Organization of Partnership --------------------------- John Hancock Realty Income Fund Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") was formed under the Massachusetts Uniform Limited Partnership Act on June 12, 1986. As of June 30, 1996, the Partnership consisted of John Hancock Realty Equities, Inc. (the "General Partner"), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company; John Hancock Realty Funding, Inc. (the "John Hancock Limited Partner"); and 4,218 Investor Limited Partners (the "Investors"), owning 91,647 Units of Investor Limited Partnership Interests (the "Units"). The John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors are collectively referred to as the Limited Partners. The initial capital of the Partnership was $2,000, representing capital contributions of $1,000 from the General Partner and $1,000 from the John Hancock Limited Partner. The Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") authorized the issuance of up to 100,000 Units of Limited Partnership Interests at $500 per unit. During the offering period, which terminated on September 9, 1987, 91,647 Units were sold and the John Hancock Limited Partner made additional capital contributions of $7,330,760. There have been no changes in the number of Units outstanding subsequent to the termination of the offering period. The Partnership is engaged in the business of acquiring, holding for investment and disposing of existing, income-producing, commercial and industrial properties on an all-cash basis, free and clear of mortgage indebtedness. Although the Partnership's properties were acquired and are held free and clear of mortgage indebtedness, the Partnership may incur mortgage indebtedness on its properties under certain circumstances, as specified in the Partnership Agreement. The latest date on which the Partnership is due to terminate is December 31, 2016, unless it is sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. It is expected that in the ordinary course of the Partnership's business, the properties of the Partnership will be disposed of, and the Partnership terminated, before December 31, 2016. 7 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited) 2. Significant Accounting Policies ------------------------------- The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. These investments are recorded at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. Restricted cash represents funds restricted for tenant security deposits and other escrows, and has been designated as current or long- term, based upon the terms of the related lease agreements. Investments in property are recorded at cost less any property write- downs for permanent impairment in values. Cost includes the initial purchase price of the property plus acquisition and legal fees, other miscellaneous acquisition costs, and the cost of significant improvements. Depreciation has been provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the various assets: thirty years for the buildings and five years for related improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Deferred expenses relating to tenant improvements and lease commissions are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases to which they relate. During 1993, the Partnership reduced the period over which its remaining deferred acquisition fees are amortized from thirty years, the estimated useful life of the buildings owned by the Partnership, to four and one-half years, the then estimated remaining life of the Partnership. 8 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited) 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) ------------------------------- The net income per Unit for the periods hereof are computed by dividing the Investors' share of net income by the number of Units outstanding at the end of such periods. No provision for income taxes has been made in the financial statements as such taxes are the responsibility of the individual partners and not of the Partnership. 3. The Partnership Agreement ------------------------- Distributable Cash from Operations (defined in the Partnership Agreement) is distributed 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner. The Limited Partners' share of Distributable Cash from Operations is distributed as follows: first, to the Investors until they receive a 7% non-cumulative, non-compounded annual cash return on their Invested Capital (defined in the Partnership Agreement); second, to the John Hancock Limited Partner until it receives a 7% non-cumulative, non-compounded annual cash return on its Invested Capital; and third, to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions (defined in the Partnership Agreement). However, any Distributable Cash from Operations which is available as a result of the reduction of working capital reserves funded by Capital Contributions of the Investors will be distributed 100% to the Investors. Cash from Sales or Financings (defined in the Partnership Agreement) is first used to pay all debts and liabilities of the Partnership then due and is then used to fund any reserves for contingent liabilities. Cash from Sales or Financings is then distributed as follows: first, to the Limited Partners until they receive an amount equal to their Invested Capital with the distribution being made between the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions; second, to the Investors until they have received, with respect to all previous distributions during the year, their Cumulative Return on Investment (defined in the Partnership Agreement); third, to the John Hancock Limited Partner until it has received, with respect to all previous distributions during the year, its Cumulative Return on Investment; fourth, to the General Partner to pay any Subordinated Disposition Fees (defined in the Partnership Agreement); and fifth, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner, with the distribution being made between the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions. 