LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INVESTMENTS

         Included  herein is a  discussion  of nine  Local  Limited  Partnership
Interests  acquired or  identified  for  acquisition  by Series 5. The Apartment
Complexes  owned by these Local Limited  Partnerships  are located in six states
and are being developed and constructed by seven  different  development  teams.
Each of the Apartment Complexes has received a reservation of Low Income Housing
Credits.  While the Fund Manager believes that Series 5 is reasonably  likely to
retain or acquire  an  interest  in each of these  Local  Limited  Partnerships,
Series 5 may not do so as a result of the failure by a Local Limited Partnership
to satisfy one or more conditions  precedent to the payment of each  installment
payment,  the  inability of Series 5 to raise  additional  capital  necessary to
complete  the purchase of the Local  Limited  Partnership  Interests  identified
herein,  the purchase of Local Limited  Partnership  Interests  other than those
identified herein, or other factors.  Moreover, the terms of any acquisition may
differ from those as described.  Accordingly,  investors  should not rely on the
ability  of Series 5 to retain  or  acquire  an  investment  in all these  Local
Limited  Partnerships  on the indicated  terms in deciding  whether to invest in
Series 5.

         Series  5  has  acquired  a  Local  Limited  Partnership   Interest  in
Chillicothe   Plaza   Apartments,   L.P.,   a   Missouri   limited   partnership
("CHILLICOTHE");  and  Spring  Valley  Terrace  Apartments,  L.L.C.,  an Arizona
limited liability company ("SPRING VALLEY"). Series 5 expects to acquire a Local
Limited Partnership Interest in Apartment Housing of Theodore,  Ltd., an Alabama
limited partnership ("APT.  HOUSING");  Bradley Villas, Limited Partnership,  an
Arkansas limited  partnership  ("BRADLEY");  El Reno Housing  Associates Limited
Partnership,  an Oklahoma limited partnership ("EL RENO");  Hughes Villas, L.P.,
an Arkansas limited partnership ("HUGHES"); Mark Twain Senior Community, L.P., a
California limited  partnership ("MARK TWAIN");  Murfreesboro  Villas,  L.P., an
Arkansas  limited  partnership  ("MURFREESBORO");  and  Tulsa-Crestview  Housing
Partners, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership qualified to do business in Oklahoma
("TULSA-CRESTVIEW").

         APT.  HOUSING  owns the Harbor Run  Apartments  in  Theodore,  Alabama;
BRADLEY owns the Bradley  Villas  Apartments in Bradley,  Arkansas;  CHILLICOTHE
owns the Chillicothe Plaza Apartments in Chillicothe, Missouri; EL RENO owns the

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

Tax Legislation

         On August 5,  1997,  President  Clinton  signed  into law the  Taxpayer
Relief Act of 1997 (the "1997 Act"). The 1997 Act includes many provisions, only
a few of which  are  directly  applicable  to an  investment  in  Series  5. The
provisions  of the 1997 Act that are material to an  investment  in Series 5 are
summarized below.

         Tax Rates. The 1997 Act includes provisions that reduce the tax imposed
on most net  capital  gains.  See  "Federal  Income Tax  Considerations  - Other
Important Tax  Considerations  - Tax Rates" in the Prospectus.  These provisions
utilize a two-tier approach to taxation of net capital gains.

         In the  first  tier,  the  maximum  tax rate on net  capital  gains for
individuals is reduced from 28% to 20%; the rate for individuals who would pay a
15% tax on net capital gains is reduced to 10%.  Effective July 29, 1997,  these
new rates  apply to assets  held for more than 18 months.  Assets  held for more
than 12 but less that 18 months may qualify for the maximum tax rate of 28%.



WNC6-12/SUPP1297
                                        8

<PAGE>



         In the second tier,  which is effective for any taxable year  beginning
after  December  31,  2000,  the 20% rate is reduced to 18% for assets held more
than five  years;  the 10% rate is reduced to 8% for assets  held more than five
years whenever acquired.

         These preferential  rates do not apply to collectibles  (e.g., fine art
and jewelry),  certain  qualified small business stock, and certain gains on the
sale of  depreciable  real property.  In the case of a sale of depreciable  real
property,  the  taxation  scheme is as  follows:  (i) the excess of  accelerated
depreciation over  straight-line  depreciation is taxed at ordinary income rates
(there will be no such excess in the case of the sale of an Apartment  Complex),
(ii) the balance of the  depreciation  is taxed at a top rate of 25%,  and (iii)
the balance of the gain is subject to the net capital  gains rates  described in
the preceding paragraphs.

         The rates  described  above  generally  apply for  purposes of both the
regular tax and the alternative minimum tax.

         Alternative  Minimum Tax. The  corporate  alternative  minimum tax (see
"Federal  Income Tax  Considerations  - Other  Important  Tax  Considerations  -
Alternative  Minimum  Tax" in the  Prospectus)  is repealed  for small  business
corporations  for taxable years ending after December 31, 1997. A corporation is
a small business corporation in 1998 if its average gross receipts for the prior
three years was less than  $5,000,000.  A corporation  that meets the $5,000,000
test initially  will be treated as a small business  corporation in future years
if its average gross receipts does not exceed $7,500,000.

