Prospectus of Registrant, dated February 22, 1984, as supplemented is
incorporated in Parts I and IV.
CENTURY PROPERTIES FUND XX
(A limited partnership)
PART I
Item 1. Business.
Century Properties Fund XX (the "Registrant") was organized in December
1983 as a California limited partnership under the Uniform Limited Partnership
Act of the California Corporations Code. Fox Partners III, a California general
partnership, is the general partner of the Registrant. Fox Capital Management
Corporation (the "Managing General Partner") a California corporation, Fox
Realty Investors ("FRI"), a California general partnership, and Fox Partners
`84, a California general partnership, are the general partners of Fox Partners
III.
The Registrant's Registration Statement, filed pursuant to the Securities
Act of 1933 (No. 2-88615), was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") on February 22, 1984. The Registrant marketed its
securities pursuant to its Prospectuses dated February 22, 1984, and November 8,
1984, which were thereafter supplemented (hereinafter the "Prospectus"). The
Prospectus was filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the
Securities Act of 1933.
The principal business of the Registrant is and has been to acquire, manage
and ultimately sell income-producing real properties, and invest in, service and
ultimately collect or dispose of mortgage loans on income-producing real
properties. The Registrant is a "closed" limited partnership real estate
syndicate of the unspecified asset type. For a further description of the
business of the Registrant, see the sections entitled "Risk Factors" and
"Investment Objectives and Policies" of the Prospectus.
Beginning in February 1984 through April 1985, the Registrant offered
$35,000,000 in Individual Investor Units and $65,000,000 in Pension Investor
Notes ("Nonrecourse Promissory Notes" or "Promissory Notes"), and sold
$30,907,000 and $49,348,500, respectively. The net proceeds of this offering
were used to purchase four income-producing real properties including one
property which was acquired in two phases, and to fund seven mortgage loans
totaling $31,568,000. the Registrant's original property portfolio was
geographically diversified with properties acquired and properties on which
mortgage loans have been funded in seven states. The Registrant's acquisition
and mortgage loan funding activities were completed in February 1986 and since
then the principal activity of the Registrant has been managing its portfolio.
Two mortgage loans were prepaid in 1989, one was prepaid in 1991, and another
was satisfied in 1994. (See "Property Matters", below). In April 1991, the
Registrant finalized foreclosure proceedings on the property securing a mortgage
loan and during 1992 finalized foreclosure proceedings against the borrowers on
two additional mortgage loans. The remaining mortgage loan was prepaid in 1992.
See, "Item 2, Properties" below for a description of the Registrant's
properties.
The Registrant is involved in only one industry segment, as described
above. The business of the Registrant is not seasonal. The Registrant does not
engage in any foreign operations or derive revenues from foreign sources.
Both the income and the expenses of operating the properties owned by the
Registrant are subject to factors beyond the Registrant's control, such as
oversupply of similar rental facilities resulting from overbuilding, increases
in unemployment or population shifts, changes in zoning laws or changes in
patterns of needs of the users. Expenses, such as local real estate taxes and
management expenses, are subject to change and cannot always be reflected in
rental increases due to market conditions or existing leases. The profitability
and marketability of developed real property may be adversely affected by
changes in general and local economic conditions and in prevailing interest
rates. Favorable changes in such factors will not necessarily enhance the
profitability or marketability of such properties. Even under the most favorable
market conditions there is no guarantee that any property owned by the
Registrant can be sold by it or, if sold, that such sale can be made upon
favorable terms.
It is possible that legislation on the state or local level may be enacted
in states where the Registrant's properties are located which may include some
form of rent control. There have been, and it is possible there may be other,
Federal, state and local legislation and regulations enacted relating to the
protection of the environment. The Managing General Partner is unable to predict
the extent, if any, to which such new legislation or regulations might occur and
the degree to which such existing or new legislation or regulations might
adversely affect the properties owned by the Registrant.
