Business Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account (the "Real Property Account"), the Registrant, was established on October 30, 1987 by Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey ("Pruco Life of New Jersey"), as a separate investment account, pursuant to New Jersey law. The Real Property Account was established to provide a real estate investment option offered in connection with the funding of benefits under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts (the "Contracts") issued by Pruco Life of New Jersey. The assets of the Real Property Account are invested in The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the "Partnership"). The Partnership, a general partnership organized under New Jersey law on April 29, 1988, was formed through agreement among The Prudential Insurance Company of America, Pruco Life Insurance Company, and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey, to provide a means for assets allocated to the real estate investment option under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by the respective companies to be invested in a commingled pool. The Partnership has an investment policy of investing at least 65% of its assets in direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage loans. The largest portion of these real estate investments are direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate, such as office buildings, shopping centers, hotels, apartments, or industrial properties. Approximately 10% of the Partnership's assets are generally held in cash or invested in liquid instruments and securities although the Partners reserve discretion to increase this amount to meet partnership liquidity requirements. The remainder of the Partnership's assets are invested in other types of real estate-related investments, including real estate investment trusts. Office Properties - The Partnership owns office properties in Lisle and Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois; Brentwood, Tennessee; and Beaverton, Oregon. Total square footage owned is approximately 481,000 of which 77% or 373,000 square feet are leased between 1 and 10 years. The Partnership's Morristown, New Jersey property, which had approximately 85,000 square feet, was sold on October 26, 2000. Apartment Complexes - The Partnership owns apartment complexes in Atlanta, Georgia and Raleigh, North Carolina. There are a total of 490 apartment units available of which 95% or 465 units are leased. Lease terms range from monthly to one year. In addition, on September 17, 1999, the Partnership invested in an apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL. This joint venture investment has a total of 458 units available of which 416 units or 91% are occupied. Lease terms range from monthly to one year. Retail Property - The Partnership owns a shopping center in Roswell, Georgia. The property is located approximately 22 miles north of downtown Atlanta on a 30 acre site. The square footage is approximately 316,000 of which 96% or 304,000 square feet is leased between 1 and 10 years. On September 30, 1999 the Partnership invested in a retail portfolio located in the Kansas City, MO and KS areas. This joint venture investment has approximately 488,000 of net rentable square feet of which 91% or 444,000 square feet is leased between 1 and 20 years. Industrial Properties - The Partnership owns warehouses and distribution centers in Bolingbrook, Illinois; Aurora, Colorado; and Salt Lake City, Utah. Total square footage owned is approximately 685,000 of which 72% or 491,000 square feet are leased between 2 and 10 years. 3 Investment in Real Estate Trust - The Partnership owned 386,208 shares of ProLogis REIT. ProLogis is a self administered and self-managed equity real estate investment trust engaged in owning, operating, marketing and leasing high quality, industrial distribution facilities throughout North America and Europe, and developing master-planned distribution parks and corporate distribution facilities. The Partnership liquidated its entire investment in ProLogis REIT shares during June 2000. The Partnership also owns investments in various other REIT stocks. The Partnership made an additional investment of $8,000,000 in various other REIT stocks in November 2000. The Partnership's investments are maintained so as to meet the diversification requirements set forth in Treasury Regulations issued pursuant to Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the investments of variable life insurance and variable annuity separate accounts. Section 817(h), requires among other things that the partnership will have no more than 55% of the assets invested in any one investment, no more than 70% of the assets will be invested in any two investments, no more than 80% of the assets will be invested in any three investments, and no more than 90% of the assets will be invested in any four investments. To comply with requirements of the State of Arizona, the Partnership will limit additional investments in any one parcel or related parcels to an amount not exceeding 10% of the Partnership's gross assets as of the prior fiscal year. Real Estate Market Real estate market fundamentals improved in 2000. Much of this improvement came in the first half of 2000, while the economy was growing at an unsustainable 5% growth rate. Demand remains strong and new supply has been kept in check. The uncertainty regarding the broader economy, however, has adversely affected liquidity in the real estate investment market. Investors are positioning their portfolios to weather any near-term volatility by shifting allocations to investments with strong income returns and expected stable near-term cash flows. However, we should all remember that any slowdown in activity is starting from a point where occupancy for most property types is at historically high levels. Debt Markets Much of the stability that has characterized the real estate markets over the past two years can be traced to the dynamics of the debt markets. The debt markets play a central role in determining the outlook for real estate values because the debt markets remain the industry's principal source of capital. Real estate debt market fundamentals improved during 2000 despite a moderate increase in interest rates during the first half of the year. Loan to value ratios declined, debt coverage ratios moved up in the third quarter, and commercial mortgage delinquencies remained negligible. Property Markets One of the more positive developments in 2000 was the improvement in the property market fundamentals, at least at the national level. At the start of 2000, this seemed an improbable scenario, largely because conditions at this time last year were already healthier than we could remember for some time. But market fundamentals did improve in all sectors--except for retail, where vacancy rose slightly due to continued oversupply. In fact, demand was so strong in select markets, most notably in the cult markets of Boston, New York, San Francisco and Washington, that rents and values spiked to new highs. Conditions softened somewhat in the second half of the year, but overall still remain robust as 2001 begins. Fundamentals remained stable in the office sector. At the national level, downtown office vacancy rates declined from 8.1% at the beginning of the year to 6.7% as of the third quarter. Nevertheless, there are still many secondary markets with high downtown vacancy rates, and there are signs of loosening among even the most robust markets--in particular, among several of the "cult" markets where marginal demand has been driven largely by tech firms. This loosening is a sign of a return to more sustainable vacancy levels, and does not seem to us a sign of a pending crash. 