	The accompanying unaudited financial statements of American Tax Credit Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust Series I (the “Trust”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. They do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The results of operations are impacted, in part, by the combined results of operations of the Trust’s investee partnerships (the “Local Partnerships”), which are provided by the general partners of the Local Partnerships (the “Local General Partners”) on an unaudited basis during interim periods. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited financial statements are dependent on such unaudited information. In the opinion of the manager of the Trust (the “Manager”), the accompanying unaudited financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 29, 2013 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the six months ended September 29, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.

	2.      Investment in Local Partnerships
	The Trust initially acquired limited partner equity interests (the “Local Partnership Interests”) in ten Local Partnerships representing capital contributions in the aggregate amount of $14,837,956, which includes voluntary advances (the “Advances”) made to certain Local Partnerships and all of which has been paid. As of September 29, 2013, the Trust holds a Local Partnership Interest in nine Local Partnerships (see discussion below regarding the Trust’s sale of its Local Partnership Interest in Penn Apartment Associates (“Penn Apartments”) subsequent to September 29, 2013 and Edgewood Manor Associates, L.P.’s (“Edgewood”) sale of its underlying Property). The Trust has no legal obligation to fund any operating deficits of the Local Partnerships.
	For the six months ended September 29, 2013, the investment in local partnerships activity consists of the following:
	Investment in local partnerships as of March 30, 2013	$2,435,800
	Equity in income of investment in local partnerships	160,291	*
	Distributions from Local Partnerships	-60,991
	Distributions classified as other income	3,750
	Investment in local partnerships as of September 29, 2013	$2,538,850
	*In the event the operations of a Local Partnership result in a loss, equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to the Trust is recognized to the extent of the Trust’s investment balance in each Local Partnership. Equity in loss in excess of the Trust’s investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners’ capital in any such Local Partnership.
	In October 2013, the Trust sold its Local Partnership Interest in Penn Apartments to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of Penn Apartments. Although the Trust received no proceeds in connection with the sale, the Trust received $46,250 for distributions that were due to the Trust under the terms of Penn Apartments’ partnership agreement. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, the Trust’s investment in Penn Apartments reached a zero balance prior to the sale.
	During the year ended March 30, 2013, Edgewood sold its underlying Property to an unaffiliated third party. The Local General Partners of Edgewood intend to dissolve Edgewood as soon as possible. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, the Trust’s investment in Edgewood reached a zero balance prior to the sale.
	The Trust’s investment in St. John Housing Associates, L.P. (“St. John Housing”) represents more than 20% of the Trust’s total assets as of September 29, 2013 and the equity in income from the Trust’s investment in St. John Housing represents more than 20% of the Trust’s net income for the six months then ended. The following financial information represents certain unaudited balance sheet and operating statement data of St. John Housing as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2013:
