SOLICITATION OF CONSENTS TO DISSOLVE
AND TERMINATE THE PARTNERSHIP
To the Limited Partners of
NYLIFE Realty Income Partners I, L.P.:
NYLIFE Realty Income Partners I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the
"Partnership"), is soliciting consents of the limited partners (the "Limited
Partners") of the Partnership to dissolve and terminate the Partnership (the
"Proposal"). If the Proposal is approved by the requisite consent of the Limited
Partners, the Partnership will be dissolved and terminated in accordance with
the terms of the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the
Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement"). Under the Partnership Agreement,
adoption of the Proposal requires the consent of holders of more than 50% of the
units of limited partner interest ("Units") of the Partnership.
The approximate date on which this Definitive Solicitation Statement is
first being mailed to Limited Partners is May , 1996. The Definitive
Solicitation Statement modifies and supersedes the Preliminary Solicitation
Statement for the Partnership dated March 29, 1996. Only Limited Partners of
record at the close of business on May 14, 1996 (the "Record Date") will be
entitled to submit consent cards with respect to the Proposal. The consent
solicitation for the Partnership will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on
June 25, 1996, unless extended by the General Partners (as extended from time to
time, the "Expiration Date"). The Proposal will be deemed adopted and effective
on the Expiration Date if at such time the Partnership has received executed
consent cards consenting to the Proposal from the holders of record of more than
50% of the Units outstanding on the Record Date.
Limited Partners may revoke any previously submitted consent, disapproval or
abstention with respect to the Proposal by delivering written notice of such
revocation to the Partnership prior to the Expiration Date. Any duly executed
consent card on which a consent, disapproval or abstention is not indicated
(except broker non-votes expressly indicating a lack of discretionary authority
to consent) will be deemed a consent to the Proposal. An abstention from voting
on the Proposal will effectively count as a negative vote with respect to the
Proposal.
This Definitive Solicitation Statement is dated May , 1996.

SUMMARY
THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY IS INTENDED TO ASSIST LIMITED PARTNERS IN REVIEWING
THE MORE DETAILED INFORMATION CONTAINED ELSEWHERE IN THIS PRELIMINARY
SOLICITATION STATEMENT AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY SUCH DETAILED
INFORMATION.
THE PARTNERSHIP
The Partnership was formed on November 14, 1986 solely for the purpose of
investing in real estate, primarily through joint ventures (the "Joint
Ventures") that would invest in, hold, manage and sell existing commercial
properties. The Partnership presently has investments in three Joint Ventures
with New York Life Insurance Company (the "Co-Venturer"), an affiliate of the
Partnership. Through these Joint Ventures, the Partnership holds interests in
the following properties (the "Properties"): an office building in Blue Ash,
Ohio, a suburb of Cincinnati ("Cornell"); three commercial buildings in Eden
Prairie, Minnesota, a suburb of Minneapolis ("Eden Woods"); and a shopping
center in Columbus, Ohio ("NewMarket"). In December 1994, a fourth Joint Venture
in which the Partnership had been a co-venturer sold its property, an office
building in Brentwood, Tennessee, a suburb of Nashville ("Parklane"). On
February 15, 1995, the Partnership distributed its share of the Parklane cash
reserve and net sales proceeds aggregating $4,129,702 to the partners of the
Partnership.
The Joint Ventures for Cornell and Parklane were funded 60% by the
Partnership and 40% by the Co-Venturer. The Joint Venture for Eden Woods was
funded 47.06% by the Partnership and 52.94% by the Co-Venturer. The Joint
Venture for NewMarket was originally funded 47.09% by the Partnership and 52.91%
by the Co-Venturer; however, additional capital contributions to such Joint
Venture have resulted in ownership interests of 43.82% and 56.18% for the
Partnership and the Co-Venturer, respectively, at December 31, 1995. All Joint
Venture income, losses and distributions are generally apportioned pro-rata
between the Partnership and the Co-Venturer in proportion to their respective
contributions to the Joint Ventures.
Units of limited partnership interests in the Partnership were offered for
sale to the public (the "Public Offering") until June 30, 1989. As of such date
the Partnership had raised gross proceeds of $28,339,255 from the sale of
2,833,925.5 Units to 3,383 Limited Partners.
The general partners (the "General Partners") of the Partnership are NYLIFE
Realty Inc. ("NYLIFE Realty"), a Delaware corporation and an indirect,
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Co-Venturer, and CNP Realty Investments Inc.
("CNP"), a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NYLIFE Realty
(jointly, the "General Partners"). NYLIFE Realty is primarily responsible for
both property-related and Partnership administrative matters. An agreement
provides that a management committee (the "Investment Committee") composed of
six persons, three from each General Partner, must approve all major decisions
with respect to the Partnership's business.
The Partnership is the managing partner of each Joint Venture, responsible
for management of the day-to-day operations and implementing the joint decisions
of the Joint Venture's partners. Each Joint Venture agreement provides that a
management committee (the "Joint Venture Management Committee") composed of two
representatives from the Partnership and two representatives from the
Co-Venturer, must approve all major decisions with respect to each Joint
Venture's business. Such representatives are all employees of New York Life
Insurance Company ("New York Life").
THE PROPOSAL AND ITS POTENTIAL EFFECTS
THE PROPOSAL. The Partnership is soliciting the consent of its Limited
Partners to the Proposal. The consents are being sought in connection with a
proposed settlement (the "Settlement") of a class action lawsuit (the "Lawsuit")
pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida
(the "Court"). The Proposal is not conditioned upon the Settlement being
approved or completed. If the Limited Partners approve the Proposal, the
Partnership will be dissolved and terminated in accordance with the terms of the
Partnership Agreement. The assets of the Partnership
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
will be sold for cash and the cash remaining after satisfaction of the
Partnership's liabilities will be distributed to the General Partners and the
Limited Partners in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. For
a discussion of the allocation and distribution of proceeds to partners upon
liquidation of the Partnership, see "The Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal
- -- The Proposal -- Liquidating Distributions."
EFFECT OF APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSAL AND THE SETTLEMENT. Under the
Settlement, "Cash Payments" will be made by NYLIFE Realty directly to Settling
Limited Partners (as defined below) if the Settlement is approved by the Court
and becomes final. If no appeal is filed, the Settlement will become final 30
days after the Court enters a Final Order and Judgment approving the Settlement;
otherwise, the Settlement becomes final when all appellate proceedings have been
concluded and those proceedings result in the courts upholding the Final Order
and Judgment (the "Final Settlement Date"). The Cash Payments will be made
within 30 days after the Final Settlement Date, or as soon thereafter as
practicable. The Court currently has scheduled the hearing regarding approval of
the Settlement for July 3, 1996.
If the Proposal is approved by the Limited Partners, a Limited Partner who
remains in the class (a "Settling Limited Partner") will receive under the
Settlement a Cash Payment that, when added to prior distributions received, will
at least equal the amount invested by that Settling Limited Partner in the
Partnership. The first part of this Cash Payment will be a "Liquidation
Advance." The Liquidation Advance will be a Settling Limited Partner's share in
'Adjusted NAV" (which, in general, is the estimated market value as of December
31, 1995, of the Partnership's interests in the Joint Ventures) and in
"Distributable Working Capital." "Adjusted NAV" and "Distributable Working
Capital" are more fully described under "The Proposal and Reasons for Proposal
- -- Effect of Approval of the Proposal and the Settlement."
The Liquidation Advance will be repaid to NYLIFE Realty solely out of any
"Liquidating Distribution" made by the Partnership to a Settling Limited
Partner. The Liquidating Distribution will consist of the Partnership's cash and
other assets that remain after the Partnership's assets are sold and its
liabilities are discharged. To ensure that repayment, each Settling Limited
Partner will grant NYLIFE Realty a security interest in such Settling Limited
Partner's Units and Liquidating Distribution up to the amount of the Liquidation
Advance. If the Liquidating Distribution is less than the Liquidation Advance, a
Settling Limited Partner has no obligation to repay the difference to NYLIFE
Realty. If a Settling Limited Partner's Liquidating Distribution exceeds the
Liquidation Advance, then that Settling Limited Partner will receive the excess
amount in up to two installments as the Partnership is liquidated and
liabilities are satisfied.
The second part of the Cash Payment to a Settling Limited Partner will be
either a "Refund" or an "Enhancement." A Refund will be paid if the Liquidation
Advance, plus all prior distributions, is less than the amount invested by a
Settling Limited Partner in the Partnership. The Refund portion of the Cash
Payment will be equal to that difference. An Enhancement will be paid if the
Liquidation Advance, plus all prior distributions, equals or exceeds the amount
invested by a Settling Limited Partner in the Partnership. The Enhancement will
be equal to $.40 multiplied by the number of Units of the Partnership owned by a
Settling Limited Partner. In no event will a Settling Limited Partner receive
less than $200 as a Refund or an Enhancement. For payments that may be made to a
Settling Limited Partner that is a defined benefit plan, see "The Proposal and
Reasons for the Proposal -- Effect of Approval of the Proposal and the
Settlement."
The Refund or the Enhancement, together with the Liquidation Advance, form
the consideration provided to a Settling Limited Partner in exchange for the
release of claims that is provided under the Settlement. The Enhancement is
being offered to the Settling Limited Partners who have received a full return
on their investments as part of the consideration that such Settling Limited
Partners will receive for the Release (as defined below) they will grant the
Defendants (as defined below). See "Litigation and Proposed Settlement --
Release." Due to their different individual circumstances,
2
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Settling Limited Partners who receive an Enhancement will be receiving, together
with the Liquidation Advance and prior distributions, an aggregate return on
their investment that is more than the return on investment obtained by those
Settling Limited Partners who receive a Refund. All Settling Limited Partners,
however, will receive at least a return of their investment, taking account of
prior distributions.
Cash Payments under the Settlement will not be made to a Limited Partner who
elects not to participate in the Settlement. A "Non-Settling Limited Partner"
will receive only a Liquidating Distribution after sale of the Partnership
properties, which will not include any Refund or Enhancement amount, and thus
will be less than the amount the Non-Settling Limited Partner would have
received if that Limited Partner had elected to participate in the Settlement.
There are numerous conditions to the Settlement, including approval by the
Court. There can be no assurance that if the Proposal is approved by the Limited
Partners and the Partnership is liquidated, such conditions will be satisfied.
If the Proposal is approved but the Settlement does not become final, Limited
Partners will receive only Liquidating Distributions. See "Litigation and
Proposed Settlement -- Potential Termination of the Settlement Agreement" and
"Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- Potential Termination of the Settlement
Agreement with respect to the Partnership."
REQUIRED CONSENT. Under the Partnership Agreement, adoption of the Proposal
requires the approval of holders of more than 50% of the Units. NYLIFE Realty
owns 2,016.4 Units and will consent to the Proposal with respect to such Units.
For information on the number of Units outstanding and the total number of Units
with respect to which Unitholders must give their consent to the Proposal to
approve the Proposal, see "The Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Consent
of Limited Partners to the Proposal." Only Limited Partners of record at the
close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to submit consent cards
with respect to the Proposal. The consent solicitation will expire at 5:00 p.m.,
New York time, on June 25, 1996, unless extended by the General Partners. See
"Voting Procedures."
EFFECT ON LIMITED PARTNERS AND PARTNERSHIP IF THE PROPOSAL IS NOT APPROVED
If the Proposal is not approved, the Partnership will continue to own and
operate the Properties and, depending on the Properties' performances, the
Partnership may continue to earn income and make distributions to the partners.
Consistent with the Partnership's investment objectives, the General Partners
may solicit offers for the sale of the Properties as opportunities arise. In any
such sale, the Partnership would benefit from any increase in the value of the
Properties and suffer further loss from any decrease in the value of the
Properties. Failure by the Limited Partners to approve the Proposal will not
affect the rights of the Limited Partners under the Partnership Agreement.
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement (as defined below), if the
consents necessary to dissolve and terminate the Partnership have not been
obtained by the Final Settlement Date, the New York Life Defendants (as defined
below) will have the option of either (a) terminating the proposed Settlement as
it applies to the Partnership and the Settling Limited Partners or (b) paying to
each Settling Limited Partner the Refund or the Enhancement, as the case may be,
but not the Liquidation Advance, in exchange for a Release (as defined below)
from such Settling Limited Partner. In the latter event, the Refund or
Enhancement, as the case may be, will be calculated as if the Liquidation
Advance had been paid. Therefore, if the Limited Partners do not consent to the
dissolution of the Partnership by approving the Proposal, the Settling Limited
Partners will not be assured the full return of their investment in the
Partnership. There can be no assurance that the future performance of the
Partnership or the outcome of the Lawsuit or any possible future settlement
thereof would result in the Limited Partners receiving as much or more than they
would receive if the Proposal is approved and the Settlement is approved and
becomes final. See "The Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Effect on
Limited Partners and Partnership if the Proposal Is Not Approved."

SUMMARY OF POTENTIAL PAYMENTS TO LIMITED PARTNERS
Under "The Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Summary of Potential
Payments to Limited Partners" is a chart setting forth the type of payments the
Limited Partners may receive, assuming the Settlement is approved and becomes
final, depending upon (a) the approval or rejection of the Proposal by the
Limited Partners and (b) the election of the individual Limited Partner to
participate in the Settlement.
NO DISSENTERS' RIGHTS
The Limited Partners will not be entitled to any dissenters' rights or
appraisal rights under either the Partnership Agreement or Delaware law with
respect to the transactions described in this Solicitation Statement. See "The
Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- No Dissenters' Rights."
REASONS FOR THE PROPOSAL
The General Partners believe that it is in the best interests of the Limited
Partners to approve the Proposal for the following reasons:
1. LIQUIDITY. There is no established trading market for the Units.
Dissolution of the Partnership will provide Limited Partners the opportunity to
receive cash in liquidation of their investment in the Partnership and make
alternative investments. There can be no assurance that any alternative
investments would generate returns that are equivalent to or greater than those
currently being earned by an investment in the Partnership. Pursuant to a
preliminary injunction issued by the Court, Limited Partners who have not
excluded themselves from the Class (as defined below) have been enjoined from
transferring their Units except in certain specified circumstances. If the
Proposal is approved by the Limited Partners and the Settlement is approved by
the Court and becomes final, Settling Limited Partners will not be permitted to
transfer their Units. Settling Limited Partners will, however, receive the Cash
Payment. See "Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- The Hearing Order and the
Settlement Hearing."
2. FAVORABLE MARKET CONDITIONS. The General Partners believe that this may
be an opportune time to sell the Properties. The Properties have achieved
improved operations during the past two years. Sale of the Properties and
liquidation of the Partnership at this time offers Limited Partners an
opportunity to liquidate their investment in the Partnership during a period of
favorable conditions in the real estate market.
3. COST OF MAINTAINING THE PARTNERSHIP. Continuing to operate the
Partnership as a public partnership requires ongoing expenditures for overhead
costs associated with investor relations and investor servicing, as well as
legal and accounting costs associated with required compliance reporting. The
Partnership is subject to federal and state securities laws and the terms of the
Partnership Agreement under which periodic reports and annual financial
statements are required to be generated by the Partnership. The cost of
completing these reports and financial statements is paid out of the revenues of
the Partnership. The Partnership sold its interests in Parklane in late 1994,
and if the Proposals are not approved, the Partnership may consider selling
additional Properties in the future. Each sale results in a reduction in the
number of Properties generating revenues to cover these overhead costs. See "The
Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Reasons for the Proposal."
MATERIAL ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THE PROPOSAL TO THE PARTNERS
Potential advantages to the Limited Partners if the Proposal is approved:
- Limited Partners will be able to receive cash in liquidation of their
investments.
- Liquidation of the Partnership at this time offers Limited Partners an
opportunity to liquidate their investment during a period of favorable
conditions in the real estate market.
- If the Settlement is also approved, a Settling Limited Partner will
receive an amount that, together with prior distributions from the
Partnership, will be at least equal to the Settling Limited Partner's
total investment in the Partnership.
4
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Potential disadvantages to the Limited Partners if the Proposal is approved:
- The Limited Partners will no longer have any rights in the Partnership's
properties and will not benefit from any potential increases in the value
of the properties or receive any semiannual distributions from the
Partnership.
- If a Limited Partner participates in the Settlement, he, she or it will
release and discharge the Defendants (as defined below), including the
General Partners, and various other persons from any and all past, present
and future causes of action in connection with the Proprietary
Partnerships (as defined below).
If the Proposal is approved, the General Partners will receive a
proportionate amount of the proceeds of liquidation of the Partnership based on
their general partner interests and the Units they hold in the Partnership.
Estimates of these amounts for the General Partners, based on the pro forma
balance sheet on a liquidation basis, are set forth in Exhibit C. Furthermore,
if the Proposal is approved, the General Partners will receive the benefit of
the Release (as defined below). In addition, New York Life, an affiliate of the
General Partners and the Co-Venturer of each of the Joint Ventures, will
participate in the net proceeds from the sale of the Properties in proportion to
its interest in the Joint Ventures. See "The Proposal and Reasons for the
Proposal -- Material Advantages and Disadvantages of the Proposal to the
Partners."
DETERMINATION OF LIQUIDATION ADVANCE
The Cash Payment to a Settling Limited Partner will consist of both a
Liquidation Advance and either a Refund or Enhancement, as the case may be. The
Liquidation Advance will be equal to a Settling Limited Partner's proportionate
interest in the sum of (i) Adjusted NAV, which is the estimated market value as
of December 31, 1995 of the Partnership's interests in the Joint Ventures as
determined by the General Partners, as adjusted for any sales of Properties from
December 31, 1995 through the Final Settlement Date, and (ii) Distributable
Working Capital.
The General Partners have determined the estimated market value as of
December 31, 1995 of the Partnership's interests in the Joint Ventures to be
$12,306,955. In determining such estimated market value, the General Partners
relied in part on appraisals of the Properties prepared by the independent
appraisal firms of Property Counselors, Inc. (with respect to Eden Woods), U.S.
Realty Consultants, Inc. (with respect to NewMarket) and a third independent
appraisal firm (with respect to Cornell). Pursuant to their valuations dated
December 15, 1995 (with respect to Cornell and NewMarket) and December 31, 1995
(with respect to Eden Woods), such appraisal firms (the "Appraisers") determined
the market value of the Properties to be as follows:

LITIGATION AND PROPOSED SETTLEMENT
THE LAWSUIT. On March 18, 1996, Evelyn Shea and Ann Grimshawe
("Plaintiffs") filed the Lawsuit in the Court against New York Life, several of
its subsidiaries, including NYLIFE Realty (together with New York Life, the "New
York Life Defendants") and two companies unaffiliated with New York Life
(collectively with the New York Life Defendants, the "Defendants"). The Lawsuit
was preceded by two similar but separate lawsuits filed by the Plaintiffs in
Texas State court on January 11, 1996. The Plaintiffs purport to represent a
class (the "Class") of all persons (the "Class
5
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Members") who purchased or otherwise assumed rights and title to interests
("Proprietary Investment Units") in certain limited partnerships (the
"Proprietary Partnerships"), including the Partnership, created, sponsored,
marketed, sold, operated or managed by the Defendants from January 1, 1985
through March 18, 1996. In the Lawsuit, Plaintiffs allege generally that the
Defendants engaged in fraudulent activities in connection with the marketing and
sale of interests in the Proprietary Partnerships and the subsequent operation
of such Partnerships, breached implied covenants and fiduciary duties owed to
investors in the Proprietary Partnerships and violated various federal
securities and state laws and rules. See "Litigation and Proposed Settlement --
The Lawsuit and the Class Members."
DENIAL OF CLAIMS. The Defendants have denied and continue to deny any
wrongdoing or liability alleged in the Lawsuit. The Defendants have,
nevertheless, agreed to the proposed Settlement of the Lawsuit for the reasons
described in more detail elsewhere in this Solicitation Statement. Prior to the
filing of the Lawsuit, the New York Life Defendants determined that it would be
in the best interest of the investors in certain Proprietary Partnerships,
including the Partnership, to terminate such partnerships and, in connection
therewith, to provide certain payments to the limited partners that would be in
addition to any amounts they would receive upon liquidation of the partnerships,
although the New York Life Defendants had no obligation to do so. See
"Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- Denial of Claims."
TERMS OF PROPOSED SETTLEMENT PAYMENTS. On March 19, 1996, the Plaintiffs
and Defendants filed with the Court a Stipulation of Settlement (the "Settlement
Agreement") that sets forth the terms of the proposed Settlement of the Lawsuit.
With respect to the Partnership, the proposed Settlement generally provides that
each Settling Limited Partner who is a Class Member and who has not excluded
himself, herself or itself from the Class by following the procedures outlined
by the Court will receive the Liquidation Advance and either the Refund or the
Enhancement, as the case may be, as described more fully elsewhere in this
Solicitation Statement. See "Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- Payment under
the Settlement Agreement to Limited Partners" and "The Proposal and Reasons for
the Proposal -- Cash Payments to Settling Limited Partners if Proposal and
Settlement are Approved."
RELEASE. As part of the proposed Settlement, Plaintiffs and all Class
Members who did not exclude themselves from the Class, including the Settling
Limited Partners, will each grant a full release and discharge (the "Release")
of the Defendants, their affiliates, agents and various other persons and
entities from any and all causes of action in connection with the Proprietary
Partnerships, including the Partnership. See "Litigation and Proposed Settlement
- -- Release."
CONDITIONS TO SETTLEMENT. The Settlement Agreement is not yet final and may
be terminated in certain circumstances. The Settlement will become final only
after the Court enters a Final Order and Judgment approving the Settlement and
the period for appeal thereof has expired, or if the Final Order or Judgment is
appealed, on the date on which all appeals have been finally disposed of in a
manner that affirms the Final Order and Judgment. The Court currently has
scheduled the hearing regarding approval of the Settlement for July 3, 1996. See
"Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- Potential Termination of the Settlement
Agreement."
Plaintiffs have the right to terminate the Settlement Agreement under the
circumstances specified therein. In addition, Defendants may unilaterally
terminate the Settlement Agreement (a) with respect to all of the Proprietary
Partnerships taken together if those persons who elect to exclude themselves
from the Class (i) together number more than 3% of all Class Members, or (ii)
have ownership interests in the Proprietary Partnerships that together account
for more than 3% of all capital invested by limited partners in the Proprietary
Partnerships; (b) with respect to a particular Proprietary Partnership if those
persons who elect to exclude themselves from the Class with respect to such
Proprietary Partnership (i) together number more than 3% of all those who are
members of the Class with respect to such partnership, or (ii) have ownership
interests in such partnership that together account for more than 3% of all
capital invested by limited partners in such partnership; (c) if
6
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
the votes, consents or authorizations necessary to dissolve and liquidate four
or more of the Proprietary Partnerships are not obtained; (d) if any state or
federal regulator, self-regulatory organization or other administrative body or
official (i) objects either to any aspect or term of the Settlement Agreement or
to the transactions to be entered into to facilitate the proposed Settlement and
takes or threatens to take any regulatory or legal action that would impair the
ability of the parties to conclude the Settlement or (ii) requires as a
condition of not taking action any modification to the Settlement Agreement,
including, without limitation, any constriction or extension of the scope of the
contemplated relief, that the Defendants in their sole discretion believe would
impair their ability to consummate the Settlement or to provide the contemplated
relief; or (e) if a final order dismissing the Texas State court actions with
prejudice, which is no longer appealable, has not been entered by the Final
Settlement Date. See "Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- Potential
Termination of the Settlement Agreement." Furthermore, the Settlement Agreement
provides that if the Limited Partners of the Partnership do not approve the
Proposal, the New York Life Defendants may either (i) unilaterally terminate the
Settlement Agreement as it applies to the Partnership and the Settling Limited
Partners or (ii) pay each Settling Limited Partner the Refund or the
Enhancement, as the case may be, but not the Liquidation Advance, in exchange
for a Release from such Settling Limited Partner as described below. In the
latter event, the Refund or the Enhancement, as the case may be, will be
calculated as if the Liquidation Advance had been paid. See "Litigation and
Proposed Settlement -- Potential Termination of the Settlement Agreement with
Respect to The Partnership."
CLASS NOTICE AND FINAL ORDER. The Court has certified the Class for
settlement purposes only and directed the New York Life Defendants, or their
designee(s), to cause a notice (the "Class Notice") to be mailed to all
potential members of the Class at their last known address no later than 90 days
before the Settlement Hearing. The Class Notice has been sent to Limited
Partners included in the Class and should be referred to for further information
regarding the Lawsuit, the Settlement and the Settlement Hearing. See
"Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- The Hearing Order and the Settlement
Hearing."
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
The following summary of what the General Partners believe, based on the
advice of tax counsel, are likely to be the principal federal income tax
consequences of the transaction for most Limited Partners, is for general
information purposes only. Each Limited Partner is strongly urged to consult
his, her or its own tax adviser with respect to the specific consequences of the
receipt of a Cash Payment pursuant to the Settlement and of the winding up and
liquidation of the Partnership in such Limited Partner's particular
circumstances. See "Federal Income Tax Consequences."
In general, with respect to the receipt of a Cash Payment pursuant to the
Settlement, the Refund and the Enhancement should be treated for federal income
tax purposes as a return of capital and should be applied against and reduce a
Settling Limited Partner's adjusted tax basis in his, her or its Units. To the
extent, if any, that the Refund or Enhancement received by a Settling Limited
Partner exceeds his, her or its adjusted tax basis in his, her or its Units,
such excess will constitute taxable income to such Settling Limited Partner,
which may be ordinary income. A Settling Limited Partner generally should not
recognize income on his, her or its receipt of the Liquidation Advance. If the
Liquidation Advance received by a Settling Limited Partner ultimately exceeds
the Liquidating Distribution allocable to such Settling Limited Partner, such
excess generally should be treated for federal income tax purposes in the same
manner as a Refund received at the time of the liquidation of the Partnership. A
Tax-Exempt Limited Partner (as defined herein) who participates in the
Settlement generally should not recognize unrelated business taxable income as a
result of its receipt of the Refund or Enhancement. However, if such a
Tax-Exempt Limited Partner has either (i) incurred "acquisition indebtedness"
within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"), with respect to its Units or (ii) utilized deductions (if any)
generated by the Partnership against unrelated business taxable income, then
such Limited Partner may recognize unrelated
7
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
business taxable income to the extent (if any) the Refund or Enhancement exceeds
its adjusted tax basis in its Units. Property acquired with the proceeds of the
Liquidation Advance should not be treated as "debt-financed property" within the
meaning of the Code.
In general, upon the disposition of the Partnership's real properties, each
Limited Partner will recognize its allocable share of the gain or loss realized
by the Partnership from such disposition. It is anticipated that any gain or
loss from the disposition of such property should generally be treated as
"section 1231" gain or loss. Upon the disposition of the tangible personal
property of the Partnership, a Limited Partner will also recognize his, her or
its share of the gain or loss realized by the Partnership. Any gain from the
sale of such property will be treated as ordinary income (and in the case of a
Tax-Exempt Limited Partner, unrelated business taxable income if such Limited
Partner utilized deductions (if any) generated by the Partnership against
unrelated business taxable income) to the extent of the amount of depreciation
deductions previously allowed with respect to such property, and any excess gain
and the entire amount of any loss from the disposition of such property should
generally be treated as "section 1231" gain or loss. It is anticipated that the
amount characterized as ordinary income will generally be allocated to Limited
Partners other than Tax-Exempt Limited Partners.
A Limited Partner could also recognize additional gain or loss upon the
liquidation of the Partnership and the distribution of the sales proceeds, to
the extent that the sum of the cash received (and in the case of a Settling
Limited Partner, any amounts treated as received and used to repay the
Liquidation Advance) and the reduction in his, her or its share of Partnership
non-recourse liabilities (if any) is greater or less than the adjusted tax basis
of his, her or its Units (taking into account any gain or loss recognized from
the sale of the Partnership assets and his, her or its receipt of a Refund or
Enhancement). Such gain or loss should be characterized as capital gain or loss.
A Tax-Exempt Limited Partner (as defined herein) may have unrelated business
taxable income as a result of the winding up and liquidation of the Partnership
if it has incurred "acquisition indebtedness" within the meaning of the Code
with respect to its Units.
See "Federal Income Tax Consequences."
INTERESTS OF GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES
The Proposal may give rise to certain conflicts of interest arising out of
the relationships among the Partnership, the General Partners and affiliates of
the General Partners, including the following:
(i) If the Proposal is approved by the Limited Partners and the
Settlement is approved by the Court and becomes final, the General Partners
and certain of their affiliates will be released from certain liabilities as
discussed in "Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- Release."
(ii) New York Life, an affiliate of the General Partners, is the
Co-Venturer of each of the Joint Ventures and will participate in the net
proceeds from the sale of the Properties in proportion to its interest in
the Joint Ventures.
(iii) Each Joint Venture agreement provides that the consent of both the
Partnership and the Co-Venturer is required for the sale of the Property
owned by the Joint Venture. The Co-Venturer has informed the Partnership,
however, that if the Proposal is approved, the Co-Venturer will consent to
the terms of any sale of the Property for cash if the terms are acceptable
to the Partnership.
(iv) Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partners would be
entitled to a Subordinated Disposition Fee (as defined therein) in
connection with the sale of a Property if the Limited Partners have received
a specified return on their capital contributions. The General Partners
believe that it is unlikely that the specified return will be achieved upon
sale of the Properties.

PRELIMINARY COPY
(v) As a condition to receipt of a Liquidation Advance from NYLIFE
Realty, each Settling Limited Partner will grant a security interest in
favor of NYLIFE Realty in his, her or its Units and any Liquidating
Distribution up to the amount of such Settling Limited Partner's Liquidation
Advance to secure the repayment of the Liquidation Advance out of such
Settling Limited Partner's Liquidating Distribution.
(vi) Each of the General Partners will receive Liquidating Distributions
as a result of its general partner interest in the Partnership. In addition,
NYLIFE Realty will receive a Liquidating Distribution as a result of its
ownership of Units. No Cash Payments will be made with respect to Units
owned by NYLIFE Realty.
See "Interests of Certain Persons in Transaction" and "The Proposal and
Reasons for the Prosposal -- Material Advantages and Disadvantages of the
Proposal to the Partners -- Advantages to General Partners."
SOLICITATION COSTS
The Partnership Agreement allows certain costs and expenses incurred by the
General Partners, including those in connection with the preparation and mailing
of the Solicitation Statement and all papers which accompany or supplement the
Solicitation Statement, to be charged to the Partnership. NYLIFE Realty,
however, has elected to pay all costs and expenses, including legal fees,
incurred in connection with the preparation, filing and distribution of this
Solicitation Statement and all accompanying or supplementary papers.
The Proprietary Partnerships have retained the services of D. F. King & Co.,
Inc. ("King") to solicit the written consents of the Limited Partners.
Additionally, Boston Financial Data Services ("BFDS") has been retained by the
General Partners, certain of their affiliates and the Plaintiffs as the class
action administrator in connection with the Lawsuit. As such, BFDS may assist in
the solicitation of written consents. Solicitation of written consents also may
be undertaken by the directors, officers, employees and agents of the General
Partners or New York Life. Solicitation may be made by mail, telephone,
telegraph, facsimile transmission or personal interview. The fees and expenses
of King and BFDS and the costs incurred by the General Partners in connection
with the solicitation of consents will be borne by NYLIFE Realty and certain of
its affiliates. See "Voting Procedures."

