PART I
Item 1. Business. America First Tax Exempt Mortgage Fund Limited
Partnership (the "Registrant") was formed as a limited partnership on November
11, 1985 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act to acquire
a portfolio of federally tax-exempt participating first mortgage loans to
provide construction and/or permanent financing of multifamily residential
apartments. The Registrant's business objectives are to provide its investors
(i) safety and preservation of capital, (ii) regular distributions of
tax-exempt interest and (iii) potential for an enhanced tax-exempt yield as a
result of a participation interest in the net cash flow and net capital
appreciation of the real estate financed by the Registrant.
The Registrant registered a total of 15,000,000 BUCs representing
assignments of limited partnership interests with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and sold a total of 9,979,128 BUCs at $20 per BUC for a total net
capital contribution of $185,511,989 after the payment of certain organization
and offering costs.
The Registrant acquired 14 tax-exempt mortgage loans with an aggregate
principal amount equal to $177,196,000. At December 31, 1994, the Registrant
continued to hold seven of these mortgage loans with a carrying value, net of
allowance for loan losses, equal to $66,026,000.
The tax-exempt mortgage loans that the Registrant had acquired were
issued by various state and local housing authorities to provide for the
construction and/or permanent financing of 14 multifamily housing properties
located in 10 states. The Registrant subsequently acquired seven of the
properties (each, an "Acquired Property") through foreclosure or in lieu of
foreclosure of the tax-exempt mortgage loans collateralized thereby. The
Acquired Properties were transferred to America First REIT, Inc. (the "REIT")
on June 1, 1993. Under the terms of the remaining mortgage loans, the
principal amounts do not amortize over their terms. The mortgage loans
provide for the payment of base interest to the Registrant and for the payment
of contingent interest based upon net cash flow and net capital appreciation
of the underlying real estate properties. Therefore, the return to the
Registrant depends upon the economic performance of the real estate which
collateralizes its remaining mortgage loans. For this reason, the
Registrant's investments are dependent on the economic performance of such
real estate and may be considered to be in competition with other
income-producing real estate of the same type in the same geographic areas.
A description of the seven tax-exempt mortgage loans held by the
Registrant at December 31, 1994 (and the properties collateralizing such
loans) appears in Note 5 of the Notes to Financial Statements filed in
response to Item 8 hereof.
On November 14, 1988, the Registrant incurred indebtedness of $10,800,000
through the reissuance of the tax-exempt bonds collateralized by a first
mortgage on an Acquired Property. These bonds were also transferred to the
REIT on June 1, 1993. See Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Note 1 of the Notes to
Financial Statements.
<PAGE>
On September 29, 1992, the Registrant incorporated the REIT as a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Registrant. The REIT issued 100,000 shares of common
stock to the Registrant for a total consideration of $1,000. On March 9,
1993, the REIT filed a registration statement on Form 10 with the Securities
and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for its
common stock. On June 1, 1993, the Registrant (i) transferred to the REIT the
real estate acquired by it in foreclosure of the mortgage loans along with
related debt, cash and certain of the Partnership's other assets and
liabilities in exchange for up to 2,494,782 shares of the REIT's common stock
and (ii) distributed all of the common stock of the REIT to the holders of
BUCs. The effect of these transactions was to separate the Registrant and the
REIT into two publicly held companies, one of which holds tax-exempt mortgage
loans and the other of which owns real estate. The REIT's common stock was
distributed in the ratio of one share of REIT common stock for every four BUCs
held as of May 21, 1993, the record date.
The Registrant is engaged solely in the business of providing financing
for the acquisition and improvement of real estate. Accordingly, the
presentation of information about industry segments is not applicable and
would not be material to an understanding of the Registrant's business taken
as a whole.
The Registrant has no employees. Certain services are provided to the
Registrant by employees of an affiliate of the general partner of the
Registrant, and the Registrant reimburses such affiliate for such services at
cost. The Registrant is not charged, and does not reimburse, for the services
performed by managers and officers of the general partner of the general
partner of the Registrant.
Item 2. Properties. The Registrant had invested in 14 tax-exempt
mortgage loans collateralized by first mortgages on multifamily housing
properties. Descriptions of the properties collateralizing the mortgage
loans held by the Registrant at December 31, 1994 appear in Note 5 of the
Notes to Financial Statements filed in response to Item 8 hereof.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings. There are no material pending legal
proceedings to which the Registrant is a party or to which any of its property
is subject.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. No matter
was submitted during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31,
1994 to a vote of the Registrant's security holders.

