(collectively  the  "Purchasers")  hereby  seek  to  acquire  Units  of  limited
partnership  interest (the "Units") in RESOURCES ACCRUED MORTGAGE INVESTORS L.P.
- - Series 86, a Delaware limited partnership (the  "Partnership").  The Units are
collectively  referred to as the "Units". The Purchasers are not affiliated with
the Partnership,  RAM Funding,  Inc., a Delaware corporation,  the Partnership's
investment  general  partner  ("Investment  General  Partner"),  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary  of Presidio  Capital  Corp.,  Resources  Capital  Corp.,  a Delaware
corporation,  the Partnership's  administrative general partner ("Administrative
General Partner"),  also a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Presidio, or any of their
affiliates.  The  Purchasers  hereby offer to purchase  any and all  outstanding
Units  at a  purchase  price  equal to $15 per  Unit,  less  the  amount  of any
distributions  declared or made with  respect to the Units  between  October 31,
1999 (the "Offer  Date") and December 3, 1999,  or such other date to which this
Offer may be extended (the "Expiration  Date"), in cash, without interest,  upon
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase (the
"Offer to Purchase")  and in the related Letter of  Transmittal,  as each may be
supplemented  or  amended  from  time to time  (which  together  constitute  the
"Offer").  Certain of the Purchasers and affiliates of certain of the Purchasers
currently own an aggregate  total of 4,312 Units or  approximately  1.31% of the
total outstanding Units.


<PAGE>



Holders of Units ("Unitholders") are urged to consider the following factors:

             -       Unitholders  who  tender  their  Units  will  give  up  the
                     opportunity to participate in any future  benefits from the
                     ownership   of   Units,    including    potential    future
                     distributions  by the  Partnership,  and the purchase price
                     per  Unit  payable  to  a  tendering   Unitholder   by  the
                     Purchasers  may be less than the total  amount  which might
                     otherwise be received by the Unitholder with respect to the
                     Unit over the remaining term of the Partnership.

             -       The Purchasers are making the Offer for investment purposes
                     and  with  the  intention  of  making  a  profit  from  the
                     ownership of the Units. In establishing  the purchase price
                     of $15 per Unit,  the Purchasers are motivated to establish
                     the lowest price which might be acceptable  to  Unitholders
                     consistent  with the  Purchasers'  objectives.  There is no
                     public  market for the Units,  and neither the Unit holders
                     nor the Purchasers  have any accurate means for determining
                     the actual  present value of the Units.  Although there can
                     be no  certainty  as to the  actual  present  value  of the
                     Units, the Purchasers have estimated that the assets of the
                     Partnership  could have an estimated  liquidation  value of
                     $18 per  Unit.  It  should  be  noted,  however,  that  the
                     Purchasers  have not made an  independent  appraisal of the
                     Units or the Partnership's assets, and are not qualified to
                     appraise  real  estate.   Accordingly,   there  can  be  no
                     assurance  that  this  estimate   accurately   reflects  an
                     approximate  value of the Units or that the actual  amounts
                     which may be realized by holders for the Units may not vary
                     substantially from this estimate.

             -       As a result of  consummation  of the Offer,  the Purchasers
                     may  be  in  a  position  to  significantly  influence  all
                     Partnership  decisions on which  Unitholders  may vote. The
                     Purchasers will vote the Units acquired in the Offer in its
                     own  interest,  which may be different  from or in conflict
                     with the interests of the remaining Unitholders.

             -       The Depositary,  MacKenzie Patterson, Inc., is an affiliate
                     of certain of the  Purchasers.  No  independent  party will
                     hold securities tendered until the offer closes and payment
                     is made.

THE OFFER TO PURCHASE IS NOT CONDITIONED  UPON ANY MINIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS BEING
TENDERED.

The Purchasers  expressly  reserve the right, in their sole  discretion,  at any
time and from time to time,  (i) to extend the period of time  during  which the
Offer is open and thereby delay  acceptance for payment of, and the payment for,
any  Units,  (ii) upon the  occurrence  of any of the  conditions  specified  in
Section 13 of this Offer to Purchase,  to terminate the Offer and not accept for
payment any Units not theretofore  accepted for payment or paid for, or to delay
the  acceptance  for  payment  of, or  payment  for,  any Units not  theretofore
accepted  for payment or paid for,  and (iii) to amend the Offer in any respect.
Notice  of any  such  extension,  termination  or  amendment  will  promptly  be
disseminated  to  Unitholders  in  a  manner   reasonably   designed  to  inform
Unitholders of such change in compliance with Rule 14d-4(c) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the  "Exchange  Act").  In the case of an extension of the
Offer, such extension will be followed by a press release or public announcement
which will be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, on the next
business  day after the  scheduled  Expiration  Date,  in  accordance  with Rule
14e-1(d) under the Exchange Act.

To the Unitholders of RESOURCES ACCRUED MORTGAGE INVESTORS L.P. - Series 86

                                  INTRODUCTION

         The Purchasers  hereby offer to purchase any and all outstanding  Units
at a  purchase  price of $15 per  Unit,  less the  amount  of any  distributions
declared  or paid with  respect  to the  Units  between  the Offer  Date and the
Expiration Date ("Offer Price"),  in cash, without interest,  upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer.  Unitholders  who tender their
Units will not be obligated to pay any  Partnership  transfer fees, or any other
fees,  expenses  or  commissions  in  connection  with the tender of Units.  The
Purchasers  will  pay  all  such  costs  and all  charges  and  expenses  of the
Depositary,  an  affiliate  of  certain  of the  Purchasers,  as  depositary  in
connection with the Offer.

         For further information concerning the Purchasers, see Section 11 below
and Schedule I.

         None of the  Purchasers  nor the  Depositary  is  affiliated  with  the
Partnership,  RAM  Funding,  Inc.,  a Delaware  corporation,  the  Partnership's
investment  general  partner  ("Investment  General  Partner"),  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary  of Presidio  Capital  Corp.,  Resources  Capital  Corp.,  a Delaware
corporation,  the Partnership's  administrative general partner ("Administrative
General Partner"),  also a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Presidio, or any of their
affiliates.

Unitholders are urged to consider the following factors:

         -        Unitholders   who  tender   their   Units  will  give  up  the
                  opportunity  to  participate  in any future  benefits from the
                  ownership of Units,  including potential future  distributions
                  by the Partnership, and the purchase price per Unit payable to
                  a tendering  Unitholder by the Purchasers may be less than the
                  total  amount  which  might   otherwise  be  received  by  the
                  Unitholder with respect to the Unit over the remaining term of
                  the Partnership.

         -        The Purchasers  are making the Offer for  investment  purposes
                  and with the  intention of making a profit from the  ownership
                  of the Units.  In  establishing  the purchase price of $15 per
                  Unit,  the  Purchasers  are  motivated to establish the lowest
                  price which might be acceptable to Unitholders consistent with
                  the Purchasers' objectives.  There is no public market for the
                  Units,  and neither the Unit holders nor the  Purchasers  have
                  any accurate means for determining the actual present value of
                  the Units. Although there can be no certainty as to the actual
                  present value of the Units, the Purchasers have estimated that
                  the  assets  of  the  Partnership   could  have  an  estimated
                  liquidation  value  of $18  per  Unit.  It  should  be  noted,
                  however,  that the  Purchasers  have  not made an  independent
                  appraisal of the Units or the  Partnership's  assets,  and are
                  not qualified to appraise real estate. Accordingly,  there can
                  be no  assurance  that this  estimate  accurately  reflects an
                  approximate  value of the  Units or that  the  actual  amounts
                  which may be  realized  by holders  for the Units may not vary
                  substantially from this estimate.

         -        As a result of consummation of the Offer, the Purchaser may be
                  in a  position  to  significantly  influence  all  Partnership
                  decisions on which  Unitholders  may vote.  The Purchaser will
                  vote the  Units  acquired  in the  Offer in its own  interest,
                  which may be different  from or in conflict with the interests
                  of the remaining Unitholders.

