                                   (Unaudited)

                                  June 30, 1996


NOTE 1.
- -------

McNeil Real Estate Fund X, Ltd.  (the  "Partnership")  is a limited  partnership
organized  under the laws of the State of California to invest in real property.
The general  partner of the Partnership is McNeil  Partners,  L.P. (the "General
Partner"), a Delaware limited partnership, an affiliate of Robert A. McNeil. The
Partnership  is governed by an agreement of limited  partnership  (the  "Amended
Partnership Agreement") that was adopted October 9, 1991. The principal place of
business for the Partnership  and the General Partner is 13760 Noel Road,  Suite
700, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.

In the opinion of management,  the financial  statements reflect all adjustments
necessary for a fair  presentation of the Partnership's  financial  position and
results  of  operations.  All  adjustments  were of a normal  recurring  nature.
However,  the results of operations  for the six months ended June 30, 1996, are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results to be expected  for the year ending
December 31, 1996.

NOTE 2.
- -------

The  financial  statements  should  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial
statements  contained in the  Partnership's  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the
year  ended  December  31,  1995,  and the  notes  thereto,  as  filed  with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission,  which is available upon request by writing
to McNeil  Real Estate Fund X, Ltd.,  c/o McNeil Real Estate  Management,  Inc.,
Investor Services, 13760 Noel Road, Suite 700, LB70, Dallas, Texas 75240.

NOTE 3.
- -------

Certain prior period amounts within the accompanying  financial  statements have
been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

NOTE 4.
- -------

The  Partnership  pays property  management fees equal to 5% of the gross rental
receipts of the Partnership's properties to McNeil Real Estate Management,  Inc.
("McREMI"),  an  affiliate  of  the  General  Partner,  for  providing  property
management services for the Partnership's  residential and commercial properties
and leasing services for its residential  properties.  McREMI may also choose to
provide leasing services for the Partnership's  commercial properties,  in which
case  McREMI  will  receive  property   management  fees  from  such  commercial
properties  equal to 3% of the  property's  gross rental  receipts  plus leasing
commissions  based on the  prevailing  market rate for such  services  where the
property is located.



<PAGE>
The  Partnership  reimburses  McREMI  for  its  costs,  including  overhead,  of
administering the Partnership's affairs.

Under terms of the Amended  Partnership  Agreement,  the Partnership is paying a
Management  Incentive  Distribution  ("MID") to the General Partner. The maximum
MID is  calculated  as 1% of the tangible  asset value of the  Partnership.  The
maximum MID  percentage  decreases  subsequent to 1999.  Tangible asset value is
determined  by using the  greater  of (i) an amount  calculated  by  applying  a
capitalization  rate  of 9% to the  annualized  net  operating  income  of  each
property or (ii) a value of $10,000 per apartment unit for residential  property
and $50 per gross square foot for commercial  property to arrive at the property
tangible  asset value.  The property  tangible  asset value is then added to the
book value of all other assets excluding intangible items.

MID will be paid to the extent of the lesser of the  Partnership's  excess  cash
flow,  as  defined,  or net  operating  income,  as  defined  (the  "Entitlement
Amount"),  and may be paid (i) in cash, unless there is insufficient cash to pay
the  distribution  in which event any unpaid  portion not taken in Units will be
deferred and is payable,  without interest, from the first available cash and/or
(ii) in Units.  A maximum of 50% of the MID may be paid in Units.  The number of
Units  issued in payment  of the MID is based on the  greater of $50 per Unit or
the net tangible asset value, as defined, per Unit.

Any  amount  of the MID that is paid to the  General  Partner  in Units  will be
treated as if cash is distributed to the General Partner and is then contributed
to the Partnership by the General Partner. The MID represents a return of equity
to the General Partner for increasing cash flow, as defined,  and accordingly is
treated as a distribution.

Compensation,  reimbursements  and  distributions  paid  to or  accrued  for the
benefit of the General Partner and its affiliates are as follows:

NOTE 5.
- -------

On January 26, 1996, the Partnership  refinanced the Spanish Oaks mortgage note.
The new mortgage  note, in the amount of  $4,000,000,  bears  interest at 7.71%,
requires  monthly  principal  and interest  payments of $28,546,  and matures on
January 26, 2003. In connection with the refinancing, the Partnership negotiated
a  discounted  payoff of the prior  mortgage  note that  resulted  in a $269,596
extraordinary  gain on  extinguishment  of  debt.  The  remainder  of the  prior
mortgage note balance has been placed in escrow pending negotiations  concerning
the amount of the payoff of the prior  mortgage  note.  Cash  proceeds  from the
refinancing transaction are as follows:

       Existing debt retired......................           (3,524,225)
                                                            -----------

       Proceeds from refinancing..................         $    475,775
                                                            ===========

The  Partnership  incurred  $154,007 of deferred  borrowing costs related to the
refinancing of the Spanish Oaks mortgage note. The Partnership was also required
to fund $165,291 into various escrows for property taxes,  hazard  insurance and
deferred maintenance.

