NOTE 3 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT - ------------------------- Distributions of cash from operations relating to the quarter ended June 30, 1996 were made on July 25, 1996 in the aggregate amount of $188,606 ($15.65 per limited partnership unit). Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition - ----------------------------------------------------------- and Results of Operations - ------------------------- Liquidity and Capital Resources The Partnership completed its offering of units of limited partnership interest in December 1990 and a total of 11,931 units were sold. The Partnership received proceeds of $10,097,962, net of selling commissions and other offering costs, which have been used for investment in real estate, used to pay related acquisition costs or retained as working capital reserves. At June 30, 1996, the Partnership had $1,652,874 in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, of which $188,606 was used for cash distributions to the partners on July 25, 1996; the remainder is being retained for working capital reserves. In July 1995, the Partnership reduced these working capital reserves by making a capital distribution of $441,447 ($37 per limited partnership unit). After the distribution, the Partnership's adjusted capital contribution was $963 per unit. The source of future liquidity and cash distributions to partners will be cash generated by the Partnership's real estate and short-term investments. The distribution of cash from operations related to the first two quarters of 1996 was made at the annualized rate of 6.5% on the adjusted capital contribution. The distribution of cash from operations relating to the first two quarters of 1995 was made at the annualized rate of 5.5% on a capital contribution of $1,000 per unit. The distribution rate was increased in 1996 due to improvements in cash flow from the Partnership's investments. The carrying value of real estate investments in the financial statements at June 30, 1996 is at depreciated cost, or if the investment's carrying value is determined not to be recoverable through expected undiscounted future cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to estimated fair market value. The fair market value of such investments is further reduced by the estimated cost of sale for properties held for sale. Carrying value may be greater or less than current appraised value. At June 30, 1996, the appraised values of the Newhew and Shasta Way investments exceeded their carrying values by $1,500,000 and $300,000, respectively. The current appraised value of real estate investments has been determined by the managing general partner and is generally based on a combination of traditional appraisal approaches performed by the Partnership's advisor, Copley Real Estate Advisors, Inc., and independent appraisers. Because of the subjectivity inherent in the valuation process, the current appraised value may differ significantly from that which could be realized if the real estate were actually offered for sale in the marketplace. Results of Operations Form of Real Estate Investments The Newhew and Shasta Way investments have been structured as joint ventures with a real estate management/development firm and, in one case, an affiliate of the Partnership. As of January 1, 1996, the Shasta Way joint venture was restructured, and the management/development firm's interest was assigned to the Partnership and its affiliate in proportion to their respective ownership interests. The Partnership's ownership percentage increased to 42%. Operating Factors Occupancy remained at 100% at Hohokam Corporate Center (Newhew's Phase I investment) during the second quarter of 1996. The property was 83% leased at December 31, 1995, and 100% leased at June 30, 1995. Fairmont Commerce Center (Newhew's Phase II investment) has been 100% leased to two tenants since May 1992. Shasta Way is 100% occupied by a single tenant under a lease which expires December 31, 1998. Investment Results Interest income on cash equivalents and short-term investments for the six months ended June 30, 1996 decreased approximately $19,000, or 32%, compared to the corresponding period in 1995, primarily due to decreased invested balances as a result of the distribution of excess working capital reserves in mid-1995, as well as lower short-term yields. Joint venture earnings were $282,054 and $248,925 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Joint venture earnings in 1996 are comprised of operating income of $159,454 at Newhew and $122,600 at Shasta Way; corresponding 1995 earnings were $139,314 at Newhew and $109,611 at Shasta Way. Operating cash flow decreased by approximately $13,000 between the first six months of 1995 and 1996, primarily due to the timing of distributions from both Shasta Way and Newhew. Portfolio Expenses General and administrative expenses primarily consist of real estate appraisal, legal, accounting, printing and servicing agent fees. These expenses were substantially unchanged between the first six months of 1996 and 1995; increased printing costs and certain professional fees were partially offset by a decrease in legal costs. The Partnership management fee is 9% of distributable cash flow from operations after any increase or decrease in working capital reserves as determined by the managing general partner. Management fees increased between the two six-month periods due to the increase in distributable cash flow.
