PART I
General Development of Business and Narrative Description of Business
American Tax Credit Properties II L.P. ("Registrant"), a Delaware limited partnership, was formed on October 26, 1988 to invest primarily in leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes (the "Property" or "Properties") that qualified for the low-income tax credit in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Low-income Tax Credit"), through the acquisition of limited partner equity interests in partnerships (the "Local Partnership" or "Local Partnerships") that are the owners of the Properties. Registrant invested in fifty such Local Partnerships, including one whose Property also qualified for the historic rehabilitation tax credit in accordance with Section 48(g) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit”). Registrant considers its activity to constitute a single industry segment.
Richman Tax Credit Properties II L.P. (the "General Partner"), a Delaware limited partnership, was formed on October 26, 1988 to act as the general partner of Registrant. The general partner of the General Partner is Richman Tax Credits Inc. ("Richman Tax Credits"), a Delaware corporation that is wholly-owned by Richard Paul Richman. Richman Tax Credits is an affiliate of The Richman Group, Inc. ("Richman Group"), a Delaware corporation founded by Richard Paul Richman in 1988.
The Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form S-11 was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on April 21, 1989 pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 under Registration Statement File No. 33-25337, and was declared effective on May 9, 1989. Reference is made to the prospectus dated May 10, 1989, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1 and Supplement No. 2 dated July 25, 1989 and September 18, 1989, respectively, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Prospectus"). Pursuant to Rule 12b-23 of the Commission's General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the description of Registrant's business set forth under the heading "Investment Objectives and Policies" at pages 47 through 70 of the Prospectus is incorporated herein by reference.
On June 14, 1989, Registrant commenced, through Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch"), the offering of up to 100,000 units of limited partnership interest ("Unit") at $1,000 per Unit to investors. On June 28, 1989, July 31, 1989 and September 22, 1989, the closings for 13,533, 20,560 and 21,653 Units, respectively, took place, amounting to aggregate limited partners’ capital contributions of $55,746,000.
Financial Information About Industry Segments
Registrant is engaged solely in the business of owning a limited partner interest in each of the Local Partnerships. A presentation of information regarding industry segments is not applicable and would not be material to an understanding of Registrant’s business taken as a whole. See Item 8 below for a summary of Registrant's operations.
Compliance with Environmental Protection Provisions
Registrant is not aware of any non-compliance by the Local Partnerships with respect to federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of material into the environment or otherwise relating to the pro-tection of the environment, and is not aware of any condition that would have a material effect on the capital expenditures or competitive position of Registrant.
Competition
Pursuant to Rule 12b-23 of the Commission's General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, the description of Registrant's competition, general risks, tax risks and partnership risks set forth under the heading "Risk Factors" at pages 20 through 33 of the Prospectus is incorporated herein by reference. See discussion below in Item 1A.
Employees of Registrant
Registrant employs no personnel and incurs no payroll costs. All management activities of Registrant are conducted by the General Partner. An affiliate of the General Partner employs individuals who perform the management activities of Registrant. This entity also performs similar services for other affiliates of the General Partner.
Risks Relating to Registrant’s Business and Industry
Properties owned by the Local Partnerships are subject to certain risks relating to the real estate industry in general that are outside of the control of the Local Partnerships or Registrant and that may have an adverse affect on Registrant’s investment in such Local Partnerships.
Registrant’s investment in the Local Partnerships is subject to the risks associated with multi-family rental property and real estate in general, including retail, commercial and residential real estate. Such risks are subject to change and not in the control of Registrant, including:
| · | adverse use of adjacent or neighborhood real estate; |
| · | regulated rents, which may adversely impact rent increases; |
| · | utility allowances, which may adversely impact rents charged to tenants from year to year in certain locations; |
| · | changes in the demand for or supply of competing properties; |
| · | changes in state or local tax rates and assessments; |
| · | increases in utility charges; |
| · | unexpected expenditures for repairs and maintenance; |
| · | discovery of previously undetected environmentally hazardous conditions; |
| · | costs associated with complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act; |
| · | uninsured losses relating to real property or excessively expensive premiums for insurance coverage; |
| · | changes in local economic conditions; and |
| · | changes in interest rates and the availability of financing. |
The occurrence of any of the above risks could have a negative impact on the operating results of such Properties and the respective Local Partnerships and, in turn, may render the sale or refinancing of the Properties difficult or unattractive, which could adversely affect Registrant’s investment in such Local Partnerships.
The modification or elimination of government rental subsidies on which the Local Partnerships rely would require the Local Partnerships to use existing funds or obtain additional funds to continue to operate the respective Properties. Because Registrant’s investments in the Local Partnerships are highly leveraged, it would be highly difficult to obtain such additional funds.
Virtually all of the Properties owned by the Local Partnerships have some form of a government funded rental subsidy, which affords the low-income tenants the ability to reside at the Properties. The Local Partnerships are extremely reliant on such subsidies. If the respective rental subsidy programs were to be materially modified or eliminated, the Local Partnerships’ rental revenue would likely be significantly reduced. To the extent that revenues are not sufficient to meet operating expenses and service the respective mortgages of the Properties, such Local Partnership would be required to use reserves and any other funds available to avoid foreclosure of the subject Property. Registrant’s investments in the Local Partnerships are highly leveraged, and there can be no assurance that additional funds would be available to any Local Partnership or Registrant, if needed. In addition, there can be no assurance that, when a Property is sold, the proceeds from a sale will be sufficient to pay the balance due on the mortgage loans or any other outstanding indebtedness to which the Local Partnership is subject.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors (continued) |
There is no guarantee that it will be possible to sell the Properties or, if possible, that Registrant would receive any proceeds from any such sale.
