Item 1.  Description of Business.

Development.

         Winthrop Residential Associates II ("WRA II"), was originally
organized under the Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Maryland
on October 21, 1981, for the purpose of investing, as a limited partner, in
other limited partnerships which would develop, manage, own, operate and
otherwise deal with apartment complexes, the financing of which are assisted
by federal, state or local government agencies ("Local Limited Partnerships")
pursuant to programs which do not significantly restrict distributions to
owners or the rates of return on investments in such properties. On June 23,
1983, WRA II elected to comply with and be governed by the Maryland Revised
Uniform Limited Partnership Act (the "Act") and filed its Agreement and
Certificate of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") with the
Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation. In accordance with and
upon filing its Certificate of Limited Partnership pursuant to the Act, WRA II
changed its name to Winthrop Residential Associates II, A Limited Partnership
(the "Partnership").

         The general partners of the Partnership are One Winthrop Properties,
Inc., a Massachusetts corporation ("One Winthrop"), and Linnaeus-Hawthorne
Associates Limited Partnership ("Linnaeus-Hawthorne"). One Winthrop is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of First Winthrop Corporation ("First Winthrop"),
which in turn is wholly-owned by Winthrop Financial Associates, A Limited
Partnership ("WFA"), a Maryland public limited partnership. One Winthrop is
the Partnership's managing general partner. See "Change in Control."

         In late 1982 the Partnership sold, pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-11 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
25,000 Units of limited partnership interest ("Units") at a purchase price of
$1,000 per Unit (an aggregate of $25,000,000). Capital contributions, net of
selling commissions, sales and registration costs, were utilized to purchase
interests in 10 Local Limited Partnerships and temporary short term
investments.

         The Partnership invests as a limited partner in Local Limited
Partnerships that own, operate and otherwise deal with apartment complexes
with original financing insured by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development ("HUD").


                                      2

<PAGE>

         Initially, the Partnership acquired equity interests ranging from
52.8% to 99% in ten Local Limited Partnerships, owning 12 properties, for an
aggregate investment, including capitalizable and noncapitalizable fees and
expenses, of approximately $21,669,334. One of the Partnership's properties

was sold in 1986. See "Item 2, Description of Properties" for information
relating to these properties.

         In November 1997, the Partnership sold its interest in Westbury
Springs, L.P., a Local Limited Partnership, to an affiliate of the general
partner of the Local Limited Partnership for $1,447,000. It is expected that
the Partnership will distribute these proceeds during the first half of 1998.

Defaults

         The Partnership holds limited partnership interests in Local Limited
Partnerships which own apartment properties, all of which were originally
financed with HUD-insured first mortgages. If a Local Limited Partnership
defaults on a HUD-insured mortgage, the mortgagee can assign the defaulted
mortgage to HUD and recover the principal owed on its first mortgage from HUD.
HUD, in its discretion, may then either (i) negotiate a workout agreement with
the Local Limited Partnership, (ii) sell the mortgage, or (iii) pursue its
right to transfer the ownership of the property from the Local Limited
Partnership to HUD through a foreclosure action. The objective of a workout
agreement between an owner and HUD is to secure HUD's sanction of a plan
which, over time, will cure any mortgage delinquencies. While a workout
agreement is effective and its terms are being met, HUD agrees not to pursue
any remedies available to it as a result of the default.

         In March 1987, the Local Limited Partnership owning Southwest Parkway
defaulted on its mortgage. Over time, the Local Limited Partnership submitted
various proposals to HUD to cure the mortgage default, all of which had been
rejected. The Partnership was notified that this mortgage would be included in
an auction. In August 1996, the Local Limited Partnership owning Southwest
Parkway Apartments ("Southwest Parkway"), in an effort to avoid a foreclosure
of the property, filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter
11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. In November 1996, Southwest Parkway
filed its Bankruptcy Plan which was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court in
January 1997. The plan included the payment to the lender of $4,100,000 as
full satisfaction of the outstanding indebtedness. In order to effect this
transaction, the Partnership invested an additional $1,799,000 in Southwest
Parkway as a capital contribution and Southwest Parkway obtained a new first
mortgage loan in the amount of $2,200,000. As a result of this transaction,
the Partnership recognized an extraordinary gain of 


                                      3

<PAGE>

$2,698,000 on extinguishment of debt in 1997. See "Item 2, Description of
Properties" for information with respect to the origination of funds used to
satisfy the outstanding indebtedness.

         In April 1995, the Local Limited Partnership owning Sanford Landing
negotiated a workout agreement with HUD pursuant to which the interest rate on
the debt was reduced so that the debt service payments are at a serviceable
level based on the property's current cash flow. In addition, a portion of the
mortgage was reassigned to the original mortgagee. The remaining balance

continues to be held by HUD.