         -        The Depositary,  MacKenzie Patterson, Inc., is an affiliate of
                  the  Purchasers.  No  independent  party will hold  securities
                  tendered until the offer closes and payment is made.

         The Offer will provide  Unitholders  with an  opportunity  to liquidate
their  investment  without the usual  transaction  costs  associated with market
sales. Unitholders may have a more immediate need to use the cash now tied up in
an investment in the Units and wish to sell them to the Purchasers. Unit holders
who  sell all of their  Units  will  also  eliminate  the need to file  form K-1
information with their federal tax returns for years after 1999.

Establishment of the Offer Price

         The  Purchasers  have set the  Offer  Price at $15 per  Unit,  less the
amount of any  distributions  declared or made with respect to the Units between
the  Offer  Date and  Expiration  Date.  In  determining  the Offer  Price,  the
Purchasers   analyzed  a  number  of  quantitative   and  qualitative   factors,
including:(i)  the lack of a  secondary  market for resales of the Units and the
resulting  lack of  liquidity  of an  investment  in the  Partnership;  (ii) the
estimated value of the  Partnership's  real estate asset; and (iii) the costs to
the Purchasers associated with acquiring the Units.

         The  Partnership  made the following  statement in its annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998: "There is no established  public
trading market for the Units of Registrant.  There are certain  restrictions set
forth in the  Partnership  Agreement  which may limit the  ability  of a limited
partner to  transfer  units.  Such  restrictions  could  impair the ability of a
limited  partner to liquidate its investment in the event of an emergency or for
any other  reason."  The lack of any public  market for the sale of Units  means
that Unit holders have limited alternatives if they seek to sell their Units. As
a result of such limited  alternatives for Unit holders,  the Purchasers may not
need to offer as high a price  for the  Units as they  would  otherwise.  On the
other hand, the Purchasers  take a greater risk in establishing a purchase price
as  there  is no  prevailing  market  price  to be used  for  reference  and the
Purchasers   themselves   will  have  limited   liquidity  for  the  Units  upon
consummation of the purchase.

         Certain of the  Purchasers  and affiliates of certain of the Purchasers
currently own an aggregate  total of 4,312 Units or  approximately  1.31% of the
total  outstanding  Units.  Of these Units,  280 Units were acquired  during the
preceding six months,  80 Units at a price of $12 per Unit, and, within the most
recent month, 200 Units at a price of $15 per Unit.

         The  Purchasers  are  offering to purchase  Units which are an illiquid
investment and are not offering to purchase the Partnership's underlying assets.
The assets of the Partnership may not be liquidated for an indefinite  period of
time.  Accordingly,  the underlying  asset value of the  Partnership is only one
factor used by the  Purchasers in arriving at the Offer Price.  However,  in the
absence of trading price information,  the Purchasers  estimate of the net asset
value of the  Partnership  may be relevant to Unit  holders  review of the Offer
Price.

         As of March 1, 1999, the Partnership owns (i) one zero-coupon  Mortgage
Loan (West Palm) in the original amount of $9,200,000  (restructured during 1997
to a $5,000,000  loan with all interest  accruing at 7% per annum and  principal
due and  payable at maturity in  February  2017);  (ii) an equity  participation
interest in one property  (Berkeley) which  originally  secured another mortgage
loan; and a hotel located in Richmond, Virginia obtained through foreclosure.

         The  Offer  Price  represents  the price at which  the  Purchasers  are
willing to purchase Units.

No  independent  person has been retained to evaluate or render any opinion with
respect to the fairness of the Offer Price and no  representation is made by the
Purchasers  or any  affiliate  of the  Purchasers  as to  such  fairness.  Other
measures of the value of the Units may be relevant to  Unitholders.  Unitholders
are urged to consider  carefully  all of the  information  contained  herein and
consult with their own advisors,  tax, financial or otherwise, in evaluating the
terms of the Offer before deciding whether to tender Units.

General Background Information

         Certain  information  contained in this Offer to Purchase which relates
to, or represents,  statements made by the  Partnership or the General  Partner,
has been derived from  information  provided in reports filed by the Partnership
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

         According to publicly available  information,  there were 330,004 Units
issued and  outstanding  held by  approximately  11,500  Unitholders at March 1,
1999.

         Tendering  Unitholders  will not be  obligated  to pay  transfer  fees,
brokerage  fees or  commissions  on the  sale  of the  Units  to the  Purchasers
pursuant to the Offer. The Purchasers will pay all charges and expenses incurred
in  connection  with the Offer.  The  Purchasers  desire to  purchase  all Units
tendered by each Unitholder.

         If,  prior  to  the  Expiration  Date,  the  Purchasers   increase  the
consideration  offered to  Unitholders  pursuant  to the Offer,  such  increased
consideration will be paid with respect to all Units that are purchased pursuant
to the Offer,  whether or not such Units were tendered prior to such increase in
consideration.

         Unitholders   are  urged  to  read  this  Offer  to  Purchase  and  the
accompanying  Letter of Transmittal  carefully before deciding whether to tender
their Units.

                                  TENDER OFFER

Section 1. Terms of the Offer.  Upon the terms and subject to the  conditions of
the Offer,  the  Purchasers  will accept for  payment and pay for Units  validly
tendered on or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn in accordance with
Section 4 of this Offer to Purchase. The term "Expiration Date" shall mean 12:00
midnight,  Pacific  Standard  Time,  on December  3, 1999,  unless and until the
Purchasers  shall have  extended the period of time for which the Offer is open,
in which event the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the latest time and date on
which the Offer, as so extended by the Purchasers, shall expire.

         The Offer is conditioned on  satisfaction  of certain  conditions.  See
Section 13, which sets forth in full the conditions of the Offer. The Purchasers
reserve the right (but shall not be obligated), in their sole discretion and for
any reason, to waive any or all of such conditions.  If, by the Expiration Date,
any or all of such conditions have not been satisfied or waived,  the Purchasers
reserve the right (but shall not be obligated) to (i) decline to purchase any of
the Units  tendered,  terminate  the  Offer and  return  all  tendered  Units to
tendering Unitholders, (ii) waive all the unsatisfied conditions and, subject to
complying with applicable rules and regulations of the Commission,  purchase all
Units  validly  tendered,  (iii)  extend the Offer and,  subject to the right of
Unitholders to withdraw Units until the Expiration  Date,  retain the Units that
have been tendered  during the period or periods for which the Offer is extended
or (iv) to amend the Offer.


                                        7


<PAGE>



         The Purchasers do not anticipate and have no reason to believe that any
condition or event will occur that would prevent the Purchasers  from purchasing
tendered Units as offered herein.

Section 2. Proration; Acceptance for Payment and Payment for Units.

         The Purchasers are offering to purchase any and all outstanding  Units.
Accordingly, there will be no pro ration of Units tendered.

         Upon the terms and subject to the  conditions of the Offer  (including,
if the Offer is extended or amended,  the terms and  conditions of any extension
or amendment),  the Purchasers will accept for payment,  and will pay for, Units
validly  tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with Section 4, as promptly as
practicable  following  the  Expiration  Date.  In all cases,  payment for Units
purchased  pursuant to the Offer will be made only after  timely  receipt by the
Depositary of a properly  completed and duly executed  Letter of Transmittal (or
facsimile   thereof)  and  any  other  documents   required  by  the  Letter  of
Transmittal.

         For  purposes  of the  Offer,  the  Purchasers  shall be deemed to have
accepted for payment (and thereby purchased)  tendered Units when, as and if the
Purchasers  give oral or written  notice to the  Depositary  of the  Purchasers'
acceptance for payment of such Units  pursuant to the Offer.  Upon the terms and
subject to the conditions of the Offer,  payment for Units purchased pursuant to
the Offer  will in all cases be made by  deposit  of the  Offer  Price  with the
Depositary,  which  will  act as agent  for the  tendering  Unitholders  for the
purpose of receiving  payment from the  Purchasers and  transmitting  payment to
tendering Unitholders.

         Under no  circumstances  will  interest  be paid on the Offer  Price by
reason of any delay in making such payment.

