                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

     General.  Murray Income Properties II, Ltd. (the "Partnership") was formed
December 23, 1985 under the Texas Uniform Limited Partnership Act to acquire
recently constructed income-producing shopping centers located in growth
markets.  As of November, 1989, the Partnership became governed by the Texas
Revised Limited Partnership Act.  The General Partners of the Partnership are
Murray Realty Investors IX, Inc., a Texas corporation, and Crozier Partners IX,
Ltd., a Texas limited partnership.

     In September 1986, the Partnership acquired a 15% interest in Tower Place
Joint Venture, which owns Tower Place Festival Shopping Center ("Tower Place").
The remaining 85% interest in the joint venture is owned by Murray Income
Properties I, Ltd., a publicly-registered real estate limited partnership, the
general partners of which are affiliates of the General Partners.  The
Partnership also acquired Paddock Place Shopping Center ("Paddock Place") on
December 17, 1986, Germantown Collection Shopping Center ("Germantown") on
February 9, 1988, and 1202 Industrial Place (an office/warehouse facility) on
February 26, 1988.  All acquisitions were paid for in cash.  For a more
detailed description of the joint venture interest and the properties acquired
by the Partnership, see "Item 2.  Properties".

     The Partnership is in competition for tenants for its properties with
other real estate limited partnerships as well as with individuals,
corporations, real estate investment trusts, pension funds and other entities
engaged in the ownership and operation of retail real estate.  When evaluating
a particular location to lease, a tenant may consider many factors, including,
but not limited to, space availability, rental rates, lease terms, access,
parking, quality of construction, and quality of management.  While the General
Partners believe that the Partnership's properties are generally competitive
with regard to these factors, there can be no assurance that, in the view of a
prospective tenant, other retail properties will not be more attractive.

     Tower Place Festival Shopping Center.  At December 31, 1996, Tower Place
was 100% leased.  One tenant, General Cinema, leases 27.8% of the total
rentable space of the property and another, J&K Cafeterias, leases 10.6% of the
total rentable space.  The General Cinema lease expires on September 30, 2006,
with the tenant having the option to extend the term of the lease for two
successive terms of five years each.  The J&K Cafeteria lease expires on April
30, 2004, and the tenant has the option to renew for two periods of five years
each.  At December 31, 1995, Tower Place was 99% leased.

     Tower Place is subject to competition from similar types of properties in
the vicinity in which it is located.  The following information on such
competitors has been obtained from sources believed reliable by the
Partnership.  The accuracy of this information was not independently verified
by the Partnership.

                                    PART II

ITEM 5.   MARKET FOR THE PARTNERSHIP'S LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS AND
          RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS.

     A public market for Interests does not exist and is not likely to develop.
Consequently, a Limited Partner may not be able to liquidate its investment in
the event of emergency or for any other reason, and Interests may not be
readily accepted as collateral for a loan.  Further, the transfer of Interests
is subject to certain limitations.  For a description of such limitations, see
Article XIII of the Agreement of Limited Partnership as contained in the
Prospectus dated February 20, 1986 filed as part of Amendment No. 1 to
Registrant's Form S-11 Registration Statement (File No. 33- 2394) attached
hereto as Exhibit 99b.

     As of December 31, 1996, there were 2,335 record holders, owning an
aggregate of 314,687 Interests.

     The Partnership made its initial Cash Distribution from Operations
following the quarter ended November 30, 1986, the first complete quarter
subsequent to the acceptance of subscriptions for the minimum number of
Interests offered, and has continued to make distributions after each
subsequent quarter.  See "Item 6.  Selected Financial Data" for the cash
distributions per Interest during the years ended December 31, 1992 through
December 31, 1996.  The Partnership intends to continue making Cash
Distributions from Operations on a quarterly basis.

     The Partnership Agreement provides that under certain circumstances, the
General Partners may, in their sole discretion and upon the request of a
Limited Partner, repurchase the Interests held by such Limited Partner.  Murray
Realty Investors IX, Inc. is obligated to set aside 25% of its share of Cash
Distributions from Operations and Crozier Partners IX, Ltd. is obligated to set
aside 25% of its 5% share of Cash Distributions from Operations that is
subordinated to the prior receipt by the Limited Partners of a non-cumulative
7% annual return from Cash Distributions from Operations for this purpose.  Any
such repurchase shall be subject to the availability of funds set aside and the
other terms and conditions set forth in the Partnership Agreement.  For
information on such terms and conditions, see Section 10.17 of the Agreement of
Limited Partnership as contained in amendment number nine to the Agreement of
Limited Partnership contained in the Proxy Statement dated October 11, 1989
attached hereto as Exhibit 99c.  As of December 31, 1996, no funds were
available for this purpose.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

    As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had cash, cash equivalents and
certificates of deposit of $1,817,330, which included $1,786,967 invested in
certificates of deposit and other money market instruments.  Such amounts
represent cash generated from operations and working capital reserves.  The
increase in cash and cash equivalents from December 31, 1995 to December 31,
1996 is primarily due to an increase in the net cash flow generated from the
operations of the Partnership's properties.

    Rental income from leases is accrued using the straight line method over
the related lease terms.  At December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, there
were $211,854 and $239,622, respectively, of accounts receivable related to
such accruals.  Accounts receivable also consist of tenant receivables,
receivables for rents collected (but not yet remitted to the Partnership by the
property management companies managing the properties), and interest receivable
on short-term investments.  The decrease in accounts receivable of $60,241
(exclusive of bad debts and recoveries) from December 31, 1995 to December 31,
1996 is primarily due to decreases in receivables for rent collected (but not
yet remitted by the property management companies) at Germantown, receivables
related to the accruals described above at Germantown and 1202 Industrial
Place, and tenant receivables at Paddock Place.

    Other assets consist primarily of deferred leasing costs.  The increase in
other assets of $83,571 is primarily due to an increase (exclusive of
amortization) in leasing commissions.

    During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Partnership made Cash
Distributions from Operations totaling $1,926,636.  Subsequent to December 31,
1996, the Partnership made a Cash Distribution from Operations of $461,590,
which related to the three months ended December 31, 1996.  The funds
distributed were derived from the net cash flow generated from operations of
the Partnership's properties and from interest earned, net of administrative
expenses, on funds invested in short-term money market instruments and
certificates of deposit.

    Future liquidity is currently expected to result from cash generated from
the operations of the Partnership's properties (which could be affected
negatively in the event of weakened occupancies and/or rental rates), interest
earned on funds invested in short-term money market instruments and
certificates of deposit, and ultimately through the sale of the Partnership's
properties.

