contributions  and to pay future purchase price  installments on its investments
in Local Limited  Partnerships.  These future  payments are contingent  upon the

Agreements and total $337,500.

4.   Litigation

As previously  reported,  the Partnership and its affiliates  recently settled a
lawsuit with the former  managing  general  partners of Garden Cove  Apartments,
Ltd.  ("Garden Cove").  Management  believes the settlement was favorable to the
Partnership.  Among other things,  the majority of the settlement  payments were
reimbursed by the Partnership's insurer.  However, the Partnership also incurred
significant  litigation  expenses in connection with this matter. As of December
31, 1996, these expenses totaled approximately $190,000.

In early  September,  Garden Cove and the former local managing general partners
of this partnership were served with a lawsuit by Saunders Construction Company,
Inc., the contractor for this apartment  complex.  Saunders  claims that certain
amounts  on  its   construction   contract  remain  unpaid  and  it  is  seeking
approximately  $196,000, plus interest, from Garden Cove. Additional amounts are
sought from the former managing  general  partners.  Neither the Partnership nor
its General  Partners are  defendants  in this matter.  Because this lawsuit was
only recently filed,  it is too early to determine  whether Garden Cove may have
any exposure.

                             (A Limited Partnership)

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 1996, the Partnership,  including  Garden Cove  Apartments,  had
cash and cash equivalents of $269,071 as compared to $164,590 at March 31, 1996.
The increase is primarily attributable to proceeds from the sales and maturities
of  marketable  securities  and cash  distributions  received from Local Limited
Partnerships  in excess of purchases of marketable  securities and cash used for
operations.

The Managing  General Partner  initially  designated 3% of the Gross Proceeds to
Reserves.  The Reserves were  established to be used for working  capital of the
Partnership  and  contingencies  related  to  the  ownership  of  Local  Limited
Partnership  interests.  The Managing  General  Partner may increase or decrease
such Reserves from time to time, as it deems appropriate.  During the year ended
March 31, 1993,  the Managing  General  Partner  decided to increase the Reserve
level to 4% and it transferred the additional  funds to Reserves.  Approximately
$183,000  has been  withdrawn  from the  Reserve  account to pay legal and other
costs  related to the Mod Rehab  issue.  Additionally,  legal fees  relating  to
various  property  issues  totaling  approximately  $25,000  have been paid from
Reserves.  The Partnership  also advanced  approximately  $936,000 to four Local
Limited Partnerships.

Management  believes that the  investment  income earned on the Reserves,  along
with cash distributions received from Local Limited Partnerships,  to the extent
available,  will be sufficient  to fund the  Partnership's  ongoing  operations.
Reserves may be used to fund  Partnership  operating  deficits,  if the Managing
General Partner deems funding appropriate.  At December 31, 1996,  approximately
$1,079,000 of marketable securities has been designated as Reserves.

At December 31,  1996,  the  Partnership  has  committed to make future  capital
contributions  and to pay future purchase price  installments on its investments
in Local Limited  Partnerships.  These future  payments are contingent  upon the
achievement  of certain  criteria as set forth in the Local Limited  Partnership
Agreements and total $337,500.

Since the  Partnership  invests as a limited  partner,  the  Partnership  has no
contractual  duty to  provide  additional  funds to Local  Limited  Partnerships
beyond its specified investment.  Thus, as of December 31, 1996, the Partnership
had no contractual or other  obligation to any Local Limited  Partnership  which
had not been paid or provided for, except as disclosed above.

In the  event a Local  Limited  Partnership  encounters  operating  difficulties
requiring  additional funds, the  Partnership's  management might deem it in its
best  interest  to provide  such  funds,  voluntarily,  in order to protect  its
investment.

Cash Distributions

No cash distributions were made during the nine months ended December 31,1996.

Results of Operations

For the  three  and  nine  months  ended  December  31,  1996,  the  Partnership
operations resulted in net losses of $1,538,852 and $3,562,477, respectively, as
compared to net losses of $1,050,456 and $3,204,794,  respectively, for the same
periods in 1995.  The increase in net loss is primarily  due to higher equity in
losses of Local Limited Partnerships.  The increase in equity in losses of Local
Limited Partnerships is primarily  attributable to higher losses associated with
four Local Limited Partnerships which are affected by weak rental markets, costs
associated with unit turnover, and deferred or increased maintenance issues. The
increase in equity in losses is offset by fewer losses being  recognized in 1996
because more Local  Limited  Partnerships  have  cumulative  equity in losses in
excess of their total investments as compared to the same periods in 1995.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Property Discussions

Despite high occupancy and a debt  restructuring,  Atlantic Terrace,  located in
Washington,  D.C.,  continues to experience unstable operations due primarily to
costs  associated  with unit  turnover,  and increased  maintenance  and utility
expenses.  Deteriorating market conditions are also impacting the property.  The
managing agent is addressing  these issues through  enhanced  tenant  screening,
social programs and more careful expense monitoring.

Garden Cove,  located in Huntsville,  Alabama,  continues to generate  operating
deficits which are being funded from Partnership  Reserves.  Although operations
have improved since the recent debt  refinancing  and real estate tax abatement,
the property  remains unable to fully cover debt service from  operating  income
due to depressed rents.  The Managing General Partner is currently  working with
the management agent to find further ways to curtail the operating shortfalls.

Shadow Wood  Housing,  located in  Chickasha,  Oklahoma,  continues  to generate
operating  deficits  resulting from high security costs,  low Section 8 contract
rates and high debt service payments.  The Local General Partners are working to
improve  operating  results  through  contract  rent  increases and debt service
relief. The management agent is currently funding operating deficits.

As previously reported,  Snapfinger Creste,  Shannon Creste, and Grayton Pointe,
located in Georgia and which share the same Local General  Partner,  continue to
be affected by a weak rental market and deferred  maintenance  issues. The Local
General Partner is obligated to fund deficits and has made advances and deferred
management  fees. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner is in the process
of assuming  the local  general  partner  interest  and  management  contract at
Shannon Creste. The Managing General Partner has also successfully negotiated an
agreement with the lender to provide significant debt service relief and capital
improvements funding for this property.

Negotiations  with the lenders for both Snapfinger Creste and Grayton Pointe are
still  underway.  Pending an acceptable  workout  agreement  with these lenders,
affiliates  of the Managing  General  Partner are prepared to step in as General
Partner and/or managing agent for both properties.  These agreements may require
advances from Partnership  Reserves.  If negotiations with the lenders and Local
General Partner prove to be unsatisfactory,  it is unlikely that the Partnership
will be able to retain its interest in these properties for the long-term.  This
would result in recapture for investors of one third of the tax credit  benefits
and loss of future benefits associated with these properties.
