CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q 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-Q, 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 distributions to partners, and maintain the value of our real estate properties, may be significantly hindered. See Item 1A. in the Partnerships Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 for a discussion
of 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.

|-- | ------------------------------------------

Basis of Presentation

The financial
statements of the Partnership have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of

##### Table of Contents

Regulation S-X, and in accordance with such rules and regulations, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the General Partners, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature and necessary to fairly and consistently present
the results for these periods. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full-year results. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in the Partnerships Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Investment in Joint Venture

The Partnership has evaluated the Joint Venture and concluded that it is not a variable interest entity. The Partnership does not have control over the
operations of the Joint Venture; 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
Venture, or its real property investments. Accordingly, the Partnership accounts for its investment in the Joint Venture 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 agreement, 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.

Evaluating the Recoverability of Real Estate Assets

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 Venture may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present which suggest 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 respective carrying values will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their 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 the real estate assets to their respective estimated fair values, pursuant to the provisions of the property, plant, and equipment accounting standard for the
impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, and recognizes an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are determined based on the following information, dependent upon availability: (i) recently quoted market price(s) for the subject
property, or highly comparable properties, under sufficiently active and normal market conditions, or (ii) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated residual value.

While various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate fair value depending on the nature of the asset or liability, the accounting standard
for fair value measurements and disclosures describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Partnership has
the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities
in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are
unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entitys own assumptions, as little, if any, related market activity or information is available. Examples of Level 3 inputs include estimated holding periods,
discount rates, market capitalization rates, expected lease rental rates, timing of new leases, and sales prices; additionally, the Partnership may assign an estimated probability-weighting to more than one fair value estimate based on the
Partnerships assessment of the likelihood of the respective underlying assumptions occurring as of the evaluation date. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from



Page 10

##### Table of Contents

different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to
the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Partnerships assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The
accounting standard for fair value measurements and disclosures was applied to the Partnerships outstanding nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities effective January 1, 2009.

Distributions of Net Cash from Operations

Net cash from operations, if available and unless reserved, 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.

Distribution of Net Sale Proceeds

Upon sales of properties, unless reserved, net sale proceeds will be 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, cost recovery and the gain on the sale of assets. Net income, as defined, of the Partnership will be 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, such excess net income 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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In
January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) clarified previously issued GAAP and issued new requirements related to Accounting Standards Codification Topic Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASU
2010-6). The clarification component includes disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques used in determining fair value, and providing fair value measurement information for each class of assets and liabilities. The new requirements
relate to disclosures of transfers between the levels in the fair value hierarchy, as well as the individual components in the rollforward of the lowest level (Level 3) in the fair value hierarchy. This change in GAAP became effective for the
Partnership beginning January 1, 2010, except for the provision concerning the rollforward of activity of the Level 3 fair value measurement, which will become effective for the Partnership on January 1, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2010-6
did not have a material impact on the Partnerships financial statements or disclosures.

|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 Venture, 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 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 Venture and, accordingly, are included in equity in income of joint venture in the accompanying statements of operations. The Partnerships share of management and leasing fees and lease acquisition costs incurred through the Joint
Venture and payable to Wells Management is $15,926 and $20,818 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $32,990 and $39,619 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, 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 $26,367 and $23,375 payable to Wells Capital and Wells Management for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and
2009, respectively, and $55,076 and $51,071 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. In addition, Wells Capital and Wells Management pay for certain operating expenses of the Partnership (bill-backs) directly
and invoice the Partnership for the reimbursement thereof on a quarterly basis. As presented in the accompanying balance sheets, due to affiliates as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 represents administrative reimbursements and
bill-backs due to Wells Capital and/or Wells Management.

Economic Dependency

The Partnership has engaged Wells Capital and Wells Management to provide certain essential services, including supervision of the management and leasing
of its 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, the Partnership is dependent upon Wells Capital and Wells Management.

Wells
Capital and Wells Management are both owned and controlled by WREF. The operations of Wells Capital and Wells Management represent substantially all of the business of WREF. Accordingly, the Partnership focuses 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, the Partnership 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
distribution income earned from its holdings of common stock of Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (Piedmont REIT), which was acquired in



Page 13

##### Table of Contents

connection with the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction (see Assertion of Legal Action Against Related-Parties below). As of June 30, 2010, the Partnership has no reason to
believe that WREF does not have access to adequate liquidity and capital resources, including cash flow from operations, cash on hand and other investments, necessary to meet its current and future obligations as they become due.

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

Assertion of Legal Action Against Related-Parties

On March 12, 2007, a stockholder of Piedmont REIT filed a putative class action and derivative complaint, presently styled In re Wells Real Estate
Investment Trust, Inc. Securities Litigation, in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland against, among others, Piedmont REIT; Leo F. Wells, III, one of the Partnerships General Partners; Wells Capital, the
corporate general partner of Wells Partners, the Partnerships other General Partner; Wells Management, the Partnerships 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 alleged, 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 SEC on February 26, 2007, as
amended. The complaint sought, among other things, unspecified monetary damages and nullification of the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction.