    Market conditions remained stable, or improved slightly, in all of the
markets in which the Partnership owns property.  Average occupancy increased at
both Tower Place and Paddock Place and remained 100% at 1202 Industrial Place.
Average occupancy at Germantown decreased from 100% in 1995 to 99% in 1996.
The average annual lease rate at December 31, 1996 increased at all four
properties compared to the average lease rate at year-end 1995.  Germantown and
Paddock Place continue to benefit from restrictive zoning and the lack of
available land for retail development in their submarkets in Germantown
(Memphis) and Nashville, respectively.  Although there has been a significant
amount of retail development in both of these cities, it has occurred in areas
which are not in close proximity to the Partnership's properties and,
therefore, should not have a material impact on the performance of Germantown
and Paddock Place.  Although the Charlotte market has remained strong during
1996, there has been continued development of both neighborhood and larger
power shopping centers, some of which have been built within close proximity to
Tower Place.  Thus far the new development has not adversely impacted occupancy
or rental rates at Tower Place.  The Dallas-Fort Worth industrial market also
remained very strong in 1996, reflecting the healthy job growth that this area
experienced last year.  This employment growth creates a need for real estate
facilities and, in fact, published reports project that approximately seven
million square feet of industrial space was absorbed in Dallas-Fort Worth in
1996.  This has spurred an increase in new development which could eventually
have a negative impact on occupancy and rental rates.

</TABLE>

    Rental income at Paddock Place increased $121,586 (11%) for the year ended
December 31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, primarily
due to an increase in rental rates, an increase in percentage rent received
from J.  Alexander's Restaurant and the receipt of a $40,000 fee as
consideration for the termination of the Waldenbooks' lease.  Rental income
decreased $23,850 (2%) for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1994, primarily due to a decrease in the reimbursement
of real estate taxes partially offset by an increase in percentage rent
received from J. Alexander's Restaurant.

    Paddock Place averaged 97% occupancy for the year ended December 31, 1996,
a two percent increase over the previous year.  Three new leases totalling
4,560 square feet were signed with the tenants taking occupancy in 1996.  In
March the Partnership terminated the lease of a furniture store who occupied
5,222 square feet and whose lease was to expire in August.  A new 41 month
lease was signed with a furniture store who took occupancy immediately upon the
termination of the prior lease.  Two tenants who occupy 1,781 square feet
renewed their leases for five years and one tenant who occupies 4,600 square
feet renewed its lease for three years.  One tenant who occupied 1,330 square
feet vacated its space prior to expiration of its lease.  This tenant has
continued to pay rent.  Another tenant who occupied 2,616 square feet also
vacated its space prior to the expiration of its lease and has subsequently
filed bankruptcy.  As of December 31, 1996, Paddock Place was 100% occupied.

    Rental income at Germantown increased $7,790 (1%) for the year ended
December 31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995 due to an
increase in rental rates and an increase in tenant reimbursements for common
area maintenance costs.  Rental income at Germantown increased $22,254 (2%) for
the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31,
1994 due to an increase in percentage rents received from two tenants and an
increase in the reimbursement of insurance costs.

    Occupancy at Germantown averaged 99% for the year ended December 31, 1996,
a one percent decrease from the previous year.  One new lease for 1,024 square
feet was signed and this tenant took occupancy during 1996.  One tenant who
occupied 642 square feet vacated its space upon expiration of its lease.  This
space was subsequently leased and the new tenant took occupancy in February.

Three tenants who occupy 3,534 square feet renewed their leases for three
years.  Another tenant who occupies 1,100 square feet renewed its lease for 29
months.  One tenant who occupied 2,691 square feet vacated its space upon
expiration of its lease.  As of December 31, 1996, Germantown was 95% occupied.

    Rental income at 1202 Industrial Place increased $6,634 (1%) for the year
ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995
primarily due to an increase in tenant reimbursements for insurance costs.
Rental income at 1202 Industrial Place increased $21,016 (5%) for the year
ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994
primarily due to an increase in the reimbursement of real estate taxes and
common area maintenance costs.

    Occupancy at 1202 Industrial Place averaged 100% for the year ended
December 31, 1996, unchanged from the previous year.  As of December 31, 1996,
1202 Industrial Place was 100% occupied.

    "Equity in earnings of joint venture" represents the Partnership's 15%
interest in the earnings of Tower Place Joint Venture.  Rental income at Tower
Place increased $118,175 (7%) for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared
to the year ended December 31, 1995 primarily due to an increase in rental
rates along with an increase in percentage rent received from J&K Cafeterias
and an increase in tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance costs,
offset by lower tenant reimbursements for real estate taxes and insurance
costs.  Tower Place's total operating expenses increased with increases in
repair and maintenance costs, property management fees, and landscaping costs
offset by decreases in leasing and promotion costs, insurance and real estate
taxes.  Rental income at Tower Place increased $71,160 (5%) for the year ended
December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994 with
increases in rental income and increases in reimbursements for real estate
taxes and insurance costs.  The following information details the rental income
generated, bad debt expense incurred, and average occupancy for the years ended

     Property operating expenses consist primarily of utility costs, repair and
maintenance costs, leasing and promotion costs, real estate taxes, insurance
and property management fees.  Total property operating expenses increased
$75,745 (11%) for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the year
ended December 31, 1995.  The increase is due to higher repair and maintenance
costs, utilities costs, snow removal costs, landscaping costs, property
management fees, insurance costs, and real estate taxes.  Property operating
expenses at Germantown increased $19,409 (7%) primarily because of increases in
parking lot repair and maintenance costs, landscaping costs and utilities.
Property operating expenses at Paddock Place increased $20,827 (8%) primarily
because of increases in utilities, snow removal costs and property management
fees.  Property operating expenses at 1202 Industrial Place increased $35,509
(27%) primarily because of increases in utilities, parking lot repair and
maintenance costs, insurance and real estate taxes.

     Total property operating expenses increased $8,646 (1%) for the year ended
December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994.  The
increase was due to higher repair and maintenance costs and insurance costs.
These increases were offset by lower utility costs, landscaping costs, legal
fees and real estate taxes.

     General and administrative expenses incurred are related to legal and
accounting costs, rent, investor services costs, salaries and benefits and
various other costs required for the administration of the Partnership.
General and administrative expenses increased $45,622 (17%) for the year ended
December 31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995.  The
Partnership became subject to electronic filing requirements with the
Securities and Exchange Commission during the year ended December 31, 1995.
Costs associated with filing the 1995 Form 10-K and quarterly Form 10-Q's for
1996 caused the Partnership's compliance costs to increase.  Also, legal costs
increased because of due diligence performed on and negotiations held with
limited partners who wanted to acquire the Partnership's investor list in order
to solicit the partners to purchase their interests.  The Partnership also
incurred additional printing and postage costs to respond to all limited
partners regarding these solicitations.  General and administrative expenses
decreased $8,389 (3%) for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1994, primarily as a result of lower amortization of
organization costs.

     Bad debt expense (recoveries), remained flat for the year ended December
31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995 with each of the
Partnership's properties experiencing fewer collection problems.  Also, the
Partnership has been able to recover $4,549 in previously reserved tenant
receivables at Paddock Place.  Bad debt expense remained flat for the year
ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994 with
each of the Partnership's properties experiencing fewer collection problems.

     The effect of inflation on the results of operations for the years ended

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



The Partners
Murray Income Properties II, Ltd.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Murray Income Properties II,
Ltd. (a limited partnership) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related
statements of earnings, changes in partners' equity and cash flows for each of
the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1996.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Murray Income Properties II,
Ltd. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December
31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                      THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996

1.  ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

    The Partnership was formed December 23, 1985 by filing a Certificate and
Agreement of Limited Partnership with the Secretary of State of the State of
Texas.  The Partnership Agreement authorized the issuance of up to 500,000
limited partnership interests at a price of $100 each, of which 314,687 limited
partnership interests were issued.   Proceeds from the sale of limited
partnership interests, net of related selling commissions, dealer-manager fees
and other offering costs, are recorded as contributed capital.

    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 income and expenses during the reporting
period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

    Rental income is recognized as earned under the leases.  Accordingly, the
Partnership accrues rental income for the full period of occupancy using the
straight line method over the related terms.  At December 31, 1996 and 1995,
there were $211,854 and $239,622, respectively, of accounts receivable related
to such accruals.

    Other assets consist primarily of deferred leasing costs which are
amortized using the straight line method over the lives of the related leases.

    Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the respective
assets using the straight line method.  The estimated useful lives of the
buildings and improvements range from three to twenty-five years.

    Effective January 1, 1995 the Partnership implemented Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," (SFAS 121)
which establishes the method of accounting for rental property when
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable.  The Partnership periodically reevaluates the propriety of the
carrying amounts of investment properties to determine whether current events
and circumstances warrant an adjustment to such carrying amounts.  Such
evaluations are performed utilizing annual appraisals performed by independent
appraisers as well as internally developed estimates of expected undiscounted
future cash flows.  In the event the carrying value of an individual property
exceeds expected future undiscounted cash flows, the property is written down
to the most recently appraised value.  Since inception of the Partnership, none
of the Partnership's properties have required write downs.

    No provision for income taxes has been made as the liabilities for such
taxes are those of the individual Partners rather than the Partnership.  The
Partnership files its tax return on the accrual basis used for Federal income
tax purposes.

                            (A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    Earnings and cash distributions per limited partnership interest are based
upon the limited partnership interests outstanding at year-end and the net
earnings and cash distributions allocated to the Limited Partners in accordance
with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, as amended.

    Certificates of deposit are held at commercial banks and are stated at
cost, which approximates market.  For purposes of reporting cash flows, the
Partnership considers all certificates of deposit and highly liquid debt
instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.

    The following information relates to estimated fair values of the
Partnership's financial instruments as of December 31, 1996 and 1995.  For cash
and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, accounts and notes receivable,
accounts payable, accrued property taxes payable, and security deposits, the
carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these
instruments.

    2.  PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT

    Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, net profits or losses
of the Partnership and cash distributions are generally allocated 98% to the
Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partners, except that all depreciation
shall be allocated to those Limited Partners subject to Federal income taxes.
Cash Distributions from the sale or refinancing of a property are allocated as
follows:

    (a)  First, all Cash Distributions from Sales or Refinancings shall be
         allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the Non-corporate
         General Partner until the Limited Partners have been returned their
         Original Invested Capital from Cash Distributions from Sales or
         Refinancings, plus their Preferred Return from either Cash
         Distributions from Operations or Cash Distributions from Sales or
         Refinancings.

    (b)  Next, all Cash Distributions from Sales or Refinancings shall be
         allocated 99% to the General Partners and 1% to the Non-corporate
         General Partner in an amount equal to any unpaid Cash Distributions
         from Operations subordinated to the Limited Partners' 7%
         non-cumulative annual return.  Such 99% shall be allocated 62 1/2% to
         the Non-corporate General Partner and 37 1/2% to the Corporate General
         Partner.

    (c)  Next, all Cash Distributions from Sales or Refinancings shall be
         allocated 1% to the Non-corporate General Partner and 99% to the
         Limited Partners and the General Partners.  Such 99% will be allocated
         85% to the Limited Partners and 15% to the General Partners.  Such 15%
         shall be allocated 62 1/2% to the Non-corporate General Partner and 37
         1/2% to the Corporate General Partner.

This First Amendment is made and entered into this 1st day of September, 1996,

("MURRAY") and MAVRICC MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, INC. ("MMS").

The parties hereto desire to amend the Data Processing System Use Agreement
(the "Agreement") entered into by them with an effective date of  September 1,
1993.

In consideration of the mutual covenants and consideration furnished to each
other hereunder, the sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the parties agree as
follows:

1.   TERM.      The Agreement shall remain in effect through August 31, 1998.
     -----                                                                   
                
2.   PRICING.   Exhibit A to the Agreement is amended as follows:
     --------                                                    
                
                Commencing on September 1, 1996, the monthly charge for services
                rendered to active Funds shall be equal to $.91 per account. 
                Postage up to $.32 per piece for four quarterly distribution

                desires to have the accounts available on-line; such Funds
                charges shall be invoiced semi-annually rather than monthly as
                for active Funds. 


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day and

                                  THE OFFERING

        Subject to the conditions set forth in this Prospectus and in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement, the
Partnership offers through the Dealer Manager 300,000 Interests at $100 per
Interest, subject to the right of the Dealer Manager to increase the offering
by up to an additional 200,000 Interests. Except for investors in certain
states that have imposed higher purchase requirements as set forth in the
Subscription Agreement, a form of which is included as Exhibit B, the minimum
subscription for an Individual Retirement Account or a Keogh Plan is 20
Interests. The minimum subscription for other investors is 50 Interests.

