Note 1 - General
Independence Tax Credit Plus L.P. IV (a Delaware limited partnership) (the
"Partnership") was organized on February 22, 1995, and commenced the public
offering on July 6, 1995. The general partner of the Partnership is Related
Independence L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (the "General
Partner").
The Partnership's business is to invest in other partnerships ("Local
Partnerships", "subsidiaries" or "subsidiary partnerships") owning apartment
complexes that are eligible for the low-income housing tax credit ("Housing Tax
Credit") enacted in the Tax Reform Act of 1986, some of which complexes may also
be eligible for the historic rehabilitation tax credit ("Historic Tax Credit";
together with Housing Tax Credits, "Tax Credits").
As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership has acquired a limited partnership
interest in ten subsidiary partnerships. The Partnership anticipates acquiring
limited partnership interests in additional subsidiary partnerships in the
future. The Partnership's investment in each Local Partnership represents from
95% to 99.89% with one Local Partnership at 58.12% of the partnership interests
in the Local Partnership. Through the rights of the Partnership and/or an
affiliate of the General Partner, which affiliate has a contractual obligation
to act on behalf of the Partnership, to remove the general partner of the
subsidiary partnerships and to approve certain major operating and financial
decisions, the Partnership has a controlling financial interest in the
subsidiary partnership.
For financial reporting purposes, the Partnership's fiscal quarter ends
September 30. All subsidiaries have fiscal quarters ending June 30. Accounts of
the subsidiaries have been adjusted for intercompany transactions from July 1
through September 30. The Partnership's fiscal quarter ends September 30 in
order to allow adequate time for the subsidiaries financial statements to be
prepared and consolidated.
All intercompany accounts and transactions with the subsidiary partnerships have
been eliminated in consolidation.

Increases (decreases) in the capitalization of consolidated subsidiaries
attributable to minority interest arise from cash contributions from and cash
distributions to the minority interest partners.
Losses attributable to minority interests which exceed the minority interests'
investment in a subsidiary have been charged to the Partnership. Such losses
aggregated approximately $0 and $7,000 and $0 and $78,000 for the three and six
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Partnership's
investment in each subsidiary is equal to the respective subsidiary's partners'
equity less minority interest capital, if any. In consolidation, all subsidiary
partnership losses are included in the Partnership's capital account except for
losses allocated to minority interest capital.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been omitted or condensed. These condensed financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended March 31,
1998.
The books and records of the Partnership are maintained on the accrual basis of
accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In the
opinion of the General Partner of the Partnership, the accompanying unaudited
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Partnership as of September 30, 1998, the results of operations for the three
and six months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 and cash flows for the six
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. However, the operating results for the
six months ended September 30, 1998 may not be indicative of the results for the
year.

(a) The General Partner is entitled to receive a partnership management fee,
after payment of all Partnership expenses, which together with the annual local
administrative fees will not exceed a maximum of 0.5% per annum of invested
assets (as defined in the Partnership Agreement), for administering the affairs
of the Partnership. Subject to the foregoing limitation, the partnership
management fee will be determined by the General Partner in its sole discretion
based upon its review of the Partnership's investments. Unpaid partnership
management fees for any year will be accrued without interest and will be
payable from working capital reserves or to the extent of available funds after
the Partnership has made distributions to the limited partners of sale or
refinancing proceeds equal to their original capital contributions plus a 10%
priority return thereon (to the extent not theretofore paid out of cash flow).
Partnership management fees owed to the General Partner amounting to
approximately $307,000 and $269,000 were accrued and unpaid as of September 30,
1998 and March 31, 1998, respectively.
(b) The Partnership reimburses the General Partner and its affiliates for actual
Partnership operating expenses incurred by the General Partner and its
affiliates on the Partnership's behalf. The amount of reimbursement from the
Partnership is limited by the provisions of the Partnership Agreement. Another
affiliate of the General Partner performs asset monitoring for the Partnership.
These service include site visits and evaluations of the subsidiary
partnerships' performance.
(c) Property management fees incurred by the Local Partnerships amounted to
$41,283 and $20,492 and $72,704 and $40,099 for the three and six months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Of these fees $6,777 and $8,706 and
$13,721 and $16,353 were incurred to affiliates of the subsidiary partnerships'
general partners.