4 One of the biggest stories in the office market in 2000 was the recovery of the suburban sector, where a sharp decline in new construction and strong tenant demand helped drive the national suburban office market vacancy rate to its lowest level in over a decade. By the end of the third quarter, suburban office vacancy stood at just under 9%, down from 10.4% at year end in 1999. However, investors remain rightfully cautious about the sector, putting a ceiling on what they will pay relative to replacement cost even though this results in first year cap rates that are in the high 9% range, and often over 10%. This phenomenon has resulted in a widening of the bid-ask spread for suburban office. The favorite property types among institutional investors continue to be the less cyclical sectors. The short lead-time on warehouse development allows the sector to respond relatively quickly to changing market conditions. Torto Wheaton Research (TWR) estimates that the overall availability rate for industrial space as of third quarter 2000 was 6.6%, down from 7.2% one year prior. The firm projects that industrial availability will begin to climb back to 7.2% by the end of 2001, and then remain relatively stable in the near-term. The apartment sector remains the favorite of institutional investors. Market fundamentals have improved over the last year, and the longer-term demographic trends bode well for demand. Pricing of these investments, however, has risen. Development, which allows for investment at a price closer to cost, appears to be the optimal way to participate in apartment investments. Among institutional investors' least favored sectors are hotels and retail. Both property types are notoriously sensitive to economic downturns, which does not bode well heading into uncertain economic times. Looking ahead, retail will remain a challenging property type in which to avoid mistakes. Stress in the economy affects retail real estate when it leads to a shake out in the retail industry. Sears recently announced the closures of some eighty plus stores. Recent failures of such national names as Bradlees and Montgomery Ward suggests that retail may be about to experience one of its periodic waves of restructuring. That these announcements come just as consumer spending seems to be slowing, rather than into a slowdown or recession, underscores how competitive the retailing environment is in the United States.

Item 2. Properties Not Applicable. Item 3. Legal Proceedings None. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Securities Holders Contract owners participating in the Real Property Account have no voting rights with respect to the Real Property Account. 5 PART II Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Interests and Related Security Holder Matters Owners of the Contracts may participate by allocating all or part of the net premiums or purchase payments to the Real Property Account. Contract values will vary with the performance of the Real Property Account's investments through the Partnership. Participating interests in the Real Property Account are not traded in any public market, thus a discussion of market information is not relevant. As of December 31, 2000, there were approximately 3,022 contract owners of record investing in the Real Property Account. Item 6. Selected Financial Data

6 Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations All of the assets of Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account (the "Account") are invested in the Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the "Partnership"). Correspondingly, the liquidity, capital resources and results of operations for the Real Property Account are contingent upon the Partnership. Therefore, all of management's discussion of these items is at the Partnership level. The partners in the Partnership are The Prudential Insurance Company of America, Pruco Life Insurance Company, and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey (collectively, the "Partners"). The following analysis of the liquidity and capital resources and results of operations of the Partnership should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the related Notes to the Financial Statements included elsewhere herein. (a) Liquidity and Capital Resources As of December 31, 2000, the Partnership's liquid assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $15.5 million, a decrease of $1.3 million from December 31, 1999. This decrease was due primarily to distributions to Partners of $22 million, coupled with the investment of available cash in real estate assets. Offsetting these cash outflows was $12.9 million in proceeds received from the sale of one of the Partnership's office properties, $8.2 million in proceeds from the sale of the Partnership's entire investment in ProLogis REIT shares, and net cash flow from property operations. Other sources of liquidity include interest from short-term investments and dividends from REIT shares. The Partnership's investment policy allows up to 30% investment in cash and short-term obligations, although the Partnership generally holds approximately 10% of its assets in cash or liquid instruments. At December 31, 2000, 7% of the Partnership's assets consisted of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. In 1986, Prudential committed to fund up to $100 million to enable the Partnership to acquire real estate investments. Contributions to the Partnership under this commitment are utilized for property acquisitions, and returned to Prudential on an ongoing basis from contract owners' net contributions and other available cash. The amount of the commitment is reduced by $10 million for every $100 million in current value net assets of the Partnership. Thus, with $206 million in net assets, the commitment has been automatically reduced to $80 million. As of December 31, 2000, Prudential's equity interest in the Partnership under this commitment, on a cost basis, was $44 million. Prudential does not intend to make contributions during the 2001 fiscal year and will begin to phase out this commitment over the next several years. As discussed previously, the Partnership made $22 million in distributions to the Partners during 2000 from excess cash. Additional distributions may be made to the Partners during 2001 based upon the percentage of assets invested in short-term obligations, taking into consideration anticipated cash needs of the Partnership including potential property acquisitions, property dispositions and capital expenditures. Management anticipates that its current liquid assets and ongoing cash flow from operations will satisfy the Partnership's needs over the next twelve months and the foreseeable future. During 2000, the Partnership spent approximately $4.2 million in additions to real estate properties. Approximately $1.7 million was associated with the renovation of the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL. The remaining $2.2 million balance was primarily associated with capital expenditures in relation to leasing activity at the office properties located in Brentwood, TN, Morristown, NJ and Beaverton, OR. 7 (b) Results of Operations The following is a brief discussion of the Partnership's results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998. 2000 vs. 1999 The following table presents a comparison of the Partnership's sources of net investment income, and realized and unrealized gains or losses by investment type, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999.