THE PROPOSAL AND REASONS FOR THE PROPOSAL
THE PROPOSAL
The Partnership is requesting the consent of its Limited Partners to
dissolve and terminate the Partnership. If the Proposal is approved, the assets
of the Partnership will be sold, and, after satisfaction of all Partnership
liabilities, the net proceeds of such sale will be distributed to the partners
in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. The Proposal is not
conditioned upon the Court's approval of the Settlement or the Settlement
becoming final. There can be no assurance that the Settlement will be approved
and become final.
Summarized in this Solicitation Statement are certain provisions of the
Partnership Agreement. Such summaries are qualified in their entirety by
reference to the full text of the Partnership Agreement, which has been provided
previously to the Limited Partners and copies of which may be obtained without
charge upon request to the Partnership at the address set forth under
"Incorporation by Reference."
LIQUIDATION PROCEDURES. The Partnership Agreement provides that upon
dissolution and termination of the Partnership, the General Partners shall take
full account of the Partnership's assets and liabilities, liquidate the assets
as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and
distribute the proceeds first to the payment of creditors of the Partnership and
then to the partners. Once the affairs of the Partnership have been fully
concluded, if the proceeds from the sale of the Partnership's properties are
greater than the Partnership's liabilities, the General Partners will make cash
distributions to the Limited Partners as described below under "Liquidating
Distributions." The General Partners will determine the amount, timing and
method of making any Liquidating Distributions to the Limited Partners in
accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. See "-- Liquidating
Distributions." The Partnership will terminate upon the final distribution of
the net proceeds from the liquidation of the Partnership's assets, and the
General Partners will thereafter file a Certificate of Cancellation with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware for the Limited Partnership.
SALE OF THE PARTNERSHIP'S PROPERTIES. If the Proposal is approved, the
General Partners will undertake to cause the Joint Ventures to sell the
Properties for cash as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value
thereof. Regardless of the manner of sale, the Properties may be sold with
limited representations and warranties or on an "as is, where is" basis, in
order to reduce the potential exposure of the Partnership to future claims by
purchasers of the Properties.
NYLIFE Realty and New York Life, on behalf of the Joint Ventures, have
engaged Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("Morgan Stanley") and Greystone
Realty Corporation ("Greystone") to assist in certain aspects of the sale of
Properties, should the Proposal be approved by the Limited Partners. Morgan
Stanley is an internationally recognized investment banking and advisory firm.
Morgan Stanley provides investment banking and financial advisory services.
Morgan Stanley, as part of its investment banking business, is continually
engaged in the valuation of businesses and securities in connection with
competitive biddings and valuations for corporate and other purposes. Greystone
is an affiliate of the Partnership and New York Life and has provided property
management services to the Joint Ventures since 1990. See "Certain Information
Concerning the Partnership -- General Partners and Management." Any fees payable
to Greystone in connection with the sale of the Properties will be paid by
NYLIFE Realty and New York Life, and not the Partnership.
No sale or agreement to sell the Properties has been made, and there can be
no assurance as to the price that will be received upon any such sale. The
General Partners and their affiliates will not purchase any of the Properties in
liquidation. Any such purchase would generally be prohibited by the Partnership
Agreement.
PROVISION FOR LIABILITIES. Provision will be made for the payment of all
debts and liabilities of the Partnership, including all expenses incurred in the
liquidation, prior to distribution of the proceeds realized from liquidating the
Partnership's properties and assets. See the Partnership's Financial
10
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Statements included elsewhere herein for the liabilities of the Partnership as
shown on the balance sheets of the Partnership as of December 31, 1995 and March
31, 1996. The General Partners will set aside a specified amount to meet
anticipated liabilities of the Partnership.
Under applicable Delaware law, distributions to limited partners, including
liquidating distributions, are subject to payment of or the making of reasonable
provision for all obligations of the dissolving limited partnership including
contingent, conditional or unmatured claims and obligations. In general, a
limited partnership is prohibited from making a distribution to its partners to
the extent that, after giving effect to the distribution, the partnership's
liabilities exceed the fair value of its assets. In the event a liquidating
distribution is made to the Limited Partners without payment of all such
liabilities, the Limited Partners may be liable therefor to the extent they knew
at the time of the distribution that such distribution violated Delaware law. As
the Cash Payments are not being made by the Partnership and therefore do not
constitute distributions to the Settling Limited Partners, this provision of
Delaware law will not apply to the Cash Payments and the Settling Limited
Partners will not be liable to the Partnership therefor.
LIQUIDATING DISTRIBUTIONS. After discharging all debts and liabilities of
the Partnership or making provision therefor, all remaining cash will be
distributed in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement as
summarized below. For the definitions of certain capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined see Exhibit B attached hereto. The dissolution of the
Partnership is not conditioned upon the Settlement being approved by the Court
or the Settlement becoming final. Therefore, if the Proposal is approved, there
can be no assurance that a Limited Partner will receive any amounts other than a
Liquidating Distribution.
The Partnership Agreement provides that following the payment to creditors
of the Partnership from the proceeds of the liquidation of the Partnership's
assets, any remaining proceeds shall be distributed to the Partners pursuant to
Paragraph 11 of the Partnership Agreement. Paragraph 11 provides generally as
follows:
SALES PROCEEDS FROM NON-TERMINATING SALES. The Partnership Agreement
provides that Sales Proceeds from the sale of Properties (other than from a
Terminating Sale, as discussed below) will be distributed in the following order
of priority:
(i) first, 100% to the Limited Partners until each Limited Partner has
received aggregate Sales Proceeds equal to his, her or its Capital
Contribution;
(ii) second, 100% to the Limited Partners until each Limited Partner has
received cumulative Distributions from all sources (except (i) above) equal
to a 6% cumulative, noncompounded annual return on his, her or its Adjusted
Capital Contribution;
(iii) third, after payment of the Subordinated Disposition Fee to the
General Partners, 100% to the Limited Partners until each Limited Partner
has received cumulative Distributions from all sources (except (i) above)
equal to a 10% cumulative, noncompounded annual return on his, her or its
Adjusted Capital Contribution; and
(iv) the remainder, 85% to the Limited Partners and 15% to the General
Partners.
SALES PROCEEDS FROM TERMINATING SALE. Sales Proceeds from a Terminating
Sale (defined as any Sale or Disposition of a Property that causes the
Partnership's share of the aggregate acquisition cost of all Properties that
have been sold or disposed of to exceed 75% of the Partnership's share of the
aggregate original acquisition cost of all Properties) shall be distributed
among the Partners in proportion to, and to the extent of (and as a credit to),
their respective positive capital account balances, after allocation of Net
Income or Net Loss from any Sale or Disposition.
DISTRIBUTABLE CASH FROM OPERATIONS. All Distributable Cash From Operations
will be distributed 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.
11
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
NET INCOME AND NET LOSS. Net Income (other than Net Income arising from a
Sale or Disposition) and Net Loss of the Partnership (both computed without
regard to depreciation) shall be allocated 1% to the General Partners and 99% to
the Limited Partners. All Partnership depreciation will generally be allocated
1% to the General Partners and 99% to the Taxable Investors.
Subject to the requirement that the General Partners shall at all times have
a 1% interest in all Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction or credit
(disregarding any Units owned by the General Partners), all Net Income arising
from the occurrence of a Sale (other than in connection with a Terminating Sale)
will be allocated according to the following priority: first, to each Partner in
an amount equal to the depreciation previously allocated to such Partner's Unit
(including depreciation allocated to such Unit when held by prior owners) up to
an aggregate amount equal to the depreciation deductions attributable to the
Property which is the subject of the Sale; second, to the Partners in proportion
to and to the extent of the Sales Proceeds from such Sale distributed to each
Partner, other than in repayment of Partners' Capital Contributions; and third,
the remainder will be allocated in proportion to the amount of Sales Proceeds
from such Sale distributed in repayment of Capital Contributions.
Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, in connection with a Terminating
Sale, Net Income generally will first be allocated to Partners having negative
capital account balances, to the extent of and in proportion to such negative
capital account balances. The remaining Net Income then shall be allocated to
bring the capital account balance of each Limited Partner to an amount equal to
his Capital Contribution less any Sales Proceeds distributed in repayment of
such Capital Contributions, provided, however, that if such Net Income is
insufficient to provide for such allocation, such Net Income will be allocated
so as to equalize, to the extent possible, the capital accounts of all Limited
Partners. Thereafter, such Net Income generally will be allocated to the
Partners until the capital account balance of each Partner equals the amount of
Sales Proceeds which would have been distributed to such Partner had such Sale
been a non-Terminating Sale.
Notwithstanding the foregoing allocations of Net Income, Net Loss or
depreciation, if (i) any allocation of Net Loss or depreciation to a Limited
Partner would reduce such Limited Partner's capital account balance below zero
or increase the negative balance in such Limited Partner's capital account at a
time when another Limited Partner has a positive capital account balance, and
(ii) such allocation causes the sum of the negative capital account balances of
all Partners having negative capital account balances to exceed the
Partnership's "minimum gain" (the sum of any and each gain that would be
realized by the Partnership if it disposed of each Property subject to a
non-recourse liability in a taxable transaction in full satisfaction thereof),
then such excess will instead be allocated (a) first, in the case of Net Loss,
pro rata to Limited Partners having positive capital account balances in
proportion to their respective positive capital account balances until such
capital account balances are reduced to zero and (b) second, in the case of
depreciation, pro rata to all Limited Partners having positive capital account
balances to the extent of and in proportion to their respective capital account
balances.
The Partnership Agreement also contains a "qualified income offset," which
provides that if at the close of any Partnership taxable year, the negative
capital account balance of any Partner having a negative capital account balance
(whether caused by allocations of Net Loss or depreciation or Distributions)
exceeds such Partner's share of the minimum gain (the "Capital Account
Deficiency"), then Net Income arising from a Sale or Disposition equal to such
Capital Account Deficiency shall first be allocated to each Partner having a
negative balance in the proportion to which such negative balance bears to all
negative balances of all Partners. If such allocation is not sufficient to
eliminate the Capital Account Deficiency, then an amount of gross income shall
be allocated to each Partner with a negative balance in such same proportion in
an amount necessary to eliminate the Capital Account Deficiency. The foregoing
allocations shall be made, to the extent possible, no later than when the
Capital Account Deficiency arises.
12
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
GENERAL PARTNERS' CAPITAL ACCOUNT DEFICIENCY. In the event that,
immediately prior to the dissolution of the Partnership, the General Partners
shall have a deficiency in their capital accounts as determined in accordance
with tax accounting principles, then the General Partners shall contribute in
cash to the capital of the Partnership an amount equal to whichever is the
lesser of (i) the deficiency in the General Partners' capital accounts or (ii)
the excess of 1.01% of the Limited Partners' Capital Contributions over the
total Capital Contributions of the General Partners.
PRO FORMA INFORMATION. See "Pro Forma Balance Sheet on a Liquidation Basis"
for a pro forma balance sheet of the Partnership assuming liquidation. Pro forma
information as to the amount of the total consideration to be received for each
Unit based on such pro forma balance sheet and certain other assumptions is set
forth in Exhibit C.
EFFECT OF APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSAL AND THE SETTLEMENT
CASH PAYMENTS TO SETTLING LIMITED PARTNERS. Under the Settlement, Cash
Payments will be made by NYLIFE Realty directly to Settling Limited Partners
after the Final Settlement Date. If no appeal is filed from the Final Order and
Judgment approving the Settlement, the Final Settlement Date will be 30 days
after the Court enters a Final Order and Judgment approving the Settlement. If
an appeal is filed, the Final Settlement Date will be when all appellate
proceedings have been concluded and those proceedings result in the courts
upholding the Final Order and Judgment. The Cash Payments will be made within 30
days after the Final Settlement Date, or as soon thereafter as practicable.
If the Limited Partners approve the Proposal, a Settling Limited Partner
will receive a Cash Payment that, when added to prior distributions received,
will at least equal the amount invested by that Settling Limited Partner in the
Partnership. Part of this Cash Payment will be a Liquidation Advance. The
Liquidation Advance will be the Settling Limited Partner's share of Adjusted NAV
and Distributable Working Capital. "Adjusted NAV" is the estimated market value
as of December 31, 1995, as determined by the General Partners, of the
Partnership's interests in the Joint Ventures, adjusted for the sale of any
Properties from December 31, 1995 to the Final Settlement Date.
"Distributable Working Capital" is the amount of "Working Capital" remaining
in the Partnership as of the Final Settlement Date that the General Partners
estimate will not be needed to meet outstanding liabilities, contingencies,
costs and expenses associated with winding up the Partnership. "Working Capital"
is the amount of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable (and, excluding
the value of those assets on which Adjusted NAV is based) less payables and
accrued liabilities of the Partnership, as determined by the General Partners as
of the end of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the Final Settlement
Date.
The Liquidation Advance will be repaid to NYLIFE Realty out of any
"Liquidating Distribution" made by the Partnership to a Settling Limited
Partner. The Liquidating Distribution will consist of the Partnership's cash and
other assets that remain after the Partnership's assets are sold and its
liabilities are discharged. To ensure that repayment, each Settling Limited
Partner will grant NYLIFE Realty a security interest in such Settling Limited
Partner's Units and Liquidating Distribution up to the amount of the Liquidation
Advance. If the Liquidating Distribution is less than the Liquidation Advance, a
Settling Limited Partner has no obligation to repay the difference to NYLIFE
Realty. If a Settling Limited Partner's Liquidating Distribution exceeds the
Liquidation Advance, then that Settling Limited Partner will receive the excess
amount in up to two installments as the Partnership is liquidated and
liabilities are satisfied.
The second part of the Cash Payment to a Settling Limited Partner will be
either a "Refund" or an "Enhancement." A Refund will be paid if the Liquidation
Advance, plus all prior distributions, is less than the amount invested by a
Settling Limited Partner in a Partnership. The Refund portion of the Cash
Payment will be equal to that difference. An Enhancement will be paid if the
Liquidation Advance, plus all prior distributions, equal or exceeds the amount
invested by a Settling Limited
13
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Partner in the Partnership. The Enhancement will be equal to $.40 multiplied by
the number of Units of the Partnership owned by the Settling Limited Partner. In
no event will a Settling Limited Partner receive less than $200 as a Refund or
an Enhancement.
The Refund or the Enhancement, together with the Liquidation Advance, form
the consideration provided to a Settling Limited Partner in exchange for the
release of claims that is provided under the Settlement. The Enhancement is
being offered to the Settling Limited Partners who have received a full return
on their investments as consideration for the Release they will grant the
Defendants. Due to their individual circumstances, Settling Limited Partners who
receive an Enhancement will be receiving, together with the Liquidation Advance
and prior distributions, an aggregate return on their investment that is more
than the return on investment obtained by Settling Limited Partners who receive
a Refund. All Settling Limited Partners, however, will receive at least a return
on their investment, taking account of prior distributions.
If the Proposal is approved by the Limited Partners and the Settlement
becomes final, it is anticipated that Settling Limited Partners who are original
purchasers of Units will receive the Refund plus the Liquidation Advance. Based
on current estimates, a Settling Limited Partner who purchased $10,000 worth of
Units in June 1987 in the initial closing of the public offering by the
Partnership of the Units could expect to receive a Liquidation Advance of $4,340
and a Refund of $1,612, as a Cash Payment. These estimates are based on
assumptions the General Partners believe to be reasonable but which are
inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Furthermore, the estimated payment does
not include an estimate of a Settling Limited Partner's pro rata share of
Distributable Working Capital. The Liquidation Advance that a Limited Partner
would receive would include such amount. These estimates are likely to change
between now and the Final Settlement Date as a result of distributions from the
Partnership and other factors. The actual Cash Payment received by a Settling
Limited Partner will also depend upon the amount paid for the Units and the
distributions received as of the Final Settlement Date. See Exhibit C for
further detail regarding estimated payments to Limited Partners and the
assumptions on which such estimates are based.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Settling Limited Partner is a defined
benefit plan under the Employee Retirement Income and Security Act of 1974, as
amended ("ERISA"), and the receipt of the Liquidation Advance or the granting of
a security interest in the Units would be a prohibited transaction under ERISA
or the Code, then such Settling Limited Partner will be entitled to receive the
Refund or the Enhancement, as the case may be, but not the Liquidation Advance.
In such event, the Refund or Enhancement will be calculated as if the
Liquidation Advance had been paid. Such Settling Limited Partner will also be
entitled to its proportionate share of any Liquidating Distributions made by the
Partnership. A prohibited transaction will generally occur if NYLIFE Realty is,
or is affiliated with, a fiduciary or employer of, or a service provider to, the
plan that is the Settling Limited Partner.
Cash Payments under the Settlement will not be made to a Limited Partner who
elects not to participate in the Settlement. Such "Non-Settling Limited
Partners" will receive only a Liquidating Distribution, which will not include
any Refund or Enhancement amount, and thus will be less than the amount the
Non-Settling Limited Partner would have received if that Limited Partner had
elected to participate in the Settlement.
EFFECT OF THE SETTLEMENT ON LIQUIDATING DISTRIBUTIONS. If the Proposal is
approved by the Limited Partners and the Settlement is approved by the Court and
becomes final, the Partnership Agreement will govern the amount of proceeds
distributed to the partners as described above under "-- The Proposal --
Liquidating Distributions." However, under the terms of the Settlement
Agreement, the Liquidating Distributions would be paid in up to two
installments.
The first installment will be paid within 30 days, or as soon as practicable
thereafter, after the General Partners determine the reserve (the "Reserve")
necessary to meet anticipated liabilities of the Partnership. The second
installment will be paid within 30 days, or as soon as practicable thereafter,
after all liabilities, contingencies and other obligations of the Partnership
(including, without limitation, debts to the General Partners) have been
satisfied or otherwise provided for, to the
14
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
extent that there is any remaining Reserve. As each Settling Limited Partner
will already have received an advance from NYLIFE Realty of his, her or its
share of liquidation proceeds up to the amount of his, her or its Liquidation
Advance, such Settling Limited Partner's share of proceeds up to the amount of
his, her or its Liquidation Advance will instead be distributed to NYLIFE Realty
in repayment of such Liquidation Advance. If a Settling Limited Partner's
Liquidating Distribution is less than the amount such Settling Limited Partner
received as a Liquidation Advance, such Settling Limited Partner will not be
obligated to repay the difference to NYLIFE Realty.
CONSENT OF LIMITED PARTNERS TO THE PROPOSAL
The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership is to be dissolved
and terminated upon a Majority Vote in favor of such dissolution and
termination. A "Majority Vote" is defined in the Partnership Agreement as the
affirmative vote of Limited Partners who own more than 50% of the total
outstanding Units. As of the Record Date, there were 2,833,925.5 Units
outstanding. Therefore, Limited Partners holding at least 1,416,963 Units must
consent for the Partnership to be dissolved and terminated. NYLIFE Realty owns
2,016.4 Units and will consent to the Proposal with respect to the Units owned
by it.
If Limited Partners owning more than 50% of the total outstanding Units vote
to dissolve and terminate the Partnership, pursuant to the terms of the
Partnership Agreement, Limited Partners who did not join in such consent will
nevertheless be bound by the decision to dissolve. Failure to return a consent
card will have the effect of a vote against the Proposal. An abstention from
voting on the Proposal will effectively count as a negative vote with respect to
the Proposal. Broker non-votes expressly indicating a lack of discretionary
authority to consent also will effectively count as a negative vote with respect
to the Proposal. See "Voting Procedures."
EFFECT ON LIMITED PARTNERS AND PARTNERSHIP IF PROPOSAL IS NOT APPROVED
If the Proposal is not approved, the Partnership will continue to own and
operate the Properties and, depending on the Properties' performances, the
Partnership may continue to earn income and make distributions to the Partners.
Consistent with the Partnership's investment objectives, the General Partners
may solicit offers for the sale of the Properties as opportunities arise. In any
such sale, the Partnership would benefit from any increase in the value of the
Properties and suffer further loss from any decrease in the value of the
Properties. Failure by the Limited Partners to approve the Proposal will not
affect the rights of the Limited Partners under the Partnership Agreement.
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, if the consents necessary to
dissolve and terminate the Partnership have not been obtained by the Final
Settlement Date, the New York Life Defendants will have the option of either (a)
terminating the proposed Settlement as it applies to the Partnership and the
Settling Limited Partners or (b) paying to each Settling Limited Partner the
Refund or the Enhancement, as the case may be, but not the Liquidation Advance,
in exchange for a Release from such Settling Limited Partner. See "Litigation
and Proposed Settlement -- Potential Termination of the Settlement Agreement
with Respect to the Partnership." Whether the Settling Limited Partner would be
entitled to receive the Refund or the Enhancement depends upon the amount paid
for the subject Units by the Settling Limited Partner, the distributions
received as of the Final Settlement Date on such Units by the Settling Limited
Partner and the amount of the Liquidation Advance the Settling Limited Partner
would have received had the Proposal been approved and the Settlement become
final. Thus, if the Limited Partners do not consent to the dissolution of the
Partnership by approving the Proposal, Settling Limited Partners will not be
assured of receiving, in the aggregate, payments that are at least equal to
their investment in the Partnership. There can be no assurance that the future
performance of the Partnership or the outcome of the Lawsuit or any possible
future settlement thereof will result in a return on investment to Limited
Partners that equals or exceeds the return facilitated by the approval of the
Proposal and the Settlement becoming final.

