STATUS OF SERIES 4 OFFERING
As of the date hereof, Series 4 has received subscriptions in the amount of
$1,518,000 (1,519 Units), of which $64,500 is represented by Promissory Notes.
LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INVESTMENTS
Included herein is a discussion of three Local Limited Partnership
Interests identified for acquisition by Series 4. The Apartment Complexes owned
by these Local Limited Partnerships are located in three states and are being
developed and constructed by three different development teams. Each of the
Apartment Complexes has received a reservation of Low Income Housing Credits.
While the Fund Manager believes that Series 4 is reasonably likely to acquire an
interest in each of these Local Limited Partnerships, Series 4 may not do so as
a result of the failure by a Local Limited Partnership to satisfy one or more
conditions precedent to the payment of each installment payment, the inability
of Series 4 to raise additional capital necessary to complete the purchase of
the Local Limited Partnership Interests identified herein, the purchase of Local
Limited Partnership Interests other than those identified herein, or other
factors. Moreover, the terms of any acquisition may differ from those as
described. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the ability of Series 4 to
acquire an investment in all these Local Limited Partnerships on the indicated
terms in deciding whether to invest in Series 4.
Series 4 expects to become a limited partner in Crescent City Apartments, a
California limited partnership ("CRESCENT CITY"); Oak Forest Apartments I, L.P.,
a Michigan limited partnership ("OAK FOREST"); and OGALLALLA APARTMENTS I, L.P.,
a Nebraska limited partnership ("OGALLALLA").
CRESCENT CITY owns The Surf Apartments in Crescent City, California; OAK
FOREST owns the Oak Forest Apartments in Wyoming, Michigan; OGALLALLA owns the
Ogallalla Apartments in Ogallalla, Nebraska.
