PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
- ------- --------
The registrant, First Capital Growth Fund - XIV, A Real Estate Limited
Partnership (the "Partnership"), is a limited partnership organized in 1987
under the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Illinois. The
Partnership sold 145,182 Limited Partnership Assignee Units (the "Units") to the
public from December 1988 to September 1990, pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-11 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(Registration No. 33-19365). Unless otherwise disclosed herein, capitalized
terms used in this report have the same meaning as those terms have in the
Partnership's Registration Statement.
The Partnership was formed to invest on a leveraged basis in a diversified
portfolio of primarily institutional-quality, income-producing real estate, such
as shopping centers, office buildings, apartments, warehouses, manufactured
housing or any one or more of these categories. In December 1988, the
Partnership purchased a 25% interest in one joint venture which was formed with
an Affiliated partnership for the purpose of acquiring a 100% interest in
certain real property and in March 1991, the Partnership purchased a 50%
interest in one joint venture which was formed with the same Affiliated
partnership for the purpose of acquiring a 100% interest in certain real
property. These joint ventures, prior to dissolution, are operated under the
common control of First Capital Fund - XIV, Inc. (the "General Partner") and an
Affiliate. During 1993, the joint venture in which the Partnership had a 25%
interest, surrendered title to its property to the mortgagee through
foreclosure. During 1998, the Partnership sold its remaining property. The
Partnership is addressing post-sale matters. Upon resolution of these matters,
the Partnership will make a liquidating distribution to its Partners and
dissolve.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
- ------- ----------
By December 31, 1998, the Partnership had sold or disposed of all of its real
property investments.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- ------- -----------------
(a & b) The Partnership and its property were not a party to, nor the subject
of, any material pending legal proceedings, nor were any such proceedings
terminated during the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Ordinary routine legal
matters incidental to the business which were not deemed material were pursued
during the quarter ended December 31, 1998.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The ordinary business of the Partnership is expected to pass through its life
cycle in three phases: (i) the Offering of Units and investment in properties;
(ii) the operation of properties and (iii) the sale or other disposition of
properties.
Statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, which are not historical facts, may be
forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those
projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-
looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.
The Partnership commenced the Offering of Units on December 8, 1988 and began
operations on February 1, 1989 after reaching the required minimum subscription
level. On September 28, 1990, the Offering was terminated upon the sale of
145,182 units. In July 1989, the Partnership purchased a 25% interest in a
joint venture, which was formed with an Affiliated partnership for the purpose
of acquiring a 100% interest in certain real property, which was disposed of in
1993. In March 1991, the Partnership purchased a 50% interest in a joint
venture, which was formed with the same Affiliated partnership for the purpose
of acquiring a 100% interest in certain real property ("1800 Sherman"), which
was sold during 1998.
Operations
Comparison of the year ended December 31, 1998 to the year ended December 31,
1997
Net income increased by $1,769,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998 when
compared to the year ended December 31, 1997. The increase was primarily the
result of the gain recorded on the sale of 1800 Sherman and an increase in
interest earned on the Partnership's short-term investments. In addition, the
increase was due to a decrease in real estate taxes at 1800 Sherman. This
decrease occurred when the purchaser of 1800 Sherman assumed the responsibility
for payment of all unbilled real estate taxes. The credit given to the
purchaser for the assumption of this obligation was significantly less than the
amount accrued by the Partnership. Exclusive of real estate taxes, operating
results for 1800 Sherman diminished due to the absence of operating results
following its August 6, 1998 sale.
Rental revenues decreased by $604,100 or 38.3% for the year ended December 31,
1998 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1997. The decrease was
primarily due to the sale of 1800 Sherman in August 1998.
Comparison of the year ended December 31, 1997 to the year ended December 31,
1996
Net income increased by $42,800 for the year ended December 31, 1997 when
compared to the year ended December 31, 1996. The increase was primarily the
result of improved operating results at 1800 Sherman together with an increase
in interest earned on the Partnership's short-term investments.
Rental revenues increased by $44,800 or 2.9% for the year ended December 31,
1997 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1996. The increase was
primarily due to a slight increase in average occupancy and an increase in
rents charged to new and renewing tenants.
