BOSTON FINANCIAL QUALIFIED HOUSING TAX CREDITS L.P. V (A Limited Partnership) NOTES TO THE COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) The unaudited financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included with the Partnership's Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1999. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Partnership's financial position and results of operations. The results of operations for the periods may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the year. The General Partners have elected to report results of the Local Limited Partnerships on a 90 day lag basis, because the Local Limited Partnerships report their results on a calendar year basis. Accordingly, the financial information of the Local Limited Partnerships included in the accompanying combined financial statements is as of June 30, 1999. 1. Investments in Local Limited Partnerships The Partnership has acquired interests in twenty-six Local Limited Partnerships, excluding Burbank, which own and operate multi-family housing complexes, most of which are government-assisted. The Partnership, as Investor Limited Partner, pursuant to the various Local Limited Partnership Agreements, has acquired a 99% interest in the profits, losses, tax credits and cash flows from operations of each of the Local Limited Partnerships, with the exception of Strathern Park/Lorne Park Apartments and Huguenot Park, which interests are 95% and 88.6%, respectively. Upon dissolution, proceeds will be distributed according to each respective partnership agreement. The following is a summary of Investments in Local Limited Partnerships, excluding Burbank, at September 30, 1999: Capital contributions paid to Local Limited Partnerships and purchase price paid to withdrawing partners of Local Limited Partnerships $ 55,269,931 Cumulative equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships (excluding cumulative unrecognized losses of $1,881,764) (33,629,787) Cumulative cash distributions received from Local Limited Partnerships (1,532,961) -------------- Investments in Local Limited Partnerships before adjustment 20,107,183 Excess of investment cost over the underlying net assets acquired: Acquisition fees and expenses 1,006,357 Accumulated amortization of acquisition fees and expenses (214,352) -------------- Investments in Local Limited Partnerships 20,899,188 Reserve for valuation of investment in Local Limited Partnership (590,197) -------------- $ 20,308,991 The Partnership's share of net losses of the Local Limited Partnerships, excluding Burbank, for the six months ended September 30, 1999 totaled $1,672,083.

V (A Limited Partnership) MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Certain matters discussed herein constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Partnership intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements and are including this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Although the Partnership believes the forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the Partnership can give no assurance that their expectations will be attained. Actual results and timing of certain events could differ materially from those projected in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, without limitation, general economic and real estate conditions, interest rates and unanticipated delays or expenses on the part of the Partnership and their suppliers in achieving year 2000 compliance. Liquidity and Capital Resources At September 30, 1999, the Partnership (including Burbank) had cash and cash equivalents of $291,040, as compared with $450,450 at March 31, 1999. The decrease is primarily attributable to the use of cash for operating activities. This decrease was partially offset by proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities in excess of purchases of marketable securities, as well as cash distributions received from Local Limited Partnerships. Approximately $2,239,000 of marketable securities has been designated as Reserves by the Managing General Partner. The Reserves, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, were established to be used for working capital of the Partnership and contingencies related to the ownership of Local Limited Partnership interests. Management believes that the investment income earned on the Reserves, along with cash distributions received from Local Limited Partnerships, will be sufficient to fund the Partnership's ongoing operations and any contingencies that may arise. Reserves may be used to fund Local Limited Partnership operating deficits if the Managing General Partner deems such funding appropriate. Since the Partnership invests as a limited partner, the Partnership has no contractual duty to provide additional funds to Local Limited Partnerships beyond its specified investment. Thus, at September 30, 1999, the Partnership had no contractual or other obligation to any Local Limited Partnership, which had not been paid or provided for. In the event a Local Limited Partnership encounters operating difficulties requiring additional funds, the Partnership might deem it in its best interest to provide such funds, voluntarily, in order to protect its investment. No such event has occurred to date. Cash Distributions No cash distributions were made during the six months ended September 30, 1999. Results of Operations The Partnership's results of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 1999 resulted in net losses of $694,310 and $1,418,227, respectively, as compared to net losses of $715,274 and $1,608,504 for the same respective periods in 1998. The decrease in net loss is primarily attributable to a decrease in equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships, partially offset by an increase in bad debts and legal expenses. Equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships improved due to an increase in losses not recognized by the Partnership for Local Limited Partnerships whose cumulative equity in losses and cumulative distributions exceeded its total investment in those partnerships. BOSTON FINANCIAL QUALIFIED HOUSING TAX CREDITS