Twelve Months Ended December 31 2000 1999 ---------------- ---------------- Net Investment Income: Office properties $ 5,356,934 $ 7,133,356 Apartment complexes 3,446,245 2,556,743 Retail property 2,772,438 2,676,387 Industrial properties 1,257,146 894,258 Equity in income of real estate partnership 791,596 96,375 Dividend income from real estate investment trust 1,744,611 1,221,843 Other (including interest income, investment mgt. fee, etc.) (1,730,853) (1,301,373) ------------ ------------ Total Net Investment Income $ 13,638,117 $ 13,279,589 ------------ ------------ Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments: Office properties (2,434,245) $ (3,267,264) Apartment complexes 2,717,915 607,234 Retail Property (264,300) (1,770,462) Industrial Properties (935,721) (209,503) Interest in Properties 140,614 (680,870) Real estate investment trusts 2,618,815 (2,282,044) ------------ ------------ 1,843,078 (7,183,903) ------------ ------------ Realized Gain (Loss) on Investments Office properties 186,920 -- Apartment complexes -- -- Industrial properties -- (1,485) Interest in properties -- 45,126 Real estate investment trust 2,457,024 (76,784) ------------ ------------ 2,643,944 (33,143) ------------ ------------ Total Realized and Unrealized Gain ------------ ------------ (Loss) on Investments $ 4,487,022 $ (7,217,046) ------------ ------------
The Partnership's net investment income in 2000 was $13.6 million, an increase of $0.3 million from net investment income of $13.3 million in 1999. 8 Equity in income of real estate partnership increased $0.7 million, or 704.7%, in 2000 due to the acquisition of an equity investment interest in the retail portfolio located in the Kansas City, MO area. This interest was not acquired until September 30, 1999. Therefore, equity in income of real estate partnerships for the period ended December 31, 1999 represents only three months of activity, while activity for the period ended December 31, 2000 represents a full year of activity. Dividend income from real estate investment trusts was $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, an increase of $0.5 million or 42.8% from the corresponding period in 1999. This increase was primarily due to higher amounts invested in real estate investment trusts. Amounts invested in REIT shares averaged approximately $28.6 million during 2000 compared to approximately $22.4 million during 1999. Interest on short-term investments decreased approximately $0.4 million or 25.0% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 due primarily to a significantly lower average cash balance. Cash and cash equivalents during 2000 averaged approximately $16.6 million compared to approximately $32.0 million during 1999. Operating expenses increased $0.6 million or 15.7% to $4.4 million during the period ended December 31, 2000 when compared to the corresponding period in 1999. This increase was primarily a result of the Partnership's acquisition of a controlling interest in the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL. Interest expense increased $0.6 million, or 404.1%, in 2000 when compared to the corresponding periods in 1999. This increase was due to the Partnership's acquisition on September 30, 1999 of a controlling interest in the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL, which was acquired subject to $10.2 million in debt. Office Properties Net investment income from property operations for the office sector decreased approximately $1.8 million, or 24.9%, in 2000 when compared to 1999. This decrease was primarily due to lower revenue levels experienced by the Oakbrook Terrace, IL office complex during 2000 as a result of the lease termination fee received during 1999 coupled with a corresponding decrease in occupancy. A 36% decrease in occupancy at one of the Brentwood, TN office properties also contributed to the decrease. The office properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $2.4 million during 2000 compared to a net unrealized loss of $3.3 million in 1999. During 2000, the Oakbrook Terrace, IL property decreased $1.6 million in value due to a lease termination associated with 45% of the space and weaker market conditions. One of the Brentwood, TN office properties also experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.8 million primarily due to capital expenditures on the property that were not reflected as an increase in market value. Approximately half of the $3.3 million net unrealized loss in 1999 was attributable to the office building located in Oakbrook Terrace, IL, which experienced costs associated with re-leasing and expected vacancy resulting from the lease termination exercised by a tenant. The Beaverton, OR office property also experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.8 million. This decline in value was partially attributable to an anticipated reduction in investor demand for suburban office properties. The Lisle, IL office property also experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.7 million primarily due to capital expenditures on the property that were not reflected as an increase in market value. The Morristown, NJ office property was sold on October 26, 2000 and resulted in a realized gain of approximately $0.2 million. Occupancy at the Lisle, IL office property increased from 88% at December 31, 1999 to 94% at December 31, 2000. Occupancy at one of the Brentwood, TN office complexes decreased from 95% to 59% from December 31, 1999 to December 31, 2000, while occupancy at the other Brentwood, TN office property remained unchanged at 100%. Occupancy at the Oakbrook Terrace, IL office complex decreased from 100% at December 31, 1999 to 52% at December 31, 2000, while occupancy at the Beaverton, OR office complex decreased from 100% at December 31, 1999 to 95% at December 31, 2000. As of December 31, 2000 all vacant spaces were being marketed. 9 Apartment Complexes Net investment income from property operations for the apartment sector was $3.4 million in 2000, an increase of $0.9 million or 34.8% compared with 1999. This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of the controlling interest in the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL. The apartment complexes owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized gain of $2.7 million and $0.6 million in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The largest share of the unrealized gain for 2000 or $1.7 million was experienced by the apartment complex located in Atlanta, GA primarily due to increases in rental rates, stabilized occupancy, and lower operating expense estimates. The apartment complex located in Raleigh, NC also experienced a net unrealized gain of $0.2 million due to increases in rental rates. The net unrealized gain of $0.6 million during 1999 was primarily experienced by the Atlanta, GA apartment complex which increased in value due to improved market conditions which resulted in higher rent levels. The occupancy at the Atlanta, GA complex remained unchanged at 98% as of December 31, 1999 and December 31, 2000. Occupancy at the apartment complex in Raleigh, NC also remained unchanged at 92% as of December 31, 1999 and December 31, 2000. Occupancy at the Jacksonville, FL apartment complex increased from 89% as of December 31, 1999 to 91% as of December 31, 2000. This increase is largely a result of renovations completed at the project. As of December 31, 2000, all available vacant units were being marketed. Retail Property Net investment income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 for the Partnership's retail property located