                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               SEPTEMBER 15, 1996
                                   (Unaudited)

NOTE 1  -     General

              The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Partnership and 31 subsidiary partnerships ("subsidiary partnerships" or Local
Partnerships) in which the Partnership is a limited partner. Through the rights
of the Partnership and/or the General Partner, which General Partner has a
contractual obligation to act on behalf of the Partnership, to remove the
general partner of the subsidiary local partnerships and to approve certain
major operating and financial decisions, the Partnership has a controlling
financial interest in the subsidiary local partnerships. All intercompany
accounts and transactions with the subsidiary partnerships have been eliminated
in consolidation.

              The Partnership's fiscal quarter ends on September 15. All
subsidiary partnerships have fiscal quarters ending June 30. Accounts of the
subsidiary partnerships have been adjusted for intercompany transactions from
July 1 through September 15.

              In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Asset and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed
Of". Under SFAS No. 121, the Partnership is required to review long-lived assets
and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be
recoverable. An impairment loss should be recognized whenever the review
demonstrates that the book value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable.
Effective March 16, 1996, the Partnership adopted SFAS No. 121, consistent with
the required adoption period.

              Property and equipment are carried at the lower of depreciated
cost or estimated amounts recoverable through future operations and ultimate
disposition of the property. Cost includes the purchase price, acquisition fees
and expenses, and any other costs incurred in acquiring the properties. As
required by SFAS 121, a provision for loss on impairment of assets is recorded
when estimated amounts recoverable through future operations and sale of the
property on an undiscounted basis are below depreciated cost. However,
depreciated cost, adjusted for such reductions in value, if any, may be greater
than the fair value. Property investments themselves are reduced to estimated
fair value (generally using discounted cash flows) when the property is
considered to be impaired and the depreciated cost exceeds estimate fair value.
Through September 15, 1996, the Partnership has not recorded any provisions for
loss on impairment of assets or reduction to estimated fair value.

              In the opinion of the general partners of the Partnership, the
accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Partnership as of September 15, 1996, the results of operations
for the three and six months ended September 15, 1996 and 1995 and cash flows
for the six months ended September 15, 1996 and 1995. However, the operating
results for the six months ended September 15, 1996 may not be indicative of the
results for the year.

              Certain information and note disclosure normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principals have been omitted or condensed. These consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period
ended March 15, 1996.

              Increases (decreases) in the capitalization of consolidated
subsidiary partnerships attributable to minority interest arises from cash
contributions and cash distributions to the minority interest partners.

NOTE 1  -     General (continued)

              Losses attributable to minority interests which exceed the
minority interests' investment in subsidiary partnerships have been charged to
the Partnership. Such losses aggregated $30,000 and $97,000, and $50,000 and
$101,000 for the three and six months ended September 15, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The Partnership's investment in each subsidiary partnership is
equal to the respective subsidiary partnership's partners' equity less minority
interest capital, if any. In consolidation, all subsidiary partnership losses
are included in the Partnership's capital account except for losses allocated to
minority interest capital.


NOTE 2  -     Related Party Transactions

              An affiliate of the General Partners has a 1% interest as a
special limited partner, in each of the subsidiary partnerships. An affiliate of
the General Partners also has a minority interest in certain subsidiary
partnerships.

              The General Partners and their affiliates perform services for the
Partnership. The costs incurred for the three and six months ended September 15,
1996 and 1995 are as follows:

                  (a) The General Partners are entitled to receive a partnership
management fee, after payment of all Partnership expenses, which together with
the local annual administrative fees will not exceed a maximum of 0.5% per annum
of invested assets (as defined in the Partnership Agreement), for administering
the affairs of the Partnership. The partnership management fee, subject to the
foregoing limitation, will be determined by the general partners in their sole
discretion based upon their review of the Partnership's investments. Partnership
management fees owed to the General Partners amounting to approximately $950,000
and $850,000 were accrued and unpaid as of September 15, 1996 and March 15,
1996, respectively.

                  (b) The Partnership reimburses the General Partners and their
affiliates for actual Partnership operating expenses incurred by the General
Partners and their affiliates on the Partnership's behalf. The amount of
reimbursement from the Partnership is limited by the provisions of the
Partnership Agreement. Another affiliate of the General Partners performs asset
monitoring for the Partnership. These services include site visits and
evaluations of the subsidiary partnerships' performance. Expense reimbursements
and asset monitoring fees owed to the Related General Partner amounting to
approximately $244,000 and $172,000 were accrued and unpaid as of September 15,
1996 and March 15, 1996, respectively.

