                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

l.       GENERAL

         The accompanying financial statements,  notes and discussions should be
         read in conjunction  with the financial  statements,  related notes and
         discussions  contained in the Partnership's  annual report on Form l0-K
         for the year ended  December 3l, 1995.  The December 31, 1995  year-end
         balance sheet data presented herein was derived from audited  financial
         statements,  but does not include all disclosures required by generally
         accepted accounting principles.

         The financial  information  contained herein is unaudited;  however, in
         the  opinion  of  management,  all  adjustments  necessary  for a  fair
         presentation of such financial  information  have been included.  Other
         than  the  write-down  for  impairment,   all  of  the   aforementioned
         adjustments are of normal  recurring nature and there have not been any
         non-recurring  adjustments  included  in the results  reported  for the
         current period.

2.       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Impairment of Assets

         In  March  1995,  the  Financial   Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
         Statement # 121,  "Accounting  for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets
         and for Long-Lived  Assets to Be Disposed of" ("SFAS # 121").  Although
         the  adoption of the  statement  was not  required  until  fiscal years
         beginning  after December 15, 1995, the  Partnership  implemented  SFAS
         #121 for the year ended December 31, 1995.

         Under SFAS #121 the initial test to determine if an  impairment  exists
         is to compute the recoverability of the asset based on anticipated cash
         flows (net realizable  value) compared to the net carrying value of the
         asset.  If  anticipated  cash  flows  on  an  undiscounted   basis  are
         insufficient  to  recover  the net  carrying  value  of the  asset,  an
         impairment loss should be recognized, and the asset written down to its
         estimated  fair  value.  The fair  value of the asset is the  amount by
         which  the  asset  could be  bought  or sold in a  current  transaction
         between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation
         sale.  The net  realizable  value of an asset will generally be greater
         than its fair value because net realizable value does not discount cash
         flows  to  present  value  and   discounting  is  usually  one  of  the
         assumptions used in determining fair value.

         Upon  implementation of SFAS #121, certain of the Partnership's  assets
         have been written  down to their  estimated  fair values,  while others
         remain  at  depreciated  cost.  Thus,  the net  carrying  value  of the
         Partnership's  asset  portfolio  may  differ  materially  from its fair
         value.  However,  the  write-downs for impairment do not affect the tax
         basis  of the  assets  and  the  write-downs  are not  included  in the
         determination of taxable income or loss.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

         Because the  determination  of both net realizable value and fair value
         is based upon  projections of future  economic  events such as property
         occupancy  rates,  rental rates,  operating  cost  inflation and market
         capitalization  rates  which are  inherently  subjective,  the  amounts
         ultimately  realized at disposition may differ  materially from the net
         carrying  value as of the balance  sheet  date.  The cash flows used to
         determine fair value and net  realizable  value are based on good faith
         estimates  and   assumptions   developed  by  management.   Inevitably,
         unanticipated  events and  circumstances may occur and some assumptions
         may not  materialize;  therefore  actual  results  may  vary  from  the
         estimates  and the  variances  may be  material.  The  Partnership  may
         provide  additional  losses in  subsequent  periods if the real  estate
         market or local economic  conditions  change and such write-downs could
         be material.

         Certain  reclassifications  were  made  to  the  prior  year  financial
         statements in order to conform them to the current period presentation.

