       Krescent Partners L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the
"Purchaser"), hereby offers to purchase up to 8,380 of the issued and
outstanding Units of Investor Limited Partnership Interests (the "Units") of
Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-V, a Massachusetts limited partnership (the
"Partnership"), at a purchase price of $375 per Unit, net to the seller in cash
(the "Purchase Price"), without interest thereon, upon the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase (the "Offer to Purchase")
and in the related Letter of Transmittal, as each may be supplemented, modified
or amended from time to time (which together constitute the "Offer").  The
Purchase Price will be automatically reduced by the aggregate amount of
distributions per Unit, if any, made or declared by the Partnership after
November 21, 1996 and on or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in Section
1 ("Terms of the Offer")).  In addition, if a distribution is made or declared
after the Expiration Date but prior to the date on which the Purchaser pays the
Purchase Price for the tendered Units, the Purchaser will offset the amount
otherwise due a holder of Units (a "Unitholder") pursuant to the Offer in
respect of the tendered Units which have been accepted for payment but not yet
paid for by the amount of any such distribution.  UNITHOLDERS WHO TENDER THEIR
UNITS WILL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO PAY ANY COMMISSIONS OR PARTNERSHIP TRANSFER
FEES, WHICH COMMISSIONS AND FEES WILL BE BORNE BY THE PURCHASER.  The 8,380
Units sought pursuant to the Offer represent, to the best knowledge of the
Purchaser, approximately 24% of the Units outstanding as of the date of this
Offer.

                             --------------------

       THE PURCHASER IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH THE GENERAL PARTNERS OF THE
       PARTNERSHIP.

                             --------------------

       THE OFFER IS NOT CONDITIONED UPON ANY MINIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS BEING
       TENDERED.  IF, AS OF THE EXPIRATION DATE, MORE THAN 8,380 UNITS ARE
       VALIDLY TENDERED AND NOT PROPERLY WITHDRAWN, THE PURCHASER WILL ONLY
       ACCEPT FOR PURCHASE ON A PRO RATA BASIS 8,380 UNITS, SUBJECT TO THE
       TERMS AND CONDITIONS HEREIN.  SEE SECTION 14 ("CONDITIONS OF THE
       OFFER").  A UNITHOLDER MAY TENDER ANY OR ALL UNITS OWNED BY SUCH
       UNITHOLDER; HOWEVER, TENDERS OF LESS THAN ALL UNITS OWNED BY A
       UNITHOLDER THAT WOULD RESULT IN SUCH UNITHOLDER HOLDING LESS THAN 10
       UNITS OR FRACTIONAL UNITS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

                             --------------------

Before tendering, Unitholders are urged to consider the following factors:

 .      Although the Purchaser cannot predict the future value of the
       Partnership's assets on a per Unit basis, the Purchase Price could
       differ significantly from the net proceeds that would be realized from a
       current sale of the properties owned by the Partnership (the
       "Properties") or that may be realized upon a future liquidation of the
       Partnership.  See Section 13 ("Purchase Price Considerations").

 .      The Purchaser is making the Offer with a view to making a profit.
       Accordingly, there may be a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser
       to acquire the Units at a low price and the desire of Unitholders to
       sell their Units at a high price.

 .      If the Purchaser is successful in acquiring a significant number of
       Units pursuant to the Offer, the Purchaser could, after the Standstill
       Expiration Date (as such term is defined in the Glossary), be in a
       position to significantly influence all Partnership decisions on which
       Unitholders may vote, including decisions regarding removal of any
       General Partner, merger, sales of assets and liquidation of the
       Partnership.

TO THE HOLDERS OF UNITS OF INVESTOR LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS OF KRUPP
REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP-V:

                                  INTRODUCTION

       Krescent Partners L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the
"Purchaser"), hereby offers to purchase up to 8,380 of the issued and
outstanding Units of Investor Limited Partnership Interests (the "Units") of
Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-V, a Massachusetts limited partnership (the
"Partnership"), at a purchase price of $375 per Unit, net to the seller in cash
(the "Purchase Price"), without interest, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase (the "Offer to Purchase") and in
the related Letter of Transmittal, as each may be supplemented, modified or
amended from time to time (which together constitute the "Offer").  The
Purchase Price will be automatically reduced by the aggregate amount of
distributions per Unit, if any, made or declared by the Partnership after
November 21, 1996 and on or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in Section
1 ("Terms of the Offer")).  In addition, if a distribution is made or declared
after the Expiration Date but prior to the date on which the Purchaser pays the
Purchase Price for the tendered Units, the Purchaser will offset the amount
otherwise due a Unitholder pursuant to the Offer in respect of the tendered
Units which have been accepted for payment but not yet paid for by the amount
of any such distribution.  Unitholders who tender their Units will not be
obligated to pay any commissions or partnership transfer fees, which
commissions and transfer fees will be borne by the Purchaser.  The 8,380 Units
sought pursuant to the Offer represent, to the best knowledge of the Purchaser,
approximately 24% of the Units issued and outstanding as of the date of this
Offer.

       THE PURCHASER IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH THE GENERAL PARTNERS OF THE
PARTNERSHIP (THE "GENERAL PARTNERS").  THE OFFER IS NOT CONDITIONED UPON ANY
MINIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS BEING TENDERED.  IF, AS OF THE EXPIRATION DATE, MORE
THAN 8,380 UNITS ARE VALIDLY TENDERED AND NOT PROPERLY WITHDRAWN, THE PURCHASER
WILL ONLY ACCEPT FOR PURCHASE ON A PRO RATA BASIS 8,380 UNITS, SUBJECT TO THE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS HEREIN.  SEE SECTION 14 ("CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER").  A
UNITHOLDER MAY TENDER ANY OR ALL UNITS OWNED BY SUCH UNITHOLDER; HOWEVER,
TENDERS OF LESS THAN ALL UNITS OWNED BY A UNITHOLDER THAT WOULD RESULT IN SUCH
UNITHOLDER HOLDING LESS THAN 10 UNITS OR FRACTIONAL UNITS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

       The Purchaser is making this Offer because it believes that the Units
represent an attractive investment at the price offered.  There can be no
assurance, however, that the Purchaser's judgment is correct, and, as a result,
ownership of Units (either by the Purchaser or Unitholders who retain their
Units) will remain a speculative investment.  The Purchaser is acquiring the
Units for investment purposes and has no current plan to change current
management or the operations of the Partnership or effectuate any extraordinary
transaction involving the Partnership.

       In considering the Offer, Unitholders are urged to consider the
following factors:

 .      Although the Purchaser cannot predict the future value of the
       Partnership's assets on a per Unit basis, the Purchase Price could
       differ significantly from the net proceeds that would be realized on a
       per Unit basis from a current sale of the Partnership's Properties or
       that may be realized upon a future liquidation of the Partnership.  See
       Section 13 ("Purchase Price Considerations").

 .      The Purchaser is making the Offer with a view to making a profit.
       Accordingly, there may be a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser
       to acquire the Units at a low price and the desire of the Unitholders to
       sell their Units at a high price.  Upon the liquidation of the
       Partnership, the Purchaser will benefit to the extent, if any, that the
       amount per Unit it receives in the liquidation exceeds the Purchase
       Price, if any.  Therefore, Unitholders might receive more value if they
       hold their Units, rather than tender, and receive proceeds from the
       liquidation of the Partnership.  Alternatively, Unitholders may prefer
       to receive the Purchase Price now rather than wait for uncertain future
       net liquidation proceeds.  No independent person has been retained to
       evaluate or render any opinion with respect to the fairness of the
       Purchase Price and no representation is made by the Purchaser or any
       affiliate of the Purchaser as to such fairness.  When the assets of the
       Partnership are ultimately sold, the return to Unitholders could be
       higher or lower than the Purchase Price.  Unitholders are urged to
       consider carefully all of the information contained herein before
       accepting the Offer.
<PAGE>   5
 .      If the Purchaser is successful in acquiring a significant number of
       Units pursuant to the Offer, and following the expiration of the
       Standstill Agreement on the Standstill Expiration Date (as such terms
       are defined in the Glossary), the Purchaser could be in a position to
       significantly influence all Partnership decisions on which Investor
       Limited Partners may vote.  If the maximum number of Units sought by the
       Purchaser are tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer,
       the Purchaser will own approximately 24% of the outstanding Units.
       After the Standstill Expiration Date, this could effectively (i) prevent
       non-tendering Unitholders from taking actions they desire but that the
       Purchaser opposes and (ii) enable the Purchaser to take action desired
       by it but opposed by non-tendering Unitholders.  Under the Partnership
       Agreement, a majority in interest of the Investor Limited Partners are
       entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters, including:
       termination of the Partnership; removal of any General Partner; approval
       or disapproval of the sale of all or substantially all of the
       Partnership's assets; and most types of amendments to the Partnership
       Agreement.  Although the Purchaser has no current intentions with regard
       to any of these matters, it will, following the Standstill Expiration
       Date, vote the Units acquired pursuant to the Offer in its interest,
       which may, or may not, be in the best interest of non-tendering
       Unitholders.  Until the Standstill Expiration Date, the Purchaser has
       agreed to vote its Units in the same proportion to the votes of all
       other Investor Limited Partners who vote on any proposal.

 .      Unitholders who sell Units are expected to recognize taxable gain, which
       will be in an amount in excess of the cash received by the Unitholders.


       Unitholders may no longer wish to continue with their investment in the
Partnership for a number of reasons, including:

 .      Although not necessarily an indication of value, the $375 Purchase Price
       is approximately a 35% premium over the $278.22 weighted average
       selling price for Units reported for the limited secondary market during
       the six-month period ended September 30, 1996.  See Section 13
       ("Purchase Price Considerations").  Such secondary market selling price
       does not take into account commissions charged by secondary market
       makers effectuating such sales which the Purchaser believes, based on a
       typical 10 Unit sales transaction, range from 5% to 8.75% of the sales
       price (which would result in a reduction of the net proceeds to the
       seller of at least $13.91 per Unit).

 .      The Offer will provide Unitholders with an immediate opportunity to
       liquidate their investment in the Partnership without the usual
       transaction costs associated with market sales or partnership transfer
       fees.

 .      The Purchaser believes that, based on the experience of its financial
       advisor, Liquidity Financial Advisors, Inc. ("Liquidity Financial"), in
       its efforts to obtain a list of Unitholders from the General Partners,
       it may be difficult for third parties to obtain a Unitholder list from
       the General Partners.  If the General Partners resist the efforts of
       other third parties to obtain a list of Unitholders, such action could
       impede or delay the commencement of other tender offers for the Units.
       There can be no assurance, however, that the General Partners will
       resist the effort of third parties to obtain a list of Unitholders or
       that other tender offers for the Units will not be commenced.

 .      Because the Purchaser is subject to the restrictions set forth in the
       Standstill Agreement until the Standstill Expiration Date, the Purchaser
       will not, until the expiration of such date, be able to remove and
       replace the General Partners or cause any extraordinary transaction with
       respect to the Partnership.  Therefore, future returns from an
       investment in the Units will continue to depend, in part, on the actions
       or inactions of the General Partners.  In addition, Unitholders are
       advised that the Purchaser does not have any current plans to remove or
       replace the General Partners or to effectuate any extraordinary
       transactions involving the Partnership.

 .      Although there are some limited resale mechanisms available to the
       Unitholders wishing to sell their Units, there is no formal trading
       market for the Units.  The Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended
       December 31, 1995 (the "Form 10-K") states:  "There is no public market
       for the Units and it is not anticipated that any such public market will
       develop."  Accordingly, Unitholders who desire liquidity may wish to
       consider the Offer.  The Offer affords a significant number of
       Unitholders an opportunity to dispose of their Units for cash, which
       alternative otherwise might not be available to them.  However,





                                       2
<PAGE>   6
       the Purchase Price is not intended to represent either the fair market
       value of a Unit or the fair market value of the Partnership's assets on
       a per Unit basis.

 .      General disenchantment with real estate investments.

 .      General disenchantment with long-term investments in limited
       partnerships because of, among other things, their illiquidity and the
       inability of Unitholders to effectuate management control over the
       Partnership's affairs through the annual election of the General
       Partners.  Unitholders should note, however, that they do have the right
       to remove the General Partners by the majority vote.

 .      The Offer may be attractive to certain Unitholders who wish in the
       future to avoid the expenses, delays and complications in filing complex
       income tax returns which result from an ownership of Units.  In
       addition, certain Unitholders who sell 100% of their Units pursuant to
       the Offer will no longer be subject to the passive activity loss
       limitation with respect to "suspended" losses attributable to those
       Units and, therefore, will be able to utilize fully any such losses.

 .      The Offer provides Unitholders with the opportunity to liquidate their
       Units and to reinvest the proceeds in other investments should they
       desire to do so.  The Purchaser believes that the Units represent an
       attractive investment at the Purchase Price.  There can be no assurance,
       however, that this judgment is correct.  Ownership of Units will remain
       a speculative investment.

       Following the completion of the Offer, the Purchaser and its affiliates
may acquire additional Units; provided, however, until the Standstill
Expiration Date, the Purchaser may not acquire, directly or indirectly, more
than 25% of the Units.  Any such acquisitions may be made through private
purchases, through one or more future tender offers or by any other means
deemed advisable, and may be at prices higher or lower than the price to be
paid for the Units purchased pursuant to the Offer.  See Section 8 ("Purpose of
the Offer; Future Plans").

       The Purchaser expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion and
for any reason, to terminate the Offer at any time and to waive any or all of
the conditions of the Offer, although the Purchaser does not presently intend
to waive any such conditions.  See Section 7 ("Effects of the Offer").  A
Unitholder may tender any or all of his or her Units; however, tenders of less
than all Units owned by a Unitholder that would result in such Unitholder
holding less than 10 Units or fractional Units will not be accepted.

       According to the Form 10-K, as of December 31, 1995, there were 35,200
Units issued and outstanding, held of record by approximately 2,500
Unitholders.  The Purchaser owns five Units.

       Except as otherwise indicated, information contained in this Offer to
Purchase is based upon documents and reports publicly filed by the Partnership
with the Commission.  Although the Purchaser has no information that any
statements contained in this Offer to Purchase are untrue, the Purchaser does
not take responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any information
contained in this Offer to Purchase which is derived from such public
documents, or for any failure by the Partnership to disclose events which may
have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of any such
information but which are unknown to the Purchaser.

       Each Unitholder must make his or her own decision based on his or her
particular circumstances.  Unitholders should consult with their respective
advisors about the financial, tax, legal and other implications to them of
accepting the Offer.  UNITHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE, THE
RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND THE OTHER ACCOMPANYING MATERIALS CAREFULLY
BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER THEIR UNITS.

                                THE TENDER OFFER


       1.     TERMS OF THE OFFER.

       Upon the terms of the Offer (including the terms and conditions of any
extension or amendment of the Offer), the Purchaser will accept for payment and
pay for up to 8,380 Units that are validly tendered on or prior to the
Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined) and not withdrawn in accordance with
Section 4 ("Withdrawal Rights").  The term "Expiration Date" shall mean 12:00
midnight, New York City time, on December 20, 1996, unless the Purchaser, in
its sole discretion, shall have extended the period of time during which the
Offer is open, in which event the term "Expiration Date" shall refer to the
latest time and date at which the Offer, as so extended by the Purchaser, will
expire.

       IF, PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE, THE PURCHASER SHALL INCREASE THE
PURCHASE PRICE OFFERED TO UNITHOLDERS, SUCH INCREASED PURCHASE PRICE SHALL BE
PAID FOR ALL UNITS ACCEPTED FOR PAYMENT PURSUANT TO THE OFFER, WHETHER OR NOT
SUCH UNITS WERE TENDERED PRIOR TO THE INCREASE IN CONSIDERATION.

       The Offer is conditioned upon satisfaction of certain conditions.  See
Section 14 (which sets forth in full the conditions of the Offer).  The
Purchaser reserves the right (but shall not be obligated), in its sole
discretion, to waive any or all of such conditions.  If, on or prior to the
Expiration Date, any or all of such conditions have not been satisfied or
waived, the Purchaser may (i) decline to purchase any of the Units tendered,
terminate the Offer and return all tendered Units to tendering Unitholders,
(ii) waive all the then unsatisfied conditions and, subject to complying with
applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, purchase all Units validly
tendered, (iii) extend the Offer and, subject to the right of Unitholders to
withdraw Units until the Expiration Date, retain the Units that have been
tendered during the period or periods for which the Offer is extended, or (iv)
amend the Offer.  The rights reserved by the Purchaser in this paragraph are in
addition to the Purchaser's right to terminate the Offer at any time prior to
acceptance of tendered Units for payment.

       The Purchaser's financial advisor, Liquidity Financial, provided the
Purchaser with a list of the Unitholders, and this Offer to Purchase, the
related Letter of Transmittal and, if required, any other relevant materials
are being mailed to Unitholders, Beneficial Owners and Assignees who hold
Units, to the extent their names and addresses are on this list.

       2.     PRORATION; ACCEPTANCE FOR PAYMENT AND PAYMENT FOR UNITS.

       If more than 8,380 Units are validly tendered on or prior to the
Expiration Date and not properly withdrawn on or prior to the Expiration Date,
the Purchaser will only accept for payment, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions of the Offer, and pay for an aggregate of 8,380 Units so tendered,
pro rata according to the number of Units validly tendered and not properly
withdrawn on or prior to the Expiration Date, with appropriate adjustments to
(i) avoid purchases of fractional Units and (ii) purchases that would violate
Section 10.4 of the Partnership Agreement (collectively, the "Transfer
Restrictions").  If the number of Units validly tendered and not properly
withdrawn on or prior to the Expiration Date is less than or equal to 8,380
Units, the Purchaser will purchase all Units so tendered and not properly
withdrawn, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

       In the event that proration of tendered Units is required, and because
of the difficulty of determining the proration results, the Purchaser may not
be able to announce the final results of such proration until at least
approximately seven business days after the Expiration Date.  Subject to the
Purchaser's obligation under Rule 14e-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), to pay Unitholders the Purchase Price in
respect of Units tendered or return those Units promptly after the termination
or withdrawal of the Offer, the Purchaser does not intend to pay for any Units
accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer until the final proration results
are known.

       Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if
the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of any such
extension or amendment), the Purchaser will purchase, by accepting for payment,
and will pay for, all Units validly tendered and not withdrawn in accordance
with Section 4 on or prior to the Expiration Date as promptly as practicable
following the Expiration Date.  In addition, subject to applicable rules of the
Commission, the Purchaser expressly reserves the right to delay acceptance for
payment of, or payment for, Units pending receipt of any regulatory or
governmental approvals specified in Section 15 ("Certain Legal Matters") or
pending receipt of any additional documentation required by the Letter of
Transmittal.  In all cases, payment for Units accepted for payment pursuant to
the Offer will be made only after timely receipt by the Information
Agent/Depositary of (a) the Letter of Transmittal (or a facsimile copy thereof)
properly completed and duly executed, with required medallion signature
guarantees, and (b) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal.

       For purposes of the Offer, the Purchaser shall be deemed to have
accepted for payment tendered Units when, as and if the Purchaser gives oral or
written notice to the Information Agent/Depositary of the Purchaser's
acceptance for payment of such Units pursuant to the Offer.  No tender of Units
will be deemed to have been validly made until all defects and irregularities
with respect to such tender have been cured or waived.  Upon the terms and
subject to the conditions of the Offer, payment for Units tendered and accepted
for payment pursuant to the Offer will in all cases be made by deposit of the
Purchase Price with the Information Agent/Depositary, which will act as agent
for the tendering Unitholders for the purpose of receiving payment from the
Purchaser and transmitting payment to tendering Unitholders.

       The Purchase Price will automatically be reduced by the aggregate amount
of distributions per Unit, if any, made or declared by the Partnership after
November 21, 1996 and on or prior to the Expiration Date.  In addition, if a
distribution is made or declared after the Expiration Date but prior to the
date on which the Purchaser pays for tendered Units, the Purchaser will offset
the amount otherwise due to a Unitholder pursuant to the Offer in respect of
tendered Units which have been accepted for payment but not yet paid for by the
amount of any such distribution.  UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL THE PURCHASER PAY
INTEREST ON THE PURCHASE PRICE FOR UNITS.

       If any tendered Units are not purchased pursuant to the Offer for any
reason, the Letter of Transmittal with respect to such Units will be destroyed
by the Information Agent/Depositary.  If, for any reason whatsoever, acceptance
for payment of or payment for any Units tendered pursuant to the Offer is
delayed or the Purchaser is unable to accept for payment, purchase or pay for
Units tendered pursuant to the Offer, then, without prejudice to the
Purchaser's rights under Section 14 ("Conditions of the Offer"), the
Information Agent/Depositary may, nevertheless, on behalf of the Purchaser and
subject to Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, retain tendered Units, and
such Units may not be withdrawn except to the extent that the tendering
Unitholder is entitled to withdrawal rights as described in Section 4
("Withdrawal Rights").

       3.     PROCEDURES FOR TENDERING UNITS.

       VALID TENDER.  For Units to be validly tendered pursuant to the Offer, a
Letter of Transmittal (or a facsimile copy thereof), properly completed and
duly executed, together with any other documents required by the Letter of
Transmittal, must be received by the Information Agent/Depositary at its
address on the back cover page of the Offer to Purchase on or prior to the
Expiration Date.  A Unitholder may tender any or all Units owned by such
Unitholder; however, in order to comply with the Transfer Restrictions, tenders
of less than all Units owned by a Unitholder that would result in such
Unitholder holding less than 10 Units or fractional Units will not be accepted.
See Instruction 1 to the Letter of Transmittal.

       IN ORDER FOR A TENDERING UNITHOLDER TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OFFER, UNITS
MUST BE VALIDLY TENDERED AND NOT WITHDRAWN ON OR PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE,
WHICH IS 12:00 MIDNIGHT, NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON DECEMBER 20, 1996, UNLESS
EXTENDED.

       THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER
REQUIRED DOCUMENTS IS AT THE OPTION AND RISK OF THE TENDERING UNITHOLDER AND
DELIVERY WILL BE DEEMED MADE ONLY WHEN ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE INFORMATION
AGENT/DEPOSITARY.  IF DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT
REQUESTED





                                       5
<PAGE>   9
IS RECOMMENDED.  IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE
TIMELY DELIVERY.  SEE INSTRUCTION 1 TO THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.

       SIGNATURE GUARANTEES.  The signature(s) on the Letter of Transmittal
must be medallion guaranteed by a commercial bank, savings bank, credit union,
savings and loan association or trust company having an office, branch or
agency in the United States, a brokerage firm that is a member firm of a
registered national securities exchange or a member of the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD") as provided in the Letter of
Transmittal.  See Instruction 2 of the Letter of Transmittal.

       BACKUP FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING.  To prevent the possible
application of backup federal income tax withholding with respect to payment of
the Purchase Price pursuant to the offer, a tendering Unitholder must provide
the Purchaser with such Unitholder's correct taxpayer identification number or
social security number by completing the Substitute Form W-9 included in the
Letter of Transmittal.  See Instruction 3 to the Letter of Transmittal.

       FIRPTA WITHHOLDING.  To prevent the withholding of federal income tax in
an amount equal to 10% of the sum of the Purchase Price plus the amount of
Partnership liabilities allocable to each Unit purchased, each Unitholder must
complete the FIRPTA Affidavit included in the Letter of Transmittal certifying
such Unitholder's taxpayer identification number and address and that the
Unitholder is not a foreign person.  See Instruction 3 to the Letter of
Transmittal.

       APPOINTMENT AS PROXY; POWER OF ATTORNEY.  By executing and delivering
the Letter of Transmittal, a tendering Unitholder irrevocably appoints the
Purchaser and the designees of the Purchaser and each of them as such
Unitholder's proxies, with full power of substitution, in the manner set forth
in the Letter of Transmittal, each with full power of substitution, to the full
extent of such Unitholder's rights with respect to the Units tendered by such
Unitholder and accepted for payment by the Purchaser (and with respect to any
and all other Units or other securities issued or issuable in respect of such
Units on or after the date hereof).  All such proxies shall be considered
irrevocable and coupled with an interest in the tendered Units.  Such
appointment will be effective when, and only to the extent that, the Purchaser
accepts such Units for payment.  Upon such acceptance for payment, all prior
proxies given by such Unitholder with respect to such Units (and such other
Units and securities) will be revoked without further action, and no subsequent
proxies may be given nor any subsequent written consents executed (and, if
given or executed, will not be deemed effective).  The Purchaser and its
designees will, with respect to the Units (and such other Units and securities)
for which such appointment is effective, be empowered to exercise all voting
and other rights of such Unitholder as they in their sole discretion may deem
proper at any meeting of Unitholders or any adjournment or postponement
thereof, by written consent in lieu of any such meeting or otherwise.  The
Purchaser reserves the right to require that, in order for Units to be deemed
validly tendered, immediately upon the Purchaser's payment for such Units, the
Purchaser must be able to exercise full voting rights with respect to such
Units and other securities, including voting at any meeting of Investor Limited
Partners.

       In addition, pursuant to such appointment as attorneys-in-fact, the
Purchaser and its designees each will have the power, among other things, (i)
to seek to transfer ownership of such Units on the Partnership's books (and
execute and deliver any accompanying evidences of transfer and authenticity any
of them may deem necessary or appropriate in connection therewith, including,
without limitation, any documents or instruments required to be executed under
a "Transferor's (Seller's) Application for Transfer" created by the NASD, if
required), (ii) upon receipt by the Information Agent/Depositary (as the
tendering Unitholder's agent) of the Purchase Price, to become a Substitute
Limited Partner, to receive any and all distributions made by the Partnership
after the Expiration Date, and to receive all benefits and otherwise exercise
all rights of beneficial ownership of such Units in accordance with the terms
of the Offer, (iii) to execute and deliver to the Partnership and/or the
General Partners (as the case may be) a change of address form instructing the
Partnership to send any and all future distributions to which the Purchaser is
entitled pursuant to the terms of the Offer in respect of tendered Units to the
address specified in such form, and (iv) to endorse any check payable to or
upon the order of such Unitholder representing a distribution to which the
Purchaser is entitled pursuant to the terms of the Offer, in each case on
behalf of the tendering Unitholder.





                                       6
<PAGE>   10
       ASSIGNMENT OF ENTIRE INTEREST IN THE PARTNERSHIP.  By executing and
delivering the Letter of Transmittal, a tendering Unitholder irrevocably
assigns to the Purchaser and its assigns all of the, direct and indirect,
right, title and interest of such Unitholder in the Partnership with respect to
the Units tendered and purchased pursuant to the Offer, including, without
limitation, such Unitholder's right, title and interest in and to any and all
distributions made by the Partnership after the Expiration Date in respect of
the Units tendered by such Unitholder and accepted for payment by the
Purchaser, regardless of the fact that the record date for any such
distribution may be a date prior to the Expiration Date.  By executing and
delivering the Letter of Transmittal, a tendering Unitholder (i) represents
that the assignment of Units pursuant to the terms of the Offer are made in
accordance with all applicable laws and regulations and (ii) expressly intends
that the Purchaser become a Substitute Limited Partner.  The Purchaser will
seek to become a Substitute Limited Partner in accordance with the Partnership
Agreement upon consummation of the Offer.

       DETERMINATION OF VALIDITY.  All questions as to the form of documents
and validity, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for
payment of any tender of Units will be determined by the Purchaser, in its sole
discretion, whose determination shall be final and binding on all parties.  The
Purchaser reserves the absolute right to reject any or all tenders determined
by it not to be in proper form, or the acceptance of or payment for which  may,
in the opinion of the Purchaser's counsel, be unlawful.  The Purchaser also
reserves the absolute right to waive any of the conditions of the Offer or any
defect or irregularity in any tender of Units of any particular Unitholder
whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of
other Unitholders.

       ASSIGNEE STATUS.  Assignees must provide documentation to the
Information Agent/Depositary which demonstrates, to the satisfaction of the
Purchaser, such person's status as an assignee of a Unit.

       The Purchaser's interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer
(including the Letter of Transmittal and the instructions thereto) will be
final and binding.  No tender of Units will be deemed to have been validly made
until all defects and irregularities with respect to such tender have been
cured or waived.  None of the Purchaser, any of its affiliates or assigns, if
any, the Information Agent/Depositary or any other person will be under any
duty to give any notification of any defects or irregularities in tenders or
incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

       The Purchaser's acceptance for payment of Units tendered pursuant to the
procedures described above will constitute a binding agreement between the
tendering Unitholder and the Purchaser upon the terms and subject to the
conditions of the Offer.

       4.     WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS.

       Tenders of Units made pursuant to the Offer are irrevocable, except that
Units tendered pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the
Expiration Date and, unless theretofore accepted for payment as provided in
this Offer to Purchase, may also be withdrawn at any time after January 20,
1997.

       For a withdrawal to be effective, a written or facsimile transmission
notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the Information
Agent/Depositary at the address set forth on the back cover of this Offer to
Purchase.  Any such notice of withdrawal must specify the name(s) of the
person(s) who tendered the Units to be withdrawn, the number of Units to be
withdrawn and the name(s) of the registered holder(s) of the Units, if
different from that of the person(s) who tendered such Units.  Such notice of
withdrawal must also be signed by the same person(s) who signed the Letter of
Transmittal in the same manner as the Letter of Transmittal was signed
(including medallion signature guarantees).  If the Units are held in the name
of two or more persons, all such persons must sign the notice of withdrawal.
Any Units properly withdrawn will be deemed not validly tendered for purposes
of the Offer, but may be re-tendered at any subsequent time prior to the
Expiration Date by following the procedures described in Section 3 ("Procedures
for Tendering Units").

       If, for any reason whatsoever, acceptance for payment of any Units
tendered pursuant to the Offer is delayed, or the Purchaser is unable to accept
for payment or pay for Units tendered pursuant to the Offer, then, without
prejudice to the Purchaser's rights set forth herein, the Information
Agent/Depositary may, nevertheless, on behalf of the Purchaser, retain tendered
Units and such Units may not be withdrawn except to the extent that the
tendering Unitholder is entitled to and duly exercises withdrawal rights as
described herein.  The reservation





                                       7
<PAGE>   11
by the Purchaser of the right to delay the acceptance or purchase of or payment
for Units is subject to the provisions of Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act,
which requires the Purchaser to pay the consideration offered or return Units
tendered by or on behalf of Unitholders promptly after the termination or
withdrawal of the Offer.

       All questions as to the form and validity (including time of receipt) of
notices of withdrawal will be determined by the Purchaser, in its sole
discretion, whose determination shall be final and binding.  None of the
Purchaser, any of its affiliates or assigns, if any, the Information
Agent/Depositary or any other person will be under any duty to give any
notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or
incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

           5.     EXTENSION OF TENDER PERIOD; TERMINATION; AMENDMENT.

       The Purchaser reserves the right, in its sole discretion and regardless
of whether any of the conditions set forth in Section 14 ("Conditions of the
Offer") shall have been satisfied, at any time and from time to time, (i) to
extend the period of time during which the Offer is open and thereby delay
acceptance for payment of, and the payment for, any Units, (ii) to terminate
the Offer and not accept for payment any Units not already accepted for payment
or paid for, and (iii) to amend the Offer in any respect by giving oral or
written notice of such amendment to the Information Agent/Depositary.

       If the Purchaser increases or decreases either the number of the Units
being sought or the consideration to be paid for any Units pursuant to the
Offer and the Offer is scheduled to expire at any time before the expiration of
a period of 10 business days from, and including, the date that notice of such
increase or decrease is first published, sent or given in the manner specified
below, the Offer will be extended until, at a minimum, the expiration of such
period of 10 business days.  If the Purchaser makes a material change in the
terms of the Offer (other than a change in price or percentage of securities
sought) or in the information concerning the Offer, or waives a material
condition of the Offer, the Purchaser will extend the Offer, if required by
applicable law, for a period sufficient to allow Unitholders to consider the
amended terms of the Offer.

       The Purchaser also reserves the right, in its sole discretion, in the
event any of the conditions specified under Section 14 ("Conditions of the
Offer") shall not have been satisfied and so long as Units have not theretofore
been accepted for payment, to delay (except as otherwise required by applicable
law) acceptance for payment of or payment for Units or to terminate the Offer
and not accept for payment or pay for Units.

       If the Purchaser extends the period of time during which the Offer is
open, delays acceptance for payment of or payment for Units or is unable to
accept for payment or pay for Units pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then,
without prejudice to the Purchaser's rights under the Offer, the Information
Agent/Depositary may, on behalf of the Purchaser, retain all Units tendered,
and such Units may not be withdrawn except as otherwise provided under Section
4 ("Withdrawal Rights").  The reservation by the Purchaser of the right to
delay acceptance for payment of or payment for Units is subject to applicable
law, which requires that the Purchaser pay the consideration offered or return
the Units deposited by or on behalf of Unitholders promptly after the
termination or withdrawal of the Offer.

       Any extension, termination or amendment of the Offer will be followed as
promptly as practicable by a public announcement thereof.  Without limiting the
manner in which the Purchaser may choose to make any public announcement, the
Purchaser will have no obligation (except as otherwise required by applicable
law) to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any such public
announcement other than by making a release to the Dow Jones News Service.  In
the case of an extension of the Offer, the Purchaser will make a public
announcement of such extension no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on
the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date.

       6.     CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES.

       The following summary is a general discussion of certain federal income
tax consequences of a sale of Units pursuant to the Offer assuming that the
Partnership is a partnership for federal income tax purposes and that it is not
a "publicly traded partnership" as defined in Section 7704 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").  This summary is based on the
Code, applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder,





                                       8
<PAGE>   12
administrative rulings, practice and procedures and judicial authority as of
the date of the Offer.  All of the foregoing are subject to change, and any
such change could affect the continuing accuracy of this summary.  This summary
does not discuss all aspects of federal income taxation that may be relevant to
a particular Unitholder in light of such Unitholder's specific circumstances or
to certain types of Unitholders subject to special treatment under the federal
income tax laws (for example, foreign persons, dealers in securities, banks,
insurance companies and tax-exempt organizations), nor does it discuss any
aspect of state, local, foreign or other tax laws.  Sales of Units pursuant to
the Offer will be taxable transactions for federal income tax purposes, and may
also be taxable transactions under applicable state, local, foreign and other
tax laws.  EACH UNITHOLDER SHOULD CONSULT HIS OR ITS TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE
PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH UNITHOLDER OF SELLING UNITS PURSUANT TO THE
OFFER.

       CONSEQUENCES TO TENDERING UNITHOLDER.  A Unitholder will recognize gain
or loss on a sale of Units pursuant to the Offer equal to the difference
between (i) the Unitholder's "amount realized" on the sale and (ii) the
Unitholder's adjusted tax basis in the Units sold.  The "amount realized" with
respect to a Unit sold pursuant to the Offer will be a sum equal to the amount
of cash received by the Unitholder for the Unit plus the amount of Partnership
liabilities allocable to the Unit (as determined under Code Section 752).  The
amount of a Unitholder's adjusted tax basis in Units sold pursuant to the Offer
will vary depending upon the Unitholder's particular circumstances, and will be
affected by both allocations of Partnership income, gain or loss, and any cash
distributions made by the Partnership to a Unitholder with respect to such
Units.  In this regard, tendering Unitholders will be allocated a pro rata
share of the Partnership's taxable income or loss with respect to Units sold
pursuant to the Offer through the effective date of the sale.

       A Unitholder who acquired Units pursuant to the original offering of
Units by the Partnership is expected to recognize a taxable gain on a sale of
Units pursuant to the Offer.  The amount of the taxable gain is expected to
exceed the amount of cash to be received by the Unitholder.

       In general, the character (as capital or ordinary) of a Unitholder's
gain or loss on a sale of a Unit pursuant to the Offer will be determined by
allocating the Unitholder's amount realized on the sale and his adjusted tax
basis in the Units sold between "Section 751 items," which are "substantially
appreciated inventory" and "unrealized receivables" (including depreciation
recapture) as defined in Code Section 751, and non-Section 751 items.  The
difference between the portion of the Unitholder's amount realized that is
allocable to Section 751 items and the portion of the Unitholder's adjusted tax
basis in the Units sold that is so allocable will be treated as ordinary income
or loss, and the difference between the Unitholder's remaining amount realized
and adjusted tax basis will be treated as capital gain or loss assuming the
Units were held by the Unitholder as a capital asset.  The Purchaser believes
that substantially all of any tax gain realized on a sale of Units pursuant to
the Offer will be treated as a capital gain under these rules.

       A Unitholder's capital gain (if any) or loss on a sale of Units pursuant
to the Offer will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the
Unitholder's holding period for the Units exceeds one year.  Under current law
(which is subject to change), long-term capital gains of individuals and other
non-corporate taxpayers are taxed at a maximum marginal federal income tax rate
of 28%, whereas the maximum marginal federal income tax rate for other income
of such persons is 39.6%.  Capital losses are deductible only to the extent of
capital gains, except that non-corporate taxpayers may deduct up to $3,000 of
capital losses in excess of the amount of their capital gains against ordinary
income.  Excess capital losses generally can be carried forward to succeeding
years (a corporation's carryforward period is five years and a non-corporate
taxpayer can carry forward such losses indefinitely); in addition,
corporations, but not non-corporate taxpayers, are allowed to carry back excess
capital losses to the three preceding taxable years.

       Under Code Section 469, a non-corporate taxpayer or personal service
corporation can deduct passive activity losses in any year only to the extent
of such person's passive activity income for such year, and closely held
corporations may not offset such losses against so-called "portfolio" income.
A Unitholder with "suspended" passive activity losses (i.e., net tax losses in
excess of statutorily provided "phase-in" amounts) from the Partnership
generally will be entitled to offset such losses against any income or gain
recognized by the Unitholder on a sale of his Units pursuant to the Offer.  If
a Unitholder is unable to sell all his Units, the deductibility of any unused
losses would continue to be subject to the passive activity loss limitation
until the Unitholder sells his remaining Units. See Section 7 ("Effects of the
Offer").





                                       9
<PAGE>   13
       A Unitholder (other than corporations and certain foreign individuals)
who tenders Units may be subject to 31% backup withholding unless the
Unitholder provides a taxpayer identification number ("TIN") and certifies that
the TIN is correct or properly certifies that he is awaiting a TIN.  A
Unitholder may avoid backup withholding by properly completing and signing the
Substitute Form W-9 included as part of the Letter of Transmittal.  IF A
UNITHOLDER WHO IS SUBJECT TO BACKUP WITHHOLDING DOES NOT PROPERLY COMPLETE AND
SIGN THE SUBSTITUTE FORM W-9, THE PURCHASER WILL WITHHOLD 31% FROM PAYMENTS TO
SUCH UNITHOLDER.  SEE INSTRUCTION 3 TO THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.

       Gain realized by a foreign Unitholder on a sale of a Unit pursuant to
the Offer will be subject to federal income tax.  Under Section 1445 of the
Code, the transferee of a partnership interest held by a foreign person is
generally required to deduct and withhold a tax equal to 10% of the amount
realized on the disposition.  The Purchaser will withhold 10% of the amount
realized by a tendering Unitholder from the Purchase Price payable to such
Unitholder unless the Unitholder properly completes and signs the FIRPTA
Affidavit included as part of the Letter of Transmittal certifying the
Unitholder's TIN, that such Unitholder is not a foreign person and the
Unitholder's address.  Amounts withheld would be creditable against a foreign
Unitholder's federal income tax liability and, if in excess thereof, a refund
could be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service by filing a U.S. income tax
return.

       CONSEQUENCES TO A NON-TENDERING UNITHOLDER.  The Purchaser does not
anticipate that a Unitholder who does not tender his or its Units will realize
any material tax consequences as a result of the election not to tender.
However, if as a result of the Offer there is a sale or exchange of 50% or more
of the total Units in Partnership capital and profits within a 12-month period,
a termination of the Partnership for federal income tax purposes would occur,
and the taxable year of the Partnership would close.  In the case of such a
sale or exchange, the Properties (subject to related debt) of the Partnership
would be treated as distributed to the partners, and following the deemed
distribution, contribution of the same properties would be deemed to be made to
a new partnership or to an association taxable as a corporation.  The Purchaser
has not, however, had access to complete information concerning assignments of
Units and cannot, therefore, be certain that the Partnership will not terminate
for tax purposes as a result of sales pursuant to the Offer.  The consequences
of a termination of the Partnership could include changes in the methods of
depreciation available to the Partnership for tax purposes, changes in the tax
basis of the Partnership's assets, possible recognition of taxable gain
resulting from any deemed cash distribution in excess of the non-tendering
Unitholder's tax basis in his or her Units, and possibly other consequences the
extent of which cannot be determined by the Purchaser without access to the
books and records of the Partnership.  In addition, a termination of the
Partnership could cause the Partnership or its assets to become subject to
unfavorable statutory or regulatory changes enacted or issued prior to the
termination but previously not applicable to the Partnership or its assets
because of protective "transitional" rules.  The Purchaser has reserved the
right not to purchase Units to the extent such purchase would cause a
termination of the Partnership for federal income tax purposes.

       CONSEQUENCES TO A TAX-EXEMPT UNITHOLDER.  Although certain entities are
generally exempt from federal income taxation, such tax-exempt entities
(including Individual Retirement Accounts (each an "IRA")) are subject to
federal income tax on any "unrelated business taxable income" ("UBTI").  UBTI
generally includes, among other things, income (other than, in the case of
property which is not "debt-financed property", interest, dividends, real
property rents not dependent upon income or profits, and gain from disposition
of non-inventory property) derived by certain trusts (including IRAs) from a
trade or business or by certain other tax-exempt organizations from a trade or
business, the conduct of which is not substantially related to the exercise of
such organization's charitable, educational or other exempt purpose and income
to the extent derived from debt-financed property.  Subject to certain
exceptions, "debt-financed property" is generally any property which is held to
produce income and with respect to which there is an "acquisition indebtedness"
at any time during the taxable year.  Acquisition indebtedness is generally
indebtedness incurred by a tax-exempt entity directly or through a partnership:
(i) in acquiring or improving a property; (ii) before acquiring or improving a
property if the indebtedness would not have been incurred but for such
acquisition or improvement; or (iii) after acquiring or improving a property if
the indebtedness would not have been incurred but for such acquisition or
improvement and the incurrence of such indebtedness was reasonably foreseeable
at the time of the acquisition or improvement.

       To the extent the Partnership holds debt financed property or inventory
or other assets as a dealer, a tax-exempt Unitholder (including an IRA) could
realize UBTI on the sale of a Partnership interest.  In addition, a tax-




                                     10
<PAGE>   14

exempt Unitholder will realize UBTI upon the sale of a Unit, if such Unitholder
held its Units as inventory or otherwise as dealer property, or acquired its
Units with acquisition indebtedness.  However, any UBTI recognized by a
tax-exempt Unitholder as a result of a sale of a Unit, in general, may be
offset by such Unitholder's net operating loss carryover (determined without
taking into account any amount of income or deduction which is excluded in
computing UBTI), subject to applicable limitations.

       EACH TAX-EXEMPT UNITHOLDER SHOULD CONSULT ITS TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE
PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH UNITHOLDER OF SELLING OR NOT SELLING UNITS
PURSUANT TO THE OFFER.

       7.     EFFECTS OF THE OFFER.

       CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF INTERESTS.  The Partnership
Agreement restricts transfers of Units if, among other things, in the opinion
of counsel to the Partnership a transfer would cause a termination of the
Partnership for federal income tax purposes (which termination will occur when
Units representing 50% or more of the total Partnership capital and profits are
transferred within a twelve-month period).  Consequently, sales of Units in the
secondary market and in private transactions during the twelve-month period
following completion of the Offer may be restricted, and the Partnership may
not process any requests for recognition of transfers or Units during such
twelve-month period which the General Partners believe may cause a tax
termination.  The Purchaser does not intend to purchase Units to the extent
such purchase would cause a termination of the Partnership. See Section 6
("Federal Income Tax Considerations--Consequences to a Non-Tendering
Unitholder") and Section 14 ("Conditions of the Offer").

       EFFECT ON TRADING MARKET; REGISTRATION UNDER SECTION 12(G) OF THE
EXCHANGE ACT.  If a substantial number of Units are purchased pursuant to the
Offer, the result will be a reduction in the number of Unitholders.  In the
case of certain kinds of equity securities like the Units, a reduction in the
number of securityholders might be expected to result in a reduction in the
liquidity and volume of activity in the trading market for the security.  The
Form 10-K states:  "There is no public market for the Units and it is not
anticipated that any such public market will develop."  Therefore, the
Purchaser does not believe a reduction in the number of Unitholders will
materially further restrict the Unitholders' ability to find purchasers for
their Units through secondary market transactions.

       Partnership Profiles, Inc., which publishes The Partnership Spectrum,
tracks recent trades in certain limited partnership interests.  For the six
months ended September 30, 1996, The Partnership Spectrum reports that a total
of 135 Units traded at per Unit prices between $260 and $360 with a weighted
average of $278.22 per Unit.  The most recent issue of The Partnership Spectrum
(September/October 1996) indicates that ten Units traded in the period from
August 1, 1996 through September 30, 1996 at a price of $360 per Unit.

       The Units currently are registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange
Act, which means, among other things, that the Partnership is required to file
periodic reports with the Commission and to comply with the Commission's proxy
rules.  The Purchaser does not expect or intend that consummation of the Offer
will cause the Units to cease to be registered under Section 12(g) of the
Exchange Act.  If the Units were to be held by fewer than 300 persons, the
Partnership could apply to de-register the Units under the Exchange Act.
Because the Units are widely held, however, the Purchaser expects that even if
it purchases the maximum number of Units in the Offer, the Units will continue
to be held of record by more than 300 persons.

       CONTROL OF ALL UNITHOLDER VOTING DECISIONS BY PURCHASER.  The Purchaser
will have the right to vote each Unit purchased pursuant to the Offer.  If the
Purchaser is successful in acquiring a significant number of Units pursuant to
the Offer, and following the Standstill Expiration Date, the Purchaser could be
in a position to significantly influence all Partnership decisions on which
Investor Limited Partners may vote.  If the maximum number of Units sought by
the Purchaser are tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer, the
Purchaser will own approximately 24% of the outstanding Units.  After the
Standstill Expiration Date, this would effectively (i) prevent non-tendering
Unitholders from taking action they desire but that the Purchaser opposes and
(ii) enable the Purchaser to take action desired by it but opposed by non-
tendering Unitholders.  Under the Partnership Agreement, a majority in interest
of the Investor Limited Partners are entitled to take action with respect to a
variety of matters, including:  removal of any General Partner; termination of
the Partnership; sale of all or substantially all of the Partnership's
properties; and most types of amendments to the Partnership





                                       11

Agreement.  Although the Purchaser has no current intentions with regard to any
of these matters, it will, following the Standstill Expiration Date, vote the
Units acquired pursuant to the Offer in its interest, which may, or may not, be
in the best interest of non-tendering Unitholders.  Until the Standstill
Expiration Date, the Purchaser has agreed to vote its Units in the same
proportion to the votes of all other Investor Limited Partners who vote on any
proposals.  See Section 8 ("Purpose of the Offer; Future Plans") for certain
contractual limitations of the Purchaser regarding its participation in certain
extraordinary transactions involving the Partnership, including the
solicitation of proxies to replace the General Partners.

       8.     PURPOSE OF THE OFFER; FUTURE PLANS.

       PURPOSE OF THE OFFER.  The purpose of the Offer is to enable the
Purchaser to acquire a significant interest in the Partnership for investment
purposes based on its expectation that there may be underlying value in the
Properties.  The Purchaser does not currently intend to change current
management or the operation of the Partnership and does not have current plans
for any extraordinary transaction involving the Partnership.  However, these
plans could change at any time in the future.  If the Purchaser's plans with
respect to the Partnership change in the future, the ability of the Purchaser
to influence actions on which Investor Limited Partners have a right to vote
will depend on the Unitholders' response to the Offer (i.e., the number of
Units tendered).  If the Purchaser acquires only a few Units pursuant to the
Offer, it would not be in a position to influence matters over which Investor
Limited Partners have a right to vote.  Conversely, if the maximum number of
Units sought are tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer, the
Purchaser will own approximately 24% of the issued and outstanding Units and,
as a result, will, following the Standstill Expiration Date, be in a position
to exert significant control over matters on which Investor Limited Partners
have a right to vote.  The purchase of the Units will allow the Purchaser to
benefit from any of the following:  (a) any cash distributions from Partnership
operations in the ordinary course of business; (b) any distributions of net
proceeds from the sale of any Properties; and (c) any distributions of net
proceeds from the liquidation of the Partnership.

       FUTURE PLANS.  Following the completion of the Offer and subject to the
terms of the Standstill Agreement, the Purchaser and its affiliates may acquire
additional Units.  Any such acquisition may be made through private purchases,
through one or more future tender offers or by any other means deemed
advisable, and may be at prices higher or lower than the price to be paid for
the Units purchased to the Offer.

       Pursuant to an Assumption Agreement dated November 21, 1996 between the
Purchaser and Liquidity Financial Group, L.P., an affiliate of Liquidity
Financial (a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit (c)(3) to the Purchaser's
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule 14D-1 filed with the Commission on November
21, 1996), the Purchaser agreed to become bound by the restrictions set forth
in the Standstill Agreement.  As a result, the Purchaser agreed that, prior to
the Standstill Expiration Date, it will not and it will cause certain
affiliates not to (i) acquire, attempt to acquire or make a proposal to
acquire, directly or indirectly, more than 25% of the outstanding Units, (ii)
propose or propose to enter into, directly or indirectly, any merger,
consolidation, business combination, sale or acquisition of assets,
liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction involving the
Partnership, (iii) make, or in any way participate, directly or indirectly, in
any solicitation of "proxies" or "consents" (as such terms are used in the
proxy rules of the Commission) to vote, or seek to advise or influence any
person with respect to the voting of any voting securities of the Partnership,
(iv) form, join or otherwise participate in a "group" (within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act)) with respect to any voting securities of
the Partnership, provided, however, that those affiliates bound by the
Standstill Agreement will not be deemed to be acting in a "group" in violation
of it solely by virtue of voting in compliance with the Standstill Agreement,
(v) sell, transfer or assign any Units to any person or entity bound by the
terms and conditions of the Standstill Agreement, (vi) disclose any intention,
plan or arrangement inconsistent with the terms of the Standstill Agreement, or
(vii) loan money to, advise, assist or encourage any person in connection with
any action restricted or prohibited by the terms of the Standstill Agreement.

hereto, (1) neither the Purchaser, the Managing Member, Advisors, and to the
best of Purchaser's knowledge, the persons listed on Schedule I, nor any
affiliate of the foregoing beneficially owns or has a right to acquire any
Units, (2) neither the Purchaser, the Managing Member, Advisors, and to the

affiliate thereof or director, executive officer or subsidiary of the Managing
Member or Advisors has effected any transaction in the Units within the past 60
days, (3) neither the Purchaser, the Managing Member, Advisors, and to the best

regulations of the Commission between any of the Purchaser, the Managing

the Partnership or its affiliates, on the other hand, concerning a merger,
consolidation or acquisition, tender offer or other acquisition of securities,
an election of directors or a sale or other transfer of a material amount of
assets.

       The Purchaser owns five Units, which represents less than 1% of the
number of Units outstanding as reported in the Form 10-K (the most recently
available filing containing such information).  The Purchaser acquired such
five Units on November 1, 1996 from an affiliate of Liquidity Financial at a
price per Unit of $375.

       Liquidity Financial, a registered investment advisor, is acting as
financial advisor to the Purchaser in connection with the Offer and has
provided certain financial advisory services to the Purchaser in connection
with the Offer.  See Section 11 ("Background of the Offer").

       11.    BACKGROUND OF THE OFFER.

       In late 1994, representatives of Liquidity Financial met with
representatives of AREA and AREA II to discuss a possible financial advisory
relationship between the parties.  Specifically, Liquidity Financial proposed
to act as financial advisor to AREA with respect to strategic investments in
limited partnerships which are not controlled by AREA.  Negotiations regarding
this proposed financial advisory relationship continued through the winter of
1995 and ultimately culminated the execution in March 1995 of an agreement in
principle (the "1995 Agreement in Principle").  During the spring and summer of
1995, Liquidity Financial and AREA discussed the terms of a number of potential
tender offers for limited partnership interests, however no specific terms were
agreed on and no tender offers involving Liquidity Financial and AREA and their
respective affiliates were commenced.  Ultimately, the 1995 Agreement in
Principle terminated pursuant to its terms.

       Liquidity Financial has advised the Purchaser that following the
termination of the 1995 Agreement in Principle it continued its business of
evaluating limited partnerships and utilized its position as a limited partner
to obtain lists of limited partners from a number of partnerships in which it
held interests.  As part of its business, Liquidity Financial Group, L.P.
("LFG"), an affiliate of Liquidity Financial, requested in writing a list of
Unitholders from the Partnership in February 1996.  Subsequent oral and written
requests for this list were made by representatives of LFG to representatives
of the Partnership in February 1996 through May 1996.  During May 1996, an LFG
representative met with a representative of the Partnership for the purpose of
negotiating an agreement pursuant to which the Partnership would release the
list of Unitholders to LFG.  Such negotiations





                                       16
<PAGE>   20
culminated in the execution of the Standstill Agreement in June 1996, at which
time a list of Unitholders was delivered to LFG.  LFG and the Partnership
subsequently agreed in October 1996 to amend the Standstill Agreement for the
purpose of clarifying the definition of the term "group" as used therein.  The
Standstill Agreement requires LFG and its affiliates (which includes Liquidity
Financial) to cause any party which enters into an advisory relationship with
it relating to the Partnership to become bound by the terms of the agreement.

       In July 1996, representatives of Liquidity Financial contacted
representatives of AREA II for the purpose of exploring a possible new
financial advisory relationship between Liquidity Financial and AREA II.  These
discussions continued throughout the summer of 1996 and culminated in the
execution of a new Agreement in Principle in September 1996 (the "1996
Agreement in Principle").  The 1996 Agreement in Principle outlines the terms
of a financial advisory relationship between Liquidity Financial and its
affiliates and AREA II and its affiliates with respect to certain tender offers
for limited partnership interests.  The 1996 Agreement in Principle identified
the Partnership as a potential target for such tender offers.

       On October 24, 1996, a representative of LFG contacted a representative
of the Partnership to request, on behalf of the Purchaser, that the General
Partners agree to admit Purchaser as a Substitute Limited Partner upon
Purchaser's acceptance of Units for payment pursuant to the terms of the Offer.
During that conversation, the Partnership's representative indicated that in
order to agree to this admission, the Partnership needed to be satisfied that
consummation of the Offer would not cause the Partnership to be classified as a
"publicly-traded partnership" (a "PTP") for tax purposes.  Later that day, a
memorandum from Purchaser's counsel was sent to the Partnership concluding that
the Offer would not cause it to be a PTP and a letter agreement was sent to one
of the General Partners requesting such admission as a Substitute Limited
Partner.  On October 29, 1996, counsel for the Partnership, in a letter to LFG,
responded to the memorandum prepared by the Purchaser's counsel.  During the
week of November 4th, counsel for the Purchaser and counsel for the Partnership
continued to discuss the PTP status issue.  On November 11, 1996, counsel for
the Purchaser and counsel for the Partnership agreed on a form of opinion
letter regarding the PTP issue that would be delivered upon the Purchaser's
admission as a Substitute Limited Partner.  On November 12, 1996, LFG provided
the Partnership with notice that the Purchaser planned to commence the Offer
five business days after the Partnership's receipt of this notice.  On November
14, 1996, LFG requested a current list of Unitholders and the lists of
securityholders of various entities affiliated with the Partnership, which list
was received by LFG on November 19, 1996.  Also on November 19, 1996, a General
Partner of the Partnership executed a letter to the Purchaser indicating its
agreement to admit the Purchaser, or cause the Purchaser to be admitted, as a
Substitute Limited Partner (i) upon the Purchaser's payment for Units pursuant
to the Offer, (ii) upon delivery of an opinion of Purchaser's counsel that the
Offer would not cause the Partnership to be a PTP and (iii) upon delivery, in
satisfactory form, of the Partnership's standard transfer paperwork, payment of
standard transfer fee and satisfaction of any other standard ministerial
matter.  On November 20, 1996, a representative of the Purchaser contacted a
representative of the Partnership for the purpose of confirming the
commencement date of the Offer and the fact that Purchaser does not have any
current plan to change the current management or the operations of the
Partnership.

       On November 21, 1996, immediately prior to the commencement of this
Offer, (i) Liquidity Financial and the Purchaser entered into a definitive
advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") relating to the Offer, and (ii)
Liquidity Financial provided the Purchaser with its list of Unitholders.
Pursuant to the terms of an option agreement, dated November 21, 1996,
Liquidity Financial Group, L.P., an affiliate of Liquidity Financial, has the
option, for the 6 month period following the Purchaser's acceptance for payment
of the tendered Units, to acquire, indirectly through a member of the
Purchaser, up to a 5% interest in the Purchaser.