Item 7. Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Partnership originally
acquired 14 tax-exempt mortgage loans, the proceeds of which were used to
provide construction and/or permanent financing for 14 multifamily housing
properties. On June 1, 1993, the Partnership transferred to America First
REIT, Inc. (REIT) seven real estate properties acquired in foreclosure. At
December 31, 1994, the Partnership continued to hold seven tax-exempt
mortgage loans with a carrying value, net of allowance for loan losses, equal
to $66,026,000.
The following table shows the various occupancy levels of the properties
financed by the Partnership at December 31, 1994.

</TABLE>
The principal amounts of the tax-exempt mortgage loans do not amortize over
their terms. The tax-exempt mortgage loans provide for the payment of base
interest at a fixed rate. In addition, the Partnership may earn contingent
interest based on a participation in the net cash flow and net sale or
refinancing proceeds from the real estate collateralizing the tax-exempt
mortgage loans. Currently, the interest payments received on the tax-exempt
mortgage loans and interest on temporary cash investments represent the
principal sources of the Partnership's income and distributable cash.
The Partnership may draw on the reserve to pay operating expenses or to
supplement cash distributions to Beneficial Unit Certificate (BUC) Holders.
Distributions to BUC Holders currently consist of interest received from
mortgage loans, interest on temporary cash investments and withdrawals from
reserves. For the year ended December 31, 1994, undistributed income totaling
$235,909 was placed in reserves. The total amount held in reserves at
December 31, 1994, was $774,762. Future distributions to BUC Holders will
depend upon the amount of base and contingent interest received on the
mortgage loans, the size of the reserves established by the Partnership and
the extent to which withdrawals are made from reserves. Continuance of cash
distributions at the current rate may require withdrawals from Partnership
reserves.

On May 7, 1993, the Partnership announced the formation of a subsidiary
company, America First REIT, Inc., a real estate investment trust. On June 1,
1993, the Partnership transferred the seven real estate properties acquired in
settlement of loans along with related debt, cash, and certain of the
Partnership's other assets and liabilities to the REIT in exchange for all of
the issued and outstanding shares of the REIT's common stock. Thereafter, the
Partnership distributed all shares of the REIT to the BUC Holders in the ratio
of one share of REIT stock for every four BUCs they held as of the record
date, May 21, 1993. The Partnership continues to hold seven tax-exempt
mortgage loans in its portfolio and cash distributions are expected to
continue on a monthly basis at the annualized rate of $.54 per BUC.
<PAGE>
Asset Quality
It is the policy of the Partnership to make a periodic review of the real
estate collateralizing the Partnership's mortgage loans in order to establish,
when necessary, valuation reserves on mortgage loans. The valuation reserves
are based on management's best estimate of the net realizable value of the
properties; however, the ultimate realized values may vary from these
estimates. The net realizable value of the properties is determined based on
the discounted estimated future cash flows from the properties, including
estimated sale proceeds. The calculation of discounted estimated future cash
flow is based on certain variables such as the assumed inflation rates for
rents and expenses, capitalization rates and discount rates. These variables
are supplied to management by an independent real estate appraisal firm and
are based upon local market conditions for each property. In certain cases,
additional factors such as the replacement value of a property or comparable
sales of similar properties are also taken into consideration.
Based on the foregoing methodology, valuations and reviews performed during
1994 indicated that the mortgage loans recorded on the balance sheet at
December 31, 1994, required no adjustments to the carrying amounts.
Woodbridge Apartments of Bloomington III
Woodbridge Apartments of Bloomington III, located in Bloomington, Indiana, had
an average occupancy rate of 96% during 1994 and 1993. Interest is recognized
as income on this loan on the cash basis. Interest earned in 1994 was
$1,103,086 compared to $976,144 in 1993 and was approximately $32,000 more
than the amount needed to pay the base interest. The increase in interest
earned from 1993 to 1994 is the result of an increase in rental income due to
an increase in rental rates and decrease in operating expenses due primarily
to a decrease in repairs and maintenance expenses.
Ashley Pointe at Eagle Crest
Ashley Pointe at Eagle Crest, located in Evansville, Indiana, had an average
occupancy rate of 93% during 1994, compared to 94% during 1993. Interest is
recognized as income on this loan on the cash basis which is at a rate lower
than the base interest rate. Interest earned in 1994 was $402,385 compared to
$411,058 in 1993 and was approximately $167,000 less than the amount needed to
pay the base interest. The decrease in interest earned from 1993 to 1994 is
due primarily to overall increased operating expenses of the property.