         Another  amendment  made by the 1997 Act will  reduce the impact of the
alternative  minimum tax. For assets placed in service after  December 31, 1998,
depreciation  lives for regular tax purposes  will also be used for  alternative
minimum tax purposes.  See "Federal Income Tax  Considerations - Other Important
Tax Considerations - Alternative Minimum Tax" in the Prospectus.

         General  Business  Tax  Credit   Limitations.   As  set  forth  in  the
Prospectus,  the ability of taxpayers to use Tax Credits is subject to an annual
limitation on the  allowance of aggregate  general  business tax credits  (which
includes Tax Credits). See "Federal Income Tax Considerations - General Business
Tax Credit  Limitations" in the  Prospectus.  Effective for business tax credits
arising in taxable years beginning after December 31, 1997, business tax credits
limited by this rule are first  carried back one year and then forward 20 years.
Under  prior law,  such  credits  were first  carried  back three years and then
forward 15 years.

Tax Shelter Registration Number

         The taxpayer  identification number and tax shelter registration number
of Series 5 are 33-0745418 and  97175000054,  respectively.  See "Federal Income

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF 
OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Series 5 is  raising  equity  capital  from  investors  by means of its
Offering,  and is applying  such capital to the purchase  price and  acquisition
fees and costs of Local Limited Partnership Interests, Reserves and expenses. As
of August 29, 1997, Series 5 had received cash subscription funds of $1,400,000,
thereby satisfying the minimum Offering condition.  As of September 30, 1997 and
January 21, 1998, Series 5 had received and accepted  subscription  funds in the
amounts  of  $3,216,000   (3,216  Units),   and   $10,375,780   (10,406  Units),
respectively, of which $356,500 currently is represented by Promissory Notes.

         All of the proceeds  from the sale of Units have been  committed to the
purchase price and acquisition fees and costs of nine Local Limited  Partnership
Interests,  Reserves and expenses of this Offering. Series 5 requires a total of
approximately $14,184,000 in this regard. As of September 30, 1997, Series 5 had
made no capital contributions to Local Limited Partnerships.

         As of September  30, 1997,  Series 5 was indebted to WNC &  Associates,
Inc.  in the  amount of  approximately  $240,000.  The  component  items of such
indebtedness were as follows: accrued acquisition fees of approximately $125,000
and advances to pay front-end fees of approximately $115,000.

         Overall,  as reflected in its  Statement of Cash Flows,  Series 5 had a
net increase in cash and cash  equivalents of  approximately  $2,159,000 for the
period July 15, 1997 (date  operations  commenced) to September  30, 1997.  This
increase in cash  consisted of cash provided by (used in) operating  activities,
investing activities and financing activities, of approximately $(0), ($98,000),
and $2,257,000,  respectively. Cash provided from financing activities consisted
of Capital Contributions from Limited Partners of approximately  $2,498,000 less
offering expenses of approximately  $241,000.  Cash used by investing activities
consisted  entirely  of  the  payment  of  capitalized   acquisitions  costs  of
approximately  $98,000.  Cash provided and used by the  operating  activities of
Series 5 was minimal compared to its other activities. No cash was provided from
operations  and cash used in  operations  consisted  primarily  of payments  for
operating fees and expenses.

         It is not expected that any of the Local Limited  Partnerships in which
Series 5 will invest will  generate cash from  operations  sufficient to provide
distributions to the Limited Partners in any significant  amount. Such cash from
operations,  if any, would first be used to meet operating expenses of Series 5,
including the payment of the Asset Management Fee.

         The  investments of Series 5 will not be readily  marketable and may be
affected  by  adverse  general  economic   conditions   which,  in  turn,  could
substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the Apartment Complexes,
the Local Limited  Partnerships  and Series 5. These  problems may result from a
number of factors, many of which cannot be controlled. See "Risk Factors" in the
Prospectus.  Nevertheless, the Fund Manager anticipates that capital raised from
the  sale  of the  Units  will  be  sufficient  to fund  the  future  investment
commitments and proposed operations of Series 5.

         Series 5 will  establish  working  capital  Reserves  of at least 3% of
Capital  Contributions,  an amount  which is  anticipated  to be  sufficient  to
satisfy  general  working  capital and  administrative  expense  requirements of
Series 5, including  payment of the Asset Management Fee and expenses  attendant
to the preparation of tax returns and reports to the Limited  Partners and other
investor  servicing  obligations  of  Series 5.  Liquidity  would,  however,  be
adversely affected by unanticipated or greater than anticipated operating costs.
Liquidity  could  also be  affected  by  defaults  or delays in  payment  of the
Promissory  Notes,  from  which a portion of the  working  capital  Reserves  is
expected  to be  funded.  To  the  extent  that  working  capital  Reserves  are
insufficient  to satisfy the cash  requirements  of Series 5, it is  anticipated
that additional funds would be sought through bank loans or other  institutional
financing.  The Fund Manager may also apply any cash distributions received from
the Local  Limited  Partnerships  for such  purposes or to replenish or increase
working capital Reserves.