        The Interests are being offered on a "best efforts" basis through
Murray Securities Corporation (the "Dealer Manager"), an Affiliate of the
General Partners. As compensation for their services in soliciting and
obtaining subscribers for the purchase of the Interests, the Partnership has
agreed to pay the Dealer Manager a commission of up to a maximum of 8% of the
gross proceeds on all sales made directly by it or by other dealers in
accordance with the following schedule:

</TABLE>   

        Subscriptions may be combined for the purpose of determining the total
commissions payable in the case of subscriptions made by any investor who,
subsequent to his initial purchase of Interests, subscribes for the purchase of
additional Interests. To be eligible for combination, subscriptions must be
identical for all of the following: registration, type of ownership and tax
identification or social security number. Any request to combine subscriptions
will be subject to verification by the General Partners that all of such
subscriptions were made by a single investor. In such an event, the commission
payable with respect to the initial purchase of Interests will be computed
using the commission schedule set forth above. The commission payable with
respect to any subsequent purchase of Interests will equal the commission that
would have been payable in accordance with the commission schedule set forth
above if all purchases had been made simultaneously, less the commissions that
previously have been paid with respect to all prior purchases of Interests by
such an investor. The difference between 8% of the gross proceeds from the sale
of Interests and the amount payable to the Dealer Manager with respect to such
sale will be reimbursed to the Limited Partner as soon as possible after his
admission to the Partnership or, at the option of such Limited Partner, as
evidenced on his executed subscription agreement in the form of Exhibit B
hereto, will be applied to

"Terminated General Partner") shall be purchased by the Partnership for a
purchase price determined according to the provisions of Section 12.3 hereof.
The last to remain of MRI and Crozier Partners, and the successors thereof,
shall not resign or withdraw from the Partnership without the concurrence of a
majority in interest of the Limited Partners. If such retirement or resignation
is voluntary, the purchase price shall be paid in the form of a non-interest
bearing unsecured promissory note with principal payable, if at all, from
distributions which the Terminated General Partner otherwise would have
received had the Terminated General Partner not resigned or retired. If such
termination is involuntary, the Partnership shall have the option to pay the
purchase price of such interest to the Terminated General Partner either in
cash or by a promissory note of the Partnership, payable to such Terminated
General Partner in a face amount equal to said purchase price and containing
provisions as would be usual and customary in a commercial promissory note,
including provisions for interest, at a rate equal to the prime rate of
interest from time to time charged by MBank Dallas, N.A. to its best commercial
customers (but in no event to exceed the maximum rate permitted by law to be
paid to the Terminated General Partners by the Partnership), such interest to
be payable at the time of each installment of principal, which shall be payable
as the Terminated General Partner and the Partnership may agree, or if they
cannot so agree, then annually over a period of five years from the date of the
Terminated General Partner's removal, adjudication of bankruptcy, insolvency or
dissolution. No prepayment penalty shall be charged to the Partnership for the
early payment of its note.

        12.3  The fair market value of the Terminated General Partner's
interest to be purchased by the Partnership according to the provisions of
Section 12.2 above shall be determined by agreement between the Terminated
General Partner and the Partnership. If the Terminated General Partner and the
Partnership cannot agree upon the fair market value of such Partnership
interest within 90 days after the date of the Terminated General Partner's
resignation, removal, adjudication of bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution,
then the Terminated General Partner and the Partnership shall each select an
independent appraiser within the next thirty days. If such appraisers fail to
agree on the fair market value of the Terminated General Partner's interest
within the next 90 days, then the two appraisers shall jointly appoint a third
appraiser whose determination shall be final and binding. The Terminated
General Partner and the Partnership shall each compensate their respective
appraisers, and the compensation of the third appraiser, if necessary, shall be
borne equally by each party. If the Partnership or the Terminated General
Partner fails to appoint an independent appraiser within the thirty day period
provided for in this paragraph, then the fair market value of the Terminated
General Partner's interest will be determined in accordance with the then
current rules of the American Arbitration Association, and the expense of such
arbitration shall be borne equally by the Terminated General Partner and the 
Partnership.

        12.4  Within 90 days after the resignation, removal, adjudication of
bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of a General Partner (except that a
General Partner shall not voluntarily withdraw from the Partnership without
complying with the terms of Section 12.2 and without at least 90 days' prior
written notice to the other General Partner and the Limited Partners of
intention to withdraw, and in such event, within the period from the date of
the notice of intention to withdraw to the date of withdrawal specified in the
notice of intention), Limited Partners holding a majority of the Interests may
elect to continue the business of the Partnership and, if they desire to do so,
may elect a successor General Partner or continue the business of the
Partnership with the remaining General Partner.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                       TRANSFER OF A PARTNERSHIP INTEREST

        13.1  The General Partners may, pursuant to this Article XIII, admit as
a substituted Limited Partner any successor in interest to a Limited Partner
who is either deceased or under legal disability or who is an assignee of a
Limited Partner.

<PAGE>   2
     13.2  Subject to the provisions of this Article XIII, compliance with the
suitability standards imposed by the Partnership, applicable "blue sky" laws
and the applicable rules of any other governmental authority, a Limited Partner
shall have the right to assign the whole or any portion of his Interests (but
not less than 50 Interests unless to an Individual Retirement Account or Keogh
Plan and then not less than 20 Interests) by a written assignment, the terms of
which are not in contravention of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
Any assignment in contravention of any of the provisions of this Article XIII 
shall be of no force and effect and shall not be binding upon or recognized by 
the Partnership.

            (a) Except as provided in (b) below, an assignee of a Limited 
        Partner's Interest who is not admitted as a substituted Limited 
        Partner shall have no right to require any information or account of 
        the Partnership's transactions or to inspect the Partnership's books; 
        he shall only be entitled to receive distributions from the Partnership 
        and the share of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit attributable
        to the Interests acquired by reason of such assignment from the first 
        day of the month following the month in which the written instrument 
        of assignment, executed by the assignor and in form and substance 
        reasonably satisfactory to the General Partners, and other documents 
        reasonably deemed necessary or appropriate by the General Partners 
        (as, for example, evidence that the assignee meets investor suitability
        standards) shall have been received by the Partnership.

            (b)  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, both the 
        Partnership and the General Partners shall be entitled to (i) treat 
        the assignor of such Interests as the absolute owner thereof in all 
        respects, and shall incur no liability for allocations of income, gain, 
        loss, deduction or credit or for distributions or for transmittal of 
        reports and notices required to be given to holders of Interests, 
        until the last day of the month in which the Partnership shall have 
        received the written assignment executed by the assignor in form and 
        substance reasonably satisfactory to the General Partners and other 
        documents reasonably deemed necessary or appropriate by the General 
        Partners (including evidence of the assignee's compliance with 
        standards imposed by applicable "blue sky" laws) or (ii) treat the
        assignee as a substituted Limited Partner in the place of his assignor,
        should the General Partners deem, in their absolute discretion, that 
        such treatment is in the best interests of the Partnership for any of 
        its purposes or for any of the purposes of this Agreement.

