NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
(UNAUDITED)
GENERAL
Readers of this quarterly report should refer to the Partnership's
audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1995, which
are included in the Partnership's 1995 Annual Report, as certain footnote
disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in such
audited financial statements have been omitted from this report.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP
requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported or disclosed amount 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.
Certain amounts in the 1995 consolidated financial statements have
been reclassed to conform to the 1996 presentation.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 was adopted by the
Partnership on January 1, 1996.
TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Partnership, pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, is permitted
to engage in various transactions involving the Managing General Partner
and its affiliates including the reimbursement for salaries and salary-
related expenses of its employees, certain of its officers, and other
direct expenses relating to the administration of the Partnership and the
operation of the Partnership's investments. Fees and other expenses
required to be paid by the Partnership to the Managing General Partner and
their affiliates as of June 30, 1996 and for the six months ended June 30,
1996 and 1995 are as follows:

PLAZA/SEATTLE (BLANCHARD PLAZA)
The Blanchard Plaza investment property currently operates at a small
deficit. This deficit results from a modification of the property's
mortgage note which provides for an annual cash flow payment to the lender
which reduces the principal balance of the loan. The Partnership expects
to continue to utilize the remaining proceeds from the sale of the
Lynnhaven Mall to cover these operating deficits. The joint venture is
actively marketing the Blanchard Plaza office building for sale. There can
be no assurance that a sale of the property will occur. Also, it is
currently expected that any such sale would result in the return of only a
modest portion of the Partnership's original cash invested in the property.
The mortgage note was scheduled to mature December 1, 1995 and has since
been extended to December 1, 1996. In the event that a sale cannot be
consummated before such time, the joint venture would seek to further
extend the mortgage note or obtain other financing. Such extension or
alternative financing may require the use of Partnership funds to partially
pay down the outstanding balance of the mortgage loan. There can be no
assurance that the joint venture will be able to further extend, refinance
or obtain alternative financing for all or substantially all of the
mortgage loan when the debt matures. If such a refinancing or sale cannot
be achieved prior to such time, the lender may realize upon its security
and take title to the property. This action would result in a gain for
financial reporting and Federal income tax purposes with no corresponding
distributable proceeds.
The joint venture received notification from the General Services
Administration ("GSA"), a major tenant at the property, that it was due
approximately $423,000 in minimum rent credits relating to the alleged
overpayment of real estate taxes from 1989 to 1995. Although, the joint
venture disputed this claim, the GSA began offsetting its monthly rent
payments in January 1996 in an amount equal to 1/12 of the amount in
dispute. The joint venture filed an appeal with the General Services Board
of Contract Appeals. Subsequent to June 30, 1996, the joint venture
executed an agreement in settlement of this claim, whereby GSA is allowed
to withhold the settlement amount from rental payments in 1996. The joint
venture is bound by a confidentiality provision in the settlement agreement
which does not permit disclosure of the terms of the settlement; however,
the joint venture believes the settlement was in the best interest of the
joint venture and has reflected the portion of the settlement relating to
the first six months of 1996 in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.
ADJUSTMENTS
In the opinion of the Managing General Partner, all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation have been made to the accompanying figures as of June 30, 1996
and for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 (assuming the
Partnership continues as a going concern).
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Reference is made to the notes to the accompanying financial
statements for additional information concerning the Partnership's
investment.
During the second quarter some of the Limited Partners in the
Partnership received from an unaffiliated third party an unsolicited tender
offer to purchase up to 3,379 Interests in the Partnership at between $50
and $60 per Interest. The Partnership recommended against acceptance of
this offer on the basis that, among other things, the offer price was
inadequate. In June such offer expired with approximately 1,508 Interests
being purchased by such unaffiliated third party pursuant to such offer.
In addition, the Partnership has, from time to time, received inquires from
other third parties that may consider making offers for Interests,
including requests for the list of Limited Partners in the Partnership.
These inquiries are generally preliminary in nature. There is no assurance
that any other third party will commence an offer for Interests, the terms
of any such offer or whether any such offer, if made, will be consummated,
amended or withdrawn. The board of directors of JMB Realty Corporation
("JMB") the managing general partner of the Partnership, has established a
special committee (the "Special Committee") consisting of certain directors
of JMB to deal with all matters relating to tender offers for Interests in
the Partnership, including any and all responses to such tender offers.
The Special Committee has retained independent counsel to advise it in
connection with any potential tender offers for Interests and has retained
Lehman Brothers Inc. as financial advisor to assist the Special Committee
in evaluating and responding to any additional potential tender offers for
Interests. Expenses incurred in connection with the previous tender offer
and additional potential tender offers for Interests are expected to
increase Partnership operating expenses in the third quarter.
At June 30, 1996, the Partnership and its consolidated venture had
cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,796,000. Such funds are
available for capital improvements, future distributions to partners,
payment of certain deferrals to affiliates of the General Partners and for
working capital requirements including operating deficits and the possible
paydown of the mortgage loan at the Blanchard Plaza office building.
There is substantial doubt about the Partnership's ability to continue
as a going concern due to the mortgage indebtedness secured by the
Partnership's final remaining property maturing in December 1996.
After reviewing Blanchard Plaza and the marketplace in which it
operates, the General Partners of the Partnership expect to liquidate this
asset as quickly as practicable. Therefore, the affairs of the Partnership
are expected to be wound up no later than 1999 (sooner if the Blanchard
Plaza property is sold or disposed of in the nearer term), barring
unforeseen economic developments.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The decrease in cash and cash equivalents and corresponding decrease
in current portion of long-term debt at June 30, 1996 as compared to
December 31, 1995 is primarily due to a principal payment of annual net
cash flow (as defined) for the Blanchard Plaza investment property in the
amount of $255,800, which was paid in March 1996. Also contributing to the
decrease in cash and cash equivalents was the payment of a distribution to
the limited partners in the amount of $1,928,300 in May 1996.
The increase in interest, rents and other receivables at June 30, 1996
as compared to December 31, 1995 is primarily due to the timing of
collections at the Blanchard Plaza investment property and the Blanchard
Plaza investment property accruing the monthly rent offsets taken by its
major tenant (GSA) in conjunction with the settlement of GSA's claim as
described in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The decrease in rental income for the three and six months ended June
30, 1996 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 is
primarily due to lower average occupancy and to the Partnership recognizing
rental income for certain major tenant leases at the Blanchard Plaza
investment property over the life of the lease rather than as due per the
terms of their respective leases. Also contributing to the decrease in
rental income is the settlement of GSA's claim, under which GSA was allowed
to withhold a portion of its 1996 rental payments for the alleged
overpayment of real estate taxes for the period 1989 through 1995.
The increase in general and administrative expenses for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995 is
primarily due to the Partnership engaging independent third parties to
perform certain administrative services for the Partnership beginning in
October 1995.
The decrease in Partnership's share of loss from operations of
unconsolidated venture for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 as
compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 is due to the
disposition of the unconsolidated venture property due to the lender
realizing upon its security for its non-recourse loan related to the Town
and Country Center investment property in December 1995.