NOTE 6.
- -------

On March 31, 1996, a fire  destroyed or damaged 16 units and 2 laundry  rooms at
Regency  Park  Apartments.  The  estimated  cost to  repair  the fire  damage is
$530,148. The Partnership's insurance carrier will reimburse the Partnership for
all costs incurred as a result of the fire less a $10,000 deductible. A deferred
involuntary  conversion gain of $365,851 has been recorded on the  Partnership's
June 30, 1996 Balance Sheet. The deferred involuntary conversion gain equals the
insurance proceeds  receivable less the adjusted basis of the property destroyed
or  damaged  by the  fire.  The  deferred  involuntary  conversion  gain will be
recognized  as  the  insurance  proceeds  are  received.  Reconstruction  of the
destroyed or damaged units will likely be completed  during the third quarter of
1996.

NOTE 7.
- -------

In 1996, the  Partnership  adopted the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board's
Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  121,  "Accounting  for the
Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed Of."
This statement  requires the cessation of  depreciation on assets held for sale.
Since  Parkway  Plaza is  currently  classified  as an asset  held for sale,  no
depreciation charges on Parkway Plaza have been incurred in 1996.

NOTE 8.
- -------

The  Partnership  filed claims with the United States  Bankruptcy  Court for the
Northern  District of Texas,  Dallas Division (the  "Bankruptcy  Court") against
Southmark for damages relating to improper  overcharges,  breach of contract and
breach of fiduciary duty. The Partnership settled these claims in 1991, and such
settlement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

<PAGE>
An Order Granting  Motion to Distribute  Funds to Class 8 Claimants  dated April
14, 1995 was issued by the Bankruptcy  Court.  In accordance  with the Order, in
May 1995, the Partnership  received in full satisfaction of its claims,  $69,234
in cash, and common and preferred stock in the reorganized  Southmark.  The cash
and  stock  represent  the  Partnership's  pro-rata  share of  Southmark  assets
available for Class 8 Claimants.  The Partnership  sold the Southmark common and
preferred  stock in May 1995 for  $22,283  which,  when  combined  with the cash
proceeds  from  Southmark,  resulted in a gain on  settlement  of  litigation of
$91,517.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
- -------  ---------------------------------------------------------------
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
         ---------------------

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

The  Partnership  was formed to  acquire,  operate and  ultimately  dispose of a
portfolio of income-producing real properties. At June 30, 1996, the Partnership
owned seven apartment properties, one office building and four shopping centers.
All of the Partnership's  properties are subject to mortgage notes. On September
14,  1995,  the  Partnership  sold  The  Courts  Apartments  to an  unaffiliated
purchaser. The Partnership recognized a $3,183,698 gain on the disposition. Cash
proceeds to the Partnership amounted to $1,289,572.

The Partnership is marketing one of its properties,  Parkway Plaza,  for sale. A
previously  reported sales contract  between the  Partnership  and a prospective
purchaser  that  was  expected  to  close in June  1996  was  terminated  by the
prospective  purchaser.  The Partnership is seeking other bids for the property.
There can be no  assurance  that a sale of  Parkway  Plaza  will be  consummated
before foreclosure  proceedings are initiated by the holder of the Parkway Plaza
mortgage note.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

The Partnership  reported net income of $44,815 and $330,149 for the three month
and six month  periods  ended June 30, 1996.  Included in the net income for the
six month period is a $269,596 extraordinary gain relating to the refinancing of
the Spanish Oaks mortgage note. Excluding the extraordinary item, net income for
the three month and six month  periods  improved  $181,660 and $439,320 over the
net losses reported for the comparable year-earlier periods.

Revenues:

Rental revenue decreased  $291,958 or 6.7% for the second quarter as compared to
the second quarter of 1995. Year-to-date,  rental revenue has decreased $681,520
or 7.8% as compared  to  year-to-date  rental  revenues  at June 30,  1995.  The
decrease in rental  revenue is primarily due to the  September  1995 sale of The
Courts Apartments.  The Courts Apartments accounted for $464,595 and $921,702 of
the Partnership's rental revenue for the three month and six month periods ended
June 30, 1995.  After  excluding  the effects of rental  revenue from The Courts
Apartments,  the  Partnership  recorded a $240,182  or 3.1%  increase  in rental
revenues at its properties.




