ITEM 2 - Disposition of Assets

   Nob Hill Apartments, San Antonio, Texas

   Disposition Date - February 7, 1997

      On  February  7, 1997,  Nob Hill  Partners,  a joint  venture in which the
Partnership has an investment,  sold its operating investment property,  the Nob
Hill Apartments,  located in San Antonio, Texas, to an unrelated third party for
$9.5  million.  While the  transaction  has been  executed  and  control  of the
property has been  transferred to the buyer,  the sale remains  contingent  upon
receiving  the consent of the  Secretary of the  Department of Housing and Urban
Development ("HUD") to the sale and the assumption of the loan by the purchaser.
Such final approval has not been received to date,  but management  expects such
approval to be  forthcoming by early April 1997. The sale generated net proceeds
of approximately  $2.3 million which was distributed to the  Partnership,  to be
held pending receipt of the formal approval referred to above. In addition,  the
venture had excess working capital of approximately  $214,000 at the time of the
sale.  All of the  net  proceeds  and  excess  working  capital  are  due to the
Partnership under the terms of the Nob Hill venture  agreement.  The Partnership
is  expected  to  make a  special  distribution  of  $100  per  original  $1,000
investment  subsequent  to  receiving  the final HUD  approval.  Of this amount,
approximately $84 would represent the net proceeds from the sale of the Nob Hill
Apartments  and $16  would  represent  a  distribution  of Partnership reserves 
which exceed expected future requirements.

            (d)  All  rights,  titles  and  interests  of  SELLER  in and to any
      easements,  rights-of-way  or other  interests  in,  on, or to,  any land,

      assume by the Closing Date, or if SELLER is not able to obtain the consent

      Leasing Agreement,  PURCHASER shall have the right to either (i) terminate
      this Contract by giving written notice of such  termination to SELLER,  in
      which event the Earnest  Money shall be returned to PURCHASER  and neither
      SELLER  nor  PURCHASER  shall  have  any  further  duties  or  obligations
      hereunder  except as  expressly  provided  for herein or (ii)  assume such
      Maintenance,  Service and Leasing  Agreement and close this transaction in
      accordance with the terms of this Contract.

      guaranties,  bonds,  certificates (including Certificates of Occupancy for

      the  Improvements or the Personal  Property to the extent that same are in
      existence and assignable  without the consent of third parties (other than
      Lender).  To the extent  that the  consent of a third  party  (other  than
      Lender) is  required,  SELLER shall use its  reasonable  efforts to obtain
      such  consent  (but SELLER shall not be obligated to incur any expenses in
      obtaining such  consent),  and if such consent is given such item shall be
      assigned  to  PURCHASER.   With  respect  to  prorations  on  the  closing
      statement,  SELLER  shall be given a credit  for any escrow  accounts  for
      taxes  covering  the  period  after the  Closing  Date to the  extent  not
      otherwise  prorated  hereunder held by the Lender that are  transferred to

      constitutes a part of SELLER's continuing business operations or financial
      records may be retained by SELLER if SELLER gives PURCHASER legible copies

      SELLER  and in any  way  related  to,  or  used in  connection  with,  the

             documents  evidencing,  relating to or securing the Loan are herein
             collectively called the "Loan Documents"). For the purposes of this
             Contract,  Newport  Mortgage,  or any successor owner and holder of
             the Loan, is herein called the "Lender."

      (b)   The remainder of the Purchase Price, being  $10,000,000.00  less the

            be paid to SELLER by PURCHASER in cash  (United  States  Dollars) at
            Closing (the "Cash Portion").

       (c)   It is  understood  and  agreed  that  part  of the  Purchase  Price
             represents  consideration  to be paid by  PURCHASER  to SELLER  for
             amounts held by Lender in escrow for the benefit of SELLER pursuant
             to the terms of that certain  Replacement  Reserve  Agreement dated
             October  20,  1993  by and  between  SELLER  and  Newport  Mortgage
             Company,  L.P.,  as  modified by letter from HUD dated May 4, 1995,

             Account").  It is  acknowledged  and  agreed  that the  Replacement
             Reserve Account shall continue to be held by Lender and governed by
             the terms of said Replacement Reserve Agreement.

       3.DEPOSIT OF CONTRACT AND EARNEST MONEY WITH TITLE  COMPANY;  INDEPENDENT
 CONTRACT CONSIDERATION.

            (a) A fully executed  counterpart  of this  Contract,  together with
      PURCHASER's  earnest  money in the  amount of FIFTY  THOUSAND  AND  NO/100
      DOLLARS ($50,000.00), (which amount shall be placed in an interest bearing
      account with a financial institution  acceptable to SELLER and PURCHASER),
      shall be deposited  on or before 5:00 P.M. San Antonio,  Texas time by the
      third day after this  Contract has been fully  executed by  PURCHASER  and
      SELLER in the trust account of Mr. Chris Haynes, Counsel for SELLER, whose
      address is as set forth on Page 17 of this Agreement,  who shall hold same
      in accordance  with the terms and provisions of this Contract.  Mr. Haynes
      shall provide  written  notification  to SELLER and SELLER's  Counsel that
      such  amount  has been  received  and  deposited  by Mr.  Haynes.  For the
      purposes of this Contract,  any reference to the "Title Company" returning
      or disbursing the Earnest Money (as defined in the  immediately  following
      sentence) prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period (as hereinafter
      defined) shall mean Mr. Haynes  returning or disbursing the Earnest Money.
      Such amount,  together with (i) any interest  earned  thereon and (ii) the
      additional  deposits,  if made  pursuant to the terms of  Paragraph  5, is
      herein  called the "Earnest  Money." In the event the Earnest Money is not
      so deposited with the Title Company, SELLER may terminate this Contract by
      giving written  notice to PURCHASER and the Title Company,  in which event
      neither SELLER nor PURCHASER  shall have any further duties or obligations
      hereunder except as expressly provided for herein. The Earnest Money shall
      be held in escrow by the Title Company and  disbursed in  accordance  with
      the terms hereof,  and if this transaction  closes,  shall be disbursed to
      SELLER as part of the cash  portion  of the  Purchase  Price.  SELLER  and
      PURCHASER  agree  that  Title  Company,   as  escrow  agent,  shall  be  a
      stakeholder only and shall not be liable to either SELLER or PURCHASER for
      any damages,  losses or costs resulting from the performance of its duties
      hereunder  in strict  accordance  with the terms of this  Contract.  Title
      Company,  as  escrow  agent,  shall  have the  right,  exercisable  in its
      discretion,  to be  discharged  as  escrow  agent  by  tendering  unto the
      registry or the custody of any court of  competent  jurisdiction  in Bexar
      County,  Texas, the Earnest Money and interpleader  legal pleadings as the
      Title Company deems appropriate.

            (b) Contemporaneously with the execution of this Contract, PURCHASER
      has paid to  SELLER  the  amount  of FIFTY  AND  NO/100  DOLLARS  ($50.00)
      (hereinafter  referred to as the  "Independent  Contract  Consideration"),
      which amount the parties have bargained and agreed to as the consideration
      for PURCHASER's agreement to purchase the Property in accordance herewith,
      and for SELLER's execution, delivery and performance of this Contract. The
      Independent  Contract  Consideration  is in addition to and independent of
      any other  consideration  or payment  provided  for in this  Contract,  is
      nonrefundable,  and shall be retained by SELLER, notwithstanding any other
      provision of this Contract.

 which is ten (10) days  after the  Effective  Date  (defined  in  Paragraph  26

           (i) Copies of the  Certificates  of Occupancy  held by SELLER for the
      improvements;

            (j) To the extent available,  copies of loss runs from the liability
      insurance carriers for the SELLER applicable to the Property for the three
      (3) years immediately preceding the Effective Date of this Contract;

            (k)   An itemized list of the Personal Property; and

            (l) Copies of the Loan Documents  (other than for any Loan Documents
      that  may  evidence  the  sale of the  Loan  from  Newport  Mortgage  to a
      third-party investor).

The  documents  described  in  this  Paragraph  4 are the  "Documents,"  and the
information contained in the Documents is the "Information." If this Contract is
terminated  as provided for herein below,  PURCHASER  agrees to return to SELLER
the  Documents  and any  reports and  information  that have been  furnished  to
PURCHASER by SELLER for review.  PURCHASER also agrees to allow SELLER to review
copies of all  reports,  appraisals  and  Memoranda  obtained  by  PURCHASER  in
connection  with  PURCHASER's  due  diligence.  PURCHASER  agrees  to  keep  all
Information  contained in the Documents  confidential;  provided,  however, that
PURCHASER may furnish and disclose the Documents  and the  Information  to third
parties that  PURCHASER  deems  necessary to assist  PURCHASER in its review and
analysis of the Property,  so long as PURCHASER  obligates such third parties to
keep the Documents and the Information  confidential and uses reasonable efforts
in having such third parties adhere to such obligation.