              The following disclosures include changes and/or additions to
disclosures regarding the subsidiary partnerships which were included in the
Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 15, 1996.

              2108 Bolton Drive Associates, L.P.
              ----------------------------------

              2108 Bolton Drive Associates, L.P. ("2108"), has experienced
recurring operating losses and had a working capital deficit at December 31,
1995. The auditors for 2108 modified their report on the 1995 and 1994 Fiscal
Year financial statements due to the uncertainty of 2108's ability to continue
as a going concern. On March 18, 1996, 2108 refinanced its mortgage payable of
approximately $3,500,000 (see Note 3 above). The Partnership's investment in
2108 at September 15, 1996 and March 15, 1996 was approximately $1,854,000 and
$2,204,000, respectively and the minority interest balance was approximately
$1,692,000 and $1,695,000. 2108's net loss after minority interest amounted to
approximately $107,000 and $349,000 and $241,000 and $429,000 for the three and
six months ended September 15, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

              Regent Street Associates, L.P.
              ------------------------------

              Regent Street Associates, L.P. ("Regent Street") has received from
the Internal Revenue Service a notice of final partnership administrative
adjustment. Pursuant to the notice the Internal Revenue Service has challenged
the method in which Regent Street has allocated the below-market federal
financing to its properties, which challenge, if successful, would result in
Regent Street only being able to claim a 4% Low Income Housing

Service has also challenged the inclusion of a portion of the developer's fee
and legal costs in qualified expenditures for the purpose of determining Low
Income Housing and Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits and depreciable basis.
The general partners of the Regent Street subsidiary partnership have filed a
petition in the United States Tax Court for readjustment challenging each of the
positions taken by the Internal Revenue Service. The Partnership's investment in
Regent Street at September 15, 1996 and March 15, 1996 was approximately
$1,024,000 and $1,153,000, respectively, and the minority interest balance was
zero at each date. Regent Street's net loss after minority interest amounted to
approximately $76,000 and $129,000 and $59,000 and $139,000 for the three and
six months ended September 15, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

              Greenleaf Associates, L.P.
              --------------------------

              Greenleaf Associates, L.P. ("Greenleaf"), a subsidiary partnership
had not made its monthly mortgage payments when due. Pursuant to the terms of
the mortgage note, Greenleaf's failure to make the required payments when due,
constituted an event of default. As a result of the default, the mortgagee could
have demanded full payment of the mortgage loan balance ($4,453,250 at December
31, 1995) and exercised the other remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code including taking possession of the collateral (the project) and
selling or otherwise disposing of the project. However, as of September 15,
1996, these payments have been made and the mortgage is current.

Item 2.       Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
              Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------

              The Partnership's capital has been invested in 31 Local
Partnerships.

              The Partnership's primary sources of funds are the cash
distributions from operations of the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership
has invested. These sources are available to meet obligations of the
Partnership. However, the cash distributions received from the Local
Partnerships to date have not been sufficient to meet all such obligations of
the Partnership. During the six months ended September 15, 1996 and 1995 such
distributions amounted to approximately $84,000 and $89,000 respectively.
Accordingly, the Related General Partner advanced funds totaling approximately
$118,000 and $59,000 at September 15, 1996 and March 15, 1996 respectively, to
meet the Partnership's third party obligations. In addition, certain fees and
expense reimbursements owed to the General Partners amounting to approximately
$1,194,000 and $1,022,000 were accrued and unpaid as of September 15, 1996 and
March 15, 1996, respectively. Without the General Partner's advances and
continued accrual without payment of certain fees and expense reimbursements,
the Partnership will not be in a position to meet its obligations, The General
Partners have continued advancing and allowing the accrual without payment of
these amounts but are under no obligation to do so.

              For the six months ended September 15, 1996, cash and cash
equivalents of the Partnership and its 31 consolidated subsidiary partnerships
decreased approximately ($137,000). This decrease is attributable to acquisition
of property and equipment ($392,000), an increase in cash held in escrow for
investing activities ($101,000), an increase in deferred costs ($162,000), a
decrease in due to selling partners ($73,000), a decrease in capitalization of
consolidated subsidiaries attributable to minority interest ($467,000) which
exceeded cash provided by operating activities ($647,000), net proceeds from
mortgage notes ($131,000) and a net increase in due to local general partners
and affiliates ($281,000). Included in the adjustments to reconcile the net loss
to cash provided by the operating activities is depreciation and amortization in
the amount of approximately $4,543,000.