Change in Control

         On July 18, 1995 Londonderry Acquisition II Limited Partnership
("Londonderry II"), a Delaware limited partnership, and affiliate of Apollo
Real Estate Advisors, L.P. ("Apollo"), acquired, among other things, a general
partner interest in W.L. Realty, L.P. ("W.L. Realty") and a sixty four percent
(64%) limited partnership interest in W.L. Realty, and the general partnership
interest in Linnaeus-Hampshire. As a result of the foregoing acquisitions,
Londonderry II is the sole general partner of W.L. Realty which is the sole
general partner of Linnaeus, which in turn is the sole general partner of WFA.
As a result of the foregoing, effective July 18, 1995, Londonderry II, an
affiliate of Apollo, became the controlling entity of the General Partners. In
connection with the transfer of control, the officers and directors of One
Winthrop resigned and Londonderry II appointed new officers and directors. See
Item 9, "Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons;
Compliance With Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

Employees

         The Partnership does not have any employees. Until December 16, 1997,
Services were performed for the Partnership by the Managing General Partner,
and agents retained by it, including Winthrop Management, an affiliate of the
Managing General Partner. On October 28, 1997, affiliates of the Managing
General Partner and Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") entered into
an agreement pursuant to which, among other things, an affiliate of Insignia
was to be retained as the property manager at the Local Limited Partnership
properties then managed by Winthrop Management. This transfer of property
management was subject to certain conditions including HUD approval. As of
March 1, 1998, HUD approval had been obtained with respect to Southwest
Parkway. The remaining Local Limited Partnerships properties are managed by
the Local Limited Partnerships' respective general partners.

         On December 16, 1997, the Managing General Partner and certain of its
affiliates entered into a Services Agreement with Coordinated Services of
Valdosta, LLC ("Coordinated Services") pursuant to which Coordinated Services
was retained to provide asset management and investor services to the
Partnership and certain affiliated partnerships. As a result of this
agreement, Coordinated Services has the right to direct the day to day affairs
of the Partnership, including, without limitation, reviewing and analyzing
potential sale, refinancing or restructuring proposals by Local Limited
Partnerships, preparation of all Partnership reports, maintaining Partnership
records and maintaining bank accounts of the Partnership. Coordinated Services
is not permitted, however, without the consent of the Managing General
Partner, or as otherwise required under the terms of the Partnership's
Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") to, among other
things, cause the Partnership to consent to a sale of an asset or cause the

Partnership to file for bankruptcy. As compensation for providing these
services, the Managing General Partner and its affiliates assigned to
Coordinated Services all of their right to receive fees from the Partnership
as provided in the Partnership Agreement. See "Item 12. Certain Relationships 
and Related Transactions."

Item 2.  Description of Properties.

         The Partnership has invested in Local Limited Partnerships which own
properties located in diverse markets with respect to both the amount and
nature of competition affecting the properties. Some of the rental markets
first became overbuilt during the mid-1980's. Supply of apartments available
for rent began to exceed demand and consumers became very price sensitive. In
order to attract tenants, certain properties were required to maintain rental
rates rather than increase them to meet increasing costs. As a result, these
properties were forced to defer maintenance and replacements which were
necessary to attract tenants, thus exacerbating the competitive forces at work
in these markets.

(1)  Loan at maturity is fully amortized.

         In connection with the Bankruptcy of the Local Limited Partnership
which owns Southwest Parkway Apartments, on January 27, 1997 the Local Limited
Partnership obtained a new first mortgage loan in the principal amount of
$2,200,000. The loan bears interest at a rate of 8.75%, is amortized over a 30
year period and matures on February 1, 2007. The Local Limited Partnership
paid approximately $100,000 in transactional costs.

         In order to obtain the remaining $2,000,000 needed by the Local
Limited Partnership to satisfy the then existing debt on the property pursuant
to the Bankruptcy Plan, the Partnership made a capital contribution of
approximately $1,799,000 and the balance was funded from the Local Limited

Partnership's cash reserves.

         In November 1997, the Partnership sold its interest in Westbury
Springs, L.P., a Local Limited Partnership, to an affiliate of the general
partner of the Local Limited Partnership for $1,447,000. As a result of the
Partnership's investment account having a zero balance at the date of sale,
the Partnership recognized a gain on sale of $1,447,000. It is expected that
the Partnership will distribute these proceeds during the first half of 1998.

Item 5.  Market for the Registrant's Common Stock and Related
         Stockholder Matters.

         The Partnership is a partnership and thus has no common stock. There
is no active market for the Units. Trading in the Units is sporadic and occurs
solely through private transactions.

         As of March 1, 1998, there were 2,596 holders of 25,010 outstanding
Units.

         The Partnership Agreement requires that if the Partnership has Cash
Available for Distribution, it be distributed quarterly to the Partners in
specified proportions. The Partnership Agreement defines Cash Available for
Distribution as Cash Flow less cash designated by the Managing General Partner
to be held for restoration or creation of reserves. Cash Flow, in turn, is
defined as cash derived from the Local Limited Partnerships (but excluding
sale or refinancing proceeds) and all cash derived from Partnership
operations, less cash used to pay operating expenses of the Partnership. For
the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, cash distributions paid or accrued
to the Investor Limited Partners as a group totaled $1,601,000 and $850,000.