Real estate tax expense increased by $60,700 for the year ended December 31,
1997 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1996. The increase was
primarily the result of an adjustment made in 1996 for a reduction in 1996
taxes due to the successful appeal of the 1995 tax liability. Also contributing
to the increase was an increase in the estimated 1997 real estate tax
liability.
Repair and maintenance expenses decreased by $28,700 for the year ended
December 31, 1997 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1996. The
decrease was primarily due to reduced cleaning costs, resulting from a change
in the day porter, and a decrease in electrical repairs.
Property operating expenses decreased by $10,100 for the year ended December
31, 1997 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1996. The decrease was
primarily due to a 1997 increase in commissions paid to third party brokers in
connection with the leasing of 1800 Sherman. These expenses are capitalized and
amortized over the life of their respective leases and pursuant to the
management agreement reduce total fees paid to the property management company.
The rate of inflation has remained relatively stable during the years under
comparison and has had a minimal impact on the operating results of the
Partnership. The nature of various tenant lease clauses protected the
Partnership, to some extent, from increases in the rate of inflation. Certain
of the lease clauses provide for the following: (1) annual rent increases based
on the Consumer Price Index or graduated rental increases; (2) total or partial
tenant reimbursement of property operating expenses (e.g., common area
maintenance, real estate taxes, etc.).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
One of the Partnership's objectives is to dispose of its property when market
conditions allow for the achievement of the maximum possible sales price.
Notwithstanding the Partnership's objective relative to the sale of its
property, another primary objective of the Partnership is to provide cash
distributions to Partners from Partnership operations. Cash Flow (as defined in
the Partnership Agreement) is generally not equal to Partnership net income or
cash flows as determined by GAAP, since certain items are treated differently
under the Partnership Agreement than under GAAP. The General Partner believes
that to facilitate a clear understanding of the Partnership's operations, an
analysis of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) should be
examined in conjunction with an analysis of net income or cash flows as
determined by GAAP. The second table in Selected Financial Data includes a
reconciliation of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) to cash
flows provided by operating activities as determined by GAAP. Such amounts are
not indicative of actual distributions to Partners and should not necessarily
be considered as an alternative to the results disclosed in the Statements of
Income and Expenses and Statements of Cash Flows.
The increase in Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of $43,800
for the year ended December 31, 1998 when compared to the year ended December
31, 1997 was primarily due to the amount of credit given to the purchaser of
1800 Sherman to assume responsibility for real estate taxes, as previously
discussed. Also contributing to the increase was an increase in interest earned
on the Partnership's short-term investments. The increase was partially offset
by the partial absence of operating results due to the August 1998 sale of 1800
Sherman.
The decrease in the Partnership's cash position of $1,545,000 was primarily the
result of increases in
5
<PAGE>
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--(CONTINUED)
investments in debt securities and escrow deposits, as further discussed below.
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $640,100 for the year
ended December 31, 1998 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1997. The
decrease was primarily due to the timing of the payment of real estate taxes.
Historically, real estate taxes were paid one year in arrears in two
installments. The credit given to the purchaser for real estate taxes at the
closing of the sale of 1800 Sherman, accelerated payment and resulted in
reduced cash from operating activities. Also contributing to the decrease was
the partial absence of operating results from 1800 Sherman, due to its August
1998 sale.
Net cash (used for) provided by investing activities changed from $(93,300) for
the year ended December 31, 1997 to $5,779,200 for the year ended December 31,
1998. The change was primarily the result of the 1998 receipt of proceeds from
the sale of 1800 Sherman. The change was partially offset by an increase in
investment in debt securities. The investments in debt securities are a result
of the extension of the maturities of certain of the Partnership's short-term
investments in an effort to maximize the return on these amounts while they are
held for distribution to Partners. These investments are of investment-grade
and mature less than one year from their date of purchase. The change was also
partially offset by the increase in escrow deposits, as further discussed
below.
Net cash used for financing activities increased by $6,937,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1998 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1997. The
increase was primarily the result of the 1998 special distribution of the
proceeds from the sale of 1800 Sherman.