L.P. V (A Limited Partnership) MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) Property Discussions Most of the 27 Local Limited Partnerships have stabilized operations. The majority of these stabilized properties are operating at break-even or are generating positive operating cash flow. Historic New Center in Detroit, Michigan has been generating operating deficits due to low occupancy and collection problems. However, as previously reported, the Managing General Partner was successful in finalizing the negotiations with the lenders for a loan modification. This loan modification should allow the property to meet debt service coverage and provide capital for the physical improvements. In addition, a new property manager was hired in October 1998. The new property manager will focus on implementing a new marketing strategy and improving rent collections. As of June 30, 1999, occupancy for Historic New Center improved slightly to 95%. Further, the property is operating just above break-even. However, bad debt expense continues to be high as a result of poor collections. The Managing General Partner continues to meet with property management on a monthly basis to work on this issue. Westgate, located in North Dakota, has been experiencing declining occupancy. Occupancy as of March 31, 1999 was 85%. Affiliates of the Managing General Partner have been working with the Local General Partner who has raised some concerns over the long-term financial health of the property. In response to these concerns and to reduce possible future risk, the Managing General Partner consummated the transfer of 50% of the Partnership's capital and profits in the properties to an affiliate of the Local General Partner in November 1997. Subsequently, the Local General Partner transferred both its general partner interest and 48.5% of the partnership interest in Westgate to a non-profit general partner effective June 17, 1999. As a result of this change, the date when the Managing General Partner has the right to transfer the remaining interest to the new Local General Partner was amended to reflect the June 17, 1999 effective date. Accordingly, the Managing General Partner has the right to transfer the Partnership's remaining interest to the new Local General Partner any time after one year from June 17, 1999. Further, the new Local General Partner has the right to call the remaining interest after the tax credit period has expired. As previously reported, in 1997, the Local General Partner of Wheeler House, located in Nashua, New Hampshire was removed due to financial insolvency and an affiliate of the Managing General Partner stepped in as temporary Local General Partner. As the new Local General Partner, the affiliate of the Managing General Partner proceeded to negotiate with the lender on temporary debt restructuring to reduce interest rates and extend the due date of the loan to 1998. At the same time, the Managing General Partner began exploring refinancing opportunities. A potential lender was identified and performed an appraisal in March. The appraisal showed inadequate loan to value coverage. The Managing General Partner is currently negotiating with the lender and is exploring measures to protect the Partnership's investment and the remaining tax credits generated by the property. However, it is possible that the Partnership will not be able to retain its interest in Wheeler House through 1999. A foreclosure would result in recapture of credits, the allocation of taxable income to the Partnership, and loss of future benefits associated with this property. Impact of Year 2000 The Managing General Partner's plan to resolve year 2000 issues involves the following four phases: assessment, remediation, testing and implementation. To date, the Managing General Partner has fully completed an assessment of all information systems that may not be operative subsequent to 1999 and has begun the remediation, testing and BOSTON FINANCIAL QUALIFIED HOUSING TAX CREDITS L.P. V (A Limited Partnership) MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued) Impact of Year 2000 (continued) implementation phase on both hardware and software systems. Because the hardware and software systems of both the Partnership and Local Limited Partnerships are generally the responsibility of obligated third parties, the plan primarily involves ongoing discussions with and obtaining written assurances from these third parties that pertinent systems will be 2000 compliant. In addition, neither the Partnership nor the Local Limited Partnerships are incurring significant additional costs since such expenses are principally covered under service contracts with vendors. As of November 1999, the General Partner is in the final stages of its Year 2000 remediation plan and believes all major systems are compliant; any systems still being updated are not considered significant to the Partnership's operations. However, despite the likelihood that all significant year 2000 issues are expected to be resolved in a timely manner, the Managing General Partner has no means of ensuring that all systems of outside vendors or other entities that impact operations will be 2000 compliant. The Managing General Partner does not believe that the inability of third parties to address their year 2000 issues in a timely manner will have a material impact on the Partnership. However, the effect of non-compliance by third parties is not readily determinable. Management has also evaluated a worst case scenario projection with respect to the year 2000 and expects any resulting disruption of either the Managing General Partner's activities or any Local Limited Partnership's operations to be short-term inconveniences. Such problems, however, are not likely to fully impede the ability to carry out necessary duties of the Partnership. Moreover, because expected problems under a worst case scenario are not extensively detrimental, and because the likelihood that all systems affecting the Partnership will be compliant before 2000, the Managing General Partner has determined that a formal contingency plan that responds to material system failures is not necessary.
