A. General
 
   These consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit. In
the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the financial position of Patriot Tax Credit Properties L.P.
(formerly known as Prudential-Bache Tax Credit Properties L.P. and herein
referred to as the 'Partnership') as of September 30, 1997, the results of its
operations for the six and three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 and
its cash flows for the six months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. However,
the operating results for the interim periods may not be indicative of the
results expected for a full year.
 
   Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated
financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form
10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended March
31, 1997. Also, certain balances from prior periods have been reclassified to
conform with the current financial statement presentation.
 
   The Partnership invests in partnerships (the 'Local Partnerships') which own
the properties. The financial statements of the Local Partnerships consolidated
herein are for the six-month period ended June 30, and occupancy rates are as of
June 30.
 
   On October 1, 1997, as part of the settlement of class action litigation
known as Prudential Securities Inc. Limited Partnership Litigation, MDL No.
1005, Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc. ('PBP') withdrew as the general partner
and transferred its general partner interest in the Partnership to RCC Partners
96, L.L.C. (the 'New GP'), an affiliate of Related Capital Company ('RCC')
pursuant to a purchase agreement dated as of December 19, 1996 among PBP and its
affiliates and RCC ('Purchase Agreement'). Affiliates of RCC have in the past
provided and currently provide services to the Partnership and also serve as
co-general partners of four of the eight Local Partnerships in which the
Partnership has an interest. The Partnership's agreement of limited partnership
(the 'Partnership Agreement') was amended to reflect this withdrawal and
admission and authorized PBP to transfer and assign its interest in the
Partnership to the New GP and to withdraw from the Partnership. The terms of the
transaction are more fully described in the Partnership's Information Statement
dated June 18, 1997 (the 'Information Statement'), which was previously
distributed to all partners of the Partnership.
 
   Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, P-B Tax Credit S.L.P. ('PBSLP') withdrew
as special limited partner of each of the Local Partnerships and was replaced by
Independence SLP L.P. (the 'New SLP'), an affiliate of RCC. All special limited
partnership interests in the Local Partnerships were transferred to the New SLP.
Also pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Prudential-Bache Investor Services II,
Inc. ('P-B II') withdrew as assignor limited partner of the Partnership and was
replaced by Related Insured BUC$ Associates, Inc., an affiliate of RCC, (the
'New ALP'). All assignor limited partnership interests in the Partnership were
transferred to the New ALP.
 
   The New GP is a Delaware limited liability company which was formed in July
1996, and is owned and controlled by the partners of RCC. The New GP will only
have a specified net worth, if any, as may be necessary for the Partnership to
be treated as a Partnership for federal income tax purposes.
 
   Affiliates of the New GP and RCC have had significant involvement with the
Partnership and the Local Partnerships. During the acquisition phase of the
Partnership's operation, among other services, affiliates of RCC provided
various services to PBP pursuant to a Real Estate Consulting Services Agreement.
These services included the identification, evaluation, negotiation and closing
of certain of the Partnership's investments for which RCC was paid a portion of
the acquisition fees and expenses paid to PBP.
 
                                       5

   RCC in the past provided, and will continue to provide ongoing monitoring
services with respect to the Partnership's investments pursuant to the Property
Investment Monitoring Agreement for which RCC in the past received from PBP a
portion of the partnership management fee payable to PBP and an annual expense
allowance of up to $1,300 per site visit (after the initial four site visits).
 
   Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the following changes were made to the
Partnership Agreement:
 
   (a) amended to change the name of the Partnership to 'Patriot Tax Credit
       Properties L.P.', a Delaware Limited Partnership. The Partnership's new
       place of business will be 625 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022.
 
   (b) amended to confirm that PBP will continue to be party to the
       indemnification provisions set forth in the Partnership Agreement.
 
   (c) amended to reflect (1) the reduction in the general partner's maximum
       participating interest in cash flow from 0.5% annually of invested assets
       to 0.375% annually; (2) the reduction by 50% of the general partner's
       residual interest in the Partnership comprised of (i) subordinated
       interest in disposition proceeds and (ii) interest in distributions of
       sale or refinancing proceeds; and (3) corresponding reductions in the
       general partner's interest in profits and losses. Finally, pursuant to
       the Purchase Agreement, PBP and PBSLP forgave all deferred and unpaid
       fees due to them by the Partnership and the Local Partnerships. The
       aggregate amount of such deferred and unpaid fees was $1,048,871 as of
       September 30, 1997 and is reflected in the Consolidated Statement of
       Changes in Partners' Capital as a capital contribution.
 
B. Related Parties
 
   PBP and its affiliates performed services for the Partnership which included,
but were not limited to: accounting and financial management, registrar,
transfer and assignment functions, asset management, investor communications,

provisions of the Partnership Agreement. The costs and expenses incurred were:

   Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, PBP and PBSLP forgave all deferred and
unpaid fees due to them by the Partnership and the Local Partnerships (See Note
A for further information). The aggregate amount of such deferred and unpaid
fees totalled $1,048,871 and is reflected in the Consolidated Statement of
Changes in Partners' Capital as a capital contribution. PBP forgave $799,618
relating to management fees that had been deferred since January 1, 1995 and
$104,400 of general and administrative fees that had been deferred since April
1, 1996. PBSLP, an affiliate of PBP, acting as a special limited partner for
each of the Local Partnerships and entitled to up to $2,750 per year as a local
administrative fee, forgave $144,853 of such fees.
 