         If any tendered  Units are not purchased for any reason,  the Letter of
Transmittal  with  respect  to such Units not  purchased  will be of no force or
effect.  If, for any reason  whatsoever,  acceptance  for payment of, or payment
for, any Units  tendered  pursuant to the Offer is delayed or the Purchasers are
unable to accept for payment, purchase or pay for Units tendered pursuant to the
Offer,  then,  without prejudice to the Purchasers' rights under Section 13 (but
subject to compliance with Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act), the Depositary
may, nevertheless,  on behalf of the Purchasers,  retain tendered Units, subject
to any limitations of applicable law, and such Units may not be withdrawn except
to the extent that the tendering  Unitholders are entitled to withdrawal  rights
as described in Section 4.

         If, prior to the Expiration  Date,  the  Purchasers  shall increase the
consideration  offered to  Unitholders  pursuant  to the Offer,  such  increased
consideration  shall be paid for all Units accepted for payment  pursuant to the
Offer, whether or not such Units were tendered prior to such increase.

Section 3. Procedures for Tendering Units.

Valid Tender. For Units to be validly tendered pursuant to the Offer, a properly
completed and duly executed  Letter of  Transmittal (a copy of which is enclosed
with this Offer to Purchase,  printed on purple paper) with any other  documents
required by the Letter of Transmittal  must be received by the Depositary at its
address set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase on or prior to the
Expiration  Date.  A  Unitholder  may  tender  any or all  Units  owned  by such
Unitholder.


                                        8


<PAGE>



         In order for a tendering  Unitholder to participate in the Offer, Units
must be validly  tendered and not withdrawn prior to the Expiration  Date, which
is 12:00 midnight,  Pacific  Standard Time, on December 3, 1999, or such date to
which the Offer may be extended.

The method of  delivery  of the  Letter of  Transmittal  and all other  required
documents  is at the option and risk of the  tendering  Unitholder  and delivery
will be deemed made only when actually received by the Depositary.

Backup Federal Income Tax  Withholding.  To prevent the possible  application of
31% backup federal income tax  withholding  with respect to payment of the Offer
Price for Units  purchased  pursuant to the Offer, a tendering  Unitholder  must
provide the Depositary with such  Unitholder's  correct taxpayer  identification
number and make certain  certifications  that such  Unitholder is not subject to
backup federal income tax withholding.  Each tendering Unitholder must insert in
the Letter of Transmittal the  Unitholder's  taxpayer  identification  number or
social  security  number in the  space  provided  on the front of the  Letter of
Transmittal.  The Letter of  Transmittal  also  includes a substitute  Form W-9,
which contains the  certifications  referred to above.  (See the Instructions to
the Letter of Transmittal.)

FIRPTA  Withholding.  To prevent  the withholding  of federal  income tax  in an
amount equal to 10% of the sum of the Offer Price plus the amount of Partnership
liabilities  allocable to each Unit tendered,  each Unitholder must complete the
FIRPTA  Affidavit  included  in  the  Letter  of  Transmittal   certifying  such
Unitholder's taxpayer  identification number and address and that the Unitholder
is not a foreign person.  (See the Instructions to the Letter of Transmittal and
"Section 6. Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences.")

Other  Requirements.  By executing a Letter of Transmittal as set forth above, a
tendering  Unitholder  irrevocably  appoints the designees of the  Purchasers as
such Unitholder's proxies, in the manner set forth in the Letter of Transmittal,
each with full power of  substitution,  to the full extent of such  Unitholder's
rights with respect to the Units  tendered by such  Unitholder  and accepted for
payment by the Purchasers.  Such appointment will be effective when, and only to
the  extent  that,  the  Purchasers  accept  such Units for  payment.  Upon such
acceptance for payment,  all prior proxies given by such Unitholder with respect
to such Units  will,  without  further  action,  be revoked,  and no  subsequent
proxies may be given (and if given will not be effective).  The designees of the
Purchasers will, with respect to such Units, be empowered to exercise all voting
and other rights of such  Unitholder as they in their sole  discretion  may deem
proper at any  meeting of  Unitholders,  by written  consent  or  otherwise.  In
addition, by executing a Letter of Transmittal, a Unitholder also assigns to the
Purchasers  all of the  Unitholder's  rights to receive  distributions  from the
Partnership  with respect to Units which are accepted for payment and  purchased
pursuant to the Offer,  other than those  distributions  declared or paid during
the period commencing on the Offer Date and terminating on the Expiration Date.

Determination of Validity;  Rejection of Units; Waiver of Defects; No Obligation
to Give Notice of Defects. All questions as to the validity,  form,  eligibility
(including  time of receipt) and  acceptance  for payment of any tender of Units
pursuant to the procedures described above will be determined by the Purchasers,
in their sole discretion,  which determination  shall be final and binding.  The
Purchasers  reserve  the  absolute  right to reject any or all tenders if not in
proper form or if the  acceptance  of, or payment  for,  the  absolute  right to
reject any or all  tenders  if not in proper  form or if the  acceptance  of, or
payment for, the Units tendered may, in the opinion of the Purchasers'  counsel,
be  unlawful.  The  Purchasers  also  reserve  the right to waive any  defect or
irregularity  in  any  tender  with  respect  to  any  particular  Units  of any


                                        9


<PAGE>


particular  Unitholder,  and the  Purchasers'  interpretation  of the  terms and
conditions  of  the  Offer   (including  the  Letter  of  Transmittal   and  the
Instructions  thereto) will be final and binding.  Neither the  Purchasers,  the
Depositary,  nor any other person will be under any duty to give notification of
any  defects  or  irregularities  in the  tender of any Units or will  incur any
liability for failure to give any such notification.

         A tender of Units  pursuant to any of the  procedures  described  above
will  constitute a binding  agreement  between the tendering  Unitholder and the
Purchasers upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer,  including
the tendering Unitholder's  representation and warranty that (i) such Unitholder
owns the Units  being  tendered  within  the  meaning  of Rule  14e-4  under the
Exchange  Act and (ii) the tender of such Unit  complies  with Rule 14e-4.  Rule
14e-4 requires, in general, that a tendering security holder actually be able to
deliver the security subject to the tender offer, and is of concern particularly
to any Unitholders who have granted options to sell or purchase the Units,  hold
option  rights to acquire such  securities,  maintain  "short"  positions in the
Units  (i.e.,  have  borrowed  the  Units) or have  loaned  the Units to a short
seller. Because of the nature of limited partnership  interests,  the Purchasers
believe it is unlikely that any option trading or short selling  activity exists
with respect to the Units.  In any event, a Unit holder will be deemed to tender
Units in  compliance  with Rule  14e-4 and the Offer if the holder is the record
owner of the Units and the holder (i) delivers  the Units  pursuant to the terms
of the Offer,  (ii)  causes  such  delivery to be made,  (iii)  guarantees  such
delivery,  (iv) causes a guaranty of such delivery, or (v) uses any other method
permitted in the Offer (such as facsimile delivery of the Transmittal Letter).

Section 4. Withdrawal  Rights.  Except as otherwise  provided in this Section 4,
all tenders of Units pursuant to the Offer are irrevocable,  provided that Units
tendered  pursuant  to the  Offer  may be  withdrawn  at any  time  prior to the
Expiration Date and, unless theretofore accepted for payment as provided in this
Offer to  Purchase,  may also be  withdrawn  at any time on or after  January 2,
2000.

         For  withdrawal  to be effective,  a written or facsimile  transmission
notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the Depositary at the address or
the facsimile  number set forth in the attached Letter of Transmittal.  Any such
notice of withdrawal  must specify the name of the person who tendered the Units
to be  withdrawn  and must be signed by the  person(s)  who signed the Letter of
Transmittal in the same manner as the Letter of Transmittal was signed.

