NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
----------------------------------------

1.     General
       -------

In the opinion of the Managing General Partner, the accompanying interim
financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash
flows for the interim periods presented.  These statements should be read
in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999.  Allocation of income and loss to Limited and General
Partners is based on cumulative income and loss.  Adjustments, if any, are
reflected in the current quarter balances.

2.     Financing of Partnership Operations
       -----------------------------------

The General Partners have made loans to the Partnership to finance its
recurring losses from on-going operations.  The Partnership has very
limited cash resources and primarily illiquid assets.  The General Partners
are under no obligation to continue the financing of the Partnership's
daily operations and may elect to discontinue such support at any time
during the remaining life of the Partnership.

3.     Fair Value of Investments
       -------------------------

The Partnership's investments are valued at fair value as determined in
good faith by the Managing General Partner in the absence of readily
available market quotations.  At this stage of the Partnership's life, the
holdings in the Partnership's portfolio are limited to troubled companies
for which any estimate of fair value is highly subjective.  The estimates
made by the Managing General Partner give consideration to each company's
current operating activities, underlying financial condition, prospects for
liquidation events, and other factors.  The estimated fair value of
$1,448,839 at June 30, 2000 may differ significantly from a value that
would have been used had the ultimate realization of the investments been
known.

In August 2000, the General Partners engaged an independent third party to
appraise the Partnership's three remaining portfolio companies.  It is
possible that the resulting appraised values will differ significantly from
the investment fair values reported in these financial statements.  Any
adjustments based on the independent third party appraisal will be recorded
in the period the appraisal is received.


4.     Related Party Transactions
       --------------------------

Related party costs are included in costs and expenses shown on the
Statements of Operations.  Related party costs for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999, were as follows:

<TABLE>
                                                 2000        1999
                                                ------      ------
<S>                                           <C>          <C>
Management fees                               $ 10,170      17,028
Reimbursable operating expenses                 76,407     151,712
</TABLE>

Certain reimbursable expenses have been allocated and accrued based upon
interim estimates prepared by the Managing General Partner and are adjusted
to actual costs periodically.  At June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, due
to related parties for such expenses were $476,686 and $343,094,
respectively.

At June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, management fees payable were
$41,503 and $31,333, respectively, and due to affiliated partnerships for
reparticipated secured notes receivable were $5,969.

5.     Secured Notes Receivable, Net
       -----------------------------

A complete listing of the Partnership's secured notes receivable at
December 31, 1999, is included in the 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
There was no investment activity from January 1 through June 30, 2000.

6.     Equity Investments
       ------------------

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
          and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

During the six months ended June 30, 2000, net cash provided by operating
activities totaled $379.  The Partnership received advances from the
Managing General Partners totaling $57,185 to fund its operations.  Other
operating expenses of $56,821 were paid and interest income of $15 was
received.

Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2000, were $8,240.  The General
Partners have made loans to the Partnership to finance its recurring losses
from on-going operations.  The Partnership has very limited cash resources
and primarily illiquid assets.  The General Partners are under no
obligation to continue financing the Partnership's daily operations and may
elect to discontinue such support at any time during the remaining life of
the Partnership.

The Partnership's investments are valued at fair value as determined in
good faith by the Managing General Partner in the absence of readily
available market quotations.  At this stage of the Partnership's life, the
holdings in the Partnership's portfolio are limited to troubled companies
for which any estimate of fair value is highly subjective.  The estimates
made by the Managing General Partner give consideration to each company's
current operating activities, underlying financial condition, prospects for
liquidation events, and other factors.  The estimated fair value of
$1,448,839 at June 30, 2000 may differ significantly from a value that
would have been used had the ultimate realization of the investments been
known.

In August 2000, the General Partners engaged an independent third party to
appraise the Partnership's three remaining portfolio companies.  It is
possible that the resulting appraised values will differ significantly from
the investment fair values reported in these financial statements.  Any
adjustments based on the independent third party appraisal will be recorded
in the period the appraisal is received.

Results of Operations
---------------------

    Current quarter compared to corresponding quarter in the preceding year
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Net losses were $62,275 and $141,453 for the quarters ended June 30, 2000
and 1999, respectively.  The decrease in net loss in the current period was
primarily due to a $75,876 decrease in total operating expenses.

Total operating expenses were $57,360 and $133,236 for the quarters ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The decrease is primarily
attributable to decreased investment monitoring activity and related
administrative costs.

Given the inherent risk associated with the business of the Partnership,
the future performance of the portfolio company investments may
significantly impact future operations.

    Current six months compared to corresponding six months in the
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    preceding year
    --------------

Net losses for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, were $126,971
and $257,595, respectively.  The decrease in net loss was primarily
attributable to a $124,425 decrease in operating expenses.

Total operating expenses were $116,816 and $241,241 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The decrease is primarily
attributable to decreased investment monitoring activity and related
administrative and professional costs.