in Roswell, GA was approximately $2.7 million for both periods. The retail property experienced a net unrealized loss of $0.3 million and $1.8 million in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The unrealized loss experienced by the property in 2000 was due to lower projected income growth, coupled with capital expenditures which did not increase the market value of the property. The decrease in value in 1999 was attributable to a declining position of the property in the market. Occupancy at the shopping center located in Roswell, GA decreased from 97% as of December 31, 1999 to 96% as of December 31, 2000. As of December 31, 2000, all vacant space was being marketed. Industrial Properties Net investment income from property operations for the industrial properties increased from $0.9 million in 1999 to $1.3 million in 2000. The majority of the increase was a result of increased occupancy throughout 2000 at the property located in Aurora, CO. The three industrial properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.9 million and a net unrealized gain of $0.2 million in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The majority of the decrease for 2000 was attributable to the Aurora, CO industrial property, which had a loss of approximately $0.7 million due to more conservative assumptions regarding rental rates, lease-up time and terminal capitalization rates used by the appraiser. In addition, capital expenditures were incurred at the property which were not reflected as an increase in market value. The industrial property located in Bolingbrook, IL experienced an unrealized loss of $0.4 million in 2000. This loss was due to the expiration of the single tenant lease with no replacement tenant being signed as of yet. A portion of the space was temporarily leased during the fourth quarter of 2000. The occupancy at the Bolingbrook, IL property decreased from 100% at December 31, 1999 to 45% at December 31, 2000. As of December 31, 2000 the Salt Lake City, Utah was 50% leased with two tenants. However, one tenant for approximately 33% of the space was bankrupt and had moved out of the space by year-end. The Salt Lake City, UT property had an occupancy rate of 34% at December 31, 1999. The Aurora, Co property's occupancy rate remained unchanged at 75% from December 31, 1999 to December 31, 2000. As of December 31, 2000, all vacant spaces were being marketed. 10 Equity in Income of Real Estate Partnership On September 30, 1999, the Partnership invested in an equity joint venture of retail centers located in the Kansas City, MO area. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2000, income from this investment amounted to $0.8 million compared to $0.1 million for the corresponding period in 1999. The increase in income was attributable to the Partnership holding the investment for a full year during 2000 as opposed to only three months during 1999. This investment experienced a net unrealized gain in 2000 of $0.1 million. During 1999, the investment experienced a net unrealized loss of $0.7 million, primarily due to capital expenditures on the properties that were not reflected as an increase in market value. The retail portfolio located in the Kansas City, MO area had an average occupancy of 91% as of December 31, 2000 compared to an average occupancy of 90% as of December 31, 1999. As of December 31, 2000, all vacant spaces were being marketed. Real Estate Investment Trusts The Partnership recognized a net realized gain from real estate investment trusts of $2.5 million in 2000 primarily due to the sale of the Partnership's remaining investment in ProLogis REIT shares and sales of other REIT investments. The Partnership's investment in REIT shares experienced an unrealized gain of $2.6 million and an unrealized loss of $2.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. These changes in unrealized gain and loss reflect changes in the market value of REIT shares held by the Partnership. Other Other net investment income decreased $0.5 million during 2000 compared to the corresponding period last year. Other net investment income includes interest income from short-term investments, investment management fees, and expenses not related to property activities. The decrease in 2000 was primarily due to lower interest income on short-term investments primarily as a result of the Partnership maintaining a significantly lower cash balance as noted previously. 11 1999 vs. 1998 The following table presents a comparison of the Partnership's property results of operations, and realized and unrealized gains or losses by investment type, for the twelve months ended December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998.

12 The Partnership's net investment income for 1999 was $13.3 million, a decrease of $2.5 million from the prior year. This was primarily the result of the sales of an industrial property in Pomona, CA and an apartment complex in Farmington Hills, MI, offset by the acquisition of an apartment complex in Jacksonville, FL. These transactions generated a reduction of $3.0 million in real estate revenues but only $400,000 in expenses. As a result, investment income decreased while investment expenses remained relatively flat. Revenue from real estate and improvements was $21.8 million in 1999, a decrease of $2.8 million, or 11.3%, from $24.6 million in 1998 mainly as a result of the sales of the industrial property and apartment complex discussed previously. Income from interest in properties increased $64,913, or 194.0%, from $33,462 in 1998 to $98,375 in 1999 primarily as a result of the Partnership investing in a retail portfolio located in Kansas City, KS and Kansas City, MO. On March 30, 1999, the Partnership converted 506,894 shares of Meridian REIT to 557,583 shares of ProLogis REIT, with a fair value of $10,942,566, and cash of $1,013,796 (or total fair value of $11,956,362) as a result of ProLogis' acquisition of Meridian Industrial Trust. The conversion resulted in a realized gain of $401,713. Dividend income from real estate investment trusts amounted to $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of $0.6 million, or 82.6%, compared to the corresponding period in 1998. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the amount invested in REIT stocks. Administrative expenses increased $283,714, or 14.5%, during 1999. This increase was primarily due to the acquisition of the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL coupled with higher expense levels experienced by the Westpark office property located in Brentwood, TN. Interest expense increased $145,418, or 100%, in 1999 as a result of the Partnership's investment in the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL, which was acquired subject to $10.2 million in debt. Minority interest in consolidated partnership increased $33,746, or 100%, as a result of the Partnership's joint venture investment in the apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL. Office Properties Net investment income from property operations for the office sector decreased approximately $136,000, or 2%, for the year ended December 31, 1999 when compared to the corresponding period in 1998. The six office properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $3.3 million during 1999 compared to a net unrealized gain of $3.0 million in 1998. The largest share of this net unrealized loss was due to the office property located in Oakbrook Terrace, IL. This $1.6 million value decrease was due to changes in anticipated costs associated with assumed re-leasing of the facility which were used in valuing the