     13.3  No assignee shall have the right to become a substituted Limited
Partner in place of his assignor unless all of the following conditions are
satisfied:

            (a)  The written consent of the General Partners to such 
        substitution shall be obtained, the granting of which shall not be 
        unreasonably withheld;

            (b)  A duly executed written instrument of assignment setting forth
        the intention of the assignor that the assignee shall become a 
        substituted Limited Partner in his place shall have been filed with
        the Partnership;
  
            (c)  The Interests being acquired by the assignee shall consist of
        at least 20 Interests if such assignee is an Individual Retirement 
        Account or Keogh Plan and at least 50 Interests if such assignee is not
        an Individual Retirement Account or Keogh Plan and, if the assignor 
        shall retain any Interests, such retention shall consist of at least 
        20 Interests if such assignor is an Individual Retirement Account or
        Keogh Plan and at least 50 Interests if such assignor is not an
        Individual Retirement Account or Keogh Plan;

            (d)  The assignor and assignee shall execute and acknowledge such
        other instruments as the General Partners reasonably deem necessary
        or desirable to effect such assignment and admission, including,
        but not limited to, evidence of the assignee's compliance with
        standards imposed by any applicable "blue sky" laws, the written
        acceptance and adoption by the assignee of the provisions of this
        Agreement and his execution, acknowledgement and delivery to the 
        General 

                                      A-21

        Partners of a special power of attorney, the form and content of which
        are more fully described in Article XXI hereof; and

             (e)  The Partnership shall have received from the assignor or
        assignee a transfer fee to cover all reasonable expenses of the 
        transfer, not to exceed $500 per transaction, but such transfer fee
        may be waived by the General Partners, in their discretion.

        13.4  Any person admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited 
Partner shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement as if an
original party to it.

        13.5  The General Partners shall amend the certificate of limited 
partnership at least once each quarter to add assignees as substituted Limited
Partners.

        13.6  Upon the death or legal disability of an individual who is a
Limited Partner, his personal representative shall have all of the rights of
a Limited Partner for the purpose of settling or managing his estate, and such
power as the decedent or incompetent possessed to constitute a successor as an
assignee of his Interests and to join with such assignee in making application
to substitute such assignee as a Limited Partner. However, such personal
representative shall not have the right to become a substituted Limited
Partner in the place of his predecessor in interest unless the conditions of
this Article XIII (other than the requirement that the assignor execute and
acknowledge instruments) are first satisfied.

        13.7  Upon the adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency, dissolution
or other cessation of existence as a legal entity of a Limited Partner which
is not an individual, the authorized representative of such entity shall have
all of the rights of a Limited Partner for the purpose of effecting the orderly
winding up and disposition of the business of such entity and such power as
such entity possessed to constitute a successor as an assignee of its
Interests and to join with such assignee in making application to substitute
such assignee as a Limited Partner. However, such representative shall not
have the right to become a substituted Limited Partner in the place of his
predecessor in interest unless the conditions of this Article XIII (other
than the requirement that the assignor execute and acknowledge instruments) are
first satisfied.

        13.8  A General Partner may not assign his or its interest as a General
Partner to anyone other than the Partnership as provided in Article XII of
this Agreement.

        13.9  No assignment of any Interests may be made if the Interests
sought to be assigned, when added to the total of all other Interests assigned
within the period of 12 consecutive months prior to the proposed date of
assignment, would, in the opinion of counsel for the Partnership, result in
the termination of the Partnership under Section 708 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1954, as amended.

        13.10  Any assignment, sale, exchange or other transfer in contravention
of any of the provisions of this Article XIII shall be void and ineffectual,
and shall not bind or be recognized by the Partnership.

                                  ARTICLE XIV

                                INDEMNIFICATION

        14.1  No General Partner and no officer, director, partner or Affiliate
of a General Partner shall be liable to the Partnership or any Limited Partner
for any loss or damage suffered by the Partnership or any Limited Partner which
arises out of any error in judgment or other action or inaction not 
constituting negligence (gross or ordinary), fraud or breach of fiduciary duty
which was taken in good faith, in accordance with the exercise of reasonable
business judgment and pursuant to a determination that such course of conduct 
was in the best interest of the Partnership. The Partnership or its receiver
or trustee shall indemnify, save harmless and pay all judgments and claims
against the General Partners (and each of them) or their officers, directors,
partners and Affiliates from any liability, loss or damage incurred by them
or by the Partnership by reason of any act performed or omitted to be

                                      A-22

<PAGE>   1
                                                                     EXHIBIT 99c

for this purpose include only the price of goods and materials paid to 
independent third parties and direct costs incurred by the General Partners or
their Affiliates in the transaction, including overhead directly attributable
to the transaction but excluding general and administrative overhead. Further,
all such transactions between the Partnership and a General Partner or an
Affiliate of a General Partner must be pursuant to the terms of a written
contract between the Partnership and such General Partner or Affiliate which
precisely described the services to be rendered or the goods or materials
to be provided and the compensation therefor.

        These provisions are inconsistent with the direct management by the
Partnership of its business, operations and affairs and the proposed
restructuring wherein the Partnership and Murray Income Properties, Ltd.-84
will employ their own executive and managerial personnel, secretaries, 
accountants and other staff, rent office space, pay their own utility bills,
and in general run their own business, operations and affairs and share
expenses. Murray Income Properties, Ltd.-84 is an Affiliate of the Partnership.
Consequently, this amendment proposes to create an exception to the scope of
Section 10.9 that would allow the Partnership, in conjunction with Murray
Income Properties, Ltd.-84, to manage its own business and affairs and
conduct its own operations through its own staff out of its own office and
to share personnel, office and other general and administrative overhead 
expenses with Murray Income Properties, Ltd.-84. Further, the amendment
allows the salaried personnel to be persons who are Affiliates of the
General Partners so long as their compensation and benefits are comparable
to the amounts that would be paid for their services if they were not 
Affiliates of a General Partner.

        The Amendment. A new paragraph is hereby added to the end of 
Section 10.9 that reads as follows:

            "Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 10.9 or
        elsewhere in this Agreement, the Partnership may directly conduct,
        operate and manage its business and affairs. The Partnership may
        employ, either alone or in association with Murray Income Properties,
        Ltd.-84, managerial and executive personnel, secretaries, accountants
        and other support staff in the conduct of the business, operations
        and affairs of the Partnership. If any person employed by the
        Partnership is an Affiliate of a General Partner (or if an Affiliate
        of a General Partner is employed by Murray Income Properties, Ltd.-84
        and the Partnership is to reimburse Murray Income Properties, Ltd.-84
        for a portion of the compensation and benefits paid to such person),
        the compensation and benefits paid by the Partnership (or by Murray
        Income Properties, Ltd.-84 as appropriate) for the services of such
        person shall be comparable to the amount that would be paid to such
        person if such person was not an Affiliate of a General Partner.
        The Partnership may reimburse Murray Income Properties, Ltd.-84 for 
        that proportion of any expenditure made by Murray Income Properties,
        Ltd.-84 which the General Partners deem to be the fair, just and
        equitable share that should be borne by the Partnership and, 
        conversely, the Partnership may pay, and seek reimbursement from,
        Murray Income Properties, Ltd.-84 for that proportion of any 
        expenditure made by the Partnership which the General Partners 
        deem to be the fair, just and equitable share that should be borne
        by Murray Income Properties, Ltd.-84."