Item 6.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

         The matters discussed in this Form 10-KSB contain certain
forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties (including
changing market conditions, competitive and regulatory matters, etc.) detailed
in the disclosure contained in this Form 10-KSB and the other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Partnership from time to time.
The discussion of the Partnership's business and results of operations,
including forward-looking statements pertaining to such matters, does not take
into account the effects of any changes to the Partnership's business and
results of operation. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from
those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of
factors, including those identified herein.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership retained an equity interest
in seven Local Limited Partnerships owning nine apartment properties. The
Partnership also owns a 99% limited partnership interest in Southwest Parkway
Ltd. ("Southwest Parkway"). An affiliate of the general partners of the
Partnership is the general partner of Southwest Parkway. In conjunction with
the substantial investment made by the Partnership, in January 1997, in

Southwest Parkway (which had been accounted for as another Local Limited
Partnership under the equity method), the financial statements of the
Partnership and Southwest Parkway have been consolidated since January 1,
1997. The Partnership's primary sources of income are distributions from the
Local Limited Partnerships and rental income from Southwest Parkway. The
Partnership requires cash to pay the operating expenses of Southwest Parkway,
management fees, general and administrative expenses or to make capital
contributions, or loans, to any of the Local Limited Partnerships which the
Managing General Partner deems to be in the Partnership's best interest to
preserve its ownership interest.

         Southwest Parkway in an effort to avoid foreclosure and retain
control of the property, filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code (see Item 7, "Financial Statements" - Note 7).
Southwest Parkway negotiated an agreement for a settlement with its lender
that was approved by the Bankruptcy Court as part of the confirmation of the
plan of reorganization in January 1997. The agreement, which was closed in
January 1997, allowed Southwest Parkway to purchase its debt for $4,100,000
and retain ownership of the property. In conjunction with the purchase of the
debt, the Partnership invested approximately $1,799,000 in Southwest Parkway
as a 


                                      11
<PAGE>


capital contribution. Southwest Parkway obtained a new first mortgage in the
amount of $2,200,000. The new mortgage bears interest of 8.75% per annum and
matures on February 1, 2007, with a balloon payment of approximately
$1,898,000.

         To date, all cash requirements have been satisfied by interest income
earned on short-term investments, rental income from Southwest Parkway and
cash distributed to the Partnership by the Local Limited Partnerships. If the
Partnership funds any operating deficits, it will use monies from its
operating reserves. The Managing General Partner's current policy is to
maintain a reserve balance sufficient to provide the Partnership the
flexibility to preserve its economic interest in the Local Limited
Partnerships.

         During November 1997, the Partnership sold its interest in Westbury
Springs, L.P. ("Westbury Springs"), a Local Limited Partnership to an
affiliate of the general partner of the Local Limited Partnership for
$1,447,000. The Partnership recognized a $1,447,000 gain on sale, as a result
of the Partnership's investment account having a zero balance at the date of
sale. The Partnership distributed these proceeds to the limited partners in
February 1998.

         The level of liquidity based on cash and cash equivalents experienced
an $85,000 increase at December 31, 1997, as compared to December 31, 1996. The
Partnership's $298,000 of cash provided by operating activities and $2,045,000
of cash from investing activities was significantly offset by $2,258,000 of
cash used in financing activities. Cash from investing activities included

$1,447,000 of proceeds from the Partnership's sale of its interest in Westbury
Springs. Financing activities consisted of the satisfaction of a mortgage
payable of $4,148,000, mortgage principal payments of $17,000, cash
distributed to partners of $211,000 and payment of deferred loan costs of
$82,000, which were only partially offset by loan proceeds of $2,200,000.

         On December 16, 1997, the Managing General Partner and certain of its
affiliates entered into a Services Agreement with Coordinated Services of
Valdosta, LLC ("Coordinated Services") pursuant to which Coordinated Services
was retained to provide asset management and investor services to the
Partnership and certain affiliated partnerships. As a result of this
agreement, Coordinated Services has the right to direct the day to day affairs
of the Partnership, including, without limitation, reviewing and analyzing
potential sale, refinancing or restructuring proposals by Local Limited
Partnerships, preparation of all Partnership reports, maintaining Partnership
records and maintaining bank accounts of the Partnership. 


                                      12

<PAGE>


Coordinated Services is not permitted, however, without the consent of the
Managing General Partner, or as otherwise required under the terms of the
Partnership's Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement")
to, among other things, cause the Partnership to consent to a sale of an asset
or cause the Partnership to file for bankruptcy. As compensation for providing
these services, the Managing General Partner and its affiliates assigned to
Coordinated Services all of their rights to receive fees from the Partnership
as provided in the Partnership Agreement.

         The Partnership is not obligated to provide any additional funds to
the Local Limited Partnerships to fund operating deficits. The Partnership
will determine on a case by case basis whether to fund any operating deficits.
If a Local Limited Partnership sustains continuing operating deficits and has
no other sources of funding, it is likely that it will eventually default on
its mortgage obligations and risk a foreclosure on its property by the lender.
If a foreclosure were to occur, the Local Limited Partnership would lose its
investment in the property and would incur a tax liability due to the
recapture of tax benefits taken in prior years. The Partnership would share in
these consequences in proportion to its ownership interest in the Local
Limited Partnership.

         The Partnership is contemplating investing an additional $100,000 to
$150,000 to be used for capital improvements in the Local Limited Partnership
owning Brookside Apartments ("Brookside"). The Partnership is currently
negotiating with the general partner of the Local Limited Partnership which
holds title to Brookside pursuant to which an affiliate of the general partner
of the Partnership would be appointed as general partner of the Brookside
Local Limited Partnership and an affiliate of Coordinated Services would
assume responsibility for managing Brookside. Such transfer would be subject
to the approval of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.


         For the year ended December 31, 1997, Partnership distributions (paid
or accrued) aggregated $1,601,000 ($64.01 per unit) to its limited partners
and $9,000 to the general partners of which $1,447,000 relates to the sale of
the Partnership's interest in Westbury Springs. The ability of the Partnership
to continue to make distributions to its partners is dependent upon the
financial performance of the Local Limited Partnerships and Southwest Parkway.