<PAGE>
Rental  revenue  increased  at  six  of  the  Partnership's  twelve  properties:
Coppermill Apartments,  Orchard Apartments,  Quail Meadows Apartments,  La Plaza
Office Building, Iberia Plaza and Parkway Plaza. All six properties were able to
increase both base rental rates and occupancy rates. Year-to-date rental revenue
was unchanged at Sandpiper Apartments and Spanish Oaks Apartments. The remainder
of  the  Partnership's   properties  reported  decreased  rental  revenue.   The
Partnership increased rental rates at Briarwood Apartments, but the increase was
more than  offset by a  decrease  in  Briarwood's  occupancy  rate.  Part of the
increased  rental losses at Regency Park  Apartments is due to the March 31 fire
at the  property  that  destroyed  16 units.  Lakeview  Plaza  reported  a large
increase  in rental  losses  because of two tenants  who  vacated  their  leases
earlier this year.  Tenants at Cave Spring  Corners are  increasing  the expense
reimbursements they are paying to the Partnership, but base rental rates and the
average occupancy rate decreased.

Expenses:

Partnership  expenses decreased $572,762 or 12.5% for the second quarter 1996 as
compared  to the  second  quarter  of  1995.  Year-to-date,  expenses  decreased
$1,199,967  or 13.0% as compared  to  year-to-date  expenses  at June 30,  1995.
Included in 1995  expenses  are  $1,102,886  of  expenses  related to The Courts
Apartments which was sold in September 1995. Excluding expenses  attributable to
The Courts  Apartments,  expenses  decreased  $97,491 or 1.2% for the six months
ended  June  30,  1996 as  compared  to the six  months  ended  June  30,  1995.
Significant  increases in expense items  included  increased  property taxes and
general and administrative  expenses.  These increases were offset by a decrease
in general and administrative expenses paid to affiliates.

Excluding  property taxes  attributable to The Courts  Apartments,  property tax
expense  increased  $41,627 or 8.3% for the first six months of 1996 compared to
the same period of 1995.  Most of the  Partnership's  properties  incurred small
increases  in  property  tax   assessments.   The  exception  was  Spanish  Oaks
Apartments.  Property  taxes at Spanish Oaks were unusually low in 1995 due to a
refund of 1992 property  taxes received  during the first quarter of 1995.  1996
property taxes for Spanish Oaks returned to customary levels.

General  and  administrative  expenses  for 1996  increased  $26,290 or 33% over
general and administrative  expenses incurred in 1995. The Partnership  incurred
$19,555 of expenses to defend class action  litigation.  No such  expenses  were
incurred during the first six months of 1995.

General and  administrative-affiliates  expense decreased $93,833 or 28% for the
first six  months of 1996.  The  decrease  represents  both a  reduction  in the
Partnership's share of such expenses,  due to the sale of The Courts Apartments,
and a  reduction  in the level of such  expenses  charged by  affiliates  of the
General Partner to the Partnership and to other partnerships affiliated with the
General Partner.












<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

Cash  flow  provided  by  operating  activities  decreased  to  $1,719,031  from
$2,686,850  for the  first  six  months  of 1996.  Cash  received  from  tenants
decreased $641,331 or 7.4% principally due to the sale of The Courts Apartments.
Despite the sale of The Courts Apartments, cash paid to suppliers increased 7.7%
because of increased general and administrative expenses and the initial funding
of two escrow  accounts  associated  with the  refinancing  of the Spanish  Oaks
mortgage note.  The  refinancing of the Spanish Oaks mortgage note also accounts
for much of the  $266,949  increase in  property  taxes paid and  escrowed.  The
Partnership  was required to fund an escrow account for  the payment of property
taxes for Spanish Oaks  Apartments;  no such escrow  account was required  under
terms of the previous mortgage note.

Although additions to real estate investments increased approximately $80,000 in
the first six months of 1996 compared to 1995,  for all of 1996 the  Partnership
expects to decrease its capital expenditures to a budgeted $1.3 million compared
to $2.9 million expended in 1995.

Cash flows from financing activities increased $760,329 for the first six months
of 1996 compared to the first six months of 1995. The refinancing of the Spanish
Oaks mortgage note provided a one-time  $475,775  increase to the  Partnership's
cash flows.  The  refinancing  also  required  the  expenditure  of $112,241 for
deferred borrowing costs.

Short-term liquidity:

At June 30, 1996, the Partnership held cash reserves of $2,636,882,  an increase
of  $823,288  from  the  balance  at  the  end of  1995.  Cash  reserves  of the
Partnership  have increased  significantly  from depressed  levels at the end of
1994.  The  General  Partner  is  continuing  to  take  steps  to  increase  the
Partnership's  liquidity.  Some of these steps are  discussed  in the  following
paragraphs.

