ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
North Hill Apartments
In 1985, North Hill Apartments, DeKalb County, Georgia, was acquired by a
limited partnership (the "Joint Venture") the general partner of which was a
joint venture between the Partnership and an affiliate. The limited partner of
the Joint Venture was an affiliate of the seller. The Partnership contributed
approximately $1,924,000 and the affiliate contributed approximately $5,772,000
from their respective offering proceeds towards the purchase of the property.
The property was purchased subject to $18,700,000 of first mortgage financing.
In 1986, the unaffiliated limited partner assigned its interest in the Joint
Venture to the Partnership and the Partnership's affiliate, which hold
interests of 25% and 75%, respectively, in the Joint Venture. In 1994, the
Joint Venture repaid the first mortgage loan with proceeds from a new first
mortgage loan of $16,795,600, proceeds of a $1,350,000 note (the "Note"), from
two unaffiliated parties, and Joint Venture cash reserves. The Note is
non-interest bearing and will be repaid only to the extent that the net
proceeds from the sale of the property exceed a certain predetermined level.
The Partnership contracted to sell the property to an unaffiliated party, EEA
Development, Inc., a Delaware corporation, on February 21, 1997 for a sale
price of $22,750,000. On February 27, 1997, the purchaser exercised its option
to terminate the agreement of sale. On March 4, 1997, the agreement of sale
was reinstated.
The purchaser has deposited $150,000 into an escrow account as earnest money
and is obligated to deposit an additional $150,000 on or before March 13, 1997.
The purchaser will assume the existing first mortgage loan which is expected to
have an outstanding principal balance of approximately $16,552,000 at closing,
scheduled to occur on March 27, 1997. If certain conditions described in the
agreement of sale relating to the assumption of the loan and the additional
financing of the property by the purchaser have not been satisfied on or before
March 20, 1997, the Joint Venture and the purchaser each have the right to
extend the date by which such obligations must be met to April 21, 1997, in
which event the closing will be held five days after the obligations are
satisfied.
The remaining portion of the sale price will be payable in cash at closing.
From the proceeds of the sale, the Joint Venture will pay $227,500 to an
unaffiliated party as a brokerage commission. No portion of the sale proceeds
will be utilized towards the repayment of the Note, and the Note will be
forgiven. The Joint Venture will receive the remaining proceeds of
approximately $5,971,000, of which the Partnership's share will be
approximately $1,493,000, less the Partnership's share of closing costs.
Neither the General Partner nor any affiliate will receive a brokerage
commission in connection with the sale of the property. The General Partner
will be reimbursed by the Joint Venture for actual expenses incurred in
connection with the sale.
An affiliate of the General Partner sold one property to the purchaser in 1996.
The closing is subject to the satisfaction of numerous terms and conditions.
There can be no assurance that all of the terms and conditions will be complied
with and, therefore, it is possible the sale of the property may not occur.

ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
Templeton Park Apartments
As previously reported, on August 26, 1996, the Partnership contracted to sell
the Templeton Park Apartments, Colorado Springs, Colorado, to an unaffiliated
party, Griffis/Blessing, Inc., a Colorado corporation. The closing of the sale
was extended from December 18, 1996 and the sale closed on February 19, 1997.
The sale price was $23,300,000. From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership
repaid the outstanding balance of the first mortgage loan of $11,458,759,
paid closing costs of $43,749, paid $233,000 as a brokerage commission to an
unaffiliated party, and paid $1,025,000 in contingent interest to the holder
of the first mortgage loan. In addition, an affiliate of the third party
providing property management services for the property received a fee of
$174,750 for services rendered in connection with the sale of the property.
The Partnership received the remaining proceeds of approximately $10,364,742.

