PART I
Item 1. Business
PaineWebber Insured Mortgage Partners 1-B, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a
Delaware limited partnership formed primarily for the purpose of investing in a
diversified portfolio of federally insured or coinsured mortgage loans
("Participating Insured Mortgage Loans") through the purchase of certain
mortgage-backed securities ("GNMA Securities") guaranteed as to their payment of
principal and interest by the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA").
On May 16, 1988, the Partnership commenced the sale of Limited Partner Interests
(the "Units"), which are evidenced by Depositary Receipts (at $100 per Unit).
Depositary Receipts were offered to the public by PaineWebber Incorporated
("PWI"), as sales agent, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 filed
under the Securities Act of 1933 (Registration No. 33-11911). The Partnership
sold 551,604 Units of Depositary Receipts from May 16, 1988 to May 1, 1989,
representing capital contributions of approximately $55,160,000. Unitholders
will not be required to make any additional capital contributions.
The Units represent an interest assigned to persons who purchased Units
("Unitholders") from the initial limited partner of the Partnership pursuant to
the Partnership Agreement, which interest is the equivalent of a limited
partnership interest. Although Unitholders are not limited partners of the
Partnership, as Unitholders they are entitled to the same economic benefits,
including the same share of income, gains, losses, deductions, credits and cash
distributions, as if they were limited partners holding the number of limited
partnership interests represented by their Units.
The Partnership originally invested in three Participating Insured Mortgage
Loans, which were originated under or in connection with Federal Housing
Administration ("FHA") insurance programs to finance or refinance the
acquisition, construction or substantial rehabilitation of privately owned and
operating multi-family residential rental projects, (the "Projects"). The
Partnership purchased each of the GNMA Securities with proceeds raised through
its public offering from an FHA-approved mortgagee/coinsurer and GNMA
issuer/servicer. The Partnership was expected to make an investment in a fourth
Participating Insured Mortgage Loan and entered into a commitment to fund a $4.5
million loan on a to-be-built project in Orlando, Florida. During fiscal 1991,
the prospective borrower elected not to proceed with the Orlando development
and, as a result, the commitment to purchase the related GNMA securities
subsequently expired. The efforts of the General Partner to obtain a suitable
investment to replace the expired commitment were not successful, in large part
due to changes instituted by the Department of Housing and Urban Development
which made the type of insured financing that the Partnership can invest in very
difficult to obtain. As a result, the General Partner decided to return the
majority of the previously committed funds to the Unitholders. A distribution of
approximately $4 million was paid to the Unitholders in June of 1991. The
remainder of the previously committed funds was added to the Partnership's cash
reserves. As discussed further below, one of the Partnership's Insured Mortgage
Loans was repaid in full during fiscal 1992, and the proceeds were distributed
to the Unitholders in June of 1993.
Each Participating Insured Mortgage Loan has two components, a base
component consisting of the principal amount of the mortgage loan plus interest
at a stated rate thereon and a contingent component providing for the payment of
contingent interest ("Contingent Interest") from net cash flow from Project
operations and from capital appreciation, if any, realized as a result of a
Project sale or refinancing. The principal of and the stated interest on each
Participating Insured Mortgage Loan is coinsured by the FHA ("FHA Insurance")
and is represented by a GNMA Security, the interest rate on which (the "Base
Interest") is equal to the stated interest rate on the Participating Insured
Mortgage Loan minus certain fixed fees payable to GNMA and the FHA mortgagee.
Neither FHA Insurance nor any GNMA security will provide for or support the
payment of Contingent Interest.
The Partnership has also invested in non-participating mortgage-backed
securities ("MBS") backed by single-family or multi-family mortgage loans issued
or originated in connection with the housing programs of GNMA. Investments in
non-participating MBS were limited to no more than 30% of the original net
offering proceeds.
Until May 1992, the Partnership held a Participating Insured Mortgage loan
with respect to an apartment complex known as the Casablanca Apartments in
Boynton Beach, Florida. During fiscal 1992, the owner of the Casablanca
Apartments complex defaulted on the scheduled debt service payments to the GNMA
issuer. The default triggered the prepayment provisions of the Partnership's
GNMA mortgage-backed security. Consequently, on May 26, 1992, GNMA prepaid the
outstanding balance of the principal and accrued interest to the Partnership
pursuant to the terms of the mortgage-backed security agreement. The Partnership
distributed the proceeds received from the Casablanca prepayment, which
aggregated $12,521,000, to the Unitholders concurrent with the regular quarterly
distribution paid on June 15, 1993.
The objectives of the Partnership are to protect and preserve the
Partnership's capital, to make quarterly distributions of cash attributable to
payments of principal and interest (including Contingent Interest) on
Participating Insured Mortgage Loans and MBS and to provide gains through the
appreciation of properties financed with Participating Insured Mortgage Loans.
Cumulative cash distributions to the Unitholders through July 31, 1998
have totalled approximately $51,429,000, or $942 per original $1,000 investment
for the Partnership's earliest investors. Such distributions include a return of
capital totalling approximately $472 per $1,000 investment resulting from the
expired commitment and the prepayment discussed above, along with the scheduled
amortization of mortgage principal and principal prepayments from the
Partnership's mortgage-backed securities. The return of capital to date includes
special distributions of $47.13 and $10.00 per original $1,000 investment paid
on March 14, 1997 and March 13, 1998, respectively, which resulted from excess
Partnership reserves which had accumulated from prepayment activity on the
non-participating MBS. Quarterly distributions had been paid at a rate of 8.25%
per annum on Unitholders' remaining invested capital from inception through the
distribution made on March 14, 1997 for the quarter ended January 31, 1997.
Beginning with the distribution made on June 13, 1997 for the quarter ended
April 30, 1997, the Partnership reduced the regular distribution rate to 6.5%
per annum due to a decline in the rate of principal prepayments on the
non-participating MBS. Unitholders' remaining capital accounts as of July 31,
1998 totalled approximately $528 per $1,000 investment. Through July 31, 1998,
the Partnership had received $186,000 of Contingent Interest payments from its
Participating Insured Mortgage Loans.