The Registrant monitors its properties for evidence of pollutants, toxins
and other dangerous substances, including the presence of asbestos. In certain
cases environmental testing has been performed, which resulted in no material
adverse conditions or liabilities. In no case has the Registrant received notice
that it is a potentially responsible party with respect to an environmental
clean up site.
The Registrant maintains property and liability insurance on the properties
and believes such coverage to be adequate.
With respect to individual investors, at this time, it appears that the
original investment objective of capital growth from the inception of the
Registrant will not be attained and that investors will not receive a return of
all of their invested capital. The extent to which invested capital is returned
to investors is dependent upon the success of the Registrant's strategy as set
forth in "Item 7" as well as upon significant improvement in the performance of
the Registrant's properties and the markets in which such properties are located
and on the sales price of the properties. In this regard, it is anticipated at
this time that some of the properties will be held longer than originally
expected. The ability to hold and operate these properties is dependent on the
Registrant's ability to obtain additional financing, refinancing, or debt
restructuring as required.
As to the Promissory Note holders, at this time, it appears that all
remaining principal and a portion of deferred interest will be paid. However,
the ability of the Registrant to make such payments of principal and interest is
dependent upon the ultimate sales prices, timing of sales of the remaining
properties, net proceeds received by the Registrant from sales and refinancing
and overall Fund operations. The Promissory Note holders will not receive any
payment of residual interest.
Property Matters
The Corners Apartments - On June 20, 1994, the Registrant satisfied the
note payable encumbering this property in the amount of $986,000. The Registrant
owns this property free and clear of all mortgages.
Employees
Services are performed for the Registrant at its apartment complexes by
on-site personnel all of whom are employees of NPI-AP Management, L.P.
("NPI-AP"), an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, which directly manages
the Registrant's apartment complexes. All payroll and associated expenses of
such on-site personnel are fully reimbursed by the Registrant to NPI-AP.
Pursuant to a management agreement, NPI-AP provides certain property management
services to the Registrant in addition to providing on-site management. With
respect to the Registrant's commercial properties, management is performed by
unaffiliated third party management companies pursuant to management agreements
with such third parties.
Change in Control
From March 1988 through December 1993, the Registrant's affairs were
managed by Metric Management, Inc. ("MMI") or a predecessor. On December 16,
1993, the services agreement with MMI was modified and, as a result thereof, the
Managing General Partner began directly providing real estate advisory and asset
management services to the Registrant. As advisor, such affiliate provides all
partnership accounting and administrative services, investment management, and
supervisory services over property management and leasing.
On December 6, 1993, the shareholders of the Managing General Partner
entered into a Voting Trust Agreement with NPI Equity Investments II, Inc. ("NPI
Equity II") pursuant to which NPI Equity II was granted the right to vote 100%
of the outstanding stock of the Managing General Partner. In addition, NPI
Equity II became the managing partner of FRI. As a result, NPI Equity II
indirectly became responsible for the operation and management of the business
and affairs of the Registrant and the other investment partnerships originally
sponsored by the Managing General Partner and/or FRI. The individuals who had
served previously as partners of FRI and as officers and directors of the
Managing General Partner contributed their general partnership interests in FRI
to a newly formed limited partnership, Portfolio Realty Associates, L.P.
("PRA"), in exchange for limited partnership interests in PRA. The shareholders
of the Managing General Partner and the prior partners of FRI, in their capacity
as limited partners of PRA, continue to hold indirectly certain economic
interests in the Registrant and such other investment limited partnerships, but
have ceased to be responsible for the operation and management of the Registrant
and such other partnerships.
On August 10, 1994, an affiliate of Apollo Real Estate Advisors, L.P.
("Apollo") obtained general and limited partnership interests in NPI-AP.
On October 12, 1994, Apollo acquired one-third of the stock of National
Property Investors, Inc. ("NPI"), the parent corporation of NPI Equity II.
Pursuant to the terms of the stock acquisition, Apollo was entitled to designate
three of the seven directors of the Managing General Partner and NPI Equity II.
In addition, the approval of certain major actions on behalf of the Registrant
required the affirmative vote of at least five directors of the Managing General
Partner.