INVESTMENT COMMITTEE AND BOARD DETERMINATIONS
Based on the reasons set forth under "-- Reasons for the Proposal" by action
of the Investment Committee and the respective boards of directors, the
Investment Committee and each of the General Partners have determined that it is
in the best interest of the Limited Partners that the Proposal be approved.
THE INVESTMENT COMMITTEE AND THE BOARDS OF DIRECTORS OF THE GENERAL PARTNERS
HAVE APPROVED THE PROPOSAL AND RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSAL BY THE LIMITED
PARTNERS.
REASONS FOR THE PROPOSAL
The General Partners believe that it is in the best interests of the Limited
Partners to approve the Proposal for the following reasons:
1. LIQUIDITY. There is no established trading market for the Units.
Dissolution of the Partnership will provide Limited Partners the opportunity to
receive cash in liquidation of their investment in the Partnership and make
alternative investments. The prospectus for the Public Offering stated that the
Partnership's scheduled investment horizon was seven to ten years, subject to
market conditions, the performance of the Properties and the General Partner's
evaluation of the anticipated economic benefits of continued ownership of the
Properties. All of the Properties in which the Partnership currently has an
interest were acquired more than seven years ago, and thus dissolution of the
Partnership at this time will provide Limited Partners with investment liquidity
within their original expected timeframe. See "Selected Financial Data" for
information concerning cash distributions made by the Partnership. There can be
no assurance that any alternative investments would generate returns that are
equivalent to or greater than those being earned by an investment in the
Partnership. Pursuant to a preliminary injunction issued by the Court, Limited
Partners who have not excluded themselves from the Class have been enjoined from
transferring their Units except in certain specified circumstances. If the
Proposal is approved by the Limited Partners and the Settlement is approved by
the Court and becomes final, Settling Limited Partners will not be permitted to
transfer their Units. Settling Limited Partners will, however, receive the Cash
Payment. See "Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- The Hearing Order and the
Settlement Hearing."
2. FAVORABLE MARKET CONDITIONS. The General Partners believe that this may
be an opportune time to sell the Properties. The Properties have achieved
improved operations during the past two years. While the Partnership could
continue to hold the Properties for several more years in the hope that the
Properties may increase in value, sale of the Properties and liquidation of the
Partnership at this time offers Limited Partners an opportunity to liquidate
their investment in the Partnership during a period of favorable conditions in
the real estate market.
3. COST OF MAINTAINING THE PARTNERSHIP. Continuing to operate the
Partnership as a public partnership requires ongoing expenditures as overhead
costs associated with investor relations and investor servicing, as well as
legal and accounting costs associated with required compliance reporting. The
Partnership is subject to federal and state securities laws and the terms of the
Partnership Agreement under which periodic reports and annual financial
statements are required to be generated by the Partnership. The cost of
completing these reports and financial statements is paid out of the revenues of
the Partnership. In late 1994, the Partnership sold its interest in Parklane,
and if the proposals are not approved, the Partnership may consider selling
additional Properties in the future. Each sale results in a reduction in the
number of Properties generating revenues to cover these overhead costs.
MATERIAL ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THE PROPOSAL TO THE PARTNERS
ADVANTAGES TO LIMITED PARTNERS. If the Proposal is approved, the
Partnership's assets will be sold as soon as practicable. The liquidation has
the potential of allowing the Limited Partners to
17
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
realize a greater overall return on investment than continued operations because
of current favorable conditions in the real estate market. See "The Proposal and
Reasons for the Proposal -- Reasons for the Proposal -- Favorable Market
Conditions."
If the Proposal is approved, Limited Partners will receive cash in
liquidation of their investment. This would allow Limited Partners who desire
liquidity in their investment in the Partnership to dispose of their Units,
which might otherwise be difficult because there is no established trading
market for the Units. See "The Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Reasons
for the Proposal -- Liquidity."
Futhermore, if the Settlement is approved and becomes final, and the
Proposal is approved with respect to the Partnership, a Settling Limited Partner
will receive an amount which, together with prior distributions from the
Partnership, will be at least equal to the Settling Limited Partner's total
investment in the Partnership. Additionally, a Settling Limited Partner will
receive any amounts by which the Liquidating Distribution exceeds the
Liquidation Advance to the Settling Limited Partner. See "-- Summary of
Potential Payments to Limited Partners" for a summary of the types of payments a
Limited Partner might receive under various alternatives in connection with the
proposed Settlement and the Proposal.
DISADVANTAGES TO LIMITED PARTNERS. If the Proposal is approved, the Limited
Partner will no longer have any rights in the Partnership's properties and will
not benefit from any potential increases in the value of the Properties or
receive any semiannual distributions from the Partnership.
If the Proposal is approved and the Partnership is not excluded from the
Settlement, a Settling Limited Partner will release and discharge the Defendants
and certain of their affiliates, agents and various other persons and entities
from, INTER ALIA, any and all causes of action that were, could have been, may
be or could be alleged in connection with the Proprietary Partnerships,
including the Partnerships, and any other limited partnership or other direct
investment program created, sponsored, marketed, sold, operated or managed by
the Defendants. See "Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- Release," and the
Class Note that previously sent to Limited Partners included in the Class.
ADVANTAGES TO GENERAL PARTNERS. If the Proposal is approved, the General
Partners will receive certain amounts from the proceeds of the liquidation in
connection with their ownership of general partner interests and Units of the
Partnership. The estimated amounts to be received by the General Partners in
connection with the liquidation of the Partnership, based on the pro forma
balance sheet on a liquidation basis and certain other assumptions, are set
forth in Exhibit C. In addition to such monetary benefits, the General Partners
will receive the benefit of any Releases executed by Settling Limited Partners.
ESTIMATED FINANCIAL EFFECTS OF IMMEDIATE LIQUIDATION VERSUS CONTINUED OPERATION
OF THE PARTNERSHIP
As described more fully above under "-- Material Advantages and
Disadvantages of the Proposal to the Partners," the General Partners believe
that liquidation of the Partnership has the potential for providing a greater
aggregate return to the Limited Partners than continued operation of the
Partnership because current market conditions for sale of the Properties are
favorable while continuing to operate the Partnership as a public partnership
requires ongoing expenditures that reduce the revenues of the Partnership. If
the Partnership is not liquidated, however, the Partnership may continue to earn
income and make distributions to the partners, and the partners would benefit
from any increase in the value of the Properties and suffer further loss from
any decrease in the value of the Properties upon their ultimate sale.
LITIGATION AND PROPOSED SETTLEMENT
THE LAWSUIT AND THE CLASS MEMBERS
On January 11, 1996, Evelyn Shea and Ann Grimshawe ("Plaintiffs") filed
separate class action complaints in the District Court of Harris County, Texas
("Texas State Court"), against NYLIFE
18
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Equity Inc., New York Life, NYLIFE Inc. and NYLIFE Securities Inc. (collectively
with all predecessors and successors of these entities, and the affiliated
entities identified below, the "New York Life Defendants"), and American
Exploration Production Company and American Exploration Company (collectively,
the "American Defendants"). The New York Life Defendants and the American
Defendants are sometimes collectively referred to as the "Defendants." The
Plaintiffs' allegations against the Defendants included fraud, breach of
fiduciary duties, violation of the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. Rules of Fair Practice by NYLIFE Securities Inc., negligent
misrepresentation, breach of implied covenants, and violation of Texas state
securities laws.
On March 18, 1996, Plaintiffs filed a complaint in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Florida captioned SHEA, ET AL. V.
NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE CO., ET AL. (the "Lawsuit"), amplifying claims alleged
in the complaints filed in Texas State Court, alleging violations of various
federal securities and state laws, naming NYLIFE Realty and CNP as additional
New York Life Defendants and including allegations concerning the Partnership.
Plaintiffs purport to represent a class of all persons who purchased or
otherwise assumed rights and title to interests in certain limited partnerships,
including the Partnership, and other programs created, sponsored, marketed,
sold, operated or managed by the Defendants from January 1, 1985 through March
18, 1996 (the "Proprietary Partnerships"). The Plaintiffs requested compensatory
damages for their lost original investment, plus, interest, costs (including
attorneys' fees), punitive damages, disgorgement of any earnings, compensation
and benefits received by the Defendants as a result of the alleged actions and
other unspecified relief to which Plantiffs may be entitled.
On March 19, 1996, the Plaintiffs and the Defendants filed with the Court a
Stipulation of Settlement (the "Settlement Agreement") that sets forth the terms
of the proposed Settlement of the claims underlying the Lawsuit. The Settlement
Agreement provides that the Plaintiffs will serve as the representatives of all
persons (the "Class" or "Class Members") who purchased an interest ("Proprietary
Investment Units") in any of the Proprietary Partnerships. Expressly excluded
from the Class are investors who signed a document that released the New York
Life Defendants from any claims concerning such investments. The Defendants have
agreed separately that they will not participate in the Settlement with respect
to any Proprietary Investment Units that they own. The Defendants will receive
any Liquidating Distributions with respect to the Units they own and their
general partner interests, as well as any other payments to which they are
entitiled under the various agreements relating to the Proprietary Partnerships.
On May 3, 1996, the Texas State Court entered an order dismissing the Texas
proceedings without prejudice, and provided the dismissal would be with
prejudice upon final disposition of the Lawsuit.
DENIAL OF CLAIMS
Prior to the institution of the Lawsuit, the New York Life Defendants
determined that it would be in the best interests of the investors in certain
Proprietary Partnerships, including the Partnership, to terminate such
partnerships and, in connection therewith, to provide certain payments to the
limited partners that would be in addition to any amounts they would receive
upon liquidation of the partnerships, although the New York Life Defendants had
no obligation to do so. The Defendants expressly deny any wrongdoing alleged in
the Lawsuit and do not concede any wrongdoing or liability in connection with
any of the facts or claims that have been alleged against them in the Lawsuit.
The Defendants consider it desirable, however, for the Settlement to be effected
because such Settlement will: (i) provide substantial benefits to the Class
Members, in a manner consistent with New York Life's prior determination to wind
up most of the Proprietary Partnerships through orderly liquidation because the
continuation of the business no longer served the intended objectives of either
the Defendants or the owners of interests in such partnerships; (ii) confer
substantial benefits on the Defendants and current limited partners of the
Proprietary Partnerships by providing an opportunity not only to wind up the
Proprietary Partnerships on a schedule favorable to the Class, but also to
resolve the issues presented by the Lawsuit with respect to the sale of
interests in and operation of the
19
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Proprietary Partnerships; and (iii) put Plaintiffs' claims and the underlying
matters to rest without undue expense to the Class while reducing the burdens
and uncertainties associated with protracted litigation of the claims underlying
the Lawsuit.
PAYMENT UNDER THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT TO THE LIMITED PARTNERS
The terms of the Settlement Agreement, with respect to the Partnership,
generally provide that each Settling Limited Partner who is a Class Member, and
who has not excluded himself, herself or itself from the Class by following the
procedures outlined by the Court, will receive the Liquidation Advance and
either the Refund or the Enhancement, as the case may be, as described more
fully under "The Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal."
THE HEARING ORDER AND THE SETTLEMENT HEARING
On March 19, 1996, the Court issued the Hearing Order, which, among other
things, certified the Class for settlement purposes only and directed
Defendants, or their designee(s), to cause the Class Notice to be mailed to all
potential Class Members at their last known address no later than 90 days before
the Settlement Hearing. The Class Notice previously was sent to the Limited
Partners, and each of the Limited Partners should refer to the Class Notice for
further information regarding the Lawsuit, the Settlement and the Settlement
Hearing, which the Court currently has scheduled for July 3, 1996.
Among other things, the Hearing Order preliminarily enjoins all Class
Members who have not excluded themselves from the Class from selling,
transferring, pledging, encumbering, hypothecating or assigning any Unit they
own or in which they have an interest, PROVIDED THAT (i) the Court may for good
cause shown by a Class Member allow a transfer notwithstanding the injunction
and (ii) any Class Member may transfer a Unit where such Class Member agrees in
writing to be bound by the Release described in the Class Notice and to waive
any right to receive benefits under the proposed Settlement, in which case the
person to whom the Unit(s) are transferred will be entitled to the benefits that
the Class Member would have received but for the transfer.
POTENTIAL TERMINATION OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT
The Settlement Agreement is not yet final and could be terminated for
various reasons. The Settlement will become final only after the Court enters a
Final Order and Judgment approving the Settlement and the period for appeal
thereof has expired or, if the Final Order and Judgment is appealed, on the date
on which all appeals have been finally disposed of in a manner that affirms the
Final Order and Judgment. There can be no assurance that such approval will be
obtained or that the Settlement will become final.
Plaintiffs have the right to terminate the Settlement Agreement under the
circumstances specified therein. In addition, Defendants may unilaterally
terminate the Settlement Agreement (a) with respect to all of the Proprietary
Partnerships taken together if those persons who elect to exclude themselves
from the Class (i) together number more than 3% of all Class Members, or (ii)
have ownership interests in the Proprietary Partnerships that together account
for more than 3% of all capital invested by limited partners in the Proprietary
Partnerships; (b) with respect to a particular Proprietary Partnership, if those
persons who elect to exclude themselves from the Class with respect to such
Proprietary Partnership (i) together number more than 3% of all those who are
Class Members with respect to such partnership, or (ii) have ownership interests
in such partnership that together account for more than 3% of all capital
invested by limited partners in such partnership; (c) if the votes, consents or
authorizations necessary to dissolve and liquidate four or more of the
Proprietary Partnerships are not obtained; (d) if any state or federal
regulator, self-regulatory organization or other administrative body or official
(i) objects either to any aspect or term of the Settlement Agreement or to the
transactions to be entered into to facilitate the proposed Settlement and takes
or threatens to take any regulatory or legal action that would impair the
ability of the parties to conclude the Settlement on the terms set forth in the
Settlement Agreement or (ii) requires as a condition of not taking action any
modification to the Settlement Agreement, including, without limitation, any
constriction or extension of the scope of the contemplated relief, that the
Defendants in their sole
20
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
discretion reasonably believe would impair their ability to consummate the
Settlement or to provide the contemplated relief; or (e) if a final order
dismissing the Texas State Court actions with prejudice, which is no longer
appealable, has not been entered by the Final Settlement Date.
POTENTIAL TERMINATION OF THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE
PARTNERSHIP
If the consents necessary to dissolve the Partnership have not been obtained
by the Final Settlement Date, the Defendants may either (i) unilaterally
terminate the Settlement Agreement as it applies to the Partnership and Limited
Partners, or (ii) pay each Settling Limited Partner the Refund or the
Enhancement, as the case may be, but not the Liquidation Advance, in exchange
for a Release from such Settling Limited Partner. If the Defendants choose the
latter option, a Settling Limited Partner will receive the Refund or the
Enhancement, as the case may be, in an amount equal to the amount of the Refund
or Enhancement he, she or it would have received had the Proposal been approved
and the Liquidation Advance been paid.
RELEASE
Effective as of the Final Settlement Date, Plaintiffs and all Class Members
who did not exclude themselves from the Class, including the Settling Limited
Partners, agree that they will release and discharge the Defendants and certain
of their affiliates, agents and various other persons and entities from, INTER
ALIA, any and all causes of action that were, could have been, may be or could
be alleged in connection with the Proprietary Partnerships, including the
Partnership, or any other limited partnership or other direct investment program
created, sponsored, marketed, sold, operated or managed by the Defendants. The
Class Notice previously provided to each of the Limited Partners sets forth
further information regarding the scope of the Release.
FINAL APPROVAL AND FINAL ORDER AND JUDGMENT
Until the Settlement becomes final as described in the Class Notice, NYLIFE
Realty will not be obligated to pay any amounts to the Settling Limited Partners
in connection with the Settlement.
REGULATORY APPROVALS
Other than the filing of a Certificate of Cancellation with the Secretary of
State of the State of Delaware and a filing with the Commission to deregister
the Units, the General Partners are not aware of any federal or state regulatory
requirements that must be complied with or any approval of a state or federal
body that is necessary to proceed with the dissolution and termination of the
Partnership other than any such requirement or approval that may arise in
connection with the sale of the Partnership's assets due to (i) the identity of
the purchaser or purchasers of the Partnership's properties and assets or (ii)
the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, which may
require certain information to be filed with the Department of Justice and the
Federal Trade Commission and may require certain waiting periods to be satisfied
prior to such sale. Following final liquidation of the Partnership and the
deregistration of the Units under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Partnership's obligations to file
reports under the Exchange Act will terminate. Additionally, in order to proceed
with the Settlement, the final approval of the Court must be obtained.
CERTAIN INFORMATION CONCERNING THE PARTNERSHIP
GENERAL
The Partnership is a Delaware limited partnership that was formed on
November 14, 1986 solely for the purpose of investing in real estate, primarily
through Joint Ventures that would invest in, hold, manage and sell existing
commercial properties. The Partnership presently has investments in three Joint
Ventures with New York Life as the Co-Venturer. Through these Joint Ventures,
the Partnership holds interests in three Properties: an office building in Blue
Ash, Ohio, a suburb of Cincinnati ("Cornell"); three commercial buildings in
Eden Prairie, Minnesota, a suburb of Minneapolis ("Eden Woods"); and a shopping
center in Columbus, Ohio ("NewMarket"). In December 1994, a fourth Joint
21
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Venture in which the Partnership had been a co-venturer sold its property, an
office building in Brentwood, Tennessee, a suburb of Nashville ("Parklane"). On
February 15, 1995, the Partnership distributed its share of the Parklane cash
reserve and net sales proceeds aggregating $4,129,702 to the partners of the
Partnership.
The Joint Ventures for Cornell and Parklane were funded 60% by the
Partnership and 40% by the Co-Venturer. The Joint Venture for Eden Woods was
funded 47.06% by the Partnership and 52.94% by the Co-Venturer. The Joint
Venture for NewMarket was originally funded 47.09% by the Partnership and 52.91%
by the Co-Venturer. However, additional capital contributions to such Joint
Venture have resulted in ownership interests of 43.82% and 56.18% for the
Partnership and the Co-Venturer, respectively, at December 31, 1995. All Joint
Venture income, losses and distributions are generally apportioned pro-rata
between the Partnership and the Co-Venturer in proportion to their respective
contributions to the Joint Ventures.
The Partnership's primary investment objectives are to (i) preserve and
protect the Partnership's assets, (ii) provide quarterly distributions to
partners and (iii) provide growth of capital through appreciation of the
Properties. The attainment of the Partnership's investment objectives depends on
many factors, including current and future economic conditions in the United
States as a whole and in the localities in which the Properties are located in
particular, and the quality of property management provided to the Joint
Ventures by local property managers. All of the Properties were acquired with a
view towards a seven to ten year holding period.
The Partnership concluded the Public Offering of Units of limited
partnership interests on June 30, 1989. As of such date, the Partnership had
raised gross proceeds of $28,339,255 from the sale of 2,833,925.5 Units to 3,383
Limited Partners. In addition, the General Partners contributed $2,000 to the
Partnership for their general partner interests. As of December 31, 1995, a
total of $9,586,037 in cash distributions had been made to the Limited Partners
and $66,470 in cash distributions had been made to the General Partners since
the formation of the Partnership. Limited Partners who purchased their Units in
the initial closing of the Public Offering in June 1987 have received total cash
distributions of $4.05 per Unit or 40.5% of their initial investment.
GENERAL PARTNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The General Partners of the Partnership are NYLIFE Realty, a Delaware
corporation and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Co-Venturer, and
CNP, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of NYLIFE Realty.
NYLIFE Realty is primarily responsible for both property-related and Partnership
administrative matters. An agreement provides that a management committee (the
"Investment Committee") composed of six persons, three from each General
Partner, must approve all major decisions with respect to the Partnership's
business.
The Partnership is the managing partner of each Joint Venture, responsible
for management of the day-to-day operations and implementing the joint decisions
of the Joint Ventures' partners. Each Joint Venture agreement provides that a
management committee composed of two representatives from the Partnership and
two representatives from the Co-Venturer must approve all major decisions with
respect to each Joint Venture's business. Such representatives are all employees
of New York Life.
Since January 1, 1990, property management services have been provided to
the Joint Ventures by Greystone Realty Corporation ("Greystone"), an affiliate
of the Partnership and New York Life. Prior to that date, Greystone had been
managing the Co-Venturer's interest in each of the Joint Ventures. Greystone has
contracted with local property and leasing agents to provide property management
services at each of the Properties. Local property and leasing agents are paid a
property management fee by the Joint Ventures equal to a percentage of gross
revenues received by them from the Properties. In addition, Greystone is paid a
management fee by the Joint Ventures for their management services in accordance
with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
22
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Neither the Partnership nor any of the Joint Ventures has any employees nor
do they expect to have any employees. During the years ended December 31, 1995
and 1994, certain employees of New York Life and its affiliates performed
accounting, secretarial and administrative services for the Partnership. A
portion of the costs of such services allocable to the Partnership were
reimbursed by the Partnership in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
The principal executive offices of each of the General Partners are located
at 51 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10010, and the telephone number for
each General Partner is (212) 576-7000. An audited consolidated balance sheet
for NYLIFE Realty is set forth under "Certain Financial Information with Respect
to NYLIFE Realty Inc." included herein.
RIGHTS AND POWERS OF LIMITED PARTNERS
Upon dissolution and termination of the Partnership, the Limited Partners
will no longer have an interest in the Partnership's assets and business and
will be giving up all of their rights under the Partnership Agreement. The
Limited Partners of the Partnership may not take part in the control of the
business or affairs of the Partnership and have no voice in the management or
operations of the Partnership. Their lack of a voice in management and control
is necessary to limit liability in excess of their investment in the Partnership
and their share of undistributed profits from the Partnership (subject to the
obligation of a Limited Partner to return distributions to him, her or it under
certain circumstances). The Limited Partners:
(i) share all profits, losses and distributions of the Partnership in
accordance with the Partnership Agreement;
(ii) have their liability for operations of the Partnership limited to
the amount of their capital contributions and to their shares of Partnership
capital and undistributed net revenues of the Partnership, if any; provided,
however, that under applicable partnership law the Limited Partners may
under certain circumstances be required to repay to the Partnership amounts
previously distributed to them by the Partnership (see "The Proposals and
Reasons for the Proposals -- The Proposal -- Provision for Liabilities");
(iii) have the right to inspect books and records relating to the
activities of the Partnership at all reasonable times;
(iv) receive financial statements, income tax information and certain
other reports referred to in the Partnership Agreement;
(v) have the right to assign their Units to the extent and as provided
in Paragraph 12 of the Partnership Agreement;
(vi) have the right to propose and vote on certain matters affecting the
Partnership as provided in Paragraph 16 of the Partnership Agreement;
(vii) have the right to dissolution and winding up of the Limited
Partnership by decree of court as provided for in the Delaware Revised
Uniform Limited Partnership Act; and
(viii) have the right to dissolve and terminate the Partnership or to
continue the Partnership as described below under "-- Term and Dissolution
of the Partnership."
TERM AND DISSOLUTION OF THE PARTNERSHIP
The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership will continue for a
maximum period ending December 31, 2036, but may be dissolved at an earlier date
if certain contingencies occur. The contingencies whereupon the Partnership may
be dissolved at an earlier date are as follows:
(a) withdrawal, removal, adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency of a
General Partner, dissolution or other cessation to exist as a legal entity

PROPERTIES
The Partnership currently has investments in three Joint Ventures, each of
which owns a Property. The Properties are described below.
CORNELL PLAZA OFFICE BUILDING. On March 30, 1988, the Partnership, through
a Joint Venture ("Joint Venture A") with the Co-Venturer, acquired an interest
in an office building known as Cornell Plaza Office Building ("Cornell") located
in Blue Ash, Ohio. Joint Venture A acquired the fee simple title for a purchase
price of $9,550,000, of which $5,730,000 represents the Partnership's 60% share
of the purchase price, $34,964 represents the Partnership's 60% share of the
Acquisition Expenses and $136,512 represents the Partnership's 100% share of
Acquisition Fees. No mortgage or other indebtedness has been incurred in
connection with the acquisition of Cornell.
Cornell is a five-story office building containing 97,790 gross sq. ft. and
85,625 net rentable sq. ft. The net rentable sq. ft. at Cornell decreased from
85,946 at December 31, 1994 as the building was remeasured to reflect slight
changes in common areas. The building was completed in 1985 and is situated on a
5.6 acre site which provides parking for 302 cars.
The Blue Ash submarket is one of the strongest markets in the Cincinnati
area. Cornell is a class "A" building of superior quality with a stable
occupancy rate and income stream.
Overall, 15% of suburban Cincinnati office space was vacant at the end of
1995. The Blue Ash submarket reported a vacancy rate of 14% as compared to
Cornell's vacancy rate of 3% at December 31, 1995. Cincinnati's overall office
market was adversely impacted during the past four years by significant
downsizing by several locally-based firms, including Procter & Gamble, General
Electric Aircraft Engines, Marion Merrell Dow and U.S. Shoe. Fortunately, few of
these cutbacks directly affected the Blue Ash submarket as affected companies
were concentrated in the Tri-County, Warren County and Central Business District
areas.
Build to suit properties constructed in 1993 also impacted the market.
Buildings for Lenscrafters and Honey Baked Hams created large blocks of space.
Additionally, Procter & Gamble completed its $280 million Health Care and
Research Center in Warren County during 1995. This resulted in an additional
100,000 sq. ft. of leasable space for the Blue Ash submarket.
A two-story 40,000 sq. ft. office building directly adjacent to Cornell
Plaza was fully vacated when its tenant, Heekin Can, was acquired by Ball
Manufacturing and employees were consolidated into other locations. However,
this building is not considered a Class "A" property and does not compete
directly with Cornell Plaza.
24
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Despite the space being vacated by tenants moving to build to suit
properties, only two blocks of space greater than 15,000 sq. ft. exist in the
market. The majority of the available space is in the 3,000 to 8,000 sq. ft.
range and landlords are aggressive in competing for smaller tenants.
Employment growth is expected over the next several years due to the new
Delta Airlines $375 million hub expansion project which opened in 1994. This
expansion project, combined with the continued expansion of local firms in the
technology, health care, distribution and retail sectors, support such
expectations.
The following table highlights pertinent data relating to Cornell for the
years 1995, 1994 and 1993:

</TABLE>
Generally, leases contain provisions requiring tenants to pay their pro-rata
share of real estate taxes and operating expenses in addition to their annual
base rent.
EDEN WOODS BUSINESS CENTER. On August 23, 1988, the Partnership, through a
Joint Venture ("Joint Venture C") with the Co-Venturer, acquired three buildings
known as Eden Woods Business Center ("Eden Woods") located in Eden Prairie,
Minnesota, a suburb located eight miles southwest of Minneapolis' Central
Business District. Joint Venture C acquired the fee title to Eden Woods for a
purchase price of $10,900,000 and paid Acquisition Fees of $46,213 and
Acquisition Expenses of $53,570, resulting in a total cash investment of
$10,999,783. As of December 31, 1995, the Partnership and the Co-Venturer had
interests in Joint Venture C of 47.06% and 52.94%, respectively. No mortgage or
other indebtedness was incurred by Joint Venture C in connection with the
purchase of Eden Woods.
Eden Woods is a complex of flex buildings, which are defined as a
combination of office and industrial (warehouse, showroom, assembly, and light
manufacturing) space, with a two-tiered rent structure based on the percentage
of space used for each purpose. Eden Woods is comprised of three one-story
buildings containing a total of 165,866 net rentable sq. ft., of which 54% is
office space and 46% is industrial space. The buildings are constructed of steel
and masonry frame with an exterior of brick and block facial structure. The
12.65 acre site is heavily wooded and provides surface parking for 509 cars.
Management believes that the southwest suburban market is one of the most
desirable locations in the Minneapolis market for office/showroom and
office/warehouse markets. The office/showroom market is the tightest industrial
product type in the southwest market, reporting a 2.6% vacancy rate.
Additionally, despite the low vacancy rates, there are no new office/showroom
projects planned for 1996. New construction has been mostly build-to-suit
projects with some office/warehouse construction.
Lease rates in the southwest region market range from $3.50 to $4.75 per sq.
ft. for industrial space, and $7.75 to $9.00 per sq. ft. for office space. Lease
rates before rental concessions at Eden Woods approximate market levels at $8.75
per sq. ft. for office space and $4.50 per sq. ft. for warehouse space. Tenant
improvement allowances are $10 to $15 per sq. ft. for office space for new
tenants.
Approximately 62,500 sq. ft, or 38%, of Eden Woods' leases expire during
1996. This amount includes 42,500 sq. ft. occupied by one tenant, Lawrence
Jewelry. The Lawrence Jewelry lease expired on December 31, 1995, but the tenant
extended its lease for one month and vacated on January 31, 1996. The balance of
the expiring space of approximately 20,000 sq. ft. has been leased by Netstar to
1999. One existing tenant, Edentec, currently occupying approximately 15,000 sq.
ft. will relocate
25
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
within the Property and expand into approximately 22,000 sq. ft. formerly
occupied by Lawrence Jewelry. The space to be vacated by Edentec will also be
leased by Netstar. Additionally, Netstar will also lease another 3,000 sq. ft.
currently occupied by another Eden Woods tenant. Once these expansions and moves
are complete, there will be approximately 21,000 sq. ft. remaining to be leased
at the Property. Management is currently in negotiations with prospective
tenants and expects to have the space leased within 90 days although there can
be no assurance that it will be able to do so.

years 1995, 1994 and 1993:

NEWMARKET SHOPPING CENTER. On December 22, 1988, the Partnership, through a
Joint Venture ("Joint Venture D") with the Co-Venturer, acquired a one-story
retail shopping center known as NewMarket Shopping Center ("NewMarket") located
in northwestern Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio. Joint Venture D acquired the
fee title to NewMarket for a purchase price of $15,500,000 and paid Acquisition
Expenses of $75,888 in connection with the purchase, resulting in a total cash
investment of $15,575,888. During 1993, substantial structural improvements were
made at NewMarket to accommodate leases with CompUSA to anchor the south end of
the center and Media Play to anchor the north end. Such improvements were funded
by cash flow from operations as well as capital contributions by the Partnership
and the Co-Venturer during 1993 and 1994. Since the Partnership was unable to
fund a portion of its required contribution, the Co-Venturer increased its
contribution by the amount of the Partnership's shortfall in exchange for an
increased ownership interest in the Joint Venture. During 1994, the Co-Venturer
contributed $155,059 of additional capital and during 1993, the Partnership and
Co-Venturer contributed $459,375 and $1,600,163 of additional capital,
respectively.
NewMarket is adjacent to the interchange of Sawmill Road and Interstate 270.
Sawmill Road is a heavily traveled retail corridor serving a relatively affluent
area. NewMarket contains 172,833 net rentable sq. ft. It is an enclosed
community shopping center, constructed of steel and masonry with decorative
split concrete block and metal banding around the exterior walls.
Columbus's total retail market reported a 9% vacancy rate. Almost all the
vacancy is in small shop space. NewMarket's vacancy rate was approximately 7% at
December 31, 1995. Rental rates in NewMarket's northwest submarket are
$8.50-$14.00 per sq. ft. before concessions. NewMarket's rates before
concessions are $7.50-$13.00 per sq. ft.
The Columbus retail market is currently experiencing a boom of activity
which is a direct result of the city's continued population growth and resulting
economic expansion. With this continued growth the city has attracted numerous
new retailers to the market. Since 1990 five retail centers totaling
approximately 515,000 sq. ft. have been added. This does not include free
standing retail buildings known as "big box" or "power center" stores which
account for over 800,000 sq. ft. Expansion of the power centers has continued in
the Columbus area as well as nationwide. Fifteen new big box stores have been
added in Columbus within the past two years and another dozen are expected to
open by the end of 1996. Along with the predominance of the power center stores,
typical shopping centers with anchor stores and large amounts of satellite space
are becoming less prevalent in the current market. Accordingly, there is much
competition for smaller retail tenants and this competition should continue
going forward.

from $750-$1,000.
Generally, lease provisions require tenants to pay their pro-rata share of
common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance in addition to their
annual base rent.
COMPETITION
The real estate business is highly competitive, and the Properties acquired
by the Joint Ventures have active competition from similar properties in their
respective vicinities. Additionally, the Partnership may also experience
competition for potential buyers at such time as it seeks to sell any of the
Properties.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
For a discussion of the Lawsuit, see "Litigation and Proposed Settlement."
APPRAISALS OF THE PROPERTIES
The Partnership has received appraisals of the Properties from the
Appraisers. Property Counselors, Inc. ("Counselors") rendered an appraisal of
Eden Woods as of December 31, 1995; U.S. Realty Consultants, Inc. ("U.S.
Realty") rendered an appraisal of NewMarket as of December 15, 1995; and a third
appraiser has rendered an appraisal of Cornell as of December 15, 1995.
Executive summaries of the appraisal reports are attached hereto as Exhibit A.
The full appraisal reports are available for inspection and copying at the
principal offices of the Partnership during regular business hours by any
interested Limited Partner or his, her or its representative who has been so
designated in writing.
Each of the Appraisers is a recognized, independent real estate firm with
extensive valuation experience. The Partnership decided to retain each of the
Appraisers because of the Appraiser's valuation experience in the given market.
In addition, during the past two years, Counselors and U.S. Realty have rendered
appraisals to Greystone with respect to various properties. The General Partners
and their affiliates have no contract, agreement or understanding with any of
the Appraisers regarding any future engagement.
Each appraisal addressed the market value of the fee simple interest in the
subject Property as a going concern. The Appraisers did not appraise the value
of other assets or liabilities of the Joint Ventures or the Partnership. Among
other assumptions, each Appraiser assumed that the highest and best use of the
subject Property is its current use. After considering numerous factors, each of
the
27

PRELIMINARY COPY
Appraisers rendered a valuation of the subject Property as of the date specified
above. The following table sets forth the Appraisers' valuations and the
Partnership's Joint Venture share of such valuations.

An appraisal is an estimate or opinion of value and cannot be relied upon as
a precise measure of value or worth. The amount that may be realized upon sale
of a Property may be more or less than its appraised value. None of the
Appraisers solicited any offers or inquiries with respect to the Properties from
potential purchasers, and therefore, the appraisals should not be construed to
suggest that a buyer was, in fact, available or if one were available, that it
would be willing to pay the appraised value. Accordingly, no assurance can be
given as to the value that may be obtained upon sale of the Properties.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Partnership's cash balance of $828,769 at March 31, 1996 includes
$110,211 to pay accrued liabilities, and cash generated from operations of the
Joint Ventures and distributed to the Partnership.
The Partnership derives its revenues primarily from its equity interests in
the Joint Ventures. Accordingly, the Partnership's share of cash flow from the
Joint Ventures depends on the performance of the Properties. Cash flow generated
by the Properties is first to be used to fund tenant improvements, leasing
commissions and capital improvements, if any. Any remaining cash flow is then
distributed to the Co-Venturers. The Partnership also received interest income
on the balance in its restricted cash account and short-term investments.
The Partnership's only operating costs were general and administrative
expenses which primarily include audit and tax return preparation fees, printing
and postage costs for quarterly and annual reports, and reimbursements to the
General Partners for reimbursable expenses incurred in accordance with the
Partnership Agreement. Such general and administrative expenses, which are not
expected to fluctuate materially, totaled $50,600 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.
As of February 3, 1996 the space previously leased to Lawrence Jewelry
consisting of an entire building has become available. Portions of this space
have already been leased to new tenants and the Co-Venturers have determined
that an estimated $250,000 in tenant improvements will be necessary.
Accordingly, Eden Woods' cash flow from operations has been utilized to fund
such improvements. In addition, cash flow in excess of charges for tenant
improvements has been held in excrow to pay the first half of the year's
property taxes totaling $221,124 which are due on May 15, 1996. There are no
other material capital commitments.
Cornell and NewMarket are expected to generate adequate cash flow to fund
their own operations. During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, Cornell and
NewMarket distributed $116,734 and $44,258 to the Partnership, respectively. As
discussed above, cash flow for the first quarter at Eden Woods was used to fund
the new tenant improvements, as well as property taxes.
The Partnership expects sufficient cash flow to be generated from its Joint
Venture investments to meet its current and future operating requirements.
However, if the Partnership does not have sufficient funds to meet its future
operating requirements, the General Partners, at their sole discretion, may
borrow money on behalf of the Partnership from unaffiliated third parties
subject to the terms of the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership may also
utilize its restricted cash to meet such future operating requirements. If such
a circumstance were to occur, the Partnership would thereafter seek to replenish
its restricted cash.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
The decrease in the Partnership's net income for the quarter ended March 31,
1996 as compared to the corresponding period in 1995 is the result of a decrease
in interest income and a slight increase in general and administrative expenses.
Cornell's net income increased by $11,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1996 compared to the corresponding 1995 period primarily due to an increase
in tenant reimbursements for improvements. Eden Woods' net income increased by
approximately $4,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 primarily due to
a decrease in amortization and depreciation expense on prepaid leasing
commissions and tenant improvements, respectively. NewMarket's net income
decreased by approximately $16,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 as
compared to the corresponding period in 1995 due primarily to a decline in
rental rates as well as a 5% decrease in occupancy. The retail market in which
NewMarket is located continues to experience rapid development including the

addition of new superstores. This development has led to increased price
competition among the retail segment. Recognizing that high occupancy is vital
to the success of a mall, management has responded to this increased price
competition by lowering rental rates so existing tenants do not vacate.
Occupancy at Cornell, Eden Woods, and NewMarket was 95%, 87%, and 91%,
respectively, as of March 31, 1996, as compared to 95%, 98%, and 96%,
respectively, as of March 31, 1995.
1995 COMPARED TO 1994
The Partnership's net income for the year ended December 31, 1995 decreased
by approximately $460,000 as compared to the prior year primarily as a result of
a decrease in equity in income from Joint Venture operations. Included in equity
in income from Joint Venture operations for the year ended December 31, 1994 was
approximately $361,000 of equity in income from Parklane, including
approximately $177,000 representing the Partnership's share of the gain on the
sale of Parklane on December 6, 1994. For a more detailed discussion of the
operations of each Property, see "Investments in Joint Ventures -- 1995" below.
Partially offsetting such decrease in equity in income from Joint Venture
operations was an increase in interest income of approximately $48,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year primarily due to
interest earned on the Partnership's share of the Parklane cash reserve account
and net sales proceeds from January 1, 1995 to February 15, 1995, when such cash
was distributed to investors.
In management's opinion, except for the proposed dissolution of the
Partnership as more fully discussed in Note 10 of the Notes to Financial
Statements, when adopted on January 1, 1996, Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" will not have a material adverse effect on
the Partnership's financial position or results of operations. In the event of
dispositon, the Partnership would record an adjustment to state its investments
in real estate and Joint Ventures at their then fair market value. Subsequent
increases and decreases in fair market value would be recorded currently in
earnings under the liquidation method of accounting.
The effects of inflation on the Partnership are immaterial.
INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES -- 1995
CORNELL PLAZA OFFICE BUILDING. Net operating income at Cornell decreased by
approximately $13,000, or 2%, for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared
to the prior year. Occupancy was 97% as of December 31, 1995. Occupancy as of
December 31, 1994 was 98%. Interest income at Cornell increased by approximately
$5,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year
primarily due to interest earned on the funds set aside for the new HVAC system
described below. Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately
$96,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year
primarily due to depreciation charges related to such HVAC system.
During 1995 one tenant, USA Mobile Communications, expanded its space by
3,119 sq. ft. This tenant executed a five year lease at $10.75 per sq. ft. for
the first three years and $11.50 thereafter.
Three tenants vacated the premises during 1995, however, the USA Mobile
expansion absorbed most of such vacated space. Galbreath, Cornell's managing and
leasing agent, and Orion International vacated the space which USA Mobile
leased. Additionally, Talent Tree did not renew its lease of 1,325 sq. ft.
Computer Associates will also be vacating its 9,000 sq. ft. before its lease
expires in March 1997. This tenant has informed management that it will continue
to make all payments in accordance with its lease. Additionally, Chrysler, a
current Cornell tenant, has expressed interest in expanding into the Computer
Associates space.
A new HVAC system was installed at Cornell due to the insufficient capacity
and outdated technology of the old system. Cornell's cash flow from operations
had been set aside to fund such improvement and distributions to Co-Venturers
were suspended at Cornell as of October 1994. The
31
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
new system was installed and operational as of April 1995. The total cost of the
new system was approximately $323,000, all of which was funded entirely from
Cornell's cash flow from operations. Accordingly, Cornell has since resumed
distributions to Co-Venturers.
EDEN WOODS BUSINESS CENTER. Net operating income at Eden Woods decreased by
approximately $138,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the
prior year. Such decrease is primarily due to revenues recognized by the
Property in 1994 representing the Sanborn early lease termination settlement.
Eden Woods' occupancy increased from 98% at December 31, 1994 to 100% at
December 31, 1995.
Approximately 35,000 additional sq. ft. was leased at Eden Woods during
1995. Three new tenants were added during the year. Trisen Systems Inc. executed
a 5 year lease for 10,132 sq. ft. vacated by Micro-Net in January, 1995 with a
base rent of $4.18 per sq. ft. the first year and $5.66, $6.31, $6.94, and $8.45
per sq. ft. the second through fifth years, respectively. Office Products of
Minnesota Inc. executed a 5 year lease for 20,086 sq. ft. formerly occupied by
Sanborn, with a base rent of $7.06 the first three years and $7.42 thereafter.
Wilson Learning Corp. signed a three year lease for 5,186 sq. ft. vacated by
Trimar in January, 1995, with a base rent of $7.05.
In addition to the new leases discussed above, one tenant, Netstar, expanded
its space by 3,043 sq. ft.
Lawrence Jewelry did not renew its lease for 42,500 sq. ft., which expired
on December 31, 1995, but instead extended its lease for one month and vacated
on January 31, 1996. One current tenant has agreed to expand into approximately
half of the Lawrence Jewelry space.
NEWMARKET SHOPPING CENTER. Net operating income at NewMarket increased by
approximately $86,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the
prior year partially as a result of a property tax refund of approximately
$52,000 received during 1995 resulting from a successful certiorari of 1994's
tax assessment. Also contributing to the increase in net operating income for
1995 is a decrease in repairs and maintenance expense of approximately $35,000
as compared to 1994. Minor parking lot and electrical repairs performed during
1994 comprise most of such difference. The occupancy rate decreased from 96% at
December 31, 1994 to 93% at December 31, 1995.
During 1995 two tenants did not renew their leases. Elbee Shoes vacated its
4,813 sq. ft. space. Additionally, Southwest Designs informed management of its
intention to vacate the mall by January 31, 1996. The adjacent tenant, S & K
Famous Brands, which currently leases 4,030 sq. ft., intends to expand into such
vacated space.
As previously reported, in 1994 Famous Footwear expanded its space and
extended its lease. Their renovated space opened for business in June 1995.
Leases aggregating approximately 23,000 sq. ft., or 13% of NewMarket's net
rentable area, are due to expire during 1996. Included in such amount are three
month-to-month tenants: We're For Kids, Family Theatre Playhouse, and Shoe
Sensation, currently occupying 6,998 sq. ft., 8,000 sq. ft and 6,100 sq. ft.,
respectively.
Management plans for 1996 include retention of tenants whose leases expire
in 1996, including the month-to-month tenants discussed above, and attracting
one or two new shops that may act as "mini-anchors," although there can be no
assurances that management will be able to accomplish its plans.
1994 COMPARED TO 1993
The increase in the Partnership's net income for the year ended December 31,
1994 from the year ended December 31, 1993 is primarily a result of an increase
in equity in income from Joint Venture operations. Net operating income for each
of the Joint Ventures increased by an aggregate 34% for the year ended December
31, 1994 over the corresponding period in 1993. See "Investments in Joint
Ventures -- 1994" below for a more detailed discussion of the operations of each
Property. In addition,
32
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $7,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the corresponding period in 1993,
resulting from a reduction in printing and postage costs for the year ended
December 31, 1994 as well as an over accrual of professional fees of
approximately $18,000 for the year ended December 31, 1993. The Partnership had
accrued for certain professional fees in 1993 that were subsequently paid for by
the Joint Ventures. Accordingly, the Partnership reversed the accrual for those
expenses in 1994.
The effects of inflation on the Partnership were immaterial.
INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES -- 1994
CORNELL PLAZA OFFICE BUILDING. Net operating income at Cornell increased by
approximately $170,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1993. Occupancy increased from 92% at December 31, 1993
to 98% at December 31, 1994. Additionally, the Partnership received a real
estate tax refund of approximately $84,000 resulting from a successful appeal of
the 1991 and 1992 tax assessments.
During 1994, an additional 5,458 sq. ft. of space was leased at Cornell. Two
new tenants were added, while seven existing tenants expanded. JBA International
and the Galbreath Company executed new leases aggregating 2,614 sq. ft. JBA
International leased 1,614 sq. ft. for three years at $10.00 per sq. ft.
Galbreath executed a month-to-month lease for 1,000 sq. ft. at $5.00 per sq. ft.
Expansions took place during 1994 for Cincinnati Asset Management, Spencer and
Spencer, Citizens Mortgage, USA Mobile Communications, Inacomp, Zaring Homes and
Eaton ranging from 389 sq. ft. to 1,603 sq. ft. with average rental rates
ranging from $9.00 per sq. ft. to $12.95 per sq. ft. In addition, Hitachi
renewed its lease for 5,891 sq. ft. for four years at an average rental rate of
$9.75 per sq. ft.
As expected, Phoenix Mutual Insurance ("Phoenix Mutual") vacated 3,261 sq.
ft. during 1994 as a result of the merger between Phoenix Mutual and Home Life
Insurance.
Besides the Galbreath month-to-month tenancy, the only lease expiring during
1995 was Talent Tree's for 1,325 sq. ft.
As of December 31, 1994, the property was 98% occupied, and management was
carefully evaluating any expansion requests in order to achieve maximum rents.
As discussed above, a new HVAC system was installed at Cornell during 1995
due to the insufficient capacity and outdated technology of the old system. As
of December 31, 1994, cash in the amount of $149,956 had been set aside for such
expenditure.
PARKLANE OFFICE BUILDING. On December 6, 1994, pursuant to a Purchase and
Sale Agreement dated October 7, 1994, Joint Venture B sold Parklane, along with
the underlying land and related improvements to Principal Mutual Life Insurance
Company for $5,600,000 which represents approximately 127% of its appraised
value of $4,400,000 as of November 30, 1993. It was determined that under
current market conditions and considering the departure of South Central Bell,
whose 69,302 sq. ft. occupancy comprises approximately 64% of Parklane's net
rentable space, the sale of Parklane would provide more value than utilizing the
cash reserve to re-tenant the building. At the time of the sale the cash reserve
balance was $1,519,570. The Partnership distributed to investors its share of
the net proceeds from the sale, along with its share of the cash reserve, on
February 15, 1995.
For the year ended December 31, 1994, Parklane had a decrease in net
operating income of approximately $48,000 over the corresponding period in 1993
due to the reduction in rental income as a result of the sale of Parklane on
December 6, 1994. The Joint Venture recognized a gain on the sale of Parklane of
$294,687, based on the carrying value of the land, the building and the related
improvements.
33
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
In addition, Parklane had an increase in interest income of approximately
$20,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the corresponding
period in 1993, due to the growth of the cash reserve account throughout 1994.
The cash reserve balance was $1,143,225 at December 31, 1993 and $1,519,570 at
December 6, 1994, the date of the sale of Parklane described above.
EDEN WOODS BUSINESS CENTER. Net operating income at Eden Woods increased by
approximately $249,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1993. Eden Woods' occupancy increased from 92% at
December 31, 1993 to 98% at December 31, 1994. Additionally, a tax reassessment
of Eden Woods resulted in a reduction of real estate taxes of approximately
$85,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the year ended
December 31, 1993.
Approximately 11,000 additional sq. ft. was leased at Eden Woods during
1994. Five new tenants were added during the year. Proline Audio executed a five
year lease for 4,103 sq. ft. at an average rental rate of $5.90 per sq. ft. A
five year lease was executed with Heidelberg USA for 5,441 sq. ft. at an average
rental rate of $6.55 per sq. ft. Original Marketing executed a five year lease
for 2,519 sq. ft. at an average rental rate of $7.00 per sq. ft. Business
Machine Sales executed a seven year lease for 7,162 sq. ft. at an average rental
rate of $7.19 per sq. ft. Woodroast Systems Inc. executed a five year lease for
5,035 sq. ft. at an average rental rate of $6.24 per sq. ft.
In addition, Datatrak (formerly Jobtrak) renewed the lease on its 8,123 sq.
ft. for five years at an average rental rate of $6.47 per sq. ft. Edentec also
elected to renew its lease for 15,388 sq. ft. for five years at an average
rental rate of $7.17 per sq. ft.
Fargo-Datamax and Datatrend vacated 12,197 sq. ft. and 4,103 sq. ft.,
respectively, during 1994. Trimar, which occupied 5,186 sq. ft., vacated in
January 1995. This space was subsequently leased to Wilson Learning Corporation
for three years at $7.05 per sq. ft.
NEWMARKET SHOPPING CENTER. Net operating income at NewMarket increased by
approximately $384,000 for the year ended December 31, 1994 as compared to the
year ended December 31, 1993, as a result of the addition of CompUSA and Media
Play in November 1993. Media Play and CompUSA comprised approximately 47% of
total occupancy of NewMarket at December 31, 1994. During 1994, a full year of
rental revenue was recognized from these tenants. The occupancy rate at December
31, 1994 and 1993 remained stable at 96%.
Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 1994
increased by approximately $133,000 as compared to the year ended December 31,
1993 as a result of depreciation expense related to the improvements for the two
anchor tenants.
Approximately 5,000 additional sq. ft. was leased at NewMarket during 1994.
Southwest Design executed a five year lease for 3,202 sq. ft. at an average
rental rate of $8.50 per sq. ft. Candlesticks executed a five year lease for
1,843 sq. ft. at an average rental rate of $8.56 per sq. ft.
Two tenants, Linens N Things and Mr. Bulky's, vacated NewMarket during 1994.
Linens N Things had occupied 7,200 sq. ft. Mr. Bulky's exercised a termination
option in its lease and vacated its 1,843 sq. ft. In accordance with such
termination option agreement, NewMarket received approximately $10,000 for
reimbursement of certain improvements and leasing commissions paid with regard
to the Mr. Bulky's lease.
Hit or Miss renewed its lease for 3,686 sq. ft. for five years at $11.00 per
sq. ft. Dress Barn also renewed its lease for 7,427 sq. ft. for five years at
$12.50 per sq. ft.
Famous Footware expanded by 3,982 sq. ft. from 5,418 sq. ft. to 9,400 sq.
ft. and extended its lease on the combined space for five years at $8.50 per sq.
ft.
As of December 31, 1994, leases aggregating approximately 40,275 sq. ft., or
23% of NewMarket's net rentable area, were due to expire during 1995. Included
in the aforementioned are two month-to-month tenants: We're For Kids and Family
Theatre Playhouse, who occupy 6,998 sq. ft. and 8,000 sq.