3.       CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

         The  Investment  General  Partner of the  Partnership,  Resources  High
         Equity, Inc. and the Administrative General Partner of the Partnership,
         Resources  Capital Corp.,  were,  until November 3, 1994,  wholly-owned
         subsidiaries  of Integrated  Resources,  Inc.  ("Integrated")  at which
         time,  pursuant  to the  consummation  of the  plan of  reorganization,
         substantially  all of the assets of  Integrated  were sold to  Presidio
         Capital Corp., a British Virgin Islands  corporation  ("Presidio")  and
         the Investment General Partner and the  Administrative  General Partner
         (the "General  Partners") became wholly owned subsidiaries of Presidio.
         Presidio AGP Corp.,  which is a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of Presidio,
         became the Associate  General  Partner on February 28, 1995,  replacing
         Second  Group  Partners  which  withdrew  as of that date.  The General
         Partners  and  affiliates  of the General  Partners are also engaged in
         businesses  related to the  acquisition  and  operation of real estate.
         Presidio  is also the parent of other  corporations  that are or may in
         the future be engaged in businesses that may be in competition with the
         Partnership.  Accordingly,  conflicts of interest may arise between the
         Partnership  and  such  other   businesses.   Wexford   Management  LLC
         ("Wexford"),  has been  engaged to perform  administrative  services to
         Presidio  and  its  direct  and  indirect  subsidiaries  as well as the
         Partnership.   During  the  three  months  ended  September  30,  1996,
         reimbursable  expenses  to  Wexford  amounted  to  $25,500.  Wexford is
         engaged to perform similar services for other similar entities that may
         be in competition with the Partnership.

         The  Partnership  has  entered  into  a  property  management  services
         agreement  with  Resources  Supervisory  Management  Corp.  ("Resources
         Supervisory"), an affiliate of the General Partners, to perform certain
         functions   relating  to  the  management  of  the  properties  of  the
         Partnership.  A portion of the  property  management  fees were paid to

3.       CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (CONTINUED)

         unaffiliated  management companies which are engaged for the purpose of
         performing certain of the management  functions for certain properties.
         For  the  quarters  ended  September  30,  1996  and  1995,   Resources
         Supervisory was entitled to receive $89,988 and $77,958,  respectively,
         of  which  $67,521  and  $43,084  was paid to  unaffiliated  management
         companies. These fees have been paid in the subsequent quarters.

         For the administration of the Partnership,  the Administrative  General
         Partner is entitled to receive  reimbursement  of expenses of a maximum
         of $200,000 per year (exclusive of the administrative  expenses paid to
         Wexford).  The  Administrative  General Partner was entitled to receive
         $50,000  for each of the  quarters  ended  September  30, 1996 and 1995
         which was paid in the subsequent quarters.

         For managing the affairs of the Partnership, the Administrative General
         Partner is entitled to receive an annual  partnership  asset management
         fee equal to 1.05% of the amount of  original  gross  proceeds  paid or
         allocable to the acquisition of property by the  Partnership.  For each
         of the quarters ended  September 30, 1996 and 1995, the  Administrative
         General  Partner  earned  $351,551  which  was  paid in the  subsequent
         quarters.

         The  general  partners  are  allocated  5% of  the  net  income  of the
         Partnership  which  amounted to $37,797  and  $27,068 for the  quarters
         ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. They are also entitled
         to receive 5% of  distributions  which  amounted to $19,188 for each of
         the quarters ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.

         During the liquidation stage of the Partnership, the Investment General
         Partner or an affiliate  may be entitled to receive  certain fees which
         are  subordinated  to the limited  partners  receiving  their  original
         invested  capital  and  certain  specified  minimum  returns  on  their
         investment.

         During July 1996 through October 1996,  Millenium  Funding III Corp., a
         wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Presidio,  purchased 2,285 units of
         the  Partnership  from  various  limited   partners.   These  purchases
         represent less than .4% of the outstanding limited partnership units of
         the Partnership.

4.       REAL ESTATE

         Management recorded  write-downs for impairment totaling $23,769,050 in
         the  first  quarter  of 1995  pursuant  to  adoption  of  SFAS  #121 as
         discussed in Note 2. No  write-downs  were recorded for the nine months
         ended September 30, 1996.