party shall pay for its respective attorney's fees.
5. CONDITION OF TITLE.
5.1. If, prior to "Closing" (as hereinafter defined), a date-down to the
Title Commitment or the update of the Survey discloses any new Unpermitted
Exception, Seller shall have thirty (30) days from the date of the date-down to
the Title Commitment or the update of the Survey, as applicable, at Seller's
expense, to (i) bond over, cure and/or have any Unpermitted Exceptions which in
the aggregate, do not exceed $25,000.00, removed from the Title Commitment or
to have the Title Insurer commit to insure against loss or damage that may be
occasioned by such Unpermitted Exceptions, or (ii) have the right, but not the
obligation, to bond over, cure and/or have any Unpermitted Exceptions which, in
the aggregate, equal or exceed $25,000.00, removed from the Title Commitment or
to have the Title Insurer commit to insure against loss or damage that may be
<PAGE>
occasioned by such Unpermitted Exceptions. In such event, the time of Closing
shall be delayed, if necessary, to give effect to said aforementioned time
periods. If Seller fails to cure or have said Unpermitted Exception removed or
have the Title Insurer commit to insure as specified in (i) in the preceding
sentence above within said thirty (30) day period or if Seller elects not to
exercise its rights under (ii) in the preceding sentence and notifies purchaser
of same, Purchaser may either (x) proceed to Closing and receive a credit of up
to $25,000.00 against the Purchase Price or (y) terminate this Agreement upon
notice to Seller within ten (10) days after receipt of notice from Seller
stating its election not to cure said Unpermitted Exception or, if notice is
not delivered, the expiration of said thirty (30) day period; provided,
however, and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the
Unpermitted Exception which gives rise to Purchasers right to terminate was
recorded against the Property as a result of the affirmative, willful action of
Seller (and not by any unrelated third party) with intention to prevent the
sale of the Property in accordance with the terms hereof, then Purchaser shall
have the additional rights contained in Paragraph 11 herein. Absent notice
from Purchaser to Seller in accordance with the preceding sentence, Purchaser
shall be deemed to have elected to take title subject to said Unpermitted
Exception. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement in accordance with the terms
of this Paragraph 5.1, this Agreement shall become null and void without
further action of the parties and all Earnest Money theretofore deposited into
the escrow by Purchaser together with any interest accrued thereon, shall be
returned to Purchaser, and neither party shall have any further liability to
the other, except for Purchaser's obligation to indemnify Seller and restore
the Property, as more fully set forth in Paragraph 7.
5.2. Seller agrees to convey fee simple title to the Property to
Purchaser by limited warranty deed (the "Deed") in recordable form subject only
to the Permitted Exceptions and any Unpermitted Exceptions waived by Purchaser.
6. CONDEMNATION, EMINENT DOMAIN, DAMAGE AND CASUALTY.
6.1. Except as provided in the indemnity provisions contained in
Paragraph 7.1 of this Agreement, Seller shall bear all risk of loss with
respect to the Property up to the earlier of the dates upon which either
possession or title is transferred to Purchaser in accordance with this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of damage to the
Property by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing Date, repair of which
would cost less than or equal to $100,000.00 (as determined by Seller in good
faith) Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate its obligations under
this Agreement by reason thereof, but Seller shall have the right to elect to
either repair and restore the Property (in which case the Closing Date shall be
extended until completion of such restoration) or to assign and transfer to
Purchaser on the Closing Date all of Seller's right, title and interest in and
to all insurance proceeds paid or payable to Seller on account of such fire or
casualty, together with a credit for any deductible applicable to the claim
relating to such insurance proceeds. Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in
writing of any such fire or other casualty and Seller's determination of the
cost to repair the damage caused thereby. In the event of damage to the
Property by fire or other casualty prior to the Closing Date, repair of which
<PAGE>
would cost in excess of $100,000.00 (as determined by Seller in good faith
based on initial estimates of repair from one or more independent contractors),
then this Agreement may be terminated at the option of Purchaser, which option
shall be exercised, if at all, by Purchaser's written notice thereof to Seller
within ten (10) business days after Purchaser receives written notice of such
fire or other casualty and Seller's determination of the amount of such
damages, and upon the exercise of such option by Purchaser this Agreement shall
become null and void, the Earnest Money deposited by Purchaser shall be
returned to Purchaser together with interest thereon, and neither party shall
have any further liability or obligations hereunder. In the event that
Purchaser does not exercise the option set forth in the preceding sentence, the
Closing shall take place on the Closing Date and Seller shall assign and
transfer to Purchaser on the Closing Date all of Seller's right, title and
interest in and to all insurance proceeds paid or payable to Seller on account
of the fire or casualty, together with a credit for any deductible applicable
to the claim relating to such insurance proceeds.
6.2. If between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, any
condemnation or eminent domain proceedings are initiated which might result in
the taking of any part of the Property or the taking or closing of any right of
access to the Property, Seller shall immediately notify Purchaser of such
occurrence. In the event that the taking of any part of the Property shall:
(i) materially impair access to the Property; (ii) cause any material
non-compliance with any applicable law, ordinance, rule or regulation of any
federal, state or local authority or governmental agencies having jurisdiction
over the Property or any portion thereof; or (iii) materially and adversely
impair the use of the Property as it is currently being operated (hereinafter
collectively referred to as a "Material Event"), Purchaser may:
6.2.1. terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, in
which event the Earnest Money deposited by Purchaser, together with interest
thereon, shall be returned to Purchaser and all rights and obligations of the
parties hereunder with respect to the closing of this transaction will cease;
or
6.2.2. proceed with the Closing, in which event Seller shall assign
to Purchaser all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to any award made
in connection with such condemnation or eminent domain proceedings.
6.3. Purchaser shall then notify Seller, within ten (10) business days
after Purchaser's receipt of Seller's notice, whether Purchaser elects to
exercise its rights under Paragraph 6.2.1 or Paragraph 6.2.2. Closing shall be
delayed, if necessary, until Purchaser makes such election. If Purchaser fails
to make an election within such ten (10) business day period, Purchaser shall
be deemed to have elected to exercise its rights under Paragraph 6.2.2. If
between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, any condemnation or
eminent domain proceedings are initiated which do not constitute a Material
Event, Purchaser shall be required to proceed with the Closing, in which event
Seller shall assign to Purchaser all of Seller's right, title and interest in
and to any award made in connection with such condemnation or eminent domain
proceedings.