9 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited) 3. The Partnership Agreement (continued) ------------------------- Cash from the sale of the last of the Partnership's properties is to be distributed in the same manner as Cash from Sales or Financings, except that before any other distribution is made to the Partners, each Partner shall first receive from such cash, an amount equal to the then positive balance, if any, in such Partner's Capital Account after crediting or charging to such account the profits or losses for tax purposes from such sale. To the extent, if any, that a Partner is entitled to receive a distribution of cash based upon a positive balance in its capital account prior to such distribution, such distribution will be credited against the amount of such cash the Partner would have been entitled to receive based upon the manner of distribution of Cash from Sales or Financings, as specified in the previous paragraph. Profits from the normal operations of the Partnership for each fiscal year are allocated to the Limited Partners and General Partner in the same amounts as Distributable Cash from Operations for that year. If such profits are less than Distributable Cash from Operations for any year, they are allocated in proportion to the amounts of Distributable Cash from Operations for that year. If such profits are greater than Distributable Cash from Operations for any year, they are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner, with the allocation made between the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions. Losses from the normal operations of the Partnership are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner, with the allocation made between the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions. Depreciation deductions are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the Investors, and not to the John Hancock Limited Partner. Profits and Losses from Sales or Financings are generally allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. In connection with the sale of the last of the Partnership's properties, and therefore the dissolution of the Partnership, profits will be allocated to any Partners having a deficit balance in their Capital Account in an amount equal to the deficit balance. Any remaining profits will be allocated in the same order as cash from the sale would be distributed. 10 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited) 4. Investment in Property ---------------------- Investment in property at cost and reduced by write-downs consists of managed, fully-operating, commercial real estate as follows: June 30, 1996 December 31, 1995 ------------- ----------------- 1300 North Dutton Avenue Office Complex $2,835,779 $2,835,779 Marlboro Square Shopping Center 2,523,643 3,183,643 Crossroads Square Shopping Center 12,266,920 12,266,920 Carnegie Center Office/Warehouse 6,844,991 6,844,991 Warner Plaza Shopping Center 6,473,889 6,473,889 ----------- ----------- Total $30,945,222 $31,605,222 =========== =========== The real estate market is cyclical in nature and is materially affected by general economic trends and economic conditions in the market where a property is located. As a result, determination of real estate values involves subjective judgments. These judgments are based on current market conditions and assumptions related to future market conditions. These assumptions involve, among other things, the availability of capital, occupancy rates, rental rates, interest rates and inflation rates. Amounts ultimately realized from each property may vary significantly from the values presented and the differences could be material. Actual market values of real estate can be determined only by negotiation between the parties in a sales transaction. On June 30, 1996, the Partnership reduced the carrying value of the Marlboro Square Shopping Center property by $660,000. 11 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited) 5. Deferred Expenses ----------------- Deferred expenses consist of the following: Unamortized Unamortized Balance at Balance at Description June 30, 1996 December 31, 1995 ----------- ------------- ----------------- $114,494 of acquisition fees paid to the General Partner. This amount was amortized over a period of thirty years prior to June 30, 1993. Subsequent to June 30, 1993, the unamortized balance is amortized over a period of fifty-four months. $32,122 $42,829 $875,060 of tenant improvements. These amounts are amortized over the terms of the leases to which they relate. 371,703 256,271 $339,369 of lease commissions. These amounts are amortized over the terms of the leases to which they relate. 238,946 235,427 -------- -------- $642,771 $534,527 ======== ======== 6. Transactions with the General Partner and Affiliates ---------------------------------------------------- Fees and expenses incurred or paid by the General Partner or its affiliates on behalf of the Partnership and to which the General Partner or its affiliates are entitled to reimbursement from the Partnership were as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 1995 ---- ---- Reimbursement for operating expenses $84,347 $79,830 Partnership management fee expense 38,813 41,970 -------- -------- $123,160 $121,800 ======== ======== These expenses are included in expenses on the Statements of Operations. Accounts payable to affiliates represents amounts due to the General Partner or its affiliates for various services provided to the Partnership. The General Partner serves in a similar capacity for three other affiliated real estate limited partnerships. 