 7.      COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

a)       568 Broadway Joint Venture is currently  involved in litigation  with a
         number of present or former  tenants  who are in default on their lease
         obligations. Several of these tenants have asserted claims or counter
         claims seeking monetary damages.  The plaintiffs'  allegations  include
         but are not  limited  to claims  for  breach of  contract,  failure  to
         provide certain services,  overcharging of expenses and loss of profits
         and income.  These suits seek total damages of in excess of $20 million
         plus additional  damages of an indeterminate  amount.  The 568 Broadway
         Joint  Venture's  action for rent  against Solo Press was tried in 1992
         and resulted in a judgement in favor of the 568 Broadway  Joint Venture
         for rent owed. The  Partnership  believes this will result in dismissal
         of the action  brought by Solo Press  against  the 568  Broadway  Joint
         Venture.  Since the facts of the other actions  which involve  material
         claims or  counterclaims  are  substantially  similar,  the Partnership
         believes  that the 568  Broadway  Joint  Venture  will prevail in those
         actions as well.

b)       A former  retail  tenant  of 568  Broadway  (Galix  Shops,  Inc.) and a
         related  corporation which is a retail tenant of a building adjacent to
         568 Broadway  filed a lawsuit in the Supreme  Court of the State of New
         York, County of New York, against the Broadway Joint Venture which owns
         568 Broadway.  The action was filed on April 13, 1994.  The  plaintiffs
         allege that by erecting a sidewalk shed in 1991, 568 Broadway  deprived
         plaintiffs  of  light,  air and  visibility  to  their  customers.  The
         sidewalk shed was erected, as required by local law, in connection with
         the inspection and  restoration  of the 568 Broadway  building  facade,
         which is also required by local law. Plaintiffs further allege that the
         erection of the sidewalk shed for a continuous period of over two years
         is unreasonable and unjustified and that such conduct by defendants has
         deprived  plaintiffs  of the use and enjoyment of their  property.  The
         suit  seeks  a  judgment   requiring  removal  of  the  sidewalk  shed,
         compensatory  damages  of $20  million,  and  punitive  damages  of $10
         million.  The  Partnership  believes  that this suit is  meritless  and
         intends to vigorously defend it.

 7.      COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

c)       On or about May 11, 1993 the  Partnership  was advised of the existence
         of an action  (the "B&S  Litigation")  in which a  complaint  (the "HEP
         Complaint") was filed in the Superior Court for the State of California
         for the County of Los  Angeles  (the  "Court") on behalf of a purported
         class  consisting  of all  of the  purchasers  of  limited  partnership
         interests in the Partnership.

         On April 7, 1994 the  plaintiffs  were granted leave to file an amended
         complaint (the "Amended  Complaint").  The Amended  Complaint  asserted
         claims  against the General  Partners of the  Partnership,  the general
         partners of HEP-85,  the managing general partner of HEP-88 and certain
         officers of the Administrative  and Investment  General Partner,  among
         others.  The Investment  General  Partner of the  Partnership is also a
         general partner of HEP-85 and HEP-88.

         On July 19, 1995, the Court preliminarily  approved a settlement of the
         B&S  Litigation  and  approved  the  form of a  notice  (the  "Notice")
         concerning  such  proposed  settlement.  In  response  to  the  Notice,
         approximately   1.1%  of  the   limited   partners  of  the  three  HEP
         partnerships  (representing  approximately  4%  of  outstanding  units)
         requested exclusion and 15 limited partners filed written objections to
         the settlement.  The California  Department of Corporations also sent a
         letter to the Court opposing the  settlement.  Five  objecting  limited
         partners,  represented by two law firms, also made motions to intervene
         so they could  participate more directly in the action.  The motions to
         intervene  were granted by the Court on September  14, 1995. In October
         and  November  1995,  the  attorneys  for  the   plaintiffs-intervenors
         conducted extensive discovery.  At the same time, there were continuing
         negotiations concerning possible revisions to the proposed settlement.