On August 17, 1995, the stockholders of NPI entered into an agreement to
sell to IFGP Corporation, a Delaware corporation, an affiliate of Insignia
Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia"), a Delaware corporation, all of the issued
and outstanding common stock of NPI, for an aggregate purchase price of
$1,000,000. NPI is the sole shareholder of NPI Equity II, the general partner of
FRI, and the entity which controls the Managing General Partner. The closing of
the transactions contemplated by the above mentioned agreement (the "Closing")
occurred on January 19, 1996.
Upon the Closing, the officers and directors of NPI, NPI Equity II and the
Managing General Partner resigned and IFGP Corporation caused new officers and
directors of each of those entities to be elected. See "Item 10, Directors and
Executive Officers of the Registrant."
Competition
The Registrant is affected by and subject to the general competitive
conditions of the residential, commercial and office real estate industries. In
addition, each of the Registrant's properties competes in an area which normally
contains numerous other properties which may be considered competitive.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Registrant is
a party or to which any of its assets are subject, except the following:
Adrian Charles Pasteri, on his own behalf and for all others similarly
situated vs. Century Properties Fund XX et al., California Superior Court for
County of San Diego, Case No. 673150.
In January 1994, an investor in the Registrant filed a class action lawsuit
for monetary damages in the Superior Court for the County of San Diego,
California against, among others, the Registrant, Fox Partners III and the
general partners of Fox Partners III. The lawsuit alleges that the Prospectus
contained material misrepresentations and omissions. In April 1994, the Court
granted defendants' motion to have the venue of the case transferred from San
Diego County to San Francisco County. In July, the San Francisco County Court
granted defendants' motion to dismiss for failure to state a timely claim. The
San Francisco Court did, however, grant plaintiff leave to file an amended
complaint. On January 20, 1995, the San Francisco Court again sustained
defendants' demurrer and again granted plaintiff leave to amend its complaint.
On June 21, 1995, the demurrer previously granted by the Court was
overruled. The Registrant has filed its answer in the case and intends to
vigorously defend this action. The ultimate outcome of the litigation cannot
presently be determined, however, the Managing General Partner does not believe
that the litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Registrant.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the period
covered by this Report.
PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Equity and Related Security
Holder Matters.
The Individual Investor Unit holders are entitled to certain distributions
as provided in the Partnership Agreement. For each unit holder, cash
distributions from operations through December 31, 1995 have ranged from $127 to
$162 for each $500 original investment. Interest payments to the Pension Note
Holders through December 31, 1995 have been approximately $198 to $233 for each
$500 original investment. Additionally Pension Note Holders have received a $182
return of principal for each original $500 note. No market for Individual
Investor Units or Pension Investor Notes exists, nor is any expected to develop.
No distributions from operations were made during the years ended December
31, 1995 and 1994. See "Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for a discussion of the
Registrant's financial ability to make distributions.
As of March 1, 1996, the approximate number of holders of Individual
Investor Units and Pension Investor Notes was as follows 1,942 and 11,230,
respectively.
Item 6. Selected Financial Data.
The following represents selected financial data for the Registrant for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992 and 1991. The data should be

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Registrant's real estate properties consist of three office buildings
located in North Carolina, Virginia, and Kansas, two business parks located in
Texas and North Carolina and two apartment complexes located in Florida and
South Carolina. The properties are leased to tenants subject to leases with
original lease terms ranging from six months to one year for the residential
properties and with remaining lease terms of up to six years for the commercial
properties. The Registrant receives rental income from its properties and is
responsible for operating expenses, administrative expenses, capital
improvements and debt service payments. All seven of the Registrant's properties
generated positive cash flow from operations during the year ended December 31,
1995.
The Registrant uses working capital reserves from any undistributed cash
flow from operations and proceeds from cash investments as its primary sources
of liquidity. For the long term, cash from operations will remain the
Registrant's primary source of liquidity. Excess cash from operations was not
distributed for the year ended December 31, 1995. Cash generated from operations
will continue to be used to make the required payments to the Promissory Note
Holders and for working capital reserves. It is not currently anticipated that
the Registrant will make any distributions from operations in the near future.