As of July 31, 1998, the Partnership holds Participating Insured Mortgage
Loans secured by GNMA securities as described below.

(1) See Notes to the Financial Statements filed with this Annual Report for a
description of the agreements through which the Partnership has acquired
these investments.
The future performance of the Partnership will depend, in part, upon
future interest rate fluctuations, which cannot be predicted. In addition, the
Partnership's overall operating performance is subject to all of the risks
normally associated with real estate investments, including: reliance on the
owners' operating skills, including their ability to maintain occupancy levels,
meet operating expenses, maintain the property and maintain adequate insurance
coverage; adverse changes in general and/or local economic conditions; changes
in governmental regulations, real estate zoning laws, or tax laws; and other
circumstances over which the Partnership may have little or no control.
The Partnership is engaged solely in the business of investing in real
estate through Participating Insured Mortgage Loans and conventional MBS,
therefore, presentation of information about industry segments is not
applicable. The Partnership has no employees. Subject to the General Partner's
overall authority, the business of the Partnership is managed by PaineWebber
Properties Incorporated ("PWPI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PWI.
The General Partner of the Partnership (the "General Partner") is First
Insured Mortgage Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. First Insured
Mortgage Partners, Inc. (the "Managing General Partner"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of PaineWebber Group, Inc. ("PaineWebber"), is the Managing General
Partner of the General Partner. PWI and Properties Associates 1988, L.P.
("PA1988"), a Virginia limited partnership, are the limited partners of the
General Partner. The officers and directors of the Managing General Partner and
certain limited partners of PA1988 are also officers and directors of PWI and
PWPI. The initial limited partner of the Partnership is PaineWebber Depositary
Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PaineWebber.
The terms of transactions between the Partnership and affiliates of the
General Partner of the Partnership are set forth in Items 11 and 13 below to
which reference is hereby made for a description of such terms and transactions.
Item 2. Properties
The Partnership owns no real estate. The Partnership has acquired

Interest and Related Security Holder Matters
At July 31, 1998, there were 3,122 investors holding Depositary Receipts
in the Partnership. There is currently no public market for the resale of Units,
and it is not anticipated that a public market for Units will develop. Upon
request, the General Partner will endeavor to assist a Unitholder desiring to
transfer his Units and may utilize the services of PWI in this regard. The price
to be paid for the Units will be subject to negotiation by the Unitholder. The
General Partner will not redeem or repurchase Units.
Reference is made to Item 6 below for a discussion of cash distributions
made to the Unitholders during fiscal 1998.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Partnership offered depositary units (at $100 per Unit) representing
limited partnership interests to the public from May 16, 1988 to May 1, 1989
pursuant to a Registration Statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933.
Gross proceeds of approximately $55,160,000 were received by the Partnership
from the offering and, after deducting selling expenses and offering costs,
approximately $42,908,000 was invested in mortgage securities. Approximately $4
million of uninvested offering proceeds was returned to the Unitholders in June
of 1991 after a proposed investment, for which such funds had been committed,
could not be completed. The Partnership originally invested approximately
$30,697,000 in three Participating Insured Mortgage Loans originated in
connection with Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") insurance to finance the
construction of multi-family residential rental projects. The Partnership also
originally invested approximately $12,211,000 in non-participating
mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") collateralized by pools of single-family or
multi-family mortgage loans that are guaranteed by GNMA. In May 1992, one of the
Participating Insured Mortgage Loans was prepaid at par as a result of a default
by the underlying property owner. Proceeds from this prepayment were distributed
to the Unitholders in June 1993 after an examination of reinvestment
alternatives failed to identify any suitable replacement investments.
The Partnership is currently analyzing potential disposition strategies for
its remaining investments. As part of these efforts, the Partnership is
evaluating the current economic benefits it would receive if the owners of the
Emerald Cove Apartments and the Quarter Mill Apartments were to prepay their
participating loans within the next one to two years. The current strength of
the national real estate market and the favorable interest rate environment for
the sale or refinancing of multi-family apartment properties has increased the
likelihood of one or both of the Partnership's participating loans being prepaid
in the near term. While the Partnership cannot require either of the owners to
prepay their loans, the Partnership could possibly sell one or both of the
participating loans and some or all of the non-participating mortgage-backed
security pools. In this regard, a key consideration is the strength of the
buying markets for these types of investments. Also, as part of any sale of its
two participating mortgage loans, the Partnership would expect to receive fair
value for its entitlement to participate in potential cash flow increases and
capital appreciation from each property as well as for its entitlement to
receive prepayment penalties if either of the participating loans were prepaid
by the property owners. As discussed further below, as of the present date the
amounts of the prepayment penalties which could be received on the two remaining
participating loans range from 6% to 2% of the outstanding loan balances
depending on the date of the prepayment. Although no assurances can be given, it
is currently contemplated that sales or prepayments of the Partnership's
remaining investments could be completed within the next one to two years. The
disposition of all of the Partnership's investments would be followed by a
formal liquidation of the Partnership.
The Partnership's non-participating MBS have coupon interest rates ranging
from 7.5% to 9.5%. Based on current market interest rate levels, the aggregate
market value of these securities at the present time is above both the aggregate
face value and amortized cost, which includes any unamortized discounts or
premiums. As of July 31, 1998, the Partnership's two remaining Participating
Insured Mortgage Loans, which carry coupon interest rates of 8.5% and 8.75%,
also had estimated market values slightly above their face values due to a
variety of factors, including the participation features. Increases in market
interest rates and/or deterioration in general real estate market conditions in
the near term could cause the aggregate market value of the Participating
Insured Mortgage Loans and the portfolio of non-participating MBS investments to
fall below face value and/or amortized cost. In the event that such
circumstances were to occur, management is not prohibited from selling any
security at a loss and may do so if it is believed that such a sale would be in
the best interests of the Partnership.
