Note 1 - 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. (the
"Partnership") as of June 30, 1998 and the results of operations and cash flows
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997. 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, 1998.
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 three month period ended March 31, and occupancy rates are as
of March 31.

Note 2 - Related Parties

During their respective ownership periods, the General Partners and their
affiliates have performed services for the Partnership which include, but are
not limited to: accounting and financial management, registrar, transfer and
assignment functions, asset management, investor communications, printing and
other administrative services. The General Partners and their affiliates receive
management fees and reimbursements for general and administrative costs incurred
in connection with these services, the amount of which is limited by the
provisions of the Partnership Agreement. In order to assist in the transition
from Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc. ("PBP") to RCC Partners 96 L.L.C. (the
"New GP" or "General Partner") as General Partner, the New GP has engaged PBP to
perform certain of the forgoing services and paid PBP from amounts which would
otherwise be payable to the New GP pursuant to the terms of the Partnership
Agreement. These services terminated March 31, 1998. The costs and expenses
incurred to the General Partner (prior to October 1, 1997 PBP and thereafter the
New GP ) were:

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
affordable multi-family residential complexes. The Local Partnerships are
operated in accordance with the rules and regulations under Section 42 of the
Internal Revenue Code 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. The Partnership is dependent upon the support of
the General Partner and certain of its affiliates in order to meet its
obligations at the Partnership level. The General Partner and these affiliates
have agreed to continue such support for the foreseeable future.

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 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 June 30, 1998, there is still an
operating deficit guaranty agreement in effect at 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
$2,742,000 was funded. Of the total funded, the Local General Partner has
elected to treat $1,933,000 as non-repayable advances. The Local General Partner
is also obligated to fund operating deficits during a second guaranty period
which commenced August 1996 and expires July 1999. The maximum funding
obligation during this second guaranty period is $924,000. Through June 30,
1998, the entire obligation has been funded pursuant to this second guaranty
period. As of June 30, 1998, the financial statements of the Partnership include
approximately $809,000 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 Local General Partner is
currently reviewing different alternatives to improve

                                       10
<PAGE>

property cash flow and reduce operating deficits. Also the management agent has
been replaced so as to implement a new strategy for increasing property
performance.

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 June 30, 1998 also reflect payables of
$150,000 under operating deficit guaranty agreements at Hubbard's Ridge and Hill
Top Homes, which have expired.

Results of Operations

The operating results of the Local Partnerships consolidated herein are for the
three month periods ended March 31. Information disclosed below with respect to
each Local Partnership is consistent with this method of presentation.

Net operating income before debt service and depreciation of the Local
Partnerships was as follows:

Rental income decreased $105,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to 1997 mainly as a result of decreases at Summer Creek Villas and
Papillion due to lower occupancies.

Partnership management fees decreased approximately $22,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 as compared to 1997 primarily due to a reduction of the fee
for participating interest of the invested assets from 0.5% to 0.375% annually.
