                       DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE

Exhibit A to the  Prospectus  of the  registrant  dated  April 28,  1986,  filed
pursuant  to Rule  424(b)  under the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as  amended,  is

                                     PART I

Item 1.           Business.

                  High Equity Partners L.P. - Series 86 (the "Partnership") is a
Delaware limited  partnership formed as of November 14, 1985. The Partnership is
engaged in the  business of  operating  and holding  for  investment  previously
acquired income-producing properties,  consisting of office buildings,  shopping
centers and other commercial and industrial  properties such as industrial parks
and  warehouses.  Resources High Equity,  Inc., a Delaware  corporation,  is the
Partnership's  investment general partner (the "Investment General Partner") and
Resources   Capital  Corp.,  a  Delaware   corporation,   is  the  Partnership's
administrative general partner (the "Administrative General Partner").  Both the
Investment   General  Partner  and  the   Administrative   General  Partner  are
wholly-owned  subsidiaries  of Presidio  Capital Corp., a British Virgin Islands
corporation  ("Presidio").  Until November 3, 1994, both the Investment  General
Partner and the Administrative General Partner were wholly-owned subsidiaries of
Integrated  Resources,  Inc.  ("Integrated").  On November  3, 1994,  Integrated
consummated  its plan of  reorganization  under  Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy  Code at which  time,  pursuant to such plan of  reorganization,  the
newly-formed  Presidio  purchased  substantially  all  of  Integrated's  assets.
Presidio AGP Corp., which is a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Presidio,  became the
associate general partner (the "Associate General Partner") on February 28, 1995
replacing  Second Group Partners which withdrew as of that date. (The Investment
General Partner,  the  Administrative  General Partner and the Associate General
Partner are referred to  collectively  hereinafter  as the "General  Partners.")
Affiliates of the General Partners are also engaged in businesses related to the
acquisition and operation of real estate.

                  The Partnership  offered 800,000 units of limited  partnership
interest (the  "Units"),  pursuant to the  Prospectus of the  Partnership  dated
April 28, 1986, as  supplemented by Supplements  dated July 11, 1986,  September
26, 1986,  December 1, 1986,  January 30, 1987,  February 6, 1987, May 26, 1987,
and December 30, 1987 (collectively, the "Prospectus"),  filed pursuant to Rules
424(b) and 424(c) under the Securities  Act of 1933, as amended.  The Prospectus
was filed as part of the  Partnership's  Registration  Statement  on Form  S-11,
Commission File No. 33-1853, as amended (the "Registration Statement"), pursuant
to which  the  Units  were  registered.  Upon  termination  of the  offering  in
September 1987, the Partnership had accepted subscriptions (including Units held
by  the  initial  limited  partner)  for  588,010  Units  for  an  aggregate  of
$147,002,500 in gross  proceeds,  resulting in net proceeds from the offering of
$142,592,500  (gross proceeds of  $147,002,500  less  organization  and offering
costs of  $4,410,000).  All  underwriting  and  sales  commissions  were paid by
Integrated or its affiliates and not by the Partnership.

                  As of March 15, 1998, the  Partnership had invested all of its
net proceeds  available for  investment  after  establishing  a working  capital
reserve and had acquired the eleven  properties  listed below. The Partnership's
property  investments which contributed more than 15% of the Partnership's total
gross revenues were as follows:  in 1997, 568 Broadway and Matthews  represented
22% and 15%, respectively; in 1996, 568 Broadway represented 18.8%; in 1995, 568
Broadway and Matthews Festival represented 17.4% and 16.4%, respectively.

                  The Partnership owned the following properties as of March 15,
1998:
<PAGE>
                  (1) Century Park I. On November 7, 1986, a joint  venture (the
"Century  Park Joint  Venture")  comprised  of the  Partnership  and  Integrated
Resources  High Equity  Partners,  Series 85, a California  limited  partnership
("HEP-85"),  an affiliated public limited partnership,  purchased the fee simple
interest  in  Century  Park  I  ("Century  Park  I"),  an  office  complex.  The
Partnership  and  HEP-85  each have a 50%  interest  in the  Century  Park Joint
Venture.

                  Century  Park I,  situated  on  approximately  8.6  acres,  is
located in the center of San Diego County in Kearny Mesa,  California,  directly
adjacent  to Highway  163 at the  northeast  corner of Balboa  Avenue and Kearny
Villa Road.  Century Park I is part of an office park  consisting  of six office
buildings  and two parking  garages,  in which  Century Park Joint  Venture owns
three buildings, comprising 200,002 net rentable square feet and one garage with
approximately  810 parking  spaces.  One of the three buildings was completed in
the latter half of 1985,  and the other two buildings were completed in February
1986.  The  property  was 91% leased as of January  1, 1998  compared  to 74% at
January  1,  1997.  There are no  leases  scheduled  to expire in 1998.  Capital
expenditures in 1997 included replacement of the roof and the installation of an
HVAC monitoring system in Building I.

                  Century  Park I competes  with other  office  parks and office
buildings in the Kearny Mesa sub-market. The primary competition continues to be
Metropolitan Office Park with 100,000 square feet of available space.

                  (2) 568  Broadway.  On December 2, 1986, a joint  venture (the
"Broadway Joint Venture") comprised of the Partnership and HEP-85 acquired a fee
simple interest in 568-578 Broadway ("568 Broadway"),  a commercial  building in
New York City, New York. Until February 1, 1990, the Partnership and HEP-85 each
had a 50%  interest in the  Broadway  Joint  Venture.  On February 1, 1990,  the
Broadway  Joint  Venture  admitted a third joint  venture  partner,  High Equity
Partners L.P. - Series 88 ("HEP-88"),  an affiliated public limited  partnership
sponsored by Integrated. HEP-88 contributed $10,000,000 for a 22.15% interest in
the joint venture.  HEP-85 and the Partnership each retain a 38.925% interest in
the joint venture.

                  568  Broadway is located in the SoHo  district of Manhattan on
the northeast  corner of Broadway and Prince Street.  568 Broadway is a 12-story
plus basement and sub-basement building constructed in 1898. It is situated on a
site of  approximately  23,600  square feet,  has a rentable  square  footage of
approximately  299,000  square  feet and a floor  size of  approximately  26,000
square feet. Formerly catering primarily to industrial light manufacturing,  the
building has been converted to an office  building and is currently being leased
to art  galleries,  photography  studios,  retail and office  tenants.  The last
manufacturing tenant vacated in January 1993. The building was 100% leased as of
January 1, 1998 and  January 1, 1997.  There are no leases  which  represent  at
least 10% of the square footage of the property scheduled to expire in 1998.

                  568 Broadway competes with several other buildings in the SoHo
area.

                  (3) Seattle Tower.  On December 16, 1986, a joint venture (the
"Seattle  Landmark  Joint  Venture")  comprised  of the  Partnership  and HEP-85
acquired a fee simple  interest in Seattle Tower, a commercial  office  building
located in downtown Seattle ("Seattle  Tower").  The Partnership and HEP-85 each
have a 50% interest in the Seattle Landmark Joint Venture.
<PAGE>
                  Seattle Tower is located at Third Avenue and University Street
on the  eastern  shore of Puget  Sound in the  financial  and retail core of the
Seattle central business  district.  Seattle Tower, built in 1928, is a 27-story
commercial  building  containing  approximately  141,000  rentable  square feet,
including  almost  10,000  square feet of retail space and  approximately  2,211
square  feet of storage  space.  The  building  also  contains a 55-car  garage.
Seattle Tower is connected to the Unigard  Financial Center and the Olympic Four
Seasons  Hotel by a skybridge  system.  Seattle  Tower,  formerly  Northern Life
Tower,  represented  the first  appearance in Seattle of a major building in the
Art Deco style. It was accepted into the National Register of Historic Places in
1975.  Seattle  Tower's  occupancy at January 1, 1998 was 95% compared to 96% at
January 1, 1997.  There are no leases which represent at least 10% of the square
footage of the property scheduled to expire during 1998.

                  Roof  replacement  and  exterior   building  facade  projects,
originally budgeted for 1997 in the aggregate amount of approximately  $630,000,
have been postponed until 1998.

                  The  Partnership  believes that Seattle Tower's primary direct
competition  comes from three  office  buildings  of similar  size or age in the
immediate  vicinity of Seattle Tower,  which  buildings  have current  occupancy
rates which are comparable to Seattle Tower's.

                  (4)  Commonwealth  Industrial  Park.  On April 14,  1987,  the
Partnership purchased a fee simple interest in the Commonwealth  Industrial Park
("Commonwealth"),  located in Fullerton,  California.  Commonwealth  consists of
three light manufacturing/warehouse buildings, containing 273,576 square feet in
the aggregate.

