UNIT I.
Item 1. Business
Organization
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund III, L.P. ("the Partnership") is a California
Limited Partnership formed under the laws of the State of California on May 10,
1991. The Partnership was formed to acquire limited partnership interests in
other limited partnerships or limited liability companies ("Local Limited
Partnerships") which own multifamily apartment complexes that are eligible for
low-income housing federal and, in some cases, California income tax credits
(the "Low Income Housing Credit").
The general partner of the Partnership is WNC Tax Credit Partners, L.P. ("TCP"
or the "General Partner"). The general partners of TCP are WNC & Associates,
Inc. ("Associates") and Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr. Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr., through
the Cooper Revocable Trust, owns 66.8% of the outstanding stock of Associates.
John B. Lester, Jr. was the original limited partner of the Partnership and
owns, through the Lester Family Trust, 28.6% of the outstanding stock of
Associates. Wilfred N. Cooper, Jr., President of Associates, owns 2.1% of the
outstanding stock of Associates. The business of the Partnership is conducted
primarily through Associates, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.
Pursuant to a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on January 2, 1992, the Partnership commenced a public offering of
15,000 Units of Limited Partnership Interest ("Units") at a price of $1,000 per
Unit. As of the close of the public offering on September 30, 1993, a total of
15,000 Units representing $15,000,000 had been sold. Holders of Units are
referred to herein as "Limited Partners."
Description of Business
The Partnership's principal business objective is to provide its Limited
Partners with Low Income Housing Credits. The Partnership's principal business
therefore consists of investing as a limited partner or non-managing member in
Local Limited Partnerships each of which will own and operate a multi-family
housing complex (the "Housing Complex") which will qualify for the Low Income
Housing Credit. In general, under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code, an
owner of low-income housing can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used
to reduce Federal taxes otherwise due in each year of a ten-year period. In
general, under Section 17058 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, an
owner of low-income housing can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used
against California taxes otherwise due in each year of a four-year period. The
Housing Complex is subject to a fifteen-year compliance period (the "Compliance
Period"), and under state law may have to be maintained as low income housing
for 30 or more years.
In general, in order to avoid recapture of Low Income Housing Credits, the
Partnership does not expect that it will dispose of its interests in Local
Limited Partnerships ("Local Limited Partnership Interests") or approve the sale
by any Local Limited Partnership of its Housing Complex prior to the end of the
applicable Compliance Period. Because of (i) the nature of the Housing
Complexes, (ii) the difficulty of predicting the resale market for low-income
housing 15 or more years in the future, and (iii) the ability of government
lenders to disapprove of transfer, it is not possible at this time to predict
whether the liquidation of the Partnership's assets and the disposition of the
proceeds, if any, in accordance with the Partnership's Agreement of Limited
Partnership, as amended by Supplements thereto (the "Partnership Agreement"),
will be able to be accomplished promptly at the end of the 15-year period. If a
Local Limited Partnership is unable to sell its Housing Complex, it is
anticipated that the local general partner ("Local General Partner") will either
continue to operate such Housing Complex or take such other actions as the Local
General Partner believes to be in the best interest of the Local Limited
Partnership. Notwithstanding the preceding, circumstances beyond the control of
the General Partner or the Local General Partners may occur during the
Compliance Period, which would require the Partnership to approve the
disposition of a Housing Complex prior to the end thereof, possibly resulting in
recapture of Low Income Housing Credits.
3
<PAGE>
As of March 31, 2000, the Partnership had invested in forty-eight Local Limited
Partnerships. Each of these Local Limited Partnerships owns a Housing Complex
that is eligible for the federal Low Income Housing Credit. Certain Local
Limited Partnerships may also benefit from government programs promoting low- or
moderate-income housing.
The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low-income housing and to the
management and ownership of multi-unit residential real estate. Some of these
risks are that the Low Income Housing Credit could be recaptured and that
neither the Partnership's investments nor the Housing Complexes owned by the
Local Limited Partnerships will be readily marketable. To the extent the Housing
Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may be
subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants
for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases; limitations
on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of Housing Complexes;
limitations on transfers of Local Limited Partnership Interests; limitations on
removal of Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and possible
changes in applicable regulations. The Housing Complexes are subject to mortgage
indebtedness. If a Local Limited Partnership does not make its mortgage
payments, the lender could foreclose resulting in a loss of the Housing Complex
and Low Income Housing Credits. As a limited partner or non-managing member of
the Local Limited Partnerships, the Partnership will have very limited rights
with respect to management of the Local Limited Partnerships, and will rely
totally on the general partners or managing members of the Local Limited
Partnerships for management of the Local Limited Partnerships. The value of the
Partnership's investments will be subject to changes in national and local
economic conditions, including unemployment conditions, which could adversely
impact vacancy levels, rental payment defaults and operating expenses. This, in
turn, could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the Housing
Complexes and the Partnership. In addition, each Local Limited Partnership is
subject to risks relating to environmental hazards and natural disasters, which
might be uninsurable. Because the Partnership's operations will depend on these
and other factors beyond the control of the General Partner and the Local
General Partners, there can be no assurance that the anticipated Low Income
Housing Credits will be available to Limited Partners.
In addition, Limited Partners are subject to risks in that the rules governing
the Low Income Housing Credit are complicated, and the use of credits can be
limited. The only material benefit from an investment in Units may be the Low
Income Housing Credits. There are limits on the transferability of Units, and it
is unlikely that a market for Units will develop. All Partnership management
decisions are made by the General Partner.
As a limited partner or non-managing member, the Partnership's liability for
obligations of each Local Limited Partnership is limited to its investment. The
Local General Partners of each Local Limited Partnership retain responsibility
for developing, constructing, maintaining, operating and managing the Housing
Complexes.
Item 2. Properties
Through its investments in Local Limited Partnerships, the Partnership holds
limited partnership interests in the Housing Complexes. The following table
reflects the status of the forty-eight Housing Complexes as of the dates and for
the periods indicated:

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Financial Condition
The Partnership's assets at March 31, 2000 consisted primarily of $330,386 in
cash and aggregate investments in the forty-eight Local Limited Partnerships of
$3,533,290. Liabilities at March 31, 2000 primarily consisted of $1,581,300 of
accrued annual management fees due to the General Partner.
Results of Operations
Year Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1998. The
Partnership's net loss for the year ended March 31, 2000 was $(1,314,000),
reflecting a decrease of $95,000 from the net loss experienced for the year
ended December 31, 1998. The decline in net loss is primarily due to equity in
losses from limited partnerships which declined by $88,000 to $(960,000) for the
year ended March 31, 2000 from $(1,048,000) for the year ended December 31,
1998. This decrease was a result of the Partnership not recognizing certain
losses of the Local Limited Partnerships. The investments in such Local Limited
Partnerships had reached $0 at March 31, 2000. Since the Partnership's liability
with respect to its investments is limited, losses in excess of investment are
not recognized. In addition, as the investment in such Local Limited
Partnerships had reached $0, distributions received after the investment balance
reached $0 were recognized as distribution income, which resulted in an increase
in distribution income of $4,000.
Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998.
The Partnership's net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was
$(328,000), reflecting a decrease of $51,000 from the net loss experienced for
the three months ended March 31, 1998. The decline in net loss is primarily due
to equity in losses of limited partnerships which declined by $62,000 to
$(231,000) for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $(293,000) for the
three months ended March 31, 1998. This decrease was a result of the Partnership
not recognizing certain losses of the Local Limited Partnerships. The
investments in such Local Limited Partnerships reached $0 during the period from
March 31, 1998 to March 31, 1999. Since the Partnership's liability with respect
to its investments is limited, losses in excess of investment are not
recognized. The reduction in equity losses recognized was partially offset by an
increase in loss from operations of $11,000 to $(97,000) for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 from $(86,000) for the three months ended March 31, 1998,
due to a comparable increase in office expense allocations, partially offset by
an increase in interest income.
Year Ended December 31, 1998 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1997. The
Partnership's net loss for 1998 was $(1,409,000), reflecting a decrease of
$178,000 from the net loss experienced in 1997. The decline in net loss is
primarily due to equity in losses from limited partnerships which declined to
$(1,048,000) in 1998 from $(1,230,000) in 1997. This decrease was a result of
the Partnership not recognizing certain losses of the Local Limited
Partnerships. The investments in such Local Limited Partnerships reached $0
during 1998. Since the Partnership's liability with respect to its investments
is limited, losses in excess of investment are not recognized. The reduction in
equity losses recognized was partially offset by an increase in loss from
operations of $4,000 in 1998 to $(361,000), from $(357,000) in 1997, due to a
comparable increase in office expense allocations.
Cash Flows
Year Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1998. Net cash
used during the year ended March 31, 2000 was $(5,000), compared to net cash
increase for the year ended December 31, 1998 of $5,000. The change was due
primarily to an increase in cash paid to the General Partner for annual
management fees of $10,000.
Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998.
Net cash used during the three months ended March 31,1999 was $(3,000) compared
to a net cash increase of $11,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The
change was due primarily to an increase in operating costs paid to third
parties.
15
<PAGE>
Year Ended December 31, 1998 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1997. Net
increase in cash in 1998 was $5,000, compared to net decrease in cash in 1997 of
$(115,000). The change was due primarily to a decrease in operating costs paid
to third parties partially offset by a decline in distributions from Local
Limited Partnerships.
During the year ended March 31, 2000, the three months ended March 31, 1999 and
the year ended December 31, 1998, accrued payables, which consist primarily of
related party management fees due to the General Partner, increased by $286,000,
$70,000 and $302,000, respectively. The General Partner does not anticipate that
these accrued fees will be paid in full until such time as capital reserves are
in excess of future foreseeable working capital requirements of the Partnership.
The Partnership expects its future cash flows, together with its net available
assets at March 31, 2000, to be sufficient to meet all currently foreseeable
future cash requirements.
Impact of Year 2000
WNC & Associates, Inc.
Status of Readiness
Information Technology (IT) Systems. The Partnership relies on the IT systems of
WNC, its ultimate general partner. IT systems include computer hardware and
software used to produce financial reports and tax return information. This
information is then used to generate reports to investors and regulatory
agencies, including the Internal Revenue Service and the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The IT systems of WNC are year 2000 compliant.
Non-IT Systems. The Partnership also relies on the non-IT systems of WNC. Non-IT
systems include machinery and equipment such as telephones, voice mail and
electronic postage equipment. The non-IT systems of WNC are year 2000 compliant.
Service Providers. WNC also relies on the IT and non-IT systems of service
providers. Service providers include utility companies, financial institutions,
telecommunications carriers, municipalities, and other outside vendors. WNC has
obtained verbal assurances from its material service providers (electrical power
provider, financial institutions and telecommunications carriers) that their IT
and non-IT systems are year 2000 compliant. To date, WNC has not encountered
significant year 2000 issues or business disruptions from its service providers.
Costs to Address Year 2000 Issues
The cost to address year 2000 issues for WNC has been less than $25,000.
Risk of Year 2000 Issues
Although WNC has encountered no significant year 2000 issues to date, the most
reasonable and likely result from non-year 2000 compliance of systems of the
service providers noted above would be the disruption of normal business
operations for WNC. This disruption could, in turn, lead to delays in performing
reporting and fiduciary responsibilities on behalf of the Partnership. The worst
case scenario would be the replacement of a service provider. These delays would
likely be temporary and would likely not have a material effect on the
Partnership or WNC.

