Year 2000 Issue

         The Partnership is working to resolve the potential impact of the year
2000 on the ability of the Partnership's computerized information systems to
accurately process information that may be date-sensitive.  Any of the
Partnership's programs that recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather
than the year 2000 could result in error or system failures.  The Partnership
utilizes a number of computer programs across its entire operation.  The
Partnership has not completed its assessment, but currently believes that costs
of addressing this will not have a material adverse impact on the Partnership's
financial position.  However, no estimates can be made as to the potential
adverse impact resulting from the failure of third party service providers and
vendors to prepare for the year 2000.  The Partnership is attempting to identify
those risks as well as to receive compliance certificates from all third parties
that have a material impact on the Partnership's operations.