                  Commonwealth is located within the western  industrial  sector
of the city of  Fullerton.  The property is bounded by Artesia  Boulevard on the
north and  Commonwealth  Avenue on the South. The Artesia Freeway (State 91) and
the  Santa Ana  Freeway  (Interstate  5) are  nearby.  The area is a mixture  of
established  residential   neighborhoods  and  old  and  new  retail  and  light
industrial buildings. The Fullerton Airport,  accommodating small aircraft only,
is  located  one block  from the  property.  Commonwealth  is  comprised  of one
21-year-old  building (164,650 square feet) and one 16-year-old building (51,600
square feet), both of which were completely  renovated in 1985, and one building
of 57,326  square  feet  that was  constructed  in 1986.  The site  consists  of
approximately 12.4 acres, with parking to accommodate 391 cars. The property was
87% leased as of January 1, 1998 and January 1, 1997.  There are no leases which
represent at least 10% of the square footage of the property scheduled to expire
during 1998.

                  Commonwealth  is  subject  to  primary  competition  from many
industrial parks in north Orange County and southern Los Angeles County, many of
which are of more modern  design with more  efficient  loading docks and greater
yard space.

                  (5)  Commerce  Plaza I. On April  23,  1987,  the  Partnership
purchased  a fee  simple  interest  in  Commerce  Plaza I located  in  Richmond,
Virginia.
<PAGE>
                  Commerce  Plaza I is located in the Commerce  Center  Business
Park, an office park situated at the  intersection  of I-64,  Glenside Drive and
Broad Street in Henrico  County,  northwest of  Richmond,  Virginia.  This area,
referred to as the West End, contains established  residential  neighborhoods as
well as corporate  headquarters  and many of Richmond's  suburban  office parks.
Commerce  Plaza I's building is  constructed  of steel with red brick facade and
insulated  bronze tinted glass.  It is situated on a site of  approximately  4.2
acres, has a net rentable area of approximately  85,000 square feet and provides
parking  for  approximately  300  cars.  Commerce  Plaza I was 83%  leased as of
January 1, 1998, compared to 95% as of January 1, 1997.

                  Office  space  in The West End of  Richmond,  Virginia,  is in
direct competition with Commerce Plaza I. New space continues to be built in the
nearby Innisbrook section; much of it speculative,  which should make the supply
side of the market more competitive when it is completed.

                  (6)  Melrose  Crossing.  On January 5, 1988,  the  Partnership
purchased a fee simple  interest in Melrose  Crossing,  a neighborhood  shopping
center  located in Melrose Park,  Illinois.  Completed in January 1987,  Melrose
Crossing  contains  138,355  square feet of rentable space in addition to 88,000
square  feet which is leased to Venture  department  store  (which is owned by a
third party).  This store anchors both Melrose  Crossing and Phase II of Melrose
Crossing  Shopping Center which is to the north of Melrose Crossing and is owned
by HEP-88. It is situated on approximately  11.6 acres and has parking space for
1,150 cars. As of January 1, 1998, the shopping center was 33% leased,  compared
to 18% at January 1, 1997. There are no leases which represent 10% of the square
footage of the center that are scheduled to expire during 1998.

                  Melrose  Crossing is located 10 miles west of Chicago's  Loop,
adjacent to another  parcel of land  purchased by the  Partnership  known as the
"Melrose  Out  Parcel"  (described  more  fully  below),  in an  area  comprised
primarily of heavy  industrial  and dense  residential  properties.  The area is
virtually 100% developed.

                  There  are  currently  seven  other  retail  centers  within a
three-mile  radius of Melrose  Crossing that are considered  competitive.  These
centers have  approximately  one million square feet of rentable space,  with an
overall  average  occupancy rate of  approximately  85%. In 1993,  several other
large  retailers such as WalMart and Target opened stores on North Avenue in the
Melrose Park area, and Home Depot,  Office Depot, and Sam's Club have all opened
stores nearby on North Avenue in the last year or two. However, Melrose Crossing
which is situated on Mannheim Road,  suffers from poor roadway access from North
Avenue  which has  become  the  primary  retail  thoroughfare  in the area.  The
Partnership  is continuing  to market the space to national,  local and regional
retailers.  However,  alternatives to traditional retail may have to be explored
to re-tenant the center. These alternatives include  entertainment uses, medical
or educational uses and warehouse/industrial uses.

                  (7) Matthews  Township  Festival.  On February  23, 1988,  the
Partnership  purchased a fee simple  interest in Matthews  Township  Festival ("
Matthews  Festival"),  a community shopping center in suburban Charlotte,  North
Carolina in the town of Matthews.  Completed in November 1987, Matthews Festival
contains  127,388  square feet of  rentable  space.  As of January 1, 1998,  the
center was 94%  leased as  compared  to 86% as of January 1, 1997.  There are no
leases  which  represent  at  least  10% of the  square  footage  of the  center
<PAGE>
scheduled  to expire in 1998.  As a result of  modifications  to the  reciprocal
cross  easements  during 1996,  an outparcel  with building area of 4,500 square
feet was created in the parking lot. During 1990 the A&P anchor store closed and
the center has suffered a lower level of consumer  traffic,  sales and occupancy
as a result. A&P remains obligated pursuant to the terms of its lease until 2007
and continues to pay rent.

                  Matthews  Festival is part of a larger  overall retail complex
containing  approximately  55 acres and zoned for 550,000  square feet of retail
space.  During  1996,  construction  of Phase II of the  overall  complex  and a
concept  restaurant on an outparcel in front of the center were completed by the
original  developer.  New retailers include Harris Teeter,  Stein Mart, The Home
Depot and  Hollywood  Video and an  additional  25,000 square feet of small shop
space.

                  Competitive retail in the area has grown  significantly  since
1996. Matthews Corners, an 180,000 square foot center opened across Independence
Boulevard and includes Hannaford Food and Drug, Marshall's, Linens' n Things and
MJ Designs. Office Max and Homeplace are recent additions to the area.

                  (8) Sutton  Square  Shopping  Center.  On April 15, 1988,  the
Partnership  purchased a fee simple  interest in Sutton Square  Shopping  Center
("Sutton  Square"),  located in  Raleigh,  North  Carolina.  Sutton  Square is a
101,965 square foot  neighborhood  shopping  center located on a 10 acre site in
North  Raleigh.  Construction  was  completed  in phases in 1984-85 and 1986-87.
Anchor  tenants,  Harris Teeter and Eckerd,  comprise 44% of the leasable space.
Sutton  Square was 98% leased as of January 1, 1998  compared to 100% at January
1, 1997.  There are no leases which represent at least 10% of the square footage
of the center scheduled to expire in 1998. Parking lot and landscaping  upgrades
were completed in 1997.

                  Sutton Square and the overall North Raleigh market continue to
reflect high occupancy rates and with very little new construction underway, the
demand for small shop space  should  remain  strong.  The center is located on a
main retail corridor and competes with numerous other neighborhood and community
centers. Sixteen are located within a three mile radius.

                  (9)  TMR  Warehouses.  On  September  15,  1988,  Tri-Columbus
Associates  ("Tri-Columbus"),  a joint  venture  comprised  of the  Partnership,
HEP-88 and IR Columbus Corp.  ("Columbus  Corp."),  a wholly owned subsidiary of
Integrated,  purchased  the fee simple  interest in three  warehouses  (the "TMR
Warehouses"),  located in Columbus, Ohio. The Partnership has a 20.66% undivided
interest in  Tri-Columbus.  Columbus  Corp.  subsequently  sold its  interest in
Tri-Columbus  to HEP-88.  The  Partnership's  ownership  was not affected by the
transfer of Columbus Corp.'s interest in the venture to HEP-88.

                  The TMR Warehouses are  distribution  and light  manufacturing
facilities located in Orange, Grove City and Hilliard,  all suburbs of Columbus,
Ohio  and  comprise  1,010,500  square  feet of  space  in the  aggregate,  with
individual  square  footage of 583,000  square  feet,  190,000  square  feet and
237,500  square feet,  respectively.  As of January 1, 1998 and 1997, the Orange
and Grove City buildings were each 100% leased to a single tenant. As of January
1, 1998, the Hilliard  property was 74% leased compared to 100% as of January 1,
1997.  The Volvo/GM  Heavy Truck lease  covering  583,000  square feet in Orange
Township  extended  its lease in 1997.  The lease  with  Micro  Electronics  for
175,000  square  feet at the  Hilliard  property  expires in August 1998 and the
lease is not expected to be renewed.

                  The TMR Warehouses  compete with numerous other  warehouses in
the market area.
<PAGE>
                  (10)  The  Melrose  Out  Parcel.  On  November  3,  1988,  the
Partnership  purchased  the fee simple  interest in a parcel of vacant land (the
"Melrose Out Parcel") adjacent to the Melrose Crossing Shopping Center,  located
in Melrose Park,  Illinois.  (See "Melrose Crossing" above). The parcel consists
of  approximately  18,000 square feet of vacant land. In 1993,  the  Partnership
entered into a ten year ground lease with Rally's Hamburgers,  Inc.  ("Rally's")
which  constructed a drive-through  hamburger  restaurant on the site at its own
cost. In January 1995, Rally's ceased operating due to low sales volume. Rally's
is required to continue  paying rent for the entire lease term which  expires in
April 2004.