Liquidity based on cash and cash equivalents improved by $1,020,000 at
December 31, 1995, as compared to 1994. The Registrant's $1,749,000 of net cash
provided by operating activities was only partially offset by $703,000 of cash
used for improvements to real estate (investing activities) and $26,000 of cash
distributions to the general partner (financing activities). The Registrant has
no plans for major capital improvements. All other increases (decreases) in
certain assets and liabilities are the result of the timing of the receipt and
payment of various operating activities.
Working capital reserves are being invested in a money market account or
repurchase agreements secured by United States Treasury obligations. The
Managing General Partner believes that, if market conditions remain relatively
stable, cash flow from operations, when combined with working capital reserves,
will be sufficient to fund capital improvements and required interest payments
to the Promissory Note Holders until November 30, 1998, the maturity date of the
notes. At that time the Registrant will have to extend the due dates of these
notes, find replacement financing, or sell properties. Rental revenue from one
tenant at the Registrant's Linpro Park I property, represents approximately 13%
of the Registrant's rental revenue in 1995. The tenant's leases are scheduled to
expire in November 1996 and January 1997. The Registrant is currently
negotiating an extension of these leases.
With respect to Limited Partners, it appears that the original investment
objective of capital growth from inception of the Registrant will not be
attained and that investors will not receive a return of all their invested
capital. The extent to which invested capital is returned to investors is
dependent upon the success of the performance of the Registrant's properties and
the markets in which such properties are located. It is anticipated that many of
the properties will continue to be held longer than originally expected. The
ability to hold and operate theses properties is dependent on the Registrant's
ability to obtain additional financing, refinancing, or debt restructuring as
required.
On January 19, 1996, the stockholders of NPI, the sole shareholder of NPI
Equity II, sold to IFGP Corporation all of the issued and outstanding stock of
NPI. IFGP Corporation caused new officers and directors of NPI Equity II and the
Managing General Partner to be elected. The Managing General Partner does not
believe these transactions will have a significant effect on the Registrant's
liquidity or results of operations. See "Item 1 Business-Change in Control".
Real Estate Market
The business in which the Registrant is engaged is highly competitive, and
the Registrant is not a significant factor in its industry. Each investment
property is located in or near a major urban area and, accordingly, competes for
rentals not only with similar properties in its immediate area but with hundreds
of similar properties throughout the urban area. Such competition is primarily
on the basis of location, rents, services and amenities. In addition, the
Registrant competes with significant numbers of individuals and organizations
(including similar partnerships, real estate investment trusts and financial
institutions) with respect to the sale of improved real properties, primarily on
the basis of the prices and terms of such transactions.
Results of Operations
1995 Compared to 1994
Net loss decreased by $766,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995, as
compared to 1994, due to an increase in revenues of $856,000 and an increase in
expenses of $90,000.
Revenues increased by $856,000 due to increases in rental income of
$659,000 and interest and other income of $197,000. Rental revenues increased
due to an increase in rental rates at all of the Registrant's properties and an
increase in occupancy at the Registrant's Highland Park Commerce Center,
Crabtree Office Center and Metcalf 103 Office Park properties, which was
partially offset by a decrease in occupancy at the Registrant's Commonwealth
Centre. Occupancy remained relatively constant at the Registrant's remaining
properties. Interest and other income increased due to an increase in average
working capital reserves available for investment, coupled with an increase in
interest rates and the receipt of lease termination fees in 1995.
Expenses increased by $90,000 due to an increase in operating expenses of
$176,000 which was partially offset by decreases in interest expense of $50,000,
general and administrative expenses of $21,000 and depreciation expense of
$15,000. Operating expenses increased primarily due to increased repairs and
maintenance costs at the Registrant's Commonwealth Centre, Metcalf 103 Office
Park and Harbor Club Downs properties. Interest expense declined due to the
satisfaction of the note payable encumbering the Corners Apartments property in
June 1994. General and administrative expenses declined due to a decrease in
asset management costs effective July 1, 1994. All other expenses remained
relatively constant.