         On November  30,  1995,  the original  plaintiffs  and the  intervening
         plaintiffs filed a Consolidated  Class and Derivative  Action Complaint
         ("Consolidated  Complaint")  against the  Administrative and Investment
         General Partners,  the managing general partner of HEP-85, the managing
         general  partner of HEP-88  and the  indirect  corporate  parent of the
         General  Partners,  alleging  various  state law  class and  derivative
         claims,  including  claims for breach of  fiduciary  duties;  breach of
         contract;  unfair and fraudulent  business  practices under  California
         Bus. & Prof.  Code Sec.  17200;  negligence;  dissolution,  accounting,
         receivership,  and removal of general  partner;  fraud;  and  negligent
         misrepresentation.  The  Consolidated  Complaint  alleges,  among other
         things,  that the general  partners  caused a waste of HEP  Partnership
         assets by  collecting  fees in lieu of  pursuing a strategy to maximize
         the value of the investments  owned by the limited  partners;  that the
         general  partners  breached  their duty of loyalty  and due care to the
         limited partners by expropriating management fees from the partnerships
         without trying to run the HEP  Partnerships  for the purposes for which
         they are intended;  that the general partners are acting  improperly to
         enrich   themselves   in  their   position  of  control  over  the  HEP
         Partnerships  and that their actions  prevent  non-affiliated  entities

         from making and  completing  tender offers to purchase HEP  Partnership
         Units;  that by  refusing  to seek  the  sale of the HEP  Partnerships'
         properties,  the  general  partners  have  diminished  the value of the
         limited  partners'  equity in the HEP  Partnerships;  that the  general
         partners have taken a heavily  overvalued  partnership asset management
         fee; and that limited  partnership units were sold and marketed through
         the use of false and misleading statements.

         On or about January,  1996, the parties to the B & S Litigation  agreed
         upon a revised settlement,  which would be significantly more favorable
         to  limited  partners  than the  previously  proposed  settlement.  The
         revised settlement proposal,  like the previous proposal,  involves the
         reorganization  of (i) HEP-85,  (ii) the Partnership  and, (iii) HEP-88
         (collectively,  the  "HEP  Partnerships"),  through  an  exchange  (the
         "Exchange") in which limited partners (the  "Participating  Investors")
         of the partnerships  participating in the Exchange (the  "Participating
         Partnerships")  would receive,  in exchange for the partnership  units,
         shares  of  common  stock  ("Shares")  of a  newly-formed  corporation,
         Millennium Properties Inc. ("Millennium") which intends to qualify as a
         real  estate  investment  trust.  Such  reorganization  would  only  be
         effected  with  respect  to a  particular  Partnership  if holders of a
         majority of the outstanding  units of that Partnership  consent to such
         reorganization  pursuant  to  a  Consent  Solicitation  Statement  (the
         "Consent  Solicitation  Statement")  which would be sent to all limited
         partners after the  settlement is approved by the Court.  In connection
         with the Exchange,  Participating  Investors  would  receive  Shares of
         Millennium in exchange for their limited  partnership units.  84.65% of
         the  Shares  would  be  allocated  to  Participating  Investors  in the
         aggregate  (assuming  each  of  the  partnerships  participate  in  the
         Exchange)  and 15.35% of the Shares  would be  allocated to the general
         partners in consideration of the general partners'  existing  interests
         in the Participating Partnerships,  their relinquishment of entitlement
         to receive  fees and  expense  reimbursements,  and the  payment by the
         general partners of an affiliate of certain amounts for legal fees.

         As part of the Exchange, Shares issued to Participating Investors would
         be accompanied by options  granting such Investors the right to require
         an affiliate of the general  partners to purchase  Shares at a price of
         $11.50 per Share,  exercisable during the three month period commencing
         nine months after the effective date of the Exchange.  A maximum of 1.5
         million Shares  (representing  approximately  17.7% of the total Shares
         issued to investors if all partnerships  participate) would be required
         to be purchased if all partnerships  participate in the Exchange.  Also
         as part of the Exchange,  the indirect  parent of the General  Partners
         would agree that in the event that  dividends  paid with respect to the
         Shares do not  aggregate  at least  $1.10 per Share for the first  four
         complete fiscal quarters  following the Effective Date, it would make a
         supplemental  payment to  holders of such  Shares in the amount of such
         difference.  The general partners or an affiliate would also provide an
         amount,  not to exceed $2,232,500 in the aggregate,  for the payment of
         attorneys' fees and reimbursable expenses of class counsel, as approved
         by the Court,  and the costs of providing notice to the class (assuming

 7.      COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

         that all three Partnerships  participate in the Exchange). In the event
         that fewer than all of the  Partnerships  participate  in the Exchange,
         such amount would be reduced. The general partners would advance to the
         Partnerships  the amounts  necessary to cover such fees and expenses of
         the Exchange (but not their  litigation  costs and expenses,  which the
         general  partners would bear).  Upon the  effectuation of the Exchange,
         the B & S Litigation would be dismissed with prejudice.