Write-downs for Impairment

                  See  Note  4 to  the  financial  statements  and  Management's
Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition and Results of Operations for a
discussion of write-downs for impairment.

Competition

                  The  real  estate  business  is  highly  competitive  and,  as
described more  particularly  above, the properties  acquired by the Partnership
may  have  active  competition  from  similar  properties  in the  vicinity.  In
addition,  various limited partnerships have been formed by the General Partners
and/or  their  affiliates  that engage in  businesses  that may compete with the
Partnership.  The  Partnership  will also  experience  competition for potential
buyers at such time as it seeks to sell any of its properties.

Employees

                  Services are performed for the  Partnership  at the properties
by  on-site  personnel.  Salaries  for such  on-site  personnel  are paid by the
Partnership   or  by   unaffiliated   management   companies  that  service  the
Partnership's  properties  from monies  received  by them from the  Partnership.
Services are alsoerformed by the Investment and Administrative  General Partners
and by Resources Supervisory Management Corp. ("Resources Supervisory"), each of
which  is an  affiliate  of the  Partnership.  Resources  Supervisory  currently
provides supervisory management and leasing services for Century Park I, Seattle
Tower,  Commonwealth  Industrial  Park,  Commerce  Plaza  I,  Melrose  Crossing,
Matthews  Festival,   568  Broadway,   Sutton  Square  and  230  East  Ohio  and
subcontracts  certain  management and leasing  functions to  unaffiliated  third
parties.  The  TMR  Warehouses  are  currently  directly  managed  by  Resources
Supervisory.

                  The  Partnership  does  not  have  any  employees.   NorthStar
Presidio Management Company, LLC performs accounting,  secretarial, transfer and
administrative  services  for the  Partnership.  See  Item  10,  "Directors  and
Executive Officers of the Registrant",  Item 11, "Executive  Compensation",  and
Item 13, "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions".

Exchange Act of 1934,  as amended (the  "Exchange  Act").  Such  forward-looking
statements   include  statements   regarding  the  intent,   belief  or  current
expectations of the Partnership and its management and involve known and unknown
risks,  uncertainties  and other  factors  which may cause the  actual  results,
performance or achievements  of the Partnership to be materially  different from
any future  results,  performance or  achievements  expressed or implied by such
forward-looking  statements.  Such  factors  include,  among other  things,  the
following:  general  economic and business  conditions,  which will, among other
things,  affect the demand for retail space or retail  goods,  availability  and
creditworthiness  of  prospective  tenants,   lease  rents  and  the  terms  and
availability of financing, adverse changes in the real estate markets including,
among  other  things,  competition  with other  companies;  risks of real estate
development  and  acquisition;   governmental   actions  and  initiatives;   and
environment/safety requirements.

Item 2.            Properties.

                  A description of the Partnership's  properties is contained in
Item 1 above  (see  Schedule  III to the  financial  statements  for  additional
information with respect to the properties).

Item 3.           Legal Proceedings.

                  The 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  counterclaims
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  Broadway  Joint  Venture's  action for rent against Solo Press was
tried in 1992 and resulted in a judgment in favor of the Broadway  Joint Venture
for rent owed.  The  Partnership  believes  this will result in dismissal of the
action brought by Solo Press against the Broadway Joint Venture. Since the facts
of the  other  actions  which  involve  material  claims  or  counterclaims  are
substantially  similar, the Partnership believes that the Broadway Joint Venture
will prevail in those actions as well.

                  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  alleged 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 alleged
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.

                  On or about May 11,  1993 the  Partnership  was advised of the
existence of an action (the "California  Action") in which a complaint (the "HEP
Complaint")  was filed in the Superior Court for the State of California for the
<PAGE>
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")  on  behalf  of a  class  consisting  of  all of the
purchasers  of limited  partnership  interests  in the  Partnership,  Integrated
Resources High Equity  Partners,  Series 85 ("HEP-85") and High Equity  Partners
L.P. - Series 88 ("HEP-88") which are both affiliated partnerships.

                  On November 30, 1995, after the Court preliminarily approved a
settlement  of the  California  Action but  ultimately  declined  to grant final
approval  and after the Court  granted  motions to  intervene,  the original and
intervening   plaintiffs  filed  a  Consolidated  Class  and  Derivative  Action
Complaint  (the  "Consolidated   Complaint")   against  the  Administrative  and
Investment  General  Partners,  the  managing  general  partner of  HEP-85,  the
managing general partner of HEP-88 (the "General Partners"), a subsidiary of the
indirect  corporate parent of the General Partners,  and the indirect  corporate
parent of the General Partners. The Consolidated Complaint alleged 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 and
receivership; fraud; and negligent misrepresentation. The Consolidated Complaint
alleged, among other things, that the General Partners caused a waste of the HEP
partnership assets by collecting  management 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 HEP  partnerships  without
trying to run the HEP partnerships for the purposes for which they are intended;
that the  General  Partners  acted  improperly  to  enrich  themselves  in their
position of control over the HEP partnerships  and that their actions  prevented
non-affiliated  entities  from making and  completing  tender offers to purchase
units  in the HEP  partnerships;  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 took
a  heavily  overvalued  partnership  asset  management  fee;  and  that  limited
partnership units were sold and marketed through the use of false and misleading
statements.

                  The Court  entered an order on January 14, 1997  rejecting the
settlement and concluding  that there had not been an adequate  showing that the
settlement was fair and reasonable.  On February 24, 1997, the Court granted the
request of one plaintiffs' law firm to withdraw as class counsel. Thereafter, in
June 1997, the  plaintiffs  again amended their  complaint (the "Second  Amended
Complaint").  The Seconded  Amended  Complaint  asserts  substantially  the same
claims as the Consolidated  Complaint,  except that it no longer contains causes
of action for fraud,  for negligent  misrepresentation,  or for negligence.  The
defendants  served  answers  denying  the  allegations  and  asserting  numerous
affirmative  defenses.  In February 1998, the Court  certified  three  plaintiff
classes   consisting   of  current  unit  holders  in  each  of  the  three  HEP
partnerships.  On March  11,  1998,  the  Court  stayed  the  California  Action
temporarily to permit the parties to engage in renewed settlement discussions.

                  The General  Partners believe that each of the claims asserted
in the Consolidated Complaint are meritless and intend to continue to vigorously
defend the California  Action. It is impossible at this time to predict what the
defense of the California Action will cost, the Partnership's financial exposure
as a result of the  indemnification  agreement  discussed above, and whether the
costs of defending could adversely affect the Managing General Partner's ability
to perform its obligations to the Partnership.

                  The Limited Partnership Agreement provides for indemnification
of the General  Partners  and their  affiliates  in certain  circumstances.  The
Partnership has agreed to reimburse the General  Partners for their actual costs
<PAGE>
incurred in defending  this  litigation  and the costs of  preparing  settlement
materials.  Through  December  31,  1997,  the General  Partners  had billed the
Partnership a total of $1,058,511  for these costs $824,511 of which was paid in
February 1997.

                  On  February  6,1998,  Everest  Investors  8, LLC  ("Everest")
commenced an action in the  Superior  Court of the State of  California  for the
County of Los  Angeles  (Case No. BC 185554),  against,  among  others,  the HEP
partnerships and Resources Pension Shares 5 LP (an affiliated partnership),  the
general  partners of each of the  partnerships,  and DCC Securities Corp. In the
action,  Everest  alleged,  among other things,  that the  partnerships  and the
general  partners   breached  the  provisions  of  the  applicable   partnership
agreements by refusing to recognize  transfers to Everest of limited partnership
units  purportedly  acquired  pursuant  to tender  offers  that had been made by
Everest (the "Everest  Tender  Units").  Everest  sought  injunctive  relief (a)
directing the  recognition  of transfers to Everest of the Everest  Tender Units
and the  admission  of Everest as a limited  partner with respect to the Everest
Tender Units and (b) enjoining  the transfer of the Everest  Tender Units to any
either party.  Everest seeks damages,  including  punitive damages,  for alleged
breach of contract,  defamation and intentional  interference  with  contractual
relations.  Everest's  motion for a  temporary  restraining  order was denied on
February  6,  1998.  A  hearing  on  Everest's  application  for  a  preliminary
injunction  had been scheduled for February 26,  however,  on February 20, 1998,
Everest asked the Court to take its  application  off calendar.  The  defendants
served  answers  denying the  allegations  and  asserting  numerous  affirmative
defenses.  Merits  discovery has  commenced.  The  partnerships  and the general
partners  believe  that  Everest's  claims  are  without  merit  and  intend  to
vigorously contest the action.