         If purchase of, or payment  for,  Units is delayed for any reason or if
the  Purchasers  are unable to purchase  or pay for Units for any reason,  then,
without prejudice to the Purchasers' rights under the Offer,  tendered Units may
be  retained  by the  Depositary  on  behalf  of the  Purchasers  and may not be
withdrawn  except to the extent  that  tendering  Unitholders  are  entitled  to
withdrawal rights as set forth in this Section 4, subject to Rule 14e-1(c) under
the Exchange Act,  which  provides that no person who makes a tender offer shall
fail to pay the consideration  offered or return the securities  deposited by or
on behalf of security  holders  promptly after the  termination or withdrawal of
the tender offer.

         All questions as to the form and validity  (including  time of receipt)
of notices of withdrawal  will be determined  by the  Purchasers,  in their sole
discretion,  which  determination  shall  be  final  and  binding.  Neither  the
Purchasers,  the Depositary, nor any other person will be under any duty to give
notification  of any defects or  irregularities  in any notice of  withdrawal or
will incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

         Any Units properly  withdrawn will be deemed not to be validly tendered
for  purposes of the Offer.  Withdrawn  Units may be  re-tendered,  however,  by
following  the  procedures  described  in  Section  3 at any  time  prior to the
Expiration Date.

                                       10

Section 5. Extension of Tender Period;  Termination;  Amendment.  The Purchasers
expressly reserve the right, in their sole discretion, at any time and from time
to time,  (i) to extend  the period of time  during  which the Offer is open and
thereby  delay  acceptance  for payment of, and the  payment  for,  any Units by
giving oral or written notice of such extension to the Depositary, (ii) upon the
occurrence or failure to occur of any of the conditions specified in Section 13,
to delay the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, any Units not heretofore
accepted for payment or paid for, or to  terminate  the Offer and not accept for
payment any Units not  theretofore  accepted  for payment or paid for, by giving
oral or written notice of such termination to the Depositary, and (iii) to amend
the Offer in any  respect  (including,  without  limitation,  by  increasing  or
decreasing the consideration  offered or the number of Units being sought in the
Offer or both or changing the type of  consideration)  by giving oral or written
notice of such  amendment  to the  Depositary.  Any  extension,  termination  or
amendment will be followed as promptly as  practicable  by public  announcement,
the  announcement  in the case of an  extension  to be issued no later than 9:00
a.m.,  Eastern  Standard  Time,  on the next  business day after the  previously
scheduled   Expiration   Date,  in  accordance  with  the  public   announcement
requirement of Rule 14d-4(c) under the Exchange Act. Without limiting the manner
in which the  Purchasers may choose to make any public  announcement,  except as
provided by applicable law (including Rule 14d-4(c) under the Exchange Act), the
Purchasers   will  have  no  obligation  to  publish,   advertise  or  otherwise
communicate any such public announcement, other than by issuing a release to the
Dow Jones News Service. The Purchasers may also be required by applicable law to
disseminate to Unitholders certain information  concerning the extensions of the
Offer and any material changes in the terms of the Offer.

         If the  Purchasers  extend the  Offer,  or if the  Purchasers  (whether
before or after its  acceptance  for  payment  of Units)  are  delayed  in their
payment  for Units or are unable to pay for Units  pursuant to the Offer for any
reason,  then,  without prejudice to the Purchasers' rights under the Offer, the
Depositary may retain tendered Units on behalf of the Purchasers, and such Units
may not be withdrawn except to the extent tendering  Unitholders are entitled to
withdrawal  rights as  described  in  Section  4.  However,  the  ability of the
Purchasers  to delay  payment for Units that the  Purchasers  have  accepted for
payment is limited by Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, which requires that the
Purchasers pay the consideration  offered or return the securities  deposited by
or on behalf  of  holders  of  securities  promptly  after  the  termination  or
withdrawal of the Offer.

         If the Purchasers  make a material  change in the terms of the Offer or
the information concerning the Offer or waive a material condition of the Offer,
the Purchasers  will extend the Offer to the extent  required by Rules 14d-4(c),
14d-6(d) and 14e-1 under the Exchange  Act. The minimum  period  during which an
offer must remain open following a material  change in the terms of the offer or
information  concerning  the offer,  other than a change in price or a change in
percentage of securities  sought,  will depend upon the facts and circumstances,
including the relative  materiality  of the change in the terms or  information.
With respect to a change in price or a change in percentage of securities sought
(other than an increase of not more than 2% of the securities sought),  however,
a minimum ten business  day period is  generally  required to allow for adequate
dissemination  to security  holders and for investor  response.  As used in this
Offer to Purchase, "business day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or
a federal holiday, and consists of the time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00
midnight, Pacific Standard Time.

Section  6.  Certain Federal  Income Tax  Consequences.  THE FEDERAL  INCOME TAX
DISCUSSION SET FORTH BELOW IS INCLUDED HEREIN FOR GENERAL  INFORMATION  ONLY AND
DOES NOT PURPORT TO ADDRESS  ALL  ASPECTS OF TAXATION  THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO A
PARTICULAR UNITHOLDER.  For example, this discussion does not address the effect
of any applicable foreign, state, local or other tax

                                       11


<PAGE>



laws other than federal income tax laws. Certain Unitholders  (including trusts,
foreign persons,  tax-exempt  organizations  or corporations  subject to special
rules,  such as life insurance  companies or S  corporations)  may be subject to
special  rules not  discussed  below.  This  discussion is based on the Internal
Revenue  Code of 1986,  as amended (the  "Code"),  existing  regulations,  court
decisions and Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") rulings and other pronouncements.
EACH UNITHOLDER TENDERING UNITS SHOULD CONSULT SUCH UNITHOLDER'S OWN TAX ADVISOR
AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH UNITHOLDER OF ACCEPTING THE OFFER,
INCLUDING THE APPLICATION OF THE ALTERNATIVE  MINIMUM TAX AND FEDERAL,  FOREIGN,
STATE, LOCAL AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

         The  following   discussion  is  based  on  the  assumption   that  the
Partnership  is treated as a partnership  for federal income tax purposes and is
not a "publicly traded partnership" as that term is defined in the Code.

Gain or Loss. A taxable  Unitholder will recognize a gain or loss on the sale of
such  Unitholder's  Units in an amount equal to the  difference  between (i) the
amount  realized  by such  Unitholder  on the sale and  (ii)  such  Unitholder's
adjusted tax basis in the Units sold. The amount  realized by a Unitholder  will
include the  Unitholder's  share of the  Partnership's  liabilities,  if any (as
determined  under  Code  section  752 and the  regulations  thereunder).  If the
Unitholder  reports  a loss  on the  sale,  such  loss  generally  could  not be
currently  deducted by such Unitholder except against such Unitholder's  capital
gains  from  other  investments.  In  addition,  such loss would be treated as a
passive activity loss. (See "Suspended Passive Activity Losses" below.)

         The adjusted  tax basis in the Units of a  Unitholder  will depend upon
individual  circumstances.  (See also "Partnership  Allocations in Year of Sale"
below.) Each  Unitholder who plans to tender  hereunder  should consult with the
Unitholder's  own tax advisor as to the  Unitholder's  adjusted tax basis in the
Unitholder's Units and the resulting tax consequences of a sale.

         If any portion of the amount  realized by a Unitholder is  attributable
to  such  Unitholder's  share  of  "unrealized  receivables"  or  "substantially
appreciated  inventory  items" as defined in Code section  751, a  corresponding
portion of such  Unitholder's  gain or loss will be treated as ordinary  gain or
loss.  It is possible  that the basis  allocation  rules of Code Section 751 may
result in a Unitholder's recognizing ordinary income with respect to the portion
of the  Unitholder's  amount realized on the sale of a Unit that is attributable
to such items while  recognizing a capital loss with respect to the remainder of
the Unit.

         A tax-exempt  Unitholder (other than an organization  described in Code
Section  501(c)(7)  (social  club),   501(c)(9)   (voluntary   employee  benefit
association),   501(c)(17)   (supplementary   unemployment  benefit  trust),  or
501(c)(20)  (qualified  group legal  services  plan))  should not be required to
recognize unrelated trade or business income upon the sale of its Units pursuant
to the  Offer,  assuming  that  such  Unitholder  does not  hold its  Units as a
"dealer" and has not acquired such Units with debt financed proceeds.