property. The Beaverton, OR office property also experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.8 million. This decline in value was due to a change in discounted cash flow assumptions resulting from the large amount of Class "A" space under construction in the local market. In addition, a lower renewal probability in determining the valuation of the property was utilized for a major tenant expected to be vacating their space upon expiration. The Lisle, IL office property also experienced a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.7 million primarily due to capital expenditures on the property that were not reflected as an increase in market value. The office complex located in Morristown, NJ is expected to be marketed for sale during 2000. Occupancy at the Beaverton, OR, Oakbrook Terrace, IL, and one of the Brentwood, TN properties remained unchanged from December 31, 1998 at 100%. Occupancy at the Morristown, NJ property increased from 86% at December 31, 1998 to 100% at December 31, 1999 while occupancy at the Lisle, IL office property decreased from 96% at December 31, 1998 to 88% at December 31, 1999. Occupancy at the other Brentwood, TN property owned by the Partnership decreased from 100% at December 31, 1998 to 95% at December 31, 1999. As of December 31, 1999 all vacant spaces were being marketed. 13 Apartment Complexes Net investment income from property operations for the apartment sector was $2.6 million in 1999, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 43.1%, when compared to 1998. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of the apartment complex located in Farmington Hills, MI in 1998. The apartment complexes owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized gain of $0.6 million for both years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. The net realized gain of $1.7 million experienced in 1998 was due to the Farmington Hill, MI apartment complex which was sold on October 8, 1998 for $16.9 million. On September 17, 1999, the Partnership invested in an apartment complex located in Jacksonville, FL. This joint venture investment required the Partnership to contribute $7.5 million and the partner to contribute $0.4 million. There is $10.2 million in debt on this garden apartment complex. The occupancy at the Atlanta, GA complex increased from 96% at December 31, 1998 to 98% at December 31, 1999. Occupancy at the apartment complex in Raleigh, NC decreased from 93% at December 31, 1998 to 92% at December 31, 1999. Occupancy at the Jacksonville, FL apartment complex was 89% at December 31, 1999. As of December 31, 1999, all available vacant spaces were being marketed. Retail Property Net investment income for the Partnership's retail property located in Roswell, GA was approximately $2.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. The retail property experienced a net unrealized loss of $1.8 million and $1.3 million in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in value in 1999 was attributable to a declining position of the property in the market, while the decrease in 1998 was a reflection of lower rents. The complex is no longer being actively marketed for sale. Occupancy at the shopping center located in Roswell, GA decreased from 98% at December 31, 1998 to 97% at December 31, 1999. As of December 31, 1999, all vacant spaces were being marketed. Industrial Properties Net investment income from property operations for the industrial properties decreased from $1.3 million in 1998 to $0.9 million in 1999. The majority of this 32.5% decrease was a result of the sale of Pomona Industrial Park, including the land, offset by an increase in net investment income for the industrial properties located in Aurora, CO and Salt Lake City, UT due to increased occupancy. The three industrial properties owned by the Partnership experienced a net unrealized gain of approximately $210,000 and $334,000 in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The majority of the increase for 1999 was attributable to the Aurora, CO industrial property due to improved market conditions, higher market rental rates, and the absorption of vacant space. The Pomona, CA property was sold on December 17, 1998 for $21.4 million and resulted in a realized gain of $1.2 million. The occupancy at the Bolingbrook, IL property was 100% at December 31, 1999 and 1998. The occupancy at the Salt Lake City, Utah property increased to 34% at December 31, 1999 from 0% at December 31, 1998. The Aurora, CO property's occupancy rate increased from 46% at December 31, 1998 to 75% at December 31, 1999. As of December 31, 1999, all vacant spaces were being marketed. Equity in Income of Real Estate Partnership On September 30, 1999, the Partnership invested in a retail portfolio located in the Kansas City, MO area. This joint venture investment required the Partnership to contribute $5.1 million to the investment and the partner to contribute $1.7 million. There is $21.0 million in debt on this retail portfolio. During the twelve months ended December 31, 1999, income from interest in 14 this investment amounted to $98,375. This investment experienced a net unrealized loss in 1999 of $0.7 million primarily due to capital expenditures on the property that were not reflected as an increase in market value. The retail portfolio located in Kansas City, MO and Kansas City, KS had an average occupancy of 90% at December 31, 1999. As of December 31, 1999, all vacant spaces were being marketed. Real Estate Investment Trusts During 1999, the Partnership recognized a realized gain of $401,713 from the conversion of 506,894 shares of Meridian REIT to 557,583 shares of ProLogis REIT. This was offset by a realized loss of $478,497 primarily as a result of the sale of 171,375 ProLogis REIT shares and other investments in REIT stocks. Management continued applying a 3% discount to the market value of the ProLogis REIT shares through June 29, 1999 because of a restriction which limits the number of shares that can be publicly traded during any six month period. The application of the 3% discount was discontinued on June 30, 1999 because this restriction no longer applied. Other Other net investment income decreased $0.6 million during 1999 when compared to the corresponding period in 1998. Other net investment income includes interest income from short-term investments, investment management fees, and expenses not related to property activities. 15 (c) Per Share Information Following is an analysis of the Partnership's net investment income and net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments, presented on a per share basis:

The Partnership's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates to about 12% of its investment portfolio consisting primarily of short-term fixed rate commercial paper and variable interest rate debt. The Partnership does not use derivative financial instruments. By policy, the Partnership places its investments with high quality debt security issuers, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer, limits duration by restricting the term, and holds investments to maturity except under rare circumstances. The table below presents the amounts and related weighted interest rates of the Partnership's cash equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 2000: Estimated Market Value Average Maturity (in $ millions) Interest Rate -------------------------------------------------------- Cash equivalents 0-3 months $8.9 6.55% Short-term investments 3-12 months $4.9 6.57% The table below discloses the Partnership's variable rate debt as of December 31, 2000.