On June 27, 2007, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which attempted 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 March 31, 2008, the Court granted in part the defendants motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The Court dismissed five of the seven
counts of the amended complaint in their entirety. The Court dismissed the remaining two counts with the exception of allegations regarding the failure to disclose in the Piedmont REIT proxy statement details of certain expressions of interest in
acquiring Piedmont REIT. On April 21, 2008, the plaintiff filed a second amended complaint, which alleges violations of the federal proxy rules based upon allegations that the proxy statement to obtain approval for the Piedmont REIT
internalization transaction omitted details of certain expressions of interest in acquiring Piedmont REIT. The second amended complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, to nullify and rescind the internalization
transaction, and to cancel and rescind any stock issued to the defendants as consideration for the internalization transaction. On May 12, 2008, the defendants answered and raised certain defenses to the second amended complaint.

On June 23, 2008, the plaintiff filed a motion for class certification. On September 16, 2009, the Court granted the
plaintiffs motion for class certification. On September 20, 2009, the defendants filed a petition for permission to appeal immediately the Courts order granting the motion for class certification with the Eleventh Circuit Court of
Appeals. The petition for permission to appeal was denied on October 30, 2009. On April 13, 2009, the plaintiff moved for leave to amend the second amended complaint to add additional defendants. The court denied the plaintiffs
motion for leave to amend on June 23, 2009.

On December 4, 2009, the parties filed motions for summary judgment. On August 2,
2010, the Court entered an order denying the defendants motion for summary judgment and granting, in part, the plaintiffs motion for partial summary judgment. The Court ruled that the question of whether certain expressions of interest
in



Page 14

##### Table of Contents

acquiring Piedmont REIT constituted material information required to be disclosed in the proxy statement to obtain approval for the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction raises
questions of fact that must be determined at trial. A trial date has not been set.

Mr. Wells, Wells Capital, and Wells Management
believe that the allegations contained in the complaint are without merit and 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 the Partnerships operations and portfolio of investments.



|5. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
|-- | -----------------------------

From time
to time, the Partnership and its General Partners are parties to legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of our business. The Partnership is 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 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto. See also
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements preceding Part I, as well as the notes to our financial statements and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations provided in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Overview

Management believes that the Partnership typically operates through the following five key life cycle phases. 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



| |  |  | 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.

##### Table of Contents

Portfolio Overview

We are currently in the positioning-for-sale phase of our life cycle. We have sold six of the eight properties in which we have held interests. Our focus
at this time involves leasing and marketing efforts that we believe will ultimately result in the best disposition pricing of our assets for our limited partners.

Operating distributions payable to the limited partners holding Class A Units for the second quarter of 2010 remained consistent with the level paid
in the prior quarter. We anticipate that operating distributions to limited partners may remain low or be reserved in the near-term as a result of our intention to fund our pro rata share of anticipated re-leasing costs for our remaining properties.

Property Summary

As we move
further into the positioning-for-sale phase, we will continue to focus on re-leasing vacant space and space that may become vacant upon the expiration of our current leases. In doing so, we will seek to maximize returns to our limited partners by
attempting to negotiate long-term leases at market rental rates while attempting to minimize down time, re-leasing expenditures, ongoing property level costs, and portfolio costs. As properties are positioned for sale, our attention will shift to
locating suitable buyers, negotiating purchase-sale contracts that will attempt to maximize the total return to our limited partners, and minimize contingencies and potential post-closing obligations to buyers. As of July 31, 2010, the
Partnership owned interests in two properties.

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.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our operating strategy entails
funding expenditures related to the recurring operations of the Joint Ventures properties and the portfolio with operating cash flows, including current and prior period operating distributions received from the Joint Venture, 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 Class A 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 one or more 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 could be adversely affected.

Short-Term Liquidity

During the six
months ended June 30, 2010, we generated net operating cash flows, including distributions received from the Joint Venture, of approximately $187,000. Operating distributions from the Joint Venture generally consist of rental revenues and
tenant reimbursements, less property operating expenses, management fees, general administrative expenses, and capital expenditures. We used such net operating cash flows to fund operating distributions to Class A limited partners of
approximately $163,000. The extent to which any future operating distributions are paid to limited partners will be largely dependent upon the amount of cash generated from the Joint Venture, our expectations of future cash flows, and determination
of near-term cash needs to fund our share of tenant re-leasing costs and other capital improvements for properties owned by the Joint Venture. We anticipate future operating distributions from the Joint Venture may decline in the near-term as a
result of our intention to fund our pro rata share of anticipated re-leasing costs for our remaining properties.

We believe that the cash on
hand and operating distributions due from the Joint Venture are sufficient to cover our working capital needs, including those provided for within our total liabilities of approximately $99,000, as of June 30, 2010.