Partnership  Allocations  in  Year  of  Sale.  A  tendering  Unitholder  will be
allocated  the  Unitholder's  pro rata  share of the annual  taxable  income and
losses  from the  Partnership  with  respect  to the Units  sold for the  period
through  the date of sale,  even  though  such  Unitholder  will  assign  to the
Purchasers  their rights to receive certain cash  distributions  with respect to
such Units.  Such allocations and any Partnership  distributions for such period
would  affect a  Unitholder's  adjusted  tax basis in the  tendered  Units  and,
therefore,  the amount of gain or loss  recognized by the Unitholder on the sale
of the Units.


                                       12


<PAGE>



Possible Tax  Termination.  The Code provides that if 50% or more of the capital
and profits  interests in a  partnership  are sold or exchanged  within a single
12-month period,  such  partnership  generally will terminate for federal income
tax purposes.  It is possible that the  Partnership  could terminate for federal
income  tax  purposes  as a result of  consummation  of the  Offer.  If so,  the
Partnership  will be treated as having  made a  liquidating  distribution  of an
undivided interest in all of its assets to the Unitholders,  the partners of the
Partnership after consummation of the Offer (i.e., the nontendering  Unitholders
and the Purchasers) would be treated as having  recontributed their interests in
Partnership assets to the Partnership,  and the capital accounts of all partners
would  be  restated.  A  Unitholder  would  recognize  gain  on the  liquidating
distribution  only to the extent that the amount of cash deemed  distributed  to
the Unitholder  exceeded the Unitholder's  basis in the Units.  Depending on the
Unitholders'  bases  in  their  Units  and the  Partnership's  tax  basis in its
property,  a tax  termination  could affect,  perhaps  adversely,  the amount of
depreciation deductions reported by the Partnership for the period following the
date of such  termination.  A tax termination of the Partnership also could have
the adverse  effect on  Unitholders  whose tax year is not the calendar year, of
the inclusion of more than one year of  Partnership  tax items in one tax return
of such  Unitholders,  resulting in a "bunching" of income.  In addition,  a tax
termination  could have the  adverse  effect on  non-tendering  Unitholders  who
subsequently  dispose  of  their  Units at a gain of  requiring  them to treat a
greater  portion of such gain as ordinary income (due to the application of Code
Section 735) than would  otherwise be required  absent a tax  termination of the
Partnership.

Suspended  "Passive  Activity  Losses".  A  Unitholder  who  sells  all  of  the
Unitholder's Units would be able to deduct  "suspended"  passive activity losses
from the  Partnership,  if any, in the year of sale free of the passive activity
loss limitation.  As a limited partner of the Partnership,  which was engaged in
real estate activities,  the ability of a Unitholder, who or which is subject to
the passive  activity loss rules,  to claim tax losses from the  Partnership was
limited.  Upon sale of all of the Unitholder's  Units,  such Unitholder would be
able to use any "suspended"  passive activity losses first against gain, if any,
on sale of the Unitholder's Units and then against income from any other source.

Foreign  Unitholders.  Gain realized by a foreign Unitholder on a sale of a Unit
pursuant to the Offer will be subject to federal  income tax. Under Section 1445
of the Code, the  transferee of a partnership  interest held by a foreign person
is  generally  required to deduct and  withhold a tax equal to 10% of the amount
realized on the  disposition.  The  Purchasers  will  withhold 10% of the amount
realized by a tendering Unitholder from the purchase price payment to be made to
such Unitholder  unless the Unitholder  properly  completes and signs the FIRPTA
Affidavit  included  as  part  of  the  Letter  of  Transmittal  certifying  the
Unitholder's  TIN,  that  such  Unitholder  is  not a  foreign  person  and  the
Unitholder's  address.  Amounts  withheld would be creditable  against a foreign
Unitholder's  federal income tax liability and, if in excess  thereof,  a refund
could be obtained from the Internal  Revenue Service by filing a U.S. income tax
return.

Section 7. Effects of the Offer.

Limitations on  Resales. The  Purchasers do  not believe  the provisions  of the
Partnership Agreement should restrict transfers of Units pursuant to the Offer.

Effect on Trading Market.  There is no established public trading market for the
Units  and,  therefore,  a  reduction  in the number of  Unitholders  should not
materially  further  restrict the  Unitholders'  ability to find  purchasers for
their Units on any secondary market.

                                       13

Voting  Power of  Purchasers.  Depending  on the  number of  Units  acquired  by
the  Purchasers  pursuant to the Offer,  the  Purchasers may have the ability to
exert certain  influence on matters subject to the vote of  Unitholders,  though
the maximum  number of Units sought  hereunder  would not give the  Purchasers a
controlling  voting  interest.  Furthermore,  affiliates of the General  Partner
control a substantial block of Units and would have greater voice in and vote of
Units than would the Purchasers.

Other Potential Effects.  The Units are registered under the Exchange Act, which
requires, among other things that the Partnership furnish certain information to
its  Unitholders  and to the Commission and comply with the  Commission's  proxy
rules in  connection  with  meetings  of, and  solicitation  of  consents  from,
Unitholders.  Registration and reporting requirements could be terminated by the
Partnership if the number of record holders falls below 300, or below 500 if the
Partnership's total assets are below $10 million for three consecutive preceding
fiscal years. The Partnership reported total assets in excess of $8.7 million as
of its most recent  fiscal  year end,  assets in excess of $13 million as of its
prior fiscal year end, and a total of 11,500  limited  partners.  Although it is
possible that the Offer could result in the purchase of all  outstanding  Units,
based on their  experience in conducting  offers of this type the  Purchasers do
not expect to acquire a number of Units  pursuant to the Offer that would reduce
the number of record Unit holders below 300. Accordingly,  the Purchasers do not
believe  that the  purchase  of Units  pursuant  to the Offer will result in the
Units becoming eligible for deregistration under the Exchange Act.

Section 8. Future Plans.  Following the completion of the Offer, the Purchasers,
or their affiliates,  may acquire additional Units. Any such acquisitions may be
made through private purchases, one or more future tender offers or by any other
means  deemed  advisable  or  appropriate.  Any  such  acquisitions  may be at a
consideration  higher or lower than the  consideration  to be paid for the Units
purchased  pursuant to the Offer.  The  Purchasers  are seeking to purchase  all
outstanding  Units.  If the Purchasers  acquire fewer than all Units pursuant to
the Offer, the Purchasers may seek to make further  purchases on the open market
at prevailing  prices,  or solicit  Units  pursuant to one or more future tender
offers at the same price, a higher price or, if the Partnership's  circumstances
change,  at a lower price.  Alternatively,  the Purchasers may  discontinue  any
further  purchases of Units after  termination  of the Offer,  regardless of the
number of Units purchased.

         The Purchasers are acquiring the Units pursuant to the Offer  primarily
for  investment  purposes.  Depending  on the  number  of Units  purchased,  the
Purchasers may seek control of the Partnership. The Purchasers reserve the right
to exercise their  discretion in all matters  subject to a limited partner vote,
including,  but not limited to, any vote to cause the sale of the  Partnership's
properties and the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership.

Section  9.  The  Business  of  the  Partnership.  Information  included  herein
concerning  the  Partnership  is derived from the  Partnership's  publicly-filed
reports and the filed  information  relating to the tender offer by an affiliate
of the General  Partner.  Information  concerning the  Partnership,  its assets,
operations  and  management is contained in its Annual  Reports on Form 10-K and
Quarterly  Reports  on Form  10-Q and  other  filings  with the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission.  Such reports and filings are available on the Commission's
EDGAR  system,  at its internet  website at  www.sec.gov,  and are available for
inspection at the Commission's  principal office in Washington,  D.C. and at its
regional  offices in New York,  New York and Chicago,  Illinois.  The Purchasers
have relied on such  information to the extent  information is presented  herein
concerning the Partnership,  and expressly  disclaim any  responsibility for the
information included in such reports and extracted in this Offer.