F-1 Report of Independent Accountants To the Contract Owners of the Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account and the Board of Directors of Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account at December 31, 2000, and the results of each of their operations and the changes in their net assets for each of the three years in the period ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit 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.

F-3 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF PRUCO LIFE OF NEW JERSEY VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY ACCOUNT December 31, 2000 Note 1: General Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account ("Real Property Account") was established on October 30, 1987 by resolution of the Board of Directors of Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey ("Pruco Life of New Jersey"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("Prudential"), as a separate investment account pursuant to New Jersey law. The assets of the Real Property Account are segregated from Pruco Life of New Jersey's other assets. The Real Property account is used to fund benefits under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by Pruco Life of New Jersey. These products are Appreciable Life ("VAL"), Variable Life ("VLI"), Discovery Plus ("SPVA"), and Discovery Life Plus ("SPVL"). The assets of the Real Property Account are invested in The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the "Partnership"). The Partnership is organized under New Jersey law and is registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership is the investment vehicle for assets allocated to the real estate investment option under certain variable life insurance and annuity contracts. The Real Property Account, along with the Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account and The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Account, are the sole investors in the Partnership. The Partnership has a policy of investing at least 65% of its assets in direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage loans. Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies A. Basis of Accounting The accompanying financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. B. Investment in Partnership Interest The investment in the Partnership is based on the Real Property Account's proportionate interest of the Partnership's market value. At December 31, 2000 and 1999 the Real Property Account's interest in the Partnership was 4.5% or 404,158 shares and 4.3% or 435,051 shares respectively. C. Income Recognition Net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized daily. Amounts are based upon the Real Property Account's proportionate interest in the Partnership. D. Equity of Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey Pruco Life of New Jersey maintains a position in the Real Property Account for property acquisitions and capital expenditure funding needs. The position is also utilized for liquidity purposes including unit purchases and redemptions, Partnership share transactions, and expense processing. The position does not have an effect on the contract owner's account or the related unit value. F-4 Note 3: Investment Information for The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership The number of shares (rounded) held by the Real Property Account in the Partnership, the Partnership net asset value per share (rounded) and the aggregate cost of investments in the Real Property Accounts' shares held at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 were as follows: December 31, 2000 December 31, 1999 ----------------- ----------------- Number of Shares (rounded: 404,158 435,051 Net Asset Value per Share (rounded): $22.74 $20.86 Cost: $4,700,545 $5,058,737 Note 4: Contract Owner Unit Information Outstanding contract owner units, unit values and total value of contract owner equity at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 by product, were as follows:

Note 5: Charges and Expenses A. Mortality Risk and Expense Risk Charges Mortality risk and expense risk charges are determined daily using an effective annual rate of 0.6%, 0.35%, 0.9% and 0.9% for VAL, VLI, SPVA, SPVL, respectively. Mortality risk is that life insurance contract owners may not live as long as estimated or annuitants may live longer than estimated and expense risk is that the cost of issuing and administering the policies may exceed related charges by Pruco Life of New Jersey. B. Administrative Charges Administrative charges are determined daily using an effective annual rate of 0.35% applied daily against the net assets representing equity of contract owners held in each subaccount for SPVA and SPVL. Administrative charges include costs associated with issuing the contract, establishing and maintaining records, and providing reports to contract owners. C. Cost of Insurance and Other Related Charges Contract owner contributions are subject to certain deductions prior to being invested in the Real Property Account. The deductions for VAL and VLI are (1) state premium taxes; (2) sales charges which are deducted in order to compensate Pruco Life of New Jersey for the cost of selling the contract and (3) transaction costs, applicable to VAL, are deducted from each premium payment to cover premium collection and processing costs. Contracts are also subject to monthly charges for the costs of administering the contract to compensate Pruco Life of New Jersey for the guaranteed minimum death benefit risk. F-5 D. Deferred Sales Charge Subsequent to a contract owner redemption, a deferred sales charge is imposed upon surrenders of certain variable life insurance contracts to compensate Pruco Life of New Jersey for sales and other marketing expenses. The amount of any sales charge will depend on the number of years that have elapsed since the contract was issued. No sales charge will be imposed after the sixth and tenth year of the contract for SPVL and VAL, respectively. No sales charge will be imposed on death benefits. E. Partial Withdrawal Charge A charge is imposed by Pruco Life of New Jersey on partial withdrawals of the cash surrender value for VAL. A charge equal to the lesser of $15 or 2% will be made in connection with each partial withdrawal of the cash surrender value of a contract. Note 6: Taxes Pruco Life of New Jersey is taxed as a "life insurance company" as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. The results of operations of the Real Property Account form a part of Prudential's consolidated federal tax return. Under current federal law, no federal income taxes are payable by the Real Property Account. As such, no provision for the tax liability has been recorded in these financial statements.