         The Partnership is dependent upon Coordinated Services and the
management agents of the Local Limited Partnerships for management and
administrative services. Coordinated Services has completed an assessment and
believes that its computer systems


                                      13

<PAGE>


will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter
(the "Year 2000 Issue"). The Partnership does not expect that it will incur
any material costs associated with, or be materially affected by, the Year
2000 Issue.

Results of Operations

         The Partnership's net income for the year ended December 31, 1997,
was $4,157,000, as compared to net income of $1,871,000, for the year ended
December 31, 1996. Net income for 1997 includes a $2,698,000 extraordinary
gain on extinguishment of debt from Southwest Parkway and a $1,447,000 gain on
the sale of the Partnership's interest in the Westbury Springs Local Limited
Partnership. Excluding Southwest Parkway (which was consolidated in 1997) and
the gain on sale, the Partnerships net income declined by $1,639,000 primarily
due to a decline in cash distributions from Local Limited Partnerships.

         In 1997, Local Limited Partnerships owning Honeywood and Crofton
Village Apartments made cash distributions to the Partnership of $261,000 and
$89,000, respectively, as compared to $1,969,000 (Honeywood $71,000, First
Investment Limited Partnership IX $225,000 and Crofton Village Apartments of
$1,673,000, which includes $1,391,000 of refinancing proceeds distributed
during the third quarter of 1996), in the prior comparative period.

                         Independent Auditors' Report

To the Partners
Winthrop Residential Associates II, A Limited Partnership
Boston, Massachusetts

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Winthrop
Residential Associates II, A Limited Partnership (a Maryland limited
partnership), and its subsidiary as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the
related consolidated statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows
for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits. We did not audit the financial statements of the Local Limited
Partnerships, the investments in which are reflected in the accompanying
financial statements using the equity method of accounting and were written
down to zero (see Note 1). Those statements were audited by other auditors
whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it
relates to the amounts included for those Local Limited Partnerships, is based
solely on the reports of other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on
a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits and the reports of other auditors provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the
consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Winthrop Residential Associates
II, A Limited Partnership, and its subsidiary as of December 31, 1997 and
1996, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996

1.   ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

         Winthrop Residential Associates II, A Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") was organized on October 21, 1981 under the Uniform Limited
Partnership Act of the State of Maryland to invest in limited partnerships
(the "Local Limited Partnerships") which develop, manage, operate and
otherwise deal in government assisted apartment complexes and which do not
significantly restrict distributions to owners or the rate of return on
investments in such properties. The Partnership has investments in eight Local
Limited Partnerships owning ten apartment complexes located throughout the
United States.

         The Partnership was capitalized with $25,000,000 of contributions
representing 25,000 investor limited partnership units. The offering closed on
November 17, 1982. The general partners and the initial limited partner (10
units) contributed $12,000.

Consolidation

         In conjunction with the January 1997 significant new capital
contribution by the Partnership and substantive transfer of control of
Southwest Parkway Ltd., A Local Limited Partnership ("Southwest Parkway"), to
an affiliate of the Partnership's general partners, the accompanying financial
statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis, including the accounts
of Southwest Parkway, from the date of transfer of control. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Prior to January
1, 1997, Southwest Parkway was a Local Limited Partnership accounted for under
the equity method (see Note 7).

Cash and Cash Equivalents

         The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with an
original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash
equivalents. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates its
fair value due to its short term nature.

Uses of Estimates

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts in the 


                                     F-7

<PAGE>



financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

Real Estate

         Real estate is carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to Be Disposed Of", the Partnership records impairment losses for long-lived
assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the
undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the asset's carrying
amount. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the
asset to its carrying amount.

Depreciation

         Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful life of each class of asset, which ranges from 5 to 27.5
years.

Loan Costs

         At December 31, 1997, loan costs of $82,000 are included in other
assets in the accompanying balance sheet and are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over the life of the respective loan. At December 31,
1997, accumulated amortization totaled $7,000.

Investments in Local Limited Partnerships

         The Partnership accounts for its investment in each Local Limited
Partnership using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting,
the investment cost is subsequently adjusted by the Partnership's share of the
Local Limited Partnership's results of operations and by distributions
received. Costs relating to the acquisition and selection of the investment in
the Local Limited Partnerships are capitalized to the investment account and
amortized over the life of the investment. Costs in excess of the
Partnership's initial basis in the net assets of the Local Limited Partnership
are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets. Equity
in the loss of Local Limited Partnerships, amortization of investment costs
and costs in excess of initial basis are not recognized to the extent that the
investment balance would become negative, since the Partnership is not
obligated to advance funds to the Local Limited Partnerships.


                                     F-8

<PAGE>


Net Income Per Limited Partnership Unit

         Net income per limited partnership unit is computed by dividing net

income allocated to the limited partners by the 25,010 units outstanding.

Income Taxes

         Taxable income or loss of the Partnership is reported in the income
tax returns of its partners. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is
made in the financial statements of the Partnership.

Concentration of Credit Risk

         Principally all of the Partnership's cash and cash equivalents
consist of a mutual fund that invests in U.S. treasury bills and repurchase
agreements with original maturity dates of three months or less.