Section  10.  Conflicts   of  Interest.  The   Depositary  is   affiliated  with
certain Purchasers. Therefore, by virtue of this affiliation, the Depositary may
have inherent  conflicts of interest in acting as Depositary for the Offer.  The
Depositary's  role is  administrative  only, and any conflict of interest should
not be deemed material to Unit holders.

FRAME,  as individual  Purchasers,  have an aggregate net worth in excess of $30
million and liquid assets in excess of $10 million.

         Certain of the  Purchasers  and affiliates of certain of the Purchasers
currently own an aggregate  total of 4,312 Units or  approximately  1.31% of the
total  outstanding  Units.  Of these Units,  280 Units were acquired  during the
preceding six months,  80 Units at a price of $12 per Unit, and, within the most
recent month, 200 Units at a price of $15 per Unit.

         Except as otherwise set forth herein,  (i) neither the Purchasers  nor,
to the best  knowledge of the  Purchasers,  the persons listed on Schedule I nor
any affiliate of the Purchasers  beneficially owns or has a right to acquire any
Units, (ii) neither the Purchasers nor, to the best knowledge of the Purchasers,
the persons  listed on Schedule I nor any  affiliate of the  Purchasers,  or any
director,  executive  officer or subsidiary of any of the foregoing has effected
any  transaction  in the  Units  within  the past 60  days,  (iii)  neither  the
Purchasers nor, to the best knowledge of the  Purchasers,  the persons listed on
Schedule I nor any affiliate of the  Purchasers  has any contract,  arrangement,
understanding  or  relationship  with  any  other  person  with  respect  to any
securities  of  the  Partnership,  including  but  not  limited  to,  contracts,
arrangements,  understandings or relationships concerning the transfer or voting
thereof, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements,  puts or calls, guarantees
of loans,  guarantees  against  loss or the giving or  withholding  of  proxies,
consents or  authorizations,  (iv) there have been no  transactions  or business
relationships  which  would be  required  to be  disclosed  under  the rules and
regulations  of the  Commission  between any of the  Purchasers  or, to the best
knowledge of the Purchasers,  the persons listed on Schedule I, or any affiliate
of the Purchasers on the one hand, and the Partnership or its affiliates, on the
other hand, and (v) there have been no contracts,  negotiations  or transactions
between the Purchasers, or to the best knowledge of the Purchasers any affiliate
of the  Purchasers  on the one hand,  the persons  listed on Schedule I, and the
Partnership  or  its  affiliates,  on  the  other  hand,  concerning  a  merger,
consolidation or acquisition,  tender offer or other  acquisition of securities,
an election of  directors  or a sale or other  transfer of a material  amount of
assets.

Section 12. Source of Funds. The Purchasers expect that approximately $4,950,060
would be  required  to purchase  all  outstanding  Units,  if  tendered,  and an
additional  $35,000  may be  required  to pay  related  fees and  expenses.  The
Purchasers  anticipate  funding all of the purchase  price and related  expenses
through their existing liquid capital reserves.

Section  13.  Conditions  of the  Offer.  Notwithstanding  any other term of the
Offer,  the Purchasers shall not be required to accept for payment or to pay for
any Units tendered if all authorizations,  consents,  orders or approvals of, or
declarations  or filings with, or expirations of waiting periods imposed by, any
court,  administrative  agency or commission or other governmental  authority or
instrumentality,  domestic or foreign,  necessary  for the  consummation  of the
transactions  contemplated  by the Offer shall not have been filed,  occurred or
been obtained on or before the Expiration Date.

         The  Purchasers  shall not be required to accept for payment or pay for
any Units not theretofore  accepted for payment or paid for and may terminate or
amend  the  Offer as to such  Units  if, at any time on or after the date of the
Offer and before the Expiration Date, any of the following conditions exists:

                                       16


<PAGE>


         (a) a preliminary or permanent injunction or other order of any federal
or state court,  government or governmental  authority or agency shall have been

the acceptance for payment of or payment for any Units by the  Purchasers,  (ii)
imposes or confirms limitations on the ability of the Purchasers  effectively to
exercise full rights of ownership of any Units,  including,  without limitation,
the right to vote any Units acquired by the Purchasers  pursuant to the Offer or
otherwise on all matters properly  presented to the  Partnership's  Unitholders,
(iii)  requires  divestiture  by the  Purchasers  of any Units,  (iv) causes any
material  diminution of the benefits to be derived by the Purchasers as a result
of the transactions  contemplated by the Offer or (v) might materially adversely
affect the  business,  properties,  assets,  liabilities,  financial  condition,

Partnership;

         (b) there shall be any action taken, or any statute,  rule,  regulation
or order proposed, enacted, enforced,  promulgated,  issued or deemed applicable
to the Offer by any federal or state court, government or governmental authority
or agency,  other than the  application of the waiting period  provisions of the
Hart-Scott-Rodino  Antitrust  Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, which might,
directly or indirectly, result in any of the consequences referred to in clauses
(i) through (v) of paragraph (a) above;

         (c) any change or  development  shall have occurred or been  threatened
since  the  date  hereof,  in the  business,  properties,  assets,  liabilities,
financial  condition,  operations,  results of  operations  or  prospects of the
Partnership,  which, in the reasonable judgment of the Purchasers,  is or may be
materially adverse to the Partnership, or the Purchasers shall have become aware
of any fact that, in the reasonable judgment of the Purchasers, does or may have
a material adverse effect on the value of the Units;

         (d) there shall have occurred (i) any general suspension of trading in,
or limitation on prices for,  securities on any national  securities exchange or
in the  over-the-counter  market in the United  States,  (ii) a declaration of a

result in any  imposition  of  currency  controls in the United  States,  (iv) a
commencement  of a war or armed  hostilities or other national or  international
calamity  directly or  indirectly  involving the United  States,  (v) a material
change in United States or other  currency  exchange  rates or a suspension of a
limitation on the markets  thereof,  or (vi) in the case of any of the foregoing
existing at the time of the  commencement of the Offer, a material  acceleration
or worsening thereof; or

         (e) it shall have been publicly  disclosed or the Purchasers shall have
otherwise learned that (i) more than fifty percent of the outstanding Units have
been or are  proposed  to be  acquired by another  person  (including  a "group"
within the meaning of Section  13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or (ii) any person
or group  that  prior to such date had  filed a  Statement  with the  Commission
pursuant to Sections  13(d) or (g) of the Exchange Act has increased or proposes
to increase  the number of Units  beneficially  owned by such person or group as
disclosed in such Statement by two percent or more of the outstanding Units.

         The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of the Purchasers and
may be asserted by the Purchasers regardless of the circumstances giving rise to
such  conditions  or may be waived by the  Purchasers in whole or in part at any
time and from time to time in their  sole  discretion.  Any  termination  by the
Purchasers  concerning the events described above will be final and binding upon
all parties.

Section 14. Certain Legal Matters.

General. Except as set forth in this Section 14, the Purchasers are not aware of
any filings,  approvals or other actions by any domestic or foreign governmental
or  administrative  agency that would be required  prior to the  acquisition  of
Units by the Purchasers pursuant to the Offer. Should any such approval or other
action be required, it is the Purchasers' present intention that such additional
approval or action  would be sought.  While there is no present  intent to delay
the purchase of Units tendered pursuant to the Offer pending receipt of any such
additional approval or the taking of any such action,  there can be no assurance
that any such  additional  approval  or  action,  if needed,  would be  obtained
without substantial  conditions or that adverse consequences might not result to
the Partnership's  business, or that certain parts of the Partnership's business
might  not  have  to be  disposed  of or  held  separate  or  other  substantial
conditions  complied  with in order to obtain such  approval  or action,  any of
which  could  cause the  Purchasers  to elect to  terminate  the  Offer  without
purchasing Units thereunder.  The Purchasers' obligation to purchase and pay for
Units is subject  to certain  conditions,  including  conditions  related to the
legal matters discussed in this Section 14.