The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid Low-income Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the Low-income Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the "Compliance Period"). It is the General Partner’s intention to sell or assign Registrant’s interests in Local Partnerships subsequent to the expiration of the respective Compliance Periods. As of December 31, 2006, the Compliance Period of all of the Local Partnerships has expired. It is uncertain as to the amount, if any, that Registrant will receive with respect to each specific Property from any such sales and assignments. Moreover, the Properties may be subject to extended use provisions that provide for the Properties to maintain their low-income status beyond the Compliance Period (in certain circumstances, up to 50 years from when the Property is placed in service, but commonly 30 years from the date any such Property is placed in service). Such provisions may make it unattractive for potential purchasers of the Properties. Accordingly, any sale of a Property may happen well after the expiration of the Compliance Period or may be significantly discounted.
Tax Risks Associated With Low-income Housing and the Low-income Housing Tax Credit
The Local Partnerships may be required to continue to maintain the low-income nature of the Properties beyond the Compliance Period under agreements with state tax credit agencies.
In addition, certain of the Local Partnerships have entered into agreements with the relevant state tax credit agencies whereby the Local Partnerships must maintain the low-income nature of the Properties for a period which exceeds the Compliance Period, regardless of any sale of the Properties by the Local Partnerships after the Compliance Period.
Limited partners may not be able to use all of the carried forward Low-income Tax Credits.
While a limited exception is provided for Low-income Tax Credits in the case of individuals, tax losses and credits allocated to a limited partner who is an individual, trust, estate or personal service corporation generally may be used to reduce the limited partner’s tax liability only to the extent that such liability arises from passive activities. Therefore, tax losses and credits allocated to such a limited partner are not expected to be available to offset tax liabilities that arise from salaries, dividends and interest and other forms of income. In addition, Low-income Tax Credits cannot be used to offset alternative minimum tax. Accordingly, there is no guarantee that limited partners will be able to utilize all of the carried forward Low-income Tax Credits.
Risks Relating to Ownership of Units of Limited Partnership Interest of Registrant
There is no existing market for the Units.
There is no trading market for Units and there are no assurances that any market will develop. In addition, the Units may be transferred only if certain requirements are satisfied, including requirements that such transfer would not impair Registrant’s tax status for federal income tax purposes and would not be a violation of federal or state securities laws. Accordingly, limited partners may not be able to sell their Units promptly and bear the economic risk of their investment for an indefinite period of time.
Under certain circumstances, limited partners of Registrant may incur out-of-pocket tax costs.
At some point, Registrant’s operations (including the sale or refinancing of the Properties owned by the Local Partnerships) may generate less cash flow than taxable income, and the income, as well as the income taxes payable with respect to Registrant’s taxable income, may exceed cash flow available for distribution to the limited partners in such years. This may result in an out-of-pocket tax cost to the limited partners. In addition, a limited partner may experience taxable gain on disposition of Units or upon a disposition of the Local Partnership interests or of the Properties even though no cash is realized on the disposition; in such circumstances, the limited partners may experience an out-of-pocket tax cost.
Limited partners of Registrant may not receive a return of any portion of their original capital investment in Registrant.
To date, the limited partners of Registrant have not received a return of any portion of their original capital. Accordingly, the only benefit of this investment may be the Low-income Tax Credits and Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits.
Item 1B. | Unresolved Staff Comments |
Not applicable
The executive offices of Registrant and the General Partner are located at 340 Pemberwick Road, Greenwich, Connecticut 06831. Registrant does not own or lease any properties. Registrant pays no rent; all charges for leased space are borne by an affiliate of the General Partner.
Registrant's primary objective has been to provide Low-income Tax Credits to limited partners generally over a ten year period. The relevant state tax credit agency has allocated each of Registrant’s Local Partnerships an amount of Low-income Tax Credits, which are generally available for a ten year period from the year the Property is placed in service (the “Ten Year Credit Period”). The Ten Year Credit Period was substantially fully exhausted by the Local Partnerships as of December 31, 2001. See discussion above in Item 1A - Risk Factors regarding the Compliance Periods of the Local Partnerships. Also as noted above, certain of the Local Partnerships have entered into agreements with the relevant state tax credit agencies whereby the Local Partnerships must maintain the low-income nature of the Properties for a period which exceeds the Compliance Period, regardless of any sale of the Properties by the Local Partnerships after the Compliance Period. The Compliance Period of all of the Local Partnerships had expired as of December 31, 2006.
Although Registrant generally owns a 98.9%-99% limited partner interest ("Local Partnership Interest") in the Local Partnerships, Registrant and American Tax Credit Properties L.P. ("ATCP"), a Delaware limited partnership whose general partner is affiliated with the General Partner, together, in the aggregate, own a 99% Local Partnership Interest in Santa Juanita Limited Dividend Partnership L.P. ("Santa Juanita"); the ownership percentages of Registrant and ATCP of Santa Juanita are 64.36% and 34.64%, respectively. In addition, Registrant and American Tax Credit Properties III L.P. ("ATCP III"), a Delaware limited partnership and another affiliate, together, in the aggregate, own a 99% Local Partnership Interest in the following Local Partnerships:
| | Registrant | | ATCP III | |
Batesville Family, L.P. | | | 37.25 | % | | 61.75 | % |
Bruce Housing Associates, L.P. | | | 37.25 | | | 61.75 | |
Carrington Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership | | | 33.05 | | | 65.95 | |
Ivy Family, L.P. | | | 37.25 | | | 61.75 | |
Lawrence Road Properties, Ltd. | | | 37.25 | | | 61.75 | |
Mirador del Toa Limited Partnership | | | 39.94 | | | 59.06 | |
Purvis Heights Properties, L.P. | | | 37.25 | | | 61.75 | |
Queen Lane Investors | | | 50.50 | | | 48.50 | |
Many of the Local Partnerships receive rental subsidy payments, including payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (“Section 8”) (see descriptions of subsidies on pages 9 and 10). The subsidy agreements expire at various times. Since October 1997, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) has issued a series of directives related to project based Section 8 contracts that define owners’ notification responsibilities, advise owners of project based Section 8 properties of what their options are regarding the renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide guidance and procedures to owners, management agents, contract administrators and HUD staff concerning renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide policies and procedures on setting renewal rents and handling renewal rent adjustments and provide the requirements and procedures for opting-out of a Section 8 project based contract. Registrant cannot reasonably predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations, the outcome of which could result in a reduction in funds available for the various federal and state administered housing programs including the Section 8 program. Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income before debt service (“NOI”) and debt structure of any or all Local Partnerships currently receiving such subsidy or similar subsidies. Eleven Local Partnerships' Section 8 contracts, certain of which cover only certain rental units, are currently subject to renewal under applicable HUD guidelines. In addition, three Local Partnerships have entered into restructuring agreements, resulting in changes to both rent subsidy and mandatory debt service.