2.       ALLOCATION OF PROFITS, LOSSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS

         In accordance with the partnership agreement, profits and losses not
arising from a sale or refinancing and cash available for distribution are
allocated 5% to the general partners and 95% to the limited partners. Gains
and distributions of proceeds arising from a sale or refinancing are allocated
first to the limited partners to the extent of their Adjusted Capital
Contribution (as defined) and then in accordance with the partnership
agreement, however, the general partner is allocated at least 1% of the gain.
In the event that there is no cash to be distributed from a sale or
refinancing, gains are allocated 5%, to the general partners and 95%, to the
limited partners.

3.       TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

         One Winthrop Properties, Inc. ("One Winthrop" or the "Managing
General Partner") and WP Management Co., Inc. ("WP Management"), the manager
of the Partnership's investments in the Local Limited Partnerships, are wholly
owned subsidiaries of First Winthrop Corporation, which in turn is controlled
by Winthrop Financial Associates, A Limited Partnership ("WFA").

         On December 16, 1997, the Managing General Partner and certain of its
affiliates entered into a Services Agreement with Coordinated Services of
Valdosta, LLC ("Coordinated Services") pursuant to which Coordinated Services
was retained to provide asset management and investor services to the
Partnership and certain affiliated partnerships. As a result of this
agreement, Coordinated Services has the right to direct the day to day affairs
of the Partnership. Coordinated Services is not 


                                     F-9

<PAGE>


permitted, however, without the consent of the Managing General Partner, or as
otherwise required under the terms of the Partnership's Agreement of Limited
Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") to, among other things, cause the
Partnership to consent to a sale of an asset or cause the Partnership to file
for bankruptcy. As compensation for providing these services, the Managing

General Partner and its affiliates assigned to Coordinated Services all of
their rights to receive fees from the Partnership, as provided in the
Partnership Agreement.

         WP Management was entitled to a fee for services rendered in managing
the Partnership's investments in the Local Limited Partnerships equal to 10%
of the Partnership's share of cash distributions from operations of the Local
Limited Partnerships, not to exceed one half of 1% of the sum of (a) the
amount of the Partnership's aggregate total investment in all Local Limited
Partnerships, plus (b) the Partnership's allocable share of all liens and
mortgages secured by the projects of all Local Limited Partnerships. The fee
is noncumulative and commences at the closing of each Local Limited
Partnership's permanent loan. The minimum fee is $100,000 per annum. For the
years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, WP Management earned $100,000 and
$123,000, respectively, for managing the Partnership's investments in the
Local Limited Partnerships. The 1996 fee includes a $23,000 adjustment for
1995.

         Affiliates of Southwest Parkway were paid management fees, based on
5% of the gross receipts of the property, of approximately $46,000, during
1997. As of December 31, 1997, Southwest Parkway is obligated to its general
partner for an operating deficit loan payable of $501,000. The loan is
non-interest bearing. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner received a
fee of approximately $17,000, in connection with refinancing the Southwest
Parkway debt (see Note 7).

         During the liquidation stage of the Partnership, the general partners
and their affiliates are entitled to receive certain distributions,
subordinated to specified minimum returns to the limited partners as described
in the partnership agreement.

4.        REAL ESTATE

5.       SALE OF INTEREST

         During November 1997, the Partnership sold its interest in Westbury
Springs, L.P., a Local Limited Partnership, to an affiliate of the general
partner of the Local Limited Partnership for $1,447,000. The Partnership
recognized a $1,447,000 gain on sale, as a result of the Partnership's
investment account having a zero balance at the date of sale. The Partnership
distributed these proceeds to the limited partners in February 1998.

6.        MORTGAGE PAYABLE

         In January 1997, Southwest Parkway obtained a new first mortgage in
the amount of $2,200,000. The new mortgage bears interest at 8.75%, requires
monthly payments of approximately $18,000 and is being amortized over 27 1/2
years. The loan matures on February 1, 2007, with a balloon payment of
approximately $1,898,000. As specified in the loan agreement, Southwest
Parkway is required to make monthly payments of approximately $4,000 to a
replacement reserve account for future capital improvements. Total capitalized
loan costs were approximately $82,000. In connection with the discounted
payoff of the old mortgage, the Partnership recognized an extraordinary gain
of $2,698,000 on the extinguishment of debt (see Note 7).

     Principal payments on the mortgage note are due as follows:

       1998                           $             22,000
       1999                                         24,000

         In addition, the Partnership holds a 99% limited partnership interest
in Southwest Parkway, which was accounted for under the equity method as a
Local Limited Partnership, prior to January 1997.

         Southwest Parkway, in an effort to avoid foreclosure and retain
control of the property, filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code. Southwest Parkway negotiated an agreement for a
settlement with its lender that was approved by the Bankruptcy Court as part
of the confirmation of the plan of reorganization in January 1997. The
agreement, which was closed in January 1997, allowed Southwest Parkway to
purchase its debt for $4,100,000 and retain ownership of the property. In
conjunction with the purchase of the debt, the Partnership invested
approximately $1,799,000 in Southwest Parkway as a capital contribution. As of
December 31, 1996, $370,000 was reflected as an escrow deposit in
contemplation of the above settlement. Southwest Parkway obtained a new first
mortgage in the amount of $2,200,000 and recognized an extraordinary gain of
$2,698,000 on the extinguishment of debt.