              For a discussion of contingencies affecting certain Local
Partnerships, see Note 4 to the financial statements. Since the maximum loss the
Partnership would be liable for is its net investment in the respective Local
Partnerships, the resolution of the existing contingencies is not anticipated to
impact future results of operations, liquidity or financial condition in a
material way. However, the Partnership's loss of its investment in a Local
Partnership will eliminate the ability to generate future tax credits from such
Local Partnership and may also result in recapture of tax credits if the
investment is lost before the expiration of the credit period.

              Except as described above, management is not aware of any other
trends or events, commitments or uncertainties that will impact liquidity in a
material way. Management believes the only impact would be from laws that have
not yet been adopted. The portfolio is diversified by the location of the
properties around the United States so that if one area of the country is
experiencing downturns in the economy, the remaining properties in the portfolio
may be experiencing upswings. However, the geographic diversifications of the
portfolio may not protect against a general downturn in the national economy.
The Partnership has fully invested the proceeds of its offerings in 31 Local
Partnerships, all of which fully have their tax credits in place (see Note 4 to
the financial statements with respect to Regent Street Associates L.P.). The tax
credits are attached to the project for a period of ten years and are
transferable with the property during the remainder of the ten year period. If
trends in the real estate market warranted the sale of a property, the remaining
tax credits would transfer to the new owner, thereby adding significant value to
the property on the market, which are not included in the financial statement
carrying amount.

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------

              In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Asset and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed
Of". Under SFAS No. 121, the Partnership is required to review long-lived assets
and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the book value of 


                                      -10-

an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss should be recognized
whenever the review demonstrates that the book value of a long-lived asset is
not recoverable. Effective March 16, 1996, the Partnership adopted SFAS No. 121,
consistent with the required adoption period.

              Property and equipment are carried at the lower of depreciated
cost or estimated amounts recoverable through future operations and ultimate
disposition of the property. Cost includes the purchase price, acquisition fees
and expenses, and any other costs incurred in acquiring the properties. A
provision for loss on impairment of assets is recorded when estimated amounts
recoverable through future operations and sale of the property on an
undiscounted basis are below depreciated cost. However, depreciated cost,
adjusted for such reductions in value, if any, may be greater than the fair
value. Property investments themselves are reduced to estimated fair value
(generally using discounted cash flows) when the property is considered to be
impaired and the depreciated cost exceeds estimated fair value. Through
September 15, 1996, the Partnership has not recorded any provisions for loss on
impairment of assets or reduction to estimated fair value.

              Results of operations for the three and six months ended September
15, 1996 and 1995 consisted primarily of the results of the Partnership's
investment in the consolidated Local Partnerships.

              Rental income increased approximately 1% for both the three and
six months ended September 15, 1996 as compared to the corresponding periods in
1995 primarily due to annual rental rate increases.

              Other income decreased approximately $158,000 for the six months
ended September 15, 1996 as compared to the corresponding period in 1995
primarily due to one Local Partnership being awarded a one time special grant
for property improvements during the first quarter of 1995.

              Total expenses excluding general and administrative-related
parties and repairs and maintenance remained fairly consistent with decreases of
1% and 2% for the three and six months ended September 15, 1996 as compared to
1995.

              General and administrative expenses-related parties decreased
approximately $38,000 and $87,000 for the three and six months ended September
15, 1996 as compared to the corresponding periods in 1995 primarily due to
decreases in partnership management fees and expense reimbursements.

              Repairs and maintenance increased approximately $335,000 and
$453,000 for the three and six months ended September 15, 1996 as compared to
the corresponding periods in 1995. This is primarily due to increases at seven
Local Partnerships. There was an increase at one Local Partnership due to damage
caused by high winds. Another Local Partnership installed a fence and new entry
doors. There was an increase in expenses at a third Local Partnership primarily
due to roof and concrete repairs as well as carpeting and cabinet replacement. A
fourth Local Partnership replaced carpeting. There was an increase at a fifth
Local Partnership due to painting and roof repairs. A sixth Local Partnership
installed a security system, perimeter fencing, as well as made repairs to a
community room. The increase at the seventh Local Partnership wa primarily due
to carpet replacement as well as repairs to the exterior of the building.
