Part III - Narative
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K,
20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR or the transition report thereof
could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
The Partnership could not file Form 10-K within the prescribed time
period due to unusual circumstances. The Partnership is managed by an
association of five limited partnerships, four of which are in the
process of dissolving, and the fifth, the subject partnership, is
expected to dissolve in the near future. In addition, the subject
partnership is involved in litigation, (one of the reasons the
partnership has not yet dissolved) which has pulled already strained
resources away from preparation of Form 10-K.