<PAGE>
Local Limited Partnerships
Status of Readiness
To date, WNC and the Partnership have encountered no significant year 2000
issues with respect to the Local Limited Partnerships.
Costs to Address Year 2000 Issues
There has been and will be no cost to the Partnership as a result of assessing
year 2000 issues for the Local Limited Partnerships. Although no significant
year 2000 issues have been encountered to date, the cost to deal with potential
year 2000 issues of the Local Limited Partnerships cannot be estimated at this
time.
Risk of Year 2000 Issues
Although no significant year 2000 issues have been encountered to date, there
can be no assurance that the Partnership will be unaffected by year 2000 issues.
The most reasonable and likely result from non-year 2000 compliance will be the
disruption of normal business operations for the Local Limited Partnerships,
including but not limited to the possible failure to properly collect rents and
meet their obligations in a timely manner. This disruption would, in turn, lead
to delays by the Local Limited Partnerships in performing reporting and
fiduciary responsibilities on behalf of the Partnership. The worst-case scenario
would include the initiation of foreclosure proceedings on the property by
mortgage debt holders. Under these circumstances, WNC or its affiliates will
take actions necessary to minimize the risk of foreclosure, including the
removal and replacement of a Local General Partner by the Partnership. These
delays would likely be temporary and would likely not have a material effect on
the Partnership or WNC.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund III, L.P.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund
III, L.P. (a California Limited Partnership) (the "Partnership") as of March 31,
2000 and 1999, and December 31, 1998, and the related statements of operations,
partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2000, the
three months ended March 31, 1999 and the year ended December 31, 1998. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. A significant portion of the financial statements of the limited
partnerships in which the Partnership is a limited partner were audited by other
auditors whose reports have been furnished to us. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the Partnership accounts for its investments in limited
partnerships using the equity method. The portion of the Partnership's
investment in limited partnerships audited by other auditors represented 59%,
62% and 64% of the total assets of the Partnership at March 31, 2000 and 1999,
and December 31, 1998, respectively. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included in the financial statements for the limited partnerships which
were audited by others, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund III, L.P. (a California
Limited Partnership) as of March 31, 2000 and 1999, and December 31, 1998, and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended March 31,
2000, the three months ended March 31, 1999 and the year ended December 31,
1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