         Under the Partnership Agreement,  Series 5 does not have the ability to
assess the Limited  Partners for  additional  Capital  Contributions  to provide
capital if needed by Series 5 or Local  Limited  Partnerships.  Accordingly,  if
circumstances arise that cause the Local Limited Partnerships to require capital
in addition to that  contributed by Series 5 and any equity of the Local General
Partners,  the only  sources  from which such  capital  needs will be able to be
satisfied (other than the limited Reserves available at the Series 5 level) will
be (i) third-party  debt financing  (which may not be available if, as expected,
the  Apartment  Complexes  owned by the Local Limited  Partnerships  are already
substantially leveraged), (ii) additional equity

WNC6-12/SUPP1297
                                       10

<PAGE>



contributions  or advances of the Local  General  Partners,  (iii) other  equity
sources (which could  adversely  affect the interest of Series 5 in Tax Credits,
cash flow and/or proceeds of sale or refinancing of the Apartment  Complexes and
result in adverse tax consequences to the Limited Partners), or (iv) the sale or
disposition  of the  Apartment  Complexes  (which  could  have the same  adverse
effects as discussed in (iii) above).  There can be no assurance that funds from
any of such sources would be readily available in sufficient amounts to fund the
capital  requirements  of the Local Limited  Partnerships  in question.  If such
funds were not available,  the Local Limited Partnerships would risk foreclosure
on their  Apartment  Complexes if they were unable to  renegotiate  the terms of
their first  mortgages and any other debt secured by the Apartment  Complexes to
the extent the capital  requirements of the Local Limited Partnerships relate to
such debt. See "Risk Factors - Investment  Risks - Risks  Associated with Use of
Leverage"  and  "Investment  Objectives  and  Policies - Use of Leverage" in the
Prospectus.

         The capital  needs and  resources  of Series 5 are  expected to undergo
major  changes  during its first  several years of operations as a result of the
completion  of its  Offering  of  Units  and  its  acquisition  of  investments.
Thereafter,  the  capital  needs and  resources  of Series 5 are  expected to be
relatively  stable over the holding  periods of the  investments,  except to the
extent of proceeds received in payment of Promissory Notes and disbursed to fund
the deferred obligations of Series 5.

Results of Operations

         As reflected on its Statements of Operations,  Series 5 had no material
operations for the period July 15, 1997 (date operations commenced) to September
30, 1997.

         Of these 62 partnerships, 12 public and 34 private real estate programs
commenced  their  offerings  during the 10-year,  seven-month  period  beginning
January 1, 1987 (the "Prior  Programs").  See "Public  Programs  Sponsored"  and
"Private Programs  Sponsored" below. The Prior Programs were organized to invest
in apartment  complexes (by  acquiring  limited  partnership  interests in other
limited partnerships which owned the apartment  complexes)  benefitting from Low
Income  Housing  Credits  and,  in most  instances,  one or more other  forms of
Government Assistance. See "Government Assistance Programs." As will be the case
with respect to the Apartment  Complexes in which the  Partnership  will invest,
management and operational control of the properties in which the Prior Programs
have  invested  is  exercised  by the  general  partners  of the  local  limited
partnerships.

Public Programs Sponsored

         The 12 public  Prior  Programs  are WNC Housing Tax Credit  Fund,  L.P.
("HTCF");  WNC California Housing Tax Credits,  L.P.  ("CHTC");  WNC Housing Tax

         Through  July 31,  1997,  the 12 public  Prior  Programs  had raised an
aggregate  of  approximately  $152,022,000  in  capital  contributions  from  an
aggregate  of  approximately  9,300  investors  and  invested  in a total of 217
apartment properties located in the following jurisdictions:

         Alabama           (14)     Mississippi      (7)
         Arizona           (3)      Missouri         (5)

         The   aggregate   mortgage  debt   encumbering   the   properties   was
approximately  $265,077,000 and the aggregate acquisition cost of the properties
was approximately $376,448,000.  At the times of the Prior Programs' investments
therein 77 of the  properties  were  existing  apartment  complexes and 140 were
under development or construction by the local partnerships which own them.

         All of the public Prior  Programs  have as their  principal  investment
objective  providing Federal Low Income Housing Credits to their investors,  and
CHTC, CHTCII,  CHTCIII,  CHTCIV-4 and CHTCIV-5 have the additional  objective of
providing California Low Income Housing Credits.

Additional Information

          In a prior private program sponsored in 1981, WNC & Associates,  Inc.,
became successor  managing  general partner in 1989 after the original  managing
general partner had misappropriated partnership accounts.  Thereafter, using the
proceeds  from an RD loan,  the property  was  substantially  rehabilitated  and
continues to be owned and operated by the prior  program.  In a private  program
sponsored  in 1996, a Local  General  Partner was removed by the Sponsor in 1997
after  construction  defects  were  discovered  and the  Local  General  Partner
declared  bankruptcy.  The prior  program  purchased the bridge loan at its face
value upon maturity  thereof and  construction  has since been  completed  using
other funds loaned by the Sponsor and the prior program. The Sponsor anticipates
that the  property  will be listed for sale after  receipt of a  commitment  for
permanent  financing.  In a public  program  sponsored in 1993, a Local  General
Partner  was  removed by the  Sponsor in 1997  after the Local  General  Partner
violated  provisions of the Local Limited Partnership  Agreement.  The remaining
Local General Partner, which is an agency of the county in which the property is
located,  will be replaced by the Sponsor or an experienced  non-profit  agency.
And in 1997 five properties  owned by four prior private  programs and developed
by the same Local  General  Partner  were the  subject of notices of  adjustment
wherein the IRS claims that  development  fees to the Local General Partner were
not property  includable in the depreciable basis of the respective  properties.
Each of the Local Limited  Partnerships and the prior private programs has filed
a petition for readjustment before the United States Tax Court.