      5. INSPECTION PERIOD;  ADDITIONAL DEPOSIT. From the Effective Date of this
Contract to the earlier to occur of (i) any termination of this Contract or (ii)
the Closing  Date,  SELLER shall afford  PURCHASER and its  representatives,  at
PURCHASER's sole cost and expense, a continuing right to inspect,  at reasonable
hours, the Property,  the Documents,  and all other documents or data pertaining
to the  ownership  and  operation of the  Property.  SELLER  shall  assemble any
Documents  reasonably  requested  by  PURCHASER,   to  the  extent  in  SELLER's
possession,  at SELLER's office, at the office of SELLER's  property  management
company,  or at the on-site  property  management  office.  PURCHASER  shall not
unreasonably  interfere  with the rights of any party then in  possession of the
Property pursuant to the Tenant Leases.  If PURCHASER,  in its sole and absolute
discretion, elects to continue with this transaction,  PURCHASER shall, prior to
11:59 p.m San  Antonio,  Texas  time on the day that is thirty  (30) days  after
PURCHASER'S  receipt of the  Documents  (such period of time being herein called
the "Inspection Period"),  (a) deliver written notice of such election to SELLER
and the Title  Company  and (b) (i) cause Mr.  Haynes  to  deposit  the  initial
$50,000 Earnest Money and interest  accrued thereon with Chicago Title Insurance
Company (the "Title Company"),  14607 San Pedro,  Suite 175, San Antonio,  Texas
78232, Attention:  Mr. James M. Houlihan [telephone:  (210) 490-1451; fax: (210)
490-3897]  and (ii) deposit with the Title Company the  additional  sum of Fifty
Thousand and No/100  Dollars  ($50,000.00)  which shall be added to and become a
part of the Earnest Money. The Earnest Money,  upon such election,  shall become
non-refundable to PURCHASER except as expressly provided for herein and shall be
disbursed in accordance  with the terms of this Contract.  If PURCHASER fails to
give such notice and/or  deposit the  additional  $50,000.00 of Earnest Money by
the  end of the  Inspection  Period,  then  this  Contract  shall  automatically
terminate,  in which event the Earnest  Money shall be returned to PURCHASER and
neither  SELLER  nor  PURCHASER  shall  have  any  further  rights,   duties  or
obligations hereunder except as expressly set forth herein. PURCHASER shall give
SELLER written notice by the eleventh (11th) day after the Effective Date of any
Documents required to be delivered to PURCHASER that have not been delivered.

      6. TITLE AND SURVEY.  (a)  PURCHASER  shall have the right,  within thirty
(30) days after receipt of the last of the Survey,  the Title Commitment and all
title  exception  documents  referenced  in the Title  Commitment,  to object in
writing to any  matters  reflected  by the Survey or the Title  Commitment.  All
matters shown on Schedule B of the Title  Commitment to which PURCHASER  objects
are "Nonpermitted  Encumbrances." All matters to which objection is not made are
"Permitted  Encumbrances."  SELLER, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the
right, but not the obligation,  to cure or remove all Nonpermitted  Encumbrances
and shall give PURCHASER  written notice,  within ten (10) days after receipt of
PURCHASER's written objections, of those Nonpermitted Encumbrances, if any, that
SELLER shall use its reasonable efforts to cure (provided,  however, that SELLER
shall not be  obligated to incur any costs or expenses in  connection  with such
cure).  PURCHASER,  upon receipt of such notice from SELLER, may elect to either
(i) terminate  this Contract if SELLER has elected to not cure all or any of the
Nonpermitted  Encumbrances  or (ii)  continue with this  transaction.  PURCHASER
shall give SELLER  written  notice of such  election  within five (5) days after
receipt of SELLER's  notice.  If SELLER does not give such notice or  thereafter
does not, prior to Closing, remove or cure those Nonpermitted  Encumbrances that
SELLER  was to  attempt  to  remove  or cure  using  reasonable  efforts,  or if
additional  Nonpermitted  Encumbrances are discovered prior to Closing which are
disclosed to SELLER and  PURCHASER in writing and which are not removed or cured
by SELLER prior to Closing,  then  PURCHASER  shall have the right either to (i)
terminate  this  Contract by delivering  written  notice to SELLER and the Title
Company at any time prior to the  Closing,  in which  event  neither  SELLER nor
PURCHASER shall have any further rights or duties  hereunder except as expressly
provided  for  herein or (ii)  elect to  purchase  the  Property  subject to the
Nonpermitted  Encumbrances (in which event said Nonpermitted  Encumbrances shall
be deemed to be Permitted Encumbrances).

      (b) In the event that PURCHASER elects to proceed with this Contract after
the  Inspection  Period  pursuant to the terms of Section 5 above,  SELLER shall
have the Survey updated to a current date and certified to PURCHASER,  and shall
deliver the updated and recertified  Survey to PURCHASER within twenty (20) days
after the expiration of the Inspection Period. PURCHASER shall have the right to
give written notice to SELLER,  within seven (7) days after SELLER's  receipt of
the updated and recertified  Survey, of PURCHASER's  objections to matters shown
on the updated and recertified  Survey which were not shown on the Survey.  Such
matters so objected to shall be deemed "Nonpermitted Encumbrances," as such term
is defined in  Subparagraph  6(a), and the terms and provisions set forth in the
third  through  sixth  sentences,  inclusive,  of  Subparagraph  6(a)  shall  be
applicable to such matters.

      (c) In connection  with the closing of this  transaction,  PURCHASER shall
expressly  assume  the  obligations  of SELLER  under that  certain  Contractual
Indemnity Agreement dated October 15, 1993 by and between SELLER and the City of
San Antonio,  by and through the San Antonio  Water  System,  a copy of which is
attached  hereto as Exhibit B. SELLER  agrees to use its  reasonable  efforts to
have the City of San Antonio agree that the terms of said Contractual  Indemnity
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of PURCHASER and any successors and assigns
of PURCHASER.

      7.  SELLER'S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS.

      The following  representations and warranties are hereby made to PURCHASER
by SELLER:
            (a)  SELLER  now has and  will  have on the  Closing  Date  good and
      indefeasible  title,  right and  interest in fee simple in and to the Land
      and Improvements constituting a part of the Property and has good title to
      the Personal  Property,  and will on the Closing Date have such  interests
      free and clear of all  liens,  mortgages,  easements,  leases,  tenancies,
      encumbrances  and  defects,  except for the liens and  security  interests
      securing the Loan, the matters set forth in the Title Commitment which are
      Permitted  Encumbrances  and on the  Survey,  the  rights  of  tenants  in
      possession pursuant to unrecorded residential leases, and the Maintenance,
      Service and Leasing Agreements.

            (b) There are no actions, suits (condemnation or otherwise), claims,
      assessments or proceedings pending that SELLER has received written notice
      of or, to the knowledge of SELLER,  threatened that could adversely affect
      the ownership,  operation,  maintenance,  development, use or occupancy of
      the  Property  or  SELLER's  ability  to  perform   hereunder.   PURCHASER
      acknowledges that the value of the Property may be reassessed from time to
      time for tax  purposes  and that tax rates may be  increased  from time to
      time.  SELLER will give PURCHASER  written notice of any such reassessment
      or increase of which SELLER has notice.

            (c)  There  are no  parties  in  possession  of any  portion  of the
      Property  except as (i) tenants under  written  leases as set forth on the
      Tenant Rent Roll;  (ii)  parties  having  rights in and to the Property as
      disclosed  by the  title  exception  instruments  set  forth in the  Title
      Commitment or as shown on the Survey;  and (iii) shown by the Maintenance,
      Service and Leasing Agreements.

            (d) The Property is subject to no leases or rights of any occupants,
      oral or written,  other than those  Tenant  Leases set forth on the Tenant
      Rent Roll.  Except as  disclosed  on the Tenant Rent Roll,  to the best of
      SELLER's  knowledge (i) no rent payable under any Lease has been paid more
      than  thirty  (30)  days in  advance  of its due  date;  (ii) no Tenant is
      asserting  any claim of offset or other  defense  in respect of its or the
      landlord's obligations under its Tenant Lease; (iii) no Tenant is entitled
      to any concession,  rebate,  allowance or period of occupancy free of rent
      under its  Tenant  Lease or under any other  agreement;  (iv) there are no
      agreements  with any of the  Tenants  except  as set  forth in the  Tenant
      Leases; and (v) no Tenant Lease has been modified or amended except as set
      forth on the copy made available to PURCHASER for review, and such copy is
      a true, correct and complete copy of each such Tenant Lease.

            (e) To the  best  of  SELLER's  knowledge  neither  SELLER  nor  the
      Property is subject to any existing,  pending, or threatened  governmental
      investigation  or  any   governmentally   imposed   remedial   obligations
      pertaining  to health  or the  environment.  SELLER  hereby  discloses  to
      PURCHASER  that  asbestos  was  found  in  sprayed-on  acoustical  ceiling
      material;  floor tiles and mastics; thermal board taken from HVAC closets;
      and a black  tar  sealant  used as  caulking  around  HVAC  piping in HVAC
      closets.  The  Lender  required  SELLER to  implement  an  operations  and
      maintenance program.

            (f) SELLER has not received  written  notice of any violation of (i)
      any laws issued by any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the
      Property  or any  portion  thereof or (ii) any  covenants,  conditions  or
      restrictions affecting the Property.

            (g) No notice has been received by SELLER from any insurance company
      that has issued a policy with  respect to any  portion of the  Property or
      from any board of fire  underwriters  (or other  body  exercising  similar
      functions),   claiming  any  defects  or  deficiencies  or  requiring  the
      performance of any repairs, replacements, alterations or other work.

            (h) There are no employees  engaged in the operation or  maintenance
      of the Property for whom PURCHASER will be responsible after Closing.

            (i) Subject to the  provisions  of  Paragraph  28 of this  Contract,
      SELLER has the full right,  power and  authority  to sell the  Property to
      PURCHASER as provided in this  Contract  and to carry out its  obligations
      hereunder.

            (j) Subject to Lender and HUD consenting to the sale of the Property
      to  PURCHASER,  as  addressed in Paragraph  28 below,  the  execution  and
      performance  of this Contract by SELLER will not result in a breach of, or
      default  under,  the terms of any  agreement or other  instrument to which
      SELLER is bound.

            (k)  There  are no  attachments,  executions,  assignments  for  the
      benefit of  creditors,  receiverships,  conservatorships,  or voluntary or
      involuntary  proceedings  in  bankruptcy  or pursuant to any other  debtor
      relief laws  contemplated  or filed by SELLER or to the best  knowledge of
      SELLER pending against SELLER.

            (l) To the best of SELLER's  knowledge (i) there are no maintenance,
      service and leasing  agreements  relating to the Property other than those
      described  in Schedule I attached  hereto;  (ii) SELLER has no  agreements
      with any party  under the  Maintenance,  Service  and  Leasing  Agreements
      relating to the Property except as set forth in said Schedule I; and (iii)
      no Maintenance,  Service or Leasing Agreement has been modified or amended
      except as set forth on the copy made  available to  PURCHASER  for review,
      and such copy is a true, correct and complete copy.

           (m) SELLER has no employees  involved  with the  on-site,  day to day
      management of the Property.

            The  representations  and  warranties set forth above are made as of
      the date this Contract is fully  executed and shall be deemed made also as
      of the Closing Date. It shall be a condition of PURCHASER's  obligation to
      close that the  representations  and warranties made hereunder are true on
      the Closing Date; provided, however, that it is agreed and understood that
      reference  will  be made  to  facts  existing  as of the  Closing  Date in
      determining whether the representations and warranties have been breached.
      All such representations and warranties shall survive the Closing, subject
      to the  limitations  set  forth  herein,  and  shall not be deemed to have
      merged into or by governed by the  closing  documents.  PURCHASER  has two
      years and one day after the Closing Date to file against  SELLER,  subject
      to the terms of the  immediately  preceding two sentences,  an action in a
      court of  competent  jurisdiction  for any  breach of the  warranties  and
      representations  set forth herein.  After such two year and one day period
      PURCHASER  shall no longer have the right to prosecute  such claim against
      SELLER or any  partner  of SELLER.  For the  purposes  hereof,  the phrase
      "SELLER's  knowledge" or similar  phrases shall be defined to mean that no
      fact or circumstance has come to the attention of Mr. John Watts, a Senior
      Vice President of First PW Growth Properties,  Inc. ("PW Growth"), general
      partner of Paine Webber Growth Properties LP ("PWGP"),  PWGP and PW Growth
      being the general  partners of SELLER,  which would  otherwise  qualify or
      contradict the representation or warranty made.

            If any  representation or warranty above is known by PURCHASER prior
      to Closing,  to be untrue in any  material  respect and is not remedied by
      SELLER prior to Closing, PURCHASER may either (i) terminate this Contract,
      in which event the  Earnest  Money  shall be  returned  to  PURCHASER  and
      neither  party  shall have any further  rights or duties  pursuant to this
      Contract  except as  expressly  provided  for  herein;  or (ii)  waive its
      objections  to any such untrue  representation  or warranty and close this
      transaction.

      From the date hereof until the Closing Date or earlier termination of this
Contract, SELLER shall:

            (a) At no cost or expense to PURCHASER, operate, maintain and repair
      the Property or cause the same to be operated, maintained and repaired, in
      a prudent and businesslike manner as if SELLER intended to continue to own
      the Property;

           (b)  Deliver  to  PURCHASER  once a  month  during  the  term of this
      Contract a current rent roll for the Property;

            (c) Keep,  observe,  and perform its  obligations  as landlord under
      each of the Tenant Leases,  and not terminate or cause the  termination of
      any Tenant Lease except in the ordinary course of business;

            (d) Not enter into any  written or oral  service  contract  or other
      agreement with respect to the Property that will not be fully performed by
      SELLER on or before the Closing  Date,  or that will not be  cancelable by
      PURCHASER on thirty (30) days prior written  notice  without  liability to
      PURCHASER  on or after the  Closing  Date,  without  first  obtaining  the
      written  consent  of  PURCHASER,  which  consent  PURCHASER  agrees to not
      unreasonably withhold or delay;

            (e) SELLER shall not enter into new Tenant Leases or modify or amend
      existing  Tenant Leases  without the prior  written  consent of PURCHASER,
      which consent  shall not be  unreasonably  withheld or delayed;  provided,
      however that notwithstanding the foregoing,  SELLER may execute new Tenant
      Leases and modify or amend  existing  Tenant  Leases so long as the rental
      and other sums due and payable  thereunder  are at a rate of not less than
      ninety-five  percent (95%) of the rental and other sums presently  charged
      Tenants for similar space under existing Tenant Leases entered into within
      the last sixty (60) days,  the Tenant  Leases are on the standard  form of
      lease utilized by SELLER, and the tenancy does not exceed the maximum term
      then being offered for Tenant Leases within the last sixty (60) days prior
      to the  Effective  Date of this Contract (but in no event to exceed twelve
      (12) months, including any options to renew);

            (f) Not  grant  any  bonus,  free  months'  rental,  rebate or other
      concession  to any present  Tenant  (except as currently set forth in such
      Tenant's  existing  lease) or future  Tenant of the  Property  that  would
      extend  beyond the Closing Date except in the ordinary  course of business
      and as approved by  PURCHASER,  and  PURCHASER  agrees that such  approval
      shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

            (g) Advise  PURCHASER  promptly of any  litigation,  arbitration  or
      administrative  hearing  before  any  governmental  agency  concerning  or
      affecting  the  Property  which is  instituted  or  threatened  after  the
      Effective Date; and

            (h) Forward to PURCHASER copies of all notices of default of SELLER,
      as Landlord under the Tenant Leases, received by SELLER from any Tenant.

      8.  PURCHASER'S REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS.

      PURCHASER represents,  warrants,  covenants, and agrees with SELLER to the
following as of the date this  Contract is fully  executed and as of the Closing
Date:

            (a) PURCHASER has the full right,  power,  and authority to purchase
      the Property from SELLER as provided in this Contract and to carry out its
      obligations  hereunder,  and all required action  (corporate or otherwise)
      necessary to authorize  PURCHASER to enter into this Contract and to carry
      out its obligations hereunder has been taken.

            (b) PURCHASER  agrees to indemnify and hold SELLER harmless from and
      against any mechanics' and  materialmen's  liens or other liens or claims,
      suits, actions, debts, liabilities,  damages, costs, charges and expenses,
      including  court costs and reasonable  attorneys'  fees,  which SELLER may
      suffer or incur by reason of any action  taken by  PURCHASER  prior to the
      Closing Date in connection with PURCHASER's inspection, testing, studying,
      and examination of the Property.  This  indemnification  shall survive the
      termination of this Contract or the consummation of this  transaction,  as
      may be applicable, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained
      herein.

            (c)  PURCHASER  shall  restore  the  Property  substantially  to its
      condition existing prior to any tests or studies conducted by PURCHASER if
      any damage or change in condition of the Property  results from such tests
      or  studies.  Such  obligation  shall  survive  the  termination  of  this
      Contract, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein.

            (d) The execution and performance of this Contract by PURCHASER will
      not result in a breach of, or default under, the terms of any agreement or
      other instrument to which PURCHASER is bound.

            (e)  There  are no  attachments,  executions,  assignments  for  the
      benefit of  creditors,  receiverships,  conservatorships,  or voluntary or
      involuntary  proceedings  in  bankruptcy  or pursuant to any other  debtor
      relief laws  contemplated  or filed by PURCHASER or, to the best knowledge
      of PURCHASER, pending against PURCHASER.

      9. ENTRY ON PROPERTY  PRIOR TO CLOSING.  From and after the Effective Date
of this  Contract,  and so long as this  Contract  is in effect,  PURCHASER  and
PURCHASER's  representatives,  agents or consultants may enter upon the Property
for purposes of inspecting the Property;  provided, however, PURCHASER shall not
permit any liens to attach to the  Property  by reason of the  exercise  of such
rights or unreasonably interfere with the rights of any party then in possession
of the Property pursuant to Tenant Leases.

      10. CLOSING.  Subject to the terms of this Contract, the purchase and sale
of the Property  ("Closing") shall be closed in the offices of the Title Company
(or such other place as may be mutually  agreed to by SELLER and  PURCHASER)  at
10:00 a.m.  San  Antonio,  Texas time on or before the date which is thirty (30)
days after the updated and recertified Survey has been reviewed by PURCHASER and
PURCHASER has elected to continue with this  transaction as evidenced by written
notice  of such  election  to  SELLER,  or such  other  date  and time as may be
mutually agreed upon in writing by SELLER and PURCHASER (the "Closing Date"). In
the event that HUD and the Lender, through no fault or delay of PURCHASER,  have
not given preliminary approval (without any material adverse change in the terms
and conditions of the Loan from Lender) to the sale of the Property to PURCHASER
and the  assumption  of the Loan by  PURCHASER by the Closing  Date,  SELLER and
PURCHASER  agree that  PURCHASER,  at its election  and upon  written  notice to
SELLER on or before the scheduled  Closing Date, may elect to extend the Closing
Date for a period  of sixty  (60)  days in  order  to  obtain  such  preliminary
approvals;  provided,  however, that SELLER and PURCHASER agree that the Closing
shall occur within  seven (7) days after such  preliminary  approvals  have been
obtained. In the event that such approvals have not been obtained by the Closing
Date through no fault or delay of either SELLER or  PURCHASER,  the Closing Date
may be extended as described  in the  immediately  preceding  sentence by either
SELLER or  PURCHASER  with the Closing to occur within seven (7) days after such
preliminary  approvals  have been  obtained.  At  Closing,  SELLER,  at SELLER's
expense,  shall  deliver to  PURCHASER  and/or  deposit in escrow with the Title
Company which shall act in accordance  with SELLER's  escrow  instructions,  the
following:

            (a)  A  Special  Warranty  Deed  in  form  acceptable  to  PURCHASER
      conveying good and  indefeasible  title in fee simple to the Property free
      and  clear  of  any  and  all  liens,  leases,  tenancies,   encumbrances,
      conditions,  easements,  assessments,  restrictions,  and other conditions
      except for the following:

           (1) general real estate taxes and assessments for the year of closing
      and other subsequent years not yet due and payable; and

           (2) the Permitted Encumbrances.

            (b) A copy of the Commitment  marked to reflect the agreement of the
      Title Company to issue an Owner's Title Policy of Insurance  (the "Owner's
      Policy")  pursuant to the  Commitment in the amount of the Purchase  Price
      insuring  good  and  indefeasible  fee  simple  title to the  Property  in
      PURCHASER  subject  only to the  Permitted  Encumbrances  and the standard
      printed  exceptions in the standard form of Owner's Title Policy issued in
      the State of Texas including,  but not limited to,  restrictions of record
      which are  Permitted  Encumbrances,  taxes for the current and  subsequent
      years,  and subsequent  assessments  for prior years due to change in land
      usage or ownership.  Any exception for the rights of parties in possession
      shall,   to  the  extent  allowed  by  the  applicable   title   insurance
      regulations,  be amended  and/or  endorsed  to read  "Rights of parties in
      possession  pursuant to  unrecorded  tenant  leases" or similar  language.
      PURCHASER, at its option, may have the standard printed exception relating
      to survey,  area and  boundaries  endorsed  to the  extent  allowed by the
      applicable  title insurance  regulations to read "Shortages in Area," with
      the cost of such endorsement being paid by PURCHASER.

           (c) Tax statements from all taxing authorities  showing no delinquent
      taxes.

            (d)  Possession of the Property free of all leases and/or  tenancies
      other than the Tenant Leases.

            (e) A Bill of Sale and  Assignment  containing  warranties  of title

      11. PRORATIONS.  General real estate taxes and other assessments,  if any,
for the then current year relating to the Property shall be prorated as of 11:59
p.m. San Antonio, Texas time on the day prior to the Closing Date. SELLER agrees
to pay all taxes and  assessments for the years prior to the year of Closing and
to furnish  PURCHASER with a certificate or  certificates  from the  appropriate
taxing  authorities  evidencing that all such prior taxes have been paid. SELLER
shall also be responsible  for taxes for the year in which the Closing occurs up
to the Closing Date as specified  above,  and PURCHASER  agrees to pay taxes for
the year of Closing from and after the Closing Date.  SELLER shall be liable for
any deferred taxes and assessments  that become due by reason of any changed use
of the Property  occurring  prior to the Closing.  PURCHASER shall be liable for
any deferred taxes and assessments  that become due by reason of any changed use
of the Property  occurring as of or  subsequent  to the Closing.  All normal and
customarily  proratable  items not  otherwise  provided  for  herein,  including
without  limitation,  rental and other  revenue  and income  (including  but not
limited to cable television  revenue,  pay telephone revenue,  and laundry lease
revenue), payments and expenses for Maintenance,  Service and Leasing Agreements
assumed  by  the  PURCHASER  pursuant  to  the  terms  hereof,  lease  payments,
utilities,  interest on the Loan and personal property taxes,  shall be prorated
as of 11:59 p.m San  Antonio,  Texas time on the day prior to the Closing  Date,
SELLER being  charged and credited for all of same up to such date and PURCHASER
being  charged  and  credited  for all of same after  such  date.  If the actual
amounts to be prorated  under this  Paragraph 11 are not known as of the Closing
Date,  the  prorations  shall be made on the  basis of the  best  evidence  then
available,  and thereafter,  when actual figures are received, a cash settlement
will be made between SELLER and  PURCHASER.  Such final  reconciliation  between
SELLER and PURCHASER shall be made within six (6) months after the Closing Date,
provided,  however,  that if current tax figures are still not  available,  such
final reconciliation between SELLER and PURCHASER with respect to taxes shall be
made  within one (1) month  after the tax  statements  for the year in which the
Closing occurs have been issued.  These agreements shall survive Closing and not
be merged therein.

      No proration shall be made for delinquent rents existing as of the Closing
Date. With respect to such delinquent  rents,  PURCHASER shall make a reasonable
attempt to collect the same for SELLER's  benefit  after the Closing Date in the
usual course of operation of the Property and such collections, if any, less any
reasonable cost of collection and any portion thereof attributable to any period
from and after the  Closing  Date,  shall be remitted  to SELLER  promptly  upon
receipt by PURCHASER;  provided, however, nothing contained herein shall require
PURCHASER to institute  any lawsuit or other  collection  procedures  to collect
such delinquent  rents. In this connection,  all amounts  collected from tenants
owing  delinquent  rents shall be applied  first to current  rental  periods and
second to satisfy  rental  obligations  arising  from past  rental  periods,  in
inverse order of maturity.  PURCHASER  need not attempt to collect rent which is
more than six (6) months past due. At the Closing  SELLER shall pay to PURCHASER
in cash the  amount  of any  prepaid  rents  paid to SELLER  by  tenants  of the
Property for periods  commencing as of the Closing Date.  These Agreements shall
survive Closing and not be merged therein.

      SELLER shall be credited for the impound  account  balances  held by or on
behalf of the Lender as of Closing for taxes and assessments,  such credit to be
applied to SELLER'S  estimated  liability for taxes and assessments for the year
of Closing  and the funds in any escrow held by Lender for the benefit of SELLER
for the payment of such taxes and  assessments  shall be  assigned to  PURCHASER
(but such funds are not part of the  Property  being  conveyed to  PURCHASER  in
consideration of PURCHASER'S  payment of the Purchase Price).  To the extent the
balance in such  account  exceeds  SELLER's  estimated  liability  for taxes and
assessments  for the year of Closing,  such balance  shall be due and payable by
PURCHASER  to  SELLER  at  Closing.  Included  in  the  Purchase  Price  is  the
Replacement Reserve Escrow, and SELLER shall assign to PURCHASER all of SELLER's
right,  title and interest in and to said  accounts.  Any escrows for  insurance
premiums held by the Lender on behalf of PURCHASER  shall be returned to SELLER,
and PURCHASER  shall be required to replenish such escrows with its own funds at
Closing as may be required by the Lender.

           12.  CLOSING  COSTS.  At Closing,  closing costs and expenses of sale
shall be borne as follows:

            (a)   SELLER shall be obligated for and shall pay:

                  (i) The premium for the Owner's  Policy of Title  Insurance in
            the form to be delivered  by SELLER as set forth in Paragraph  10(b)
            above.

                  (ii) The  cost of the  Survey  (including  having  the  Survey

                  (iii) Tax certificates;

                  (iv)  SELLER's attorneys' fees;

            assumption of the Loan by PURCHASER; provided, however, that if said
            assumption fees and costs exceed  $10,000.00 and SELLER is unwilling
            to pay such  excess,  SELLER  may, by written  notice to  PURCHASER,
            terminate this Contract.  It is expressly understood and agreed that
            such  assumption  fees and/or costs do not include amounts which HUD
            may require SELLER to pay on the basis of the  Preliminary  Audit or
            the Final  Audit,  as such terms are  hereinafter  defined.  If such
            termination  notice is given to PURCHASER,  PURCHASER shall have the
            right to pay such excess,  in which event this Contract shall remain
            in full force and effect and the termination  notice by SELLER shall
            be null and void.

                (v) Costs of inspections  and other due diligence costs incurred

            such  other  special  title  insurance  that  may  be  requested  by
            PURCHASER; and

      All other closing costs not mentioned herein and for which no provision is
made in this Contract  shall be paid by SELLER and/or  PURCHASER as is customary
in San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas.

      13.  INDEMNITY.  PURCHASER  agrees to indemnify,  hold harmless and defend
SELLER from and against any and all  claims,  demands,  causes of action,  loss,
liabilities,  damages,  costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees
and court  costs) of every kind and  character  asserted  against or incurred by
SELLER at any time and from time to time by reason of or  arising as a result of
the ownership,  occupancy, operation, use, and/or maintenance of the Property by
PURCHASER from and after the Closing Date. SELLER shall indemnify, hold harmless
and defend  PURCHASER  from and against any and all claims,  demands,  causes of
action, loss,  liabilities,  damages,  costs and expenses (including  reasonable
attorneys' fees and court costs) of every kind and character asserted against or
incurred by  PURCHASER at any time and from time to time by reason of or arising
as a result of the ownership,  occupancy,  operation, use, and/or maintenance of
the  Property  by SELLER  prior to the  Closing  Date.  The  provisions  of this
Paragraph 13 shall survive the Closing.

      14.  CONDEMNATION  PRIOR TO CLOSING.  If,  prior to  Closing,  notice of a
condemnation  or eminent  domain  proceeding  affecting  the  Property  shall be
issued,  or a condemnation or eminent domain  proceeding  affecting the Property
commenced,  or all or any portion of the Property  shall be taken for any public
or  quasi-public  purpose by a lawful  power or authority by the exercise of the
right of  condemnation  or  eminent  domain  or by  agreement  in lieu  thereof,
PURCHASER,  in  PURCHASER's  sole  discretion,  shall  have  the  option  of (i)
canceling this Contract by giving written notice to SELLER and the Title Company
within  five (5) days of  PURCHASER's  receipt of written  notice from SELLER of
such taking,  in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to PURCHASER by
the Title  Company  within  two (2)  business  days after  notification  of such
cancellation  and neither SELLER nor PURCHASER  shall have any further duties or
obligations hereunder except as expressly provided for herein or (ii) proceed to
close this  transaction,  in which event  SELLER  shall  assign to  PURCHASER at
closing all of SELLER's  right,  title and interest in and to any award or other
payment  arising from such  condemnation,  eminent domain or other taking by any
governmental  authority,  and  PURCHASER and SELLER shall  otherwise  proceed to
close this transaction as provided herein, with the new legal description of the
Property then remaining being used for the Special  Warranty Deed.  SELLER shall
also have the right to terminate this Contract upon a taking or  condemnation of
all of the Property by giving  written notice to PURCHASER and the Title Company
within five (5)  business  days of SELLER's  receipt of notice of such taking or
condemnation, in which event the Earnest Money shall be returned to PURCHASER by
the Title  Company  within  two (2)  business  days after  notification  of such
cancellation  and neither SELLER nor PURCHASER  shall have any further duties or
obligations  hereunder  except as  expressly  provided  for herein.  The parties
hereto  agree to have the  rights  and  duties  set forth in this  Section  with
respect to condemnation and eminent domain rather than the rights and duties set
forth in the Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act, Texas Property Code Section 5.007.

      15.  BROKER'S FEE. If, as and when the  transaction  contemplated  by this
Contract  is  consummated,  SELLER  agrees to pay a broker's  fee for  brokerage
services in connection  with this  transaction to each of Commercial  Industrial
Properties Co., and CB Commercial Real Estate Group,  Inc. (herein each called a
"Broker" and  collectively  called  "Brokers") in an amount equal to one percent
(1%) of the  Purchase  Price.  Each  Broker  may  divide  its fee with any other
licensed real estate brokers or salesmen but, notwithstanding any such agreement
for division of the fee, SELLER and PURCHASER shall be fully protected (and each
Broker does hereby agree to  indemnify  SELLER and  PURCHASER  against any loss,
damage,  expenses  or fees  incurred  by  SELLER  and/or  PURCHASER  because  of
agreements  by such  Broker to divide  such fee) in paying the fee to the Broker
provided  for herein.  SELLER and  PURCHASER  represent  and warrant each to the
other that except for the Brokers no broker or agent is  representing  either of
them in this transaction.  Should any other broker or agent assert a claim for a
fee or  commission  in  connection  with this sale,  the party through whom such
claim is shown or alleged to have been derived shall be solely  responsible  for
the payment of such fee or  commission  or the defense of a claim in  connection
with the  payment  of any such fee or  commission.  Each party  indemnifies  and
agrees to hold the other harmless of any such claim,  cause of action or damages
occasioned by a breach of the herein contained agreement,  including the payment
of reasonable attorneys' fees in defense of same.

      16.  DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

            (a) In the event that this  transaction  is not  consummated  due to
      SELLER's default for any reason, including, without limitation,  inability
      to  furnish  the title  contemplated  hereunder  or failure or breach in a
      material  respect of any  warranty,  covenant  or  representation  made by
      SELLER  hereunder,  PURCHASER shall in PURCHASER's  sole discretion and as
      PURCHASER's  sole remedy  hereunder,  either (i) cancel  this  Contract by
      giving  written  notice to SELLER and the Title Company in which event the
      Earnest  Money shall be returned to PURCHASER by the Title  Company  after
      notification of such  cancellation  and neither SELLER nor PURCHASER shall
      have any  further  duties or  obligations  hereunder  except as  expressly
      provided for herein;  or (ii) proceed to enforce  specific  performance of
      this Contract by SELLER and complete the transaction  contemplated by this
      Contract,  waiving  such  defects  in title or such  failure  or breach of
      warranties, covenants and representations.

            (b) In the event that this  transaction  is not  consummated  due to
      PURCHASER's  default,  SELLER's  sole  remedy  shall be the receipt of the
      Earnest Money as liquidated  damages,  it being  mutually  covenanted  and
      agreed that in the event of PURCHASER's  default  SELLER's  actual damages
      would be  difficult,  if not  impossible,  to ascertain  and therefore the
      payment  of the  Earnest  Money to SELLER in the event of such  default by
      PURCHASER shall not operate as a penalty but shall  constitute  reasonable
      liquidated damages.

      17. ASSIGNMENT OF CONTRACT.  The rights, titles and interests of PURCHASER
under this Contract  shall be assignable  and  transferable  by PURCHASER to any
affiliate of PURCHASER,  subject to such proposed  assignee being  acceptable to
both the Lender and HUD, at any time upon the proposed  assignee  delivering  to
SELLER a written  instrument  executed by PURCHASER and the proposed assignee in
which such proposed  assignee  assumes the  obligations of PURCHASER  under this
Contract. No consent of SELLER shall be required for such assignment.  Any other
proposed assignment shall require the prior written consent of SELLER. Upon such
permitted  assignment  the  PURCHASER  named herein shall remain liable only for
such claims,  demands,  suits, causes of action, losses,  liabilities,  damages,
costs and  expenses  (including  reasonable  attorneys'  fees and  court  costs)
resulting  from  PURCHASER's  inspection of the Property  during the  Inspection
Period and presence on the Property prior to the Closing Date.

      18.  NOTICES.  Any  notices to be given by either  party to this  Contract
shall be given in writing and may be effected  by personal  delivery,  facsimile

fire or other  casualty on or after the Effective Date but prior to the Closing,
and the cost of repair of such damage equals or exceeds  $100,000.00,  PURCHASER
shall, subject to the terms of the Loan Documents and the right of the Lender in
and to any insurance proceeds, have the option of (i) terminating this Contract,
whereupon the Earnest  Money shall be returned to PURCHASER  and neither  SELLER
nor PURCHASER shall have any further rights or obligations  hereunder  except as
expressly  provided  for  herein or (ii)  closing  this  transaction;  provided,
however,  that with respect to the right provided for in clause (ii) immediately
preceding,  PURCHASER,  subject to the terms of the Loan Documents and the right
of the Lender in and to any insurance proceeds, shall be entitled to receive any
and all insurance  proceeds paid in connection with such casualty,  and SELLER's
rights in and to such proceeds shall be assigned to PURCHASER. If necessary, the
Closing  Date shall be extended to a date  mutually  agreed to by the parties to
allow a determination  of the repair cost.  SELLER hereby agrees to use diligent
efforts to settle any  insurance  claims.  PURCHASER  shall give SELLER  written
notice of  PURCHASER's  election  within  fifteen (15) days after (a) SELLER has
given  PURCHASER  written  notice of such  casualty loss and the repair cost has
been  determined  and (b) Lender has given  notice to SELLER  whether  insurance
proceeds will be made available for restoration and repair. Subject to the terms
of the  immediately  following  paragraph of this  Paragraph  24, if the cost of
repairing said casualty loss is less than  $100,000.00,  and if PURCHASER elects
to close this  transaction,  SELLER  shall  promptly  repair such damage and the
Closing shall be postponed for such period of time as is reasonably necessary to
effect such repairs. In addition, if SELLER shall repair the Property, PURCHASER
shall have the right to inspect the  Property  during and after such repairs are
being  made,  and  PURCHASER's  obligation  to close this  transaction  shall be
conditioned  upon such repairs being made in a manner  satisfactory to PURCHASER
(as PURCHASER may  reasonably  determine).  The parties hereto agree to have the
rights and duties set forth in this Section with respect to casualty loss rather
than the rights and duties set forth in the Vendor and Purchaser Risk Act, Texas
Property Code Section 5.007.

      Notwithstanding  any term or provision  to the contrary  contained in this
Paragraph 24, in the event that the Lender requires the insurance proceeds to be
applied to the reduction of the Loan, and if the cost of repairing or rebuilding
the Property to its prior condition exceeds $50,000.00, then either PURCHASER or
SELLER shall have the right to terminate  this Contract  upon written  notice to
the other,  whereupon  the Earnest  Money shall be  returned  to  PURCHASER  and
neither  SELLER nor  PURCHASER  shall  have any  further  rights or  obligations
hereunder except as expressly provided for herein.

      25. NOTICE TO PURCHASERS OF REAL ESTATE.  IN ACCORDANCE  WITH THE TERMS OF
THE REAL ESTATE LICENSE ACT OF TEXAS, PURCHASER IS HEREBY ADVISED THAT IT SHOULD
HAVE AN  ABSTRACT  COVERING  THE  PROPERTY  EXAMINED  BY AN  ATTORNEY OF ITS OWN
SELECTION, OR BE FURNISHED WITH OR OBTAIN A POLICY OF TITLE INSURANCE. PURCHASER
ACKNOWLEDGES RECEIPT OF THIS NOTICE BY EXECUTION OF THIS CONTRACT.

      26. EFFECTIVE DATE. The phrase "Effective Date" or "Effective Date of this
Contract" shall mean the latest of the dates by which SELLER, PURCHASER, Brokers
and Title Company have executed a counterpart of this Contract.

      27. DAY FOR  PERFORMANCE.  In the event the day for which  performance  is
scheduled  hereunder is a Saturday,  Sunday,  or a holiday  observed by national
banking  associations in San Antonio,  Texas,  then the day for such performance
shall be the immediately  following  business day. A "business day" shall mean a
day on which the  principal  offices of national and state  chartered  banks are
open to do business in San Antonio, Bexar County, Texas.

      28. LENDER AND HUD APPROVAL.  This Contract is expressly  conditioned upon
 the following:

            (a) Preliminary  approval by HUD of the transactions as set forth in
      Form  HUD  92266,   Application  for  Transfer  of  Physical  Assets,  and
      supporting  documents  submitted  to HUD  without  any  qualifications  or
      conditions which must be satisfied before HUD will grant final approval of
      the  Application  for Transfer of Physical Assets except (i) evidence that
      the transfer of the Property to PURCHASER has occurred (including delivery
      of recorded and unrecorded  closing  documents);  (ii) if required by HUD,
      the execution by PURCHASER of a new Regulatory  Agreement;  (iii) delivery
      of and any  modification  or amendment to the  organizational  or enabling
      documents of PURCHASER;  (iv) delivery of PURCHASER's  balance sheet;  (v)
      delivery of mortgagee's  statement of all trust and escrow  accounts as of
      the  Closing  Date;  (vi)  delivery  of an  endorsement  to  the  existing
      mortgagee  policy of title  insurance;  (vii) delivery of the HUD approved
      legal opinion;  (viii)  delivery of a rental  schedule;  or (ix) any other
      conditions or qualifications that are mutually acceptable to PURCHASER and
      Seller.  Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  the  immediately  preceding
      sentence,  Seller agrees that if, as a condition or qualification to final
      approval of the Application for Transfer of Physical Assets,  HUD requires
      an  audited   interim   financial   statement  (in  accordance   with  HUD
      requirements)  for all or any portion of the period from March 31, 1996 to
      the Closing  Date  ("Final  Audit"),  Seller,  at  Seller's  sole cost and
      expense,  will perform such Final Audit and make all financial adjustments
      arising  from such  Final  Audit.  Such  Final  Audit  shall be limited to
      financial  matters  and, in  particular,  shall not apply to any  physical
      audit of the Property.  PURCHASER  agrees to diligently  and  continuously
      pursue  HUD  approval  and  to  timely  provide  all   documentation   and
      information  required  by either  HUD or  Lender.  If the  Final  Audit is
      required by HUD as a condition or  qualification  to final approval of the
      Application  for Transfer of Physical  Assets,  Seller shall,  at Closing,
      escrow with the Title  Company  ("Audit  Escrow")  the sum of Ten Thousand
      Dollars  ($10,000.00)  from the cash  portion of the Purchase  Price.  The
      Audit Escrow shall be held and utilized to secure Seller's  obligation (x)
      to  deliver  the  Final  Audit and (y) to make any  financial  adjustments
      arising  from such Final  Audit.  Upon  completion  of the Final Audit and
      finalization of any adjustments  arising from such Final Audit,  Buyer and
      PURCHASER  shall  direct the Title  Company to deliver the Audit Escrow to
      Seller.  The Audit Escrow shall be invested in an interest bearing account
      as  directed by Seller,  and all  interest  on the Audit  Escrow  shall be
      payable to Seller upon demand.

            (b) On or before  the  expiration  of ten (10) days after the end of
      the Inspection  period,  SELLER, at SELLER'S sole cost and expense,  shall
      commission an audited interim financial statement (in the form required by
      HUD)  for  the  period  from  January  1,  1996  through  March  31,  1996
      ("Preliminary Audit"). SELLER shall diligently cause the Preliminary Audit
      to be completed and  delivered to HUD for approval.  SELLER shall make any
      financial  adjustments  arising from such Preliminary Audit on or prior to
      the Closing  Date.  SELLER and Buyer's  obligation  to close is subject to
      approval by HUD of the Preliminary  Audit on or prior to the Closing Date.
      In the event HUD does not approve the  Preliminary  Audit on or before the
      Closing  Date  (as the  Closing  Date  may be  extended  as set  forth  in
      Paragraph 10), this Contract shall automatically terminate and the Earnest
      Money shall be returned to PURCHASER.

            (c) SELLER'S  obligation to sell the Property in accordance with the
      terms  hereof,  and  PURCHASER's  obligation  to purchase  the Property in
      accordance  with the terms hereof,  is  contingent  and  conditioned  upon
      Lender consenting (which consent and related assumption documents required
      by Lender shall be in form and substance  reasonably  acceptable to SELLER
      and PURCHASER) to the sale of the Property to PURCHASER and the assumption
      of the Loan by PURCHASER in  accordance  with the terms and  provisions of
      the Loan Documents by the Closing Date (the original Closing Date provided
      for  herein  being  subject  to a  sixty  (60)  day  extension  to  obtain
      preliminary approval, if necessary, as described in Paragraph 10 above).

            (d) In the event  that  Lender  and HUD  consent  to the sale of the
      Property to PURCHASER  and the  assumption  of the Loan by  PURCHASER  but
      condition such consent upon SELLER remaining liable under the terms of the
      Loan Documents for matters occurring after the Closing Date, SELLER may at
      its option either elect to continue with this  transaction or to terminate
      this  transaction;  and in the event that SELLER  elects to continue  with
      this  transaction,  PURCHASER shall be required to execute a Deed of Trust
      to Secure  Assumption  in form and  substance  acceptable  to  SELLER  and
      PURCHASER and covering the Property to secure the performance by PURCHASER
      of the obligations  being assumed under the Loan  Documents.  In the event
      that  PURCHASER is not  preliminarily  approved by HUD for the purchase of
      the Property and  assumption  of the Loan by the Closing Date (as same may
      be extended  pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 10 of this Contract),
      this  Contract  shall  terminate,  the Earnest  Money shall be returned to
      PURCHASER, and neither SELLER nor PURCHASER shall have any further rights,
      duties or obligations hereunder except as expressly set forth herein.

            (e) SELLER and  PURCHASER  agree,  and the closing  documents  shall
      provide,  that if final approval is not given by HUD by the date set forth
      in the HUD preliminary  approval letter or any subsequent date pursuant to
      an extension  granted by HUD,  then  PURCHASER  and SELLER shall take such
      action as may be necessary  and required to effect a  reconveyance  of the
      Property  to SELLER in order that the  parties  may be  returned  to their
      positions prior to the conveyance of the Property to PURCHASER;  provided,
      however,  that PURCHASER shall remain  responsible for matters relating to
      the Property that occurred during PURCHASER's ownership of the Property.