On August 6, 1998, the joint venture in which the Partnership owned a 50%
interest consummated the sale of 1800 Sherman. The Partnership's share of
proceeds from this transaction was $7,284,000. The Partnership made a
distribution of $6,896,200 or $47.50 per Unit on November 30, 1998 to Limited
Partners of record as of August 6, 1998 in connection with this transaction. In
accordance with the contract to sell the property, the joint venture placed
$500,000 of the proceeds from this transaction into an interest bearing escrow
account for a nine-month period. The funds placed into escrow are intended to
cover potential claims asserted by the purchaser arising from the
representations and warranties made by the joint venture.
The Year 2000 problem is the result of the inability of existing computer
programs to distinguish between a year beginning with "20" rather than "19".
This is the result of computer programs using two rather than four digits to
define an applicable year. If not corrected, any program having time-sensitive
software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year
2000. This could result in a variety of problems including miscalculations,
loss of data and failure of entire systems. Critical areas that could be
affected are accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, cash
management, investor services, computer hardware and telecommunications
systems.
The Partnership has engaged affiliated and unaffiliated entities to perform all
of its critical functions that utilize software that may have time-sensitive
applications. All of these service providers are providing these services for
their own organizations as well as for their clients. The General Partner, on
behalf of the Partnership, has been in close communication with each of these
service providers regarding steps that they are taking to assure that there
will be no serious interruption of the operations of the Partnership resulting
from Year 2000 problems. Based on the results of these inquiries, as well as a
review of the disclosures by these service providers, the General Partner
believes that the Partnership will be able to continue normal business
operations and will incur no material costs related to Year 2000 problems.
The Partnership has not formulated a contingency plan. However, the General
Partner believes that based on the status of the Partnership's real estate
portfolio and its limited number of transactions, aside from catastrophic
failures of banks, governmental agencies, etc., it could carry out
substantially all of its critical operations on a manual basis or easily
convert to systems that are Year 2000 compliant.
Distributions to Limited Partners for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, were
declared in the amount of $116,200 or $0.80 per Unit. Cash distributions are
made 60 days after the last day of each fiscal quarter.
Based upon the current estimated value of its remaining assets, net of its
outstanding liabilities, together with its expected operating results and post
closing dissolution expenses, the Partnership's cumulative distributions to its
Limited Partners from inception through the termination of the Partnership will
be less than such Limited Partners' Original Capital Contributions.
As disclosed above, the Partnership sold its remaining interest in a property
in August 1998. The General Partner has initiated the process of wrapping up
the affairs of the Partnership. This process includes the resolution of all
post sale matters including the release of funds held in escrow (scheduled to
be released in May 1999). Following the February 28, 1999 distribution, the
Partnership expects that no further quarterly distributions will be made. Upon
resolution of the post sale matters, the Partnership will pay a liquidating
distribution to Partners of the remaining assets in the Partnership, less
amounts reserved for existing liabilities, administrative expenses and amounts
deemed necessary for contingencies and other post closing matters.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Partnership has no financial instruments for which there are significant
market risks. Due to the timing of the maturities and liquid nature of the
Partnership's investments in debt securities, the Partnership does not believe
that it has material market risk.

being managed where the General Partner or its Affiliates provide leasing,
re-leasing and leasing-related services, or 3% of gross receipts where the
General Partner or its Affiliates do not perform leasing, re-leasing and
leasing-related services. Affiliates were entitled to property management
and supervisory fees of $52,300 during 1998. In addition, other Affiliates
of the General Partner were entitled to fees and compensation of $17,100 for
insurance and personnel services for 1998. In accordance with the
Partnership Agreement, these services were provided at a price which did not
exceed the lesser of the cost of such services to the General Partner or its
Affiliates or 90% of the competitive price which would be charged by non-
affiliated persons rendering similar services in the same or comparable
geographic location. As of December 31, 1998, fees and reimbursements of
$4,500 net, were due from Affiliates.
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, commencing with the fiscal
quarter in which the Minimum Subscription Closing Date occurred (the quarter
ended March 31, 1989), Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement),
if any, is distributed 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General
Partner. For the year ended December 31, 1998, the General Partner was paid
$51,600 of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement).