Over the past several years, generally low market interest rates have
prompted a high level of refinancing activity, resulting in significant
prepayments on the Partnership's non-participating mortgage-backed securities.
Such prepayments had the effect of reducing the Partnership's investment income
and cash flows from operating activities and increasing the outstanding balance
of the Partnership's cash reserves. Since it was deemed unlikely that there
would be a default on either of the Partnership's two remaining multi-family
participating loans, and since the current rates of return available on
non-participating mortgage-backed security investments did not warrant
reinvestment by the Partnership, management concluded during fiscal 1997 that it
would be in the best interests of the Unitholders to return the portion of the
Partnership's cash reserves which exceeded expected future requirements.
Consequently, the Partnership distributed approximately $2,600,000 of its excess
reserves, or $47.13 per original $1,000 investment, in a special distribution
made on March 14, 1997. Regular quarterly distributions are comprised of
investment income and return of capital which results from the scheduled
amortization of mortgage principal on all of the debt securities as well as
principal prepayments from the non-participating GNMA mortgage-backed
securities. Such principal prepayments are unpredictable and, as noted above,
had been high during recent years but declined during fiscal 1997, resulting in
a reduction in cash flows from investing activities. Based on this decline in
the rate of principal prepayments and the expectation that this decline would
continue in the future, the Partnership reduced the regular quarterly
distribution rate effective for the payment made on June 13, 1997 for the third
quarter of fiscal 1997. The distribution rate declined from 8.25% per annum to
6.5%. During fiscal 1998, however, actual principal prepayment levels were
higher than projected resulting in an increase in cash flows from investing
activities. As a result, the Partnership made a special capital distribution of
excess cash totaling approximately $552,000, or $10.00 per original $1,000
investment, to the Limited Partners on March 13, 1998 concurrent with the
regular quarterly distribution for the period ended January 31, 1998.
Distributions are expected to continue to be made at a rate of 6.5% per annum on
remaining invested capital for the balance of calendar year 1998, and the
Partnership's cash reserve levels will be reviewed again in early 1999 to
determine whether another special capital distribution will be made in 1999.
The Partnership's two remaining Participating Insured Mortgage Loans are
secured by the Emerald Cove and Quarter Mill apartment complexes. The occupancy
level at Emerald Cove averaged 96% for the year ended July 31, 1998 compared to
93% for fiscal 1997. Due to the increased competition from several newly
developed properties in the local Charlotte, North Carolina submarket during
fiscal 1997, the use of rental concessions had been necessary at Emerald Cove to
maintain the property's occupancy levels. However, because the property's
occupancy increased during fiscal 1998, the property's leasing team discontinued
offering rental concessions on both new and renewal leases. The property's
rental rates and occupancy levels remain comparable to those of directly
competitive properties in the local market. Prepayment of the Partnership's
Emerald Cove Participating Insured Mortgage Loan was restricted through March
1997 and then requires a prepayment penalty which declines ratably, from 5% to
2%, over the next four years. During the quarter ended April 30, 1998, the
Emerald Cove owner informed the Partnership that the property was being actively
marketed for sale and asked that the Partnership specify the terms upon which it
would accept prepayment of the participating loan. During the quarter ended July
31, 1998, the owner of the Emerald Cove Apartments approached the Partnership
regarding a prepayment of the participating mortgage loan as part of a potential
sale of the Emerald Cove property. However, subsequent to the July 31, 1998
fiscal year end, the Partnership was informed that the potential buyer and the
owner were not able to agree on final terms and that a sale would not occur. As
previously reported, the owner of the Emerald Cove Apartments has initiated
discussions of prepayment on several occasions over the past four years, but
none of those discussions have resulted in a prepayment transaction. As a
result, as noted above, the Partnership is presently reviewing other potential
disposition options for its Participating Insured Mortgage Loan investments.
The Quarter Mill Apartments continued its strong operating performance
during fiscal 1998, with an average occupancy level of 98%, unchanged from
fiscal 1997. Because Quarter Mill Apartments participates in the Low Income
Housing Tax Credit Program, its rental rates are based on the metropolitan
area's median family income, rather than on market rent levels. As of July 31,
1998, average rental rates on new leases being signed were up 3.75% from one
year earlier. A strong local rental market, combined with below market rental
rates at Quarter Mill, has resulted in consistently high occupancy levels at the
property. Property operations continue to generate small amounts of excess cash
flow, a portion of which is payable to the Partnership as Contingent Interest.
During fiscal 1998, 1997 and 1996, the Partnership received approximately
$54,000, $49,000 and $46,000, respectively, representing its 30% share of the
surplus cash, as defined. The Quarter Mill Participating Insured Mortgage Loan
became open to prepayment in February 1996 with a specified prepayment penalty
which declines ratably, from 10% to 2%, over five years. During fiscal 1998, the
Partnership and the owner of Quarter Mill engaged in very preliminary
discussions concerning a potential prepayment of the Participating Insured
Mortgage Loan. However, to date no proposals to prepay the loan have been
received from the owner of Quarter Mill.
At July 31, 1998, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $1,702,000. Such amounts will be utilized for distributions to the
Unitholders and for the working capital requirements of the Partnership. The
source of future liquidity and distributions to the Unitholders is expected to
be primarily through interest income and principal repayments from the
Partnership's mortgage securities, money-market interest income from invested
cash reserves, and to a lesser extent from Contingent Interest from
Participating Insured Mortgage Loans and Net Project Residuals from the sale or
refinancing of the properties securing such investments.
As noted above, the Partnership expects to be liquidated within the next
one to two years. Notwithstanding this, the Partnership believes that it has
made all necessary modifications to its existing systems to make them year 2000
compliant and does not expect that additional costs associated with year 2000
compliance, if any, will be material to the Partnership's results of operations
or financial position.