      29.  ESTOPPEL LETTER FROM LENDER.  PURCHASER's  obligation to purchase the
Property in accordance with the terms hereof is contingent and conditioned  upon
PURCHASER  receiving from the Lender and/or HUD on or before the Closing Date an
Estoppel  Letter ("the  Estoppel  Letter") in form and  substance  substantially
similar to the estoppel letter attached hereto as Exhibit C.

      EXECUTED  as of the dates set forth  below the  signatures  of the parties
hereto, but effective as of the Effective Date.

STATE OF TEXAS
                          KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS THAT:
COUNTY OF BEXAR

This  Agreement  is made this day  between  the NOB HILL  PARTNERS,  hereinafter
referred to  collectively  as "NOB",  and the CITY OF SAN ANTONIO by and through
the SAN ANTONIO WATER SYSTEM, hereinafter referred to as "CITY", for the purpose
and under the terns and conditions as follows, to-wit:

WHEREAS,  NOB owns real  property  and  improvements  located  at New City Block
14191,  Lot 7 also described as 7626 Callaghan Road, San Antonio,  Bexar County,
Texas, hereinafter referred to as the "subject property"; and,

WHEREAS,  CITY owns a sixteen (16) foot sanitary sewer easement over,  under and
across the  subject  property,  said  easement  being filed for record in Volume
6600, Page 239, of the Bexar County Plat Records; and,

WHEREAS, NOB has constructed improvements on the subject property in the form of
open carports to provide covered parking and tennis courts to its tenants; and,

WHEREAS,  the said  carports  and  tennis  courts  will  encroach  upon the said
sanitary  sewer  easement,  and the  parties  hereto  desire  to  establish  the
liability, conditions and limitations regarding said encroachment;

NOW THEREFORE, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT:

SECTION 1. For and in consideration of CITY hereby  permitting and consenting to

harmless from any claims,  damage or loss of whatever kind or nature,  including
any expenses of  litigation  or defense,  and  irrespective  of fault,  save and
except for fault proven to have  resulted  from the  negligence  of CITY,  which
claims,   damage,  or  loss  arise  from  the  construction,   operation  and/or
maintenance  of said  carports  and tennis  courts or the  operation of vehicles
under and around  said  carports  and  tennis  courts  including,  but not being
limited to claims for damage to person or property  resulting  from the offering

CITY'S rights, legal or equitable, in and to any part of the said sanitary sewer
easement,  and that NOB shall upon its  receipt of the CITY'S  written  request,
remove,  at its  sole  expense,  any  portion  or  portions  of the  encroaching
improvements  necessary to allow CITY access to the said sanitary sewer easement
and any lines or other improvements located therein.

SECTION  3. NOB shall  promptly  reimburse  CITY for any and all  damages to any
sewer  improvements  located  within the subject  property,  and for any expense
incurred by CITY in the repair and/or  replacement  of such  improvements  which
damages  and/or  expenses are a result of the actions of NOB, or its  employees,
agents,  contractors or independent  contractors  in  constructing,  installing,
maintaining   or  operating   the   encroaching   carports  and  tennis   courts
improvements.

SECTION 4. This document is a contractual  transfer of risk, and is entered into
knowingly, and with full knowledge of its effect; and it is fully understood and
agreed that this agreement is given to induce the permission and consent of CITY
for the said  encroachment,  which  permission  and  consent  would not be given
absent this agreement.

                   THIRD AMENDMENT TO EARNEST MONEY CONTRACT

      This Third Amendment to Earnest Money Contract (this "Third Amendment") is
made and entered  into as of the 11th day of October,  1996,  by and between Nob
Hill Partners ("Seller"), and TVO Realty Partners ("Purchaser").

                                   RECITALS

      A. Seller and Purchaser  have entered into an Earnest Money Contract dated
June 3, 1996 which has been amended by First Amendment to Earnest Money Contract
dated July 9, 1996;  Second  Amendment to Earnest Money  Contract dated July 18,
1996; letter dated August 8, 1996 (extending Inspection Period to 11:59 p.m. San
Antonio, Texas time on August 12, 1996); letter dated August 15, 1996 (extending
Inspection Period to 11:59 p.m. San Antonio,  Texas time on August 19, 1996) for
the purchase and sale of certain real and personal  property  described  therein
and more commonly known as the Nob Hill Apartments located in San Antonio, Texas
(said Earnest Money Contract, as amended, being herein called the "Contract").

      B.  Seller  and  Purchaser  desire to amend the terms of the  Contract  to
reflect a reduction in the Purchase Price to Nine Million Five Hundred  Thousand
Dollars ($9,500,000.00) and to otherwise amend the Contract as provided herein.

                                  AGREEMENTS

      For and in consideration of the premises hereof, the agreements  contained
herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto,  Seller and Purchaser agree
as follows:

      1.    Any  capitalized  term not defined  herein shall have the meaning  
assigned to such term in the Contract.

      2.    The Contract is amended as follows:

            a. The first sentence of Section 2, "PURCHASE PRICE," is deleted and
      replaced with the following sentence: "The purchase price for the Property
      shall  be  NINE  MILLION  FIVE   HUNDRED   THOUSAND  AND  NO/100   DOLLARS
      ($9,500,000.00) (hereinafter referred to as the 'Purchase Price')."

            b.  The  amount  of  "$10,000,000.00"  found  in the  first  line of
      Paragraph 2(b) is deleted and the amount of "$9,500,000.00" is inserted in
      lieu thereof.

            c. Purchaser acknowledges that except as expressly set forth in this
      Paragraph  2.c of this Third  Amendment,  Purchaser  has completed its due
      diligence with respect to the Property,  has satisfied itself with respect
      thereto,  and has no right to terminate the Contract  based on the results
      of such due  diligence  pursuant to the terms of Section 5 or Section 6 of
      the  Contract.  In  accordance  with the  provisions  of  Section 5 of the
      Contract, contemporaneously with the deposit of an executed counterpart of
      this Third Amendment with the Title Company, Mr. Chris Haynes, counsel for
      Purchaser,  shall  deposit  the  initial  $50,000  Earnest  Money  and the
      interest  accrued  thereon with the Title  Company,  and  Purchaser  shall
      deposit  the  additional  sum of  $50,000  with the Title  Company,  which
      additional sum and any interest  earned thereon shall be added to and also
      be part of the Earnest Money.  In the event that such Earnest Money is not
      deposited with the Title Company by Monday, October 21, 1996, then Seller,
      at its  option and by  written  notice to  Purchaser,  may  terminate  the
      Contract,  in which  event the  penultimate  sentence  of Section 5 of the
      Contract shall be applicable. The Earnest Money when so deposited with the
      Title  Company,  shall be  nonrefundable  to Purchaser  other than for the
      following  provisions of the  Contract:  Paragraph  6(b)  (relating to the
      updated Survey);  Section 7 (representations  and warranties);  Section 14
      (Condemnation);  Paragraph 16(a) (Seller's  default);  Section 24 (Risk of
      Loss);  Section 28 (Lender and HUD  Approval);  and  Section 29  (Estoppel
      Letter from Lender).

            d. The first  sentence of Paragraph  6(b) of the Contract is revised
      to provide that Seller shall have the Survey updated to a current date and
      certified  to  Purchaser,  and shall  deliver the updated and  recertified
      Survey to Purchaser within twenty (20) days after the date that Seller has
      received  written  notice from the Title  Company  that the Earnest  Money
      (including the additional  $50,000.00 deposit) has been deposited with the
      Title  Company  pursuant  to the  terms  of  Paragraph  2.c of this  Third
      Amendment.

            e. The first sentence of Paragraph  28(b) of the Contract is deleted
      and replaced with the following sentence:  "On or before the expiration of
      ten (10) days after the date that Seller has received  written notice from
      the Title Company that the Earnest Money has been deposited with the Title
      Company  pursuant to the terms of Paragraph  2.c of this Third  Amendment,
      SELLER,  at SELLER's  sole cost and expense,  shall  commission an audited
      interim  financial  statement (in the form required by HUD) for the period
      from January 1, 1996 through August 31, 1996 ('Preliminary Audit')."

            f. Pursuant to the terms of Paragraph  2(c) of the Contract,  Seller
      and  Purchaser  understood  and  agreed  that part of the  Purchase  Price
      represented  consideration  to be  paid by  Purchaser  to  Seller  for the
      Replacement  Reserve  Account.  Subsequent to the execution of the Earnest
      Money  Contract,  HUD  (i)  consented  to the  release  of the  amount  of
      $90,000.00 (the "Released  Amount") from the  Replacement  Reserve Account
      for the purposes of making,  with respect to the  Property,  roof repairs,
      siding repairs,  and/or repairs to the water system (descaling),  and such
      funds were  subsequently  paid to, and are currently  being held by Seller
      and (ii)  agreed to a  reduction  in the amount of funds that needed to be
      kept in the Replacement  Reserve Account.  With respect to the Replacement
      Reserve Account:

                  (i) Seller  agrees that in the event the sale and  purchase of
            the Property is consummated,  the Released Amount shall be deposited
            by Seller in escrow with Lender at Closing and shall be used for the
            purposes of making  repairs to the  Property.  Seller and  Purchaser
            acknowledge  that Purchaser may desire repairs to the Property other
            than  the  exterior  repairs  for  which  the  Released  Amount  was
            released,  and Seller and Purchaser  agree that in such event Seller
            and  Purchaser  shall use their  reasonable  efforts  to obtain  the
            consent of HUD (and if required, the consent of the Lender), to such
            other  repairs as may be desired by Purchaser.  The Released  Amount
            shall be released to Purchaser  pursuant to such escrow agreement as
            Purchaser may enter into with Lender.