Woodbridge Apartments of Louisville II
Woodbridge Apartments of Louisville II, located in Louisville, Kentucky, had
an average occupancy rate of 96% during 1994 and 1993. Interest is recognized
as income on this loan on the cash basis. Interest earned in 1994 was
$797,958 compared to $692,597 in 1993 and was approximately $35,000 more than
the amount needed to pay the base interest. The increase in interest earned
from 1993 to 1994 is the result of an increase in rental income due to an
increase in rental rates and a decrease in operating expenses due primarily to
a decrease in repairs and maintenance expenses.
Northwoods Lake Apartments
Northwoods Lake Apartments, located in Duluth, Georgia, had an average
occupancy rate of 98% during 1994, compared to 97% during 1993. Interest is
recognized as income on this loan on the cash basis which is at a rate lower
than the base interest rate. Interest earned by the Partnership in 1994 was
$1,831,556 compared to $1,557,147 in 1993 but was approximately $315,000 less
than the amount needed to pay the base interest. The increase in interest
earned from 1993 to 1994 is due primarily to approximately $310,000 of income
not recorded by the Partnership during 1993 since it was withheld by the
previous owner of the property.
The cash flow generated by the property increased approximately $9,000. This
increase is due to an increase in rental revenue resulting from rental rate
increases which was partially offset by increased operating expenses due
primarily to painting the exterior of the property and other property
improvements.
Ashley Square
Ashley Square, located in Des Moines, Iowa, had an average occupancy rate of
97% during 1994 and 1993. Interest is recognized as income on this loan on
the cash basis which is at a rate lower than the base interest rate. Interest
earned in 1994 was $427,388 compared to $413,492 in 1993 but was approximately
$125,000 less than the amount needed to pay the base interest. The increase
in interest earned from 1993 to 1994 is due to an increase in rental income
due to an increase in rental rates which was partially offset by an overall
increase in operating expenses.
Shoals Crossing
Shoals Crossing, located in Atlanta, Georgia, had an average occupancy rate of
96% during 1994 and 1993. Net operating income in 1994 decreased
approximately $15,000 compared to 1993 due to an overall increase in operating
expenses. The property is current on its interest payments. Debt service on
the mortgage loan was generally made from property cash flow; however,
withdrawals of approximately $9,000 were made from the property's cash flow
guarantee reserve fund to supplement the property's cash flow to keep interest
payments current.
Arama Apartments
Arama Apartments, located in Miami, Florida, had an average occupancy rate of
99% during 1994 and 1993. Interest on this loan, at the base interest rate,
is current. In addition, $211,319 of contingent interest was earned in 1994
compared with $192,343 in 1993. The increase in contingent interest is due to
an increase of approximately $69,000 in the net operating income for the
property from 1993 to 1994. This increase is a result of rental rate increases
which were partially offset by an increase in operating expenses generated by
the property.
<PAGE>
Results of Operations
The Partnership ended its ninth full year of operations on December 31, 1994.
Due to the transfer of real estate and related debt to the REIT on June 1,
1993, the 1994 financial statements do not reflect any real estate operations;
the 1993 financial statements only reflect five months of real estate
operations. The 1992 financial statements reflect a full twelve months of
real estate operations. The table below compares the results of operations

</TABLE>
Mortgage investment income during 1994 was approximately $512,000 greater than
1993. This increase is attributable to increased cash flow from Northwoods
Lake Apartments of $275,000, Woodbridge Apts. of Bloomington III of $127,000,
Woodbridge Apts. of Louisville II of $105,000 and Ashley Square of $14,000
offset by a decrease in cash flow from Ashley Pointe at Eagle Crest of
$9,000. The increase in cash flow from Northwoods Lake Apartments is due to
the Partnership receiving twelve monthly interest payments in 1994 whereas the
prior owner withheld two monthly payments in 1993. The increase in cash flow
from Woodbridge Apts. of Bloomington III and Woodbridge Apts. of Louisville II
is primarily attributable to increases in rental income and decreases in
repairs and maintenance expenses. The increase in cash flow from Ashley
Square is due to an increase in rental income due to an increase in rental
rates offset by an overall increase in operating expenses. The decrease in
cash flow from Ashley Pointe at Eagle Crest is due to overall increased
operating expenses.