Results of Operations
1998 Compared to 1997
- ---------------------
For the year ended July 31 1998, the Partnership reported net income of
$1,412,000, compared to net income of $1,709,000 for fiscal 1997. This $297,000
decrease in net income resulted from a $193,000 decline in total revenues and a
$104,000 increase in operating expenses. The decline in total revenues can be
attributed to a $126,000 decrease in interest income from Participating Insured
Mortgage Loans and non-participating MBS and a $67,000 reduction in money market
interest income. The decline in interest income from Participating Insured
Mortgage Loans and non-participating MBS resulted mainly from a reduction in the
average outstanding principal balances of such investments due to scheduled
principal amortization on all of the debt securities and prepayments on the MBS.
In addition, the amortization of the net premium on the Partnership's mortgage
securities increased by $43,000 in fiscal 1998 as a result of an acceleration in
the amortization rate due to a reassessment of the expected remaining holding
period of the investments. These unfavorable changes in interest income were
offset slightly by an increase in Contingent Interest. Contingent Interest
received from the Quarter Mill investment increased from $49,000 in fiscal 1997
to $54,000 in fiscal 1998. The decrease in money market interest income was
mainly the result of a decrease in the average outstanding balance of the
Partnership's invested cash reserves subsequent to the special distributions of
excess cash reserves made on March 14, 1997 and March 13, 1998, as discussed
further above. The increase in operating expenses is attributable to a $23,000
increase in general and administrative expenses and a $93,000 increase in
amortization expense. General and administrative expenses were higher primarily
due to increases in the costs of certain required professional services for the
year ended July 31, 1998. Amortization expense increased by $93,000 as a result
of an acceleration in the amortization rate of the Partnership's deferred
expenses. Beginning in fiscal 1998, as noted above, the Partnership reduced the
expected holding period of its remaining investments, which resulted in higher
non-cash amortization charges for the year ended July 31, 1998.
1997 Compared to 1996
- ---------------------
For the year ended July 31 1997, the Partnership reported net income of
$1,709,000, compared to net income of $1,806,000 for fiscal 1996. This $97,000
decrease in net income resulted from a $138,000 decline in total revenues which
was partially offset by a $41,000 reduction in operating expenses. The decline
in total revenues was attributable to a $97,000 decline in interest income from
Participating Insured Mortgage Loans and non-participating MBS and a $44,000
decline in money market interest income. The decline in interest income from
Participating Insured Mortgage Loans and non-participating MBS resulted from a
reduction in the average outstanding principal balances of such investments due
to scheduled principal amortization on all of the debt securities and
prepayments on the MBS. This was offset slightly by an increase in Contingent
Interest. Contingent Interest received from the Quarter Mill investment
increased from $46,000 in fiscal 1996 to $49,000 in fiscal 1997. The decrease in
money market interest income was mainly the result of a decline in the average
outstanding balance of the Partnership's invested cash reserves subsequent to
the $2.6 million special distribution of excess cash reserves made on March 14,
1997, as discussed further above. The decrease in operating expenses resulted
from a $32,000 reduction in general and administrative expenses and a $9,000
decline in management fees. General and administrative expenses decreased due to
a reduction in certain required professional services. The decrease in
management fees reflected the declining principal balances of the Partnership's
outstanding mortgage securities, upon which such fees are primarily based.
1996 Compared to 1995
- ---------------------
For the year ended July 31, 1996, the Partnership reported net income of
$1,806,000, which represents a decrease in net income of $92,000 when compared
to fiscal 1995. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in total revenues
of $79,000. The decrease in total revenues can be attributed to the decrease in
interest income from Participating Insured Mortgage Loans and non-participating
MBS which aggregated $94,000. This decrease resulted from a decline in the
average outstanding principal balances of such investments due to scheduled
principal amortization on all of the debt securities and prepayments on the MBS.
Partially offsetting this decrease in total revenues was an increase in money
market interest of $15,000. The increase in money market interest was mainly due
to an increase in the average outstanding balance of the Partnership's cash
reserves resulting from the MBS prepayment activity. The decrease in net income
was also partly due to an increase in general and administrative expenses of
$24,000 which resulted mainly from an increase in certain required professional
services during fiscal 1996. Management fees decreased by $11,000 during fiscal
1996 due to the lower outstanding principal balances of the Partnership's debt
securities on which the fees are partially based. Such decreases have occurred
since the Partnership was fully invested due to scheduled principal amortization
and prepayment activity in the non-participating MBS pools.
Certain Factors Affecting Future Operating Results
- --------------------------------------------------
The following factors could cause actual results to differ materially from
historical results or those anticipated:
Interest Rate Risk. The Partnership's investments are structured to
provide maximum safety of principal. The Partnership's principal investments in
both Participating Insured Mortgage Loans and conventional mortgage-backed
securities are 100% guaranteed by GNMA in the event of defaults by the
underlying property owners. Obligations of GNMA are backed by the full faith and
credit of the Federal government. The Partnership does face potential interest
rate risk in the event that the Partnership, as expected, liquidates its
investments in Participating Insured Mortgage Loans and non-participating
mortgage-backed securities prior to the scheduled maturity dates of such
investments. Depending on the general level of market interest rates at the time
of the sale of any of the Partnership's mortgage security investments, the
market value of the investments may be higher or lower than the outstanding
principal balances. Nonetheless, since the Partnership is not required to be
liquidated prior to the scheduled maturity dates, management can limit the
exposure to market risk by attempting to time the liquidation of the
Partnership's investments to coincide with a period of favorable interest rates.
However, management is not prohibited from selling any security at a loss and
may do so if it is believed that such a sale would be in the best interests of
the Partnership. The market value of the Partnership's Participating Insured
Mortgage Loans is also affected by the value, if any, that is attributed to the
participation features of such loans. Such value is impacted by the real estate
investment and competitive risks outlined below. The Partnership is also subject
to possible reinvestment risk to the extent that its principal investments are
prepaid prior to the Partnership's expected liquidation period. Depending on the
general level of market interest rates at the time of such a prepayment, the
Partnership or an individual Unitholder might be unable to earn a comparable
yield on a similar low-risk investment upon the reinvestment of such funds.