Market Information and Holders
There is no established public trading market for Registrant’s Units. Accordingly, accurate information as to the market value of a Unit at any given date is not available. The number of record holders of Units as of December 31, 2007 was approximately 2,600, holding an aggregate of 55,746 Units.
Merrill Lynch follows internal guidelines for providing estimated values of limited partnerships and other direct investments reported on client account statements. Pursuant to such guidelines, estimated values for limited partnership interests reported on Merrill Lynch client account statements (such as Registrant’s Units) are provided to Merrill Lynch by independent valuation services, whose estimated values are based on financial and other information available to them. In addition, Registrant may provide an estimate of value to Unit holders from time to time in Registrant's reports to limited partners. The estimated values provided by the independent services and Registrant, which may differ, are not market values and Unit holders may not be able to sell their Units or realize either amount upon a sale of their Units. Unit holders may not realize such estimated values upon the liquidation of Registrant.
Distributions
Registrant owns a limited partner interest in Local Partnerships that are the owners of Properties that are leveraged and receive government assistance in various forms of rental and debt service subsidies. The distribution of cash flow generated by the Local Partnerships may be restricted, as determined by each Local Partnership's financing and subsidy agreements. Accordingly, Registrant does not anticipate that it will provide significant cash distributions to its partners. There were no cash distributions to the partners during the years ended March 30, 2008 and 2007.
Low-income Tax Credits and Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits (together, the “Tax Credits”), which are subject to various limitations, may be used by partners to offset federal income tax liabilities. Registrant generated total Tax Credits from investments in Local Partnerships of approximately $1,499 per Unit, net of circumstances which have given rise to recapture. The Ten Year Credit Period for all of the Properties was substantially fully exhausted as of December 31, 2001 and the Compliance Periods of the Local Partnerships had expired as of December 31, 2006.

Item 7. | Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Registrant admitted limited partners in three closings with aggregate limited partners’ capital contributions of $55,746,000. In connection with the offering of the sale of Units, Registrant incurred organization and offering costs of approximately $6,534,000 and established a working capital reserve of approximately $3,345,000. The remaining net proceeds of approximately $45,867,000 (the “Net Proceeds”) were available to be applied to the acquisition of limited partner interests in local partnerships (the “Local Partnerships”) that own low-income multifamily residential complexes (the “Property” or “Properties”) that qualified for the low-income tax credit in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Low-income Tax Credit”); one Local Partnership owns a Property that also qualified for the historic rehabilitation tax credit in accordance with Section 48(g) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The Net Proceeds were utilized in acquiring an interest in fifty Local Partnerships.
As of March 30, 2008, Registrant has cash and cash equivalents and investments in bonds totaling $1,549,615, which is available for operating expenses of Registrant and circumstances that may arise in connection with the Local Partnerships. As of March 30, 2008, Registrant’s investments in bonds represent U.S. Treasury debt securities of $842,641 that matured in May 2008. Registrant acquired such investments in bonds with the intention of utilizing proceeds generated by such investments to meet its annual obligations. Future sources of Registrant funds are expected to be primarily from interest earned on working capital and limited cash distributions from Local Partnerships.
During the year ended March 30, 2008, Registrant received cash from interest revenue, proceeds in connection with the disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties (see discussion below under Local Partnership Matters) and distributions from Local Partnerships and utilized cash for operating expenses and voluntary advances to a Local Partnership (see discussion below under Local Partnership Matters). Cash and cash equivalents and investments in bonds decreased, in the aggregate, by approximately $517,000 during the year ended March 30, 2008 (which includes a net unrealized gain on investments in bonds of approximately $4,000 and the accretion of zero coupon bonds of approximately $38,000).
Item 7. | Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) |
During the year ended March 30, 2008, the investment in local partnerships decreased as a result of Registrant’s equity in the Local Partnerships’ net loss for the year ended December 31, 2007 of $243,859 (which includes an adjustment to the carrying value of a Local Partnership of $113,559) (see discussion below under Results of Operations), partially offset by voluntary advances to a Local Partnership of $72,321 (see discussion below under Local Partnership Matters). Accounts payable and accrued expenses and payable to general partner and affiliates in the accompanying balance sheet as of March 30, 2008 include cumulative deferred administration fees and management fees of $1,310,928.
Results of Operations
Registrant’s operating results are dependent upon the operating results of the Local Partnerships and are significantly impacted by the Local Partnerships’ policies. In addition, the operating results herein are not necessarily the same for tax reporting. Registrant accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the investment is carried at cost and is adjusted for Registrant's share of each Local Partnership's results of operations and by cash distributions received. Equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to Registrant is recognized to the extent of Registrant’s investment balance in each Local Partnership. Equity in loss in excess of Registrant’s investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners' capital in any such Local Partnership. As a result, the reported equity in loss of investment in local partnerships is expected to decrease as Registrant’s investment balances in the respective Local Partnerships become zero. However, the combined statements of operations of the Local Partnerships reflected in Note 5 to Registrant’s financial statements include the operating results of all Local Partnerships, irrespective of Registrant’s investment balances.