1994 Compared to 1993
Net loss increased by $26,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994, as
compared to 1993, as a $38,000 decrease in expenses was more than offset by the
$64,000 decrease in revenues.
Revenues decreased by $64,000 as the increase in rental revenues of $65,000
was more than offset by the $129,000 decrease in interest and other income.
Interest and other income declined due to a legal settlement related to the
Corners Apartments property received during the year ended December 31, 1993,
coupled with a decline in average working capital reserves available for
investment in 1994. The increase in rental revenues resulted from increased
occupancy and rental rates at the Registrant's Harbor Club Downs, Corners
Apartments and Metcalf 103 Office Park properties, which were only partially
offset by an increase in vacancy at the Registrant's Commonwealth Centre
property.
Expenses decreased by $38,000 due to decreases in interest to Promissory
Note holders of $137,000, amortization expense of $198,000, depreciation of
$58,000 and interest expense of $42,000, which were partially offset by
increases in operating expenses of $201,000 and general and administrative
expenses of $196,000. The decline in interest to Promissory Note holders and the
related decline in amortization expense of deferred sales commissions and
organization expenses resulted from the partial principal repayment on the
Promissory Notes in May 1993. Interest expense declined due to the satisfaction
of the note payable encumbering the Corners Apartments property in June 1994.
Operating expenses increased primarily due to increased repairs and maintenance
and rent-up costs at the Registrant's Harbor Club Downs property. General and
administrative expenses increased due to costs associated with the management
transition and fees incurred in connection with the legal proceedings (see "Item
8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 8"). Depreciation expense
remained relatively constant.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
Century Properties Fund XX (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership
organized in 1983 under the laws of the State of California to acquire,
manage and ultimately sell income-producing real properties, and invest
in, service and ultimately collect or dispose of mortgage loans on
income-producing real properties. The Partnership currently owns three
office buildings located in North Carolina, Virginia and Kansas, two
business parks located in Texas and North Carolina, and two apartment
complexes located in Florida and South Carolina. The general partner of
the Partnership is Fox Partners III, a California general partnership
whose general partners are Fox Capital Management Corporation ("FCMC"), a
California corporation, Fox Realty Investors ("FRI"), a California
general partnership, and Fox Partners 84, a California general
partnership. The capital contributions of $30,907,000 ($500 per unit)
were made by Individual Investor Unit holders.
On December 6, 1993, the shareholders of FCMC entered into a Voting Trust
Agreement with NPI Equity Investments II, Inc. ("NPI Equity" or the
"Managing General Partner") pursuant to which NPI Equity was granted the
right to vote 100 percent of the outstanding stock of FCMC and NPI Equity
became the managing general partner of FRI. As a result, NPI Equity
became responsible for the operation and management of the business and
affairs of the Partnership and the other investment partnerships
originally sponsored by FCMC and/or FRI. NPI Equity is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of National Property Investors, Inc. ("NPI, Inc."). The
shareholders of FCMC and the partners in FRI retain indirect economic
interests in the Partnership and such other investment limited
partnerships, but have ceased to be responsible for the operation and
management of the Partnership and such other partnerships.
On January 19, 1996, the stockholders of NPI, Inc. sold all of the issued
and outstanding stock of NPI, Inc. to an affiliate of Insignia Financial
Group, Inc. ("Insignia") (see Note 10).
Distributions
Cash distributions to limited partners have been suspended since 1990.
Cash generated from operations will continue to be used to make the
required payments to the Promissory Note Holders and for working capital
reserves.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995, 1994 AND 1993
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In 1995, the Partnership implemented Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments," as amended by SFAS No. 119, "Disclosures about Derivative
Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments," which
requires disclosure of fair value information about financial
instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it
is practicable to estimate fair value. Fair value is defined in the SFAS
as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current
transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or
liquidation sale. The Partnership believes that the carrying amount of
its financial instruments (except for long term debt) approximates fair
value due to the short term maturity of these instruments. The fair value
of the Partnership's long term debt, after discounting the scheduled loan
payments to maturity, approximates its carrying balance.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash
equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Partnership maintains cash balances at institutions insured up to
$100,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Balances in excess
of $100,000 are usually invested in money market accounts and repurchase
agreements, which are collateralized by United States Treasury
obligations. Cash balances exceeded these insured levels during the year.