Real Estate Investment Risks. Real property investments are subject to
varying degrees of risk. Revenues and property values may be adversely affected
by the general economic climate, the local economic climate and local real
estate conditions, including (i) the perceptions of prospective tenants of the
attractiveness of the property; (ii) the ability to retain qualified individuals
to provide adequate management and maintenance of the property; (iii) the
inability to collect rent due to bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants or
otherwise; and (iv) increased operating costs. Real estate values may also be
adversely affected by such factors as applicable laws, including tax laws,
interest rate levels and the availability of financing.
Competition. The financial performance of the real estate investments
securing the Partnership's debt securities will be significantly impacted by the
competition from comparable properties in their local market areas. The
occupancy levels and rental rates achievable at the properties are largely a
function of supply and demand in the markets. In many markets across the
country, development of new multi-family properties has increased significantly
over the past two years. Existing apartment properties in such markets could be
expected to experience increased vacancy levels, declines in effective rental
rates and, in some cases, declines in estimated market values as a result of the
increased competition. There are no assurances that these competitive pressures
will not adversely affect the operations and/or market values of the properties
securing the Partnership's investments in the future.
Availability of a Pool of Qualified Buyers. The availability of a pool of
qualified and interested buyers for the Partnership's remaining assets is
critical to the Partnership's ability to realize the estimated fair market
values of such investments at the time of their final dispositions. Demand by
buyers of multi-family apartment properties is affected by many factors,
including the size, quality, age, condition and location of the subject
property, potential environmental liability concerns, the liquidity in the debt
and equity markets for asset acquisitions, the general level of market interest
rates and the general and local economic climates. Demand by buyers of
mortgage-backed securities is largely a function of the current interest rate
environment, although general real estate market factors are considered as well.
Inflation
- ---------
The Partnership completed its ninth full year of operations in fiscal
1998. The effects of inflation and changes in prices on the Partnership's
operating results to date have not been significant.
Inflation in future periods is likely to cause increases in Partnership
operating expenses without a corresponding increase in revenues, which are
principally derived from fixed interest rates on debt securities.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

delegated to PWPI by the General Partner. However, the General Partner retains
general responsibility for partnership business and oversees partnership
activities. The General Partner also supervises the registration and marketing
of the Units, approves all budgets for the Partnership prepared by PWPI and
makes all final decisions with respect to the Partnership's investments and
their acquisition and disposition.
Certain of the officers and directors of the Managing General Partner of
the General Partner, First Insured Mortgage Partners, Inc., a Delaware

(f) None of the directors and officers were involved in legal proceedings
which are material to an evaluation of his or her ability or integrity as a
director or officer.
(g) Compliance With Exchange Act Filing Requirements: The Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 requires the officers and directors of the Managing General
Partner, and persons who own more than ten percent of the Partnership's limited
partnership units, to file certain reports of ownership and changes in ownership
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and ten-percent
beneficial holders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Partnership
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it, the
Partnership believes that, during the year ended July 31, 1998 all filing
requirements applicable to the officers and directors of the Managing General
Partner and ten-percent beneficial holders were complied with.
Item 11. Executive Compensation
The directors and officers of the Managing General Partner receive no
current or proposed remuneration from the Partnership.
The General Partner is entitled to receive a share of the Partnership's
cash distributions and a share of profits and losses. These items are described
under Item 13.
The Partnership paid cash distributions to the Unitholders on a quarterly
basis at a rate of 8.25% per annum on remaining invested capital from November
15, 1988 to March 14, 1997. Effective for the distribution payment made on June
13, 1997 for the quarter ended April 30, 1997, the distribution rate was lowered
to 6.5% per annum on remaining invested capital. However, the Partnership's
Units of Depositary Receipts are not actively traded on any organized exchange,
and, accordingly, no accurate price information exists for these Units.
Therefore, a presentation of historical Unitholder total returns would not be
meaningful.
Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
(a) The Partnership is a limited partnership issuing Depositary Units
which represent units of assigned limited partnership interest, not voting
securities. All the outstanding stock of the Managing General Partner of the
General Partner, First Insured Mortgage Partners, Inc., is owned by PaineWebber.
PA1988 is a Virginia limited partnership, certain limited partners of which are
also officers of PWPI. PaineWebber Depositary Corporation (the "Corporate
Limited Partner"), a Delaware corporation and an affiliate of the General
Partner, is the Initial Limited Partner. No Unitholder is known by the
Partnership to own beneficially more than 5% of the outstanding interests of the
Partnership.
(b) The directors and officers of the Managing General Partner do not
directly own any Units of limited partnership interest of the Partnership. No
director or officer of the Managing General Partner possesses a right to acquire
beneficial ownership of Units of limited partnership interest of the
Partnership.
(c) There exists no arrangement, known to the Partnership, the operation
of which may, at a subsequent date, result in a change in control of the
Partnership.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
The General Partner of the Partnership is First Insured Mortgage Partners,
L.P. (the "General Partner"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PaineWebber Group
Inc. ("PaineWebber"). The Managing General Partner of the General Partner is
First Insured Mortgage Partners, Inc., (the "Managing General Partner") a
wholly-owned subsidiary of PaineWebber. The officers and directors of the
Managing General Partner are also officers and/or directors of PaineWebber
Properties Incorporated ("PWPI"). Properties Associates 1988, L.P. ("PA1988")
and PaineWebber Incorporated ("PWI") are the limited partners of the General
Partner. PA1988 is a Virginia limited partnership in which certain officers of
PWPI are the individual limited partners. Subject to the Managing General
Partner's overall authority, the business of the Partnership is managed by PWPI,
which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PWI. The General Partner and other
PaineWebber affiliates will receive fees and compensation, determined on an
agreed-upon basis, in consideration of various services performed in connection
with the sale of the Units, the management of the Partnership and the
acquisition, management, financing and disposition of Partnership investments.