ft., respectively. El-Bee Shoe Outlet and Shoe Sensation, occupying 4,813 sq.
ft. and 6,100 sq. ft., respectively, which had leases expiring during the first
quarter of 1995, renewed on a month-to-month basis.
As of December 31, 1994, management was also negotiating lease renewals with
three other tenants with large spaces expiring during 1995. These tenants: S&K
Famous Brands, The Casual Male and Dress Barn occupied 4,030 sq. ft., 2,719 sq.
ft. and 7,427 sq. ft. respectively, at December 31, 1994.
1993 COMPARED TO 1992
The Partnership had net income of $158,466 for the year ended December 31,
1993 as compared to its net loss of $4,856,242 for the year ended December 31,
1992. The 1992 net loss resulted from the write-down of the carrying values of
Parklane and NewMarket of $9,945,784 in the aggregate. The Partnership's share
of such write-downs totaled $5,085,409. The Partnership's 1992 net income,
exclusive of the write-downs, was $416,467, representing $398,953 of operating
income from Joint Ventures and $17,514 of interest income.
The Partnership's 1993 equity in income from Joint Ventures (prior to the
effect of the write-downs) declined by approximately 22% from 1992. Net
operating income at Cornell and Parklane increased while Eden Woods and
NewMarket experienced a decline. See Investments in Joint Ventures -- 1993 below
for a more detailed discussion of the operations of each Property. In addition,
the Partnership's general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately
7% as a result of a reduction in professional fees and printing and postage
costs.
The effects of inflation on the Partnership were immaterial.
INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES -- 1993
CORNELL PLAZA OFFICE BUILDING. Net operating income at Cornell increased
during 1993 primarily as a result of an increase in occupancy at the Property
and a decrease in real estate tax expense, the latter resulting from a
reassessment of the Property value. Occupancy at Cornell increased to 92% from
82% in 1992.
During 1993, an additional 9,821 sq. ft. of space was leased. Two new
tenants were added, while three existing tenants expanded. Keane, Inc. signed a
five year lease for 2,500 sq. ft. at $8.78 per sq. ft. Orion International
Consulting signed a four year lease for 1,587 sq. ft. at an average $8.06 per
sq. ft. RJR/Nabisco's Planters division renewed its lease and expanded by 608
sq. ft. Planters' new lease is for a three year term at $9.80 per sq. ft.
Heublein expanded its office by 2,053 sq. ft. and executed a new five year lease
at $8.94 per sq. ft. with annual increases equal to 50% of the change in the
Consumers Price Index. Zaring Homes Inc. expanded by 2,985 sq. ft., agreeing to
pay an average of $7.63 per sq. ft. for a 4.25 year term. Zaring Homes recently
went public and is now Cornell's second-largest tenant, with 11,351 sq. ft. In
addition, a renewal was effected with Southwestern Ohio Water Co. for 762 sq.
ft.
During 1993, Cornell offset some of the soft market conditions in the
Cincinnati market primarily with internal growth from existing tenants and
relatively few lease expirations. Although Cornell enjoyed a 92% occupancy rate
at the end of 1993, management anticipated rental rates might need to be reduced
in order to continue to compete effectively and thereby retain tenants and lease
the remaining 6,717 vacant sq. ft.
Cornell had increased depreciation/amortization expense for 1993 relating to
the tenant improvement and leasing commissions incurred as a result of the
aforementioned leasing activity.
PARKLANE OFFICE BUILDING. Net operating income at Parklane increased for
the year ended December 31, 1993, as a result of an increase in occupancy at the
Property. Occupancy at Parklane increased from 87% to 96% during 1993.
35
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
During 1993, two new leases were signed at Park Lane and one existing tenant
expanded its space. Centex Real Estate Corp. signed a five year lease for 6,097
sq. ft. at an average rental rate of $11.59 per sq. ft. Wright & Company signed
a three year lease for 1,230 sq. ft. at $12.76 per sq. ft. Tanya Tucker Inc.
expanded by 1,178 sq. ft. and signed a new one year lease at $11.00 per sq. ft.
During 1992, the carrying value of Parklane was written down to reflect its
appraised value at that time. As a result, depreciation expense on the building
decreased during 1993.
EDEN WOODS BUSINESS CENTER. Net operating income at Eden Woods decreased
during 1993. Although occupancy increased, rental rates were slightly lower and
concessions were being offered. Occupancy at Eden Woods increased from 89% to
92% in 1993 as a result of a successful leasing program. In addition, Eden Woods
experienced an increase in its 1993 real estate tax assessment.
In January of 1993, a five year lease was executed with Seaberg Medical for
2,478 sq. ft. at $6.88 per sq. ft. for the first three years and $7.38 per sq.
ft. for the remainder of the term. Costs associated with this lease include rent
abatements of $7,814, leasing commissions of $5,774 and tenant improvements of
$18,972.
During June of 1993, a three year lease was executed with Netstar for 16,810
sq. ft. at $5.10 per sq. ft. for the first year, $5.70 per sq. ft. for the
second year and $6.29 per sq. ft. for the third year. Costs associated with this
lease include leasing commissions of $25,564 and tenant improvements of $30,875.
EdenTec renewed its lease for a term of three years, to commence in February
1994, at $6.96 per sq. ft. for the first year and $7.27 per sq. ft. for the
remainder of the term. Costs associated with this renewal include rent
abatements of $17,850, leasing commissions of $18,559 and tenant improvements of
$12,000.
NEWMARKET SHOPPING CENTER. Net operating income at NewMarket decreased
during 1993. Prior to the addition of two new anchor tenants in November 1993,
occupancy at NewMarket had declined as several tenants vacated the Property.
Upon the addition of the two anchor tenants, occupancy at NewMarket increased
from 77% to 96% during 1993. Additionally, NewMarket received a real estate tax
refund during 1993 of $97,439 resulting from a successful certiorari of 1991's
tax assessment.
As previously discussed, NewMarket added two anchor tenants during 1993.
Both tenants opened for business in November 1993 and their presence increased
traffic at the center.
The total costs associated with the admission of the two new anchor tenants
and the related reconfiguration of NewMarket totaled $2,610,758. As of December
31, 1993, $2,455,699 had been expended, of which, $396,161 was funded from
property operations and $459,375 and $1,600,163 were contributed by the
Partnership and the Co-Venturer, respectively. The Partnership and the Co-
Venturer are required to make capital contributions in accordance with their
respective ownership interests. As of December 31, 1993, the Partnership's
required contribution was $969,836. Since the Partnership was unable to fund a
portion of its required contribution, the Co-Venturer increased its contribution
by the amount of the Partnership's shortfall in exchange for an increased
ownership interest in the Joint Venture. In addition, the remaining contribution
of $155,059 was funded by the Co-Venturer in January 1994.
In addition to the new anchor tenants, two new small shops were added during
1993. Galleria Leather and Luggage signed a five year lease for 3,000 sq. ft. at
an average rental rate of $5.80 per sq. ft. and Tuxedo Classics signed a five
year lease for 1,500 sq. ft. at an average rental rate of $8.40 per sq. ft.
Several tenants renewed and/or expanded in conjunction with the
reconfiguration, including The Kitchen Place, BK Sports, The Cookie Store, The
Raisin Rack, Backstage Studio, Fiesta Hair Salon, E.B. Brown Opticians and Art
on the Block.

During 1992, the carrying value of NewMarket was written down to reflect its
appraised value at that time. As a result, depreciation expense on the building
decreased during 1993.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
The following discussion briefly addresses what the General Partners
believe, based on the advice of tax counsel, Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld,
L.L.P., are likely to be the principal federal income tax consequences under
current law of a Limited Partner's receipt of a Cash Payment pursuant to the
Settlement and of the winding-up and liquidation of the Partnership. The federal
income tax discussion set forth below is a summary included for general
information purposes only and does not address all of the potential tax
consequences that might be relevant to a particular Limited Partner.
The United States federal income tax consequences to each Limited Partner,
including a Limited Partner that is a tax-exempt entity (such as a charitable or
other tax-exempt organization, a pension, profit sharing or stock bonus plan, or
a Keogh plan, IRA or other employee benefit plan) (a "Tax-Exempt Limited
Partner"), of the receipt of a Cash Payment pursuant to the Settlement and of
the winding up and liquidation of the Partnership will vary depending on the
Limited Partner's particular circumstances. In addition, the views of the
General Partners and tax counsel described below are not binding on the Internal
Revenue Service (the "IRS") or the courts. It is possible that the IRS could
take a different position regarding the federal income tax consequences
described below and that a court would sustain the IRS's position, in which case
a Limited Partner may realize different tax consequences. Accordingly, each
Limited Partner is strongly urged to consult his, her or its own tax adviser
with respect to the specific tax consequences of its receipt of a Cash Payment
pursuant to the Settlement and of the winding-up and liquidation of the
Partnership, including the effect and applicability of federal, state, local and
foreign tax laws.
CASH PAYMENT
REFUND. The Refund should be treated for federal income tax purposes as a
return of capital and should be applied against and reduce a Settling Limited
Partner's adjusted tax basis in his, her or its Units. To the extent, if any,
that the Refund received by a Settling Limited Partner exceeds his, her or its
adjusted tax basis in his, her or its Units, such excess will constitute taxable
income to such Settling Limited Partner, which may be ordinary income.
LIQUIDATION ADVANCE. A Settling Limited Partner generally should not
recognize income on his, her or its receipt of the Liquidation Advance. If the
Liquidation Advance received by a Settling Limited Partner ultimately exceeds
the Liquidating Distribution allocable to such Settling Limited Partner (see
"Winding Up and Liquidation of the Partnership", below), such excess generally
should be treated for federal income tax purposes in the same manner as a Refund
received at the time of the liquidation of the Partnership.
ENHANCEMENT. The Enhancement should be treated in the same manner as the
Refund.
SPECIAL RULES FOR TAX-EXEMPT LIMITED PARTNERS. A Tax-Exempt Limited Partner
who participates in the Settlement generally should not recognize unrelated
business taxable income as a result of its receipt of the Refund or Enhancement.
However, if such a Tax-Exempt Limited Partner has either (i) incurred
"acquisition indebtedness" within the meaning of the Code with respect to its
Units or (ii) utilized deductions (if any) generated by the Partnership against
unrelated business taxable income, then such Limited Partner may recognize
unrelated business taxable income to the extent (if any) the Refund or
Enhancement exceeds its adjusted tax basis in its Units.
The General Partners and tax counsel believe that property acquired with the
proceeds of the Liquidation Advance should not be treated as "debt-financed
property" within the meaning of the Code even though it is expected that NYLIFE
Realty will recoup all or part of the Liquidation Advance from Liquidating
Distributions that would otherwise be paid to the Settling Limited Partner.
However, there is no clear legal authority on the treatment of payments like the
Liquidation Advance for such purposes and it is possible that the IRS could take
a different view.

EACH TAX-EXEMPT LIMITED PARTNER IS PARTICULARLY URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX
ADVISER WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE RECEIPT OF THE CASH PAYMENT.
WINDING UP AND LIQUIDATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP
In general, in computing his, her or its federal income tax liability for
his, her or its tax year in which the assets of the Partnership are sold, each
Limited Partner will be required to take into account his, her or its allocable
share of any gain or loss from the sale of the Partnership's real property. Any
gain and the entire amount of any loss reportable by a Limited Partner from the
disposition by the Partnership of real property should generally be treated as
"section 1231" gain or loss.
A Limited Partner also will be required to report gain or loss from the
Partnership's sale of tangible personal property used its trade or business in
an amount equal to his, her or its allocable share of the gain or loss realized
by the Partnership. Any gain from the sale of tangible personal property will be
treated as ordinary income (and in the case of a Tax-Exempt Limited Partner,
unrelated business taxable income if such Limited Partner utilized deductions
(if any) generated by the Partnership against unrelated business taxable income)
to the extent of depreciation deductions previously allowed with respect to such
property, and any excess gain and the entire amount of any loss will be treated
as "section 1231" gain or loss. It is anticipated that the gain treated as
ordinary income should generally be allocated solely to the Limited Partners
other than Tax-Exempt Limited Partners.
Generally, section 1231 gains or losses from all sources are required to be
netted on the Limited Partner's tax return. Any net section 1231 gain is treated
as long-term capital gain, and any net section 1231 loss is treated as an
ordinary loss.
A Limited Partner may deduct losses allocated by the Partnership only to the
extent of his, her or its adjusted tax basis in his, her or its Units. Because
the Refund paid to a Limited Partner will reduce his, her or its adjusted tax
basis in his, her or its Units, a Limited Partner who receives a Refund may not
be entitled to deduct the full amount of his, her or its share of any losses
realized by the Partnership.
Upon the liquidation of the Partnership and the distribution of sale
proceeds, a Limited Partner could, depending on his, her or its personal tax
situation, recognize additional gain or loss, to the extent that the sum of the
cash received (and in the case of a Settling Limited Partner any amounts treated
as received and used to repay the Liquidation Advance) and the reduction in his,
her or its share of Partnership non-recourse liabilities (if any) is greater or
less than such Limited Partner's adjusted tax basis of his, her or its Units.
For this purpose, the Limited Partner's adjusted tax basis in his, her or its
Units is increased by his, her or its share of any gain and reduced by such
Limited Partner's share of any loss recognized from the sale of Partnership
assets (as well as such Limited Partner's receipt of a Refund or Enhancement, as
described above).
As described more fully under the heading "The Proposal and the Reasons for
the Proposal -- Effect of Approval of the Proposal and the Settlement," all or
part of the Liquidating Distribution otherwise payable to any Limited Partner
who has received a Liquidation Advance will be paid to NYLIFE Realty as a
repayment of the Liquidation Advance. Although the issue is not free from doubt,
the General Partners believe that any Limited Partner who has received a
Liquidation Advance will be treated for federal income tax purposes as having
received from the Partnership his, her or its full allocable share of the
Liquidating Distribution, and, to the extent such amount is paid to NYLIFE
Realty, to have applied such proceeds to repay the Liquidation Advance. The
General Partners intend that the Partnership's annual information return will be
prepared in a manner consistent with such treatment.
Any additional gain or loss recognized by a Limited Partner on the
liquidation of the Partnership generally will be treated as capital gain or
loss.
38
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
Any loss reportable by a Limited Partner as a result of the transactions
contemplated herein, and any suspended passive activity losses from prior years
that are attributable to the Partnership, should generally be deductible in the
year of sale without regard to the passive activity loss limitations. Any net
income or gain reportable by a Limited Partner as a result of the transactions
contemplated herein should generally be considered "passive activity" income
that can be offset against passive activity losses from other sources.
A Tax-Exempt Limited Partner may have unrelated business taxable income as a
result of the winding up and liquidation of the Partnership if it has incurred
"acquisition indebtedness" within the meaning of the Code with respect to its
Units.
EACH LIMITED PARTNER IS STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT ITS TAX ADVISER WITH
RESPECT TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE RECEIPT OF THE CASH PAYMENT AND OF THE
WINDING UP AND LIQUIDATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP ON THE LIMITED PARTNER'S
PARTICULAR TAX SITUATION.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL
OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
There is no individual known by the General Partners to be the beneficial
owner of more than five percent of the outstanding Units. The Partnership's
records indicate that no director or officer of NYLIFE Realty or CNP is a
beneficial owner of any of the outstanding Units. Each of the General Partners
owns a 0.5% general partner interest in the Limited Partnership. In addition,
NYLIFE Realty owns 2,016.4 Units.
INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN TRANSACTION
If the Proposal is approved by the Limited Partners, the Partnership will
proceed with the dissolution and termination of the Partnership pursuant to the
Partnership Agreement regardless of whether the settlement is approved by the
Court and becomes final, and any Partnership assets remaining after the sale of
the Partnership's properties and the discharge of all of its liabilities,
including debts to partners, will be distributed to the Limited Partners and
General Partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement regardless of
whether the Settlement is approved by the Court and becomes final. See "The
Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Liquidating Distributions." In addition
to any Liquidating Distribution NYLIFE will receive as a result of its general
partner interest, NYLIFE Realty will receive a percentage of the Liquidating
Distributions to Limited Partners corresponding to the number of Units owned by
it.
If the Limited Partners approve the Proposal and the Court approves the
Settlement and the Settlement becomes final, NYLIFE Realty will pay a
Liquidation Advance to each Settling Limited Partner. The Liquidation Advance
will be non-interest bearing and repayable solely out of any Liquidating
Distribution payable by the Partnership to the Settling Limited Partner. Each
Settling Limited Partner will grant a security interest in favor of NYLIFE
Realty in his, her or its Units and Liquidating Distribution up to the amount of
such Settling Limited Partner's Liquidation Advance to secure the repayment of
such Liquidation Advance out of his, her or its Liquidating Distribution. No
Cash Payment will be made with respect to the Units owned by NYLIFE Realty.
The Proposal may give rise to certain conflicts of interest arising out of
the relationships among the Partnership, the General Partners and affiliates of
the General Partners. If the Proposal is approved by the Limited Partners and
the Settlement is approved by the Court and becomes final, the General Partners
and certain of their affiliates will be released from certain liabilities as
discussed in "Litigation and Proposed Settlement -- Release." New York Life, an
affiliate of the General Partners, is the Co-Venturer of each of the Joint
Ventures and will participate in the net proceeds from the sale of the
Properties in proportion to its interest in the Joint Ventures. Each Joint
Venture agreement provides that the consent of both the Partnership and the
Co-Venturer is required for the sale of the Property owned by the Joint Venture.
The Co-Venturer has informed the Partnership, however, that if
39
<PAGE>
PRELIMINARY COPY
the Proposal is approved, the Co-Venturer will consent to the terms of any sale
of the Property for cash if the terms are acceptable to the Partnership.
Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partners would be entitled to
a Subordinated Disposition Fee in connection with the sale of a Property if the
Limited Partners have received a specified return on their capital
contributions. The General Partnerships believe it is unlikely that the
specified return will be achieved upon sale of the Properties. As a condition to
receipt of a Liquidation Advance from NYLIFE Realty, each Settling Limited
Partner will grant a security interest in favor of NYLIFE Realty in his, her or
its Units and Liquidating Distribution up to the amount of such Settling Limited
Partner's Liquidation Advance to secure the repayment of the Liquidation Advance
out of such Settling Limited Partner's Liquidating Distribution. See "The
Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Material Advantages and Disadvantages
of the Proposal to the Partners -- Advantages to General Partners."
MARKET FOR UNITS AND RELATED MATTERS
There is no organized trading market for the Units. Units may be assigned
upon compliance with applicable laws and the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
As of the Record Date, the Partnership had 3,065 Limited Partners. Pursuant to a
preliminary injunction issued by the Court, Limited Partners who have not
excluded themselves from the Class have been enjoined from transferring their
Units except in certain specified circumstances. If the Proposal is approved by
the Limited Partners and the Settlement is approved by the Court and becomes
final, Settling Limited Partners will not be permitted to transfer their Units.
Settling Limited Partners will, however, receive the Cash Payment. See "The
Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Liquidity" and "Litigation and Proposed
Settlement -- The Hearing Order and the Settlement Hearing."
Information regarding cash distributions to the Limited Partners is included
under "Selected Financial Data."
VOTING PROCEDURES
Each Limited Partner shall be entitled to one vote or portion thereof for
each Unit or portion thereof owned of record by such Limited Partner on the
Record Date. Approval of the Proposal requires the affirmative consents of
Limited Partners holding a majority of the Units (a minimum of 1,416,963 Units)
outstanding on the Record Date. A duly executed consent card on which a consent,
disapproval or abstention is not indicated will be deemed a consent to the
Proposal, except that broker non-votes (Units held by a broker or nominee for
which a consent card is submitted but with respect to which such broker or
nominee expressly indicates that it does not have discretionary authority to
consent to the proposals) will be treated as negative votes. Abstentions also
will be treated effectively as negative votes.
This Definitive Solicitation Statement is accompanied by a separate consent
card. Consent cards should be completed, signed and returned promptly if by
United States mail to New York Life Limited Partnership Class Action
Administrator, P.O. Box 9224, Boston, MA 02205-8622, or if by hand delivery or
delivery service, to New York Life Limited Partnership Class Action
Administrator, c/o Boston Financial Data Services, 1250 Hancock Street, Quincy,
MA 02169. A self-addressed, prepaid envelope for return of the consent cards has
been included with this Definitive Solicitation Statement.
Only Limited Partners of record on the Record Date (May 14, 1996) will be
entitled to submit consent cards with respect to the Proposal. The consent
solicitation for the Partnership will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York time, on
June 25, 1996, unless extended by the General Partners (as extended from time to
time, the "Expiration Date"). The General Partners may extend the Expiration
Date in their sole discretion. The General Partners intend to extend the
Expiration Date until the earlier of the date on which a majority of the Limited
Partners have approved or disapproved of the Proposal or the Final Settlement
Date.
Any Limited Partner delivering a consent card pursuant to the Definitive
Solicitation Statement may revoke his, her or its consent, disapproval, or
abstention with respect to the Proposal at any time prior to the Expiration Date
by delivering written notice of such revocation to New York Life Limited
40