Cumulative losses and cash distributions in excess of investment in local partnerships may result from a variety of circumstances, including a Local Partnership's accounting policies, subsidy structure, debt structure and operating deficits, among other things. In addition, the book value of Registrant’s investment in each Local Partnership (the “Local Partnership Carrying Value”) may be reduced if the Local Partnership Carrying Value is considered to exceed the estimated value derived by management. Accordingly, cumulative losses and cash distributions in excess of the investment or an adjustment to a Local Partnership’s Carrying Value are not necessarily indicative of adverse operating results of a Local Partnership. See discussion below under Local Partnership Matters regarding certain Local Partnerships currently operating below economic break even levels.
Registrant’s operations for the years ended March 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006 resulted in net losses of $729,875, $134,200 and $2,264,870, respectively. The increase in net loss from fiscal 2007 to fiscal 2008 is primarily attributable to (i) gains on disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties totaling approximately $396,000 recognized in fiscal 2007 in connection with Powelton Gardens Associates (“Powelton”), Carrington Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership (“Carrington”), Dermott Villas Limited Partnership (“Dermott”) and 2000-2100 Christian Street Associates (“2000 Christian Street”), (ii) an increase in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships of approximately $132,000 and (iii) a decrease in other income from local partnerships of approximately $71,000. The decrease in net loss from fiscal 2006 to fiscal 2007 is primarily attributable to (i) a decrease in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships of approximately $2,182,000, (ii) an increase in other income from local partnerships of approximately $93,000 and (iii) a decrease in operating expenses of approximately $67,000, all partially offset by a decrease in gain on disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties of approximately $209,000. Equity in loss of investment in local partnerships has fluctuated over the last three years as a result of (i) Registrant adjusting the Local Partnership Carrying Value in connection with its investments in certain Local Partnerships as reflected in Note 5 to the financial statements, (ii) fluctuations in the nonrecognition of losses in accordance with the equity method of accounting and (iii) changes in the net operating results of those Local Partnerships in which Registrant continues to have an investment balance.
The Local Partnerships’ net loss of approximately $2,266,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 includes depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $3,973,000 and interest on non-mandatory debt of approximately $597,000, and does not include principal payments on permanent mortgages of approximately $1,511,000. The Local Partnerships’ net loss of approximately $2,171,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006 includes depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $4,235,000, gain on sale of property of approximately $671,000 and interest on non-mandatory debt of approximately $627,000, and does not include principal payments on permanent mortgages of approximately $1,474,000. The Local Partnerships’ net loss of approximately $1,869,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 includes depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $4,470,000, gain on sale of property of approximately $1,371,000 and interest on non-mandatory debt of approximately $730,000, and does not include principal payments on permanent mortgages of approximately $1,584,000. The rental income and total expenses have decreased over the last two years primarily as a result of the disposal of certain limited partner interests/local partnership properties. The results of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected in future periods.
Item 7. | Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) |
Local Partnership Matters
Registrant's primary objective has been to provide Low-income Tax Credits to limited partners generally over a ten year period. The relevant state tax credit agency has allocated each of Registrant’s Local Partnerships an amount of Low-income Tax Credits, which are generally available for a ten year period from the year the Property is placed in service (the “Ten Year Credit Period”). The Ten Year Credit Period was substantially fully exhausted by the Local Partnerships as of December 31, 2001. The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid Low-income Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the Low-income Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the "Compliance Period"). In addition, certain of the Local Partnerships have entered into agreements with the relevant state tax credit agencies whereby the Local Partnerships must maintain the low-income nature of the Properties for a period which exceeds the Compliance Period, regardless of any sale of the Properties by the Local Partnerships after the Compliance Period. The Properties must satisfy various requirements including rent restrictions and tenant income limitations (the "Low-income Tax Credit Requirements") in order to maintain eligibility for the recognition of the Low-income Tax Credit at all times during the Compliance Period. Once a Local Partnership has become eligible for the Low-income Tax Credit, it may lose such eligibility and suffer an event of recapture if its Property fails to remain in compliance with the Low-income Tax Credit Requirements. The Compliance Period of all of the Local Partnerships had expired as of December 31, 2006. It is the General Partner’s intention to sell or assign Registrant’s interests in Local Partnerships subsequent to the expiration of the respective Compliance Periods. It is uncertain as to the amount, if any, that Registrant will receive with respect to each specific Property from such sales and assignments.
The Properties are principally comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes located throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. Many of the Local Partnerships receive rental subsidy payments, including payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 ("Section 8”). The subsidy agreements expire at various times. Since October 1997, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) has issued a series of directives related to project based Section 8 contracts that define owners’ notification responsibilities, advise owners of project based Section 8 properties of what their options are regarding the renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide guidance and procedures to owners, management agents, contract administrators and HUD staff concerning renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide policies and procedures on setting renewal rents and handling renewal rent adjustments and provide the requirements and procedures for opting-out of a Section 8 project based contract. Registrant cannot reasonably predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations, the outcome of which could result in a reduction in funds available for the various federal and state administered housing programs including the Section 8 program. Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income before debt service (“NOI”) and debt structure of any or all Local Partnerships currently receiving such subsidy or similar subsidies. Eleven Local Partnerships’ Section 8 contracts, certain of which cover only certain rental units, are currently subject to renewal under applicable HUD guidelines. In addition, three Local Partnerships have entered into restructuring agreements, resulting in changes to both rent subsidy and mandatory debt service.