                  On March 27, 1998,  Everest  commenced an action in the United
States  District  Court for the Central  District of California  against,  among
others,  the general partners of the HEP  partnerships.  In the action,  Everest
alleged,  among other  things,  various  violations  of the Williams Act Section
14(d) of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934 in  connection  with the general
partners' refusal to recognize transfers to Everest of limited partnership units
purportedly  acquired pursuant to the Everest tender offers and the letters sent
by the general  partners to the limited  partners  advising  them of the general
partners'  determination  that the Everest  tender  offers  violated  applicable
securities  laws. The general partners believe that Everest's claims are without
merit and intend to vigorously contest the action.

Item 4.            Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
                   

                  No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during
the fourth  quarter of the  fiscal  year  covered  by this  report  through  the
solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

PART II

Item 5.            Market for the Registrant's Securities and
                   Related Security Holder Matters

                  Units of the  Partnership are not publicly  traded.  There are
certain restrictions set forth in the Partnership's  amended limited partnership
agreement (the "Limited 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.

                  In 1987, the Internal  Revenue  Service  adopted certain rules
concerning  publicly traded  partnerships.  The effect of being  classified as a
publicly  traded  partnership  would be that income  produced by the Partnership
would be classified as portfolio income rather than passive income.  In order to
avoid this effect, the Limited Partnership Agreement contains limitations on the
ability of a limited  partner to transfer Units in  circumstances  in which such
transfers could result in the Partnership  being classified as a publicly traded
partnership.  However,  due to the low volume of transfers  of Units,  it is not
anticipated that this will occur.

                  As of March 15,  1998,  there were 12,156  holders of Units of
the  Partnership,  owning an aggregate of 588,010 Units (including Units held by
the initial limited partner).
<PAGE>
                  Distributions  per Unit of the  Partnership for periods during
1996 and 1997 were as follows:

                   Distributions for the               Amount of Distribution
                   Quarter Ended                       Per Unit
                   ---------------------               ----------------------
                   March 31, 1996                             $  .62
                   June 30, 1996                              $  .62
                   September 30, 1996                         $  .62
                   December 31, 1996                          $  .62
                   March 31, 1997                             $  .77
                   June 30, 1997                              $  .96
                   September 30, 1997                         $ 1.15
                   December 31, 1997                          $ 1.15


                  The source of distributions  and capital  improvements in 1996
and in 1997 was cash flow from operations . All  distributions  are in excess of
accumulated  undistributed  net income  and,  therefore,  represent  a return of
capital to investors on a generally accepted accounting  principles basis. There
are  no  material  legal  restrictions  set  forth  in the  Limited  Partnership
Agreement   upon  the   Partnership's   present   or  future   ability  to  make
distributions.  See "Item 7.  Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition  and Results of  Operations"  for a  discussion  of factors  which may
affect the Partnership's ability to pay distributions.

                  Pursuant  to an  agreement  dated as of March  6,  1998  among
Presidio Capital Corp.,  American Real Estate Holding L.P. and Olympia Investors
L.P. (the  "Purchaser"),  on March 12, 1998,  the  Purchaser  commenced a tender
offer to  purchase  up to 40% of the  outstanding units of  limited  partnership
interest at a purchase price of $85.00 per unit.

                  The  agreement  provides,  among other  things,  for:  (i) the
Purchaser's  tender  offers  for up to 40% of the  outstanding  units of limited
partnership  interest of the Partnership and of Integrated Resources High Equity
Partners,  Series 85, and High Equity Partners L.P. -Series 88 (collectively the
"Partnerships")  and the cooperation of the general partners of the Partnerships
(collectively,  the "General  Partners")  to facilitate  such offers  (including
furnishing the Purchaser with limited  partner lists for use in connection  with
the tender offers and taking a neutral stance with respect to the tender offers)
and the transfer of tendered units to the Purchaser  without transfer fees; (ii)
an agreement by the Purchaser and its  affiliates to limit their  acquisition of
units to those  acquired in the tender offers and to limit their  acquisition of
assets or  properties  of the  Partnerships  to properties or assets the General
Partners or their affiliates have publicly  announced their intention to sell or
in  respect  of which  they  have  hired a  broker;  (iii) an  agreement  by the
Purchaser and its affiliates not to (A) seek the removal of the General Partners
or call any  meeting  of  limited  partners  of the  Partnerships;  (B) make any
proposal to or seek proxies from limited  partners of the  Partnerships;  or (C)
act, either alone or in concert with others,  to seek to control the management,
policies or affairs of the Partnerships or to effect any business combination or
other extraordianry  transactions with the Partnerships or the General Partners;
(iv) an agreement by the Purchaser and its affiliates to vote all units owned by
them in favor of a  proposal,  if any,  by the  General  Partners  resulting  in
limited partners receiving  securities listed on NASDAQ or a national securities
exchange;  (v) the Purchaser's  grant to an affiliate of the General Partners of
an option to purchase  50% of the units  acquired in the offers at a price equal
to the lesser of the price paid by the Purchaser or $85.00 per unit (except that
this limitation does not apply, if the purchase price in the offer is
<PAGE>
increased to more than $99.97 in response to a competing  bid),  plus 50% of the
Purchaser's  costs  associated  with  the  offer;  (vi) the  grant to that  same
affiliate  of the General  Partners of a similar  option to purchase  50% of the
units in the other  Partnerships  acquired  pursuant to the tender  offers;  and
(vii) an  agreement  pursuant  to which  either  party  can  initiate  so-called
"buy/sell"  procedures by notifying the other of a specified price per unit (not
to exceed the then current net asset value of the units) and the other terms and
conditions  on which the  non-initiating  party  would then be requried to elect
(subject to certain  exceptions)  either to buy the units acquired in connection
with the  tender  offer  from the  initiating  party or to sell the units to the
initiating party. The agreements of the Purchaser and  its affiliates  described
in clauses (ii),  (iii),  and (iv) above expire on March 6, 2001, but may expire
earlier under certain circumstances.

                  On  March  25,  1998,  the  Partnership  advised  its  limited
partners of its neutral stance on the offer.

Item 7.           Management's Discussion and Analysis of 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 year ended December 31,
1997 all capital  expenditures and distributions were funded from cash flows. As
of December 31, 1997,  total  remaining  working  capital  reserves  amounted to
approximately $5,889,000. 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 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  year  ended  December  31,  1997,  cash  and cash
equivalents  increased  $2,419,123 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 $3,214,689 for the
year ended December 31, 1997. In addition,  the Partnership  received $2,326,377
from the sale of 230 East  Ohio.  The  Partnership  used  $955,591  for  capital
expenditures  related to capital and tenant  improvements  to the properties and
$2,166,352 for distributions to partners during 1997.
<PAGE>
                  The  following  table sets  forth,  for each of the last three
fiscal  years,  the  amount  of the  Partnership  expenditures  at  each  of its
properties for capital improvements and capitalized tenant procurement costs:

</TABLE>
                  The   Partnership  has  budgeted   expenditures   for  capital
improvements and capitalized  tenant procurement costs in 1998 which is expected
to be funded from cash flow from operations.  However,  such  expenditures  will
depend upon the level of leasing  activity  and other  factors  which  cannot be
predicted with certainty.

                  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,  eliminate or
reduce distributions, or sell one or more properties. 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 has begun to recover  from the effects
of the substantial decline in the market value of existing properties.  However,
market  values have been slow to recover,  and high  vacancy  rates  continue to
exist in some areas.  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 continued risk.
<PAGE>
Impairment of Assets

                  The  Partnership  evaluates  the  recoverability  of  the  net
carrying value of its real estate and related assets at least annually, and more
often if circumstances dictate.

                  The  Partnership  estimates the future cash flows  expected to
result from the use of each  property  and its eventual  disposition,  generally
over a five-year  holding period.  In performing this review,  management  takes
into account,  among other things, the existing occupancy,  the expected leasing
prospects of the  property  and the  economic  situation in the region where the
property is located. If the sum of the expected future cash flows, undiscounted,
is less than the carrying amount of the property,  the Partnership recognizes an
impairment  loss, and reduces the carrying  amount of the asset to its estimated
fair value.  Fair value is the amount at 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.  Management  estimates fair value using  discounted
cash  flows or  market  comparables,  as most  appropriate  for  each  property.
Independent  certified  appraisers  are  utilized  to  assist  management,  when
warranted.

                  Impairment  write-downs  recorded  by the  Partnership  do not
affect the tax basis of the assets and are not included in the  determination of
taxable income or loss.

                  Because the cash flows used to evaluate the  recoverability of
the assets and their fair values are 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 at the balance sheet dates. The cash flows and market comparables used in
this  process are based on good faith  estimates  and  assumptions  developed by
management.   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  write-downs,  which could be material  in  subsequent  years if real
estate markets or local economic  conditions  change.  All of the  Partnership's
properties have  experienced  varying degrees of operating  difficulties and the
Partnership recorded significant impairment write-downs in 1995 and prior years.
Improvements in the real estate market and in the properties operations resulted
in no write-downs for impairment being needed in 1996 or 1997.