                                Amendment No. 9

        Explanation of Amendment.  Section 10.17 requires MRI to allocate
25% of its share of Cash Distributions from Operations to a "Repurchase
Fund" for the purchase of Interests upon the request of a Limited Partner.
MRI is permitted to commingle the amount allocated to the "Repurchase Fund"
with other assets of MRI. To the present time, however, MRI has not been
paid any Cash Distributions from Operations since the allocation and payment
of Cash Distributions to MRI is subordinated to the prior receipt by the
Limited Partners of a noncumulative 7% annual return from either Cash 
Distributions from Operations or Cash Distributions from Sales or
Refinancings, or both, on their Average Annual Unreturned Invested Capital.

                                      (vi)
<PAGE>   2
        Since the amendments herein will reduce the allocation of Cash
Distributions from Operations to MRI from 8% to 3% and will reallocate 5% of
such 8% to Crozier Partners (subordinate, of course, in each instance to the
prior receipt by the Limited Partners of a noncumulative 7% annual return
from either Cash Distributions from Operations or Cash Distributions from
Sales or Refinancings, or both), this amendment will require both MRI and 
Crozier Partners, in the proportions of 3/8ths for MRI and 5/8ths for Crozier
Partners, respectively, to allocate 25% of their respective shares of any
such subordinated Cash Distributions from Operations to a "Repurchase Fund"
to be established by each of them, respectively.

        The Amendment. The third and fourth sentences in Section 10.17 are
hereby deleted and there is hereby substituted in lieu thereof the following
three sentences:

        "MRI will allocate 25% of its share of Cash Distributions from
        Operations to a "Repurchase Fund" and Crozier Partners will allocate
        to a "Repurchase Fund" 25% of its 5% share of Cash Distributions
        from Operations that is subordinated to the prior receipt by the
        Limited Partners of a noncumulative 7% annual return from either
        Cash Distributions from Operations or Cash Distributions from Sales or
        Refinancings, or both, on their Average Annual Unreturned Invested
        Capital. MRI's share of Cash Distributions from Operations allocated
        to the Repurchase Fund will be commingled with other assets of MRI and
        Crozier Partners' share of Cash Distributions from Operations
        allocated to the Repurchase Fund will be commingled with other
        assets of Crozier Partners. Any repurchase of Interests pursuant to
        this Section 10.15 shall be in the proportions of 3/8ths by MRI
        and 5/8ths by Crozier Partners, respectively."

                                Amendment No.10

        Explanation of Amendment.  Section 11.3 provides in respect of voting on
any matter on which the Limited Partners are entitled to vote that each Limited
Partner will be deemed to be "...the holder of only those Interests shown on
Exhibit A, as amended by the last-filed certificate of limited partnership." The
Texas Uniform Limited Partnership Act requires the filing of a certificate of
limited partnership that lists the name and address of each limited partner of a
limited partnership and the amount of the contribution of each limited partner
to the partnership. The certificate of limited partnership filed in the office
of the Secretary of State is authoritative as to the identity of limited
partners. The Texas Uniform Limited Partnership also does not permit an owner of
a limited partnership interest to be considered a "limited partner," with the
voting and other rights appurtenant to that status, unless the owner is named in
the certificate of limited partnership. The Texas Revised Limited Partnership
Act that will be adopted by these amendments no longer requires that the
identity of the limited partners be disclosed in the certificate of limited
partnership filed in the office of the Secretary of State, which filing was
often burdensome on limited partnerships and considered by some people to be an
invasion of their financial privacy. Instead, the Texas Revised Limited
Partnership Act requires the limited partnership to maintain records showing the
name and mailing address of each partner and a written statement of the date on
which each partner in a limited partnership became a partner. This amendment
makes the records of the Partnership authoritative as to the identity of the
holders of Interests entitled to vote on any particular matter that is submitted
to a vote of the Limited Partners.

        The Amendment.  The Last sentence of Section 11.3 is hereby amended
to read as follows:

        "For purposes of determining the number of votes which he is entitled
        to cast, a Limited Partner shall be deemed to be the holder of only
        those Interests which are reflected as owned by him by the records
        of the Partnership."

(1)     The Dealer Manager may authorize certain other broker-dealers who are
        members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., to
        sell Interests on a "best efforts" basis. In the event of sales by
        such other broker-dealers, the Dealer Manager has advised the
        Partnership that the Dealer Manager will reallow to such other broker-
        dealers all or a portion of the selling commissions with respect to 
        such sales. Such other broker-dealers, together with the Dealer 
        Manager, may also be reimbursed up to an additional 1/2% of gross 
        offering proceeds in connection with their due diligence activities.

(2)     See "The Offering" for a discussion of the rebate of selling commissions
        payable with respect to sales to one purchaser of more than 1,000
        Interests and the rebate of selling commissions and the dealer manager
        fee with respect to sales to officers, directors, partners, employees
        or Affiliates of the General Partners or their Affiliates.

(3)     For nonleveraged programs such as the Partnership, the NASAA
        Guidelines require that, at a minimum, 82% of the Limited Partners'
        capital contributions be committed to investment in properties.
        Investment in properties, as defined under the NASAA Guidelines,
        is the amount of capital contributions actually paid or allocated to
        the purchase, development, construction or improvement of properties
        acquired by the Partnership (including the purchase of properties,
        working capital reserves not in excess of 5% of gross offering proceeds
        and other cash payments such as interest and taxes but excluding front-
        end fees, defined as fees and expenses paid by any party for any 
        services rendered during the Partnership's organizational or 
        acquisition phase including organization and offering expenses, 
        acquisition fees, acquisition expenses and any other similar fees, 
        however designated). The remaining capital contributions not invested 
        in properties are available for the payment of Organizational and 
        Offering Expenses, selling commissions, acquisition fees and 
        acquisition expenses. Acquisition fees for this purpose shall be the 
        total of all fees and commissions paid by any party in connection 
        with the purchase or development of property by the Partnership, 
        including real estate commissions, acquisition fees, selection fees, 
        development fees, nonrecurring management fees, or any fees of a 
        similar nature,

                                       13
<PAGE>   5
        
        however designated, but excluding a development fee paid to a person not
        affiliated with the General Partners or their Affiliates in connection
        with actual development of property after acquisition by the
        Partnership. Acquisition expenses for this purpose include, but are not
        limited to, legal fees and expenses, travel and communication expenses,
        costs of appraisals, loan commitment and loan fees ("points"),
        nonrefundable option payments on properties not acquired, accounting
        fees and expenses, title insurance, and miscellaneous expenses related
        to selection and acquisition of properties, whether or not acquired. The
        Partnership will acquire its properties on an unleveraged basis. In
        addition, the Partnership will not pay any acquisition fees to the
        General Partners or their Affiliates and the total of acquisition fees
        to unaffiliated parties and acquisition expenses will not exceed 1% of
        the Limited Partners' capital contributions. Based on those assumptions
        and assuming the sale of 300,000 Interests with Organizational and
        Offering Expenses, selling commissions and the dealer manager fee equal
        to 13.0% of the Limited Partners' capital contributions, the amount that
        would be invested in properties would be equal to 86.0% of such
        contributions. The amount invested in Partnership properties will comply
        with the NASAA Guidelines limitations set forth above.