costs and costs of appeal) suffered or incurred by Seller or Affiliates of
Seller for injury to persons or property caused by Purchaser's investigations
and inspection of the Property. Purchaser shall undertake its obligation to
defend set forth in the preceding sentence using attorneys selected by Seller,

performing such tests, studies and investigations and listing Seller and
Purchaser as additional insureds thereunder.

investigations performed or information received pursuant to this Paragraph
7.1, Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving
written notice of such termination to Seller at any time prior to the
expiration of the Inspection Period. If written notice is not received by
Seller pursuant to this Paragraph 7.1 prior to the expiration of the Inspection
Period, then the right of Purchaser to terminate this Agreement pursuant to
this Paragraph 7.1 shall be waived. If Purchaser terminates this Agreement by
written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Inspection Period: (i)
Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller copies of all studies, reports and
other investigations obtained by Purchaser in connection with its due diligence
during the Inspection Period; and (ii) the Earnest Money deposited by Purchaser
shall be immediately paid to Purchaser, together with any interest earned
thereon, less $100 which shall be paid to Seller as further consideration for
the Inspection Period, and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall have any right,
<PAGE>
obligation or liability under this Agreement, except for Purchaser's obligation
to indemnify Seller and restore the Property, as more fully set forth in this
Paragraph 7.1. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
terms of this Paragraph 7.1, shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the
Deed and termination of this Agreement.

hereunder by Purchaser and subject to the provisions of Paragraph 10 hereof.

in this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Seller. Any
assignment or transfer of, or attempt to assign or transfer, Purchaser's
interest in this Agreement shall be an act of default hereunder by Purchaser

SECOND AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT
OF SALE AND ESCROW AGREEMENT
This Second Amendment ("Second Amendment") to Agreement of Sale and Escrow
Agreement is entered into as of January 3, 1997, by and between TEMPLETON
APARTMENTS, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, as Purchaser, and
TEMPLETON INVESTORS, an Illinois Limited Partnership, as Seller.
RECITALS
A. Griffis/Blessing, Inc. and Seller hereto have entered into an
Agreement of Sale ("Agreement") and an Escrow Agreement, both dated as of
August 26, 1996 for the purchase and sale of the apartment project known as
Templeton Place Apartments as subsequently assigned to Purchaser. The Agreement
and the Escrow Agreement were amended by the First Amendment to Agreement of
Sale and Escrow Agreement dated as of November 1, 1996 ("First Amendment") and
by letter agreements dated November 21, 1996, December 6, 1996, December 11,
1996, December 13, 1996 and December 20, 1996. The First Amendment and letter
agreements are collectively referred to as "Amendments".
B. Purchaser and Seller now wish to further amend the Agreement and the
Escrow Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree that the Agreement and the Escrow
Agreement are amended as follows:
1. a. Paragraph 8 of the Agreement is modified to provide that the
Closing Date shall be January 27, 1997.
b. Purchaser shall have the right to extend the Closing Date to
February 27, 1997 ("Final Extended Closing Date"), upon notice delivered to
Seller and Escrow Agent no later than January 20, 1997. The notice shall be
accompanied by federally wired funds or a cashier's or unendorsed certified
check in the sum of $50,000.00 as additional Earnest Money to be deposited with
and held by Escrow Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow
Agreement.
c. If Purchaser extends the Closing pursuant to subparagraph 1b
above, then all references to the Closing Date shall mean the Final Extended
Closing Date. Thereafter all references to Earnest Money shall mean the
Earnest Money deposited under the Agreement and the Amendments, and the
additional deposit pursuant to this paragraph of this Second Amendment.
d. Purchaser agrees that the provisions of this Second Amendment
supercede all of the dates relating to the Closing as set forth in the
Agreement and the Amendments, and Purchaser shall have no further extension
rights with reference to the Closing Date.
<PAGE>
2. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it has received its loan Commitment
and that all contingencies pursuant to the Agreement and the Amendments have
been fully satisfied.
3. The applicable provisions of the Escrow Agreement are hereby amended
to comply with the terms and provisions of this Second Amendment.
4. Except as modified herein, all other terms and conditions of the
Agreement and the Escrow Agreement (as amended) shall remain in full force and
effect and are hereby ratified and reaffirmed.
5. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meaning as in
the Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and the Amendments.
6. This Second Amendment may be executed in multiple facsimile
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have put their hand and seal as of
the date set forth above.