          Additional information with regard to certain of the Prior Programs is
set  forth  in  Tables  I,  II,  III  and V  which  comprise  Exhibit  A to this
Supplement. Reference also is made to Table VI which describes in greater detail
the properties in which these Prior  Programs have  invested.  Table IV has been
omitted since none of the prior programs has completed operations.

          There will be made available to any prospective  investor upon request
and without charge,  a copy of Table VI and upon request,  for a reasonable fee,
copies of the most recent  report on Form 10-K filed by any of the public  Prior
Programs with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

                               September 30, 1997

NOTE 1 -SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5 (the  "Partnership")  was formed
under  the  California  Revised  Limited  Partnership  Act on March 3,  1997 and
commenced  operations  on July 15, 1997.  The  Partnership  was formed to invest
primarily in other limited  partnerships which will own and operate multi-family
housing complexes that will qualify for low income housing credits.

The information  contained in the following notes to the financial statements is
condensed  from that  which  would  appear in the annual  financial  statements;
accordingly,  the  financial  statements  included  herein should be reviewed in
conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto contained in
the Partnership's  Annual Report. The Partnership  commenced operations July 15,
1997, consequently there is no Annual Report for prior years.

In  the  opinion  of  the  management,   the  accompanying  unaudited  financial
statements  contain  all  adjustments   (consisting  of  only  normal  recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30,
1997 and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the period July
15,  1997  (date  operations   commenced)  to  September  30,  1997.  Accounting
measurements at interim dates  inherently  involve greater reliance on estimates
than at year end. The results of operations for the interim period presented are
not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

The general  partner of the  Partnership  is WNC &  Associates,  Inc.  (the
"General Partner").  Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr., through the Cooper Revocable Trust,
owns just less than 70% of the outstanding stock of WNC & Associates,  Inc. John
B. Lester,  Jr. is the original  limited  partner of the  Partnership  and owns,
through the Lester Family Trust,  just less than 30% of the outstanding stock of
WNC & Associates, Inc.

Pursuant to the Partnership's Agreement of Limited Partnership,  the Partnership
is  authorized  to sell  25,000  units of limited  partnership  interest  in the
Partnership ("Units"), of which 3,216 Units in the amount of $3,216,000 had been
sold as of September 30, 1997.

Allocations Under the Terms of the Partnership Agreement
The General Partner has a 1% interest in operating  profits and losses,  taxable
income and loss and in cash available for distribution from the Partnership. The
limited  partners  will  be  allocated  the  remaining  99% of  these  items  in
proportion to the number of their respective units.

After the limited  partners have received sale or refinancing  proceeds equal to
their capital  contributions  and their return on investment  (as defined in the
Partnership's  Agreement  of Limited  Partnership)  and the General  Partner has
received  a  subordinated  disposition  fee (as  described  in Note 3 below) any
additional  sale or refinancing  proceeds will be distributed 90% to the limited
partners (in proportion to the number of their respective  Units) and 10% to the
General Partner.

NOTE 1 -SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Method of Accounting For Investment in Limited Partnerships
The Partnership  accounts for its investments in limited  partnerships using the
equity method of  accounting,  whereby the  Partnership  adjusts its  investment
balance for its share of each limited  partnership's  results of operations  and
for any distributions  received.  Costs incurred by the Partnership in acquiring
the  investments  in  limited  partnerships  are  capitalized  as  part  of  the
investment.

Losses from the limited  partnerships  will not be recognized to the extent that
the individual investment balance would be adjusted below zero.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The  Partnership  considers all bank  certificates of deposit with a maturity of
less than three months to be cash equivalents.

Offering Expenses
Offering  expenses consist of underwriting  commissions,  legal fees,  printing,
filing and  recordation  fees, and other costs incurred with selling Units.  The
General  Partner is  obligated to pay all  offering  and  organization  costs in
excess of 14.5%  (including sales  commissions) of the total offering  proceeds.
Offering expenses are reflected as a reduction of partners' capital.

Organization Costs
Organization costs will be amortized on the straight-line method over 60 months.

     partnerships).  The Partnership has incurred no such fees during the period

        A  subordinated  disposition  fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales

     limited  partners  receiving  a return on  investment  (as  defined  in the

During the period July 15, 1997 (date  operations  commenced)  to September  30,

50% by the delivery of a promissory  note bearing fixed  interest at the rate of
5.54%  per  annum.  Interest  rates are  established  quarterly.  Principal  and
interest  are due (i) January 31, 1999 if the investor  subscribes  on or before

equity.

classified as an asset.

returns.

