvements; recent prior appraisals; information relating to mortgage encumbrances; and, where appropriate, property bids or proposed sales terms, sales agreements and supporting documentation. We have also visited the offices of CGS and the Funds in New York, N.Y. and have interviewed relevant management personnel. We have relied upon such information and have assumed that the information provided by CGS, the Funds and the Affiliated Entities is accurate and complete. We have not attempted to independently verify such information.
-1- {PAGE} 4
We are advised by CGS, the Funds and the Affiliated Entities that the purpose of the appraisal is to estimate the value of the leased fee interests or, where appropriate, the fee simple interests in the Portfolios under market conditions as of the appraisal date and that the Portfolio Valuations will be used in connection with a proposed consolidation of CGS, the Funds and the Affiliated Entities in exchange for shares of American Spectrum Realty, Inc., a newly organized Maryland corporation (the "Company") and assumption of existing indebtedness (the "Consolidation"). Stanger understands that the Portfolio Valuations may be reviewed and utilized in connection with the Consolidation, and Stanger agrees to the use of the Portfolio Valuations for this purpose subject to the terms and conditions of the agreements related thereto.
For these purposes, this summary appraisal report was prepared stating our opinion as to the market value of the Portfolios as of December 31, 2000. This report may be summarized and referenced in the consent solicitation/proxy statement for the Funds relating to the Consolidation, subject to prior review by Stanger. However, the attached summary appraisal report should be reviewed in its entirety and is subject to the assumptions and limiting conditions contained herein. Background information and analysis upon which value conclusions are based has been retained in our files.
Our review was undertaken solely for the purpose of providing an opinion of value, and we make no representation as to the adequacy of such review for any other purpose. Our opinion is expressed with respect to the total value of each of the real estate portfolios in which the Funds and the Affiliated Entities have an interest and not with respect to joint venture participations or limited partners' allocations. Stanger has no present or contemplated future interest in the properties, the Funds, the Affiliated Entities, CGS or the proposed Company.
The appraisal is only an estimate of the aggregate market value of the leased fee interests or, where appropriate, fee simple interests in each of the Portfolios as of the date of valuation and should not be relied upon as being the equivalent of the price that would necessarily be received in the event of a sale or other disposition of the properties in the Portfolios. Changes in corporate financing rates generally, changes in individual tenant creditworthiness, changes in tenant motivation with respect to the exercise of renewal or purchase options, or changes in real estate property markets may result in higher or lower values of real property. The use of other valuation methodologies might produce a higher or lower value.
Our opinion is subject to the assumptions and limiting conditions set forth herein. We have used methods and assumptions deemed appropriate in our professional judgment; however, future events may demonstrate that the assumptions were incorrect or that other, different methods or assumptions may

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
[PHOTO OF DIANNE ORBISON]
Dear Shareholders:
It's been a very eventful year in the economy and the markets. We've seen a
major rally in the bond market, and a major sell off in stocks. Negative events,
questionable earnings reports, and unscrupulous corporate leadership is a lot of
weight for the stock market to carry. Investors are still not confident that the
market can bear the load, which contributed to the stock sell off during the
first half of the year.
A flight to quality is still underway, and this is not unusual when political,
social, and economic events hold uncertainty. In the period ended July 31, 2002,
strong fixed income performance (Lehman Aggregate Bond Index* at 7.84%) and very
weak equity performance (S&P 500 Index** at -23.63) was recorded. The difference
in returns between stocks and bonds, as measured by these two benchmark indices,
was near record levels.
We believe the capital markets will continue to be volatile and suggest that
investors adjust their expectations for a time-specific market recovery. Current
market conditions didn't happen overnight, and it has taken longer than expected
for a sustainable recovery to surface. Although most segments of the stock
market were down at the end of our reporting period, we believe valuations are
fair and better than they have been in six months.
The economy is growing, albeit slowly. We expect that U.S. growth, as measured
by GDP, will be a respectable 2.5 percent in 2002. Monetary policy is still
easy, and we expect no changes from the Federal Reserve in the near term.
Inflation is running less than two percent annually with little, if any,
increase expected.
Also, the underlying strength of the U.S. economy remains solid. The weakness of
the dollar, however, may benefit investors considering a greater allocation to
international investments. Consider having a periodic conversation with your
financial advisor about your goals, risk tolerance, and allocation strategy.
You will notice that all Advantus equity funds are included in this report. The
remaining Advantus Funds (fixed income and balanced) will be published in an
annual report to be dated September 30, 2002. We have combined the reports for
the funds into two mailings to achieve economies of scale in report preparation
and mailing. We are also moving forward with plans to combine Advantus Funds
prospectuses in the same way and for the same reasons.
This is my first letter to you as President of the Advantus Funds. Bill
Westhoff, former President and investment management veteran, retired in late
July, 2002 after 31 years of service to shareholders. I look forward to
communicating with
1
you on a regular basis and bringing you news of the economy, markets,
and Advantus.
Sincerely,
/s/ Dianne Orbison
Dianne Orbison
President, Advantus Funds