(d) Independence SLP IV L.P., a special limited partner of the subsidiary
partnerships, is entitled to receive a local administrative fee of up to $5,000
per year from each subsidiary partnership.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership's primary source of funds include (i) interest earned on Gross
Proceeds which are invested in tax-exempt money market instruments pending
acquisition of and final payments to Local Partnerships and (ii) working capital
reserve and interest earned thereon. All these sources of funds are available to
meet obligations of the Partnership.
As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership has invested approximately $29,279,000
(including approximately $1,161,000 classified as a loan repayable from
sale/refinancing proceeds in accordance with the Contribution Agreement and not
including acquisition fees of approximately $1,771,000) of net proceeds in ten
Local Partnerships of which approximately $10,267,000 remains to be paid to the
Local Partnerships (including approximately $2,313,000 being held in escrow) as
certain benchmarks, such as occupancy level, must be attained prior to the
release of the funds. One Local Partnership was acquired during the six months
ended September 30, 1998 for a purchase price of approximately $1,889,000 of
which approximately $283,000 remains to be paid. The Partnership has
approximately $7,167,000 available for future investments. During the six months
ended September 30, 1998, approximately $4,874,000 was paid to Local
Partnerships (none of which was released from escrow). The Partnership will be
acquiring additional properties, and the Partnership may be required to fund
potential purchase price adjustments based on tax credit adjustor clauses. There
were no purchase price adjustments during the six months ended September 30,
1998.
For the six months ended September 30, 1998, cash and cash equivalents of the
Partnership and its ten consolidated Local Partnerships increased approximately
$501,000 primarily due to cash provided by operating activities ($281,000), a
decrease in investments available for sale ($5,550,000) and net proceeds from
mortgage and construction loans ($2,261,000) which exceeded an increase in
property and equipment ($1,674,000), an increase in construction in progress
($4,663,000), a net decrease in due to local general partners and affiliates
relating to investing activities ($178,000) and net repayments of mortgage and
construction loans ($1,082,000). Included in the adjustments to reconcile the
net loss to cash provided by operations is depreciation and amortization of
approximately $501,000.
-11-
<PAGE>
A working capital reserve of approximately $1,146,000 (2.5% of gross equity) has
been established from the Partnership's funds available for investment, which
includes amounts which may be required for potential purchase price adjustments
based on tax credit adjustor clauses. At September 30, 1998 and March 31, 1998,
none of this reserve was used. The General Partner believes that these reserves,
plus any cash distributions received from the operations of the Local
Partnerships, will be sufficient to fund the Partnership's ongoing operations
for the foreseeable future. As of September 30, 1998 and 1997, there has been no
cash distributions from the Local Partnerships. Management anticipates receiving
distributions in the future, although not to a level sufficient to permit
providing cash distributions to the BACs holders.
The Partnership has negotiated Development Deficit Guarantees with the
development stage Local Partnerships in which it has invested. The Local General
Partners and/or their affiliates have agreed to fund development deficits
through the breakeven dates of each of the ten Local Partnerships.
The Partnership has negotiated Operating Deficit Guaranty Agreements with the
development stage Local Partnerships by which the general partners of such Local
Partnerships and/or their affiliates have agreed to fund operating deficits for
a specified period of time. The terms of the Operating Deficit Guaranty
Agreements vary for each of these Local Partnerships, with maximum dollar
amounts to be funded for a specified period of time, generally seven years,
commencing on the break-even date. The gross amount of the Operating Deficit
Guarantees aggregates approximately 2,665,000 as of September 30, 1998.
The Partnership has also negotiated a Rent-Up Guaranty Agreement with one Local
Partnership, in which the Local General Partner agrees to pay liquidated damages
if predetermined occupancy rates are not achieved.
The Development Deficit, Operating Deficit and the Rent-Up Guaranty Agreements
were negotiated to protect the Partnership's interest in the Local Partnerships
and to provide incentive to the Local General Partners to generate positive cash
flow.
The Partnership has invested or committed for investment approximately 80% of
the net proceeds available for investment in ten Local Partnerships, of which
two commenced to generate tax credits in 1996, three have commenced to generate
tax credits in
-12-
<PAGE>
1997 and five are anticipated to commence to generate tax credits in 1998.