Antitrust.   The   Purchasers   do  not   believe  that   the  Hart-Scott-Rodino
Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, is applicable to the acquisition
of Units pursuant to the Offer.

Margin Requirements. The Units are not "margin securities" under the regulations
of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and,  accordingly,  such
regulations are not applicable to the Offer.

State  Takeover Laws. A number of states have adopted  anti-takeover  laws which
purport,  to varying degrees, to be applicable to attempts to acquire securities
of corporations  which are incorporated in such states or which have substantial
assets,  security  holders,  principal  executive offices or principal places of
business therein. These laws are directed at the acquisition of corporations and
not  partnerships.   The  Purchasers,   therefore,   do  not  believe  that  any
anti-takeover laws apply to the transactions contemplated by the Offer.

         Although  the  Purchasers  have not  attempted to comply with any state
anti-takeover  statutes in connection with the Offer, the Purchasers reserve the
right to challenge  the  validity or  applicability  of any state law  allegedly
applicable  to the Offer and  nothing  in this  Offer  nor any  action  taken in
connection  herewith  is  intended  as a  waiver  of such  right.  If any  state
anti-takeover statute is applicable to the Offer, the Purchasers might be unable
to accept for payment or  purchase  Units  tendered  pursuant to the Offer or be
delayed in continuing or  consummating  the Offer.  In such case, the Purchasers
may not be obligated to accept for purchase or pay for any Units tendered.

Section 15. Fees and Expenses. The Purchasers have retained MacKenzie Patterson,
Inc.,  an affiliate of certain  Purchasers,  to act as  Depositary in connection
with the Offer. The Purchasers will pay the Depositary  reasonable and customary
compensation for its services in connection with the Offer,  plus  reimbursement
for out-of-pocket  expenses,  and will indemnify the Depositary  against certain
liabilities and expenses in connection  therewith,  including  liabilities under
the federal securities laws. The Purchasers will also pay all costs and expenses
of printing, publication and mailing of the Offer and all costs of transfer.


                                       18

Section 16.  Miscellaneous. THE  OFFER  IS NOT BEING  MADE TO  (NOR WILL TENDERS
BE ACCEPTED FROM OR ON BEHALF OF)  UNITHOLDERS IN ANY  JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE
MAKING OF THE OFFER OR THE  ACCEPTANCE  THEREOF WOULD NOT BE IN COMPLIANCE  WITH
THE LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION.  THE PURCHASERS ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY JURISDICTION
WITHIN  THE  UNITED  STATES IN WHICH THE  MAKING OF THE OFFER OR THE  ACCEPTANCE
THEREOF WOULD BE ILLEGAL.

         No person has been  authorized to give any  information  or to make any
representation on behalf of the Purchasers not contained herein or in the Letter
of Transmittal  and, if given or made, such information or  representation  must
not be relied upon as having been authorized.

          The person  signing this Letter of  Transmittal  hereby  certifies the
following to the Purchasers under penalties of perjury:

                  (i) The TIN set  forth in the  signature  box on the  front of
this Letter of Transmittal is the correct TIN of the Unitholder,  or if this box
[ ] is checked,  the  Unitholder  has applied for a TIN. If the  Unitholder  has

the  Unitholder  has mailed or delivered an  application to receive a TIN to the
appropriate  IRS Center or Social  Security  Administration  Office,  or (b) the
Unitholder  intends  to mail or deliver an  application  in the near  future (it
being understood that if the Unitholder does not provide a TIN to the Purchasers
within sixty (60) days,  31% of all  reportable  payments made to the Unitholder
thereafter will be withheld until a TIN is provided to the Purchasers); and

                  (ii)  Unless this box [ ] is checked,  the  Unitholder  is not
subject to backup withholding either because the Unitholder:  (a) is exempt from
backup withholding,  (b) has not been notified by the IRS that the Unitholder is
subject to backup  withholding  as result of a failure to report all interest or
dividends, or (c) has been notified by the IRS that such Unitholder is no longer
subject to backup withholding.

     Note: Place an "X" in the box in (ii) if you are unable to certify that the
Unitholder is not subject to backup withholding.

          Under Section  1445(e)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code and Treas. Reg.
1.1445-11T(d),  a  transferee  must  withhold  tax  equal  to 10% of the  amount
realized with respect to certain  transfers of an interest in a  partnership  if
50% or more of the value of its gross  assets  consists  of U.S.  real  property
interests and 90% or more of the value of its gross assets consists of U.S. real
property  interests  plus cash  equivalents,  and the holder of the  partnership
interest is a foreign  person.  To inform the Purchasers  that no withholding is
required  with  respect to the  Unitholder's  interest in the  Partnership,  the
person signing this Letter of Transmittal  hereby  certifies the following under
penalties of perjury;
                  (i) Unless  this box [ ] is  checked,  the  Unitholder,  if an
individual,  is a U.S.  citizen or a resident alien for purposes of U.S.  income
taxation, and if other than an individual, is not a foreign corporation, foreign
partnership,  foreign estate or foreign trust (as those terms are defined in the
Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax  Regulations);  (ii) the Unitholder's  U.S.
social security number (for individuals) or employer  identification number (for


                                        3

non-individuals)  is correctly  printed  in  the  signature box  on the front of
this  Letter of  Transmittal;  and  (iii) the  Unitholder's  home  address  (for
individuals), or office address (for non-individuals),  is correctly printed (or
corrected) on the front of this Letter of  Transmittal.  If a  corporation,  the
jurisdiction of incorporation is ----------.

          The person  signing this Letter of Transmittal  understands  that this
certification  may be disclosed to the IRS by the  Purchasers and that any false
statements contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

          By  checking  this  box  [  ],  the  person  signing  this  Letter  of
Transmittal  hereby  certifies under penalties of perjury that the Unitholder is
an "exempt  foreign person" for purposes of the backup  withholding  rules under
the U.S. federal income tax laws, because the Unitholder:

     (i)   Is  a  nonresident   alien   individual  or  a  foreign  corporation,
           partnership,  estate or trust;

     (ii)  If  an  individual, has not  been and  plans not to be present in the
           U.S. for a total of 183 days or more  during the  calendar  year; and

     (iii) Neither  engages,  nor plans to engage,  in a U.S.  trade or business
           that has effectively connected gains from  transactions with a broker
           or barter exchange.

must  sign  at the "X" on the  bottom  of the  first  page  of  this  Letter  of
Transmittal and insert the Unitholder's correct Taxpayer  Identification  Number
or Social Security Number ("TIN") in the space provided below the signature. The
signature  must  correspond  exactly with the name printed (or corrected) on the
front of this  Letter of  Transmittal  without  any change  whatsoever.  If this
Letter of  Transmittal  is signed by the  registered  Unitholder  of the Units a
Medallion  signature  guarantee  on this  Letter  of  Transmittal  is  required.
Similarly,  if  Units  are  tendered  for  the  account  of a  member  firm of a
registered national security exchange, a member firm of the National Association
of Securities  Dealers,  Inc. or a commercial bank,  savings bank, credit union,
savings and loan association or trust company having an office, branch or agency
in the United  States (each an "Eligible  Institution"),  a Medallion  signature
guarantee  is  required.  In all  other  cases,  signatures  on this  Letter  of
Transmittal  must  be  Medallion  guaranteed  by  an  Eligible  Institution,  by
completing  the  Signature  guarantee  set  forth  in BOX A of  this  Letter  of
Transmittal.  If any tendered  Units are  registered in the names of two or more
joint holders,  all such holders must sign this Letter of  Transmittal.  If this
Letter  of  Transmittal  is  signed  by  trustees,  administrators,   guardians,
attorneys-in-fact,  officers of corporations, or others acting in a fiduciary or
representative  capacity,  such persons should so indicate when signing and must
submit proper  evidence  satisfactory to the Purchasers of their authority to so
act. For Units to be validly  tendered,  a properly  completed and duly executed

     2. Transfer Taxes. The Purchasers will pay or cause to be paid all transfer
taxes, if any,  payable in respect of Units accepted for payment pursuant to the
Offer.