Mortgage investment income during 1993 was approximately $187,000 less than
1992. This decrease is attributable to decreased cash flow from Woodbridge
Apts. of Bloomington III of $67,000, Northwoods Lake Apartments of $65,000,
Ashley Point at Eagle Crest of $43,000, Ashley Square of $8,000 and
Woodbridge Apts. of Louisville II of $4,000. The decrease in cash flow from
Woodbridge Apts. of Bloomington III primarily relates to exterior painting
expenses incurred during 1993. The decrease in cash flow from Northwoods Lake
Apartments is primarily attributable to the owner withholding funds as
described above. The decrease in cash flow at Ashley Point at Eagle Crest is
primarily due to an increase in repair expenses. The decrease in cash flow at
Ashley Square is attributable to higher repairs and real estate taxes.
The increases in contingent interest income of $18,976 from 1993 to 1994 and
$69,747 from 1992 to 1993 are attributable to increased cash flow from the
Arama Apartments. The decreases in interest income on temporary cash
investments of $7,654 from 1993 to 1994 and $42,483 from 1992 to 1993 are
attributable to withdrawals from Partnership reserves and changes in the
interest rate environment.
Due to the transfer of real estate and related debt to the REIT on June 1,
1993, the 1994 financial statements do not reflect any real estate operations
and the 1993 financial statements only reflect five months of real estate
operations. The 1992 financial statements reflect a full twelve months of
real estate operations. Accordingly, rental income, real estate operating
expenses, depreciation and interest expense all decreased from 1993 to 1994
and 1992 to 1993.
<PAGE>
General and administrative expenses decreased by $555,270 from 1993 to 1994
and $154,837 from 1992 to 1993 due to reductions of approximately $414,500
resulting from the transfer of the properties to the REIT during 1993 offset
by $259,627 of additional expenses incurred in 1993 in conjunction with the
distribution of the REIT shares to the BUC Holders.
The table below segregates the results of operations for the Partnership's
real estate operations and tax-exempt mortgage lending activities for each
year shown.

Independent Accountants' Report
To the Partners
America First Tax Exempt Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of America First Tax Exempt
Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the
related statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of America First Tax Exempt
Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1994, and 1993, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1994, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

AMERICA FIRST TAX EXEMPT MORTGAGE FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1994
1. ORGANIZATION
America First Tax Exempt Mortgage Fund Limited Partnership (the Partnership)
was formed on November 11, 1985, under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act for the purpose of acquiring a portfolio of federally tax-exempt
participating first mortgage loans collateralized by income-producing real
estate consisting of multifamily residential apartments. The Partnership will
terminate on December 31, 2015, unless terminated earlier under the provisions
of the Partnership Agreement. The General Partner of the Partnership is America
First Capital Associates Limited Partnership Two (AFCA 2).
On May 7, 1993, the Partnership announced the formation of a subsidiary
company, America First REIT, Inc., a real estate investment trust. On June 1,
1993, the Partnership transferred the seven real estate properties acquired in
settlement of loans along with related debt, cash, and certain of the
Partnership's other assets and liabilities to the REIT in exchange for all of
the issued and outstanding shares of the REIT's common stock. Thereafter, the
Partnership distributed all shares of the REIT to the BUC Holders in the ratio
of one share of REIT stock for every four BUCs they held as of the record
date, May 21, 1993.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A)Method of Accounting
The financial statements of the Partnership are prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.
B)Investment in Tax-Exempt Mortgage Loans
The Partnership records its investment in tax-exempt mortgage loans at cost.
Accrual of mortgage interest income is excluded from income, when, in the
opinion of management, collection of such interest is doubtful. This
interest is recognized as income when it is received.
C)Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is a valuation reserve which has been
established at a level that management feels is adequate to absorb potential
losses on outstanding loans. The allowance is based upon management's
estimates; however, the ultimate realized values may vary from the current
estimates. These estimates are periodically reviewed and, as adjustments
become necessary, they are reported in the period in which they become
known.
D)Depreciation
Depreciation on the real estate properties transferred to the REIT is based
on the estimated useful life of the property (27 1/2 years) using the
straight-line method.
E)Income Taxes
No provision has been made for income taxes since the Beneficial Unit
Certificate (BUC) Holders are required to report their share of the
Partnership's taxable income for federal and state income tax purposes.
F)Temporary Cash Investments
Temporary cash investments are invested in federally tax-exempt securities
purchased with a maturity of three months or less.