At December 31, 1995, the Partnership had approximately $1,900,000
invested in overnight repurchase agreements, secured by United States
Treasury obligations, which are included in cash and cash equivalents.
Real Estate
Real estate is stated at cost. Acquisition fees are capitalized as a cost
of real estate. In 1995, the Partnership adopted SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lives
Assets to be Disposed Of", which requires impairment losses to be
recognized for long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of
impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient
to recover the asset's carrying amount. The impairment loss is measured
by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. The
adoption of the SFAS had no effect on the Partnership's financial
statements.
Depreciation
Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated
useful lives ranging from 27.5 to 39 years for buildings and improvements
and six to seven years for furnishings.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Deferred Sales Commissions and Organization Expenses
Sales commissions and organization expenses related to the Pension
Investor Notes ("Non-Recourse Promissory Notes", "Promissory Notes" or
"Notes") are deferred and amortized by the straight-line method over the
life of the Notes. As principal payments are made, a proportionate amount
of the remaining deferred costs are expensed. At December 31, 1995 and
1994, accumulated amortization of deferred sales commissions and
organization expenses totaled $5,710,000 and $5,385,000, respectively.
Deferred Leasing Commissions
Leasing commissions are deferred and amortized over the lives of the
related leases. Such amortization is charged to operating expense. At
December 31, 1995 and 1994, accumulated amortization of deferred leasing
commissions totaled $570,000 and $485,000, respectively.
Net Loss Per Individual Investor Unit
The net loss per individual investor unit is computed by dividing the
net loss allocated to the unit holders by 61,814 units outstanding.
Income Taxes
Taxable income or loss of the Partnership is reported in the income tax
returns of its partners. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is
made in the financial statements of the Partnership.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNER AND AFFILIATES
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership may be
charged by the general partner and affiliates for services provided to
the Partnership. From March 1988 to December 1992, such amounts were
assigned pursuant to a services agreement by the general partner and
affiliates to Metric Realty Services, L.P. ("MRS"), which performed
partnership management and other services for the Partnership.
On January 1, 1993, Metric Management, Inc. ("MMI") successor to MRS, a
company which is not affiliated with the general partner, commenced
providing certain property and portfolio management services to the
Partnership under a new services agreement. As provided in the new
services agreement effective January 1, 1993, no reimbursements were made
to the general partner and affiliates after December 31, 1992. Subsequent
to December 31, 1992, reimbursements were made to MMI. On December 16,
1993, the services agreement with MMI was modified and, as a result
thereof, the Managing

2. TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNER AND AFFILIATES (Continued)
General Partner began directly providing cash management and other
Partnership services on various dates commencing December 23, 1993. On
March 1, 1994, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner commenced
providing certain property management services (see Notes 1 and 10). In
accordance with the partnership agreement, the general partner is
entitled to receive a partnership management fee in an amount equal to 10
percent of cash available for distribution. Related party expenses for
the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 were as follows:
1995 1994 1993
---------- ---------- ----------
Partnership management fees $ 72,000 $ 72,000 $ 82,000

---------- ---------- ----------
Total $ 389,000 $ 314,000 $ 82,000
========== ========== ==========
Property management fees and real estate tax reduction fees are included
in operating expenses. Partnership management fees and reimbursed
expenses are primarily included in general and administrative expenses.
In addition, approximately $93,000 of insurance premiums, which were paid
to an affiliate of NPI Inc., under a master insurance policy arranged by
such affiliate, are included in operating expenses for the year ended
December 31, 1995.