12 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) 7. Federal Income Taxes -------------------- A reconciliation of the net income/(loss) reported on the Statements of Operations to the net income reported for federal income tax purposes is as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 1995 ---- ---- Net income/(loss) per Statements of Operations ($88,464) $728,757 Add/(deduct): Excess of tax depreciation over book depreciation (38,189) (24,333) Excess of book amortization over tax amortization 46,014 23,832 Reduction of property's carrying value 660,000 - -------- -------- Net income for federal income tax purposes $579,361 $728,256 ======== ======== 13 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General - ------- During the offering period from September 9, 1986 to September 9, 1987, the Partnership sold 91,647 Units representing gross proceeds (exclusive of the John Hancock Limited Partner's contribution which was used to pay sales commissions, acquisition fees and organizational and offering expenses) of $45,823,500. The proceeds of the offering were used to acquire investment properties and fund reserves. The Partnership's properties are described more fully in Note 4 to the Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Report. Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- At June 30, 1996, the Partnership had $2,848,421 in cash and cash equivalents, $5,970 in restricted cash and $51,069 in long-term restricted cash. The Partnership has established a working capital reserve with a current balance of approximately 5% of the Investors' Invested Capital (defined in the Partnership Agreement). Liquidity would, however, be materially adversely affected by a significant reduction in revenues, unanticipated operating costs, unanticipated leasing costs or unanticipated capital expenditures. If any or all of these events were to occur, to the extent that the working capital reserve would be insufficient to satisfy the cash requirements of the Partnership, it is anticipated that additional funds would be obtained through a further reduction of cash distributions to Investors, bank loans, short-term loans from the General Partner or its affiliates, or the sale or financing of Partnership properties. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, cash from working capital reserves was used for the payment of leasing costs in the amount of $189,429 incurred at the Carnegie Center and Marlboro Square properties. The General Partner estimates that the Partnership will incur approximately $951,000 of additional leasing costs at its properties during the remainder of 1996. Of this amount, approximately $690,000 is expected to be incurred at the 1300 North Dutton Avenue property in connection with a new lease secured for the property which is scheduled to commence in October 1996. In addition, approximately $158,000 is expected to be incurred at the Carnegie Center property in connection with the Partnership's continued efforts to secure new tenants at this property. The General Partner anticipates that the current balance in the working capital reserve will be sufficient to pay such costs. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, approximately $56,000 of cash from operations was used to fund non-recurring maintenance and repair expenses incurred at the Marlboro Square, Crossroads Square, Carnegie Center and the Warner Plaza properties. The General Partner estimates that the Partnership will incur additional non-recurring repair and maintenance expenses of approximately $87,000 at its properties during the remainder of 1996. These additional expenses will be funded from the operations of the Partnership's properties and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Partnership's liquidity. 14 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued) - ------------------------------- Cash in the aggregate amount of $6,443,061 was distributed to the Partners during the six months ended June 30, 1996. Of this amount, $1,127,535 was generated from Distributable Cash from Operations (defined in the Partnership Agreement), and $5,315,526 was generated from Distributable Cash from Sales or Financings (defined in the Partnership Agreement). These amounts were distributed in accordance with the Partnership Agreement and were allocated as follows: From Distributable From Distributable Cash From Cash From Operations Sales or Financings ---------- ------------------- Investors $1,116,260 $4,582,350 John Hancock Limited Partner - 733,176 General Partner 11,275 - ---------- ---------- Total $1,127,535 $5,315,526 ========== ========== The amount distributed to Investors from Distributable Cash from Operations during the six months ended June 30, 1996 represented a 5% annualized return on Investors' Invested Capital. The following table summarizes the leasing activity and occupancy status at the Partnership's properties during the six months ended June 30, 1996: 1300 North Marlboro Sq. Crossroads Sq.

During July 1996, the General Partner entered into a lease on behalf of the Partnership with a new tenant, Union Oil Company of California to take occupancy of the entire property. The lease, which is due to commence in October 1996, is for a five year term with a base rent of approximately $380,000 for the first lease year. In connection with this lease, the Partnership expects to incur approximately $690,000 in leasing costs during the remainder of 1996. The General Partner anticipates that the working capital reserve will be sufficient to pay for such leasing costs. The General Partner anticipates that absorption of existing retail space in the Marlboro, Massachusetts area will remain sluggish during 1996 due to both the lack of demand and the increase in retail space in the area due to a new retail development near to the Marlboro Square property which commenced operations during August 1996. However, the General Partner believes that the recent leasing activity at the Marlboro Square property, specifically the extension of the anchor tenant's lease, the expansion of the space occupied by an existing tenant and the signing of a lease with a tenant to take occupancy of the property's outparcel, may have a favorable impact on efforts to secure additional tenants at the property. The General Partner will continue to offer competitive rental rates and concessions in an effort to retain existing tenants as well as