   In May 1997, the management company for Summer Creek Villas and Cutler Canal
II, an affiliate of the Local General Partner, was sold to a third party.
Accordingly, at September 30, 1997, the properties owned by four of the Local
Partnerships are managed by a Local General Partner or its affiliates.
 
   The Partnership maintains an account with the Prudential Tax Free Money Fund,
an affiliate of PBP, for investment of its available cash in short-term
instruments.
 
   Prudential Securities Incorporated, an affiliate of PBP, owns 56 BUC$ at
September 30, 1997.

           ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
   The Partnership invested in eight Local Partnerships that are owners of
low-income multi-family residential complexes. The Local Partnerships are
operated in accordance with the low-income housing rules and regulations in
order to protect the related tax credits. The Partnership's primary source of
funds is rental revenues which are fully utilized at the property level. A
working capital reserve ($109,100 at September 30, 1997) is maintained to fund
Partnership level expenses. The working capital reserve is invested in a
tax-free money fund. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, PBP and PBSLP forgave
all deferred and unpaid fees due to them by the Partnership and the Local
Partnerships (See Note A to the consolidated financial statements for further
information). The aggregate amount of such deferred and unpaid fees totalled
$1,048,871 and is reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in
Partners' Capital as a capital contribution.
 
   At the Local Partnership level, certain Local General Partners and/or their
affiliates have made guarantees with respect to the Local Partnerships which,
under certain circumstances, require their funding cash flow deficits pursuant
to operating deficit guaranty agreements. These operating deficit advances do
not bear interest and are repayable by the Local Partnership in accordance with
the respective Local Partnership agreement. As of September 30, 1997, there are
still operating deficit guaranty agreements in effect at Summer Creek Villas and
Papillion Heights.
 
   The Summer Creek Villas Local Partnership continues to experience severe cash
flow deficits. The maximum funding obligation of the Local General Partner for
the initial guaranty period under the Summer Creek Villas operating deficit
guaranty agreement (which expired on December 31, 1996) was $3,392,000, of which
$1,818,000 was funded. Of the total funded, the Local General Partner has
elected to treat $933,000 as non-repayable advances. The Local General Partner
is also obligated to fund operating deficits during a second guaranty period
commencing August 1996 and expiring July 1999. The maximum funding obligation
during this second guaranty period is $924,000. Through September 30, 1997, the
entire obligation has been funded pursuant to this second guaranty period.
However, as of September 30, 1997, the financial statements of the Partnership
include $1,640,000 as 'Due to general partners and affiliates of local
partnerships' for the two guaranty periods under the Summer Creek Villas
operating deficit guaranty agreement due to the three-month lag in recording the
financial information of the Local Partnerships.
 
   The Papillion Heights operating deficit guaranty agreement is in effect until
such date that the net operating income is sufficient to cover 115% of the debt
service for twelve consecutive months, as defined. Of the $170,000 maximum
funding obligation, $40,000 has been funded to date. In addition, the
Partnership's financial statements as of September 30, 1997 also reflect
payables of $150,000 under certain operating deficit guaranty agreements which
have expired.
 
   The Local Partnerships have generated net operating income before debt
service and depreciation of $1,736,000 and $2,067,000 during the six-month
periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Debt service payments
(interest and principal) made during the same periods were $2,282,000 and
$1,923,000, respectively.
 
Capital Improvements
 
   To better market the property, the Local General Partner for Summer Creek
Villas has decided to divide the apartment complex into two individual entities
called the Arbors and the Crossings. Of the total of 770 units in the complex,
the Arbors has 362 apartments and the Crossings has 408 apartments. Capital
improvements at Summer Creek Villas are projected to be approximately $600,000
for the year ended March 31, 1998 with the Local Partnership having expended
$143,000 during the six months ended September 30, 1997. A portion of these
capitalized costs were funded through operating deficit guaranty funding
obligations of the Local General Partner. The remainder of these capitalized
costs will be funded by the Local General Partner through additional loans to
the Local Partnership.

   Rental income decreased $131,000 for the six months ended September 30, 1997
as compared to 1996 mainly as a result of decreases of $149,000 and $26,000,
respectively, at Summer Creek Villas and Hubbard's Ridge due to lower average
occupancies, partially offset by increases at Hill Top Homes and Diamond Street
of $26,000 and $15,000, respectively, due to higher rental rates.
 
   Operating and other expense increased $81,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to 1996. The primary reason for the variance was
an increase at Summer Creek Villas of $68,000 due to higher advertising,
management salaries and bad debt expense, partially offset by a decrease in
utility expenses.
 
   Repairs and maintenance expense increased $104,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 1997 as compared to 1996 mainly due to an increase of $70,000 at
Summer Creek Villas resulting from higher maintenance salaries, contract
services and general maintenance costs. Additionally, increases at Cutler Canal
II, Brookland Park Plaza and Diamond Street of $15,000, $12,000 and $12,000,
respectively, for the six months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to 1996
resulted primarily from higher general maintenance costs.
 
   General and administrative expenses increased $47,000 for the six months
ended September 30, 1997 as compared to 1996 due to an increase of $15,000 to
administer the Partnership as well as increases of $10,000, $9,000 and $5,000 at
Hubbard's Ridge, Brookland Park Plaza and Hill Top Homes, respectively,
resulting from the timing of accruals for professional fees compared to the
prior year.
 
   Comparative second quarter 1997 and 1996 operating results generally reflect
the trends discussed for the six-month periods.