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. F-18 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP For Years Ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 Note 1: Organization On April 29, 1988, The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the "Partnership"), a general partnership organized under New Jersey law, was formed through an agreement among The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("Prudential"), Pruco Life Insurance Company ("Pruco Life"), and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey ("Pruco Life of New Jersey"). The Partnership was established as a means by which assets allocated to the real estate investment option under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by the respective companies could be invested in a commingled pool. The Partners in the Partnership are Prudential, Pruco Life and Pruco Life of New Jersey. The Partnership's policy is to invest at least 65% of its assets in direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage loans. The estimated market value of the Partnership's shares is determined daily, consistent with the Partnership Agreement. On each day during which the New York Stock Exchange is open for business, the net asset value of the Partnership is estimated using the estimated market value of its assets, principally as described in Notes 2A and 2B below, reduced by any liabilities of the Partnership. The periodic adjustments to property values described in Notes 2A and 2B below and other adjustments to previous estimates are made on a prospective basis. There can be no assurance that all such adjustments to estimates will be made timely. Shares of the Partnership are held by The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Account, Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account and Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account (the "Real Property Accounts") and may be purchased and sold at the then current share value of the Partnership's net assets. Share value is calculated by dividing the estimated market value of net assets of the Partnership as determined above by the number of shares outstanding. A contract owner participates in the Partnership through interests in the Real Property Accounts. Prudential Real Estate Investors ("PREI") is part of the Prudential Global Asset Management unit (`PGAM") and is a division of Prudential Investment Corp. PREI provides investment advisory services to the Partnership's Partners pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement. Note 2: Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies A: Basis of Presentation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. It is the Partnership's policy to consolidate those real estate partnerships in which it has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. B: Real Estate Investments - The Partnership's investments in real estate are initially valued at their purchase price. Thereafter, real estate investments are reported at their estimated market values based upon appraisal reports prepared by independent real estate appraisers (members of the Appraisal Institute or an equivalent organization) within a reasonable amount of time following acquisition of the real estate and no less frequently than annually thereafter. The Chief Real Estate Appraiser of PGAM's Risk Management Unit is responsible to assure that the valuation process provides objective and accurate market value estimates. American Appraisal Associates (the "Appraisal Management Firm"), an entity not affiliated with Prudential, has been appointed by PGAM to assist the Chief Real Estate Appraiser in maintaining and monitoring the objectivity and accuracy of the appraisal process. The Appraisal Management Firm, under the supervision of the Chief Real Estate Appraiser, approves the selection and scheduling of external appraisals; engages all external appraisers; reviews and provides comments on all external appraisals; prepares all F-19 quarterly update appraisals; assists in developing policies and procedures; and assists in the evaluation of the performance and competency of external appraisers, among other responsibilities. Effective July 1, 2000, the Chief Real Estate Appraiser retired. During the third and fourth quarters of 2000, the responsibilities of the Chief Real Estate Appraiser were performed by another officer of PGAM, who was advised by an independent real estate valuation consulting firm. The consulting firm performed valuation review services in connection with the valuation management activities/work performed by the Appraisal Management Firm but was not involved in the determination of estimated market value of real estate investments. PGAM hired a new Chief Real Estate Appraiser effective February 12, 2001. The purpose of an appraisal is to estimate the market value of real estate as of a specific date. Market value has been defined as the most probable price for which the appraised real estate will sell in a competitive market under all conditions requisite for a fair sale, with the buyer and seller each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and for self interest, and assuming that neither is under undue duress. The estimate of market value generally is a correlation of three approaches, all of which require the exercise of subjective judgment. The three approaches are: (1) current cost of reproducing the real estate less deterioration and functional and economic obsolescence; (2) discounting of a series of income streams and reversion at a specified yield or by directly capitalizing a single year income estimate by an appropriate factor; and (3) value indicated by recent sales of comparable properties in the market. In the reconciliation of these three approaches, the one most heavily relied upon is the one then recognized as the most appropriate by the independent appraiser for the type of real estate in the market. Real estate partnerships are valued at the Partnership's equity in net assets as reflected in the partnership's financial statements with properties valued as described above. The market value of real estate and real estate partnerships does not reflect transaction costs which may be incurred at disposition. As described above, the estimated market value of real estate and real estate related assets is determined through an appraisal process. These estimated market values may vary significantly from the prices at which the real estate investments would sell since market prices of real estate investments can only be determined by negotiation between a willing buyer and seller. Although the estimated market values represent subjective estimates, management believes these estimated market values are reasonable approximations of market prices and the aggregate value of investments in real estate is fairly presented as of December 31, 2000 and 1999. C: Investment in Real Estate Investment Trusts - Shares of real estate investment trusts (REITs) are generally valued at their quoted market price. These values may be adjusted for discounts relating to restrictions, if any, on the future sale of these shares, such as lockout periods or limitations on the number of shares which may be sold in a given time period. Any such discounts are determined by the Chief Real Estate Appraiser. On March 30, 1999, the Partnership converted 506,894 shares of Meridian REIT to 557,583 shares of ProLogis REIT, with a fair value of $10.9 million, and cash of $1.0 million (or total fair value of $11.9 million) as a result of ProLogis' acquisition of Meridian Industrial Trust. Management continued applying a 3% discount to the market value of the ProLogis REIT shares through June 29, 1999 because of the restriction which limits the number of shares that can be publicly traded during any six month period to 30% of the total shares originally acquired. The application of the 3% discount was discontinued on June 30, 1999 because this restriction no longer applied. F-20 D: Revenue Recognition - Rent from real estate is recognized when billed. Revenue from certain real estate investments is net of all or a portion of related real estate expenses