                  The following table  represents the write-downs for impairment
recorded on certain of the Partnership's properties:

</TABLE>
The details of each 1995 write-down are as follows:
<PAGE>
Century Park I

                  During  1995,  market  conditions  surrounding  Century Park I
deteriorated causing higher vacancy and lower rental rates. Leasing expectations
were  not  achieved  and  capital  expenditures   exceeded  projections  due  to
converting  the building from a single user to  multi-tenancy  capabilities.  In
early 1995,  occupancy was only 25%.  Because the estimate of undiscounted  cash
flows  prepared in 1995  yielded a result  lower than the  asset's net  carrying
value,  management  determined that an impairment existed.  Management estimated
the property's  fair value using  expected cash flows  discounted at 13% over 15
years  and an  assumed  sale  at  the  end of the  holding  period  using  a 10%
capitalization  rate, in order to determine the write-down for  impairment.  The
fair value estimate  resulted in a $2,500,000  write-down for impairment in 1995
of which the Partnership's share was $1,250,000.

568 Broadway

                  During  1995,   significantly   greater  capital   improvement
expenditures  than were previously  anticipated were required in order to render
568 Broadway more  competitive  in the New York market.  Because the estimate of
undiscounted cash flows prepared in 1995 yielded a result lower than the asset's
net carrying value, management determined that an impairment existed. Management
estimated the  property's  fair value in order to determine the  write-down  for
impairment.  Because  the  estimate  of fair  value  using  expected  cash flows
discounted  at 13% over 15 years and an assumed  sale at the end of the  holding
period using a 10%  capitalization  rate yielded a result which, in management's
opinion,  was lower than the property's value in the  marketplace,  the property
was valued using sales of comparable  buildings  which indicated a fair value of
$45  per  square  foot.  This  fair  value  estimate  resulted  in a  $6,600,000
write-down  for  impairment  in  1995  of  which  the  Partnership's  share  was
$2,569,050.

Seattle Tower

                  The  Partnership  did  not  achieve  leasing  expectations  at
Seattle Tower and occupancy in 1995 remained at approximately  80%. In addition,
market rents remained lower than projected. Because the estimate of undiscounted
cash flows prepared in 1995 yielded a result lower than the asset's net carrying
value management determined that an impairment existed. Management estimated the
property's  fair value in order to  determine  the  write-down  for  impairment.
Because the estimate of fair value using  expected cash flows  discounted at 13%
over 15 years and an assumed  sale at the end of the holding  period using a 10%
capitalization rate yielded a result which, in management's  opinion,  was lower
than the  property's  value in the  marketplace,  the  property was valued using
sales of  comparable  buildings  which  indicated a fair value of $25 per square
foot.  This  fair  value  estimate  resulted  in  a  $7,100,000  write-down  for
impairment in 1995 of which the Partnership's share was $3,550,000.

Commonwealth

                  Commonwealth's  occupancy  in 1995 was low. In  addition,  the
property  required more capital  expenditures  than were previously  anticipated
resulting in lower expected cash flow in future periods. Because the estimate of
undiscounted cash flows prepared in 1995 yielded a result lower than the asset's
net carrying value, management determined that an impairment existed. Management
estimated the property's fair value, using expected cash flows discounted at 13%
over 15 years and an assumed  sale at the end of the holding  period using a 10%
capitalization  rate, in order to determine the write-down for impairment.  This
fair value estimate resulted in a $1,700,000 write-down for impairment in 1995.
<PAGE>
Melrose Crossing

                  Occupancy at Melrose  Crossing  declined to 50% in early 1995.
As a result,  income did not meet projected  levels.  In addition,  rental rates
declined  and real estate taxes were in excess of amounts  previously  projected
resulting in lower cash flows.  Because the estimate of undiscounted  cash flows
prepared in 1995  yielded a result  lower than the asset's net  carrying  value,
management  determined  that an  impairment  existed.  Management  estimated the
property's  fair value in order to  determine  the  write-down  for  impairment.
Because the estimate of fair value using  expected cash flows  discounted at 13%
over 15 years and an assumed  sale at the end of the holding  period using a 10%
capitalization rate yielded a result which, in management's  opinion,  was lower
than the  property's  value in the  marketplace,  the  property was valued using
sales of  comparable  buildings  which  indicated a fair value of $15 per square
foot.  This  fair  value  estimate  resulted  in  a  $7,200,000  write-down  for
impairment in 1995.

Matthews Festival

                  The  anchor  tenant  has not  operated  its store at  Matthews
Festival since 1990 while  continuing to make rental payments under the terms of
the lease.  However,  the absence of an operating  anchor  tenant has  adversely
impacted  both the  lease-up of the  remaining  space at the property and rental
rates,  and has  required  additional  tenant  procurement  costs.  Because  the
estimate of undiscounted cash flows prepared in 1995 yielded a result lower than
the  asset's  net  carrying  value,  management  determined  that an  impairment
existed.  Management  estimated the property's  fair value in order to determine
the write-down for impairment. Because the estimate of fair value using expected
cash flows discounted at 13% over 15 years and an assumed sale at the end of the
holding  period  using a 10%  capitalization  rate  yielded a result  which,  in
management's  opinion,  was lower than the property's  value in the marketplace,
the property was valued using sales of comparable  buildings  which  indicated a
fair  value of $20 per  square  foot.  This fair value  estimate  resulted  in a
$5,300,000 write-down for impairment in 1995.

230 East Ohio Street

                  In 1995, the Partnership did not achieve leasing  expectations
at 230 East Ohio Street and  occupancy  remained  low. In addition,  real estate
taxes  and  other  costs   exceeded   expectations.   Because  the  estimate  of
undiscounted cash flows prepared in 1995 yielded a result lower than the asset's
net carrying value, management determined that an impairment existed. Management
estimated the  property's  fair value in order to determine the  write-down  for
impairment.  Because  the  estimate  of fair  value  using  expected  cash flows
discounted  at 13% over 15 years and an assumed  sale at the end of the  holding
period using a 10%  capitalization  rate yielded a result which, in management's
opinion,  was lower than the property's value in the  marketplace,  the property
was valued using sales of comparable  buildings  which indicated a fair value of
$20  per  square  foot.  This  fair  value  estimate  resulted  in a  $2,200,000
write-down for impairment in 1995.

                  On October 2, 1997, the Partnership  closed on the sale of the
230 East Ohio property,  located in Chicago,  Illinois, to an existing tenant in
the building for $2,800,000. As a result of the sale, the Partnership recognized
a Gain on the Sale of Property of $950,651 during the fourth quarter 1997.

Results Of Operations

  1997 vs. 1996

                  The Partnership  experienced an increase in net income for the
year ended  December 31, 1997 compared to 1996  primarily due to the gain on the
sale of 230 East Ohio,  lower costs and expenses and higher  interest  income in
1997, partially offset by lower revenues.

                  Rental revenues  decreased  during the year ended December 31,
1997 at Melrose I due to certain tenants  vacating the premises in late 1996 and
early 1997 and at 230 East Ohio  because of the sale of the  property on October
2, 1997.  These  decreases for the year ended  December 31, 1997 were  partially
offset by an increase in rental revenue at 568 Broadway and  Commonwealth due to
higher rental rates and occupancy rates, respectively, as lease renewals and new
leases were executed in the second half of 1996 and in early 1997.

                  Costs and expenses  decreased  slightly  during the year ended
December  31,  1997  compared  to  1996,  due to a  decrease  in  administrative
expenses,  asset management fee and property  management fee partially offset by
and increase in operating expenses and depreciation. Administrative expenses for
the year ended December 31, 1997 decreased, as legal and accounting fees related
to  ongoing  litigation  and the HEP  reorganization  were  higher in 1996.  The
Partnership's  asset  management  fee and  property  management  fees  decreased
because of reduced assets under  management and revenues  received from tenants,
respectively,  due to the sale of 230 East Ohio.  Operating  expenses  increased
during the year ended  December  31,  1997 due to  primarily  increases  in real
estate taxes and bad debt  expenses.  Overall real estate tax expense was higher
at 568 Broadway in 1997 due to the  significant  refunds  received in 1996 which
offset the annual tax payments.  Bad debt expenses decreased at Commonwealth and
Melrose I because  certain tenants vacated in 1996 at which time the receivables
deemed to be  uncollectible  were  written off. No such bad debt  expenses  were
incurred in 1997.

                  Interest income  increased  during the year ended December 31,
1997 as compared to 1996 due to higher rates and higher  invested cash balances.
Other income increased slightly during the year ended December 31, 1997 compared
to 1996 due to a greater number of investor transfers in 1997.