Partnership Class Action Administrator, P.O. Box 9224, Boston, MA 02205-8622, or
if by hand delivery or delivery service, to New York Life Limited Partnership
Class Action Administrator, c/o Boston Financial Data Services, 1250 Hancock
Street, Quincy, MA 02169. Such written notice must be received by NYLIFE Realty
prior to the Expiration Date.
The Partnership Agreement allows certain costs and expenses incurred by the
General Partners, including those in connection with the preparation and mailing
of the Solicitation Statement and all papers which accompany or supplement the
Solicitation Statement, to be charged to the Partnership. NYLIFE Realty,
however, has elected to pay all costs and expenses, including legal fees,
incurred in connection with the preparation, filing and distribution of this
Solicitation Statement and all accompanying or supplementary papers.
The Proprietary Partnerships have retained the services of King to solicit
the written consents of limited partners to the dissolution of such
partnerships. Additionally, BFDS has been retained by the General Partners,
certain of their affiliates and the Plaintiffs to act as the class action
administrator in connection with the Lawsuit. As such, BFDS may assist in the
solicitation of written consents. Solicitation of consents also may be
undertaken by the directors, officers, employees and agents of the General
Partners and New York Life. Solicitation may be made by mail, telephone,
telegraph, facsimile transmission or personal interview. The fees and expenses
of King and BFDS and the costs incurred by the General Partners in connection
with the solicitation of consents will be borne by NYLIFE Realty and certain of
its affiliates. The fees of King for the solicitation of consents on behalf of
all Proprietary Partnerships (including the Partnership) is estimated to be
$100,000, plus reimbursement for out-of-pocket costs and expenses. The fees of
BFDS for its services as class action administrator in connection with the
Lawsuit are estimated to be $2,500,000.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Partnership is subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange
Act and in accordance therewith, files reports, proxy statements and other
information with the Commission. Such reports, proxy statements and other
information filed by the Partnership may be inspected at, and, upon payment of

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners of NYLIFE Realty Income Partners I, L.P.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of NYLIFE Realty Income Partners
I, L.P. (a Delaware limited partnership) (the "Partnership") as of December 31,
1995 and 1994 and the related statements of operations, changes in partners'
capital and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the general
partner. 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 the
general partner, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
As further discussed in Note 11, in connection with the proposed settlement of
litigation involving NYLIFE Realty Inc., a co-general partner of the
Partnership, the general partners will solicit consents of the limited partners
for the dissolution of the Partnership. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result should the limited partners consent to
liquidate the Partnership.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December
31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

NYLIFE REALTY INCOME PARTNERS I, L.P.
(A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994
NOTE 1 -- ORGANIZATION
NYLIFE Realty Income Partners I, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Delaware
limited partnership formed on November 14, 1986. Its co-general partners are
NYLIFE Realty Inc. ("Realty") and CNP Realty Investments, Inc. ("CNP"),
(collectively, the "General Partners"). The Partnership was formed to enter into
a series of joint ventures (individually, a "Joint Venture", collectively, the
"Joint Ventures") with New York Life Insurance Company (the "Co-Venturer"), an
affiliate of Realty. Each Joint Venture acquired (on an unleveraged basis),
operates, holds for investment, and will ultimately sell, existing, income
producing, commercial properties (individually, a "Property", collectively, the
"Properties").
The Partnership is the managing partner of each Joint Venture, responsible
for management of the day-to-day operations and implementing the joint decisions
of the Joint Venture's partners.
The Partnership will continue until December 31, 2036, unless terminated
sooner in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement (the
"Partnership Agreement") (see Note 11). The Partnership did not commence active
operations until March 1987. The offering of units was terminated by the General
Partners on June 30, 1989.
Capitalized terms used in these Notes to Financial Statements, unless
otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings set forth in Section 2 of the
Partnership Agreement.
NOTE 2 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF REPORTING
The accompanying financial statements are prepared under generally accepted
accounting principles using the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly,
revenues are recognized as earned and expenses are recognized as incurred.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Highly liquid debt instruments (primarily consisting of commercial paper)
purchased with a maturity of three months or less are considered cash
equivalents.
RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash represents amounts required to be retained in the
Partnership which may be used to fund future operating requirements pursuant to
the Partnership Agreement.
INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE JOINT VENTURES
The Partnership accounts for its investments in real estate joint ventures
using the equity method of accounting. Equity in income (loss) from Joint
Venture operations is recognized as earned and cash distributions received are
accounted for as a reduction of the related investment (see Note 4).
The Partnership's investments in real estate joint ventures are carried at
the lower of equity method carrying amount or estimated net realizable value.
The Partnership periodically reviews its investments for declines in net
realizable values, to amounts below recorded balances based upon its

present investment strategies. Future changes in such investment strategies and
other circumstances may effect estimates of net realizable values and therefore
the carrying amount of investments (see Note 10).
INCOME TAXES
No provision for income taxes has been made in the financial statements
since these taxes are the responsibility of the individual partners rather than
the Partnership.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
year's presentation.
NOTE 3 -- THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
The Partnership Agreement, dated June 10, 1987, provides that net cash from
operations, as defined, for each fiscal year will be distributed on a quarterly
basis, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners until each
Limited Partner has received a 6% annual return. Any remaining net cash from
operations will first be distributed to the General Partners until the General
Partners have received an additional 9% of the aggregate net cash from
operations distributed to all partners. Thereafter, net cash from operations
will be distributed 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.
Net proceeds from sales of Properties shall be distributed first, 100% to
the Limited Partners until each Limited Partner has received an amount equal to
his capital contribution; second, 100% to the Limited Partners until each
Limited Partner has received aggregate distributions from all sources (other
than the proceeds previously referred to) equal to a 6% cumulative return;
third, after payment of the subordinated disposition fee to the General
Partners, if any, 100% to the Limited Partners until each Limited Partner has
received aggregate distributions from all sources (other than the proceeds first
mentioned) equal to a 10% cumulative return; and fourth, any remaining proceeds
will be distributed 85% to the Limited Partners and 15% to the General Partners.
NOTE 4 -- INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE JOINT VENTURES

Base rent in 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $2,703,146, $3,875,542 and $3,492,005
excluding escalations, respectively.
Generally, lease terms are for 3 to 5 years and allow for increases in
certain property operating expenses to be passed through to the tenants.
JOINT VENTURE A -- CORNELL
During the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, various leasing and
capital improvement costs were incurred as follows:

JOINT VENTURE B -- PARKLANE
On December 6, 1994 pursuant to a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated October
7, 1994, Joint Venture B sold Parklane, along with the underlying land and
related improvements, to Principal Mutual Life Insurance Company for $5,600,000
which represents approximately 127% of its appraised value of $4,400,000 at
November 30, 1993. It was determined that under current market conditions and
considering the departure of South Central Bell, whose 69,302 sq. ft. occupancy
comprises approximately 64% of Parklane's net rentable space, the sale of
Parklane would provide more value than utilizing the cash reserve to re-tenant
the building. At the time of the sale the cash reserve balance was $1,519,570.
During 1995 and 1994, the Partnership received distributions from Parklane of
$3,301,334 and $915,124, respectively. The Partnership distributed to investors
its share of the net proceeds from the sale, along with its share of the cash
reserve, in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership Agreement on
February 15, 1995.

JOINT VENTURE D -- NEWMARKET
During 1993, substantial structural improvements were made at NewMarket to
accommodate leases with CompUSA to anchor the south end of the center and Media
Play to anchor the north end. Such improvements were funded by cash flow from
operations as well as capital contributions by the Partnership and Co-Venturer
during 1993 and 1994. Since the Partnership was unable to fund a portion of its
required contribution in 1994, the Co-Venturer increased its contribution by the
amount of the Partnership's shortfall in exchange for an increased ownership
interest in the Joint Venture. During 1994, the Co-Venturer contributed $155,059
of additional capital and during 1993, the Partnership and the Co-Venturer
contributed $459,375 and $1,600,163, of additional capital, respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 various leasing and

apportioned pro-rata among the Partnership and the Co-Venturer in proportion to
their respective contributions (exclusive of the Partnership's contribution for
Acquisition Fees).

contributions. Net income or loss and cash distributions from operations for any

The following table reconciles net income for financial reporting purposes

ended 1995, 1994 and 1993. The differences are due primarily to i) differences
between the tax and financial statement basis of buildings and improvements,
(creating a loss on the sale of Parklane for tax reporting purposes and a gain
for financial reporting purposes in 1994), ii) depreciating real estate on a
straight-line basis for financial

NOTE 9 -- FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information
of financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the accompanying balance
sheets, for which it is practical to estimate that value. Management believes
that, due to the short term nature of cash equivalents, the carrying amounts
reported on the balance sheets approximate their fair value.
NOTE 10 -- ADOPTION OF NEWLY ISSUED PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of." This statement requires that long-lived assets to be
held and used by an entity be recognized as impaired whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable, and when impaired to record an impairment loss to state the asset
at its fair value. In addition, the statement requires that long-lived assets to
be disposed of be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less
cost to sell. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1995. In management's opinion, except for the proposed dissolution
of the Partnership as more fully discussed in Note 11, when adopted on January
1, 1996, Statement No. 121 will not have a material adverse effect on the
Partnership's financial position or results of operations.
In the event of dissolution, the Partnership would record an adjustment to
state its investments in real estate Joint Ventures at their then fair market
value. Subsequent increases and decreases in fair market value would be recorded
currently in earnings under the liquidation method of accounting.
NOTE 11 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Two class action lawsuits were filed against the Co-Venturer and certain
other affiliates of the General Partners in the District Court of Harris County,
Texas on January 11, 1996, styled GRIMSHAWE V. NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE CO., ET
AL. (No. 96-001188) and SHEA V. NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE CO., ET AL. (No.
96-001189) alleging misconduct in connection with the original sale of
investment units in

NOTE 11 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENT (CONTINUED)
various partnerships (the "Proprietary Partnerships"), including violation of
various federal and state laws and regulations and claims of continuing
fraudulent conduct. The plaintiffs have asked for compensatory damages for their
lost original investment, plus interest, costs (including attorneys fees),
punitive damages, disgorgement of any earnings, compensation and benefits
received by the defendants as a result of the alleged actions and other
unspecified relief to which plaintiffs may be entitled. These suits were amended
and refiled in a consolidated action in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of Florida (the "Court") on March 18, 1996. In the federal
action, the plaintiffs added Realty and CNP as defendants and included
allegations concerning the Partnership. The Partnership is not a defendant in
the litigation.
The defendants expressly deny any wrongdoing alleged in the complaint and
concede no liability or wrongdoing in connection with the sale of the Units or
the structure of the Proprietary Partnerships. Nevertheless, to reduce the
burden of protracted litigation, the defendants have entered into a Stipulation
of Settlement ("Settlement Agreement") with the plaintiffs because in their
opinion such Settlement would (i) provide substantial benefits to the limited
partners in a manner consistent with New York Life's position that it had
previously determined to wind up most of the Proprietary Partnerships, including
the Partnership, through orderly liquidation as the continuation of the business
no longer serves the intended objectives of either the limited partners or the
defendants and to offer the limited partners an enhancement to the liquidating
distribution they would otherwise receive and (ii) provide an opportunity to
wind up such partnerships on a schedule favorable to the limited partners and
resolve the issues raised by the lawsuit.
In connection with the proposed settlement (the "Settlement"), the General
Partners will solicit consents of the Limited Partners for the dissolution of
the Partnership.
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, any settling Limited Partners
will receive at least a complete return of their original investment, less
distributions received prior to the final settlement date, in exchange for a
release of any and all claims a Limited Partner may have against the defendants
in connection with the Proprietary Partnership, including the Partnership, and
all activities related to the dissolution and liquidation of such partnerships.
Preliminary approval of the Settlement Agreement was given by the Court on
March 19, 1996. The Settlement Agreement is further conditioned upon final
approval by the Court as well as certain other conditions and is subject to
certain rights of termination detailed in the consent solicitation material
being mailed to the Limited Partners.
If the necessary consents of Limited Partners for dissolution are obtained,
the Partnership will be dissolved even if all necessary approvals for the
Settlement Agreement are not obtained or the Settlement Agreement is otherwise
terminated. In general, upon the dissolution of the Partnership, negative tax
consequences may accrue to the partners. Recent appraisals (Note 4) indicate
that the fair market value of the Properties is less than their carrying
amounts. If the Properties are sold, proceeds from such sales may be less than
these carrying amounts or the recent appraisal amounts.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
should the Limited Partners vote to liquidate the Partnership.

NOTE 4 -- LEGAL PROCEEDINGS (CONTINUED)
various partnerships, including violation of various state laws and regulations
and claims of continuing fraudulent conduct. The plaintiffs have asked for
compensatory damages for their lost original investment, plus interest, costs
(including attorneys fees), punitive damages, disgorgement of any earnings,
compensation and benefits received by the defendants as a result of the alleged
actions and other unspecified relief to which plaintiffs may be entitled. These
suits were amended and refiled in a consolidated action in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the "Court") on March 18,
1996. In the federal action, the plaintiffs added Realty and CNP as defendants
and included allegations concerning the Partnership. The plaintiffs purport to
represent a class of all persons (the "Class") who purchased or otherwise
assumed rights and title to interests in certain limited partnerships, including
the Partnership, and other programs created, sponsored, marketed, sold, operated
or managed by the defendants (the "Proprietary Partnerships"). The Partnership
is not a defendant in the litigation.
The defendants expressly deny any wrongdoing alleged in the complaint and
concede no liability or wrongdoing in connection with the sale of the Units or
the structure of the Proprietary Partnerships. Nevertheless, to reduce the
burden of protracted litigation, the defendants have entered into a Stipulation
of Settlement ("Settlement Agreement") with the plaintiffs because in their
opinion such Settlement would (i) provide substantial benefits to the Class in a
manner consistent with New York Life's position that it had previously
determined to wind up most of the Proprietary Partnerships, including the
Partnership, through orderly liquidation as the continuation of the business no
longer serves the intended objectives of either the owners of interests in such
Proprietary Partnerships or the defendants and to offer the investors an
enhancement to the liquidating distribution they would otherwise receive and
(ii) provide an opportunity to wind up such partnerships on a schedule favorable
to the Class and resolve the issues raised by the lawsuit.
In connection with the proposed settlement (the "Settlement"), the General
Partners will solicit consents of the Limited Partners for the dissolution of
the Partnership.
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, any settling Limited Partners
will receive at least a complete return of their original investment, less
distributions received prior to the final settlement date, in exchange for a
release of any and all claims a Limited Partner may have against the defendants
in connection with the Proprietary Partnerships, including the Partnership, and
all activities related to the dissolution and liquidation of such partnerships.
Preliminary approval of the Settlement Agreement was given by the Court on
March 19, 1996. The Settlement Agreement is further conditioned upon final
approval by the Court as well as certain other conditions and is subject to
certain rights of termination detailed in the consent solicitation material
being mailed to the Limited Partners.
If the necessary consents of Limited Partners for dissolution are obtained,
the Partnership will be dissolved even if all necessary approvals for the
Settlement Agreement are not obtained or the Settlement Agreement is otherwise
terminated. In general, upon the dissolution of the Partnership, negative tax
consequences may accrue to the partners. Recent appraisals indicate that the
fair market value of the Properties is less than their carrying amounts. If the
Properties are sold, proceeds from such sales may be less than these carrying
amounts or the recent appraisal amounts.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
should the Limited Partners vote to liquidate the Partnership.

The following unaudited pro forma balance sheet as of March 31, 1996 is
based on the following assumptions and is not necessarily indicative of the
value which may be received upon liquidation. Although the proposed liquidation
of the Partnership has not occurred, the following pro forma balance sheet is
based on the following assumptions:
(1) All assets and liabilities, other than investments in real estate Joint
Ventures, approximate fair market value.
(2) Fair value of investments in real estate Joint Ventures is based on
appraisals performed on the Joint Venture Properties, less estimated costs
to sell, as of December 15, 1995 for Cornell and NewMarket and December 31,
1995 for Eden Woods. Management believes that no material changes to the
fair market value of the Joint Venture Properties have occurred between the
appraisal dates and March 31, 1996.

The following unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet as of March 31,
1996 is based on the following assumptions and is not necessarily indicative of
the value which may be received upon liquidation. Although the proposed
liquidation of the Joint Ventures has not occurred, the following pro forma

(1) All assets and liabilities, other than land, building, improvements and

(2) Fair value of land, buildings and improvements is based on appraisals
performed as of December 15, 1995 for Cornell and NewMarket and December

Management believes that no material changes have occurred between the
appraisal dates and March 31, 1996.
(3) The fair market value of deferred leasing costs is zero. These costs
have been incurred in conjunction with leasing of the Properties and have
no separate market value.

Realty Inc. and its subsidiary at December 31, 1995 and 1994 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. This financial statement is the
responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on this financial statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the

significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for the opinion expressed above.
As explained in Note 2, the Company has recorded a loss of $8,562,500 related to
an announced plan of liquidation offering unitholders of the Real Estate
Partnership and Mortgage Partnership full repayment of their total investment.

NYLIFE REALTY INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(AFFILIATES OF NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY)
NOTES TO STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION
DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
NYLIFE Realty Inc. ("NYLIFE Realty" or the "Company") is a wholly owned
subsidiary of NYLIFE Inc., which is a wholly owned subsidiary of New York Life
Insurance Company ("New York Life"). NYLIFE Realty was established to act as a
general partner in public and private real estate offerings. Additionally,
NYLIFE Realty is the recipient of certain fees and residual interests for
services rendered in connection with various public programs in which NYLIFE
Securities Inc. ("NYLIFE Securities"), a wholly owned subsidiary of NYLIFE Inc.,
acted as broker-dealer.
NYLIFE Realty and its subsidiary, CNP Realty Investments Inc. ("CNP"), are
co-general partners in a public real estate limited partnership, NYLIFE Realty
Income Partners I, L.P. (the "Real Estate Partnership"). The proceeds of the
offering were invested in commercial and industrial real estate properties in a
series of joint ventures (individually, a "Joint Venture," collectively, the
"Joint Ventures") with New York Life as the co-venturer.
In addition, NYLIFE Realty is the sole general partner of NYLIFE Government
Mortgage Plus Limited Partnership (the "Mortgage Partnership"), a publicly
offered limited partnership which has invested in federally co-insured mortgages
on multi-family residential properties issued in connection with the housing
programs of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development
("HUD") and Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA").
The Real Estate Partnership and the Mortgage Partnership are collectively
referred to as "the Partnerships".
2. PLAN OF LIQUIDATION
On April 1, 1996, in connection with the proposed settlement of the lawsuits
described below, New York Life announced that the general partners of the
Partnerships would be soliciting the consents of the Limited Partners for the
dissolution of the Partnerships. The costs of such liquidation and the
resolution of certain claims (including those relating to the lawsuit described
below) are to be allocated to the Company, as general partner of the
Partnerships. However, the Company's parent, NYLIFE Inc., has agreed to fund the
liability associated with the liquidation and the resolution of the claims.
In accounting for the plan of partnership liquidation and the resolution of
the claims, a loss of $8,562,500 and related tax benefit of $2,996,875 was
recognized by the Company. In recognition of the decision by the Company's
parent to fund the liability associated with the liquidation and the resolution
of the claims, $5,565,625, the amount of loss net of tax, was recorded as a
constructive capital contribution to the Company. The resulting payable and
deferred tax asset in connection with the plan of liquidation were recorded by
NYLIFE Inc.
The amounts recorded represent management's best estimate of the total costs
associated with the plan of liquidation and the resolution of the claims.
Two class action lawsuits were filed against the co-general partners and
certain other affiliates of the General Partners in the District Court of Harris
County, Texas on January 11, 1996, styled GRIMSHAWE V. NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE
CO., ET. AL. (No. 96-001188) and SHEA V. NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE CO., ET. AL.
(No. 96-001189). The suits were amended and refiled in a consolidated action in
the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the
"Court") on March 18, 1996. The suits allege misconduct in connection with the
original sale of investment units in various partnerships, including violation
of various federal and state laws and regulations and claims of continuing
fraudulent conduct. In the federal action, the plaintiffs added the Company as a
defendant and included allegations concerning the Partnerships. The plaintiffs
have asked for compensatory

damages for their lost original investment, plus interest, costs (including
attorneys fees), punitive damages, disgorgement of any earnings, compensation
and benefits received by the defendants as a result of the alleged actions and
other unspecified relief to which plaintiffs may be entitled. All of the
partnerships that are the subject of the lawsuit will be collectively referred
to as the "Proprietary Partnerships."
The defendants expressly deny any wrongdoing alleged in the complaint and
concede no liability or wrongdoing in connection with the sale of the units or
the structure of the Proprietary Partnerships. Nevertheless, to reduce the
burden of protracted litigation, the defendants have entered into a Stipulation
of Settlement ("Settlement Agreement") with the plaintiffs because in their
opinion such settlement would (i) provide substantial benefits to the limited

including the Real Estate Partnership, through orderly liquidation as the
continuation of the business no longer serves the intended objectives of either
the limited partners or the defendants and to offer the limited partners an
enhancement to the liquidating distribution they would otherwise receive and
(ii) provide an opportunity to wind up such partnerships on a schedule favorable
to the limited partners and resolve the issues raised by the lawsuit.
Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, settling limited partners will
receive at least an amount that, together with distributions received prior to
the final settlement date, will, at least, equal their original investment in
the partnership, in exchange for a release of any and all claims.
Notice of the Settlement Agreement was given to class members pursuant to an
order entered by the Court on March 19, 1996. The Settlement Agreement is
conditioned upon final approval by the Court as well as certain other conditions
and is subject to certain rights of termination detailed in the notice sent to
class members.
If the necessary consents of limited partners for dissolution are obtained,
the Partnership will be dissolved even if all necessary approvals for the
Settlement Agreement are not obtained or the Settlement Agreement is otherwise
terminated.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of a statement of financial position 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 statement of
financial position and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Certain reclassifications to the 1994 balances and presentation have been
made in order to conform with the 1995 presentation.
CONSOLIDATION AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NYLIFE Realty
and CNP. Intercompany transactions between NYLIFE Realty and CNP have been
eliminated in consolidation.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash equivalents are short-terms, highly liquid investments that are readily
convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three
months or less. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates
fair value.

Partnership. NYLIFE Realty may subcontract all or a portion of the asset
management services rendered as discussed in Note 7, "Related Parties."
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
NYLIFE Realty is entitled to certain reimbursements by the Real Estate
Partnership and the Mortgage Partnership for the actual cost to NYLIFE Realty of
goods and materials used for and by the Real Estate Partnership, the Mortgage
Partnership or any Joint Ventures, which are obtained from unaffiliated parties
and for any adminstrative services provided to the Partnerships by NYLIFE
Realty. During 1995, NYLIFE Realty received reimbursements of $100,000 from each
of the Partnerships. NYLIFE Realty incurred $63,933 and $228,026 of general and
administrative expenses in excess of such reimbursements relating to the Real
Estate and Mortgage Partnerships, respectively, for the years ended December 31,
1995 and 1994, respectively.

7. RELATED PARTIES
NYLIFE Realty is a party to a service agreement with New York Life, whereby
New York Life provides services to NYLIFE Realty, including office space, legal,
accounting, administrative, personnel and other services for which NYLIFE Realty
is billed. NYLIFE Realty is charged for these services based upon (a) actual
costs incurred, where they are separately identifiable, and (b) allocation of
costs incurred by New York Life developed through analyses of time spent on
NYLIFE Realty matters. Additionally, New York Life pays NYLIFE Realty's invoices
on behalf of NYLIFE Realty and is then reimbursed by NYLIFE Realty. The total
amounts billed under this agreement were $732,164 and $814,439 for the years
ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
NYLIFE Securities and certain other syndicated broker-dealers authorized by
NYLIFE Securities sold units of the various limited partnerships for which they
received commissions and fees of up to 8%. NYLIFE Securities and NYLIFE Realty
are affiliated under common control by NYLIFE Inc.
NYLIFE Realty is a party to an asset management agreement with the Mortgage
Finance Department of New York Life ("Mortgage Finance"), whereby Mortgage
Finance provides architectural and engineering and property management oversight
services and acquisition services relating to the Mortgage Partnership. Mortgage
Finance receives from NYLIFE Realty .04% and .10% of the value of the Total
Invested Assets as defined by the Partnership Agreement of the Mortgage
Partnership. Such fees are payable quarterly by NYLIFE Realty from its asset
management fee. During the year 1995 and 1994, $24,337 and $44,287,
respectively, was paid to Mortgage Finance for the aforementioned services.
NYLIFE Realty acts as paying agent for cash distributions by the
Partnerships. Upon receipt of cash from the Partnerships, NYLIFE Realty
disburses the cash to the investors on a quarterly basis. During 1995 and 1994,
$9,352,749 and $4,416,944, respectively, was received and disbursed. As of
December 31, 1995 and 1994, investor distribution checks of $65,816 and $71,408,
respectively, remained outstanding. Such amounts are included in accounts
payable and accrued liabilities in the financial statements.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
As general partner, NYLIFE Realty is liable for all obligations of the
Mortgage and Real Estate Partnerships if the assets of those Partnerships are
insufficient to meet their liabilities.
NYLIFE Realty guarantees (the "Guarantee") the full repayment of principal
with respect to any Participating Guaranteed Loans ("PGLs") made by the Mortgage
Partnership pursuant to its Partnership Agreement. In February 1990, the
Mortgage Partnership agreed to make a collateralized PGL in an amount up to
$600,000 in connection with the construction of Halcyon at Cross Creek (formerly
Cross Creek Apartments), a multi-family residential apartment complex in
Greenville, South Carolina. In December 1990, the Mortgage Partnership agreed to
make a collateralized PGL in an amount up to $1,595,800 in connection with the
construction of The Highlands (formerly Highland Oaks Apartments), a
multi-family residential apartment complex in Tampa, Florida. In May 1991, the
Mortgage Partnership agreed to make a collateralized PGL in an amount up to
$1,200,000 in connection with the construction of Signature Place, a
multi-family residential apartment complex in Hampton, Virginia. The
aforementioned PGL's are each collateralized by the individual ownership
interests in the borrower itself (constituting a second lien on such ownership
interests).
During 1995, the Mortgage Partnership received $2,463,060 with respect to
the sale of the Highlands PGL. Included in such amount were $1,095,800 of
principal, $210,798 of accrued interest, a prepayment fee of $324,000 and
$832,462 representing participation in the appreciation and cash

NOTES TO STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
generated by operations of The Highlands. This amount received by the Mortgage
Partnership exceeds the aggregate amount invested in PGLs of $1,495,900.
Therefore, NYLIFE Realty has satisfied its obligation with respect to the
Guarantee.
As of December 31, 1995, the Mortgage Partnership has funded the Halcyon at
Cross Creek and Signature Place PGL's in the amounts of $400,000 and $100,
respectively. The Mortgage Partnership has no further obligations to loan
additional funds under any of the aforementioned PGL agreements.
NYLIFE Realty is required to maintain a minimum net worth of $1,000,000
under the terms of the Mortgage and Real Estate Partnerships' partnership
agreements.

Re: Market Value Appraisal
Eden Woods Business
Center
Eden Prairie, Minnesota
Dear Mr. Bowers:
At your request we have completed a market value appraisal of the leased fee
interest in the office/ showroom building situated at the above captioned
location. We have thoroughly analyzed the market and the property in arriving at
our value estimate. The purpose of the following report is to outline the
reasoning and the important factors considered in arriving at our value
estimate. It contains a summary of the data gathered in our investigation and
describes in detail the analysis that resulted in our conclusions.
The subject property is comprised of three multi-tenant, office/showroom
facilities. The Eden Woods Business Center has three single-story
office/showroom buildings that have a combined total of 165,866 net rentable
square feet, which consists of 92,764 square feet of office space (56%) and
73,102 square feet of warehouse space (44%).
Our appraisal report conforms to the Uniform Standards of Professional
Appraisal Practice (USPAP). This report should only be used by sophisticated
users that have the opportunity to obtain a full understanding of the
assumptions underlying the analysis.
All factors considered, it is our opinion that the market value of the
property BASED ON THE ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THIS

NINE MILLION TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
$9,200,000
If you have any questions regarding our value estimate or analysis or
require any additional information please contact the undersigned. We appreciate
having the opportunity to be of service to you in this matter.
Respectfully submitted.

SUMMARY OF SALIENT FACTS
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
NAME AND ADDRESS: Eden Woods Business Center
10200-10300 Valley View Road
Eden Prairie, Minnesota
LOCATION: The subject property is located on the north
side of Valley View Road, west of Golden
Triangle Drive and east of Flying Cloud
Drive.
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION: The subject property is comprised of three
multi-tenant, office/showroom facilities. The
Eden Woods Business Center has three
single-story office/showroom buildings that
have a combined total of 165,866 net rentable
square feet, which consists of 92,764 square
feet of office space (56%) and 73,102 square
feet of warehouse space (44%). The site is
irregular in shape, contains 12.65 acres
(551,034 square feet), and has 901 feet of
frontage on Valley View Road. The site has
on-site parking for 512 cars.
MARKET ANALYSIS: The Twin Cities real estate market has
experienced a significant comeback over the
past 24 months, particularly in the
industrial segment, after a period of decline
in the early 1990's. In June of 1993 the
vacancy rates for the industrial market as a
whole, the Southwest market overall,
including bulk warehouse, office/ showroom
and office/warehouse were 18.44 percent,
15.90 percent, and 14.01 percent,
respectively. As of June 1995, these rates
had dramatically decreased to 8.14, 5.74 and
5.24 percent, respectively. Accompanying this
tightening of the market has come increased
net effective rental rates, decreased leasing
concessions and some new construction,
primarily in the southern suburbs. Asking
lease rates at the subject property are
currently $8.50 per square foot for finished
office space, and $4.00 per square foot for
warehouse space, with TI allowances in the
range of $10 to $15 per square foot of office
area. Based on our analysis of the subject
property and its submarket, we have concluded
that these asking rates are at market levels,
and that rental rates throughout this
submarket are on the upswing.
HIGHEST AND BEST USE: It is our opinion that the highest and best
use for the Eden Woods Business Center is for
its present use as an office/showroom
facility.
INCOME CAPITALIZATION METHODOLOGY: A Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis has
been prepared for the subject property based
on the leases, rent roll, and other data that
was provided to us. We used this information
as well as that
</TABLE>
A-4
<PAGE>
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
obtained from our market analysis to arrive
at a projected cash flow. Property income and
expenses have been projected over the next
ten years, a residual sale assumed at the end
of this period based on capitalizing year
eleven N.O.I., and all net income streams
were discounted and totaled to arrive at a
market valuation. In arriving at discount and
capitalization rates we considered the
comparable sales which are detailed in our
report, as well as published surveys. We also
analysed the subject property using a direct
capitalization approach. The following rates
were important to our analysis.
GOING IN CAPITALIZATION RATE 9.35%
DISCOUNT RATE: 12.00%
TERMINAL CAPITALIZATION RATE: 9.75%
GROWTH RATE RENTAL: 3.00%
GROWTH RATE EXPENSES: 3.00%
GROWTH RATE TAX EXPENSE: 3.00%
VALUE INDICATIONS:
LAND VALUE: $1,500,000
COST APPROACH: $9,800,000
SALES COMPARISON APPROACH: $9,100,000
INCOME CAPITALIZATION APPROACH: $9,200,000
FINAL VALUE ESTIMATE: $9,200,000
VALUE PER SQUARE FOOT: $55.47
DATE OF VALUE: December 31, 1995
INSPECTION DATE: December 4, 1995
MARKETABILITY CONSIDERATIONS: The market for suburban industrial and
office/ showroom in the Minneapolis/St. Paul
metropolitan market has improved dramatically
over the past two years. A sign of this is
that in 1994 alone, two REIT's purchased 54
industrial buildings totaling over 5.0
million square feet of leasable area. The
subject is situated in the Southwest
industrial market, which is generally
regarded as the most desirable in the
Minneapolis/St. Paul market. It is fully
occupied with some tenant turnover expected
in the near future. Given the quality of the
subject property, and the current market
overall, we would expect that if the property
were aggressively marketed that it could
reasonably be expected to sell within a six
to 12 month time frame.

results may well vary from the projections contained herein. The appraisers
do not warrant that these forecasts will occur. Projections may be affected
by circumstances beyond the current realm of knowledge or control of the
appraisers. The appraisers are not trying to forecast the future but rather
are attempting to replicate techniques utilized by market participants for
properties similar to the subject.
The Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") became effective January 26,
1992. We have not made a specific compliance survey and analysis of this
property to determine whether or not it is in conformity with the various
detailed requirements of the ADA. It is possible that a compliance survey of the
property, together with a detailed analysis of the requirements for the ADA,
could reveal that the property is not in compliance with one or more of the
requirements of the Act. If so, this fact could have a negative effect upon the
value of the property. Since we have no direct evidence relating to this issue,
we did not consider possible non-compliance with the requirements of the ADA in
estimating the value of the property.

RE: NEW MARKET MALL
COLUMBUS, FRANKLIN COUNTY, OHIO
Dear Mr. Camia:
In accordance with the engagement letter dated November 28, 1995, we have
appraised the property captioned above. The purpose of this appraisal is to
estimate the market value of the leased fee interest in the subject. This report
is to be used for internal decision-making purposes. The date as of which the
market value estimate applies is December 15, 1995, which was also the date of
our property inspection.
The subject is located at the northeast quadrant of Interstate 270 and
Sawmill Road in the city of Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio. It consists of a
one-story, enclosed shopping center containing 172,461 square feet of rentable
area situated on 15.856 acres. A complete description of the property, together
with the sources of information and the bases of the estimates, are stated in
the accompanying sections of this report. This appraisal has been completed in
compliance with the Standards of Professional Practice of the Appraisal
Institute. Your attention is called to the Standard Conditions and the
Certification which follow.
Subject to all conditions and explanations contained in the accompanying
report, our estimate of the market value of the leased fee interest in the
subject, expressed in terms of financial arrangements equivalent to cash, as of
December 15, 1995, is:
EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS
$8,000,000
The accompanying prospective financial analyses are based on estimates and
assumptions developed in connection with the appraisal. Some assumptions,
however, may not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may
occur; therefore, actual results achieved during the period covered by our
prospective financial analyses may vary from our estimates and the variations
may be material. Further, we have not been engaged to evaluate the effectiveness
of management, and we are not responsible for future marketing efforts and other
management actions upon which actual results will depend.
This report, the final estimate of value, and the prospective financial
analyses are intended solely for your information and assistance for the
function stated and should not be relied upon for any other purpose. Neither our

Operations, less the Partnership Management Fee, plus any amounts released from
working capital reserves pursuant to Paragraph 3.2(i) of the Partnership
Agreement, less any amounts set aside for additional working capital reserves.
"Distributions" shall mean any cash or other property distributed to
Partners arising from their interests in the Partnership, but shall not include
any payments to the General Partners under the provisions of Paragraph 9 or
Paragraph 10 of the Partnership Agreement.
"Net Income" or "Net Loss" shall mean the taxable income or losses of the
Partnership, as determined for federal income tax purposes.
"Sales Proceeds" shall mean the Partnership's share of (i) the net cash
received by a Joint Venture from the Sale or Disposition of any Property after
retirement of applicable mortgage debt, if any, and all expenses related to the
transaction, together with the principal amount of, and interest received on,
any notes taken back by the Joint Venture upon the sale of a Property, or (ii)
the net proceeds of a financing of a Property, provided that the Partnership may
first use such proceeds to repay a mortgage on another Property or to increase
the amount of working capital reserves.
"Sale or Disposition" shall mean any transaction (other than the receipt of
subscriptions for Units) not in the ordinary course of business, including,
without limitation, sales (including foreclosure sales), exchanges or other
dispositions of real or personal property, condemnations, recoveries of damage
awards and insurance proceeds (other than damage awards or insurance proceeds
used to repair or rebuild a Property or business or rental interruption
insurance proceeds).

Properties, recommending selling prices, terms and structure, identifying
potential purchasers, analyzing offers, negotiating purchase contracts and
managing the closing process, the Partnership shall pay the General Partners the
Subordinated Disposition Fee. Such fee shall be paid only if the General
Partners provide a substantial amount of services in the sales effort and shall
not exceed the Partnership's percentage interest in each Joint Venture,
multiplied by the lesser of (i) a percentage of the gross sales price of a
Property equal to one-half of the Competitive Commission (I.E., an amount equal
to the real estate brokerage fees customarily charged by independent real estate
brokers which are reasonable, customary and competitive, taking into
consideration the size, type and location of the Property), or (ii) up to 3% of
the gross sales price of a Property.
"Terminating Sale" shall mean any Sale or Disposition of a Property where
the Partnership's share of the aggregate purchase price of all Properties which
have been sold or disposed of exceeds 75% of the Partnership's share of the
aggregate original purchase price of all Properties.

EXHIBIT C
NUMERICAL EXAMPLES OF ALTERNATIVE PAYMENTS IF SETTLEMENT IS APPROVED
(AS OF MARCH 31, 1996)
The following schedule estimates, based on information available to the
General Partners, the payments that a Limited Partner who purchased $10,000
worth of Units in June 1987 in the initial closing of the Public Offering could
expect to receive under each of the four alternatives listed under "The Proposal
and Reasons for the Proposal -- Summary of Potential Payments to Limited
Partners If the Settlement Is Approved" as of March 31, 1996, after giving
effect to the semi-annual distribution which is expected to occur on May 15,
1996. This Limited Partner is referred to in this Exhibit as "LP." Limited
Partners should refer to that section for a more detailed description of each of
the alternatives. There are many assumptions incorporated into this schedule and
Limited Partners are urged to carefully read all assumptions. Limited Partners
should also be aware that if they acquired their Units after June 1987 either
from the Partnership in a subsequent closing of the Public Offering or from
another Limited Partner, their estimated payments may, and probably will, differ
from those set forth in the following schedule due to differences in the amount
paid to acquire the Units and/or the amount of distributions received from the
time of acquisition.
Please be advised that the payments disclosed below are forward looking
statements and ESTIMATES ONLY. The actual amount that a Limited Partner would
receive would depend on a number of factors, including the facts and
circumstances of Court approval and additional distributions paid to such
Limited Partner after May 15, 1996. If the Partnership made additional
distributions between May 15, 1996 and the date the Settlement becomes final and
no longer subject to appeal, the amount paid to LP pursuant to the Settlement
will be reduced by such distributions paid to LP. The estimated payment does NOT
include LP's pro rata share of the Partnership's working capital as of March 31,
1996. The actual payment that LP would receive would include such an amount.
As discussed under "The Proposal and Reasons for the Proposal -- Effect of
Approval of the Proposal and the Settlement," the Liquidation Advance to a
Settling Limited Partner will be equal to such Settling Limited Partner's share
of Adjusted NAV and Distributable Working Capital. "Adjusted NAV" is the
estimated market value as of December 31, 1995, as determined by the General
Partners, of the Partnership's interests in the Joint Ventures, adjusted for any
sales of Properties from December 31, 1995 to the Final Settlement Date.
The General Partners have determined the estimated market value as of
December 31, 1995 of the Partnership's interests in the Joint Ventures to be
$12,306,955. In determining such estimated market value, the General Partners
relied in part on the appraisals of the Properties prepared by the Appraisers.
An appraisal is an estimate or opinion of value and cannot be relied upon as a
precise measure of value or worth. The amount that may be realized upon sale of
a Property may be more or less than its appraised value. None of the Appraisers
solicited any offers or inquiries with respect to the Properties from potential
purchasers, and therefore, the appraisals should not be construed to suggest
that a buyer was, in fact, available or if one were available, that it would be
willing to pay the appraised value. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to
the value that may be obtained upon sale of the Properties.
While the following estimated payments are based on assumptions that the
General Partners believe to be reasonable, such assumptions are inherently
uncertain and unpredictable.

ASSUMPTIONS:
1) LP is assumed to be an original purchaser of 1,000 Units in June 1987
which he, she or it purchased for $10 per Unit, or a total of $10,000,
and has continuously held such Units since their purchase.
2) The Partnership will pay the first quarter distribution on May 15, 1996.
Partnership activity after March 31, 1996 is not reflected in this
schedule.
3) The Adjusted NAV is $12,306,955, which is based in part on the appraisals
of the Properties prepared by the Appraisers.
4) The Liquidating Distribution is calculated based on the pro forma
liquidation balance sheet as of March 31, 1996, as adjusted to reflect
the exclusion of $283,393 of cash and cash equivalents which represents
the first quarter distribution to be paid on May 15, 1996, and the
assumptions set forth therein.
5) The estimated Liquidation Advances do NOT include LP's share of the
Partnership's Distributable Working Capital.
