ITEM 2 - Disposition of Assets

   Maplewood Park Apartments, Manassas, Virginia

   Disposition Date - September 2, 1997

   On September 2, 1997,  Maplewood Drive  Associates,  a joint venture in which
PaineWebber Income Properties Eight Limited  Partnership ("the Partnership") had
an interest,  redeemed the Partnership's joint venture interest for $325,000. As
previously reported,  the mortgage debt secured by the Maplewood Park Apartments
was provided with tax-exempt  revenue bonds issued by a local housing authority.
The bonds are secured by a standby  letter of credit issued to the joint venture
by a bank.  The letter of credit,  which is scheduled to expire in October 1998,
is secured by a first mortgage on the venture's operating property.  The revenue
bonds bear interest at a floating rate that is determined daily by a remarketing
agent based on comparable market rates for similar  tax-exempt  obligations.  In
addition,  the venture is obligated to pay a letter of credit fee, a remarketing
fee and a housing authority fee under the terms of the financing agreement.  The
operating  property  produces  excess net cash flow after the debt  service  and
related fees due under the terms of the bond  financing  arrangement  because of
the low  tax-exempt  interest  rate paid on the bonds.  However,  as part of the
joint  venture  agreement  the  Partnership's   co-venture  partner  receives  a
guaranteed cash  distribution on a monthly basis to the extent that the interest
cost of the  venture's  debt is less  than  8.25%  per  annum.  Conversely,  the
co-venture partner is obligated to contribute funds to the venture to the extent
that the interest cost exceeds  8.25%.  Over the past three years,  the interest
rate   differential   distributions  to  the  co-venturer  under  the  foregoing
arrangement  have averaged  $189,000 per year. These payments to the co-venturer
have  resulted in cash flow  deficits for the joint  venture in each of the past
several years. Since all of the economic benefits of the Maplewood joint venture
currently  accrue to the  co-venture  partner in the form of the  interest  rate
differential  payments  described  above,  management  concluded  that continued
funding  of the  venture's  annual  cash flow  deficits  would  not be  prudent.
Accordingly,  in December 1996, the Partnership informed the co-venturer that it
did not intend to make any further contributions.  Subsequently, the Partnership
and the co-venturer  entered into  negotiations  regarding the redemption of the
Partnership's  interest. An agreement was reached with the co-venture partner in
August 1997 to sell the Partnership's interest for $325,000, and the transaction
closed on September 2, 1997.  Although the $325,000 is  substantially  less than
the amount of the  Partnership's  original  investment  in this joint venture of
$2,563,839,  management  believes it is fully reflective of the current value of
the Partnership's  interest. The current estimated market value of the Maplewood
property,  while higher than the property's  carrying  value,  may be at or only
slightly above the amount of the outstanding principal balance owed on the first
mortgage loan. As a result,  it is unlikely that the letter of credit underlying
the mortgage loan would be renewed upon its expiration in October 1998 without a
significant additional equity investment.  Accordingly, management believes that
the sale of the Partnership's  interest in the venture was in the best interests
of the Limited Partners.

      This  Redemption  is an absolute and  unconditional  redemption  of PWIP's

can, shall or may have, against the other, for, upon or by reason of any matter,
causes or things whatsoever related to the Partnership and the property owned by
the Partnership (the "Released  Interests") from and after the date hereof.  The
Partnership  hereby  agrees to indemnify and save harmless PWIP from and against
all claims,  loss, costs,  damage and reasonable  expenses  (including,  but not
limited  to,  reasonable  attorneys  fees)  and  liabilities  incurred  by  PWIP
resulting  from or arising out of the duties or obligations of PWIP with respect
to the Released Interests from and after the date hereof.  PWIP hereby agrees to
indemnify and save harmless the Partnership  from and against all claims,  loss,
costs, damage and reasonable expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable
attorneys  fees) and liabilities  incurred by the Partnership  resulting from or
arising  out of any  action  of PWIP  with  respect  to the  Partnership  or its

                               SECOND AMENDMENT TO
                           CERTIFICATE OF PARTNERSHIP


      The  undersigned  do certify that they, as a  partnership,  are conducting
business  in the  County of Prince  William,  Virginia,  and do hereby  execute,
acknowledge and file this Second Amendment to a Certificate of Partnership filed
pursuant to Section 50-74 of the Code of Virginia.

                              PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

1.         Maplewood Drive Associates (the  Partnership) was formed as a general
           partnership  under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia  pursuant
           to a  Certificate  of  Partnership  dated as of December 1, 1985 (the
           Partnership  Certificate),  which was filed in the Clerk's  Office of
           the Circuit Court of Prince William County,  Virginia on December 19,
           1985, in Partnership Book 016, at page 467.
      2.   The  Partnership  filed a First  Amendment to  Certificate of Limited
           Partnership  dated  June 14,  1988,  which was  filed in the  Clerk's
           Office of the Circuit  Court of Prince  William  County,  Virginia on
           June __, 1988, in Partnership Book ___, at page ___.
      3.   The purpose of this Second  Amendment to the Partnership  Certificate
           is to reflect the withdrawal of PaineWebber  Income  Properties Eight
           Limited  Partnership as a general partner and the admission of Robert
           W. Schaberg as a general partner.

      NOW,  THEREFORE,  the  parties  hereto  do  hereby  agree,  swear to and
      acknowledge as follows:

      1.   The name of the Partnership is Maplewood Drive Associates.
      2.   The  business  of the  Partnership  is to take any action  which is
           permitted  under the Virginia  Uniform  Partnership  Act and which is
           customary  or  reasonably  related  to  the  acquisition,  ownership,
           development,  improvement, operation, management, financing, leasing,
           exchanging  or otherwise  encumbering  or disposing of the  Maplewood
           Park Apartments  apartment complex and the real property on which the
           apartment complex is located.
      3.   The location of the place of business of the Partnership is 1001 East
           Main Street, Suite 1100, Richmond, Virginia 23219.