         On  February  8, 1996,  at a hearing  on  preliminary  approval  of the
         revised  settlement,  the  Court  determined  that in light of  renewed
         objections  to  the   settlement  by  the   California   Department  of
         Corporations, the Court would appoint a securities litigation expert to
         evaluate  the  settlement..  The Court stated that it would rule on the
         issue of  preliminary  approval of the settlement  after  receiving the
         expert's report.  On May 6, 1996, the expert submitted a report stating
         that he was unable to conclude that the revised  settlement as proposed
         is fair,  reasonable and adequate,  and  recommending  that the revised
         settlement  be  restructured  so as to  allocate  Shares to the general
         partners based solely on the value of their 5% equity  interests in the
         Partnerships,  that the  allocation  of Shares be based on  independent
         appraisals   of  all  of  the   Partnerships'   properties,   and  that
         Participating Investors be provided with dissenters' rights. On May 28,
         1996, at a hearing in connection  with the expert's  report,  the Court
         ordered the parties to brief certain  valuation  issues,  the requisite
         consents required from limited partners to approve the Exchange and the
         applicability  of  exemptions  from  the  California   securities  law.
         Thereafter, in response to the expert's report, the proposed settlement
         was  further  revised  to  require  independent  appraisals  of all the
         Partnerships'  properties and to provide  Participating  Investors with
         dissenters'  rights,  which would entitle  Participating  Investors who
         elected dissenters' rights to receive, as compensation for their Units,
         unsecured notes issued by Millennium, the face amount of which would be
         based on the independent appraisals.

         A hearing on the issues the Court had  ordered the parties to brief was
         held  on July 9,  1996.  On July  18,  1996,  the  Court  preliminarily
         approved the proposed,  revised settlement of the B & S Litigation, and
         made a  preliminary  finding that the proposed,  revised  settlement is
         fair, adequate and reasonable to the class, and that a settlement class
         should be conditionally  certified.  After a hearing on August 19, 1996
         the Court  approved  the form and method of notice to limited  partners
         regarding  the  proposed,  revised  settlement  which  has been sent to
         limited partners.

         At a hearing on October 23,  1996,  the Court  stated that it wished to
         consider  late-filed  briefs from certain objectors which were filed up
         to and  including  the date of the  hearing.  The Court also  invited a
         further  response from the  plaintiffs  to such briefs.  On November 4,
         1996, the Court issued an order seeking comment on the final version of
         the  settlement  from the  California  Department of  Corporations  and

         additional  information  from the  plaintiffs.  The Court  requested  a
         response  within  17 days of its  order.  Upon  final  approval  of the
         settlement by the Court, the Consent Solicitation  Statement concerning
         the Exchange would be sent to all limited  partners.  There would be at
         least  a 60  day  solicitation  period  and  a  reorganization  of  the
         Partnership  cannot be  consummated  unless a majority  of the  limited
         partners in the Partnership affirmatively vote to approve it.

 8.      RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Results of operations for the nine months ended  September 30, 1996 are
         not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire
         year.

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Partnership's  real estate  properties are commercial  properties except for
the  Melrose  Out Parcel  which is an  undeveloped  parcel of land for which the
Partnership  has entered into a ground lease.  All properties  were acquired for
cash. The Partnership's public offering of Units commenced on April 28, 1986. As
of October 1, 1987,  the date of the final  admission of limited  partners,  the
Partnership had accepted  subscriptions  for 588,010 Units (including Units held
by the initial  limited  partner) for  aggregate  net  proceeds of  $142,592,500
(gross  proceeds  of  $147,002,500   less  organization  and  offering  expenses
aggregating $4,410,000).