The  information  contained in the  following  notes to the  proforma  financial

NOTE 2 - INTRODUCTION TO PROFORMA ADJUSTMENTS

As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership  was not admitted as majority  limited
partner in any limited  partnerships.  Subsequent  to September  30,  1997,  the
Partnership  has  acquired  a  limited  partnership   interest  in  two  limited
partnerships,  Chillicothe Plaza Apartments,  LP (Chillicothe) and Spring Valley
Terrace  Apartments LLC (Spring  Valley) and is  negotiating to acquire  limited
partnership  interests in five other  partnerships.  The investments  commit the
Partnership to capital contributions as follows:

In accordance with Article 11, Proforma Financial  Information of Regulation S-X
of the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  the  accompanying  proforma balance
sheet was computed assuming that the limited  partnerships  discussed above were
acquired at the end of the period  presented.  The first  adjustment to cash and
the adjustment to partners' equity of $4,154,520  reflects the net proceeds from
October 1 to December 19, 1997 from issuance of 5,107 units of limited partners'
capital  ($5,076,795  less notes  receivable of $237,500,  and  commissions  and
offering costs of $684,775.) The third  adjustment to cash and the adjustment to
subscriptions  receivable of $445,000  reflects the collection of  subscriptions
receivable from

the above  subscriptions.  The adjustment to investment in limited  partnerships
and  notes  payable  to  limited   partnerships   of  $6,985,436   reflects  the
Partnership's  acquisition of the seven limited partnership  interests as if the
Partnership's  date of acquisition was September 30, 1997. The second adjustment
to  investment  in limited  partnerships  and the second  adjustment  to cash of
$340,865  reflects the  acquisition  fee for the  acquisition  of the identified
limited partnerships.

Six of the seven apartment  complexes were under  construction or rehabilitation
during the period  presented  and had no  operations  which  should be reported.
Hughes  Villa had  operations  during the  period  presented  (July 15,  1996 to
September  30,  1996),  and proforma  income of $1,070 has been  recorded in the
Proforma  Statement of  Operations.  The  Partnership  uses the equity method of
accounting to account for its investments in these local limited partnerships.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

WNC & Associates,  Inc. (a California  corporation)  (the "Company"),  acts as a
corporate  general  partner and syndicator of both public and private  placement
real  estate  partnerships  (the  "Partnerships"),  which  invest  in  apartment
complexes  throughout  the United  States,  the majority of which are government
assisted apartment complexes that qualify for low income housing tax credits.

The Company is the general  partner of various  limited  partnerships  which own
government  assisted housing apartment  complexes (either directly or indirectly
through  other  partnership  interests).   The  majority  of  the  Partnerships'
apartment  complexes are subsidized  through various United States  governmental
low-income housing programs. The Company's interest in the profits and losses of
each  Partnership,  as general  partner,  varies  between  one-quarter  and five
percent.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated balance sheet includes the accounts of the Company
and its wholly owned  subsidiaries,  WNC Capital Corporation and WNC Management,
Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation.

WNC Capital  Corporation was incorporated in California on February 23, 1994 and
is registered with the Securities and Exchange  Commission as a broker/dealer in
securities.  WNC Capital  Corporation does not carry customers' accounts or hold
securities for the accounts of its customers.  WNC Capital Corporation  provides
wholesaling  services to affiliates  of the Company.  WNC  Management,  Inc. was
incorporated in California on April 28, 1997 and is in the business of providing
property  management services to government  assisted apartment  complexes.  WNC
Management, Inc. provides management services to affiliates of the Company.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the  consolidated  balance sheet in conformity with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,  as well
as disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The consolidated  balance sheet contains financial  instruments whereby the fair
market value of the financial instruments could be different than those recorded
on a  historical  basis in the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheet.  The
Company's  financial  instruments  consist of cash,  fees  receivable,  loans to
property  developers,   offering  costs  advanced,  due  from  and  advances  to
Partnerships,  notes payable to bank,  accounts  payable and due to Partnership.
Management  believes  that  the  carrying  amounts  of the  Company's  financial
instruments  generally  approximate their fair market values at August 31, 1997.
In the case of certain financial  instruments which are non-interest bearing, it
was not practical to determine  fair values due to the lack of a market for such
financial instruments.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company, at times, maintains cash balances at certain financial institutions
in excess of the federally insured amounts.

Risks and Uncertainties

Net Capital Requirements

WNC Capital  Corporation,  as a  broker-dealer,  is required under provisions of
Rule 15c-1 of the  Securities  and  Exchange  Act of 1934 to maintain a ratio of
aggregate  indebtedness to net capital,  as defined,  not to exceed 15 to 1. The
basic concept of the rule is liquidity,  its objective being to require a broker
or dealer to have, at all times,  sufficient  liquid assets to cover its current
indebtedness. WNC Capital Corporation is also required to maintain a minimum net
capital of $5,000 or 6-2/3% of aggregate indebtedness,  as defined, whichever is
greater.  At August 31, 1997, WNC Capital Corporation had net capital of $52,770
which is  $40,113  in  excess of the  required  minimum  capital  and a ratio of
aggregate indebtedness to net capital of 3.60 to 1.

Registration

WNC Capital  Corporation  must  register  with state  departments  which  govern
compliance with securities  laws in which it does business.  Various  regulatory
requirements exist in each state with which WNC Capital Corporation must comply.
Because  of the  various  compliance  laws,  there  is a risk  that  one or more
regulatory  authorities  could  determine that WNC Capital  Corporation  has not
complied with  securities  laws necessary for it to conduct  business in a given
state.  Regulatory  actions, if ever taken, could have a material adverse effect
on WNC Capital Corporation's financial condition.