Management has been in contact with the one Local Partnership in the southeast
region and does not anticipate any significant increase to repairs and
maintenance due to the effect of Hurricane Georges on the portfolio.
Management is not aware of any trends or events, commitments or uncertainties,
which have not otherwise been disclosed that will or are likely to impact
liquidity in a material way. Management believes the only impact would be from
laws that have not yet been adopted. The portfolio will be diversified by the
location of the properties around the United States so that if one area of the
country is experiencing downturns in the economy, the remaining properties in
the portfolio may be experiencing upswings. However the geographic
diversification of the portfolio may not protect against a general downturn in
the national economy. The tax credits will be attached to the project for a
period of ten years, and will be transferable with the property during the
remainder of such ten-year period. If the General Partner determined that a sale
of a property is warranted, the remaining tax credits would transfer to the new
owner, thereby adding value to the property on the market, which are not
included in the financial statement carrying amount.
Results of Operations
As of September 30, 1998 and 1997, the Partnership had acquired an interest in
ten and six Local Partnerships, respectively, all of which were consolidated at
September 30, 1998 and 1997. The Partnership intends to utilize the net proceeds
of the offering to acquire additional interests in Local Partnerships.
The Partnership's results of operations for the three and six months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997 consisted primarily of (1) approximately $149,000
and $267,000 and $335,000 and $543,000, respectively, of tax-exempt interest
income earned on funds not currently invested in Local Partnerships and (2) the
results of the Partnership's investment in nine of ten and three of six
consolidated Local Partnerships, respectively.
For the three and six months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to 1997,
rental income and all categories of expenses increased except taxes and the
results of operations are not comparable due to the acquisition, construction
and rent up of properties, and are not reflective of future operations of the
Partnership
-13-
<PAGE>
due to uncompleted property construction, rent up of properties and
the continued utilization of the net proceeds of the Offering to invest in Local
Partnerships. In addition, interest income will decrease in future periods since
a substantial portion of the proceeds from the Offering will be included in or
released to Local Partnerships. Other income decreased approximately $56,000 and
$138,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to
the corresponding periods in 1997 primarily due to a decrease in interest income
as a result of the acquisition of and the release of proceeds to the Local
Partnerships. Taxes decreased approximately $39,000 and $13,000 for the three
and six months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the corresponding periods
in 1997 primarily due to the reduction of city taxes resulting from low income
housing status at one Local Partnership.
For the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, zero and zero of the
Partnership's ten and six consolidated properties, respectively, completed
construction and were in various stages of rent up. In addition, three and one
of the properties, respectively, had completed construction in a previous fiscal
quarter, but were in various stages of rent up for the three months. Also, for
the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, three and two of the
properties had completed construction and were rented up in a previous fiscal
quarter. For the six months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, three and three
of the Partnership's ten and six consolidated properties, respectively, had
completed construction in a previous fiscal year, but were in various stages of
rent up for the six months. In addition three and two of the properties,
respectively, had completed construction and were rented up in a previous fiscal
year. As of the end of the six months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, four
and three of the Partnership's ten and six consolidated properties,
respectively, were still under construction and three and four of the
properties, respectively, had construction loans with commitments for permanent
financing.
Year 2000 Compliance
The Partnership utilizes the computer services of an affiliate of the General
Partner. The affiliate of the General Partner is in the process of upgrading its
computer information systems to be year 2000 compliant and beyond. The Year 2000
compliance issue concerns the inability of a computerized system to accurately
record dates after 1999. The affiliate of the General Partner recently underwent
a conversion of its financial systems applications and is in the process of
upgrading and testing the in house software and hard-

ware inventory. The workstations that experienced problems from this process
were corrected with an upgrade patch. The affiliate of the General Partner has
incurred costs of approximately $1,000,000 to date and estimates the total costs
to be approximately $2,000,000. These costs are not being charged to the
Partnership. In regard to third parties, the Partnership's General Partner is in
the process of evaluating the potential adverse impact that could result from
the failure of material service providers to be year 2000 compliant. A detailed
survey and assessment of third party readiness will be sent to material third
parties in the fourth quarter of 1998. The results of the surveys will be
compiled in early 1999. No estimate can be made at this time as to the impact of
the readiness of such third parties. The Partnership's General Partner plans to
have these issues fully assessed by early 1999, at which time the risks
will be addressed and a contingency plan will be implemented if necessary.