Item 11. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and
         Management.

         (a)  Security ownership of certain beneficial owners.

         The General Partners own all the outstanding general partnership
interests. No person or group is known by the Partnership to be the beneficial
owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Units at December 31, 1997. Under the
Partnership Agreement, the voting rights of the Limited Partners are limited
and, in some circumstances, are subject to the prior receipt of certain
opinions of counsel or judicial decisions.


         Under the Partnership Agreement, the right to manage the business of
the Partnership is vested in the General Partners and is generally to be
exercised only by the Managing General Partner, although approval of Linnaeus
is required as to all investments in Local Limited Partnerships and in
connection with any votes or consents arising out of the ownership of a Local
Limited Partnership interest.

         (b) Security ownership of management.

         None of the officers, directors or general partners of the General
Partners or their respective officers, directors or general partners owned any
Units at December 31, 1997 in individual capacities; however, WFC Realty Co.,
Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of First Winthrop, (of which certain officers
and directors of the Managing General Partner are officers or directors) owns
95 units (.38%).

         (c) Changes in control.

         There exists no arrangement known to the Partnership the operation of
which may at a subsequent date result in a change in control of the
Partnership. On December 16, 1997, the Managing General Partner and certain of
its affiliates entered into a Services Agreement with Coordinated Services of
Valdosta, LLC ("Coordinated Services") pursuant to which Coordinated Services
was retained to provide asset management and investor services to the
Partnership and certain affiliated partnerships. As a result of this
agreement, Coordinated Services has the right to direct the day to day affairs
of the Partnership, including, without limitation, reviewing and analyzing
potential sale, refinancing or restructuring proposals by Local Limited
Partnerships, preparation of all Partnership reports, maintaining Partnership
records and maintaining bank accounts of the Partnership. Coordinated Services

Partner, or as otherwise required under the terms of the Partnership's
Agreement of Limited

Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") to, among other things, cause the
Partnership to consent to a sale of an asset or cause the Partnership to file
for bankruptcy. As compensation for providing these services, the Managing
General Partner and its affiliates assigned to Coordinated Services all of
their right to receive fees from the Partnership as provided in the
Partnership Agreement.

Item 12.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

         The General Partners and their affiliates are entitled to receive
various fees, commissions, cash distributions, allocations of taxable income
or loss and expense reimbursements from the Partnership. WP Management Co.,
Inc. ("WP Management"), an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, is
entitled to a fee for services rendered in managing the Partnership's

investments equal to 10% of the Partnership's share of cash distributions from
the Local Limited Partnerships, not to exceed 1/2 of 1% of the sum of (a) the
amount of the Partnership's aggregate total investment in all Local Limited
Partnerships, plus (b) the Partnership's allocable share of all liens and
mortgages secured by the projects of all Local Limited Partnerships. The fee
is noncumulative and commences at the closing of each Local Limited
Partnership's permanent loan. For the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
WP Management earned approximately $100,000 and $123,000, respectively.

         The Partnership's general partners are entitled to 5% of cash
available for distribution. The general partners received $9,214 and $18,428
of cash distributions in 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Partnerships (the "Agent Loans") in an amount necessary to pay the costs
associated with the preparation of the tax returns for those Partnerships in

authority to perform the necessary asset management and investor services
required to be performed hereunder for the Partnerships in which Winthrop
serves as a general partner (or limited partner to the extent Winthrop
possesses any special approval rights separate and apart from the other
limited partners of a Partnership), without any approval from Winthrop;
provided, however, Agent shall have no authority to perform the following
functions without the prior written approval of Winthrop:

of the Partnerships after Winthrop has given written notice to Agent that, in
the reasonable judgment of Winthrop, such future distributions will result in
an unacceptable amount of cash reserves available for future operations;
provided, however, that in any event a payment to Agent of the annual fee
shown on Schedule I shall not be affected.

                      In addition to the matters listed above, Winthrop shall
have the right, upon at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Agent, to
designate any additional action as an action that should require its prior
approval if, in its reasonable judgment, such designation is reasonably
necessary in order to permit Winthrop to carry out its fiduciary duty as a
general partner of a Partnership; provided Agent shall not be obligated to
increase its scope of services or liability under this Services Agreement,
nor decrease its compensation as a result thereof.

        2.4 Standard of Performance. In performing the services required to
be performed by it pursuant to this Services Agreement, Agent shall perform
such services in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations,
and in a manner that is consistent with all applicable provisions of the
partnership agreements of the Partnerships (and Agent shall take no action
with respect to any Partnership which cannot otherwise be taken by the
general partner or limited partner of any Partnership (the "Partner")), and,
subject to the provisions of and limitations set forth in Section 2.3, with
such care and in accordance with such standards of performance as would be

applied to a such Partner pursuant to the terms of any partnership agreement
if such Partner had performed such services directly.

        2.5 Servicer not a Partner. No provision of this Services Agreement
shall be construed as stating or implying that Agent is acting or
substituting for Winthrop as a Partner of any of the Partnerships, or that
Agent has assumed any fiduciary duty or fiduciary responsibility that
Winthrop, as a Partner of a Partnership, may have as to the Partnership.