(4)     An Affiliate of the General Partners may purchase property in its own 
        name and temporarily hold title thereto for the purpose of facilitating 
        the acquisition of such property or any other purpose related to the
        business of the Partnership. In such event, such Affiliate may be 
        reimbursed for its costs incurred in acquiring and holding such real
        property prior to the acquisition of such property by the Partnership.
        Such costs will consist of the price paid by such Affiliate for
        such property, plus the amount of any net cash flow deficit or minus the
        amount of any net cash flow surplus incurred by such Affiliate during
        its ownership and operation of such property.

(5)     Any prediction of such dollar amount would necessarily involve 
        assumptions of future events that cannot be determined at this time.

(6)     To the extent a seller of property to the Partnership sets the sales 
        price at a level sufficient to cover the premium for title insurance,
        the Partnership, if effect, will pay the premium in the purchase price
        of the property.

(7)     The Partnership has entered into nonexclusive contracts with Dallas
        Title Company and Texas Title Company, Affiliates of the General
        Partners, pursuant to which each has agreed that, upon the request of
        the Partnership, it will handle the closing of purchases, sales,
        financings or refinancings by the Partnership of properties situated in
        Texas and will cause to be issued title insurance policies on such
        properties. Either of such title insurance agencies may receive a
        portion of the commission on premiums paid for title insurance by the
        Partnership or by a seller of real property to the Partnership. In
        Texas, title insurance premiums and the policy forms are prescribed by
        the State. Each contract provides that if such title insurance agency
        does not derive, in any calendar year, at least 75% if its gross income
        from persons or entities not affiliated with a General Partner, that
        agency's contract will terminate upon the earlier of 60 days after the
        end of the calendar year or as soon as the Partnership can arrange for
        another person or entity to perform such services. Each contract also
        provides that it may be terminated by either party, without penalty, on
        60 days' prior written notice and that such title insurance agency shall
        not render services or receive title insurance commissions in connection
        with the reinvestment of any proceeds from a sale or refinancing of
        Partnership properties.

(8)     The Partnership has entered into an agreement with Murray Management 
        Corporation, an Affiliate of the General Partners, pursuant to which
        Murray Management Corporation will be responsible for the management
        of each property and the collection of its rental income, for which
        services it will receive a monthly Property Management Fee. This
        Property Management Fee is payable for professional supervisory
        management services undertaken in connection with the operation of
        the Partnership's properties. In the case of apartment complexes,
        such fee shall include all leasing and releasing fees and bonuses,
        and leasing-related services. In the case of shopping centers, office
        buildings and office/showroom centers, where Murray Management
        Corporation is not responsible for leasing, re-leasing and leasing-
        related services with respect to

                                       14
        
                

<PAGE>   6
        the property, its fee shall not exceed 3% of gross revenues. 
        Notwithstanding the foregoing, a separate competitive fee may be paid
        for the one-time initial lease-up of a newly constructed property if
        such service is not included in the purchase price of the property, 
        provided that such fee shall not exceed the lesser of cost or 90%
        of the competitive price that would be charged by unaffiliated persons
        rendering similar services in the same or comparable geographic
        location. In the case of shopping centers, office buildings and office/
        showroom centers which are leased on a long-term net (or similar) 
        basis, a one-time initial leasing fee of 3% of gross revenues may be
        taken on each lease payable over the first five full years of the
        original term of the lease. Murray Management Corporation shall pay
        from the Property Management Fee, and not as an expense of the
        Partnership, the expenses of rendering supervisory property management
        services; provided, however, that the wages and expenses of on-site
        personnel engaged in the management, leasing and maintenance of the
        Partnership's properties and personnel, supplies, repairs, furniture
        and equipment costs and other costs directly attributable to the
        Partnership's property operations shall be deemed to be property
        operating expenses and as such shall be borne by the Partnership by
        reimbursement to Murray Management Corporation. Wages and other actual
        expenses of personnel may be allocated between properties of the
        Partnership and other properties managed by Murray Management
        Corporation if such properties are owned by (i) a public or private
        program sponsored by the General Partners or their Affiliates or any
        joint  venture in which a General Partner or an Affiliate is a party
        or (ii) an unaffiliated third party. Murray Management Corporation
        has the right to subcontract to third parties a portion or all of the
        management services to be rendered by it with respect to any particular
        property, provided that (a) Murray Management Corporation shall at all
        times remain responsible for the management of such property, (b)
        the Partnership shall not be required to pay for duplicative services
        and (c) the aggregate cost to the Partnership will not exceed the 
        amount which would be customarily charged in arm's-length transactions
        by others rendering similar services in the locality where the
        property is located, considering the size and type of each such
        property, if only one entity had provided all such services. The
        agreement between the Partnership and Murray Management Corporation
        may be terminated by either party, without penalty, on 60 days' prior
        written notice.

(9)     Except as set forth below, reimbursements to a General Partner or an 
        Affiliate of a General Partner shall not be allowed. A General Partner
        or an Affiliate of a General Partner may be reimbursed for: (a) the
        actual cost of goods and materials used for or by the Partnership and
        obtained from an entity not affiliated with a General Partner or an
        Affiliate of a General Partner; and (b) the lesser of the cost or
        90% of the competitive price charged by unaffiliated parties for (i)
        salaries and related salary expenses for services that could be
        performed directly for the Partnership by independent parties, including
        legal, accounting, transfer agent, data processing, duplicating
        and administration of investor accounts and (ii) Partnership reports
        and communications to investors. All such transactions shall be 
        pursuant to the terms of a written contract between the Partnership
        and such General Partner or Affiliate which precisely describes the
        services to be rendered or the goods or materials to be provided and
        the compensation therefor. No reimbursement shall be permitted for
        services for which the General Partners or Affiliates receive a
        separate fee or for (i) salaries, related salary expenses, traveling
        expenses, and other administrative items which are incurred by any
        Controlling Person or which are not directly attributable to the
        rendering of reimbursable services to the Partnership and (ii) any
        indirect expenses incurred in performing services for the Partnership,
        such as rent or depreciation, utilities, capital equipment, and other
        administrative items. "Controlling Person" for this purpose shall
        mean any person, regardless of title, who performs executive or senior
        management functions for the General Partners or Affiliates similar
        to those of directors, executive management and senior management, or
        any person who either holds 5% or more equity interest in the General
        Partners or Affiliates or has the power to direct or cause the
        direction of the General Partners or Affiliates, whether through the
        ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise, or, in the
        absence of a specific role or title, any person having the power to
        direct or cause the direction of the management level employees and
        policies of the General Partners or