The Local Partnerships have various financing structures which include (i) required debt service payments (“Mandatory Debt Service”) and (ii) debt service payments which are payable only from available cash flow subject to the terms and conditions of the notes, which may be subject to specific laws, regulations and agreements with appropriate federal and state agencies (“Non-Mandatory Debt Service or Interest"). During the year ended December 31, 2007, revenue from operations of the Local Partnerships was generally sufficient to cover operating expenses and Mandatory Debt Service. Most of the Local Partnerships were effectively operating at or above break even levels, although certain Local Partnerships’ operating information reflects operating deficits that do not represent cash deficits due to their mortgage and financing structure and the required deferral of property management fees. However, as discussed below, certain Local Partnerships' operating information indicates below break even operations after taking into account their mortgage and financing structure and any required deferral of property management fees.
The non-mandatory mortgages of Littleton Avenue Community Village, L.P. (“Littleton”) matured in October 2006 but have not been repaid or formally extended. Unpaid principal and accrued interest as of June 2008 total approximately $8,366,000. The Local General Partner of Littleton represents that neither lender has declared a default and that negotiations are ongoing in an effort to refinance the mortgages. The real estate tax abatement on the Property expired in June 2006; however, the Local General Partner of Littleton represents that the City of Newark has not assessed the Property and has not charged Littleton for real estate taxes. Registrant’s investment balance in Littleton, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1999. The Compliance Period for Littleton has expired.
Item 7. | Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) |
The non-mandatory second mortgage of Ann Ell Apartments Associates, Ltd. (“Ann Ell”) matured in February 2006 but has not been repaid or formally extended. Unpaid principal and accrued interest as of June 2008 total approximately $787,000. The Local General Partner of Ann Ell represents that payments on the first mortgage and real estate taxes are current. Registrant has made cumulative voluntary advances to Ann Ell of $605,866 as of March 30, 2008 to fund operating deficits, $72,321 of which was advanced during the year then ended. Registrant’s investment balance in Ann Ell, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1994 and voluntary advances made by Registrant were recorded as investment in local partnerships and have been offset by additional equity in loss of investment in local partnerships. The Compliance Period for Ann Ell has expired.
The Local General Partner of Queen Lane Investors (“Queen Lane”) represents that, as a result of a dispute between the local housing agency (the “Agency”) and the Local General Partner of Queen Lane regarding the adequacy of certain unit repairs mandated by the Agency, the Local General Partner of Queen Lane requested that the Agency cancel the Section 8 voucher contract in connection with the Property. As a result, the Property has been vacant since October 2007. Two of Queen Lane’s mortgages matured in 2007 but have not been repaid, representing principal and accrued interest in excess of $1,790,000 as of June 2008. The Local General Partner of Queen Lane further represents that the lender has not issued a notice of default and that real estate taxes are in arrears approximately $8,000 as of June 2008. The Local General Partner of Queen Lane is examining the potential to sell the Property. Registrant’s investment balance in Queen Lane, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2001. The Compliance Period for Queen Lane has expired.
The terms of the partnership agreement of Patton Place Limited Partnership (“Patton Place”) require the Local General Partners of Patton Place to cause the management agent to defer property management fees in order to avoid a default under the mortgage. During the year ended December 31, 2007, Patton Place incurred an operating deficit of approximately $39,000, which includes property management fees of approximately $9,000. The Local General Partners of Patton Place represent that payments on the mortgage and real estate taxes are current. Registrant’s investment balance in Patton Place, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2008. The Compliance Period for Patton Place has expired.
1989 Westview Arms Limited Partnership (“Westview Arms”) incurred an operating deficit of approximately $31,000, during the year ended December 31, 2007. The Local General Partner of Westview Arms represents that payments on the mortgage and real estate taxes are current. Registrant’s investment balance in Westview Arms, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2008. The Compliance Period for Westview Arms has expired.
Inflation
Inflation is not expected to have a material adverse impact on Registrant's operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Registrant plans to adopt SFAS 157 beginning March 31, 2008. Registrant is currently assessing what impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Furthermore, SFAS 159 establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Registrant is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 159 on its financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R changes the accounting for acquisitions, specifically eliminating the step acquisition model, changing the recognition of contingent consideration from being recognized when it is probable to being recognized at the time of acquisition, and disallowing the capitalization of transaction costs and delays when restructurings related to acquisitions can be recognized. The standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. Registrant does not anticipate that SFAS 141R will have an impact on its financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 replaces the concept of minority interest with noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries. Noncontrolling interests will now be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated statement of financial position. Earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests will continue to be reported as a part of consolidated earnings; however, SFAS 160 requires that income attributable to both controlling and noncontrolling interests be presented separately on the face of the consolidated income statement. In addition, SFAS 160 provides that when losses attributable to noncontrolling interests exceed the noncontrolling interest’s basis, losses continue to be attributed to the noncontrolling interest as opposed to being absorbed by the consolidating entity. SFAS 160 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements of SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively. SFAS 160 is effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Registrant does not anticipate that SFAS 160 will have an impact on its financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires Registrant to make certain estimates and assumptions. A summary of significant accounting policies is provided in Note 1 to the financial statements. The following section is a summary of certain aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of Registrant’s financial condition and results of operations. Registrant believes that there is a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in the financial statements.