partner. These investments, as discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements,
are accounted for by the equity method. The investments in these limited
partnerships represented 95% of the total assets of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund
III, L.P. at December 31, 1997. Substantially all of the financial statements of
the limited partnerships were audited by other auditors whose reports have been
furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included

auditors.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.

WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND III, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For The Year Ended March 31, 2000,
For The Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 and
For The Years Ended December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund III, L.P., a California Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership"), was formed on May 10, 1991 under the laws of the State of
California. The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in other limited
partnerships (the "Local Limited Partnerships") which own and operate
multi-family housing complexes (the "Housing Complex") that are eligible for low
income housing credits. The local general partners (the "Local General
Partners") of each Local Limited Partnership retain responsibility for
maintaining, operating and managing the Housing Complex.
The general partner is WNC Tax Credit Partners, L.P. (the "General Partner"), a
California limited partnership. WNC & Associates, Inc. ("WNC") and Wilfred N.
Cooper, Sr. are the general partners of the General Partner. Wilfred N. Cooper,
Sr., through the Cooper Revocable Trust owns 66.8% of the outstanding stock of
WNC. John B. Lester was the original limited partner of the Partnership and owns
28.6% of the outstanding stock of WNC. Wilfred N. Cooper, Jr., President of WNC,
owns 2.1% of the outstanding stock of WNC.
The Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2050
unless terminated prior to that date pursuant to the partnership agreement or
law.
The financial statements include only activity relating to the business of the
Partnership, and do not give effect to any assets that the partners may have
outside of their interests in the Partnership, or to any obligations, including
income taxes, of the partners.
The partnership agreement authorized the sale of up to 15,000 units at $1,000
per Unit ("Units"). The offering of Units concluded on September 30, 1993 at
which time 15,000 Units representing subscriptions in the amount of $15,000,000
had been accepted. The General Partner has a 1% interest in operating profits
and losses, taxable income and losses, cash available for distribution from the
Partnership and tax credits. The limited partners will be allocated the
remaining 99% of these items in proportion to their respective investments.
After the limited partners have received proceeds from a sale or refinancing
equal to their capital contributions and their return on investment (as defined
in the Partnership Agreement) and the General Partner has received proceeds
equal to its capital contribution and a subordinated disposition fee (as
described in Note 3) from the remainder, any additional sale or refinancing
proceeds will be distributed 90% to the limited partners (in proportion to their
respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner.
Change in Reporting Year End
In 1999, the Partnership elected to change its year end for financial reporting
purposes from December 31 to March 31. All financial information reflected in
the financial statements and related footnotes has been adjusted for this change
in year end except for the combined condensed financial information relating to
the Local Limited Partnerships included in Note 2.