In accordance with the partnership agreement, the general partner was
allocated its two percent continuing interest in the Partnership's net
loss and taxable loss. The general partner received two percent of total
distributions including cash distributed to Promissory Note holders. In
addition, the general partner is entitled to a Partnership management
incentive distribution, which together with the Partnership management
fee cannot exceed ten percent of cash available for distribution, as
defined. No incentive distributions were made in 1995, 1994 and 1993.

$6,296,000, consisting of $3,111,000 on Linpro Park I and $3,185,000 on
Commonwealth Centre. Due to the current real estate market it is
reasonably possible that the Partnership's estimate of fair value will
change within the next year.

5. NON-RECOURSE PROMISSORY NOTES
The Non-Recourse Promissory Notes are secured by a deed of trust on all
properties owned by the Partnership. The Notes bear interest at eight
percent per annum except that interest of up to four percent may be
deferred, provided the Partnership makes interest payments on the unpaid
principal balance of at least four percent per annum. The deferred
interest does not bear interest. The Notes are due November 30, 1998.
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement and the Trust Indenture,
upon the sale, repayment or other disposition of any Partnership
properties or Partnership mortgage loans, 98 percent of the resulting
cash proceeds are first allocated to the payment of Promissory Notes
until such Notes are repaid. Note holders are also entitled to the
payment of residual interest after specified payments to the general
partner and Individual Unit holders as set forth in the Trust
Indenture.
6. SIGNIFICANT TENANT AND MINIMUM FUTURE RENTAL REVENUES
Rental revenue from one tenant at Linpro Park I was 13 percent, 17
percent and 12 percent of total Partnership rental revenue in 1995, 1994
and 1993, respectively. The tenant's leases are scheduled to expire in
November 1996 and January 1997. The Partnership is currently negotiating
an extension of these leases.
Minimum future rental revenues from operating leases having
non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year at December 31, 1995,
are as follows:
1996 $ 3,788,000
1997 2,372,000

7. CONTINGENCY
On January 24, 1990, a settlement agreement was executed by and between
the Partnership and certain defendants in connection with legal
proceedings at Commonwealth Centre. Lincoln Property Company ("Lincoln"),
one of the defendants, provided the Partnership with a deficiency
certificate totaling $1,250,000 pursuant to Lincoln's company wide debt
restructuring plan. Effective December 31, 1994, the obligors under this
collateral pool agreement exercised their right to extend the maturity
date of the deficiency certificates to December 31, 1997. It is
anticipated that any payments made to the Partnership on account of its
$1,250,000 face amount deficiency certificate will not be made, if at
all, until such time. The amount the Partnership will ultimately receive
under the certificate, which is subject to contingencies, is uncertain.
Accordingly, the certificate will be recorded in the financial statements
when payment is received.
8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Adrian Charles Pastori, on his own behalf and for all others similarly
situated vs. Century Properties Fund XX et al., California Superior
Court for County of San Diego, Case No. 673150.
In January 1994, an investor in the Partnership filed a class action
lawsuit for monetary damages in Superior Court of the County of San
Diego, California against the Partnership, its general partner, Fox
Partners III, the general partners of Fox Partners III, and others. The
lawsuit alleges that the prospectus for the Partnership contained
material misrepresentations and omissions. In April 1994, the Court
granted defendants' motion to have the venue of the case transferred from
San Diego County to San Francisco County. In July, the Court granted the
defendants' motion to dismiss for failure to state a timely claim. The
Court did, however, grant plaintiff leave to file an amended complaint.
On January 20, 1995, the Court sustained the Partnership's motion that
the plaintiff's case did not set forth the cause of action upon which
relief could be granted and again granted the plaintiff leave to file an
amended complaint. On June 21, 1995, the demurrer previously granted by
the Court was overruled. The Partnership has filed its answer in the case
and intends to vigorously defend this action. The ultimate outcome of the
litigation cannot presently be determined, however, the Managing General
Partner does not believe that the litigation will have a material adverse
effect on the Partnership.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting
and Financial Disclosures.
