CNL Income Properties Agrees to Acquire Seven Former Six Flags Properties.

Park Operation to Be Refocused on Regional Markets, Creating Parks Reflective of Local Communities' Tastes and Demographics

ORLANDO, Fla. -- CNL Income Properties Inc., a real estate investment trust (REIT) focused on lifestyle properties, announced today it has entered into a series of related sale and leaseback agreements to acquire seven Six Flags Inc. properties. CNL Income Properties intends to acquire the properties in a $312 million asset purchase agreement consisting of $290 million in cash and a note receivable for $22 million. An affiliate of PARC Management, LLC ("PARC Management") entered into a related $312 million stock purchase agreement on Jan. 10, 2007 to purchase the properties from Six Flags. CNL Income Properties in turn will purchase and lease back the properties to PARC Management, which will operate the seven parks under a long-term, triple-net lease agreement.

PARC Management has announced that it intends to realign the operational strategy of the parks to focus on regional markets. "We are excited about the opportunity to combine our management team's amusement and family recreation industry experience with a long-term focused partner like CNL Income Properties," said Randal H. Drew, president and CEO of PARC Management. "These are notable properties and we believe our business processes aimed at guest safety and satisfaction will help make them even more attractive regional family entertainment destinations in the years to come."

"CNL Income Properties seeks opportunities to invest in lifestyle real estate assets," said Byron Carlock, president and CEO of CNL Income Properties. "Our strategy of teaming with significant industry operators is evidenced in this transaction with PARC Management. Drawing from his more than 40 years experience in the leisure industry, PARC Management Chairman Michael A. Jenkins envisions these parks becoming premier lifestyle activity destinations for the local communities they serve."

Upon completion of the acquisition, the parks will add to CNL Income Properties' diverse and growing portfolio of lifestyle assets, which includes water parks, family entertainment centers and now theme parks, in addition to ski resorts and golf course properties throughout the United States and Canada. In recent years, the company has acquired interests in approximately $1 billion of real estate in the lifestyle and recreation sectors.

"Lifestyle real estate refers to places where families can gather and create memories, and the demand for this type of real estate continues to increase," said Curt Caffey, director of investments for CNL Income Corp., the advisor to CNL Income Properties. "We are interested in the attractions sector as a growing segment of lifestyle real estate and in being an aggregator of this type of real estate."

The parks to be acquired in this transaction are:

* Darien Lake (Buffalo, N.Y.) - 978-acre, combination theme and water park resort with camping accommodations, a 21,000-person capacity performing arts center and catering facilities. Forty-three rides including five major roller coasters, 18 adult rides and 12 children's rides.
