THE OFFER TO PURCHASE FOR CASH UNITS OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS OF T.

LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (THE "OFFER") IS AMENDED AND SUPPLEMENTED BY THE FOLLOWING.
CERTAIN TERMS USED IN THIS SUPPLEMENT NO. 1, GENERALLY IDENTIFIED BY INITIAL
CAPITAL LETTERS, WHICH ARE NOT DEFINED HEREIN, SHALL HAVE THE RESPECTIVE
MEANINGS PROVIDED IN THE OFFER.
The following are certain risk factors you should consider in connection
with the Offer:
- The Offer is equal to 75% of the net asset value of the Units determined
by the General Partner as described in the Offer.
- The Purchaser's intent is to acquire the Units at a discount to the value
that the Purchaser might ultimately realize from owning the Units.
- Unitholders who tender their Units will be giving up the opportunity to
participate in any future potential benefits of ownership of Units,
including the right to receive future distributions of cash or property
with respect thereto.
- No independent person has been retained to evaluate or render any opinion
as to the fairness of the Offer and other measures of value may be
relevant to Unitholders. We urge you to consult your own financial
advisors in connection with the Offer.
- The tax consequences of the Offer to a particular Unitholder may be
different from those of other Unitholders and we urge you to consult your
own tax advisors in connection with the Offer.
You should also consider the following points in connection with the Offer:
- The Offer provides Unitholders with an opportunity to immediately
liquidate their Units for $107 per Unit, net to the Seller in cash.
- The Offer is approximately 179% higher than the $38.40 per Unit offer
recently made by Fir Investors, LLC.
- There is no guarantee of future results of the Partnership or that the net
asset value of the Units determined by the General Partner will prove to
be correct and investment in the Partnership remains speculative.
- The Offer will permit Unitholders to liquidate their investments and to
pursue less speculative and more liquid alternative investments which may
yield higher annual cashflows.
- By accepting the Offer Unitholders may avoid expenses, delays and
complications of tax filings in connection with ownership of Units in the
Partnership.

Dear Unitholder:
On December 20, 1996, T. Rowe Price Real Estate Group, Inc., the general
partner of the Partnerships (the "General Partner") filed Schedule 14D-9
responses ("Responses") to our tender offers (the "Offers") for Units in the
Partnerships. We are amending each of the Offers to extend the Expiration Date
(as defined in the Offers) to January 31, 1997, and to clarify a statement in
the Responses that reads as follows: "THE FIVE T. ROWE PRICE REAL ESTATE FUNDS
SOLD SEVEN COMPLETE PROPERTIES DURING THE PAST THREE YEARS, NONE BELOW THE
ESTIMATED RANGE USED IN THE PRIOR YEAR'S UNIT VALUATION, AND FOUR ABOVE THE
RANGE."
-AS TO EACH OF THE PROPERTIES SOLD BY THE PARTNERSHIPS IN THE LAST
TWO YEARS, THE GENERAL PARTNER'S "PRIOR YEAR'S UNIT VALUATION" INCLUDED
WRITEDOWNS OF SUCH PROPERTIES' VALUES.
-THE WRITEDOWNS "ARE BASED UPON THE GENERAL PARTNER'S CONCERN
THAT THE PARTNERSHIP MAY BE UNABLE TO RECOVER THE NET CARRYING VALUE OF
CERTAIN PROPERTIES THROUGH FUTURE OPERATIONS AND SALE." (SEE THE TRP III
FORM 10-K FOR YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995).
-AS DISCLOSED ON EXHIBIT A, THE PARTNERSHIPS HAVE WRITTEN DOWN
PARTNERSHIP PROPERTY VALUES BY NEARLY $34 MILLION, INCLUDING OVER $4.5
MILLION IN 1996.
-THERE IS NO GUARANTEE OR ASSURANCE THAT THE PARTNERSHIPS'
PROPERTIES WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO FURTHER WRITEDOWNS.
-OUR OFFERS ARE EQUAL TO 75% OF NET ASSET VALUE. THE RECENT OFFERS
BY FIR INVESTORS, LLC WERE EQUAL TO 40%, 41% AND 27% OF NET ASSET VALUE
FOR TRP I, TRP II AND TRP III, RESPECTIVELY.
-OUR OFFERS REPRESENT THE PER UNIT DISCOUNT AS SET FORTH IN
EXHIBIT A. GIVEN HOW MANY UNITS YOU OWN, PLEASE WEIGH THE CERTAINTY OF
OUR OFFER AGAINST THE POSSIBILITY OF ADDITIONAL PROPERTY VALUE
WRITEDOWNS AND OTHER OWNERSHIP RISKS COUPLED WITH THE TAX RETURN
PREPARATION AND OTHER COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH CONTINUED UNIT OWNERSHIP.
The Offers and the related withdrawal rights and proration periods, as
amended, each shall expire on Friday, January 31, 1997. Please find attached
Supplement No. 1 to your Offer. Should you need assistance in completing the
Letter of Transmittal or should you have any questions of any nature whatsoever,
please call The Herman Group, Inc. toll-free at 1-800-992-6213.