and taxes, as lease arrangements vary as to responsibility for payment of these expenses between tenants and the Partnership. Since real estate is stated at estimated market value, net income is not reduced by depreciation or amortization expense. Dividend income is accrued at the ex-dividend date. E: Equity in Income of Real Estate Partnership - Equity in income from real estate partnership operations represents the Partnership's share of the current year's partnership income as provided for under the terms of the partnership agreements. As is the case with wholly-owned real estate, partnership net income is not reduced by depreciation or amortization expense. Frequency of distribution of income is determined by formal agreements or by the executive committees of the partnerships. F: Mortgage Loan Payable - Mortgage loan payable is stated at the principal amount of the obligation outstanding. G: Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash of $79,300 and $72,861 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, was maintained by the properties for tenant security deposits and is included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. H: Marketable Securities - Marketable securities are highly liquid investments with maturities of more than three months when purchased and are carried at estimated market value. I: Federal Income Taxes - The Partnership is not a taxable entity under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The income and capital gains and losses of the Partnership are attributed, for federal income tax purposes, to the Partners in the Partnership. The Partnership may be subject to state and local taxes in jurisdictions in which it operates. J: Management's Use of Estimates in the Financial Statements - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. F-21 Note 3: Real Estate Partnership Real estate partnership is valued at the Partnership's equity in net assets as reflected by the partnership's financial statements with properties valued as indicated in Note 2B above. The partnership's financial position at December 31, 2000 and 1999, and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998 are summarized as follows: December 2000 1999 --------------------------- Partnership Assets and Liabilities Real Estate at estimated market value $27,080,000 $26,350,000 Other Assets 1,470,801 1,685,059 ----------- ----------- Total Assets 28,550,801 28,035,059 ----------- ----------- Mortgage loans payable 20,669,422 20,889,782 Other Liabilities 665,365 1,250,146 ----------- ----------- Total Liabilities 21,334,787 22,139,928 ----------- ----------- Net Assets $ 7,216,014 $ 5,895,131 =========== =========== Partnership's Share of Net Assets $ 5,445,528 $ 4,506,257 =========== ===========

F-22 Note 4: Debt The mortgage loan has a variable interest rate which is adjusted annually. The rate is equal to the 6-month Treasury rate plus 1.565%. It is subject to a maximum of 11.345% and a minimum of 2.345%. The change from year to year may not be more than 2%. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the rate was 7.915% and 6.845%, respectively. As of December 31, 2000, the mortgage loan payable was payable as follows: Year Ending December 31, (000's) -------------------------- ------------------ 2001 $ 83 2002 90 2003 98 2004 104 2005 114 Thereafter 9,603 ------- Total $10,092 ======= The mortgage payable is secured by a real estate investment with an estimated market value of $20,500,000. Based on borrowing rates available to the Partnership at December 31, 2000 for loans with similar terms and average maturities, the carrying value of the Partnership's mortgage on the consolidated partnership approximates its estimated fair value. Different assumptions or changes in future market conditions could significantly affect estimated market value. Note 5: Leasing Activity The Partnership leases space to tenants under various operating lease agreements. These agreements, without giving effect to renewal options, have expiration dates ranging from 2001 to 2010. At December 31, 2000, the aggregate future minimum base rental payments under non-cancelable operating leases by year and in the aggregate are as follows: Year Ending December 31, (000's) -------------------------- ------------------ 2001 $ 9,189 2002 8,200 2003 5,683 2004 3,923 2005 3,447 Thereafter 11,683 ----------------- Total $42,125 ================= The above future minimum base rental payments exclude residential lease agreements which accounted for 33% of the Partnership's 2000 annual rental income. F-23 Note 6: Commitment From Partner In 1986, Prudential committed to fund up to $100 million to enable the Partnership to acquire real estate investments. Contributions to the Partnership under this commitment are utilized for property acquisitions, and returned to Prudential on an ongoing basis from contract owners' net contributions and other available cash. The amount of the commitment is reduced by $10 million for every $100 million in current value net assets of the Partnership. Thus, with $206 million in net assets, the commitment has been automatically reduced to $80 million. As of December 31, 2000, Prudential's equity interest in the Partnership under this commitment, on a cost basis, was $44 million. Prudential does not intend to make contributions during the 2001 fiscal year and will begin to phase out this commitment over the next several years. Note 7: Related Party Transactions Pursuant to an investment management agreement, Prudential charges the Partnership a daily investment management fee at an annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily gross asset valuation of the Partnership. For the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 management fees incurred by the Partnership were $2.7 million; $2.7 million; and $2.9 million, respectively. The Partnership also reimburses Prudential for certain administrative services rendered by Prudential. The amounts incurred for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 were $116,630; $116,463; and $116,128, respectively, and are classified as administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On June 28, 2000, the Partnership made an $8 million distribution to the Partners. On November 30, 2000, the Partnership made an additional $14 million distribution to the Partners. During 1999, distributions were made to the Partners of $30 million on February 1, 1999 and $6 million on December 23, 1999. Note 8: Impact of Recently-Issued Accounting Standards In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("FASB No. 133"). FASB No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. In June 1999, the FASB delayed the implementation date of FASB No. 133 by one year (January 1, 2001 for the Partnership). FASB No. 133 requires that all derivative instruments including certain embedded derivatives, be recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedge transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge transaction. Management of the Partnership has determined that, due to its limited use of derivative instruments, the adoption of FASB No.133 will not have a significant effect on the Partnership's financial position at January 1, 2001, nor is it expected to materially impact future results of operations. Note 9: Subsequent Events On February 15, 2001, the Partnership purchased a joint venture interest in an apartment portfolio located in Gresham, Oregon for a purchase price of $8.6 million.