        2.6 Power of Attorney. Upon the reasonable request of Agent and so
long as a power of attorney is necessary to consummate the action requested,
and, if required hereunder Winthrop has consented to such action, Winthrop
shall within ten (10) business days after written receipt of Agent's request,
deliver a power of attorney to enable Agent to act on behalf of Winthrop,
provided such action is consistent with the terms of this Services Agreement.

transferred to Agent hereunder, Agent hereby agrees to pay Winthrop Six
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000) in immediately available funds upon the

twenty-five thousand dollars ($125,000) within five (5) days after the

the rights, duties and obligations by Agent hereunder, Winthrop hereby
assigns to Agent all of its right, title and interest in and to the Asset

Operating Distributions and the Refinancing Distributions. Agent acknowledges
that Sale Distributions are not being assigned pursuant to the terms of this

appropriate Partnership's partnership agreement, with the exception of any
Sale Distributions attributable to Irvington and New Brunswick which shall be
paid to Agent.

the respective partnership agreement as third party loans of the Partnerships

Agreement, Agent Loans shall be repaid prior to the Existing Loans.

        3.4 Fees Nonrecourse. Agent acknowledges that the services to be
provided hereunder are for the benefit of the Partnerships and not Winthrop,
and therefore, Agent agrees to look solely to the net assets of each
Partnership for the payment of the Asset Management Fees, the Accrued Asset
Management Fees, the Reimbursements, the Operating Distributions, the
Refinancing Distributions, and the repayment of any Agent Loans, and not to
the assets of any other Partnership or Winthrop (except to the extent any

the terms of this Services Agreement are not paid to Agent), and further
agrees that any deficit capital account of a partner in a Partnership shall
not be deemed an asset of the Partnership. The provisions of this Section 3.4
shall not apply to the obligations of Winthrop under Section 6.3 below.

<PAGE>

30, 2008, Winthrop may elect to request Agent (or affiliate(s) of
Agents, as Agent shall direct) to acquire (including by way of a transfer of
control of a Winthrop entity) its general partnership in all of the
Partnerships in which Winthrop acts as the general partner for the purchase
price of one thousand dollars ($1,000) (the "Purchase Price"). Such request
shall be made by Winthrop by delivering notice to Agent indicating Winthrop's
request under this Section 6.1. Within sixty (60) days following receipt of
such request, if Agent elects to agree to Winthrop's request,: (a) Agent
shall cause the Purchase Price to be paid by check to Winthrop; and (b)
Winthrop shall (i) provide appropriate documentation evidencing the transfer
of the general partnership to Agent or its designee, and (ii) deliver to
Agent an absolute and unconditional assignment of its rights to provide the
services contemplated by this Services Agreement, together with the fees
associated therewith, without representation or warranty. Upon closing of the
aforementioned transaction, this Services Agreement shall terminate, and
neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except
those that expressly survive the termination of this Services Agreement. Upon
receipt of Winthrop's request, Agent may decline the same by written notice
to Winthrop within thirty (30) days. In such event, this Services Agreement
shall terminate fifteen (15) days after Agent's notice, and neither party
shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except those that
expressly survive the termination of this Services Agreement. In the event

that no offer is then outstanding under Section 6.2 below, Winthrop shall be
obligated to make an offer to Agent in accordance with the terms of this
Section 6.1 by May 1, 2014.

        6.2 Transfer/Right of First Offer. Agent shall have no right to
transfer (including by way of a transfer of control of Agent) or assign this
Services Agreement without the consent of Winthrop, which may be given or
withheld in its sole discretion. Winthrop shall have the right to transfer
its general partner interest in any or all of the Partnerships in which it
acts as a general partner; provided, however, that if Winthrop elects to sell
its general partnership interest in a Partnership during the term of this
Services Agreement, Agent shall have the right of first offer set forth in
subsection (i) to purchase such interest:

                      (i) Winthrop shall give written notice to Agent of the
price and terms on which Winthrop desires to sell the general partnership
interest. Such notice shall constitute an offer by Winthrop to sell the
general partnership interest to Agent on an "as is" basis, without any
representations and warranties other than those as to ownership of such
interest. The price offered to Agent shall be the value of the interest
encumbered by this Services Agreement. Agent shall have thirty (30) days from
receipt of such notice to accept the offer by giving to Winthrop within such
period written notice of acceptance. If the offer is so accepted, the
purchase and sale of the interest shall be consummated within sixty (60) days
after such acceptance (or such longer period, not to exceed six (6) months,
as may be required solely to obtain the approval of any governmental
authority whose consent is required to transfer a general partnership
interest in any Partnership). If the purchase transaction is not consummated
within the foregoing 60-day period, Agent's rights pursuant to this Section
shall terminate.

                      (ii) In the event Agent rejects the offer or fails
timely to accept the offer made pursuant to subsection (i) above, Winthrop
may, during the six (6) month period next following the expiration of the
30-day offer period, enter into an agreement with any third person for the
sale of the interest at a price not less than the price contained in the
notice

                                      9

<PAGE>

submitted to Agent and on terms not more favorable to the purchaser than the
terms contained in the notice submitted to Agent. Conditions to the
purchaser's obligation to buy and warranties concerning the interest shall
not be deemed terms more favorable to the purchaser. If no agreement is
entered into within such 6-month period, or if an agreement is entered into
within such 6-month period, but the purchase transaction has not been
consummated with sixty (60) days after expiration of such 6-month period (or
such longer period, not to exceed six (6) months, as may be required solely
to obtain the approval of any governmental authority whose consent is
required to transfer a general partnership interest in any Partnership), the
interest shall not thereafter be sold without first being reoffered to Agent
in accordance with the terms of this Section.


