Notes to the Financial Statements
The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the Partnership's annual 1996 audited financial
statements within Form 10-K.
The unaudited financial statements include all normal and
reoccurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to present a fair statement of financial
position as of September 30, 1997 and the results of operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
and the statement of partners' capital for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997. Results of operations for the
period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.
Reclassification. Certain prior year amounts have been
reclassified in order to conform to the current year's
presentation.
The following significant event has occurred subsequent to
fiscal year 1996, which requires disclosure in this interim
report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01, Paragraph (a)(5).
On October 9, 1997, the Partnership completed the sale of
Atrium I at a price of approximately
$10 million and a net gain of approximately $3.4 million. As a
result of the sale the Partnership is expected to dissolve by
year-end 1997.
Part I, Item 2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On October 9, 1997 the Partnership completed the sale of Atrium
I for a price of approximately $10 million and a net gain of
approximately $3.4 million (the "Sale"). It is anticipated
that the proceeds from such Sale, and any cash available after
payment of the Partnership's remaining liabilities, will be
distributed to Limited Partners in December 1997. The
Partnership will be dissolved shortly thereafter.
Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, distributions to
individual unit holders upon a liquidation of the Partnership
will vary from distributions of proceeds from a sale or
refinancing of a property when the Partnership is not in
liquidation. Distributions from a sale or refinancing when the
Partnership is not in liquidation are generally distributed
equally to each Unit held by Limited Partners. In liquidation,
however, distributions are made in proportion to positive
capital account balances which vary depending upon whether a
Unit was originally issued to a taxable or a tax-exempt
investor. Accordingly, the amount of the special cash
distribution will vary depending upon whether a Unit was
originally issued to a taxable or a tax-exempt investor.
Additional information regarding the payment of this
distribution will be provided in future correspondence.
The Partnership had cash and cash equivalents totaling $36,840,
at September 30, 1997, largely unchanged from $38,638 at
December 31, 1996.
Accounts receivable totaled $0 at September 30, 1997, compared
to $20,583 at December 31, 1996. The decrease is attributable
to the timing of rental payments. Prepaid expenses totaled
$11,103 at September 30, 1997, compared to $7,293 at
December 31, 1996. The increase is primarily attributable to the
prepayment of insurance premiums for 1997.
Results of Operations
Operations resulted in net income of $91,186 for the three
months ended September 30, 1997, compared with a net loss of
$38,616 for the three months ended September 30, 1996.
Operations resulted in net income of $332,188 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997, compared to $963 for the
comparable period a year ago. The increases are primarily
attributable to depreciation not being recorded during the
first nine months of 1997 as a result of Atrium I being
reclassified as "Real estate held for sale."
Rental income totaled $253,535 and $891,790 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, compared
with $300,178 and $957,032, respectively, for the comparable
period in 1996. The decrease in 1997 is largely due to lower
average occupancy earlier in the year. Tenant expense
reimbursements totaled $16,324 and $38,794 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, compared
with $3,458 and $21,667 for the comparable periods in 1996.
The increases are primarily due to higher operating and
miscellaneous income in 1997.
Interest and other income totaled $1,027 and $17,689 for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively,
compared with $6,653 and $23,636 for the comparable periods in
1996. The decrease for the three- and nine-month periods is
mainly due to the Partnership's lower average cash balances in
1997.
Property operating expenses consist primarily of on-site
personnel expenses, utility costs, repair and maintenance
costs, property management fees, insurance and real estate
taxes. Property operating expenses totaled $161,532 and
$537,867 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997,
respectively, compared with $214,263 and $586,166 for the
comparable periods in 1996. The decreases are mainly due to
lower legal and appraisal fees and reduced utility expenses
associated with lower average occupancy at the property.
Depreciation and amortization expenses totaled $0 for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared with $108,070
and $326,840 for the corresponding periods in 1996.
Depreciation and amortization were not recorded during the
first nine months of 1997 as a result of the property being
reclassified as "Real estate held for sale."
Professional fees totaled $6,588 and $19,885 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared with $12,513 and
32,941 for the comparable periods in 1996. The decreases are
mainly due to lower costs for legal and appraisal services.