The Partnership entered into a Sales Agreement with PWI under which PWI
acted as sales agent for the offering of Units. In connection with the sale of
Units, PWI was to be paid sales commissions of up to 6% of the offering
proceeds. Sales commissions paid to PWI aggregated $3,278,000 through the end of
the offering period.
Origination fees were payable directly to the General Partner and its
affiliates by project owners in recognition of the participation feature of
their Participating Insured Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to 2% of the
principal balance of each Participating Insured Mortgage Loan.
In connection with the acquisition of mortgage securities, the General
Partner and its affiliates were to receive acquisition fees in an amount not to
exceed 1.5% of the gross offering proceeds for services rendered in connection
with the investment by the Partnership in mortgage securities. Acquisition fees
of $827,000 were paid by the Partnership to the General Partner and its
affiliates. The General Partner and its affiliates also received a
non-accountable acquisition expense allowance of 1.5% of the Gross Offering
Proceeds. Acquisition expenses in excess of 1.5% of the Gross Offering Proceeds
were to be paid by the General Partner. Acquisition expenses aggregating
$827,000 were paid to the General Partner and its affiliates.
For services rendered in managing the business of the Partnership, the
Partnership shall pay the General Partner and its affiliates an Asset Management
Fee equal to 0.75% per annum of the outstanding principal balance of the
mortgage securities of the Partnership. Asset management fees of $168,000 were
earned by the General Partner and its affiliates for the year ended July 31,
1998. PWPI also furnishes additional asset management and advisory services to
the Partnership and receives additional asset management fees as compensation
for such services. The additional management fees paid by the Partnership
totalled $33,000 for the year ended July 31, 1998.
Generally, all distributable cash, as defined, for each fiscal year shall
be distributed quarterly in the ratio of 97% to the Unitholders, 1% to the
General Partner and 2% to PWPI as the additional asset management fee referred
to above. Capital distributions (including distributions of principal
repayments) will be distributed 100% to the Unitholders until they have received
the return of their capital contributions and then to the General Partner until
it has received a return of its capital contribution. Thereafter, capital
distributions shall be distributed in varying proportions to the Unitholders and
General Partner, as specified in the Partnership Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, taxable income or loss
of the Partnership will be allocated 98.98% to the Unitholders and 1.02% to the
General Partner. Income or loss arising from a sale or refinancing of investment
properties will be allocated to the Unitholders and the General Partner
generally as residual proceeds are distributed.
An affiliate of the General Partner performs certain accounting, tax
preparation, securities law compliance and investor communications and relations
services for the Partnership. The total costs incurred by this affiliate in
providing such services are allocated among several entities, including the
Partnership. Included in general and administrative expenses for the year ended
July 31, 1998 is $94,000, representing reimbursements to this affiliate of the
General Partner for providing such services to the Partnership.
The Partnership uses the services of Mitchell Hutchins Institutional
Investors, Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins") for the managing of cash assets. Mitchell
Hutchins is a subsidiary of Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management, Inc., an
independently operated subsidiary of PaineWebber. Mitchell Hutchins earned fees
of $6,000 (included in general and administrative expenses) for managing the
Partnership's cash assets for the year ended July 31, 1998. Fees charged by
Mitchell Hutchins are based on a percentage of invested cash reserves which
varies based on the total amount of invested cash which Mitchell Hutchins
manages on behalf of PWPI.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Partners
PaineWebber Insured Mortgage Partners 1-B, L.P.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of PaineWebber Insured
Mortgage Partners 1-B, L.P. as of July 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related
statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in partners' capital
(deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July

the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedule are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of PaineWebber Insured Mortgage
Partners 1-B, L.P. at July 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 31,

material respects the information set forth therein.

PAINEWEBBER INSURED MORTGAGE PARTNERS 1-B, L.P.
Notes to Financial Statements
1. Organization and Nature of Operations
-------------------------------------
PaineWebber Insured Mortgage Partners 1-B, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership, was organized for the purpose of investing in a diversified
portfolio of federally insured or coinsured mortgage loans ("Participating
Insured Mortgage Loans") through the purchase of certain mortgage-backed
securities ("GNMA securities"). The Partnership has also invested in
non-participating mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") backed by single-family or
multi-family mortgage loans issued or originated in connection with the housing
programs of the Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA"). Investments
in non-participating MBS were limited to no more than 30% of the original net
offering proceeds. On May 16, 1988, the Partnership commenced the sale of
Limited Partnership Interests (the "Units"), which are evidenced by Depositary
Receipts (at $100 per Unit). The Partnership's initial capital was $3,000,
representing capital contributions of $1,000 by the General Partner and $2,000
by the Corporate Limited Partner (PaineWebber Depositary Corporation). The
Partnership issued 551,604 Units from May 16, 1988 to May 1, 1989, representing
capital contributions of $55,160,425. The Units represent an interest assigned
to persons who purchased Units ("Unitholders") from the initial limited partner
of the Partnership pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, which interest is the
equivalent of a limited partnership interest. Although Unitholders are not
limited partners of the Partnership, as Unitholders they are entitled to the
same economic benefits, including the same share of income, gains, losses,
deductions, credits and cash distributions, as if they were limited partners
holding the number of limited partnership interests represented by their Units.
The Partnership originally invested in three Participating Insured
Mortgage Loans, which were originated under or in connection with Federal
Housing Administration ("FHA") insurance programs to finance or refinance the
acquisition, construction or substantial rehabilitation of privately owned and
operating multi-family residential rental projects, (the "Projects"). The
Partnership purchased each of the GNMA Securities with proceeds raised through
its public offering from an FHA-approved mortgagee/coinsurer and GNMA
issuer/servicer. The Partnership was expected to make an investment in a fourth
Participating Insured Mortgage Loan and entered into a commitment to fund a $4.5
million loan on a to-be-built project in Orlando, Florida. During fiscal 1991,
the prospective borrower elected not to proceed with the Orlando development
and, as a result, the commitment to purchase the related GNMA securities
subsequently expired. The efforts of the General Partner to obtain a suitable
investment to replace the expired commitment were not successful, in large part
due to changes instituted by the Department of Housing and Urban Development
which made the type of insured financing that the Partnership can invest in very
difficult to obtain. As a result, the General Partner decided to return the
majority of the previously committed funds to the Unitholders. A distribution of
approximately $4 million was paid to the Unitholders in June of 1991. The
remainder of the previously committed funds was added to the Partnership's cash
reserves. Until May 1992, the Partnership held a Participating Insured Mortgage
loan with respect to an apartment complex known as the Casablanca Apartments in
Boynton Beach, Florida. During fiscal 1992, the owner of the Casablanca
Apartments complex defaulted on the scheduled debt service payments to the GNMA
issuer. The default triggered the prepayment provisions of the Partnership's
GNMA mortgage-backed security. Consequently, on May 26, 1992, GNMA prepaid the
outstanding balance of the principal and accrued interest to the Partnership
pursuant to the terms of the mortgage-backed security agreement. The Partnership
distributed the proceeds received from the Casablanca prepayment, which
aggregated $12,521,000, to the Unitholders concurrent with the regular quarterly
distribution paid on June 15, 1993.
The Partnership is currently analyzing potential disposition strategies
for its remaining investments. As part of these efforts, the Partnership is now
evaluating the current economic benefits it would receive if the owners of the
Emerald Cove Apartments and Quarter Mill Apartments were to prepay their
participating loans within the next one to two years. While the Partnership
cannot require either of the owners to prepay their loans, the Partnership could
possibly sell one or both of the participating loans and some or all of the
non-participating mortgage backed securities pools. In this regard, a key
consideration is the strength of the buying markets for these types of
investments. Also, as part of any sale of its two participating mortgage loans,
the Partnership would expect to receive fair value for its entitlement to
participate in potential cash flow increases and capital appreciation from each
property, as well as for its entitlement to receive prepayment penalties if
either of the participating loans were prepaid by the property owners. Although
no assurances can be given, it is currently contemplated that sales or
prepayments of the Partnership's remaining investments could be completed within
the next one to two years. The disposition of all of the Partnership's
investments would be followed by a formal liquidation of the Partnership.
2. Use of Estimates and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
---------------------------------------------------------------
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets
and liabilities as of July 31, 1998 and 1997 and revenues and expenses for each
of the three years in the period ended July 31, 1998. Actual results could
differ from the estimates and assumptions used.
The Partnership accounts for investments in debt securities in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS No. 115). Under the
provisions of SFAS No. 115, investments in debt and equity securities are
classified as either trading securities, held-to-maturity, or available for sale
based on management's intentions as to their ultimate disposition. The
Partnership's debt securities have been classified as available for sale as of
July 31, 1998 and 1997 and are stated at fair value on the accompanying balance
sheets at those dates. In accordance with SFAS No. 115, the net unrealized
holding gain or loss as of the date that the statement was first applied was
recorded as an adjustment of the balance of a separate component of equity.
Future unrealized holding gains or losses on securities classified as available
for sale are reported as a net amount in the separate component of equity until
realized. Unrealized holding gains or losses on debt securities are also
recognized as a component of other comprehensive income in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income," which the Partnership adopted in fiscal 1998. Information regarding the
fair value of the Partnership's debt securities is disclosed in Notes 4 and 5.
Beginning in fiscal 1998, the related discounts or premiums for these GNMA
securities are being amortized using the effective interest method over the
expected remaining holding period of the investments of three years. Prior to
fiscal 1998, the premium and discounts were being amortized over the original
estimated holding period of fifteen years. The effect of this change in
accounting estimate was to decrease interest income by $31,000 in fiscal 1998.
In addition to the debt securities which are carried at fair value on the
Partnership's balance sheets, the cash and cash equivalents appearing on the
accompanying balance sheets represent financial instruments for purposes of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments." The carrying amounts of cash and cash
equivalents approximate fair value as of July 31, 1998 and 1997 due to the
short-term maturities of these instruments.
Deferred expenses consist of legal fees incurred in connection with the
organization of the Partnership and acquisition fees and acquisition expenses
paid to the General Partner and its affiliates as compensation for analyzing,
structuring and negotiating the Partnership's investments. Organizational costs
have been amortized using the straight-line method over a five-year period.
Beginning in fiscal 1998, acquisition fees and expenses are being amortized
using the straight-line method over the expected remaining holding periods of
the investments of three years. Prior to fiscal 1998, the acquisition fees and
expenses were being amortized over the original estimated holding period of
fifteen years. The effect of this change in accounting estimate was to increase
amortization expense by $93,000 in fiscal 1998. In April 1998, the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 98-5,
"Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities" (SOP 98-5). The acquisition fees
and expenses paid by the Partnership would meet the definition of start-up costs
under the provisions of SOP 98-5, which requires that entities expense the costs
of start-up activities as incurred. SOP 98-5 is required to be adopted by all
entities for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1998. The effect on the Partnership of adopting SOP 98-5 when required in fiscal
2000 would be that the remaining unamortized acquisition fees and expenses of
$177,000 would all be expensed in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000 rather
than ratably over the entire fiscal year.
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Partnership considers all highly
liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash
equivalents. The Partnership's cash reserves and excess cash flow are generally
invested in money market instruments, principally overnight investment-grade
commercial paper.
No provision for income taxes has been made as the liability for such taxes
is that of the partners and Unitholders rather than the Partnership. The
principal differences between the Partnership's accounting on a federal income
tax basis and the accompanying financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles relate to the recognition of unrealized
gains and losses on debt securities and the calculation of amortization on the
premiums and discounts on debt securities.
