STATEMENT PURSUANT TO RULE 13d-1
OF THE
GENERAL RULES AND REGULATIONS
UNDER THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT")
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
This statement relates to Units ("Units") of limited partnership
interests in Boston Financial Qualified Housing Tax Credits L.P. V, A
Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership (the
"Partnership"), which has its principal executive offices at 101 Arch
Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
This Statement is filed jointly by Oldham Institutional Tax
Credits LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company ("Oldham"), and
West Cedar Managing, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the "Managing
Member"). Oldham and the Managing Member are sometimes collectively
referred to herein as the "Reporting Persons."
Oldham was organized for the purpose of acquiring the Units
pursuant to a tender offer on Schedule 14D-1, commenced on July 24,
1997 (the "Tender Offer"). The address of Oldham's principal business
and its principal office is 101 Arch Street, Boston, Massachusetts
02110. The managing member of Oldham is the Managing Member. The
directors of the Managing Member are Michael H. Gladstone, William E.
Haynsworth and Jenny Netzer. The Managing Member is principally
engaged in the business of serving as managing member of Oldham and
managing member of other limited liability companies or partnerships
involved in the acquisition of low-income housing credits. The address
of the Managing Member's principal business and its principal office
is 101 Arch Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110.
Attached hereto as Appendix A is information concerning the
executive officers, directors and control persons of the Managing
Member, which information is required to be disclosed in response to
Item 2 and General Instruction C to Schedule 13D.
None of the Reporting Persons nor any of the persons or entities
referred to in Appendix A hereto has, during the last five years, been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and
similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a
judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a
result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or
final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or
finding any violation with respect to such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons are deemed to
beneficially own 8,033.5 Units. The source of all funds used to
acquire beneficial ownership of the Units is a loan (the "Loan")
obtained by Oldham from one of its affiliates, The Boston Financial
Group Limited Partnership ("BFGLP"), on substantially the same
economic terms and conditions that BFGLP borrows such funds under an
existing credit facility (the "Existing Credit Facility") that BFGLP
has available to it with Fleet Bank of Massachusetts, N.A. (the
"Lender").
The Existing Credit Facility is between the Lender and BFGLP.
The interest rate is the "Prime Rate" (as publicly announced by the
Lender, from time to time) plus .125%, which is presently equal to
8.625% per annum or the "LIBOR Rate" (the annual rate of interest
equal to 1.75% above LIBOR), as elected by BFGLP.
Oldham expects to repay all amounts borrowed from its affiliate
by selling additional membership interests to persons or entities that
have a need for the tax credits and/or tax losses attributable to the
Units. No plans or arrangements have been made with regard to the
payment of periodic interest required by the terms of the loan.
However, it is expected that if interest payments are due and payable,
Oldham may borrow those funds from its affiliate(s). The Managing
Member is deemed to beneficially own the Units beneficially owned by
Oldham. The Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons were
acquired as described below.
Pursuant to the Tender Offer and the administrative
agent/depositary's calculation of the number of Units tendered, Oldham
purchased an aggregate of 8,033.5 Units as of the date hereof for an
aggregate purchase price of approximately $5,422,612.50. Oldham
obtained or will obtain all of such funds from the Loan as described
above.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Each of the Reporting Persons acquired beneficial ownership of
the Units for investment purposes and not with the purpose of changing
or influencing control of the Partnership. Each of the Reporting
Persons retains the right, however, to change such investment intent,
to acquire additional Units or to sell or otherwise dispose of all or
part of the Units beneficially owned by such Reporting Person in any
manner permitted by law.
Although the foregoing currently reflects the present plans and
intentions of the Reporting Persons, the foregoing is subject to
change at any time. The Reporting Persons have and will, on an on-
going basis, continue to evaluate their investment in the Partnership.
In the event of a material change in the present plans or intentions
of the Reporting Persons, the Reporting Persons will amend this
Schedule 13D to reflect such change.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) and (b) As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons are
deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 8,033.5 Units, which
constitutes approximately 11.7% of the Units outstanding. (All
calculations of percentages of beneficial ownership in this
Schedule 13D are based on there being 68,929 Units outstanding as
of March 31, 1997, as disclosed on the Partnership's annual
report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 31, 1997.) The
Reporting Persons have sole voting and sole dispositive power of
all such Units beneficially owned.
(c) Except for the Units purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer,
neither Oldham, the Managing Member, and to the best of Oldham's
knowledge, the persons listed on Appendix A, nor any affiliate thereof
has effected any transaction in the Units within the past 60 days.
(d) The Reporting Persons have no knowledge of any persons who
have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of
distributions from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any Units
beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
The information set forth in Item 3, Item 4 and Item 5 above is
hereby incorporated herein by reference.
Except as described above, the Reporting Persons do not have
any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with
respect to any securities of the Partnership.
Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
None
After due inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I
certify that the information set forth in this statement is true,
complete and correct.