| · | Registrant accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting since Registrant does not control the operations of a Local Partnership. |
| · | If the book value of Registrant’s investment in a Local Partnership exceeds the estimated value derived by management, Registrant reduces its investment in any such Local Partnership and includes such reduction in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships. Registrant makes such assessment at least annually in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or whenever there are indications that a permanent impairment may have occurred. A loss in value of an investment in a Local Partnership other than a temporary decline would be recorded as an impairment loss. Impairment is measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the estimated residual value of the investment. |
| · | Registrant does not consolidate the accounts and activities of the Local Partnerships, which are considered Variable Interest Entities under FASB Interpretation No. 46 - Revised, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” because Registrant is not considered the primary beneficiary. Registrant’s balance in investment in local partnerships represents the maximum exposure to loss in connection with such investments. Registrant’s exposure to loss on the Local Partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Properties as well as the strength of the Local General Partners. |

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners
American Tax Credit Properties II L.P.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Tax Credit Properties II L.P. (the “Partnership”) as of March 30, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 30, 2008. 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. As of and for the years ended March 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006, we did not audit the financial statements of certain investee partnerships, which investments represent $1,180,760 and $1,178,468, respectively, in total assets as of March 30, 2008 and 2007 and $2,292, $(33,850) and $25,360, respectively, of total income (losses) for the years ended March 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to those investee partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 American Tax Credit Properties II L.P. as of March 30, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations, changes in partners’ equity (deficit) and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 30, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 30, 2008, 2007 AND 2006
1. | Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
American Tax Credit Properties II L.P. (the "Partnership") was formed on October 26, 1988 and the Certificate of Limited Partnership of the Partnership was filed under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. There was no operating activity until admission of the limited partners on June 28, 1989. The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes (the "Property" or "Properties") that qualified for the low-income tax credit in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Low-income Tax Credit”), through the acquisition of limited partner equity interests (the "Local Partnership Interests") in partnerships (the "Local Partnership" or "Local Partnerships") that are the owners of the Properties. The Partnership invested in one Local Partnership whose Property also qualified for the historic rehabilitation tax credit in accordance with Section 48(g) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Richman Tax Credit Properties II L.P. (the "General Partner") was formed on October 26, 1988 to act as the general partner of the Partnership.
Basis of Accounting and Fiscal Year
The Partnership's records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting for both financial reporting and tax purposes. For financial reporting purposes, the Partnership's fiscal year ends March 30 and its quarterly periods end June 29, September 29 and December 30. The Local Partnerships have a calendar year for financial reporting purposes. The Partnership and the Local Partnerships each have a calendar year for income tax purposes.
Investment in Local Partnerships
The Partnership accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting, under which the investment is carried at cost and is adjusted for the Partnership's share of each Local Partnership’s results of operations and by cash distributions received. Equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to the Partnership is recognized to the extent of the Partnership’s investment balance in each Local Partnership. Equity in loss in excess of the Partnership's investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners' capital in any such Local Partnership. Previously unrecognized equity in loss of any Local Partnership is recognized in the fiscal year in which equity in income is earned by such Local Partnership or additional investment is made by the Partnership. Distributions received subsequent to the elimination of an investment balance for any such investment in a Local Partnership are recorded as other income from local partnerships.
The Partnership assesses the carrying value of its investment in local partnerships at least annually in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or whenever there are indications that a permanent impairment may have occurred. If the carrying value of an investment in a Local Partnership exceeds the estimated value derived by management, the Partnership reduces its investment in any such Local Partnership and includes such reduction in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships. A loss in value of an investment in a Local Partnership other than a temporary decline would be recorded as an impairment loss. Impairment is measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the estimated residual value of the investment.
The Partnership does not consolidate the accounts and activities of the Local Partnerships, which are considered Variable Interest Entities under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46 - Revised, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” because the Partnership is not considered the primary beneficiary. The Partnership's balance in investment in local partnerships represents the maximum exposure to loss in connection with such investments. The Partnership's exposure to loss on the Local Partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Properties as well as the strength of the local general partners (the “Local General Partners”).
Advances made to Local Partnerships are recorded as investment in local partnerships. Such advances are considered by the Partnership to be voluntary loans to the respective Local Partnerships and the Partnership may be reimbursed at a future date to the extent such Local Partnerships generate distributable cash flow or receive proceeds from sale or refinancing. The Partnership recognizes additional equity in loss of investment in local partnerships to the extent of such voluntary advances.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
MARCH 30, 2008, 2007 AND 2006
1. | Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.
Investments in Bonds
Investments in bonds are classified as available-for-sale and represent investments that the Partnership intends to hold for an indefinite period of time but not necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell an investment would be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates and liquidity needs. Investments in bonds are carried at estimated fair value and unrealized gains or losses are included as items of comprehensive income (loss) and are reported as a separate component of partners' equity (deficit).
Premiums and discounts on investments in bonds are amortized (accreted) using the effective yield method over the life of the investment. Amortized premiums offset interest revenue, while the accretion of discounts and zero coupon bonds are included in interest revenue. Realized gain (loss) on redemptions or sales of investments in bonds are included in, or offset against, interest revenue on the basis of the adjusted cost of each specific investment redeemed or sold.
Income Taxes
No provision for income taxes has been made because all income, losses and tax credits are allocated to the partners for inclusion in their respective tax returns. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes,” the Partnership has included in Note 7 disclosures related to differences in the book and tax bases of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Partnership plans to adopt SFAS 157 beginning March 31, 2008. The Partnership is currently assessing what impact, if any, the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on its financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Furthermore, SFAS 159 establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 159 on its financial statements.

1. | Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R changes the accounting for acquisitions, specifically eliminating the step acquisition model, changing the recognition of contingent consideration from being recognized when it is probable to being recognized at the time of acquisition, and disallowing the capitalization of transaction costs and delays when restructurings related to acquisitions can be recognized. The standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Partnership does not anticipate that SFAS 141R will have an impact on its financial statements.
