NOTES TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
---------------------------------------
(1) Accounting and Financial Reporting
----------------------------------
The financial statements included herein are unaudited; however,
the information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal
recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management,
necessary to a fair presentation of the financial position and results
of operations for the periods presented. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although
the Registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these
financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Registrant's latest
annual report on Form 10-K, and quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
(2) Pro Forma Adjustments
---------------------
The accompanying pro forma financial statements reflect the sale
of Riverbend Apartments by the Registrant. The balance sheet as of the
last filing date, March 31, 1998, has been restated to reflect the
removal of the assets and liabilities related to Riverbend Apartments,
including the retirement of the bank loan which was used to finance a
portion of the purchase of the forty percent co-venturer's interest in
the apartment community. The statements of operations for the three
month period ended March 31, 1998 and the year ended December 31, 1997
have been restated to reflect the results of operations of the
Registrant as if the sale had been consummated at the beginning of the
periods presented. As previously reported, the Registrant purchased
the forty percent co-venturer's interest in the apartment community on
December 15, 1997. However, the pro forma effect on the statement of
operations of the Registrant as a result of the acquisition of the
forty percent co-venturer's interest in Riverbend Apartments is negated
by the subsequent sale. Therefore, the net effect of the transactions
has been reflected in the pro forma statement of operations for the
year ended December 31, 1997. Please refer to the Form 8-K filed
December 22, 1997, and the annual report on Form 10-K, for additional
discussion regarding the acquisition of the forty percent co-venturer's
interest in Riverbend Apartments.
In addition, the accompanying pro forma financial statements
reflect the sale of Cherry Hill Office Center by the Registrant on
April 16, 1998. The balance sheet as of the last filing, March 31,
1998, has been restated to reflect the removal of the assets and
liabilities of the office center. The statements of operations for
both the three months ended March 31, 1998 and the year ended December
31, 1997 have been restated to reflect the results of operations of
the Registrant as if the sale had been consummated at the beginning of
the periods presented. Please refer also to the Form 8-K dated April
16, 1998 filed in connection with this transaction.
<PAGE>8
Furthermore, all items of income and related expenses of
Plantation Shopping Center, which was sold on December 8, 1997, have
been removed from the statement of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1997. The Registrant is reflecting this transaction in
accordance with the rules and regulations regarding the filing of Form
8-K, as the sale was consummated during the fiscal year presented.
Please refer also to the Form 8-K dated December 8, 1997, as amended,
filed in connection with this transaction.
All the assets and related liabilities of Riverbend Apartments
have been removed from the historical balance sheet to reflect the
sale of the property. Assets removed include that portion of "real
estate assets held for sale" pertaining to Riverbend Apartments,
$20,883,712, and prepaid expenses totalling $44,534. Liabilities
removed include the short-term bank loan of $4,000,000 that had been
used to finance a portion of the purchase of the forty percent co-
venturer's interest in Riverbend Apartments, accrued operating
expenses of $85,090, $26,396 of interest accrued on the short-term
note, and $98,938 of tenant security deposits. The balance of cash
has been increased to reflect the proceeds of sale reduced by the
retirement of the short-term note. The partners' capital accounts are
adjusted accordingly. All adjustments are shown as of the date of the
last balance sheet filed, March 31, 1998.
The assets and related liabilities of Cherry Hill Office Center
have been removed from the historical balance sheet to reflect the sale
of the property. Assets removed include that portion of "real estate
assets held for sale" pertaining to the office center, $4,100,422,
amounts recorded as receivable from tenants, $152,379, and
miscellaneous other assets totalling $32,498. Amounts recorded as
receivable from tenants include accrued rental income of $99,169,
(representing straight-line rent as provided by generally accepted
accounting principles which is calculated as the difference between
cash rent paid under the lease and the average rent due over the non-
cancelable term of the lease), and other amounts due from tenants
totalling $53,210. Liabilities removed include amounts recorded as
tenant security deposits, $83,111, accrued property operating expenses
totalling $26,396, and prepaid rents of $7,956. The balance of cash
has been increased for the proceeds from the sale of the office center.
Although the proceeds from the sale of Cherry Hill Office Center,
approximately $4,645,000, were used, in part, to retire the bank loan
which was used to finance a portion of the purchase of the forty
percent co-venturer's interest in Riverbend Apartments, since the
balance sheet is restated to reflect the sale of both the apartment
community and the office center, the retirement of the bank loan is
attributed to the sale of Riverbend Apartments on the pro forma
financial statements. The partners' capital accounts are adjusted to
reflect the net effect of the gain on sale of approximately $630,000
(see Note 3), and the write-off of amounts recorded as receivable from
tenants of $152,379. All adjustments are shown as of the date of the
last balance sheet filed, March 31, 1998.
<PAGE>9
All items of income of Riverbend Apartments have been removed
from the statements of operations for the periods presented, including
rental and other income received from tenants. All expenses relating
to the property, including interest accrued on the mortgage, real
estate operating expenses, taxes, and other expenses have also been
removed from the statements of operations. In addition, management
fees have been reduced to reflect the sale of the property. No
depreciation expense is included in the pro forma financial statements
since the property had been classified as an asset held for sale. The
aforementioned income and expense adjustments have been prepared as if
the sale had taken place at the beginning of the periods presented.
In accordance with the rules and regulations regarding the filing of
Form 8-K, no gain or loss from the sale of the real estate is
reflected in the pro forma statements of operations. (See also Note
3.)

regulations regarding the filing of Form 8-K, no gain or loss from the
sale of the real estate is reflected in the pro forma statements of
operations.