For The Years Ended December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
Risks and Uncertainties
The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low-income housing and to the
management and ownership of multi-unit residential real estate. Some of these
risks are that the low income housing credit could be recaptured and that
neither the Partnership's investments nor the Housing Complexes owned by the
Local Limited Partnerships will be readily marketable. To the extent the Housing
Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may be
subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants
for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases; limitations
on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of Housing Complexes;
limitations on transfers of Local Limited Partnership Interests; limitations on
removal of Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and possible
changes in applicable regulations. The Housing Complexes are or will be subject
to mortgage indebtedness. If a Local Limited Partnership does not make its
mortgage payments, the lender could foreclose resulting in a loss of the Housing
Complex and low-income housing credits. As a limited partner of the Local
Limited Partnerships, the Partnership will have very limited rights with respect
to management of the Local Limited Partnerships, and will rely totally on the
Local General Partners of the Local Limited Partnerships for management of the
Local Limited Partnerships. The value of the Partnership's investments will be
subject to changes in national and local economic conditions, including
unemployment conditions, which could adversely impact vacancy levels, rental
payment defaults and operating expenses. This, in turn, could substantially
increase the risk of operating losses for the Housing Complexes and the
Partnership. In addition, each Limited Local Partnership is subject to risks
relating to environmental hazards and natural disasters, which might be
uninsurable. Because the Partnership's operations will depend on these and other
factors beyond the control of the General Partner and the Local General
Partners, there can be no assurance that the anticipated low income housing
credits will be available to Limited Partners.
In addition, Limited Partners are subject to risks in that the rules governing
the low income housing credit are complicated, and the use of credits can be
limited. The only material benefit from an investment in Units may be the low
income housing credits. There are limits on the transferability of Units, and it
is unlikely that a market for Units will develop. All management decisions will
be made by the General Partner.
Method of Accounting for Investments in Limited Partnerships
The Partnership accounts for its investments in limited partnerships using the
equity method of accounting, whereby the Partnership adjusts its investment
balance for its share of the Local Limited Partnership's results of operations
and for any distributions received. The accounting policies of the Local Limited
Partnership's are consistent with those of the Partnership. Costs incurred by
the Partnership in acquiring the investments are capitalized as part of the
investment account and are being amortized over 30 years (See Note 2).
Losses from limited partnerships for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997
have been recorded by the Partnership based on reported results provided by the
Local Limited Partnerships. Losses from limited partnerships for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 have been estimated by management of the
Partnership. Losses from Local Limited Partnerships for the year ended March 31,
2000 have been recorded by the Partnership based on nine months of reported
results provided by the Local Limited Partnerships and on three months of
results estimated by management at the Partnership. Losses from Local Limited
Partnerships allocated to the Partnership are not recognized to the extent that
the investment balance would be adjusted below zero.

For The Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 and
For The Years Ended December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
Offering Expenses
Offering expenses consist of underwriting commissions, legal fees, printing,
filing and recordation fees, and other costs incurred with selling limited
partnership interests in the Partnership. The General Partner is obligated to
pay all offering and organization costs in excess of 15% (including sales
commissions) of the total offering proceeds. Offering expenses are reflected as
a reduction of partners' capital and amounted to $2,250,000 at the end of all
periods presented.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with remaining
maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of
March 31, 2000 and 1999, and December 31, 1998, the Partnership had cash
equivalents of $11,599, $11,057 and $10,957, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
At March 31, 2000, the Partnership has maintained cash balances at a certain
financial institution in excess of the maximum federally insured amounts.
Net Loss Per Limited Partner Unit
Net loss per limited partnership unit is calculated pursuant to Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Net loss per unit
includes no dilution and is computed by dividing loss available to limited
partners by the weighted average number of units outstanding during the period.
Calculation of diluted net loss per unit is not required.
Reporting Comprehensive Income
In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. This statement establishes
standards for reporting the components of comprehensive income and requires that
all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income be included in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. Comprehensive
income includes net income as well as certain items that are reported directly
within a separate component of partners' equity and bypass net income. The
Partnership adopted the provisions of this statement in 1998. For the periods
presented, the Partnership has no elements of other comprehensive income, as
defined by SFAS No. 130.