to lease the remaining vacant space at the property. During 1994, a tenant that had occupied 45% of the Carnegie Center property did not renew its leases upon their expirations and, as a result, the property's occupancy declined to 35%. As of the date hereof, the property's occupancy is 64%. The General Partner continues to actively seek new tenants for the remaining vacant space. Should additional tenants not be located to take occupancy of this available space at the Carnegie Center property, the Partnership's liquidity would be adversely affected. Rental rates and concessions are priced competitively in an effort to secure new tenants as well as retain existing tenants at the property. A tenant at the Crossroads Square property, with a lease for approximately 12,500 square feet, or 7% of the property, filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in March 1996. Prior to filing for protection, this tenant discontinued satisfying its rental obligations and subsequently requested a reduction in its rental payments through the end of its lease, which is scheduled to expire in October 2003. Given the current favorable real estate market conditions in the area where Crossroads Square is located, the General Partner did not agree to a reduced rental amount. This tenant has since recommenced paying its rent, but it remains two months in arrears on its past due rental obligations. The General Partner will pursue full collection of this past due rental amount and all future rental obligations not met by this tenant. 16 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued) - ------------------------------- The General Partner believes that, based upon each property's current occupancy and tenant mix as well as the current real estate market conditions in the areas in which these properties are located, the Crossroads Square and Warner Plaza properties should provide the Partnership with stable income performance during the remainder of 1996. During the second quarter of 1996, the General Partner had the Marlboro Square Shopping Center property independently appraised. Based upon the appraiser's investigation and analysis, the property's market value is estimated to be approximately $1,650,000 as of June 30, 1996. The net book value of the Marlboro Square Shopping Center property of approximately $2,309,000 at June 30, 1996 was evaluated in comparison to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows and the independent appraisal, and, based upon such evaluation, the General Partner determined that a write-down of $660,000 was required to reflect the estimated permanent impairment in the value of the Marlboro Square Shopping Center property. Weak absorption of available retail space in Marlboro, Massachusetts, in general, have contributed to the decline in this property's value. The General Partner evaluated the carrying value of each of the Partnership's properties as of December 31, 1995 by comparing such value to the respective property's future undiscounted cash flows and the then most recent internal appraisal. Based on such evaluations, the General Partner determined that no permanent impairment in values existed with respect to these properties as of December 31, 1995 and, therefore, no write-downs were recorded. The General Partner will continue to conduct property valuations, using internal or independent appraisals, in order to determine whether a permanent impairment in value exists on any of the Partnership's properties. Results of Operations - --------------------- During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership generated a net loss of $88,464, as compared to net income of $728,757 for the same period in 1995. This decrease is primarily due to the write-down in the value of the Marlboro Square Shopping Center property on June 30, 1996 and the sale of the J.C. Penney Credit Operations Center property ("J.C. Penney") on December 29, 1995. Excluding this write-down in the 1996 period and the net income generated by J.C. Penney during the period in 1995, net income increased by 13% between periods primarily due to increases in the performance of the Carnegie Center and Warner Plaza properties. These increases were partially offset by declines in the performance of the 1300 North Dutton Avenue and Marlboro Square properties. Net income at the Crossroads Square property was consistent between periods. 17 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Results of Operations (continued) - --------------------- Average occupancy for the Partnership's investments was as follows: Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 1995 ---- ---- 1300 North Dutton Avenue Office Complex 0% 17% Marlboro Square Shopping Center 76% 74% Crossroads Square Shopping Center 94% 95% Carnegie Center Office/Warehouse 59% 41% Warner Plaza Shopping Center 100% 98% Rental income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 decreased by $300,361, or 19%, as compared to the same period in 1995. This decrease is primarily due to the sale of J.C. Penney. Excluding the rental income generated by J.C. Penney during this period in 1995, rental income was consistent between periods. Rental income did, however, increase by 46% at Carnegie Center between periods primarily due to an increase in average occupancy. This increase was partially offset by decreases in rental income at the 1300 North Dutton Avenue and Marlboro Square properties. Rental income at 1300 North Dutton Avenue decreased due to the expiration on January 31, 1995 of the lease held by the sole tenant at the property. Rental income at Marlboro Square decreased by 24% between periods primarily due to a significant reduction in the rental rate paid by the anchor tenant at the property. Rental income also decreased at Marlboro Square due to a decline in rental rates on leases executed during 1995. Rental income at the Crossroads Square and Warner Plaza properties was consistent between periods. Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased by $30,167, or 35%, as compared to the same period in 1995. This increase was primarily due to the interest earned on net sales proceeds received from the sale of J.C. Penney on December 29, 1995. The Partnership distributed the majority of such net sales proceeds in February 1996. Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 1996 decreased by $84,564, or 18%, as compared to the same period 1995. This decrease is primarily due to the sale of J.C. Penney. 18 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Results of Operations (continued) - --------------------- The Partnership's share of property operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 decreased by $34,928, or 15%, as compared to the same period in 1995. This decrease is primarily due to decreases in its share of property operating expenses at the Marlboro Square, Crossroads Square, Carnegie Center and Warner Plaza properties. The Partnership's share of property operating expenses decreased at the Marlboro Square, Carnegie Center and Warner Plaza properties primarily due to increases in average occupancy at these properties during 1996 and, therefore, increases in tenant reimbursements collected for such expenses. The Partnership's share of property operating expenses decreased at Crossroads Square, primarily due to non-recurring repairs made at the property during the period in 1995 to improve the property's appearance and maintain its competitive position in the marketplace. The Partnership's share of property operating expenses at the 1300 North Dutton Avenue was consistent between the periods. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 decreased by $6,534, or 6%, as compared to the same period in 1995. During the six months ended June 30, 1995, the General Partner secured an extension of the tenant's lease at the J.C. Penney Credit Operations Center and the anchor tenant's lease at Marlboro Square resulting in a greater amount of the General Partner's time allocated to the Partnership. The same amount of time was not required of the General Partner during the same period in 1996. Amortization of deferred expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased by $16,210, or 25%, as compared to the same period in 1995. This increase is primarily due to leasing activity which occurred at the Partnership's properties during both 1995 and the six month period ended June 30, 1996, and the amortization of the associated leasing costs. Management fee expense for the six months ended June 30, 1996 decreased by $3,157, or 8%, as compared to the same period in 1995. This decrease was due to a decline in Cash from Operations (defined in the Partnership Agreement) between periods which primarily resulted from the sale of J.C. Penney. The General Partner determined that the value of the Marlboro Square Shopping Center property had been permanently impaired. As a result, on June 30, 1996, Marlboro Square's carrying value was reduced by $660,000 and this amount was charged directly to operations. The General Partner believes that inflation has had no significant impact on the Partnership's operations during the six months ended June 30, 1996, and the General Partner anticipates that inflation will not have a significant impact during the remainder of 1996. 19 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued) Cash Flow - --------- The following table provides the calculations of Cash from Operations and Distributable Cash from Operations which are calculated in accordance with Section 17 of the Partnership Agreement: Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 1995 ---- ---- Net cash provided by operating activities (a) $1,083,491 $1,287,797 Net change in operating assets and liabilities (a) (39,432) (18,163) ---------- ---------- Cash provided by operations (a) 1,044,059 1,269,634 Increase in working capital reserves - (112,476) Add: Accrual basis Partnership management fee 38,813 41,970 ---------- ---------- Cash from operations (b) 1,082,872 1,199,128 Decrease in working capital reserves 26,082 - Less: Accrual basis Partnership management fee (38,813) (41,970) ---------- ---------- Distributable cash from operations (b) $1,070,141 $1,157,158 ========== ========== Allocation to General Partner $10,701 $11,572 Allocation to John Hancock Limited Partner - - Allocation to Investors 1,059,440 1,145,586 ---------- ---------- Distributable cash from operations (b) $1,070,141 $1,157,158 ========== ========== (a) Net cash provided by operating activities, net change in operating assets and liabilities, and cash provided by operations are as calculated in the Statements of Cash Flows included in Item 1 of this Report. (b) As defined in the Partnership Agreement. Distributable Cash from Operations should not be considered as an alternative to net income (i.e. not an indicator of performance) or to reflect cash flows or availability of discretionary funds. During the third quarter of 1996, the Partnership expects to make a cash distribution of $515,973, representing a 5% annualized return, to all Investors of record at June 30, 1996, based on Distributable Cash from Operations for the quarter then ended. The General Partner anticipates that the Partnership will make comparable cash distributions during the remaining quarter of 1996. 20 JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership) PART II: OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings In February 1996, a putative class action complaint was filed in the Superior Court in Essex County, New Jersey by a single investor in a limited partnership affiliated with the Partnership. The complaint named as defendants the Partnership, the General Partner, certain other affiliates of the General Partner, and certain unnamed officers, directors, employees and agents of the named defendants. The plaintiff sought unspecified damages stemming from alleged misrepresentations and omissions in the marketing and offering materials associated with the Partnership and two limited partnerships affiliated with the Partnership.