Fees Receivable

Fees  receivable  consist of syndication  fees due from various  Partnerships in
which the Company acts as general partner. Certain syndication fees are received
by the Company from the  Partnerships as the limited partners make their capital
contributions to the Partnerships.

Loans to Property Developers

Loans to property  developers  are  comprised of amounts  loaned to, or deposits
made on behalf of, the  general  partners of limited  partnerships  in which the
Partnerships have or will have an equity interest. All such loans receivable are
secured by the respective general partners interest in the limited partnerships.
In the event a property  is not  acquired,  deposits  may not be refunded to the
Company.  Accordingly,  such amounts are written off in the period determined by
management  that a property  will not be acquired  and the  deposit  will not be
refunded.

Offering Costs Advanced

Offering  costs  advanced  represent  funds  that the  Company  advances  to the
Partnerships  for certain  costs and expenses to produce the offering  materials
and to qualify the  partnership  interests  for sale under the various  state or
federal  securities  laws.  Such  advances  are repaid to the Company out of the
Partnerships'  initial capital proceeds,  and may be subject to limitations,  as
defined, in the individual partnership agreements.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

Due From Partnerships

Due from Partnerships  consists of amounts advanced to Partnerships which invest
in  apartment  complexes.  Such  amounts  are  invested by the  Partnerships  in
apartment complexes as capital contributions pursuant to partnership agreements.
Such  amounts  are  non-interest  bearing  and are  due  upon  the  Partnerships
collection of proceeds from sales of Partnership units. As of July 31, 1997, the
Company had  amounts  due from two  Partnerships  which  represent  72% and 27%,
respectively, of the total due from Partnerships.

During 1997, the Company loaned  $1,035,509 to a Partnership  which invested the
funds into a property in Mississippi which was under construction. During fiscal
1997, it was determined by the Company that the property under  construction had
certain structural defects which resulted in material cost overruns.  Management
determined  the  estimated  possible  impairment  of this  loan to be  $500,000.
Accordingly,  such was reserved  for during the year ended August 31, 1997.  See
Litigation (see Note 8).

Organization Costs

Organization costs consist  principally of legal and regulatory fees incurred to
incorporate  WNC  Capital  Corporation  and obtain the  necessary  approvals  to
commence operations.  These costs,  totaling $14,797, are being amortized over a
five-year period on the straight-line  basis and are included in other assets in
the accompanying  consolidated balance sheet. Accumulated amortization at August
31, 1997 was $10,369.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment and improvements which extend the economic life of assets
are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful life of the related asset,  generally from three to five years.
Leasehold  improvements and capitalized leases are amortized over the shorter of
the life of the lease or estimated useful life of the related asset.

Investments in Partnerships

The Company records its investment in the Partnerships  using the equity method,
which  recognizes  the  Company's  proportionate  share of  income or loss as an
increase or decrease in the investment in the  Partnership.  As the Company acts
as the  General  Partner,  for those  Partnerships  where  recourse  losses have
occurred  in  excess  of the  Company's  investment,  amounts  are  recorded  as
accumulated losses of Partnerships in excess of investments.

Revenue Recognition

Syndication fees, which represent fees for selecting,  evaluating,  structuring,
negotiating  and closing  Partnership  investments in apartment  complexes,  are
recognized at the time the Partnerships' initial capital offerings are completed
and the Company's contractual obligations have been fulfilled.  Syndication fees
receivable  that are  scheduled  to be  collected  more  than one year  from the
Company's year end are discounted to reflect their present value.

Management fees, which represent an annual fee for providing  administrative and
management  services for Partnerships and their  investments,  are recognized as
earned and to the extent that such fees are deemed to be collectible,  generally
on a cash basis.

Commission revenue earned and related expenses associated with the operations of
WNC Capital Corporation are recorded when the related services are performed.

Income Taxes

The Company  accounts  for income  taxes under the  provisions  of  Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  109 (SFAS  109),  "Accounting  For Income
Taxes."  Under the asset and liability  method of SFAS 109,  deferred tax assets
and liabilities are recognized for the future tax  consequences  attributable to
differences  between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets
and  liabilities  and their  respective  tax  bases.  Deferred  tax  assets  and
liabilities  are measured  using enacted tax rates  expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which  those  temporary  differences  are  expected to be
recovered  or settled.  Under SFAS 109,  the effect on  deferred  tax assets and
liabilities  of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in the period that
includes the enactment date.

NOTE 2 - FEES RECEIVABLE

Aggregate annual future minimum collections as of August 31, 1997 total $179,646
and are all  collectible in 1998. At August 31, 1997, fees receivable from three
Partnerships  represented  45%,  32%,  and  19%,  respectively,  of  total  fees
receivable.