1996 vs. 1995

                  The  Partnership  experienced  net  income  for the year ended
December 31, 1996 compared to a net loss for the prior year due primarily to the
significant  write-downs  for  impairment  recorded  during  1995 as  previously
discussed.

                  Rental  revenue  increased  during the year ended December 31,
1996 as compared to 1995. The most significant increases in revenues occurred at
568 Broadway, Century Park, Seattle Tower, Sutton Square and Commonwealth due to
higher  occupancy  rates  during  1996 as  compared  to the  prior  year.  These
increases,  however,  were partially offset by decreases in revenues during 1996
at Melrose  Crossing and Matthews as certain  tenants  vacated  and/or filed for
bankruptcy.  Revenues at the other properties  generally remained  consistent in
1996 as compared to 1995.
<PAGE>
                  Costs and expenses  decreased  during the year ended  December
31, 1996 as compared to 1995 due primarily to the  significant  write-downs  for
impairment  recorded in 1995.  Operating  expenses  decreased during 1996 due to
decreases  in real  estate  taxes at  certain  properties  partially  offset  by
increases  in repairs and  maintenance  and  utility  costs.  Real estate  taxes
decreased significantly at 568 Broadway due to the receipt of refunds related to
the 1992-1995  tax years of which the  Partnership's  share was  $353,500.  Real
estate  taxes also  decreased  at Melrose I as the  result of  reduction  of the
assessed value pursuant to on-going tax appeals. Repair and maintenance expenses
increased at Century Park and Sutton Square due to the higher  occupancy in 1996
compared  to 1995.  The  cost of  utilities  increased  at 568  Broadway  due to
increased occupancy in 1996 as compared to the prior year.  Depreciation expense
for 1996 increased due to the significant  capitalized  improvements  and tenant
procurement  costs incurred and  capitalized  during the year ended December 31,
1995. The partnership asset management fee remained constant in 1996 as compared
to  1995.   Administrative   expenses   increased   due  to  the   Partnership's
reimbursement  of the  General  Partners'  litigation  and  settlement  costs as
previously  discussed  and the property  management  fee increase was the direct
result of higher revenues at the aforementioned properties.

                  Interest income  decreased due to lower interest rates in 1996
as compared to 1995 partially  offset by increases due to higher cash investment
balances for the year ended  December 31, 1996  compared to 1995.  Other income,
which consists of investor ownership transfer fees, increased during the current
year as compared to 1995 due to a greater number of transfers in 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 Partnership's financial statements for a description thereof.

Year 2000 Compliance

                  The  Partnership's  accounting,  administrative  and  property
management  services are provided by affiliates of the General  Partners.  Those
affiliates have and will continue to make certain  investments in their software
systems  and  applications  to ensure  that they are year  2000  compliant.  The
Partnership's  management  believes that the financial impact to the Partnership
of ensuring its year 2000  compliance has not been and is not  anticipated to be
material to the Partnership's financial position or results of operations.

                  accounting.   The  preparation  of  financial   statements  in
                  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles
                  requires  management to make  estimates and  assumptions  that
                  affect the  reported  amounts of assets  and  liabilities  and
                  disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
                  the financial  statements and the reported amounts of revenues
                  and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
                  differ from those estimates.

                  Reclassifications

                  Certain  reclassifications  have  been  made to the  financial
                  statements  for the  prior  years in order to  conform  to the
                  current year's classifications.

                  Cash and cash equivalents

                  For purposes of the statements of cash flows,  the Partnership
                  considers  all  short-term  investments  which  have  original
                  maturities  of three  months or less from the date of issuance
                  to be cash equivalents.

                  Leases

                  The  Partnership  accounts for its leases under the  operating
                  method.  Under this method,  revenue is  recognized as rentals
                  become due,  except for stepped  leases where the revenue from
                  the lease is averaged over the life of the lease.

                  Depreciation

                  Depreciation is computed using the  straight-line  method over
                  the useful life of the  property,  which is estimated to be 40
                  years.  The cost of properties  represents the initial cost of

                  the properties to the Partnership plus acquisition and closing
                  costs  less  write-downs,  if  any.  Tenant  improvements  are
                  amortized over the applicable lease term.

                  Investments in joint ventures

                  For  properties  purchased  in joint  venture  ownership  with
                  affiliated partnerships,  the financial statements present the
                  assets, liabilities,  income and expenses of the joint venture
                  on a pro rata basis in accordance with the
                  Partnership's percentage of ownership.

                  Impairment of Assets

                  The  Partnership  evaluates  the  recoverability  of  the  net
                  carrying  value of its real estate and related assets at least
                  annually, and more often if circumstances dictate.

                  The  Partnership  estimates the future cash flows  expected to
                  result  from  the  use  of  each  property  and  its  eventual
                  disposition,  generally over a five-year  holding  period.  In
                  performing this review,  management takes into account,  among
                  other things,  the existing  occupancy,  the expected  leasing
                  prospects of the  property  and the economic  situation in the
                  region  where  the  property  is  located.  If the  sum of the
                  expected  future  cash flows,  undiscounted,  is less than the
                  carrying amount of the property, the Partnership recognizes an
                  impairment  loss, and reduces the carrying amount of the asset
                  to its estimated fair value. Fair value is the amount at 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.

                  Management estimates fair value using discounted cash flows or
                  market  comparables,  as most  appropriate  for each property.
                  Independent   certified  appraisers  are  utilized  to  assist
                  management, when warranted.

                  Impairment  write-downs  recorded  by the  Partnership  do not
                  affect the tax basis of the assets and are not included in the
                  determination of taxable income or loss.

                  Because the cash flows used to evaluate the  recoverability of
                  the assets and their fair values are 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 at the balance sheet
                  dates.  The cash  flows and  market  comparables  used in this
                  process  are based on good  faith  estimates  and  assumptions

                  developed   by    management.    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 write-downs, which could be material in
                  subsequent  years if real  estate  markets  or local  economic
                  conditions change.

                  Income taxes

                  No provision has been made for federal, state and local income
                  taxes  since  they  are  the  personal  responsibility  of the
                  partners.

                  Net  income  (loss)  and  distributions  per  unit of  limited
                  partnership interest

                  Net  income  (loss)  and  distributions  per  unit of  limited
                  partnership  interest is  calculated  based upon the number of
                  units  outstanding  (588,010),  for  each of the  years  ended
                  December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.

                  Recently issued accounting pronouncements

                  The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has recently
                  issued  several new accounting  pronouncements.  Statement No.
                  130, "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income" establishes  standards
                  for  reporting  and  display of  comprehensive  income and its
                  components.  Statement No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of
                  an Enterprise and Related Information:  establishes  standards
                  for  the  way  that   public   business   enterprises   report
                  information  about  operating  segments  in  annual  financial
                  statements and requires that those enterprises report selected
                  information  about  operating  segments  in interim  financial
                  reports issued to shareholders.  It also establishes standards
                  for related disclosure about products and services, geographic
                  areas, and major customers.  These two standards are effective
                  for  the  Partnership's  1998  financial  statements,  but the
                  Partnership does not believe that they will have any effect on
                  the Partnership's computation or presentation of net income or
                  other disclosures.

                  The   implementation  in  1997  of  FASB  Statement  No.  128,
                  "Earnings  per Share" and Statement  No. 129,  "Disclosure  of
                  Information  about capital  Structure" did not have any impact
                  on the Partnership financial statements.

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.  are wholly owned
                  subsidiaries of Presidio Capital Corp. ("Presidio").  Presidio
                  AGP  Corp.,  which  is  also  a  wholly-owned   subsidiary  of
                  Presidio,  is the Associate General Partner (together with the
                  Investment and Administrative  General Partners,  the "General
                  Partners"). 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.  Subject to
                  the  rights  of  the  Limited   Partners   under  the  Limited
                  Partnership  Agreement,   Presidio  controls  the  Partnership
                  through  its  indirect  ownership  of all  the  shares  of the
                  General Partners. On August 28,1997, an affiliate of NorthStar
                  Capital  Partners  acquired  all  of the  Class  B  shares  of
                  Presidio.  This  acquisition,   when  aggregated  which  other
                  acquisitions,  caused  NorthStar  Capital  Partners to acquire
                  indirect control of the General Partners.

                  On November 2, 1997 the Administrative Services Agreement with
                  Wexford  Management LLC  ("Wexford"),  the  administrator  for
                  Presidio,  expired  pursuant  to its terms.  Pursuant  to that
                  agreement, Wexford had authority to designate directors of the
                  General  Partners.  Presidio  also  entered  into a management
                  agreement  with NorthStar  Presidio  Management  Company,  LLC
                  ("NorthStar  Presidio").  Under  the  terms of the  management
                  agreement,  NorthStar  Presidio  will  provide the  day-to-day
                  management   of   Presidio,   and  its  direct  and   indirect
                  subsidiaries  and  affiliates.  Effective  November  3,  1997,
                  Wexford and Presidio entered into an  Administrative  Services
                  Agreement  dated as of November 3, 1997 (the  "ASA").  The ASA
                  provides that Wexford will continue to provide  consulting and
                  administrative  services to Presidio and its  affiliates for a
                  term of six months.  During the years ended  December 31, 1997
                  and  1996,  reimbursable  expenses  paid  to  Wexford  by  the
                  Partnership amounted to $43,361 and $83,516, respectively.

