                   NOTES TO THE COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.       Basis of Accounting

         The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
         for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q
         and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of the General
         Partner, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation of the results
         of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, have
         been made to the financial information furnished herein. For further
         information refer to the combined financial statements and footnotes
         thereto included in the Partnerships' annual report on Form 10-K for
         the year ended December 31, 1998.

         On May 10, 1996, the Operating Partnership and affiliated
         sub-partnerships filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the federal
         bankruptcy laws in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern
         District of Illinois. This filing excludes Partnership I and
         Partnership II. Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the deeds to
         the remaining hotels were transferred to the senior lender on September
         26, 1996 in consideration for the cancellation of the senior
         indebtedness (the "Transfer"). As a result of the Transfer, the
         Partnerships no longer have a source of funds.

         In the short term, the Partnerships will continue to maintain a cash
         reserve for the payment of the remaining Partnerships' obligations and
         contingent liabilities. In the long term, the Partnerships will wind-up
         their affairs and will distribute any remaining Partnerships' funds to
         their Limited Partners after paying all Partnerships' expenses and the
         Partnerships will be dissolved at that time. It is anticipated that the
         Partnerships will be dissolved sometime in 1999 or 2000. Activities
         related to dissolution of the Partnerships represent the only business
         segment.

2.       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         Under the terms of the various Partnership Agreements, the Managing
         General Partner and its affiliates are to provide management, financing
         and other services to Portfolio I, Portfolio II and the Operating
         Partnership in return for certain fees as follows:

              (1) The Partnership Agreements specify the dollar amount of this
                  fee.

              (2) These fees represent reimbursement for partnership accounting,
                  printing, legal department, data processing and travel and
                  communication expenses incurred by affiliates for the Managing
                  General Partner for operation of the Partnerships.

3.       LITIGATION

         Certain affiliates of the Partnerships, including the Managing General
         Partner and certain officers and directors of such affiliates are
         parties to certain pending legal proceedings as described in Form 10-K
         for the year ended December 31, 1998 filed as of March 31, 1999 and
         certain other proceedings. The adverse outcome of any one or more legal
         proceedings against any one of the affiliates which provides financial
         support or services to the Partnerships could have a materially adverse
         effect on the present and future operations of the Partnerships. There
         can be no assurance as to the outcome of any of the legal proceedings.

         The Partnerships are the subject of certain filed claims in bankruptcy
         cases totaling approximately $300,000. The Partnerships are contesting
         the validity of the claims and are hopeful that the claims will be
         disallowed in their entirety. Subject to certain provisions in the Plan
         of Reorganization, the Partnerships obtained an indemnity to the extent
         of the actual amounts of certain claims. However, the indemnity does
         not include the costs associated with defending the litigation. The
         outcome of this litigation is currently not determinable.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" contain certain forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 which
reflect management's current views with respect to future events and financial
performance. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainty.

On October 28, 1985, VMS National Hotel Portfolio I and II (the Partnerships)
commenced a private offering of $97,350,000 ("Offering") in Limited Partnership
interests pursuant to their respective Private Placement Memorandums. A total of
649 units were offered and sold at $150,000 per unit. Subscribers for the Units
had the option to contribute partially in cash upon subscription with the
remaining purchase price payable in annual installments over a five year period
or on a basis other than the foregoing option, which was acceptable to the
Managing General Partner in its sole discretion. The Limited Partner selecting
to pay in the remaining purchase price of their units over a five year period
executed and delivered to the Partnerships full recourse notes payable. VMS
National Hotel Partners (the Operating Partnership), with proceeds of the
Offering and Debt borrowing, purchased 24 hotels from Holiday Inns, Inc.

On May 10, 1996, the Operating Partnership and affiliated sub-partnerships filed
for relief under Chapter 11 of the federal bankruptcy laws in the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois. This filing excluded
Partnership I and Partnership II. Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, the
deeds to the remaining hotels were transferred to the senior lender on September
26, 1996 in consideration for the cancellation of the related indebtedness (the
"Transfer").

In the short term, the Partnerships will continue to maintain a cash reserve for
the payment of the remaining Partnerships' obligations and contingent
liabilities. In the long term, the Partnerships will wind-up their affairs and
will distribute any remaining Partnerships' funds to their Limited Partners
after paying all Partnerships' expenses and the Partnerships will be dissolved
at that time. It is anticipated that the Partnerships will be dissolved sometime
in 1999 or 2000.

In the year 2000, many existing computer programs that use only two digits
(rather than four) to identify a year in the date field could fail or create
erroneous results if not corrected. This computer program flaw is expected to
affect virtually all companies and organizations. The Partnerships believe that
with modifications to existing software and conversions to new software, the
Year 2000 issue will not pose significant operational problems for its computer
systems. There is no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which the
Partnerships' systems rely will be timely converted and would not have an
adverse effect on the Partnerships' systems.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Partnership revenues for the three months ended and six months ended June 30,
1999 decreased by $74,352 and $77,754, or 98.4% and 96.0%, respectively, to
$1,179 and $3,222, respectively, from the same period in 1998. The decrease is
primarily due to the collection of a $71,000 legal

settlement in 1998, and a decrease in interest income in the amount of $6,754
attributed to the reduction in the Partnership's cash and cash equivalents.

Partnership expenses for the three months ended and six months ended June 30,
1999 decreased by $108,394 and $117,224, or 67.2% and 47.6%, respectively, to
$53,003 and $128,802, respectively, from the same period in 1998 due to a
decrease in professional, consulting and other fees due to the reduction in the
Partnerships' activities as a result of the Transfer.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As a result of the Transfer in 1996, the Partnerships no longer have a source of
funds. A cash reserve is being maintained for payment of the Partnerships'
obligations and contingencies.

As shown on the Combined Statements of Cash Flows, cash used in operating
activities and cash and cash equivalents decreased $170,026 and $199,697 for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, primarily due to net loss
from Partnership operations.

In the short term, the Partnerships will continue to maintain a cash reserve for
the payment of the remaining Partnerships' obligations and contingent
liabilities. In the long term, the Partnerships will wind-up their affairs and
will distribute any remaining Partnership' funds to their Limited Partners after
paying all Partnerships' expenses and the Partnerships will be dissolved at that
time. It is anticipated that the Partnerships will be dissolved sometime in 1999
or 2000.