Litigation

The  Company  serves as a  limited  and  general  partner  to a certain  limited
partnership.  The  Company  loaned to the  limited  partnership  $1,035,509  for
development of the property.  The developed  property incurred  significant cost
overruns  due to  defects  in  construction.  As a result of such  defects,  the
Company  removed and  replaced  the local  general  partner.  In this  capacity,
construction  was completed by the Company.  The limited  partnership  has filed
suit against the  architects  and  contractors.  There have been various  claims
filed against the limited  partnership and certain liens placed on the property.
The ultimate outcome of the aforementioned actions are unknown at this time. The
Company has reserved  $500,000 of its due from  partnerships  in connection with
various  claims  filed.  Management  of the Company  does not  believe  that the
additional   effect  on  the  consolidated   balance  sheet  upon  the  ultimate
disposition of the aforementioned actions will be material.

Equity Participation Agreement

The  Company  has an equity  participation  agreement  with a key officer of the
Company and his spouse.  This agreement provided for an investment of $80,000 by
the  Company to acquire a 50%  interest  in  certain  property,  which was later
converted into real property for rental  purposes,  owned by the key officer and
his spouse.  Pursuant to terms of this agreement,  all income and losses arising
from the operations of the rental  property,  including the allocation of income
and losses upon a sale or refinance  shall be  allocated  50% to the Company and
50% to the key officer and his spouse.

Due From Officers and Stockholders

In April,  1993,  an officer and the  Company's  majority  stockholder  borrowed
$55,000.  This note bears  interest at 7.5% per annum.  The maturity date of the
note was  extended  along with  accrued  interest to March 31,  1998.  The note,
together with accrued interest,  is included in other assets in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet.

During 1994, an officer and stockholder of the Company  borrowed  $25,000.  This
note  bears  interest  at 7.5%  per  annum.  The  maturity  date of the note was
extended along with accrued interest to March 31, 1998. The note,  together with
accrued interest,  is included in other assets in the accompanying  consolidated
balance sheet.

                            PRIOR PERFORMANCE TABLES


         The tables set forth below present  financial  information with respect
to programs  which were  sponsored  by the  Sponsor.  Each of these  programs is
considered to have  investment  objectives  similar to those of the Fund in that
they each own  interests  in local  limited  partnerships  which own  properties
generating low income housing credits or, in the case of Shelter  Resource Fund,
benefitting  from  some  other  form  of  Government  Assistance.  However,  the
principal  investment  objective of Shelter  Resource Fund was to provide income
tax losses which its investors  could use to offset  income from other  sources.
None of these tables is covered by the reports of independent public accountants
set forth in this document.

         For additional information as to the investment objectives and policies
of such prior programs see "Prior Performance  Summary." Additional  information
concerning  prior  performance  is  included  in  Part  II of  the  Registration
Statement  of the Fund and for the  public  programs  in the  Form  10-K  annual
reports.  Copies of these 10-K Forms are  available to any investor upon request
to the  Sponsor.  Any such request  should be directed to 3158  Redhill  Avenue,
Suite 120, Costa Mesa, California 92626.

         The  purpose  of the  tables  is to  provide  information  on the prior
performance of these partnerships so as to permit a prospective purchaser of the
Units to evaluate  the  experience  of the Sponsor in  sponsoring  such  limited
partnerships. The tables consist of:

         Table I           Experience in Raising and Investing Funds
         Table II          Compensation to Sponsor
         Table III         Operating Results of Prior Programs
         Table V           Sales or Disposals of Properties

         Tables IV has been omitted since none of the prior  programs which were
sponsored by the Sponsor have completed operations.

Definitions

The  following  terms used in the prior  performance  tables have the  following
meanings:

interests,  including  equity  contributions,  acquisition  and  selection  fees
payable to the  general  partners  and other fees and  expenses  incident to the
acquisition of partnership interests.

"Capital  Contributions"  represents the  contributions by investors in the
prior partnerships.

"GAAP" means generally accepted accounting principles.

"Months to Invest 90% of Amount  Available for  Investment"  means the length of
time, in months, from the offering date to the date of the closing of properties
which,  in the aggregate,  represented  the investment  commitment of 90% of the
amount available for investment.

"Percent leverage" means mortgage financing divided by total acquisition costs.

TABLE III presents the operating  results for all partnerships  sponsored by the
Sponsor  which closed  during the five years and six months ended June 30, 1997.
The prior  partnerships  are  structured  as investment  partnerships  acquiring
interests in operating  partnerships.  The investment  partnerships  account for
such investments  using the equity method of accounting which recognizes each of
such partnership's pro rata share of the operating partnership's total income or
loss. Revenues generated by the investment partnerships consist substantially of
interest on short-term  investments.  This interest income  generally  decreases
after the initial two years of  operations  as funds  available  for  investment
decrease.  This  decrease  in funds  arises  from the  investment  partnership's
payments of capital contributions due.

The prior public partnerships  presented,  one of the prior private partnerships
closed in 1994 and all of the prior private partnerships closed in 1995 and 1997
report on a GAAP  basis,  and,  accordingly,  "Cash  generated  (or  used)  from
operations" is per each program's  Statement of Cash Flows.  The remaining prior
private programs maintain their books and records on the tax basis of accounting
and not on a GAAP basis, and "Cash generated (or used) from operations" for such
programs is per their respective books and records.  The significant  difference
is that  depreciation  expense  on a tax basis as  compared  to a GAAP  basis is
greater in the early years of operations.

Other  information  included in the table  includes data on cash  generated from
operations  and tax and  cash  distribution  information  per  $1,000  invested,
including Tax Credit allocations.