                  The Partnership has 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 unaffiliated management companies
                  which are engaged for the purpose of performing certain of the

                  management  functions  for certain  properties.  For the years
                  ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, Resources  Supervisory
                  was entitled to receive  $416,428,  $435,467,  and $379,720 in
                  total, respectively, of which $287,466, $254,005, and $196,480
                  was paid to unaffiliated management companies.

                  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.

                  For   managing   the   affairs   of   the   Partnership,   the
                  Administrative  General  Partner  is  entitled  to  receive  a
                  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  the
                  years.ended   December   31,   1997,   1996  and   1995,   the
                  Administrative General Partner earned $1,376,011,  $1,406,204,
                  and $1,406,204, respectively.

                  The general  partners  are  allocated  5% of the net income or
                  (losses)  of  the  Partnership  which  amounted  to  $142,281,
                  $112,226,   and   $(1,104,245)   in  1997,   1996  and   1995,
                  respectively.  The  General  Partners  are  also  entitled  to
                  receive  5% of  distributions,  which  amounted  to  $124,721,
                  $76,752, and $76,752 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

                  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
                  invested  capital and  certain  specified  minimum  returns on
                  their  investments.  All fees received by the General Partners
                  are  subject  to  certain  limitations  as  set  forth  in the
                  Partnership Agreement.

                  During July 1996 through  March 1998,  Millennium  Funding III
                  Corp.,  a  wholly  owned  indirect   subsidiary  of  Presidio,
                  contracted to purchase  45,320 units of the  Partnership  from
                  various limited partners,  which represents approximately 7.7%
                  of the outstanding  limited  partnership  units.  During 1997,
                  distributions  in the  amount  of  $13,904  were  received  by
                  Millennium Funding III Corp. related to these units.

                  Pursuant  to an  agreement  dated as of March  6,  1998  among
                  Presidio,  American  Real  Estate  Holding  L.P.  and  Olympia
                  Investors  L.P.  (the  "Purchaser"),  on March 12,  1998,  the
                  Purchaser  commenced  a tender  offer to purchase up to 40% of
                  the  outstanding  units of limited  partnership  interest at a
                  purchase price of $85.00 per unit.

                  Management   recorded   write-downs  for  impairment  totaling
                  $23,769,050  in 1995.  No  write-downs  were  required for the
                  years  ended  December  31,  1996  or  1997.  The  details  of
                  write-downs recorded in 1995 are as follows:

4.                REAL ESTATE (CONTINUED)

                  Commonwealth's  occupancy  in 1995 was low. In  addition,  the
                  property   required  more  capital   expenditures   than  were
                  previously  anticipated  resulting in lower expected cash flow
                  in future periods.  Because the estimate of undiscounted  cash
                  flows prepared in 1995 yielded a result lower than the asset's
                  net carrying value,  management  determined that an impairment
                  existed. Management estimated the property's fair value, using
                  expected  cash  flows  discounted  at 13% over 15 years and an
                  assumed  sale at the  end of the  holding  period  using a 10%
                  capitalization  rate, in order to determine the write-down for
                  impairment.  This fair value estimate resulted in a $1,700,000
                  write-down for impairment in 1995.

                  During  1995,  market  conditions   surrounding  Century  Park
                  deteriorated  causing  higher  vacancy and lower rental rates.
                  Leasing   expectations   were   not   achieved   and   capital
                  expenditures   exceeded  projections  due  to  converting  the
                  building from a single user to multi-tenancy capabilities.  In
                  early 1995,  occupancy  was only 25%.  Because the estimate of
                  undiscounted  cash  flows  prepared  in 1995  yielded a result
                  lower than the asset's net carrying value, using expected cash
                  flows  discounted  at 13% over 15 years and an assumed sale at
                  the end of the holding period using a 10% capitalization rate,
                  in order to determine the write-down for impairment. This fair
                  value  estimate  resulted  in  a  $2,500,000   write-down  for
                  impairment  in 1995  of  which  the  Partnership's  share  was
                  $1,250,000.

                  In 1995, the Partnership did not achieve leasing  expectations
                  at 230 East Ohio and occupancy remained low. In addition, real
                  estate  taxes  and other  costs  have  exceeded  expectations.
                  Because the estimate of  undiscounted  cash flows  prepared in
                  1995  yielded a result  lower than the  asset's  net  carrying
                  value,  management  determined  that  an  impairment  existed.
                  Management  estimated  the  property's  fair value in order to
                  determine the write-down for impairment.  Because the estimate
                  of fair value using expected cash flows discounted at 13% over
                  15 years and an assumed sale at the end of the holding  period
                  using a 10%  capitalization  rate yielded a result  which,  in
                  management's  opinion,  was lower than the property's value in
                  the  marketplace,  the  property  was  valued  using  sales of
                  comparable  buildings  which indicated a fair value of $20 per
                  square foot. This fair value estimate resulted in a $2,200,000
                  write-down for impairment in 1995.

                  On October 2, 1997, the Partnership  closed on the sale of the
                  230 East Ohio property,  located in Chicago,  Illinois,  to an
                  existing tenant in the building for $2,800,000. As a result of
                  the sale,  the  Partnership  recognized  a Gain on the Sale of
                  Property  of  $950,651  during the fourth  quarter  1997.  The
                  Partnership  did not achieve  leasing  expectations at Seattle

                  Tower in 1995 and occupancy  remained at approximately 80%. In
                  addition, market rents were lower than projected.  Because the
                  estimate of undiscounted cash flows prepared in 1995 yielded a
                  result  lower than the asset's net carrying  value  management
                  determined that an impairment  existed.  Management  estimated
                  the property's fair value in order to determine the write-down
                  for  impairment.  Because  the  estimate  of fair value  using
                  expected  cash  flows  discounted  at 13% over 15 years and an
                  assumed  sale at the  end of the  holding  period  using a 10%
                  capitalization  rate yielded a result which,  in  management's
                  opinion,   was  lower  than  the   property's   value  in  the
                  marketplace, the property was valued using sales of comparable
                  buildings which indicated a fair value of $25 per square foot.
                  This fair value estimate  resulted in a $7,100,000  write-down
                  for  impairment in 1995 of which the  Partnership's  share was
                  $3,550,000.

                  During  1995,   significantly   greater  capital   improvement
                  expenditures than were previously anticipated were required in
                  order to render 568 Broadway more  competitive in the New York
                  market.  In addition,  occupancy  levels remained low. Because
                  the  estimate  of  undiscounted  cash flows  prepared  in 1995
                  yielded a result  lower than the asset's net  carrying  value,
                  management  determined that an impairment existed.  Management
                  estimated the property's  fair value in order to determine the
                  write-down for impairment.  Because the estimate of fair value
                  using expected cash flows  discounted at 13% over 15 years and
                  an assumed  sale at the end of the holding  period using a 10%

                  opinion,   was  lower  than  the   property's   value  in  the
                  marketplace, the property was valued using sales of comparable
                  buildings which indicated a fair value of $45 per square foot.
                  This fair value estimate  resulted in a $6,600,000  write-down
                  for  impairment in 1995 of which the  Partnership's  share was
                  $2,569,050.

                  Occupancy at Melrose  Crossing  declined to 50% in early 1995.
                  As a  result,  income  levels  did not meet  projected  income
                  levels.  In addition,  rental  rates  declined and real estate
                  taxes were in excess of amounts previously projected resulting
                  in lower cash flows. Because the estimate of undiscounted cash
                  flows prepared in 1995 yielded a result lower than the asset's
                  net carrying value,  management  determined that an impairment
                  existed.  Management  estimated the  property's  fair value in
                  order to determine the write-down for impairment.  Because the

                  holding  period  using a 10%  capitalization  rate  yielded  a
                  result  which,  in  management's  opinion,  was lower than the
                  property's value in the  marketplace,  the property was valued
                  using sales of  comparable  buildings  which  indicated a fair
                  value  of $15  per  square  foot.  This  fair  value  estimate
                  resulted in a $7,200,000 write-down for impairment in 1995.

                  The  anchor  tenant  has not  operated  its store at  Matthews
                  Festival since 1990 while  continuing to make rental  payments
                  under the  terms of the  lease.  However,  the  absence  of an
                  operating  anchor  tenant  has  adversely  impacted  both  the
                  lease-up of the  remaining  space at the  property  and rental
                  rates, and has required  additional tenant  procurement costs.
                  Because  the  revised  estimate  of  undiscounted  cash  flows
                  prepared in 1995  yielded a result  lower than the asset's net
                  carrying  value,  management  determined  that  an  impairment
                  existed.  Management  estimated the  property's  fair value in

                  result  which,  in  management's  opinion,  was lower than the
                  property's value in the  marketplace,  the property was valued
                  using sales of  comparable  buildings  which  indicated a fair
                  value  of $75  per  square  foot.  This  fair  value  estimate
                  resulted in a $5,300,000 write-down for impairment in 1995.