In December 4, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 replaces the concept of minority interest with noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries. Noncontrolling interests will now be reported as a component of equity in the consolidated statement of financial position. Earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests will continue to be reported as a part of consolidated earnings; however, SFAS 160 requires that income attributable to both controlling and noncontrolling interests be presented separately on the face of the consolidated income statement. In addition, SFAS 160 provides that when losses attributable to noncontrolling interests exceed the noncontrolling interest’s basis, losses continue to be attributed to the noncontrolling interest as opposed to being absorbed by the consolidating entity.

The summary of property activity during the year ended December 31, 2007 is as follows:
| | Balance as of December 31, 2006 | | Net change during the year ended December 31, 2007 | | Balance as of December 31, 2007 | |
| | | | | | | |
Land | | $ | 3,397,304 | | $ | (200,880 | ) | $ | 3,196,424 | |
Buildings and improvements | | | 123,665,987 | | | (5,675,274 | ) | | 117,990,713 | |
| | | 127,063,291 | | | (5,876,154 | ) | | 121,187,137 | |

| | $ | 56,087,278 | | $ | (5,694,118 | ) | $ | 50,393,160 | |
The equity in loss of investment in local partnerships as reflected in the accompanying statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended March 30, 2007 was $111,972. The amount reflected herein Note 5 in the combined statement of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2006 includes an allocation to the Partnership of gain on sale of the Properties owned by Powelton Gardens Associates (“Powelton”) and Dermott Villas Limited Partnership (“Dermott”) (see discussion below). The gains recognized by Powelton and Dermott were $438,657 and $232,484, respectively. Because the Partnership’s investment balance in Powelton and Dermott was zero prior to the sales, the Partnership recognized income to the extent of proceeds received.
The equity in loss of investment in local partnerships as reflected in the accompanying statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended March 30, 2006 was $181,317 (excluding $2,112,852 of adjustments to the carrying value of the Partnership’s investment in certain Local Partnerships as described above herein Note 5). The Property owned by Elm Hill Housing Limited Partnership (“Elm Hill”) was sold on March 31, 2005, in connection with which Elm Hill recognized a gain on sale of property of $1,177,998 that is included in the statement of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2005 included herein Note 5. The Partnership had received $891,559 as of March 30, 2006 in connection with the sale and adjusted the carrying value of Elm Hill as described above for the year ended March 30, 2005 based on such anticipated proceeds. Accordingly, although the combined statement of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2005 includes an allocation to the Partnership of gain on sale of the Elm Hill property, no such allocation was recorded by the Partnership. Elm Hill has since been dissolved, but the Partnership received additional proceeds in the amount of $104,221; such amount is included in gain on disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended March 30, 2006.
In a series of two separate transactions in September 2006 and October 2006, the Property owned by Powelton (see discussion above) was sold. The Partnership received $240,502 in connection with the sale, which amount is included in gain on disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended March 30, 2007. Powelton was subsequently dissolved.
The Property owned by Dermott (see discussion above) was sold in October 2006, whereby the Partnership received $40,000 in May 2007. Such amount is reflected as due from local partnership in the accompanying balance sheet of the Partnership as of March 30, 2007 and is included in gain on disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations of the Partnership for the year then ended. The Partnership withdrew from Dermott effective December 31, 2006.
Effective February 2007, the Partnership assigned its limited partner interest in Carrington to one of Carrington’s general partners, whereby the Partnership received $75,105. Such amount is included in gain on disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended March 30, 2007.

5. | Investment in Local Partnerships (continued) |
Effective October 1998, the Partnership and the Local General Partners of 2000-2100 Christian Street Associates (“2000 Christian Street”) and Christian Street Associates Limited Partnership (“Christian Street”) agreed to equally share the funding of operating deficits through June 30, 2000 in the case of Christian Street and through September 30, 2000 in the case of 2000 Christian Street (the respective “Funding Agreements”). The Funding Agreements were extended through December 31, 2004. Under the terms of the Funding Agreements, the Partnership had advanced $540,848 as of March 30, 2006; no operating deficits were funded in fiscal 2006. Such advances were recorded as investment in local partnerships and were offset by additional equity in loss of investment in local partnerships (see Note 1). In May 2005, the Partnership withdrew as a limited partner of Christian Street for consideration of $10; there was no impact on the Partnership’s financial statements as a result of such withdrawal. In June 2006, the Partnership withdrew from 2000 Christian Street for consideration of $40,000; such amount is included in gain on disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended March 30, 2007.
In January 2006, the Partnership sold its limited partner interest in York Park Associates Limited Partnership (“York Park”) to an affiliate of one of York Park’s general partners. The Partnership received $500,000 subsequent to March 30, 2006 in connection with the sale; such amount is included in gain on disposal of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended March 30, 2006.
The Partnership made voluntary advances of $72,321 and $64,000 during the years ended March 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, to Ann Ell to fund operating deficits. Cumulative voluntary advances as of March 30, 2008 and 2007 are $605,866 and $533,545, respectively. The Partnership’s investment balance in Ann Ell, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1994 and voluntary advances made by the Partnership were recorded as investment in local partnerships and have been offset by additional equity in loss of investment in local partnerships (see Note 1). In addition, Ann Ell’s non-mandatory second mortgage matured in February 2006 but has not been repaid or formally extended. Unpaid principal and accrued interest as of June 2008 total approximately $787,000. The Local General Partner of Ann Ell represents that payments on the first mortgage and real estate taxes are current.
The Local General Partner of Queen Lane represents that, as a result of a dispute between the local housing agency (the “Agency”) and the Local General Partner of Queen Lane regarding the adequacy of certain unit repairs mandated by the Agency, the Local General Partner of Queen Lane requested that the Agency cancel the Section 8 voucher contract in connection with the Property. As a result, the Property has been vacant since October 2007. Two of Queen Lane’s mortgages matured in 2007 but have not been repaid, representing principal and accrued interest in excess of $1,790,000 as of June 2008. The Local General Partner of Queen Lane further represents that the lender has not issued a notice of default and that real estate taxes are in arrears approximately $8,000 as of June 2008.. The Local General Partner of Queen Lane is examining the potential to sell the Property. The Partnership’s investment balance in Queen Lane, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 2001.