In addition to the sale of The Courts  Apartments in September 1995, the General
Partner has placed  Parkway  Plaza on the market for sale.  The General  Partner
believes  that the  appreciation  potential of Parkway  Plaza is limited,  while
extensive  capital  improvement  funds will be required  to  maintain  cash from
operations at current levels. The previously reported sales contract for Parkway
Plaza was terminated by the  prospective  purchaser.  The Parkway Plaza mortgage
note matured on August 1, 1996. Although the holder of the mortgage note has not
yet  commenced  foreclosure   proceedings,   foreclosure  proceedings  could  be
commenced  if the  Partnership  is  unable  to sell the  property  or to  obtain
suitable financing for the property.

Over the past three years,  the  Partnership has invested large amounts of funds
in capital  improvements at the Partnership's  properties.  Although significant
challenges remain,  total budgeted capital expenditures for 1996 are expected to
decrease to $1.3 million in 1996. For the balance of 1996,  the largest  capital
projects of the Partnership  will be concentrated at La Plaza Office Building as
the property  undergoes  refurbishment to allow it to take advantage of a strong
Las Vegas market.






<PAGE>
As a further source of funds,  the  Partnership  may obtain  secondary  mortgage
financing from an affiliated  partnership  secured by La Plaza Office  Building.
Placing a second  lien on La Plaza  would  require  the  approval of the current
first lien  holder,  and must also comply with loan  criteria of the  affiliated
partnership.  Proceeds  from such a mortgage loan could range from $1 million to
$1.5  million,  if  approvals  are  obtained  from the first lien holder and the
affiliated partnership.

Beginning  in  March,   the   Partnership   resumed   payment  of   reimbursable
administrative  expenses to affiliates of the General Partner. Such payments had
been  suspended  since the  beginning of 1994.  The General  Partner  expects to
resume  MID  payments  in 1996,  if the  Partnership  continues  to  perform  as
anticipated.  MID incurred but not paid for the first six months of 1996 totaled
$522,159.

The General Partner has established a revolving credit  facility,  not to exceed
$5,000,000  in  the  aggregate,  which  will  be  available  on  a  "first-come,
first-served"  basis to the  Partnership  and other  affiliated  partnerships if
certain  conditions are met.  Borrowings  under the facility may be used to fund
deferred maintenance,  refinancing  obligations and working capital needs. There
is no assurance  that the  Partnership  will receive any funds from the facility
because no amount will be reserved for any  particular  partnership.  As of June
30, 1996,  $4,082,159  remained  available  for  borrowing  under the  facility;
however,  additional  funds could become available as other  partnerships  repay
existing borrowings. This commitment expires on October 9, 1996.

Long-term liquidity:

For the long-term,  property operations will remain the primary source of funds.
In this  regard,  the General  Partner  expects that the $9.1 million of capital
improvements  made by the  Partnership  during the past  three  years will yield
improved cash flow from  property  operations  in the future.  Furthermore,  the
General Partner has budgeted $1.3 million of capital  improvements  for 1996. If
the  Partnership's  cash  position  deteriorates  due to  reverses  in  property
operations,  failure to sell  properties  currently held for sale, or failure to
obtain  refinancing  or  secondary  financing as  discussed  above,  the General
Partner may elect to defer  certain of the capital  improvements,  except  where
such improvements are expected to increase the  competitiveness or marketability
of the Partnership's properties.

As a further  source of liquidity,  the General  Partner may, from time to time,
attempt  to sell  Partnership  properties  judged to be mature  considering  the
circumstances  of the market where the  properties  are located,  as well as the
Partnership's  need for liquidity.  However,  there can be no guarantee that the
Partnership will be able to sell any of its properties for an amount  sufficient
to retire the  related  mortgage  note and still  provide  cash  proceeds to the
Partnership,  or that such cash  proceeds  could be timed to  coincide  with the
liquidity  needs  of the  Partnership.  Currently,  Parkway  Plaza  is the  only
Partnership property being marketed for sale.










<PAGE>
Income Allocations and Distributions:

Terms  of  the  Amended   Partnership   Agreement  specify  that  income  before
depreciation  is allocated  to the General  Partner to the extent of MID paid in
cash. Depreciation is allocated in the ratio of 95:5 to the limited partners and
the General Partner,  respectively.  Therefore,  for the six month periods ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995, $16,507 and ($18,983),  respectively,  were allocated to
the General  Partner.  The limited partners  received  allocations of net income
(loss) of $313,642  and  $(359,829)  for the six months  ended June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively.

With the exception of the MID,  distributions  to partners  have been  suspended
since 1986 as part of the General Partner's policy of maintaining  adequate cash
reserves.   Distributions   to  Unit  holders  will  remain  suspended  for  the
foreseeable  future.  Payments of MID have been suspended since the beginning of
1994. The General Partner will continue to monitor the cash reserves and working
capital  needs of the  Partnership  to  determine  when cash flows will  support
payments of MID and distributions to the Unit holders.