       12.    SOURCE OF FUNDS.

       The Purchaser expects that approximately $3,142,500 (exclusive of fees
and expenses) would be required to purchase the Units sought pursuant to the
Offer, if tendered.  The Purchaser presently contemplates that it will obtain
all of such funds from capital contributions from its members who have an
aggregate net worth substantially in excess of the amount required to purchase
the Units.  One of the Purchaser's members, Apollo Real Estate Investment Fund
II, L.P., has capital commitments from institutional and other investors for
aggregate amounts that exceed $500 million.  However, the Purchaser may seek to
obtain debt financing to facilitate the purchase of Units, but no commitment
has been obtained for any such debt financing.





                                       17
<PAGE>   21
       13.    PURCHASE PRICE CONSIDERATIONS.

       The Purchaser has set the Purchase Price at $375 net per Unit (subject
to adjustment as set forth in this Offer to Purchase).  The Purchaser
established the Purchase Price by analyzing a number of quantitative and
qualitative factors including:  (i) the absence of a significant number of
recent secondary market resales of the Units; (ii) the lack of liquidity of an
investment in the Partnership; (iii) the costs to the Purchaser associated with
acquiring the Units; (iv) the administrative costs of continuing to own the
Partnership's assets through a publicly registered limited partnership; (v) the
possibility that Unitholders may realize taxable income in excess of tax
distributions from the Partnership in future years; (vi) the inability of
Unitholders to exercise effective control over the management of the
Partnership through the annual election of the General Partners; and (vii)
estimated transaction costs of completing the Offer.

       Form 10-K states that "[t]here is no public market for the Units and it
is not anticipated that any such public market will develop."  At present,
privately negotiated sales and sales through intermediaries (e.g., through the
trading system operated by Chicago Partnership Board, Inc., which publishes
sales by holders of Units) are the only means available to a Unitholder to
liquidate an investment in Units (other than the Offer) because the Units are
not listed or traded on any exchange or quoted on any NASDAQ list or system.
According to The Partnership Spectrum, an independent third-party industry
publication, for the six months ended September 30, 1996, a total of 135 Units
traded at per Unit prices between $260 and $360 with a weighted average of
$278.22 per Unit.  Set forth below is a schedule of the trading activity of
Units during the six months ended September 30, 1996, in two-month intervals,
as reported by The Partnership Spectrum:

</TABLE>

Unitholders are advised, however, that such gross sales prices reported by The
Partnership Spectrum do not necessarily reflect the net sales proceeds received
by sellers of Units, which typically are reduced by commissions and other
secondary market transaction costs to amounts less than the reported prices.

       The September/October 1996 issue of The Partnership Spectrum has also
reported that the General Partners estimate that the net asset value of each
Unit is $787.  The Purchaser believes, however, that the General Partners'
estimate of net asset value is not necessarily representative of the value of
the Units when the Partnership ultimately liquidates its Properties.  The
Purchaser believes that property selling costs and expenses (e.g., brokers'
commissions, attorneys' fees, escrow fees, title company costs, rent
guarantees, correction of deferred maintenance, etc.), which could be incurred
by the Partnership in disposing of the Properties, may significantly reduce the
gross sale proceeds paid to the Partnership and, in turn, the amount of cash
available for distribution to the Unitholders.

       The Purchase Price represents the price at which the Purchaser is
willing to purchase Units.  No independent person has been retained to evaluate
or render any opinion with respect to the fairness of the Purchase Price and no
representation is made by the Purchaser or any affiliate of the Purchaser as to
such fairness.  The Purchaser did not attempt to obtain current independent
valuations or appraisals of the underlying assets owned by the Partnership.
Other measures of the value of the Units may be relevant to Unitholders.
Unitholders are urged to consider carefully all of the information contained
herein and consult with their own advisors, tax, financial or otherwise, in
evaluating the terms of the Offer before deciding whether to tender Units.

connection with, the Offer; or

       (h)    the Partnership or either of its General Partners shall have
amended, or proposed or authorized any amendment to, the Partnership Agreement
or the Purchaser shall have become aware that the Partnership or either of its
General Partners have proposed any such amendment.

       The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of the Purchaser and
its affiliates and may be asserted by the Purchaser regardless of the
circumstances (including, without limitation, any action or inaction by the
Purchaser or any of its affiliates) giving rise to such condition, or may be
waived by the Purchaser, in whole or in part, from time to time in its sole
discretion.  The failure by the Purchaser at any time to exercise the foregoing
rights will not be deemed a waiver of such rights, which will be deemed to be
ongoing and may be asserted at any time and from time to time.  Any
determination by the Purchaser concerning the events described in this Section
14 will be final and binding upon all parties.

        15.   CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS.

       Except as set forth in this Offer to Purchase, based on its review of
publicly available filings by the Partnership with the Commission and other
publicly available information regarding the Partnership, the Purchaser is not
aware of any licenses or regulatory permits that would be material to the
business of the Partnership, taken as a whole, and that might be adversely
affected by the Purchaser's acquisition of Units as contemplated herein, or any
filings, approvals or other actions by or with any domestic or foreign
governmental authority or administrative or regulatory agency that would be
required prior to the acquisition of Units by the Purchaser pursuant to the
Offer as contemplated herein, other than the filing of a Tender Offer Statement
on Schedule 14D-1 (which has been filed) and any required amendments thereto.
Should any such approval or other action be required, there can be no assurance
that any such additional approval or action, if needed, would be obtained
without substantial conditions or that adverse consequences might not result to
the Partnership's business, or that certain parts of the Partnership's or the
Purchaser's business might not have to be disposed of or held separate or other
substantial conditions complied with in order to obtain such approval or action
in the event that such approvals were not obtained or such actions were not
taken.

       APPRAISAL RIGHTS.  Unitholders will not have appraisal rights as a
result of the Offer.

       STATE ANTI-TAKEOVER LAWS.  A number of states have adopted anti-takeover
laws which purport, to varying degrees, to be applicable to attempts to acquire
securities of corporations or other entities which are incorporated or
organized in such states or which have substantial assets, securityholders,
principal executive officers or principal places of business therein.  Although
the Purchaser has not attempted to comply with any state anti-takeover statutes
in connection with the Offer, the Purchaser reserves the right to challenge the
validity or applicability or any state law allegedly applicable to the Offer
and nothing in this Offer to Purchase nor any action taken in connection
therewith is intended as a waiver of such right.  If any state anti-takeover
statute is applicable to the Offer, the Purchaser might be unable to accept for
payment or purchase Units tendered pursuant to the Offer or be delayed in
continuing or consummating the Offer.  In such case, the Purchaser may not be
obliged to accept for purchase or pay for any Units tendered.

       ERISA.  By executing and returning the Letter of Transmittal, a
Unitholder will be representing that either (a) the Unitholder is not a plan
subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,





                                       20
<PAGE>   24
as amended ("ERISA"), or Section 4975 of the Code, or an entity deemed to hold
"plan assets" within the meaning of 29.C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 of any such
plan; or (b) the tender and acceptance of Units pursuant to the Offer will not
result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code.

       MARGIN REQUIREMENTS.  The Units are not "margin securities" under the
regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and,
accordingly, those regulations generally are not applicable to the Offer.

       ANTITRUST.  Under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of
1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), and the rules and regulations that have been
promulgated thereunder by the Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC"), certain
acquisition transactions may not be consummated until certain information and
documentary material has been furnished for review by the Antitrust Division of
the Department of Justice and the FTC and certain waiting period requirements
have been satisfied.  The Purchaser does not believe any filing is required
under the HSR Act with respect to its acquisition of Units contemplated by the
Offer.

        16.   CERTAIN FEES AND EXPENSES.

       Except as set forth in this Section 16, the Purchaser will not pay any
fees or commissions to any broker, dealer or other person for soliciting
tenders of Units pursuant to the Offer.  The Purchaser has retained The Herman
Group, Inc. to act as Information Agent/Depositary in connection with the
Offer.  The Purchaser will pay the Information Agent/Depositary reasonable and
customary compensation for its services, plus reimbursement for  certain
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, and has agreed to indemnify the Information
Agent/Depositary against certain liabilities and expenses in connection
therewith, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws.
The Purchaser will also pay all costs and expenses of printing and mailing the
Offer and its legal fees and expenses.

       17.    MISCELLANEOUS.

       The Offer is being made to all Unitholders, Beneficial Owners and
Assignees, all to the extent known by the Purchaser.  The Purchaser is not
aware of any state in which the making of the Offer is prohibited by
administrative or judicial action pursuant to a state statute.  If the
Purchaser becomes aware of any state where the making of the Offer is so
prohibited, the Purchaser will make a good faith effort to comply with any such
statute or seek to have such statute declared inapplicable to the Offer.  If,
after such good faith effort, the Purchaser cannot comply with any applicable
statute, the Offer will not be made to (nor will tenders be accepted from or on
behalf of) Unitholders in such state.

       Pursuant to Rule 14d-3 of the General Rules and Regulations under the
Exchange Act, the Purchaser has filed with the Commission a Tender Offer
Statement on Schedule 14D-1, together with exhibits, furnishing certain
additional information with respect to the Offer.  Such statement and any
amendments thereto, including exhibits, may be inspected and copies may be
obtained at the same places and in the same manner as set forth with respect to
information concerning the Partnership in Section 9 ("Certain Information
Concerning the Partnership").

       NO PERSON HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED TO GIVE ANY INFORMATION OR MAKE ANY
REPRESENTATION ON BEHALF OF THE PURCHASER NOT CONTAINED HEREIN OR IN THE LETTER
OF TRANSMITTAL AND, IF GIVEN OR MADE, SUCH INFORMATION OR REPRESENTATION MUST
NOT BE RELIED UPON AS HAVING BEEN AUTHORIZED.

THE OFFER, PRORATION PERIOD AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS WILL EXPIRE AT MIDNIGHT, NEW
YORK CITY TIME, ON FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1996 (THE "EXPIRATION DATE") UNLESS
SUCH OFFER IS EXTENDED.

    The undersigned hereby tender(s) to Krescent Partners L.L.C., a Delaware
limited liability company (the "Purchaser"), the number of units of Investor
Limited Partnership Interests ("Units") of Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-V,
a Massachusetts limited partnership (the "Partnership"), specified above,
pursuant to the Purchaser's offer to purchase up to 8,380 of the issued and
outstanding Units at a purchase price of $375 per Unit, net to the seller in
cash (the "Purchase Price"), without interest thereon, upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated November 21,
1996 (the "Offer to Purchase") and this Letter of Transmittal (the "Letter of
Transmittal", which, together with the Offer to Purchase and any supplements,
modifications or amendments thereto, constitute the "Offer"), all as more fully
described in the Offer to Purchase.  The Purchase Price will be automatically
reduced by the aggregate amount of distributions per Unit, if any, made or
declared by the Partnership after November 21, 1996 and on or prior to 12:00
midnight, New York City time, on December 20, 1996 (the "Expiration Date").  In
addition, if a distribution is made or declared after the Expiration Date but
prior to the date on which the Purchaser pays the Purchase Price for the
tendered Units, the Purchaser will offset the amount otherwise due a holder of
Units pursuant to the Offer in respect of tendered Units which have been
accepted for payment but not yet paid for by the amount of any such
distribution.  UNITHOLDERS WHO TENDER THEIR UNITS WILL NOT BE OBLIGATED TO PAY
ANY COMMISSIONS OR PARTNERSHIP TRANSFER FEES, WHICH COMMISSIONS OR PARTNERSHIP
TRANSFER FEES WILL BE BORNE BY THE PURCHASER.  Receipt of the Offer to Purchase
is hereby acknowledged.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the
respective meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase.