The Partnership uses working capital reserves remaining from the net proceeds of
its public  offering and any  undistributed  cash from operations as its primary
source of  liquidity.  For the nine months ended  September  30,  1996,  100% of
distributions  and  capital   expenditures  were  funded  from  cash  flow  from
operations.  As of September 30, 1996, total remaining  working capital reserves
amounted to approximately $3,739,000. The Partnership intends to distribute less
than all of its future cash flow from operations to maintain  adequate  reserves
for capital  improvements and capitalized lease procurement  costs. In addition,
if the real estate market  conditions  deteriorate in any of the areas where the
Partnership's  properties are located, there is substantial risk that this would
have an adverse effect on cash flow distributions.  Working capital reserves are
temporarily  invested in short-term  money market  instruments and are expected,
together with cash flow from operations, to be sufficient to fund future capital
improvements to the Partnership's properties.

During the nine months  ended  September  30,  1996,  cash and cash  equivalents
increased  $1,926,234  as a result of cash  provided by  operations in excess of
capital  expenditures and distributions to partners.  The Partnership's  primary
source of funds is cash flow from the operations of its properties,  principally
rents  received from tenants,  which  amounted to $3,623,523 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996. The Partnership used $546,027 for capital expenditures
related to capital and tenant  improvements to the properties and $1,151,262 for
distributions to partners during the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

The  Partnership  expects to continue to utilize a portion of its cash flow from
operations to pay for various capital and tenant  improvements to the properties
and  leasing   commissions  (the  amount  of  which  cannot  be  predicted  with
certainty).  Capital and tenant  improvements and leasing commissions may in the
future exceed the Partnership's  cash flow from operations which would otherwise
be available for distributions. In that event, the Partnership would utilize the
remaining  working capital reserves or sell one or more properties,  which would
have an  adverse  effect on future  distributions.  Except as  discussed  above,
management  is  not  aware  of  any  other  trends,   events,   commitments   or
uncertainties that will have a significant impact on liquidity.
                         
REAL ESTATE MARKET

The real estate  market  continues  to suffer from the effects of the  recession
which included a substantial decline in the market value of existing properties.
Market values have been slow to recover,  and while the pace of new construction
has slowed, high vacancy rates continue to exist in many areas.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Technological changes are also occurring which may reduce the office space needs
of many users.  These factors may continue to reduce rental rates.  As a result,
the  Partnership's  potential for realizing the full value of its  investment in
its properties is at increased risk.

IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS

In March 1995, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued Statement # 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed of" ("SFAS # 121").  Although the adoption of the  statement was not
required until fiscal years  beginning  after December 15, 1995, the Partnership
implemented SFAS #121 for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Under SFAS #121 the initial  test to  determine  if an  impairment  exists is to
compute the  recoverability  of the asset based on  anticipated  cash flows (net
realizable  value)  compared  to  the  net  carrying  value  of  the  asset.  If
anticipated cash flows on an undiscounted  basis are insufficient to recover the
net carrying value of the asset,  an impairment  loss should be recognized,  and
the asset written down to its estimated fair value.  The fair value of the asset
is the  amount  by  which  the  asset  could  be  bought  or sold  in a  current
transaction  between  willing  parties,  that  is,  other  than in a  forced  or
liquidation sale. The net realizable value of an asset will generally be greater
than its fair value because net realizable value does not discount cash flows to
present  value  and  discounting  is  usually  one of the  assumptions  used  in
determining fair value.

Upon implementation of SFAS #121, certain of the Partnership's  assets have been
written down to their estimated fair values,  while others remain at depreciated
cost.  Thus, the net carrying  value of the  Partnership's  asset  portfolio may
differ materially from its fair value.  However,  the write-downs for impairment
do not affect the tax basis of the assets and the  write-downs  are not included
in the determination of taxable income or loss.

