(A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)
AND CONSOLIDATED VENTURE
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996
(UNAUDITED)
GENERAL
Readers of this quarterly report should refer to the Partnership's
audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996,
which are included in the Partnership's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K
(File No. 0-13545) dated on March 21, 1997, as certain footnote disclosures
which would substantially duplicate those contained in such audited
financial statements have been omitted from this report. Capitalized terms
used but not defined in this quarterly report, have the same meaning as the
Partnership's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP
requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported or disclosed amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
During the second quarter of 1997, Statements of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128 ("Earnings per Share") and No. 129 ("Disclosure of
Information about Capital Structure") were issued. As the Partnership's
capital structure only has general and limited partnership interests, the
Partnership does not expect any significant impact on its consolidated
financial statements upon adoption of these standards when required at the
end of 1997.
245 PARK
As a result of the 1996 restructuring, the Partnership owns (through a
limited liability company of which the Partnership is a 99% member) an
approximate 5.56% general partner interest in a newly formed partnership,
World Financial Properties,L.P. ("WFP, LP"). The managing general partner
of WFP, LP is an entity affiliated with certain O&Y creditors and the
proponents of the Plan governing the restructuring and, subject to the
partnership agreement of WFP, LP, has full authority to manage its affairs.
WFP, LP's principal assets are majority and controlling interests in six
office buildings.
In conjunction with the restructuring, the Partnership entered into
the JMB Transaction Agreement dated November 21, 1996, whereby the
Partnership is entitled to receive one third of the monthly management fees
earned at the 245 Park Avenue property through December 2001. Amounts
received may not be less than $400,000 or exceed $600,000 for any twelve
month period and may not be less than $2,300,000 over the term of the
agreement. For the six months ending June 30, 1997, the Partnership has
earned approximately $259,000 of management fees pursuant to their
agreement. As of the date of this report, all such amounts have been
received.
WFP, LP and the Partnership each have a substantial amount of
indebtedness remaining. If any of the buildings are sold, any proceeds
would be first applied to repayment of the mortgage and other indebtedness
of WFP, LP. In any event, any net proceeds obtained by the Partnership
would then be required to be used to satisfy notes payable to JMB Realty
Corporation ("JMB") (aggregating approximately $63,864,000 at June 30,
1997). Only after such applications would any remaining proceeds be
available to be distributed to the Holders. As a result, it is unlikely
<PAGE>
that the Holders ever will receive any significant portion of their
original investment. However, in the event of a sale or other disposition
of any of the properties (including a transfer to the lenders), or of the
Partnership's interest in WFP, LP, the Holders may be allocated substantial
gain for Federal income tax purposes without any corresponding proceeds
from such sale.
TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Partnership has notes payable and related deferred interest
payable to JMB, an affiliate of the General Partners.
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the Corporate General
Partner and its affiliates are entitled to receive reimbursement for direct
expenses and out-of-pocket expenses related to the administration of the
Partnership and operation of the Partnership's real property investment.
Additionally, the Corporate General Partner and its affiliates are entitled
to reimbursements for portfolio management, legal and accounting services.
The Partnership incurred approximately $5,050 and $3,533 for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, payable to an affiliate of the
Corporate General Partner for portfolio management, legal and accounting
services of which approximately $1,000 of such costs were unpaid as of June
30, 1997.
UNCONSOLIDATED VENTURE - SUMMARY INFORMATION
Summary income statement information for WFP, LP for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 and 245 Park for the six months ended June 30, 1996 is

ADJUSTMENTS
In the opinion of the Corporate General Partner, all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation (assuming the Partnership continues as a going concern) have
been made to the accompanying figures as of June 30, 1997 and for the three
and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Reference is made to the notes to the accompanying financial
statements for additional information concerning the Partnership's
investments.
The Partnership's liquidity and ability to continue as a going concern
is dependent upon additional advances from JMB as well as receipt of one-
third of the property management fees earned at the 245 Park Avenue
property.
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The increase in deferred interest payable to an affiliate as of June
30, 1997 as compared to December 31, 1996 is due to the interest accruals
on the term loans and the demand note payable to JMB.
Other income for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997
represents the Partnership's share of property management fees from the 245
Park Avenue property pursuant to the terms of the JMB Transaction
Agreement, including fees earned in May and June classified as Other
receivables at June 30, 1997.
The increase in interest expense for the three and six month period
ending June 30, 1997 compared to the same periods in 1996 is due to an
increase in the aggregate amounts outstanding on the Partnership's term
loans and demand note.
The decrease in professional fees for the three months ended June 30,
1997 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1996 and the related
increase in professional fees for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1996 is primarily attributable to
the timing of recognition of audit fees and increased services related to
the restructuring of the Partnership's interests in 245 Park.
The Partnership's share of income from operations of unconsolidated
venture for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 is due to the
restructuring of the Partnership's interest in 245 Park and refinancing of
the debt for certain of the properties owned by the WFP, LP. Pursuant to
the restructuring, the Partnership's 46.5% interest in 245 Park was
exchanged for an approximate 5.56% interest in WFP, LP which has a majority
and controlling interests in 245 Park Office Building and five other office
buildings.