G)Net Income per BUC
Net income per BUC has been calculated based on the number of BUCs
outstanding (9,979,128) for all years presented.
3. PARTNERSHIP INCOME, EXPENSES AND CASH DISTRIBUTIONS
The Partnership Agreement contains provisions for the distribution of Net
Interest Income and Net Residual Proceeds and for the allocation of income and
expenses for tax purposes among AFCA 2 and BUC Holders. Income and expenses
will be allocated to each BUC Holder on a monthly basis based on the number of
BUCs held by each BUC Holder as of the last day of the month for which such
allocation is to be made. Distributions of Net Interest Income and Net
Residual Proceeds will be made to each BUC Holder of record on the last day of
each distribution period based on the number of BUCs held by each BUC Holder
as of such date.
Net Interest Income, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, in each
distribution period will be distributed 99% to the BUC Holders and 1% to AFCA
2 until the BUC Holders have received distributions of Net Interest Income
equal to a cumulative noncompounded annual return of 11% on their Adjusted
Capital Contributions, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, at
which point all remaining Net Interest Income for such distribution period
will be distributed 90% to the BUC Holders and 10% to AFCA 2.
The portion of Net Residual Proceeds, as defined in the Limited Partnership
Agreement, representing a return of principal will be distributed 100% to the
BUC Holders. The portion of Net Residual Proceeds representing contingent
interest will be distributed 100% to the BUC Holders until the BUC Holders
have received distributions from all sources which represent a return of $20
per BUC plus an amount equal to a cumulative noncompounded annual return of
11% on their Adjusted Capital Contributions. Any remaining Net Residual
Proceeds representing contingent interest will be allocated 100% to AFCA 2 to
the extent of 10% of all Net Residual Proceeds representing contingent
interest distributed to all parties exclusive of the following described
amounts. Thereafter, any remaining Net Residual Proceeds representing
contingent interest will be distributed 90% to BUC Holders and 10% to AFCA 2.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Net Interest Income representing contingent
interest and Net Residual Proceeds representing contingent interest in an
amount equal to .9% per annum of the principal amount of the mortgage loans on
a cumulative basis will be distributed 75% to the BUC Holders and 25% to AFCA
2.
Liquidation Proceeds, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement,
remaining after repayment of any debts or obligations of the Partnership
(including loans from AFCA 2) and after the establishment of any reserve AFCA
2 deems necessary, will be distributed to AFCA 2 and BUC Holders to the extent
of positive balances in their capital accounts. Any remaining Liquidation
Proceeds will be distributed in the same manner as the Net Residual Proceeds.
Cash distributions are presently made on a monthly basis but may be made
quarterly if AFCA 2 so elects. The cash distributions included in the
financial statements represent the actual cash distributions made during each
year and the cash distributions accrued at the end of each year.

AFCA 2 received from property owners administrative fees of $54,450, $54,456
and $80,248 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. Since these fees are not
Partnership expenses, they have not been reflected in the accompanying
financial statements. In addition, pursuant to the Limited Partnership
Agreement, AFCA 2 is entitled to an administrative fee from the Partnership in
the event the Partnership becomes the equity owner of a property by reason of
foreclosure. The amount of such fees paid to AFCA 2 was $188,569 for 1993 and
$452,565 for 1992. The Partnership has not paid any administrative fees
subsequent to June 1, 1993, since all foreclosed properties have been
transferred to the REIT. AFCA 2 was entitled to receive approximately
$359,000 in administrative fees from the Partnership for the year ended
December 31, 1989. The payment of these fees, which has been deferred by AFCA
2, is contingent upon, and will be paid only out of future profits realized by
the Partnership from the disposition of assets. This amount will be recorded
as an expense by the Partnership when it is probable that these fees will be
paid.
An affiliate of AFCA 2 has been retained to provide property management
services for Ashley Square beginning in June, 1992 and Northwoods Lake
Apartments beginning in March, 1993. The fees for services provided represent
the lower of (i) costs incurred in providing management of the property, or
(ii) customary fees for such services determined on a competitive basis, and
amounted to $164,490 in 1994 and $144,285 in 1993. Property management fees
of $190,661 were paid through May 31, 1993, for the properties transferred to
the REIT. Property management fees were $169,888 in 1992.
The Partnership incurred expenses in conjunction with the distribution of REIT
stock totaling $259,627 in 1993 ($173,103 was paid by an affiliate and
reimbursed by the Partnership and $86,524 was paid directly by the
Partnership).