The non-mandatory mortgages of Littleton matured in October 2006 but have not been repaid or formally extended. Unpaid principal and accrued interest as of June 2008 total approximately $8,366,000. The Local General Partner of Littleton represents that neither lender has declared a default and that negotiations are ongoing in an effort to refinance the mortgages. The real estate tax abatement on the Property expired in June 2006; however, the Local General Partner of Littleton represents that the City of Newark has not assessed the Property and has not charged Littleton for real estate taxes. The Partnership’s investment balance in Littleton, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1999.
The Partnership made voluntary advances of $49,923 during the year ended March 30, 2006 to College Avenue Apartments Limited Partnership (“College Avenue”) to fund operating deficits. Cumulative voluntary advances as of March 30, 2006 were $176,501. Such voluntary advances were recorded as investment in local partnerships and were offset by additional equity in loss of investment in local partnerships (see Note 1). The Property owned by College Avenue was sold in July 2005, in connection with which College Avenue recognized a gain on sale of property of $192,723 that is included in the statement of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2005 included herein Note 5. Although the combined statement of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2005 includes an allocation to the Partnership of gain on sale of the College Avenue property, no such allocation was recorded by the Partnership. The Partnership did not receive any proceeds and there is no impact on the Partnership’s financial statements as a result of such sale.

8. | Commitments and Contingencies |
Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership incurs an annual management fee (“Management Fee”) and an annual additional management fee (“Additional Management Fee”) payable to the General Partner for its services in connection with the management of the affairs of the Partnership. The annual Management Fee is equal to .14% of all proceeds as of December 31 of any year, invested or committed for investment in Local Partnerships plus all debts of the Local Partnerships related to the Properties ("Invested Assets"). The Partnership incurred a Management Fee of $156,249 $154,816 and $176,434 for the years ended March 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The annual Additional Management Fee is equal to .06% of Invested Assets. The Partnership incurred an Additional Management Fee of $66,964, $67,968 and $75,614 for the years ended March 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Such amounts are aggregated and reflected under the caption management fees - affiliate in the accompanying statements of operations. Unpaid Management Fees and Additional Management fees in the cumulative amount of $587,890 and $784,283 are included in payable to general partner and affiliates in the accompanying balance sheets as of March 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
In addition, pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is authorized to contract for administrative services provided to the Partnership. From the inception of the Partnership through November 23, 1999, such administrative services were provided by ML Fund Administrators Inc. (“MLFA”), an affiliate of the Selling Agent, pursuant to an Administrative Services Agreement. MLFA resigned the performance of its basic services under the Administrative Services Agreement effective November 23, 1999, with certain transitional services continuing through April 30, 2000. The General Partner transitioned the administrative services to an affiliate of the General Partner without any changes to the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement. Pursuant to such agreement, the Partnership incurs an annual administration fee (“Administration Fee”) and an annual additional administration fee (“Additional Administration Fee”) for administrative services provided to the Partnership. The annual Administration Fee is equal to .14% of Invested Assets. The Partnership incurred an Administration Fee of $156,249, $154,816 and $176,434 for the years ended March 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The annual Additional Administration Fee is subject to certain provisions of the Partnership Agreement and is equal to .06% of Invested Assets. The Partnership incurred an Additional Administration Fee of $66,964, $67,968 and $75,614 for the years ended March 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Such amounts are aggregated and reflected under the caption administration fees - affiliate in the accompanying statements of operations. Unpaid Administration Fees and Additional Administration Fees due to MLFA in the cumulative amount of $344,665 are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets as of March 30, 2008 and 2007. Unpaid Administration Fees and Additional Administration Fees due to an affiliate of the General Partner in the cumulative amount of $378,373 and $184,980 are included in due to general partner and affiliates in the accompanying balance sheets as of March 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
The rents of the Properties, many of which receive rental subsidy payments, including payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (“Section 8”), are subject to specific laws, regulations and agreements with federal and state agencies. The subsidy agreements expire at various times. Since October 1997, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) has issued a series of directives related to project based Section 8 contracts that define owners’ notification responsibilities, advise owners of project based Section 8 properties of what their options are regarding the renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide guidance and procedures to owners, management agents, contract administrators and HUD staff concerning renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide policies and procedures on setting renewal rents and handling renewal rent adjustments and provide the requirements and procedures for opting-out of a Section 8 project based contract. The Partnership cannot reasonably predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations, the outcome of which could result in a reduction in funds available for the various federal and state administered housing programs including the Section 8 program. Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income before debt service (“NOI”) and debt structure of any or all Local Partnerships currently receiving such subsidy or similar subsidies. Eleven Local Partnerships’ Section 8 contracts, certain of which cover only certain rental units, are currently subject to renewal under applicable HUD guidelines. In addition, three Local Partnerships entered into restructuring agreements, resulting in a change to both rent subsidy and mandatory debt service.

Item 9A. | Controls and Procedures |
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Registrant in reports that Registrant files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and timely reported as provided in SEC rules and forms. Registrant periodically reviews the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, including compliance with various laws and regulations that apply to its operations. Registrant makes modifications to improve the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, and may take other corrective action, if its reviews identify a need for such modifications or actions. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, Registrant recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Registrant has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the year ended March 30, 2008. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 30, 2008.
Item9A(T). | Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting |
Registrant is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Registrant conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based on the framework set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on its evaluation, management has concluded that Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 30, 2008.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit Registrant to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
There were no changes in Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 30, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