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  Broadway  Joint  Venture's  action for rent  against Solo
                  Press was tried in 1992 and  resulted in a judgement  in favor
                  of the Broadway Joint Venture for rent owed.  The  Partnership
                  believes  this will result in dismissal of the action  brought
                  by Solo Press against the Broadway  Joint  Venture.  Since the
                  facts of the other actions which  involve  material  claims or
                  counterclaims  are  substantially   similar,  the  partnership
                  believes that the 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.
                  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.

c)                On or about May 11,  1995 the  Partnership  was advised of the
                  existence  of an action (the  "California  Action") 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")  on  behalf  of a class  consisting  of all of the
                  purchasers   of   limited   partnership   interests   in   the
                  Partnership,  Integrated  Resources  of High Equity  Partners,
                  Series 85 ("HEP-85") and High Equity Partners L.P. - Series 88
                  ("HEP-88") which are both affiliated partnership.

                  On November 30, 1995, after the Court preliminarily approved a
                  settlement of the California Action but ultimately declined to
                  grant final  approval and after the Court  granted  motions to
                  intervene,  the original and  intervening  plaintiffs  filed a
                  Consolidated   Class  and  Derivative  Action  Complaint  (the
                  "Consolidated   Complaint")  against  the  Administrative  and
                  Investment  General Partners,  the managing General Partner of
                  HEP-85,  the managing General Partner of HEP-88  (collectively
                  the  "General   Partners"),   a  subsidiary  of  the  indirect
                  corporate  parent of the General  Partners,  and the  indirect
                  corporate  parent of the General  Partners.  The  Consolidated
                  Complaint  alleged  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 and receivership; fraud; and negligent
                  misrepresentation.  The Consolidated  Complaint alleged, among
                  other things,  that the General Partners caused a waste of the
                  HEP partnership  assets by collecting  management 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 HEP
                  partnerships  without trying to run the HEP  partnerships  for
                  the  purposes  for which they are  intended;  that the General
                  Partners  acted  improperly  to  enrich  themselves  in  their
                  position of control over the HEP  partnerships  and that their
                  actions  prevented  non-affiliated  entities  from  making and
                  completing   tender  offers  to  purchase  units  in  the  HEP
                  partnerships;  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  took  a  heavily
                  overvalued  partnership asset management fee; and that limited
                  partnership  units were sold and  marketed  through the use of
                  false and misleading statements.

7.                COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

                  The Court  entered an order on January 14, 1997  rejecting the
                  settlement and concluding  that there had not been an adequate
                  showing  that  the  settlement  was fair  and  reasonable.  On
                  February  24,  1997,  the Court  granted  the  request  of one
                  plaintiffs' law firm to withdraw as class counsel. Thereafter,
                  in June 1997,  the  plaintiffs  again amended their  complaint
                  (the  "Second  Amended   Complaint").   The  Seconded  Amended
                  Complaint  asserts   substantially  the  same  claims  as  the
                  Consolidated  Complaint,  except  that it no  longer  contains
                  causes of action for fraud,  for negligent  misrepresentation,
                  or for negligence.  The defendants  served answers denying the
                  allegations and asserting numerous  affirmative  defenses.  In
                  February 1998, the Court  certified  three  plaintiff  classes
                  consisting  of current  unit  holders in each of the three HEP
                  partnerships.   On  March  11,  1998,  the  Court  stayed  the
                  California Action  temporarily to permit the parties to engage
                  in renewed settlement discussions.

                  The General  Partners believe that each of the claims asserted
                  in the  Consolidated  Complaint  are  meritless  and intend to
                  continue to vigorously  defend the  California  Action.  It is
                  impossible  at this time to  predict  what the  defense of the
                  California  Action  will  cost,  the  Partnership's  financial
                  exposure  as  a  result  of  the   indemnification   agreement
                  discussed  above,  and  whether the costs of  defending  could
                  adversely  affect the Managing  General  Partner's  ability to
                  perform its obligations to the Partnership.

                  The Limited Partnership Agreement provides for indemnification
                  of the  General  Partners  and  their  affiliates  in  certain
                  circumstances.  The  Partnership  has agreed to reimburse  the
                  General  Partners for their actual costs incurred in defending
                  this   litigation  and  the  costs  of  preparing   settlement
                  materials. Through December 31, 1997, the General Partners had
                  billed the  Partnership a total of $1,058,511  for these costs
                  $824,511 of which was paid in February 1997.

d)                On  February 6, 1998,  Everest  Investors  8, LLC  ("Everest")
                  commenced  an  action  in the  Superior  Court of the State of
                  California for the County of Los Angeles (Case No. BC 185554),
                  against, among others, the HEP partnerships, Resources Pension
                  Shares 5 LP (an affiliated partnership),  the general partners
                  of each of the  partnerships  and DCC Securities  Corp. In the
                  action,   Everest  alleged,   among  other  things,  that  the
                  partnerships and the general partners  breached the provisions
                  of  the  applicable  partnership  agreements  by  refusing  to
                  recognize  transfers to Everest of limited  partnership  units
                  purportedly  acquired  pursuant to tender offers that had been
                  made by Everest (the "Everest Tender  Units").  Everest sought
                  injunctive  relief (a) directing the  recognition of transfers
                  to Everest of the Everest  Tender  Units and the  admission of
                  Everest  as a limited  partner  with  respect  to the  Everest
                  Tender Units and (b) enjoining the

7.                COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

                  transfer  of the  Everest  Tender  Units to any either  party.
                  Everest seeks damages, including punitive damages, for alleged
                  breach of contract,  defamation and  intentional  interference
                  with contractual  relations.  Everest's motion for a temporary
                  restraining order was denied on February 6, 1998. A hearing on
                  Everest's  application  for a preliminary  injunction had been
                  scheduled  for  February  26,  however,  on February 20, 1998,
                  Everest asked the Court to take its  application off calendar.
                  The defendants  served  answers  denying the  allegations  and
                  asserting numerous affirmative defenses.  Merits discovery has
                  commenced.  The  partnerships and the general partners believe
                  that  Everest's   claims  are  without  merit  and  intend  to
                  vigorously contest the action.

                  On March 27, 1998,  Everest  commenced an action in the United
                  States  District Court for the Central  District of California
                  against,  among  others,  the  general  partners  of  the  HEP
                  partnerships.  In the  action,  Everest  alleged,  among other
                  things,  various  violations of the Williams Act Section 14(d)
                  of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 in connection with the
                  general partners' refusal to recognize transfers to Everest of
                  limited partnership units purportedly acquired pursuant to the
                  Everest  tender  offers and the  letters  sent by the  general
                  partners to the limited partners  advising them of the general
                  partners'   determination   that  the  Everest  tender  offers
                  violated  applicable  securities  laws.  The general  partners
                  believe that Everest's  claims are without merit and intend to
                  vigorously contest the action.

Item 10.         Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant

                  The   Partnership   has  no   officers   or   directors.   The
Administrative General Partner has overall administrative responsibility for the
Partnership and for operations and for resolving conflicts of interest after the
net proceeds of the offering are invested in properties.  The Investment General
Partner  has  responsibility  for the  selection,  evaluation,  negotiation  and
disposition of  properties.  The Associate  General  Partner does not devote any
material  amount  of its  business  time and  attention  to the  affairs  of the
Partnership.  The Investment General Partner also serves as the managing general
partner  of  HEP-85  and  HEP-88,  both  limited  partnerships  with  investment
objectives similar to those of the Partnership. The Associate General Partner is
also a general partner in other partnerships  affiliated with Presidio and whose
investment objectives are similar to those of the Partnership.

                  Based on a  review  of  Forms 3 and 4 and  amendments  thereto
furnished to the  Partnership  pursuant to Rule 16a-3(e)  during its most recent
fiscal year and Forms 5 and amendments thereto furnished to the Partnership with
respect to its most recent fiscal year, and written representations  pursuant to
Item 405(b)(2)(i) of Regulation S-K, none of the General Partners,  directors or
officers of the  Administrative  and Investment  General  Partners or beneficial
owners of more than 10% of the Units  failed to file on a timely  basis  reports
required by Section 16(a) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange
Act")  during  the  most  recent  fiscal  or  prior  fiscal  years.  No  written
representations  were  received  from  the  partners  of the  Associate  General
Partner.

                  As of March  15,  1998,  the names and ages of, as well as the
positions  held  by,  the  officers  and  directors  of the  Administrative  and
Investment  General Partners and Associate General Partners are as follows:
