IMPORTANT
HIGH RIVER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware limited partnership (the
"Purchaser"), hereby supplements and amends its Offer to Purchase dated August
3, 1995, as amended on August 7, 1995. The Purchaser is offering to purchase up
to 38,940 units of limited partnership interest ("Units") in McNEIL REAL ESTATE
FUND XIV, LTD., a California limited partnership (the "Partnership"), at a
purchase price of $95.00 per Unit (the "Purchase Price"), net to the seller in
cash, without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
in: (i) the Offer to Purchase dated August 3, 1995, as amended on August 7,
1995; (ii) this Supplement thereto (such Offer to Purchase, as amended on August
7, 1995 and as amended and supplemented by this Supplement, the "Offer to
Purchase"); and (iii) the related Assignment of Partnership Interest (which
collectively constitute the "Offer"). Unless the context otherwise requires,
capitalized terms used in this Supplement but not defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase.
The bullets on the inside front cover page of the Offer to Purchase are
hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
Limited Partners are urged to consider the following factors:
o The Purchaser is making the Offer with a view to making a profit.
Accordingly, there is a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser to
purchase Units at the lowest possible price and the desire of the Limited
Partners to sell their Units at the highest possible price.
o The net asset value per Unit of approximately $125.00 (exclusive of
cash and cash equivalents equal to approximately $30.00 per Unit as of
March 31, 1995) estimated by the Purchaser is greater than the Purchase
Price. When determining the value of his Units and deciding whether to
tender his Units pursuant to the Offer, a Limited Partner should consider
BOTH the net asset value as estimated by the Purchaser and the cash and
cash equivalents (which, due to its method of valuation of the Units, the
Purchaser did not include in such net asset value). See "Introduction" and
Section 13 of the Offer to Purchase.
o If the Purchaser is successful in acquiring a substantial number of
Units pursuant to the Offer, the Purchaser, which is controlled by Carl C.
Icahn, will have the right to vote those Units and may thereby be in

a position to influence voting decisions with respect to the Partnership,
including, without limitation, decisions concerning amendments to the
Partnership Agreement and removal and replacement of the Partnership's
general partner. This means that (i) those who remain Limited Partners
after the expiration of the Offer could be prevented from taking action
they desire but that the Purchaser opposes and (ii) the Purchaser may be
able to take action desired by the Purchaser but opposed by such remaining
Limited Partners. Generally, however, voting decisions other than certain
decisions concerning the removal and substitution of the Partnership's
general partner require the consent of the Partnership's general partner
prior to effectuation. Further, to the extent valid, Reorganization
Transactions require a Supermajority Vote (as those terms are defined in
the Partnership Agreement) and the consent of the Partnership's general
partner prior to effectuation. See Section 10 of the Offer to Purchase.
o The terms of the Partnership Agreement require the Partnership's
general partner to begin to liquidate the Partnership's properties no later
than September 20, 1998, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to
liquidate and terminate the Partnership by December 31, 1999. If such a
liquidation were to occur, Limited Partners who sell their Units to the
Purchaser pursuant to the Offer will not participate in any such
liquidation, which may be at a price higher than the Purchase Price. See
"Introduction" and Section 9 of the Offer to Purchase.
o The Purchaser may seek to remove the Partnership's general partner
but, while reserving such right, the Purchaser has no present intention of
doing so. Such removal may require the Partnership to pay a fee to the
Partnership's general partner and/or its affiliates and may result in
acceleration of certain of the Partnership's debt obligations, which may
have an adverse effect on the Partnership. See "Introduction" of the Offer
to Purchase.
o As discussed in Section 6 of the Offer to Purchase, the sale of 50
percent or more of the Units in the Partnership over a period of twelve
months will result in the termination of the Partnership for federal income
tax purposes. Such a termination would result in lower depreciation
deductions to the Partnership for the next few years. Accordingly, it is
possible that the acquisition of Units pursuant to the Offer, when combined
with other transfers within twelve months, will result in a termination of
the Partnership for income tax purposes. In such a case, non-tendering
Limited Partners may, depending on their individual circumstances, have a
greater tax liability with respect to the Partnership than they would have
had in the absence of a termination. See Section 6 of the Offer to
Purchase.
INTRODUCTION
The bullets in the "INTRODUCTION" of the Offer to Purchase are hereby
amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
SOME FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED BY LIMITED PARTNERS. In considering the
Offer, Limited Partners may wish to consider the following:
o The Purchaser is making the Offer with a view to making a profit.
Accordingly, there is a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser to
purchase Units at the lowest possible price and the desire of the Limited
Partners to sell their Units at the highest possible price.

Questions and requests for assistance or for additional copies of the Offer
to Purchase, the Assignment of Partnership Interest and the Confirmation Letter
may be directed to the Information Agent at the address and telephone numbers
set forth on the back cover of this Supplement. No soliciting dealer fees or
other payments to brokers for tenders are being paid by the Purchaser.

(continued from previous page)
o If the Purchaser is successful in acquiring a substantial number of
Units pursuant to the Offer, the Purchaser, which is controlled by Mr.
Icahn, will have the right to vote those Units and may thereby be in a
position to influence voting decisions with respect to the Partnership,
including, without limitation, decisions concerning amendments to the
Partnership Agreement and removal and replacement of the Partnership's
general partner. This means that (i) those who remain Limited Partners
after the expiration of the Offer could be prevented from taking action
they desire but that the Purchaser opposes and (ii) the Purchaser may be
able to take action desired by the Purchaser which may be opposed by, and
which may not be in the best interests of, such remaining Limited Partners.
Generally, however, voting decisions other than certain decisions
concerning the removal and substitution of the Partnership's general
partner require the consent of the Partnership's general partner prior to
effectuation. Further, to the extent valid, Reorganization Transactions
require a Supermajority Vote (as those terms are defined in the Partnership
Agreement) and the consent of the Partnership's general partner prior to
effectuation. See Section 10 of the Offer to Purchase.
o The terms of the Partnership Agreement require the Partnership's
general partner to begin to liquidate the Partnership's properties no later
than September 20, 1998, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to
liquidate and terminate the Partnership by December 31, 1999. In this
regard, however, it should be noted that the Form 10-K states as follows:
"In light of the depressed real estate market, the Partnership has not been
able to liquidate all of its properties within the originally expected time
frame of from five to ten years after their acquisition (i.e., between 1990
and 1996). The General Partner now expects to hold the Partnership's
portfolio of real estate investments until such time as the real estate
market and the performance of the Partnership's investments improves and
permits the Partnership to achieve its capital preservation and capital
gains objectives. There can be no assurance, however, that the properties'
values will increase over an extended holding period." If such a
liquidation were to occur, Limited Partners who sell their Units to the
Purchaser pursuant to the Offer will not participate in any such
liquidation, which may be at a price higher than the Purchase Price.
o Although the Purchaser is making the Offer for investment purposes,
it may, depending on the number of Units it acquires pursuant to the Offer,
be in a position to influence control of the business of the Partnership.
If the Purchaser acquires a substantial number of the outstanding Units,
the Purchaser will be in a position to influence voting decisions with
respect to the Partnership. The Purchaser may seek to remove the general
partner of the Partnership but, while reserving such right, the Purchaser
has no present intention of doing so. Such removal may require the
Partnership to pay a fee to the Partnership's general partner and/or its
affiliates and may result in acceleration of certain of the Partnership's
debt obligations, which may have an adverse effect on the Partnership.
o Based solely on financial and other information relating to the
Partnership that is publicly available in its Form 10-K filed with the
Commission, the Purchaser, solely for consideration with other information
in connection with preparing a bid, estimated the net asset value per Unit
to be approximately $125.00 (exclusive of cash and cash equivalents equal
to approximately $30.00 per Unit as of March 31, 1995). When determining
the value of his Units and deciding whether to tender his Units pursuant to
the Offer, a Limited Partner should consider both the net asset value as
estimated by the Purchaser and the cash and cash equivalents (which, due to
its method of valuation of the Units, the Purchaser did not include in such
net asset value). THE PURCHASER HAS RECENTLY VISITED CERTAIN OF THE
PARTNERSHIP'S PROPERTIES. HOWEVER, THE PURCHASER HAS NOT CONDUCTED ANY
APPRAISAL OF THE PARTNERSHIP'S PROPERTIES AND HAS NO INDEPENDENT BASIS
WHATSOEVER FOR DETERMINING THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE
PARTNERSHIP'S PUBLICLY FILED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OR FOR DETERMINING TO
WHAT EXTENT, IF ANY, THE PURCHASER'S ESTIMATE OF NET ASSET VALUE REPRESENTS
THE TRUE NET ASSET VALUE OF EACH UNIT. See Section 13 of the Offer to
Purchase.
o As discussed in Section 6 of the Offer to Purchase, the sale of 50
percent or more of the Units in the Partnership over a period of twelve
months will result in the termination of the Partnership for federal income
tax purposes. Such a termination would result in lower depreciation
deductions to the Partnership for the next few years. If the acquisition of
Units pursuant to the Offer, when combined with other transfers within
twelve months, results in a termination of the Partnership, non-tendering
Limited Partners may, depending on their individual circumstances, have a
greater tax liability with respect to the Partnership than they would have
had in the absence of a termination. See Section 6 of the Offer to
Purchase.

Competitive Conditions at Properties
Country Hills Plaza has been able to achieve above market levels of
occupancy and net rental rates. Current occupancy is 100%. Country Hills at the
moment is the only retail center in the area with a major anchor tenant.
However, two new retail centers with anchor tenants are being developed in the
north and south of Country Hills along the same major artery that Country Hills
is located. Country Hills enjoys a good location next to a university and a
major medical center. Capital improvements will be necessary to give the
property an updated appearance to compete effectively with the new retail
developments.
The area surrounding Embarcadero Club Apartments has rebounded from the
1991 Eastern Airlines bankruptcy. Area occupancy has improved to 95%, and
concessions granted to tenants are becoming rare. Embarcadero Club's occupancy
rate is at 98%, and concessions are no longer required to maintain that
occupancy rate. Embarcadero Club competes with both low end and high end
properties. The $1,075,000 of renovations completed at Embarcadero Club since
1991 have allowed the property to compete effectively with newer properties. No
new construction is planned for the area.
Midvale Plaza has been able to achieve above market levels of occupancy and
net rental rates. Current occupancy is 100% with no lease expirations occurring
during 1995. The property enjoys an excellent location at the intersection of
two main thoroughfares. The principal problem for the property is to maintain
its clean appearance and curb appeal relative to newer retail centers in the
area.
The area surrounding Redwood Plaza is transforming from a middle to low
income area to a growing commercial district. Local businesses, such as
McDonnell Douglas, Litton Industries and Unisys, as well as one of the
property's tenants, the Utah Motor Vehicle Division, provide strong lunch time
traffic to this property. The Motor Vehicle Division is one of only three
offices in the Salt Lake Valley where motorists may renew their licenses.
Additionally, this is the only retail center in the immediate area. Occupancy
should reach 100% during 1995.
Tanglewood Village Apartments occupancy and rental rates are comparable to
market averages for Carson City. Occupancy rates for the market and Tanglewood
Village are 97%. Rent per square foot after a planned 4% increase in 1995 will
be $.64 per square foot, only slightly ahead of the market's average of $.63 per
square foot. Tanglewood Village has shown strong earnings growth the past two
years due to capital improvements, especially the new swimming pool. The
property is well located in an area projected to have a strong rental market for
the next three years.
5
<PAGE>
Thunder Hollow Apartments has been able to maintain occupancy rates in line
with the local market's 94% to 96% average occupancy rate even though it
typically has been able to obtain rental rates higher than its competition. The
property has some of the largest floor plans in its market, an especially
attractive feature for tenants with children. There has been no new multi-family
development in the market for several years. Competition is limited in this
market, but further increases in rental rates may be difficult to achieve due to
the predominantly blue collar demographics of the area and an overbuilt single
family home market.
The average occupancy rate in Windrock Apartments' market area is 93%.
While Windrock's year-end occupancy percentage of 83% is unusually low for the
property, Windrock's average occupancy rate has usually trailed market averages
by 3 to 5%. Windrock offers some unusually large floor plans in a secluded
setting, but lack of washer/dryer connections and limited parking space have
been handicaps for the property as it competes with newer properties with full
amenity packages. Also of concern are defense cutbacks at nearby Fort Bliss and
the devaluation of the peso. Capital improvements completed and planned are
necessary for Windrock to compete effectively with other properties in the area.

Partnership's commercial properties for 1995 through 2004:

Section 13. Background of the Offer.
The first paragraph of Section 13 of the Offer to Purchase, entitled "Prior
Contacts with the Partnership", is hereby amended to read in its entirety as
follows:
PRIOR CONTACTS WITH THE PARTNERSHIP. On or about July 27, 1995, Robert
A. McNeil, Carol J. McNeil (the Chairman and Co-Chairman of the
Partnership's general partner's corporate general partner) and Mr. Icahn,
spoke by telephone. Mr. Icahn told the McNeils that he had been informed
that they were interested in selling the Partnership's general partner. The
McNeils said that they were not interested in selling the Partnership's
general partner but urged Mr. Icahn to contact their counsel, Scott
Wallace. In the conversation with the McNeils, Mr. Icahn indicated that he
intended to make a tender offer for Units and a joint tender offer was
discussed. Again, the McNeils urged Mr. Icahn to contact Scott Wallace. No
agreements were reached. In the days that followed up to on or about August
1, 1995, Mr. Icahn participated in several telephone conversations with
Scott Wallace. The same subjects were explored and Mr. Icahn confirmed his
intention to conduct a tender offer for Units. Again, no agreements were
reached. One of these conversations, which took place on or about August 1,
1995 among Scott Wallace, Mr. Icahn and a former counsel for the
Partnership, became a subject of the litigation described below.
The McNeils delivered a letter to the Purchaser on August 9, 1995
claiming that the former counsel divulged confidential information
concerning the McNeils' personal tax situation during the August 1, 1995
telephone conversation, that the Offer was based on confidential
information and that the Partnership would not mail the Offer unless the
Purchaser and Mr. Icahn signed a certificate concerning the purported
confidential information. Later that day, the Purchaser and Mr. Icahn,
through their counsel, responded to the McNeils stating, among other
things, that the former counsel confirmed that he did not convey any
confidential information, that Scott Wallace gave no indication that any of
the information conveyed by the former counsel was confidential and that,
in any event, the Purchaser was not aware that any information received
from the former counsel was confidential. The McNeils nevertheless
continued to refuse to mail. Therefore, on August 10, 1995, the Purchaser
commenced an action in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York against the Partnership's general partner, its
corporate general partner, and the McNeils (collectively "Management"), as
well as the Partnership and related partnerships (collectively with
Management, the "Defendants") alleging Management breaches of fiduciary
duty and that the Defendants' failure to mail the Offer violated the
Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 14d-5. On that same day, the
Court, upon the Purchaser's application, issued a preliminary injunction.
The Court found that "High River [the Purchaser] and the limited partners
have been, and are being, irreparably harmed by defendants' failure timely
to furnish the limited partner lists or mail the tender offer materials to
the limited partners. . . . [D]efendants are depriving plaintiff [the
Purchaser] of its opportunity to tender and are depriving the limited
partners of their opportunity to consider whether to sell their units as
contemplated by the tender offer rules." The Court further found that
"plaintiff has a likelihood of success on the merits. Regulation 14d-5 is
clear in its requirements, and plaintiff appears likely to be able to
demonstrate the defendants violated the provisions of that regulation." The
Court ordered the Defendants to either furnish the Purchaser with a list of
the names and addresses of the Limited Partners or mail the Offer to the
Limited Partners on the Purchaser's behalf. The Defendants elected to mail.

<PAGE>
On August 16, 1995, the Partnership, through its counsel, declined the
Purchaser's request for a list of the Limited Partners, stating that the
list was confidential and since the Purchaser was not a Limited Partner,
such information was not required to be provided under applicable law.
On August 17, 1995, the Purchaser sent a letter to the Partnership's
general partner requesting that the Partnership's general partner agree to
cooperate in satisfying certain conditions of the Offer and to facilitate
the transfer of Units, thereby enabling Limited Partners who wished to sell
their Units pursuant to the Offer the opportunity to do so.
On August 18, 1995, the Defendants in the above-described litigation
served and filed a Counterclaim and Answer (the "Counterclaim").
Defendants' Counterclaim requests an injunction and alleges that the Offer
was made in violation of federal securities laws, specifically Sections
10(b), 14(d) and 14(e) of the Exchange Act and the regulations promulgated
thereunder, because it failed to disclose that the Purchaser based its
Offer on confidential information. The Counterclaim also alleges that the
Offer failed to disclose that the Purchaser seeks control of the
Partnership and the related partnership Defendants, and that it failed to
adequately disclose financial information pertaining to the Purchaser and
the Purchaser's history of corporate acquisitions. The Purchaser denies the
allegations and believes they are wholly without merit.
The third paragraph of Section 13, entitled "Valuation Analysis", is hereby
amended to read in its entirety as follows:
VALUATION ANALYSIS. The Purchaser reviewed publicly available
financial information relating to the Partnership for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1994 in order to determine an adjusted net income (reduced by
an amount intended to reflect normal capital expenditures and operating
expenses) of $4,397,965.00 and then capitalized that amount at 11%, which
the Purchaser believes represents an appropriate capitalization rate for a
real estate portfolio such as the Partnership's. That review process
produced an estimated aggregate net asset value per Unit (exclusive of cash
and cash equivalents equal to approximately $30.00 per Unit as of March 31,
1995) of approximately $125.00. When determining the value of his Units and
deciding whether to tender his Units pursuant to the Offer, a Limited
Partner should consider both the net asset value as estimated by the
Purchaser and the cash and cash equivalents (which, due to its method of
valuation of the Units, the Purchaser did not include in such net asset
value). It should be noted that the Purchaser does not have access to any
information concerning the Partnership or its properties other than
information that is publicly available, that the Purchaser's foregoing
calculations are based on rough estimates and that the values resulting
therefrom may not be indicative of actual values to any extent. It should
also be noted that investors may disagree as to the appropriate
capitalization rate to be applied, and Limited Partners are advised that
the utilization of a lower capitalization rate results in a higher estimate
of aggregate value.
The following is hereby added as the last paragraph of Section 13:
METHOD UTILIZED BY THE PURCHASER TO DETERMINE PURCHASE PRICE. In order
to determine the Purchase Price, the Purchaser considered the information
set forth above under "Valuation Analysis" and examined (i) information,
dated as of July 27, 1995, from the Chicago Partnership Board, Inc. (the
"Chicago Board") indicating an asking price per Unit of $79.95 that was
acceptable to possible sellers of Units; and (ii) a summary of the trading
activity of the Units for the period April 1, 1995 through May 31, 1995
(the "Summary Period") appearing in the May/June 1995 issue of the
Partnership Spectrum (the "Trading Summary"). The Trading Summary indicated
that during the Summary Period an aggregate of 130 Units were traded in a
total of 3 trades at a price range of $65.00 to $79.00 per Unit and at a
weighted average of $76.85 per Unit. The Purchaser determined to establish
the Purchase Price at a premium over such weighted average. Limited
Partners should be aware that the Form 10-K states as follows: "[t]here is
no established public trading market for limited partnership units nor is
one expected to develop." Therefore, the prices reflected in the Trading
Summary or in reports from the Chicago Board may not accurately reflect the
value of the Partnership's assets or of Units and Limited Partners may or
may not be able to sell their Units independently of the Offer at the
prices reflected in the Trading Summary or in reports from the Chicago
Board.

Section 14. Conditions to the Offer.
The last paragraph of Section 14 of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended
by adding the following as the last two sentences to such paragraph:
No assurance can be given that the Partnership's general partner will
voluntarily take the actions referred to in paragraphs (e) and (f).
Accordingly, in order to cause the Partnership's general partner to take
such actions, the Purchaser may be required to take appropriate actions,
including, without limitation, the commencement of litigation, the effect
of which may be to delay payment for tendered Units (except to the extent,
if any, that the Purchaser waives the applicable conditions).