     3. U.S.  Persons.  A Unitholder  who or which is a United States citizen or
resident alien individual,  a domestic corporation,  a domestic  partnership,  a
domestic trust or a domestic estate  (collectively  "United States  persons") as
those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations,
should complete the following:

         Box B - Substitute  Form W-9. In order to avoid 31% federal  income tax
         backup  withholding,  the Unitholder must provide to the Purchasers the
         Unitholder's correct Taxpayer  Identification Number or Social Security
         Number  ("TIN")  in the space  provided  below the  signature  line and
         certify,  under  penalties  of  perjury,  that such  Unitholder  is not
         subject to such  backup  withholding.  The TIN that must be provided is
         that of the registered Unitholder indicated on the front of this Letter
         of  Transmittal.  If a correct TIN is not  provided,  penalties  may be
         imposed by the Internal  Revenue  Service  ("IRS"),  in addition to the
         Unitholder  being subject to backup  withholding.  Certain  Unitholders
         (including,  among others,  all corporations) are not subject to backup
         withholding.   Backup   withholding  is  not  an  additional   tax.  If
         withholding  results  in an  overpayment  of  taxes,  a  refund  may be
         obtained from the IRS.

         Box C -  FIRPTA  Affidavit.  To  avoid  potential  withholding  of  tax
         pursuant to Section 1445 of the Internal  Revenue Code, each Unitholder
         who or which is a United States Person (as defined Instruction 3 above)
         must certify,  under  penalties of perjury,  the  Unitholder's  TIN and
         address,  and that the Unitholder is not a foreign person. Tax withheld
         under  Section 1445 of the Internal  Revenue Code is not an  additional
         tax. If  withholding  results in an overpayment of tax, a refund may be
         obtained from the IRS.

     4. Box D -  Foreign  Persons.  In order for a  Unitholder  who is a foreign
person  (i.e.,  not a United  States Person as defined in 3 above) to qualify as
exempt from 31% backup withholding,  such foreign Unitholder must certify, under
penalties  of perjury,  the  statement  in BOX D of this  Letter of  Transmittal
attesting to that foreign  person's  status by checking the box  preceding  such
statement.  However,  such  person will be subject to  withholding  of tax under
Section 1445 of the Code.

     5. Additional Copies of Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal.
Requests for  assistance or additional  copies of the Offer to Purchase and this
Letter  of   Transmittal   may  be  obtained  from  the  Purchasers  by  calling

Dear Unit Holder:

As  described  in  the  enclosed  Offer  to  Purchase  and  related  Letters  of
Transmittal  (the "Offer"),  The Purchasers are offering to purchase any and all
outstanding  Units of limited  partnership  interest  (the "Units") in RESOURCES
ACCRUED MORTGAGE INVESTORS L.P. - Series 86, a Delaware limited  partnership(the
"Partnership") at a purchase price equal to:

                                  $15 per Unit

The Purchasers are in the business of acquiring real estate  securities  such as
units of the  Partnership  with the view of holding such securities for the long
term.  Management of the  Partnership has given no indication of when and if the
Partnership may liquidate and make distributions to partners,  so the Purchasers
assume that the assets will be held and operated for the indefinite  future,  at
least for the next several  years.  Based upon the limited amount of information
available  to the  Purchasers,  we  believe  that the  prospects  for long  term
appreciation of the Partnership's assets is good, and because the Purchasers are
prepared  to  hold  the  Units  indefinitely,  we  believe  that  units  in  the
Partnership represent an attractive investment.

         We  recognize  that  partners in the  Partnership  may not wish to hold
         their investment for an indefinite  period in order to realize a higher
         value  than the $15 we are  offering.  If you  count  yourself  in this
         group, please avail yourself of the opportunity to sell.

The  Purchasers  are  interested  in  owning  any or all  of the  assets  in the
Partnership.  In the month of October,  we contacted the general partners of the
Partnership  indicating  that  we  were  interested  in  purchasing  the  entire
Partnership  and orally  offered to  purchase  the general  partner  interest in
conjunction with an offer to all partners to purchase their units.

         In  spite of our  offer to work  with  the  existing  general  partners
         towards the ultimate  liquidation  of the  Partnership's  properties at
         values  well above those  values  previously  estimated  by the general
         partners,  the general partners advised us that they had no interest in
         entertaining  any offer,  and we  received  no  response to our written
         proposal.

Thus, the Purchasers  have  determined that we must go directly to the investors
to allow the Partners to  determine  for  themselves  whether they would like to
liquidate  their  investment now rather than at some unknown point in the future
chosen at the discretion of the general partners. The general partner advised us
that they believe  they are doing a good job  managing  the assets,  though they
have  failed  to make  regular  distributions  to  Partners  and  have  given no
indication  as to when they might wind up the  business of the  Partnership  and
liquidate.

The Offer will provide you with an  opportunity  to liquidate  all, or a portion
of, your  investment in RESOURCES  ACCRUED  MORTGAGE  INVESTORS L.P. - Series 86
without the usual  transaction costs associated with market sales or partnership
transfer fees.

After  carefully  reading the enclosed Offer, if you elect to tender your Units,
mail (using the enclosed  pre-addressed,  postage  paid  envelope) or telecopy a
duly completed and executed copy of the Letter of Transmittal  (the purple form)
and Change of Address forms,  and any other documents  required by the Letter of
Transmittal, to the Depositary for the Offer at:

The Offer  will expire  at 12:00  midnight,  Pacific  Standard Time  on December
3, 1999,  unless and until  Purchasers,  in their  sole  discretion,  shall have
extended the period of time for which the Offer is open (such date and time,  as
extended the  "Expiration  Date").  If Purchasers  make a material change in the
terms  of the  Offer,  or if  they  waive a  material  condition  to the  Offer,
Purchasers  will  extend  the  Offer and  disseminate  additional  tender  offer
materials  to the extent  required  by Rules  14d-4(c)  and  14d-6(d)  under the
Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange  Act").  The minimum
period during which an offer must remain open  following any material  change in
the terms of the Offer,  other than a change in price or a change in  percentage
of  securities  sought or a change in any dealer's  soliciting  fee, will depend
upon the facts and  circumstances  including the  materiality of the change with
respect to a change in price or, subject to certain limitations, a change in the
percentage of  securities  ought or a change in any dealer's  soliciting  fee. A
minimum of ten business days from the date of such change is generally  required
to allow for adequate dissemination to Unitholders. Accordingly, if prior to the
Expiration Date,  Purchasers increase (other than increases of not more than two
percent of the outstanding  Units) or decrease the number of Units being sought,
or increase or decrease the consideration  offered pursuant to the Offer, and if
the Offer is scheduled  to expire at any time earlier than the period  ending on
the tenth business day from the date that notice of such increase or decrease is
first  published,  sent or given to  Unitholders,  the Offer will be extended at
least until the expiration of such ten business days. For purposes of the Offer,
a "business day" means any day other than a Saturday,  Sunday or federal holiday
and consists of the time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00 midnight,  Pacific
Standard  Time.  In all cases  payment for the Units  purchased  pursuant to the
Offer will be made only after timely receipt of the Letters of  Transmittal  (or
facsimiles  thereof),  properly  completed and duly executed,  with any required
signature  guarantees,  and any other  documents  required  by such  Letters  of
Transmittal.

     Tenders of Units made  pursuant to the Offer are  irrevocable,  except that
Unitholders  who tender their Units in response to the Offer will have the right
to withdraw their  tendered  Units at any time prior to the  Expiration  Date by
sending a written or facsimile  transmission  notice of withdrawal to Purchasers
specifying  the name of the person who  tendered the Units to be  withdrawn.  In
addition,  tendered  Units may be withdrawn  at any time on or after  January 2,
2000,  unless the tender has  theretofore  been accepted for payment as provided
above.  The  terms of the Offer are more  fully set forth in the  formal  Tender
Offer  Documents which are available from  Purchasers.  The Offer contains terms
and conditions and the information required by Rule  14d-6(e)(1)(vii)  under the
Exchange Act which are incorporated herein by reference.