    By executing and delivering this Letter of Transmittal a tendering
Unitholder irrevocably appoints the Purchaser and designees of the Purchaser
and each of them as such Unitholder's proxies, with full power of substitution,
in the manner set forth in this Letter of Transmittal to the full extent of
such Unitholder's rights with respect to the Units tendered by such Unitholder
and accepted for payment by the Purchaser (and with respect to any and all
other Units or other securities issued or issuable in respect of such Unit on
or after the date hereof).  All such proxies shall be considered irrevocable
and coupled with an interest in the tendered Units.  Such appointment will be
effective when, and only to the extent that, the Purchaser accepts such Units
for payment.  Upon such acceptance for payment, all prior proxies given by such
Unitholder with respect to such Units (and such other Units and securities)
will be revoked without further action, and no subsequent proxies may be given
nor any subsequent written consent executed (and, if given or executed, will
not be deemed effective).  The Purchaser and its designees will, with respect
to the Units (and such other Units and securities) for which such appointment
is effective, be empowered to exercise all voting and other rights of such
Unitholder as they in their sole discretion may deem proper at any meeting of
Unitholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof, by written consent in
lieu of any such meeting or otherwise.  The Purchaser reserves the right to
require that, in order for a Unit to be deemed validly tendered, immediately
upon the Purchaser's payment for such Unit, the Purchaser must be able to
exercise full voting rights with respect to such Unit and other securities,
including voting at any meeting of Unitholders.

    By executing and delivering the Letter of Transmittal, a tendering
Unitholder also irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Purchaser and its
designees as the Unitholder's attorneys-in-fact, each with full power of
substitution to the extent of the Unitholder's rights with respect to the Units
tendered by the Unitholder and accepted for payment by the Purchaser.  Such
appointment will be effective when, and only to the extent that, the Purchaser
accepts the tendered Units for payment.  Upon such acceptance for payment, all
prior powers of attorney granted by the Unitholder with respect to such Unit
will, without further action, be revoked, and no subsequent powers of attorney
may be granted (and if granted will not be effective).  Pursuant to such
appointment as attorneys-in-fact, the Purchaser and its designees each will
have the power, among other things, (i) to seek to transfer ownership of such
Units on the Partnership's books maintained by the transfer agent for the
Partnership (and execute and deliver any accompanying evidences of transfer and
authenticity any of them may deem necessary or appropriate in connection
therewith, including, without limitation, any documents or instruments required
to be executed under a "Transferor's (Seller's) Application for Transfer"
created by the NASD, if required), (ii) upon receipt by the Information
Agent/Depositary (as the tendering Unitholder's agent) of the Purchase Price,
to become a Substitute Limited Partner, to receive any and all distributions
made by the Partnership after the Expiration Date, and to receive all benefits
and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Units in
accordance with the terms of the Offer, (iii) to execute and deliver to the
Partnership and/or the General Partners (as the case may be) a change of
address form instructing the Partnership to send any and all future
distributions to which the Purchaser is entitled pursuant to the terms of the
Offer in respect of tendered Units to the address specified in such form and
(iv) to endorse any check payable to or upon the order of such Unitholder
representing a distribution to which the Purchaser is entitled pursuant to the
terms of the Offer, in each case on behalf of the tendering Unitholder.  If
legal title to the Units is held through an IRA or KEOGH or similar account,
the Unitholder understands that this Letter of Transmittal must be signed by
the custodian of such IRA or KEOGH account and the Unitholder hereby authorizes
and directs the custodian of such IRA or KEOGH to confirm this Letter of
Transmittal.  This Power of Attorney shall not be affected by the subsequent
mental disability of the Unitholder, and the Purchaser shall not be required to
post bond in any nature in connection with this Power of Attorney.

    By executing and delivering this Letter of Transmittal, a tendering
Unitholder irrevocably assigns to the Purchaser and its assigns all of the
right, title and interest of such Unitholder in the Partnership with respect to
the Units tendered and purchased pursuant to the Offer, including, without
limitation, such Unitholder's right, title and interest in and to any and all
distributions made by the Partnership after the Expiration Date in respect of
the Units tendered by such Unitholder and accepted for payment by the
Purchaser, regardless of the fact that the record date for any such
distribution may be a date prior to the Expiration Date.  The Purchaser will
seek to be admitted to the Partnership as a Substitute Limited Partner upon
consummation of the Offer.  By executing and delivering this Letter of
Transmittal, the undersigned, being a tendering Unitholder, expressly intends
the Purchaser to become a Substitute Limited Partner.

    By executing this Letter of Transmittal, the undersigned represents that
either (a) the undersigned is not a plan subject to Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") or Section 4975 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or an entity deemed
to hold "plan assets" within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-101 of any
such plan; or (b) the tender and acceptance of Units pursuant to the Offer will
not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code.

    The undersigned recognizes that, if proration is required pursuant to the
terms of the Offer, the Purchaser will accept for payment from among those
Units validly tendered on or prior to the Expiration Date and not properly
withdrawn, the maximum number of Units permitted pursuant to the Offer on a pro
rata basis, with adjustments to avoid purchases of certain fractional Units and
purchases which would violate the terms of the Offer, based upon the number of
Units validly tendered prior to the Expiration Date and not properly withdrawn.

    The undersigned understands that a tender of Units to the Purchaser will
constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and the Purchaser upon
the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.  The undersigned
recognizes that under certain circumstances set forth in Section 2 ("Proration;
Acceptance for Payment and Payment for Units") and Section 14 ("Conditions of
the Offer") of the Offer to Purchase, the Purchaser may not be required to
accept for payment any of the Units tendered hereby.  In such event, the
undersigned understands that any Letter of Transmittal for Units not accepted
for payment will be destroyed by the Purchaser.  Except as stated in Section 4
("Withdrawal Rights") of the Offer to Purchase, this tender is irrevocable,
provided Units tendered pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time
prior to the Expiration Date.

                              SUBSTITUTE FORM W-9
                              (See Instruction 3)

  The person signing this Letter of Transmittal hereby certifies the following
  to the Purchaser under penalties of perjury:

  (i)  The Taxpayer Identification Number ("TIN") furnished in the space
  provided for that purpose in the Signature Box of this Letter of Transmittal
  is the correct TIN of the Unitholder, unless the Units are held in an
  Individual Retirement Account ("IRA"); or if this box [ ] is checked, the
  Unitholder has applied for a TIN.  If the Unitholder has applied for a TIN, a
  TIN has not been issued to the Unitholder, and either (a) the Unitholder has
  mailed or delivered an application to receive a TIN to the appropriate
  Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Center or Social Security Administration
  Office, or (b) the Unitholder intends to mail or deliver an application in
  the near future, it is hereby understood that if the Unitholder does not
  provide a TIN to the Purchaser within sixty (60) days 31% of all reportable
  payments made to the Unitholder thereafter will be withheld until a TIN is
  provided to the Purchaser; and

  (ii)  Unless this box [ ] is checked, the Unitholder is not subject to backup
  withholding either because the Unitholder (a) is exempt from backup
  withholding, (b) has not been notified by the IRS that the Unitholder is
  subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest
  or dividends, or (c) has been notified by the IRS that such Unitholder is no
  longer subject to backup withholding.

  Note:  Place an "X" in the box in (ii) above, if you are unable to certify
  that the Unitholder is not subject to backup withholding.


                                     BOX B
                                FIRPTA AFFIDAVIT
                              (See Instruction 3)

  Under Section 1445(c)(5) of the Code and Treas. Reg. 1.1445-IIT(d), a
  transferee must withhold tax equal to 10% of the amount realized with respect
  to certain transfers of an interest in a partnership if 50% or more of the
  value of its gross assets consists of U.S. real property interests and 90% or
  more of the value of its gross assets consists of U.S. real property
  interests plus cash or cash equivalents, and the holder of the partnership
  interest is a foreign person.  To inform the Purchaser that no withholding is
  required with respect to the Unitholder's interest in the Partnership, the
  person signing this Letter of Transmittal hereby certifies the following
  under penalties of perjury:

  (i)  Unless this box [ ] is checked, the Unitholder, if an individual, is a
  U.S. citizen or a resident alien for purposes of U.S. income taxation, and if
  other than an individual, is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership,
  foreign trust or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Code and
  Income Tax Regulations);

  (ii)  the Unitholder's U.S. social security number (for individuals) or
  employer identification number (for non- individuals) is correct as furnished
  in the blank provided for that purpose on the back of this Letter of
  Transmittal; and

  (iii)  the Unitholder's home address (for individuals), or office address
  (for non-individuals), is correctly printed (or corrected) on the back of
  this Letter of Transmittal.  If a corporation, the jurisdiction of
  incorporation is _________________________.

  The person signing this Letter of Transmittal understands that this
  certification may be disclosed to the IRS by the Purchaser and that any false
  statements contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.


                                     BOX C

                              (See Instruction 3)

  By checking this box [ ], the person signing this Letter of Transmittal
  hereby certifies under penalties of perjury that the Unitholder is an "exempt
  foreign person" for purposes of the backup withholding rules under U.S.
  federal income tax laws, because the Unitholder:

  (i)    Is a nonresident alien or a foreign corporation, partnership, estate
         or trust;

  (ii)   If an individual, has not been and plans not be present in the U.S.
         for a total of 183 days or more during the calendar year; and

  (iii)  Neither engages, nor plans to engage, in a U.S. trade or business that
         has effectively connected gains from transactions with a broker or
         barter exchange.


For Units to be accepted for purchase, Unitholders should complete and sign
this Letter of Transmittal in the Signature Box and return it in the

         FOLLOWING NOTE AS A GUIDELINE:

                 NOTE:  INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS should reflect their own TIN.

      (i)  In order to avoid 31% federal income tax backup withholding, the
           Unitholder must provide to the Purchaser in the blank provided for
           that purpose in the Signature Box on the back of the Letter of
           Transmittal the Unitholder's correct TIN and certify, under
           penalties of perjury, that such Unitholder is not subject to such
           backup withholding.  The TIN being provided on the Substitute Form
           W-9 is that of the registered Unitholder as indicated in the
           Signature Box on the back of the Letter of Transmittal.  If a
           correct TIN is not provided, penalties may be imposed by the IRS, in
           addition to the Unitholder being subject to backup withholding.
           Certain Unitholders (including, among others, all corporations) are
           not subject to backup withholding.  Backup withholding is not an
           additional tax.  If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes,
           a refund may be obtained from the IRS.

      (ii) DO NOT CHECK THE BOX IN BOX A, PART (ii), UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN
           NOTIFIED BY THE IRS THAT YOU ARE SUBJECT TO BACKUP WITHHOLDING.

      FIRPTA AFFIDAVIT - BOX. B.  To avoid withholding of tax pursuant to
      Section 1445 of the Code, each Unitholder who or which is a United States
      Person (as defined in Instruction 3 above) must certify, under penalties
      of perjury, the Unitholder's TIN and address, and that the Unitholder is
      not a foreign person.  Tax withheld under Section 1445 of the Internal
      Revenue Code is not an additional tax.  If withholding results in an
      overpayment of tax, a refund may be obtained from the IRS.  CHECK THE BOX
      IN BOX B, PART (ii) ONLY IF YOU ARE NOT A U.S. PERSON, AS DESCRIBED
      THEREIN.