For The Years Ended December 31, 1998 and 1997
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
As of the periods presented, the Partnership has acquired limited partnership
interests in 48 Local Limited Partnerships, each of which owns one Housing
Complex consisting of an aggregate of 1,685 apartment units. The respective
general partners of the Local Limited Partnerships manage the day-to-day
operations of the entities. Significant Local Limited Partnership business
decisions require approval from the Partnership. The Partnership, as a limited
partner, is generally entitled to 99%, as specified in the Local Limited
Partnership agreements, of the operating profits and losses, taxable income and
losses and tax credits of the Local Limited Partnerships.
The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships as reflected in the
balance sheets at March 31, 2000 and 1999, are approximately $1,929,000 and
$1,352,000, respectively, greater than the Partnership's combined equity at the
preceding December 31 as shown in the Local Limited Partnerships' combined
financial statements presented below. This difference is primarily due to
unrecorded losses, as discussed below, acquisition, selection, and other costs
related to the acquisition of the investments which have been capitalized in the
Partnership's investment account and to capital contributions payable to the
limited partnerships which were netted against partner capital in the Local
Limited Partnerships' financial statements. The Partnership's investment is also
lower than the Partnership's equity as shown in the Local Limited Partnership's
combined financial statements due to the losses recorded by the Partnership for
the three month period ended March 31.
Equity in losses of the Local Limited Partnerships is recognized in the
financial statements until the related investment account is reduced to a zero
balance. Losses incurred after the investment account is reduced to zero are not
recognized. If the Local Limited Partnerships report net income in future years,
the Partnership will resume applying the equity method only after its share of
such net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the
period(s) the equity method was suspended.
Distributions received by limited partners are accounted for as a reduction of
the investment balance. Distributions received after the investment has reached
zero are recognized as income.
At March 31, 2000, the investment accounts in certain Local Limited Partnerships
have reached a zero balance. Consequently, a portion of the Partnership's
estimate of its share of losses for the year ended March 31, 2000 and the three
months ended March 31, 1999 amounting to approximately $677,000 and $80,000,
respectively, have not been recognized. The Partnership's share of losses during
the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 amounting to approximately $197,000
and $157,000, respectively, have not been recognized. As of March 31, 2000, the
aggregate share of net losses not recognized by the Partnership amounted to
$1,111,000.
Following is a summary of the equity method activity of the investments in
limited partnerships for the periods presented:

Certain Local Limited Partnerships have incurred significant operating losses
and over 50% have working capital deficiencies. In the event these Local Limited
Partnerships continue to incur significant operating losses, additional capital
contributions by the Partnership and/or the Local General Partner may be
required to sustain the operations of such Local Limited Partnerships. If
additional capital contributions are not made when they are required, the
Partnership's investment in certain of such Local Limited Partnerships could be
impaired and the loss and recapture of the related tax credits could occur.
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership has paid or is
obligated to the General Partner or their affiliates for the following items:
Acquisition fees not to exceed 9% of the gross proceeds from the sale

presented, the Partnership incurred acquisition fees of $1,350,000.
Accumulated amortization of these capitalized costs was $306,370,
$261,374 and $250,125 as of March 31, 2000 and 1999, and December 31,
1998, respectively.
Reimbursement of costs incurred by the General Partner or an affiliate
in connection with the acquisition of Local Limited Partnerships.
These reimbursements have not exceeded 1.6% of the gross proceeds. As
of the end of all periods presented, the Partnership incurred
acquisition costs of $67,423, which have been included in investments
in limited partnerships. Accumulated amortization was $15,134, $12,882
and $12,319 for March 31, 2000 and 1999, and December 31, 1998,

compounded, "return" to the Limited Partners (including Low Income Housing
Credits) as a class on their adjusted capital contributions commencing for
each Limited Partner on the last day of the calendar quarter during which
the Limited Partner's capital contribution is received by the Partnership,

(ii) 6% for the balance of the Partnerships term. No disposition fees have
been paid.
(c) Operating Expenses. The Partnership reimbursed the General Partner or its

$23,000 during the year ended March 31, 2000, the three months ended March

time in accordance with their respective organizational documents, without
the consent or approval of the Limited Partners. In addition, the

and successor General Partners in certain circumstances.
First, with the consent of any other General Partners and a
majority-in-interest of the Limited Partners, any General Partner may
designate one or more persons to be successor or additional General
Partners. In addition, any General Partner may, without the consent of any
other General Partner or the Limited Partners, (I) substitute in its stead
as General Partner any entity which has, by merger, consolidation or
otherwise, acquired substantially all of its assets, stock or other
evidence of equity interest and continued its business, or (ii) cause to be
admitted to the Partnership an additional General Partner or Partners if it