Effective April 22, 1994, the Registrant dismissed its prior Independent
Auditors, Deloitte & Touche, LLP ("Deloitte") and retained as its new
Independent Auditors, Imowitz Koenig & Company, LLP. Deloitte's Independent
Auditors' Report on the Registrant's financial statements for the calendar year
ended December 31, 1993, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of
opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to audit scope or accounting
principles. However, Deloitte's Independent Auditors' Report for the calendar
year ended December 31, 1993 was modified to emphasize that the Registrant is a
defendant in litigation alleging that the Registrant's prospectus contained
material misrepresentations and omissions; the financial statements did not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The decision to change Independent Auditors was approved by the Managing General
Partner's Directors. During the calendar year ended 1993 and through April 22,
1994, there were no disagreements between the Registrant and Deloitte on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope of procedure which disagreements if not resolved to the
satisfaction of Deloitte, would have caused it to make reference to the subject
matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports.
Effective April 22, 1994, the Registrant engaged Imowitz Koenig & Company,
LLP as its Independent Auditors. The Registrant did not consult Imowitz Koenig &
Company, LLP regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item
304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K prior to April 22, 1994.
PART III
Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant.
Neither the the Registrant nor Fox Partners III ("Fox"), the general
partner of the Registrant, has any officers or directors. Fox Capital Management
Corporation (the "Managing General Partner'), the managing general partner of
Fox, manages and controls substantially all of the Registrant's affairs and has
general responsibility and ultimate authority in all matters affecting its
business. NPI Equity Investments II, Inc., which controls the Managing General
Partner, is a wholly-owned affiliate of National Property Investors, Inc., which
in turn is owned by an affiliate of Insignia (See "Item 1, Business - Change in
Control"). Insignia is a full service real estate service organization
performing property management, commercial and retail leasing, investor
services, partnership administration, mortgage banking, and real estate
investment banking services for various entities. Insignia commenced operations
in December 1990 and is the largest manager of multifamily residential
properties in the United States and is a significant manager of commercial
property. It currently provides property and/or asset management services for
over 2,000 properties. Insignia's properties consist of approximately 300,000
units of multifamily residential housing and approximately 64 million square
feet of commercial space.

officers or directors. (See "Item 13, Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions.")
Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and
Management.
The the Registrant is a limited partnership and has no officers or
directors. The Managing General Partner, as managing general partner of Fox, has
discretionary control over most of the decisions made by or for the Registrant
in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. The directors and
officers of the Managing General Partner and its affiliates, as a group do not
own any of the Registrant's voting securities.
There is no person known to the Registrant who owns beneficially or of
record more than five percent of the voting securities of the Registrant.
There are no arrangements known to the Registrant, the operation of which
may, at a subsequent date, result in a change in control of the Registrant.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
In accordance with the Registrant's partnership agreement, the Registrant
may be charged by the general partner and affiliates for services provided to
the Registrant. On January 1, 1993, Metric Management, Inc. ("MMI"),
a company which is not affiliated with the general partner, commenced
providing certain property and portfolio management services to the Registrant
under a new services agreement. As provided in the new services agreement
effective January 1, 1993, no reimbursements were made to the general partner
and affiliates after December 31, 1992. Subsequent to December 31, 1992,
reimbursements were made to MMI. On December 16, 1993, the services agreement
with MMI was modified and, as a result thereof, the Managing General Partner
began directly providing cash management and other Partnership services on
various dates commencing December 23, 1993. On March 1, 1994, an affiliate of
the Managing General Partner commenced providing certain property management
services. In accordance with the partnership agreement, the general partner is
entitled to receive a partnership management fee in an amount equal to 10
percent of cash available for distribution. Related party expenses for the years

Professional services - 1,000 -
--------- ---------- ---------
Total $ 389,000 $ 314,000 $ 82,000
========= ========= =========

operating expenses. Partnership management fees and reimbursed expenses are
primarily included in general and administrative expenses. In addition,
approximately $93,000 of insurance premiums, which were paid to an affiliate of
NPI, under a master insurance policy arranged by such affiliate, are included in
operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 1995.