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, Losses (exclusive of Losses
from a Major Capital Event) are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99%
to the Limited Partners as a group. Losses from a Major Capital Event,
including any provisions for value impairment, are allocated prior to giving

Account of each Limited Partner equal to the Capital Investment of such
Limited Partner, plus an amount equal to a cumulative, simple return of 6%

General Partner was allocated Profits of $86,700, which included $25,300 in
Profits from the sale of 1800 Sherman.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Partners
First Capital Growth Fund - XIV,
A Real Estate Limited Partnership
Chicago, Illinois
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of First Capital Growth Fund -
XIV, A Real Estate Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
related statements of income and expenses, partners' capital and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. 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
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of First Capital Growth Fund -
XIV, A Real Estate Limited Partnership at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
DEFINITION OF SPECIAL TERMS:
Capitalized terms used in this report have the same meaning as those terms have
in the Partnership's Registration Statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on Form S-11. Definitions of these terms are contained in
Article III of the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership,
which is included in the Registration Statement and incorporated herein by
reference.
ORGANIZATION:
The Partnership was formed on December 29, 1987, by the filing of a Certificate
and Agreement of Limited Partnership with the Recorder of Deeds of Cook County,
Illinois, and commenced the Offering of Units on December 8, 1988. On February
1, 1989, the required minimum subscription level was reached, and the
Partnership commenced operations. The Offering was Terminated on September 28,
1990 with 145,182 Units sold. The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in
existing, improved, income-producing real estate on a leveraged basis.
The Partnership has disposed of its real estate properties. Upon resolution of
post closing matters related to the sale of the Partnership's final property
including the release of the funds held in escrow, the Partnership will make a
liquidating distribution and dissolve.
In 1998, the Partnership adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". The Partnership has one
reportable segment as the Partnership is in the disposition phase of its life
cycle, wherein it is seeking to resolve post-closing matters relating to the
property sold by the Partnership. The adoption of Statement 131 did not affect
the results of operations or financial position.
The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership will be dissolved on or
before December 31, 2018. The Limited Partners, by a majority vote, may
dissolve the Partnership at any time.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Partnership utilizes the accrual
method of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recorded when earned and
expenses are recorded when incurred.
Preparation of the Partnership's financial statements in conformity with GAAP
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.
The financial statements include the Partnership's 50% interest in a joint
venture with an Affiliated partnership. This joint venture was formed for the
purpose of acquiring a 100% interest in 1800 Sherman Office Building and until
its August 1998 sale was operated under the common control of the General
Partner and an Affiliate of the General Partner. Accordingly, the Partnership's
pro rata share of the venture's revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and
Partners' capital is included in the financial statements.
The Partnership is not liable for federal income taxes as the Partners
recognize their proportionate share of the Partnership income or loss in their
individual tax returns; accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is
made in the financial statements of the Partnership. In addition, it is not
practicable for the Partnership to determine the aggregate tax bases of the
individual Partners; accordingly, disclosure of the differences between the tax
bases and the reported assets and liabilities of the Partnership would not be
meaningful.
Commercial rental property is recorded at cost, net of any provisions for value
impairment, and depreciated (exclusive of amounts allocated to land) on the
straight-line method over its estimated useful life. Lease acquisition fees are
recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line method over the life of each
respective lease. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred;
expenditures for improvements are capitalized and depreciated on the straight-
line method over the estimated life of the improvements.
The Partnership evaluates its rental property for impairment when conditions
exist which may indicate that it is probable that the sum of expected future
cash flows (undiscounted) from such property is less than its carrying basis.
Upon determination that a permanent impairment has occurred, the carrying basis
of the rental property is reduced to its estimated fair value. Management was
not aware of any indicator that would result in a significant impairment loss
during the periods reported.
Cash equivalents are considered all highly liquid investments with a maturity
of three months or less when purchased.
Investments in debt securities are comprised of obligations of the United
States government and are classified as held-to-maturity. These investments are
carried at their amortized cost basis in the financial statements, which
approximated fair market value. All of these securities had maturities of less
than one year when purchased.
The Partnership's financial statements include financial instruments, including
receivables, escrow deposits and trade liabilities. The fair value of financial
instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, included in the financial
statements, was not materially different from their carrying values at December
31, 1998 and 1997.
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, commencing with the fiscal
quarter in which the Minimum Subscription Closing Date occurred (the quarter
ended March 31, 1989), Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement), if
any, is distributed
5
<PAGE>
90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partner. For each of the
years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the General Partner was paid Cash
Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of $51,600.