                        AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP



         The AGREEMENT OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP of WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND VI,
L.P.,  SERIES 5 dated as of March 3,  1997  among  WNC &  Associates,  Inc.,  as
General  Partner,  John B. Lester,  Jr., as Initial Limited  Partner,  and those
Persons admitted to the Partnership as Additional  Limited  Partners,  is hereby
amended  by the  General  Partner  pursuant  to the power  granted it in Section
12.1.2 of such Partnership Agreement as follows:

1.       Section 4.3.1 thereof shall be amended to read in its entirety
as follows:

         4.3.1.            Unless Section 4.3.3 applies, if there is an
aggregate Loss remaining, such remaining aggregate Loss shall be
allocated:

         (i) First, to the extent of the positive  Capital  Account  balances of
the Partners,  in such manner and amount as is necessary to cause such balances,
as so adjusted,  to be in the ratio of 99.9% to the Limited Partners and 0.1% to
the General Partner until such balances are reduced to zero;

         (ii) Second,  to the extent of the excess of  Partnership  Minimum Gain
over the aggregate  negative  Capital Account balances of the Partners with such
balances,  to the General  Partner  and the Limited  Partners in such manner and
amount as is necessary to cause their negative Capital Account  balances,  as so
adjusted,  to be in the ratio of 99.9% to the Limited  Partners  and 0.1% to the
General Partner; and

         (iii) Third, to the General Partner.

2.       Section 4.3.2 thereof shall be amended to read in its entirety
as follows:

         4.3.2.            Unless Section 4.3.3 applies, if there is an

                                       B-1

aggregate Profit remaining, such remaining aggregate Profit shall
be allocated:

         (i) First,  in the event that the Limited  Partners  have an  aggregate
positive  Capital Account balance and the General Partner has a negative Capital
Account  balance or vice versa,  to the class of Partners with and to the extent
of such negative balances;

         (ii) Second,  to the extent of the aggregate  negative  Capital Account
balances of the  Partners,  to the Limited  Partners and the General  Partner in
such manner and amount as is  necessary to cause the  negative  Capital  Account
balances of such  Partners,  as so adjusted,  to be in the ratio of 99.9% to the
Limited Partners and 0.1% to the General Partner; and

         (iii) Third, to the Limited  Partners to the extent that their positive
Capital Account balances are less than their Adjusted Capital Contributions.

3.       Section 4.4.1(i) thereof shall be amended to read in its
entirety as follows:

         4.4.1.(i) The provisions of this Agreement  related to the  maintenance
of Capital  Accounts,  the allocation of Profits and Losses for Tax Purposes and
Tax Credits  and the  distribution  of cash and  property  to the  Partners  are
intended  to  comply  with  the  requirements  of  Treasury  Regulation  Section
1.704-1(b)  by causing the amount of such Profits and Losses for Tax Purposes to
be allocated  among the Partners'  Capital  Accounts so that the amount in their
Capital  Accounts as of the end of each fiscal year of the  Partnership is equal
to the  Partners'  Deemed  Liquidation  Distributions.  Where  there would be no
Deemed Liquidation Distribution to the Partners, such provisions are intended to
comply  with the  above-referenced  Treasury  Regulations  by (a)  limiting  the
maximum negative balance in the Capital Accounts of the Limited  Partners,  as a
class,  to an amount  not in  excess of their  aggregate  share  (determined  in
accordance with Treasury  Regulation Section  1.704-2(g)) of Partnership Minimum
Gain, (b) allocating the Partnership's aggregate Nonrecourse Deductions to cause
the negative Capital Account balances of the Limited  Partners,  as a class, and
the General Partner to be in the ratio of 99.9% to the Limited Partners and 0.1%
to the General  Partner,  and (c)  allocating to the Partners an amount of gross
income  or  gain  of the  Partnership  to the  extent  necessary  to  cause  the
Partnership  to comply with  clauses (a) and (b) of this  sentence at the end of
each fiscal year of the Partnership.  In addition,  such provisions are intended
to cause the amount  distributable  to each  Partner  in an actual  distribution
pursuant  to Section  4.2.2 to equal the amount that would be  distributable  to
each  Partner  if  Section  4.2.1  rather  than  Section  4.2.2  applied to such
distribution.

4.       Section 4.4.3(ix) thereof shall be amended to read in its
entirety as follows:

         (ix)  Except  as  otherwise  expressly  provided  herein,   Nonrecourse
Deductions  shall be  allocated  99.9% to the Limited  Partners  and 0.1% to the
General Partner.

5.       Section 4.5.1 thereof shall be amended to read in its entirety
as follows:

         4.5.1. Except as provided in Section 4.5.2, in accordance with Treasury
Regulation  Section  1.704-1(b)(4)(ii),  all  expenditures  giving  rise  to the
allowance of any Tax Credits shall be allocated among the Partners in the manner
in which the deductions  arising from such  expenditures are allocated among the
Partners for the relevant  taxable  year, it being the intention of the Partners
that such expenditures,  including, without limitation, expenditures giving rise
to the  allowance  of Low Income  Housing  Credits,  be  allocated  99.9% to the
Limited Partners, as a class, and 0.1% to the General Partner.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF,  the undersigned have executed this First Amendment
to Partnership Agreement as of August 29, 1997.