                                       15

        
        
<PAGE>   7
        Affiliates. It is not intended that every person who carries a title
        such as vice president, senior vice president, secretary or treasurer 
        be included in the definition of Controlling Person. In no event shall
        any amount charged to the Partnership as a reimbursable expense by the
        General Partners exceed the lesser of the actual cost of such services
        or 90% of the amount which the Partnership would be required to pay to
        independent parties for comparable services. "Costs" for purposes of
        this paragraph shall include the price of goods and materials paid
        to independent third parties, and direct costs incurred by the General
        Partners or their Affiliates in the transactions including overhead
        directly attributable to the transaction but excluding general or
        administrative overhead. Notwithstanding the foregoing, reimbursements
        are also allowable for certain organizational and offering expenses
        and for the actual costs of on-site personnel engaged in the
        management, leasing and maintenance of the property of the Partnership
        as provided in note (8) above.

(10)    The Partnership has entered into a nonexclusive contract with Murray
        Insurance Agency, Inc., an Affiliate of the General Partners, pursuant
        to which, upon the request of the Partnership, such agency will endeavor
        to obtain fire, casualty, or similar insurance on the properties of
        the Partnership. Any commission on any casualty insurance brokered by
        it will not exceed the amount customarily received by it from the 
        brokerage of comparable policies for unaffiliated persons. Before such
        agency brokers any fire, casualty or similar insurance on any property
        of the Partnership, quotes must have been received from two unaffiliated
        insurance brokers for coverage and terms comparable to that proposed
        to be provided by such agency. No insurance will be brokered by the 
        Partnership through such agency unless the cost of such insurance will
        be no greater than the lower quote of the two unaffiliated insurance
        agencies. The contract with Murray Insurance Agency, Inc., provides
        that if such agency does not derive at least 75% of its gross income
        from business done with persons or entities not affiliated with a
        General Partner, that agency's contract will terminate upon the earlier
        of 60 days after the end of the calendar year or as soon as the
        Partnership can arrange for another person or entity to perform such
        services. The contract also provides that it may be terminated by 
        either party, without penalty, on 60 days' prior written notice.
        Murray General Agency, Inc., an Affiliate of the General Partners,
        will receive commissions on insurance premiums paid through Murray
        Insurance Agency, Inc., by virtue of contractual arrangements between
        it and Murray Insurance Agency, Inc.

(11)    The General Partners may open and maintain an interest-bearing 
        Partnership administrative account and property operating accounts at
        Murray Savings Association, a stock association organized under the
        Texas Savings and Loan Act. Murray Savings Association is a wholly-
        owned subsidiary of Murray Financial Corporation, an Affiliate of the
        General Partners. Such accounts are insured up to a maximum of
        $100,000 in the aggregate by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance
        Corporation ("FSLIC"). The General Partners will not permit the balance
        of such accounts to exceed the maximum amount insured by the FSLIC. 
        Murray Savings Association may receive indirect compensation to the 
        extent that Murray Savings Association's rate of return on the
        Partnership funds in such accounts exceeds the interest rate paid to the
        Partnership on such accounts. The Partnership will receive an interest
        rate competitive with similar accounts at unrelated institutions and
        will not be charged any servicing fees on the accounts.

(12)    It is not contemplated that a General Partner or any Affiliate of a
        General Partner will make a loan to the Partnership, but the Partnership
        Agreement permits a General Partner or any Affiliate of a General
        Partner to make a loan to the Partnership if the interest and other
        financing charges or fees on any such loan are not in excess of the
        amounts which would be charged by unaffiliated lending institutions
        on comparable loans for the same purpose in the same locality but not
        in excess of 2% over the prime rate of MBank Dallas, N.A. Any 
        financing charges or fees on any loan to the Partnership by a General
        Partner or an Affiliate of a General Partner will be only those 
        incurred by such General Partner or Affiliate in connection with the
        making of such loan. Neither a General Partner nor an Affiliate of 
        a General Partner will make a profit from the Partnership's payment
        of financing charges or fees. No property of the Partnership shall 
        secure

                                       16
        
<PAGE>   8
        any loan made to the Partnership by a General Partner or an Affiliate
        of a General Partner if, at the inception of the loan, any payment of
        principal or interest is to be made more than two years after the
        date of the loan. No loans, secured or unsecured, may be made to the
        Partnership by a General Partner or an Affiliate of a General Partner
        if at the inception of the loan any payment of principal or interest
        is to be made more than three years after the date of the loan.

        Distributions from Sales or Refinancings, see "Income and Losses and
        Cash Distributions."

(14)    Crozier Partners was formed as of December 19, 1985, under The Texas
        Uniform Limited Partnership Act with Jack E. Crozier as the general
        partner and Fulton Murray, individually, Fulton Murray in his capacity
        as Trustee of the Beverly Murray Wilson Trust and Fulton Murray and
        RepublicBank Dallas, N.A., in their capacities as Trustees of a trust
        created under the Will of Owen M. Murray, Deceased, as the limited
        partners.

(15)    Real estate commissions are payable to the General Partners or their
        Affiliates only if such General Partner or Affiliate provides a
        substantial amount of the services in the sales effort. All real estate
        commissions payable to the General Partners or their Affiliates for
        services in connection with sales of properties of the Partnership shall
        be cumulative but shall be paid only after the Limited Partners have
        been returned their Original Invested Capital from Cash Distributions
        from Sales or Refinancings, plus their Preferred Return. If an

        the subordination requirement will apply only to the commission, if any,
        earned by the General Partners or their Affiliates. The total of all
        real estate commissions payable to all parties in connection with the
        sale of a Partnership property shall not exceed the lesser of a
        competitive real estate commission which is reasonable, customary and
        competitive in light of the size, type and location of the property or
        6% of the sales price of the property. Real estate commissions payable

        to Crozier Partners or its Affiliates and two-thirds to MRI or its
        Affiliates.

        to Crozier Partners and two-thirds to MRI.

                             CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

        The General Partners are subject to various conflicts of interest
because of other activities and entities in which they have a direct or
indirect financial interest. This Prospectus attempts to highlight those
conflicts of interest but a potential investor should be aware that because of
future activities or circumstances not now foreseen, the listing herein may not
be complete. The General Partners, having the exclusive authority to manage the
operations and affairs of the Partnership and to make all decisions regarding
the business of the Partnership, will seek to resolve any matter involving a
conflict of interest in a manner which, in their best judgment, is fair and
reasonable to the Partnership.