                  (ii) It is expressly  understood  and agreed that Seller shall
            own and have the right to have  distributed to it all "surplus cash"
            (as such term is defined in the Regulatory Agreement,  dated October
            20,  1993,  executed  in  connection  with  the  Loan).  Seller  and
            Purchaser agree that this surplus cash includes, without limitation,
            any amounts over and above the minimum balance of $123,842.00  which
            is to be  maintained in the  Replacement  Reserve  Account.  Monthly
            payments made by Seller to the Replacement  Reserve Account,  to the
            extent that such payments cause the  Replacement  Reserve Account to
            exceed  $123,842.00,  shall  also be deemed to be  surplus  cash and
            subject to being  distributed to Seller as provided herein, it being
            understood  that  the  Replacement  Reserve  Account  which is being
            assigned  to  Purchaser  by Seller in  connection  with the sale and
            purchase of the Property shall be in the amount of $123,842.00.

            g.  Paragraph 30 shall be added to the Contract and shall read as 
follows:

            30.   WAIVER  OF  CONTINGENCY  FOR  LEAD  BASED  PAINT   INSPECTION.
                  PURCHASER  HEREBY  WAIVES  ITS  OPPORTUNITY  TO CONDUCT A RISK
                  ASSESSMENT  OR   INSPECTION   FOR   LEAD-BASED   PAINT  AND/OR
                  LEAD-BASED PAINT HAZARDS. FURTHERMORE, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE
                  THE  EXECUTION  AND  DELIVERY OF THAT CERTAIN  "DISCLOSURE  OF
                  INFORMATION ON LEAD-BASED PAINT AND LEAD-BASED PAINT HAZARDS,"
                  AN UNEXECUTED COPY OF WHICH IS ATTACHED HERETO AS EXHIBIT A.

      3. Except as modified or amended herein, the Contract shall remain in full
force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

TVO Nob Hill Partners, L.P.
70 East Lake Street
Suite 600
Chicago, Illinois  60601

      Re:   Sale of the Nob Hill Apartments, San Antonio, Texas (the "Property")

Gentlemen:

      In connection  with the  referenced  matter,  Nob Hill  Partners,  a Texas
general partnership and the seller of the Property ("Seller"),  and TVO Nob Hill
Partners,  L.P., a Texas limited  partnership  and the purchaser of the Property
("Purchaser"), hereby agree as follows:

      1.  Purchaser  acknowledges  that it has no rights or  interests in and to
funds in excess of $123,842.00 held by Newport Mortgage Company, L.P. ("Lender")
under the terms and  provisions of that certain  Replacement  Reserve  Agreement
dated  October 20,  1993,  executed by Seller and Lender and  modified by letter
dated May 4, 1995 (the "Replacement  Reserve  Agreement").  It is understood and
agreed that all funds in excess of  $123,842.00  (the  "Excess  Funds")  held by
Lender under the Replacement  Reserve Agreement shall be the property of Seller;
at closing a credit  shall be shown on the closing  statement in favor of Seller
in the amount of the Excess  Funds,  with the entire amount of escrow funds held
under the Replacement Reserve Agreement  thereafter  belonging to Purchaser.  In
the event that the Department of Housing and Urban Development  ("HUD") requires
Lender to  disburse  the Excess  Funds to Seller due to Seller  being the former
owner of the Property,  Seller agrees to promptly  remit to Purchaser the Excess
Funds disbursed to Seller.

      2.  Purchaser  acknowledges  that Seller has  disclosed to Purchaser  that
Seller is holding funds in the aggregate  amount of  $126,113.17  [consisting of
the  sum of (i) (a)  $90,000;  (b)  $69,211.42;  and (c)  $15,734.11  less  (ii)
$48,832.36],  which  represents  funds which were  previously part of the escrow
funds deposited under the Replacement  Reserve  Agreement and are to be used for
repairs to the  Property.  Exhibit A to this letter  sets forth a  breakdown  of
these funds.  In connection  with the sale of the Property to Purchaser,  Seller
hereby assigns to Purchaser all of Seller's rights,  titles and interests in and
to said $126,113.17,  which Seller agrees to deliver to Purchaser at closing. In
the event  that  either HUD or Lender  would  require  that such  amount (or any
portion  thereof)  be placed in escrow  rather  than  being  held by  Purchaser,
Purchaser  shall be responsible  for depositing the required amount in escrow as
so  directed  by HUD or  Lender,  and  Purchaser  agrees to  indemnify  and hold
harmless Seller from any and all claims, damages, costs and expenses that may be
asserted  against Seller as a result of such amount being disbursed  directly to
Purchaser  and/or  Purchaser's  failure to so deposit  such  required  amount in
escrow.

      3.  Purchaser and Seller agree that they shall use  reasonable  efforts to
comply with the terms and  provisions  of that  certain  Letter  received by the
Purchaser on January 30, 1997, from the United States  Department of Housing and
Urban Development  ("HUD"), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
"Preliminary  Approval Letter") wherein  preliminary  approval was given for the
sale and purchase of the Property,  to the extent that such terms and conditions
are  performable by Purchaser or Seller,  as  appropriate.  Purchaser and Seller
agree that if final  approval is not given by HUD on or before  forty-five  (45)
working  days  from the  date of the  Preliminary  Approval  Letter  (such  date
estimated to be April 3, 1997),  or in the event that HUD agrees to an extension
of such date,  on or before  such  extended  date (but in any event on or before
December  31,  1997) for the  transfer of the  Property  as provided  for in the
Preliminary  Approval Letter, then Purchaser and Seller will take such action as
may be necessary and required to effect a reconveyance of the Property to Seller
in order  that the  parties  may be  returned  to their  positions  prior to the
conveyance of the Property to Purchaser; provided, however, that Purchaser shall
be  responsible  for  matters  relating to the  Property  that  occurred  during
Purchaser's ownership of the Property.

                 [Remainder of page intentionally left blank]

1.    TPA Application, Form HUD-92266 needs to be executed by the Mortgagee.

2.  Purchaser's  Letter  needs to be signed by and  authorized  principal of the
purchasing  entity.  The copy of the  letter  submitted  does not  appear  to be
completed and is not signed by an authorized principal of the purchasing entity,
as required.

3. The Third Amendment to the Earnest Money Contract needs to be further amended
to include the enclosed mandatory language for sales agreements/contracts.

4. Executed but unrecorded  Regulatory  Agreement:  If the Purchaser is assuming
the existing note and  mortgage,  an executed  Assumption  Agreement is normally
required.  If the purchaser is taking subject to the existing note and mortgage,
& new regulatory agreement is required. None was included in the TPA application
package.  We note  however,  that  assumption  of the note and  mortgage and the
obligations of the Regulatory Agreement are provided for in the proposed Special
Warranty Deed to be executed by both the Seller and the  Purchaser,  which would
also be acceptable.

5. Executed but unrecorded Modification Agreement: If a New Regulatory Agreement
is being executed, an executed  Modification  Agreement (HUD 92227) is needed so
as to incorporate the Regulatory Agreement into the existing mortgage.  If a new
Regulatory  Agreement  were  not  being  submitted,  assumption  of the note and
mortgage and the obligations under the regulatory agreement is required.

6.  Executed but  unrecorded  Assumption  Agreement:  See comments  Nos. 4 and 5
above.

7. Title Report: The Earnest Money Contract and Deed indicate that the seller is
to  be  released  from  liability  under  the  Note,  Mortgage,  and  Regulatory
Agreement.  Therefore,  we will need an endorsement to the original  Mortgagee's
Title policy (or letter) to the effect that coverage  under that policy will not
be reduced by reason of the transfer or release of the seller  frugal  liability
and that the  mortgagee  (and HUD) will still be  protected  by the  mortgagee's
title policy.

8.  Executed  Organizational  Documents  of  Purchaser:  Needs  to be  executed,
including Section 4.11. which contains HUD required  language,  prior to the TPA
closing.

You have 45 working  days from the date of this  letter in which to conform  all
relevant  documentation and activity to the terms and conditions  recited above,
to execute  and record  that  documentation,  and to submit  such  documentation
and/or  evidence  of  required  activity  to our  office.  Preliminary  approval

ownership of the project,  provided you comply with all the conditions set forth
in this approval letter.

We look forward to receipt of your Final approval  submission within 45 days. If
you find that you are unable to provide the required documentation to our office
within the  prescribed  period,  a request for  extension of this period must be