        6.3 Termination by Winthrop. If, during the term of this Services
Agreement, Winthrop receives notice of the occurrence of any of the events
listed in this Section 6.3, Winthrop may terminate this Services Agreement
(either in total for the reasons set forth in clauses (i)or (ii) below, or as
to one or more of the Partnerships for the reasons set forth in clause (iii)
or clause (iv) below to the extent that such reasons are applicable to such
Partnership(s)), upon thirty (30) days written notice to Agent (or such
shorter period if required in the reasonable judgment of Winthrop to prevent
a disruption of continuous services to the Partnerships):

                      (i) a continuing material default by Agent to provide
the services to the Partnerships required herein and in the manner provided
herein, which default shall not be cured within thirty (30) days after
receipt of written notice thereof from Winthrop or within such longer period
(but in any event not to exceed one hundred and twenty (120) days), if any,
as may be reasonably required to effect such proceeding to effect such cure;

                      (ii) the discontinuance or cessation of business by
Agent, including by reason of the bankruptcy of Agent;

                      (iii) with respect to any one or more of the
Partnerships, a decision made in the good faith judgment of Winthrop that
termination is required to permit Winthrop to satisfy their fiduciary
obligations to such Partnership(s); or

                      (iv) at any time after the Effective Date, the adoption
or enactment of any applicable law or governmental rule, requirement,
guideline, order or regulation, or any change therein or change in the
interpretation or administration thereof, by any judicial or governmental
authority which shall make it illegal or impossible for Winthrop or the
Partnerships to engage Agent to provide the services described in this
Services Agreement; provided, however, that (a) Winthrop shall use its
reasonable efforts to eliminate such illegality or impossibility to the
extent reasonably possible, and shall have the right to terminate only those
portions of this Services Agreement which it has become illegal or impossible
for Winthrop or the Partnerships to engage Agent to perform, and (b) Winthrop
shall provide to Agent an opinion of Winthrop's counsel (which counsel shall
be reasonably satisfactory to Agent) confirming such illegality or
impossibility.

Agreement, Agent receives notice of the occurrence of any of the events
listed below, Agent may terminate this Services Agreement:

                      (i) at any time after the Effective Date, the adoption
or enactment of any applicable law or governmental rule, requirement,
guideline, order or regulation, or any change therein or change in the
interpretation or administration thereof, by any judicial or governmental
authority which shall make it illegal or impossible for Agent to provide the
services described herein; provided, however, that (a) Agent shall use its
reasonable efforts to

                                     11

<PAGE>

eliminate such illegality or impossibility to the extent reasonably possible,
and shall have the right to terminate only those portions of this Services

Agreement which it has become illegal or impossible for Agent to perform, and
(b) Agent shall provide to Winthrop an opinion of Agent's counsel (which
counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to Winthrop) confirming such
illegality or impossibility;

                      (ii) the material breach by Winthrop of any one or more
of the representations made in Section 5.1, but only where such material
breach has a material adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or
otherwise) or results of operations of Agent; or

                      (iii) with respect to any one or more of the
Partnerships, the amendment of the partnership agreement of a Partnership
upon the request or direction of Winthrop which has a material adverse effect
on Agent's rights, compensation or obligations under this Services Agreement
as to such Partnership.

        In any event, Agent shall have the right to terminate this Services
Agreement on June 30, 2002, and each anniversary thereafter, upon six (6)
months prior written notice to Winthrop.

        In the event this Services Agreement is terminated by Agent pursuant
to Section 6.4 (i) or (iii) above (in whole or part) at any time prior to
June 30, 2002, Winthrop shall refund the consideration paid by Agent under
Section 3.1 (i), (ii), and (iii) less the amount of Asset Management Fees,
Accrued Asset Management Fees, Operation Distributions, Refinancing
Distributions, and Sale Distributions Agent has collected after deducting
Agent's reasonable direct costs and unreimbursed expenses which it has
incurred in the performance of its services hereunder; said refund will be
paid within five (5) business days after receipt from Agent of all
Partnership information required to be returned to Winthrop pursuant to the
terms of this Services Agreement, and the transfer of Operating Accounts, if
any, held by Agent pursuant to Section 2.1.3 herein.

        6.5 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this
Services Agreement with respect to any one or more particular Partnership,
then the entitlement of Agent with respect to any compensation referred to in
Section 3.2 with respect to such Partnership shall terminate concurrently
therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no termination of this Services
Agreement, either in total or with respect to any Partnership, shall impair
the rights of Agent to ultimately receive all amounts earned by Agent under
this Services Agreement prior to the effective date of any such termination.

utilized to provide services to the Partnerships, and all other materials
generally relating to the Partnerships;

require (in Agent's sole discretion) in order to continue its other business
activities; and

                      (iii) for such period as is reasonably required
therefor, generally cooperate in good faith with Winthrop in winding down its
activities under this Services Agreement and causing an orderly transition of
responsibility for the services to occur.

        In the event this Services Agreement is terminated by Winthrop under
Section 6.3 (iv) or (v) or by Agent under Section 6.4 (i), (ii) or (iii),
Winthrop shall reimburse Agent for the cost of compliance with Section
6.6.1(i), provided, however, Agent shall not charge any fee in connection
with such matters.