Long-Term Liquidity

We expect that our
future sources of capital will be primarily derived from operating cash flows generated from the Joint Venture and net proceeds generated from the sale of properties. Our future long-term liquidity requirements will include, but not be limited to,
funding our share of tenant improvements, renovations, expansions, and other significant capital improvements necessary for properties owned through the Joint Venture. We expect to continue to use substantially all future net cash flows from
operations, including distributions received from the Joint Venture, 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. Future cash flows from operating activities will be primarily affected by distributions received from the Joint Venture, which are dependent upon the net operating income generated by the Joint Ventures properties, less
reserves for known or anticipated capital expenditures.

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 preleased to creditworthy tenants through joint ventures with affiliated partnerships.

The Joint Venture incurs capital expenditures primarily related to building improvements for the purpose of maintaining the quality of our properties,
and tenant improvements for the purpose of readying our properties for re-leasing. As leases expire, we will work with the Joint Venture 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 funded from the operations of the Joint Venture will be required to be funded by the Partnership and the other respective joint venture partners on a pro rata basis.

##### Table of Contents

Operating cash flows, if available, are generally distributed from the Joint Venture to the Partnership
approximately one month following calendar quarter-ends. However, the Joint Venture will reserve operating distributions, or a portion thereof, as needed in order to fund known capital and other expenditures. 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 sale proceeds reserves would then be utilized.

As of June 30, 2010, we have received, used,
distributed, and held net sale proceeds allocated to the Partnership from the sale of properties as presented below:

Upon evaluating the capital needs of the properties in which we currently own an interest, our General Partners have
determined to reserve net sale proceeds of approximately $0.5 million to fund our pro rata share of anticipated re-leasing costs for our remaining properties.

Results of Operations

Equity in
Income of Joint Venture

Equity in income of Joint Venture remained relatively stable at $47,390 and $50,424 for the three months ended
June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.



Page 18



---

##### Table of Contents

Equity in income of Joint Venture increased from $94,412 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 to
$105,153 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase is primarily attributable to a reduction in maintenance expenses incurred at the US Cellular Building in 2010.

Absent leasing activity at the US Cellular Building, we expect equity in income of Joint Venture to remain at similar levels in the near term.

Interest and Other Income

Interest and other income decreased from $437 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $302 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, and
from $1,426 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $602 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decreases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are primarily a result of a decrease in the average daily yield.

Future levels of interest income will be largely dependent on the timing of future property dispositions and net sales proceeds distributions
to the limited partners, and fluctuations in the average daily yield.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased from $43,631 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $48,537 for the three months ended
June 30, 2010, and from $100,078 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $111,583 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are primarily attributable to (i) a
temporary difference in accounting fees related to the timing of work performed by our external accountants during the year, partially offset by (ii) a decrease in legal services in 2010.

We anticipate that future general and administrative expenses will vary primarily based on future changes in our reporting and regulatory requirements.

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 are intended to help 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

Summary

Our accounting policies have
been established to conform with 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.

##### Table of Contents

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

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 assets to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income. The
estimated useful lives of the Joint Ventures assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:



|                      |  |                                       
|--------------------- |  | --------------------------------------
|                      | 
|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 Venture utilizes inappropriate useful lives or methods of depreciation, our net income would be misstated.

Evaluating the
Recoverability 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 investment in the Joint Venture may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present which suggest that the carrying amounts of real estate
assets may not be recoverable, we assess the recoverability of the real estate assets by determining whether the respective carrying values will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the
assets and their 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 such expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use, or the estimated
fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale, do not exceed the respective assets carrying values, we adjust the real estate assets to their respective estimated fair values, pursuant to the provisions of the property, plant, and
equipment accounting standard for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, and recognize an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are determined based on the following information, dependent upon availability: (i) recently quoted
market price(s) for the subject property, or highly comparable properties, under sufficiently active and normal market conditions, or (ii) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated residual value. We have determined that
there has been no impairment in the carrying value of any of our real estate assets held as of June 30, 2010.

Projections of expected
future cash flows require that we estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the
property is held for investment, among other factors. The subjectivity of assumptions used in the future cash flow analysis, including discount rates, could result in an incorrect assessment of the propertys future cash flows and fair value,
and could result in the misstatement of the carrying value of real estate assets held by the Joint Venture and net income of the Partnership.

Related-Party Transactions

We have
entered into agreements with Wells Capital and Wells Management, affiliates of our General Partners, and their affiliates, whereby we pay certain fees and expense reimbursements to Wells Capital, Wells Management, and 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 Note 4 to our financial statements included
in this report for a description of these fees and expense reimbursements we have incurred.

|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

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 currency exchange rate fluctuations, or the other market risks contemplated by Item 305 of Regulation S-K.



|ITEM 4T. | 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 Wells Partners, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer of Wells Capital, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of the Partnerships disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) as of the end of the quarterly period covered
by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer of Wells Capital concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this
quarterly report in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act 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 information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the
Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer of Wells Capital, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