5.    FOREIGN PERSONS - BOX C.  In order for a Unitholder who is a foreign
      person (i.e., not a United States Person as defined in Instruction 3
      above) to qualify as exempt from 31% backup withholding, such foreign
      Unitholder must certify, under penalties of perjury, the statement in Box
      C of this Letter of Transmittal attesting to that foreign person's status
      by checking the box in such statement.  UNLESS SUCH BOX IS CHECKED, SUCH
      FOREIGN PERSON WILL BE SUBJECT TO 31% WITHHOLDING OF TAX UNDER SECTION
      1445 OF THE CODE.

6.    CONDITIONAL TENDERS.  No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders
      will be accepted.

7.    VALIDITY OF LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.  All questions as to the validity,
      form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of a Letter
      of Transmittal will be determined by the Purchaser and such determination
      will be final and binding.  The Purchaser's interpretation of the terms
      and conditions of the Offer (including these instructions for the Letter
      of Transmittal) also will be final and binding.  The Purchaser will have
      the right to waive any irregularities or conditions as to the manner of
      tendering.  Any irregularities in connection with tenders must be cured
      within such time as the Purchaser shall determine unless waived by it.

      The Letter of Transmittal will not be valid unless and until any
      irregularities have been cured or waived.  Neither the Purchaser nor the
      Information Agent/Depositary is under any duty to give notification of
      defects in a Letter of Transmittal and will incur no liability for
      failure to give such notification.

8.    ASSIGNEE STATUS.  Assignees must provide documentation to the Information
      Agent/Depositary which demonstrates, to the satisfaction of the
      Purchaser, such person's status as an assignee.

9.    INADEQUATE SPACE.  If the space provided herein is inadequate, the
      numbers of Units and any other information should be listed on a separate
      schedule attached hereto and separately signed on each page thereof in

                       $375 PER UNIT OFFER TO PURCHASE


To Unitholders in Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-V:

                 KRESCENT PARTNERS L.L.C., A DELAWARE LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY
(THE "PURCHASER"), IS OFFERING TO PURCHASE UP TO 8,380 OF THE OUTSTANDING UNITS
OF INVESTOR LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS (THE "UNITS") IN KRUPP REALTY LIMITED
PARTNERSHIP-V (THE "PARTNERSHIP") FOR A CASH PURCHASE PRICE OF $375 PER UNIT,
NET TO THE SELLER, UPON THE TERMS AND SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN
THE ATTACHED OFFER TO PURCHASE, DATED NOVEMBER 21, 1996, AND THE RELATED LETTER
OF TRANSMITTAL (WHICH TOGETHER CONSTITUTE THE "OFFER").

                 Unless extended by the Purchaser, the Offer is effective until
midnight, New York City time, on December 20, 1996.  The Offer is not
conditioned upon any minimum number of Units being tendered; however, tenders
of less than all Units owned by a Unitholder that would result in such
Unitholder holding less than 10 Units or tenders of fractional Units will not
be accepted.

                 The materials included in this package include important
information concerning the Purchaser, the terms and conditions to the Offer,
tax implications and instructions for tendering your Units.  It is important
that you take some time to read carefully the enclosed Offer to Purchase, the
Letter of Transmittal and other accompanying materials in order to evaluate the
Offer being made by the Purchaser.

         In reviewing the Offer, please note:

         o       Offer is a Premium to the per Unit Secondary Market Price.

                          $278.22 per Unit was the weighted average selling 
                          price for Units in the limited secondary market for 
                          the six months ended September 30, 1996.  Unitholders
                          are advised, however, that such amount is not 
                          necessarily indicative of value.

         o       No Commissions and No Transfer Fees.

                          The Purchaser will pay any transfer fees charged by 
                          the Partnership in connection with transferring the 
                          ownership of your Units pursuant to the Offer and 
                          commissions in connection with tendering your Units 
                          pursuant to the Offer.

         o       No More K-1 Reporting Costs if You Sell All of Your Units.

                          If you sell all of your Units you will avoid the 
                          expense, delay, and complications in filing complex 
                          tax returns which result from an ownership of Units.

                 You must decide whether to tender your Units based on your own
particular circumstances, including your judgment of the value of your Units
taking into account their upside potential and risks.  You should consult with
your advisors about the financial, tax, legal and other implications to you of
accepting the Offer.

                 If you desire additional information regarding the Offer or
need assistance in tendering your Units, you may call The Herman Group, Inc.,
which is acting as Information Agent/Depositary for the Offer, at (800)

amended, with respect to any voting securities of a Krupp Fund;

influence any person with respect to the voting of any voting securities of any

         5.      Use of Lists, Prohibition on Furnishing to Others:  Any

         8.      Provision of Copies of All Communications:  Liquidity and

least 5 business days before mailing or otherwise distributing to investors in

         9.      Fiduciary Duties of Krupp; Safe Harbor Provision, Protection
of Partnership Status:  Liquidity acknowledges that:

         (a)     Krupp and its affiliates have significant fiduciary
obligations to the investors in the Krupp Funds, and has stated that it is
entering into this Agreement to, among other things, fulfill those fiduciary
obligations;

         (b)     Krupp may need to take certain further action to meet its
fiduciary obligations, including, without limitation, suspending the acceptance
of transfer paperwork in one or more Krupp Funds to avoid the termination of
such Krupp Fund's status as a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 (the "Code"), as amended; avoid the treatment of such Krupp Fund as a
Publicly Traded Partnership under the Code; or cause the Krupp Fund to fall
outside any so-called "Safe Harbor" provision relating to taxation or tax
status, including provisions relating to Publicly Traded Partnerships; and

         (c)     That the suspension of the acceptance of transfer paperwork by
Krupp would mean that, notwithstanding the presentment of valid transfer
paperwork and the terms of this Agreement, transfers requested by Liquidity or
a Liquidity Affiliate would not be processed nor reflected on the books and
records of the Krupp Fund.

         Nothing herein shall be construed, however, as an acknowledgement or
agreement by Liquidity that Krupp has the right under any particular
circumstances to suspend the acceptance of transfer paperwork, or as a waiver
of any future claims of Liquidity arising out of any such suspension or other
similar action.

         10.     Release:  For and in consideration of the agreements herein
made, Liquidity, individually and on behalf of the Liquidity Affiliates, does
hereby remise, release and acquit Krupp and all of its partners, officers,
directors, affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns and each of their
partners, officers, directors, affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns
from and against any and all claims, damages, costs, expenses, actions and
causes of action which Liquidity and the Liquidity Affiliates (including their
partners, officers, directors, affiliates, successors and assigns and all of
their partners, officers, directors, affiliates, predecessors, successors and
assigns) had in the past, now has, or may in the





                                       4

future acquire arising from or related to the failure or refusal of Krupp to
provide an investor list of any Krupp Fund, except for such a failure or
refusal in violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

                                OPTION AGREEMENT

                 AGREEMENT, dated as of November 21, 1996 (this "Agreement"),
by and between Liquidity Financial Group, L.P., a California limited
partnership (the "Optionee"), and Apollo Real Estate Investment Fund II, L.P.,
a Delaware limited partnership (the "Fund").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

                 WHEREAS, the Fund owns 29.23% of the outstanding limited
liability company interests (the "Krescent Interests") of Krescent LFG L.L.C.,
a Delaware limited liability company ("Krescent LFG");

                 WHEREAS, Krescent LFG owns 17.1% of the outstanding limited
liability company interests (the "Bidder Interests") of Krescent Partners
L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the "Bidder");

                 WHEREAS, the Bidder has commenced or will commence tender
offers (the "Tender Offers") to acquire units of Investor Limited Partnership
Interest (or assignee interests therein or depositary certificates representing
such units) (the "Units") of various real estate limited partnerships sponsored
and/or managed by The Krupp Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (the
"Targets"); and

                 WHEREAS, the Fund desires to grant to the Optionee an option
to acquire up to 100% of the Fund's Krescent Interests (the "Option
Interests"), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement.

                 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises,
the mutual covenants set forth herein and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the
Optionee and the Fund hereby agree as follows:

         1.      Grant of the Options.  The Fund hereby grants to the Optionee
the right to purchase (the "Option") all or any part of the Option Interests
from the Fund exercisable from the date Bidder accepts for payment Units
tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer until that date which is six months after
the date the Option becomes exercisable (the "Option Period"), at a purchase
price (the "Purchase Price") equal to five percent (5%) of the aggregate
consideration paid and expenses incurred by the Bidder for the Units in the
Tender Offer together with interest at a rate of 20% per annum based on a year
of 366 days (calculated from and after the date of the closing of the Tender
Offer through and including the date of the closing of the Option).  If
Optionee does not exercise the entire Option, the Purchase Price shall be
reduced pro rata in accordance with the percentage of the entire Option
exercised by the Optionee.





<PAGE>   2
         2.      Exercise of the Option.  The Option to purchase the Option
Interests shall be exercisable in whole or in part on the terms and subject to
the conditions hereinafter set forth:

                 (a)      In the event that the Optionee is entitled to and
wishes to exercise the Option, the Optionee shall, during the Option Period,
send a written notice (the "Exercise Notice") to the Fund identifying the date
and place for the closing (the "Closing") of the Option Interests to be
purchased.  Delivery of the Exercise Notice prior to the expiration of the
Option Period shall be sufficient to entitle the Optionee to purchase the
Option Interests notwithstanding that the Closing may occur after the
expiration of the Option Period; provided, however, that the Closing shall not
be more than fifteen (15) business days from the date that the Exercise Notice
is received by the Fund unless another date is agreed upon in writing by the
Fund and the Optionee.

                 (b)      Payment of the Purchase Price for the Option
Interests to be acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Option will be made by
the Optionee at the Closing by delivering to the Fund, by wire transfer or by
certified check payable to the order of the Fund, an amount equal to the
Purchase Price.

         3.      Transferability of the Option.  The Option may not be
assigned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, or pledged or hypothecated or
in any way be subject to execution, attachment or other process.  Any
assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Option
attempted contrary to the provisions of this Agreement or any levy, execution,
attachment or other process attempted upon the Option will be null and void and
without effect.

         4.      Sale of Option Interests.  Except as provided in this
Agreement, the Fund shall not, without the express written consent of the
Optionee, during the Option Period, (i) sell or otherwise dispose of any or all
of the Option Interests, or (ii) convert such Option Interests into cash,
capital stock or other securities.

         5.      Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization.  In the event of
any change in the Krescent Interests by reason of dividends, split-ups,
recapitalizations, combinations, exchanges of interests or the like, the type
and number of interests of Krescent Interests subject to the Option and the
Purchase Price shall be appropriately adjusted and proper provision shall be
made so that, in the event that any additional Krescent Interests become
outstanding as a result of any such change after the date of this Agreement,
the Option shall be adjusted so that, after such change and together with the
Krescent Interests previously outstanding pursuant to the exercise of the
Option (as adjusted on account of any of the foregoing change in Krescent
Interests), it equals 29.23% of the number of Krescent Interests then
outstanding.

         6.      Investment.  The Optionee acknowledges that the Option
Interests are not being offered pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or any other securities laws.
The Optionee acknowledges that the Option Interests are being acquired for the
Optionee's own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or
for sale in connection with, any public distribution thereof and will not sell,
or offer to sell or otherwise dispose of, any interest in the Option Interests
acquired by the Optionee in violation of the Act.  The Optionee has had
substantial experience in business and financial matters and in making
investments of the type contemplated by this Agreement, is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of the purchase of the Option Interests and is
able to bear the economic risks of such investment.

agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Fund is a party or by