Because the  determination  of both net realizable value and fair value is based
upon  projections of future  economic events such as property  occupancy  rates,
rental rates, operating cost inflation and market capitalization rates which are
inherently subjective, the amounts ultimately realized at disposition may differ
materially  from the net carrying  values as of the balance sheet date. The cash
flows used to determine fair values and net realizable  values are based on good
faith   estimates  and   assumptions   developed  by   management.   Inevitably,
unanticipated  events and  circumstances  may occur and some assumptions may not
materialize;  therefore,  actual  results  may vary  from the  estimate  and the
variances may be material.  The  Partnership  may provide  additional  losses in
subsequent periods if the real estate market or local economic conditions change
and such write-downs could be material.
                         
Management recorded write-downs for impairment totaling $23,769,050 in the first
quarter of 1995  pursuant to the  adoption of SFAS #121 as discussed  above.  No
write-downs were recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The  Partnership  experienced net income for the nine months ended September 30,
1996  compared to a net loss for the same period in the prior year due primarily
to the significant  write-down for impairment  recorded in 1995. The Partnership
experienced  an increase in net income for the three months ended  September 30,
1996  compared  to the same  period in the prior  year due  primarily  to higher
revenues at certain properties in 1996.

Rental  revenue  increased  during both the nine and three month  periods  ended
September 30, 1996 as compared to the same periods in 1995.  Revenues  increased
at Century Park I, 568 Broadway, and Seattle Tower due to higher occupancy rates
during  both  periods in 1996 as new leases  were  executed  in late 1995 and in
1996.  Revenues  increased at Sutton Square in the first three  quarters of 1996
compared  to 1995 due to higher  real  estate tax and other  reimbursements  and
higher  percentage rent income recorded in 1996.  These increases were offset by
decreases  in  revenues  at  Matthews  during  the nine and three  months  ended
September  30, 1996 as certain  tenants  vacated the  premises  and/or filed for
bankruptcy during 1995.

Costs and expenses  decreased  during the nine months ended  September  30, 1996
compared  to the  same  period  in 1995  due  primarily  to the  write-down  for
impairment  recorded in 1995 while costs and expenses increased during the three
months ended September 30, 1996 compared to 1995.  Operating  expenses increased
during the nine months ended  September 30, 1996 due to increases in repairs and
maintenance  expenses and higher utility costs at certain properties,  partially
offset by decreases in real estate  taxes.  The cost of repairs and  maintenance
and utilities  increased most  significantly at Century Park I, 568 Broadway and
Sutton  Square  due to the  increased  occupancy  during the nine  months  ended
September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995.  Overall real estate tax

expense decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 as tax appeals
resulted in lower  assessed  values and lower real estate taxes at 230 East Ohio
and 568  Broadway.  For the three months  ended  September  30, 1996,  operating
expenses  remained  consistent  compared  to the same  period in the prior year.
Depreciation and  amortization  increased during the nine and three month period
in 1996 compared to 1995 due to the significant  capital and tenant  improvement
work in 1995. The partnership  asset management fee in 1996 remained  consistent
with the fee in 1995.  Administrative  expenses  remained  generally  consistent
during the first three quarters of 1996 as lower allocated  partnership  payroll
costs were  offset by higher  partnership  legal fees in 1996 as compared to the
same periods in the prior year. The property  management  fees increased  during
the nine and three month periods  ended  September 30, 1996 compared to the same
periods in 1995 due to higher  revenues  at  certain  properties  as  previously
discussed.

Interest  income  decreased due to lower  interest  rates for the nine and three
months ended  September  30, 1996 as compared to the same  periods in 1995,  but
higher cash  balances  during the third quarter of 1996 as compared to the prior
year  partially  offset the  decrease in interest  rates.  Other  income,  which
consists of investor  ownership  transfer  fees,  increased  during the nine and
three month periods ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same periods in the
prior year due to a greater number of investor  transfers  during the second and
third quarters of 1996.

Inflation  is not  expected  to  have a  material  impact  on the  Partnership's
operations or financial position.

Legal Proceedings

The  Partnership is a party to certain  litigation.  See Note 7 to the financial