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, Losses (exclusive of Losses from
a Major Capital Event) are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the
Limited Partners as a group. Losses from a Major Capital Event, including any
provisions for value impairment, are allocated prior to giving effect to any
distribution of Sale or Refinancing Proceeds from such Major Capital Event:
first, to the General Partner and Limited Partners with positive balances in
their Capital Accounts, in proportion to and to the extent of such positive
balances; and second, the balance, if any, 1% to the General Partner and 99% to
the Limited Partners as a group. Profits (exclusive of Profits from a Major
Capital Event) are allocated: first, in accordance with the ratio in which Cash
Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) was distributable among the
Partners for such fiscal year, to the extent of such Cash Flow (as defined in
the Partnership Agreement), provided, however, that if the Partnership makes no
distributions of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) for such
fiscal year, then such Profits are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99%
to the Limited Partners as a group; and second, the balance, if any, 1% to the
General Partner and 99% to the Limited Partners as a group. Profits from a
Major Capital Event are allocated prior to giving effect to any distribution of
Sale or Refinancing Proceeds from such Major Capital Event: first, to the
General Partner and Limited Partners with negative balances in their Capital
Accounts, in proportion to and to the extent of such negative balances; second,
in proportion to and to the extent of the amounts, if any, necessary to make
the positive balance in the Capital Account of each Limited Partner equal to
the Capital Investment of such Limited Partner; third, in proportion to and to
the extent of the amounts, if any, necessary to make the positive balance in
the Capital Account of each Limited Partner equal to the Capital Investment of
such Limited Partner, plus an amount equal to a cumulative, simple return of 6%
per annum on the Capital Investment from time to time of such Limited Partner
from the date on which the investment in the Partnership was made (less amounts
previously returned by way of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership
Agreement) and Sale or Refinancing Proceeds in payment of said cumulative
return); and fourth, any remaining Profits are allocated 17% to the General
Partner and 83% to the Limited Partners as a group. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary, the interest of the General Partner in each material item of
Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction or credit will be equal to at least
1% of each such item at all times during the existence of the Partnership. For
the year ended December 31, 1998 the General Partner was allocated Profits of
$86,700, which included $25,300 from the sale of 1800 Sherman. For the years
ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, the General Partner was allocated Profits of
$47,200 and $42,900, respectively.
Fees and reimbursements paid and payable/(receivable) by the Partnership to
Affiliates were as follows:

</TABLE>
The variance between amounts listed in this table and the Statement of Income
and Expenses are due to capitalized legal costs.
On-site property management for the Partnership's property was provided by an
Affiliate of the General Partner for a fee equal to 3% of gross rents received
from the property. The Affiliate was entitled to leasing fees equal to 3% of
gross rents received less leasing fees, if any, paid to third parties.
3. INCOME TAX:
The Partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting for both income tax
reporting and financial statement purposes. The results for financial statement
purposes will differ from the results for income tax reporting purposes due to
the use of differing depreciation lives and methods, the recognition of rents
paid in advance as taxable income and the amount recognized as gain on sale of
property. For the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, net income for
tax reporting purposes was $719,600, $552,400 and $501,300, respectively.
4. PROPERTY SALE:
On August 6, 1998, the joint venture in which the Partnership owned a 50%
interest, consummated the sale of 1800 Sherman for a sale price of $15,050,000.
The Partnership's share of Sale Proceeds from this transaction amounted to
$7,284,000, which was net of closing expenses. The Partnership recorded a gain
of $1,626,900 for the year ended December 31, 1998 in connection with this
transaction. In accordance with the contract to sell the property, the joint
venture placed $500,000 of the proceeds from this transaction into an interest
bearing account for a nine-month period. The funds placed into escrow are
intended to cover any potential claims asserted by the purchaser arising from
representations and warranties made by the joint venture. The Partnership
distributed $6,896,200 or $47.50 per Unit on November 30, 1998 to Limited
Partners of record as of August 6, 1998. For income tax reporting purposes, the
Partnership recognized a gain of $216,700 for the year ended December 31, 1998.
The General Partner is currently working towards wrapping up the Partnership's
affairs. Upon completion, including the release of the remaining funds held in
escrow, the Partnership intends to made a liquidating distribution during 1999,
less funds needed to cover wrap up expenses and remaining actual and contingent