3. The Partnership Agreement and Related Party Transactions
--------------------------------------------------------
The General Partner of the Partnership is First Insured Mortgage Partners,
L.P. (the "General Partner"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PaineWebber Group
Inc. ("PaineWebber"). The Managing General Partner of the General Partner is
First Insured Mortgage Partners, Inc., (the "Managing General Partner") a
wholly-owned subsidiary of PaineWebber. The officers and directors of the
Managing General Partner are also officers and/or directors of PaineWebber
Properties Incorporated ("PWPI"). Properties Associates 1988, L.P. ("PA1988")
and PaineWebber Incorporated ("PWI") are the limited partners of the General
Partner. PA1988 is a Virginia limited partnership in which certain officers of
PWPI are the individual limited partners. Subject to the Managing General
Partner's overall authority, the business of the Partnership is managed by PWPI,
which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PWI. The General Partner and other
PaineWebber affiliates will receive fees and compensation, determined on an
agreed-upon basis, in consideration of various services performed in connection
with the sale of the Units, the management of the Partnership and the
acquisition, management, financing and disposition of Partnership investments.
The Partnership entered into a Sales Agreement with PWI under which PWI
acted as sales agent for the offering of Units. In connection with the sale of
Units, PWI was to be paid sales commissions of up to 6% of the offering
proceeds. Sales commissions paid to PWI aggregated $3,278,000 through the end of
the offering period.
Origination fees were payable directly to the General Partner and its
affiliates by project owners in recognition of the participation feature of
their Participating Insured Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to 2% of the
principal balance of each Participating Insured Mortgage Loan.
In connection with the acquisition of mortgage securities, the General
Partner and its affiliates were to receive acquisition fees in an amount not to
exceed 1.5% of the gross offering proceeds for services rendered in connection
with the investment by the Partnership in mortgage securities. Acquisition fees
of $827,000 were paid by the Partnership to the General Partner and its
affiliates. The General Partner and its affiliates also received a
non-accountable acquisition expense allowance of 1.5% of the Gross Offering
Proceeds. Acquisition expenses in excess of 1.5% of the Gross Offering Proceeds
were to be paid by the General Partner. Acquisition expenses aggregating
$827,000 were paid to the General Partner and its affiliates.
For services rendered in managing the business of the Partnership, the
Partnership shall pay the General Partner and its affiliates an Asset Management
Fee equal to 0.75% per annum of the outstanding principal balance of the
mortgage securities of the Partnership. Asset management fees of $168,000,
$175,000 and $184,000 were earned by the General Partner and its affiliates for
the years ended July 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. PWPI also furnishes
additional asset management and advisory services to the Partnership and
receives additional asset management fees as compensation for such services. The
additional management fees paid by the Partnership totalled $33,000, $38,000 and
$38,000 for the years ended July 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Accounts
payable - affiliates at July 31, 1998 and 1997 consists of $27,000 and $29,000,
respectively, of management fees payable to the General Partner and its
affiliates.
Generally, all distributable cash, as defined, for each fiscal year shall
be distributed quarterly in the ratio of 97% to the Unitholders, 1% to the
General Partner and 2% to PWPI as the additional asset management fee referred
to above. Capital distributions (including distributions of principal
repayments) will be distributed 100% to the Unitholders until they have received
the return of their capital contributions and then to the General Partner until
it has received a return of its capital contribution. Thereafter, capital
distributions shall be distributed in varying proportions to the Unitholders and
General Partner, as specified in the Partnership Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, taxable income or tax
loss of the Partnership will be allocated 98.98% to the Unitholders and 1.02% to
the General Partner. Income or loss arising from a sale or refinancing of
investment properties will be allocated to the Unitholders and the General
Partner generally as residual proceeds are distributed. Allocations of income or
loss for financial reporting purposes have been made in conformity with
allocations of taxable income or tax loss set forth in the Partnership
Agreement.
Included in general and administrative expenses for the years ended July
31, 1998, 1997 and 1996 is $94,000, $95,000 and $88,000, respectively,
representing reimbursements to an affiliate of the General Partner for providing
certain financial, accounting and investor communication services to the
Partnership.
The Partnership uses the services of Mitchell Hutchins Institutional
Investors, Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins") for the managing of cash assets. Mitchell
Hutchins is a subsidiary of Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management, Inc., an
independently operated subsidiary of PaineWebber. Mitchell Hutchins earned fees
of $6,000, $8,000 and $18,000 (included in general and administrative expenses)
for managing the Partnership's cash assets during fiscal 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
4. Mortgage-Backed Securities

As discussed further in Note 2, the Partnership's investments in MBS are
carried at fair value as of July 31, 1998 and 1997. Investments in MBS are
valued based on quoted market prices. The amortized cost of the MBS represents
the face value of the securities net of unamortized premium or discount.
Investments in non-participating MBS were limited to no more than 30% of the
original net offering proceeds per the terms of the Partnership's offering
prospectus.
The 9.5% MBS, which were purchased at a discount on December 14, 1988,
carry a coupon interest rate of 9.5% per annum and include loans with scheduled
maturities between June 2009 and December 2009. The 9.0% MBS, which were
purchased at a premium on November 16, 1989, carry a coupon interest rate of
9.0% per annum and include loans with scheduled maturities between June 2001 and
September 2002. The 8.0% MBS, which were purchased at a premium on July 30,
1992, carry a coupon interest rate of 8.0% per annum and include loans with
scheduled maturities in June 2022. The 7.5% MBS, which were purchased at a
discount on October 30, 1992, carry a coupon interest rate of 7.50% per annum

As discussed further in Note 2, the Partnership's investments in
Participating Insured Mortgage Loans are carried at fair value as of July 31,
1998 and 1997. Investments in Participating Insured Mortgage Loans, for which
quoted market prices are not available, are valued by an independent pricing
service which determines the valuations based on a comparison of recent market
trades of securities with similar characteristics. Because of the inherent
uncertainty of valuations, estimated values, as reflected herein, may differ
from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities
existed. Descriptions of the properties financed by the Partnership's loans and
the loan agreements themselves are summarized below:
Quarter Mill Apartments
-----------------------
The Partnership acquired a Participating Insured Mortgage Loan with
respect to a 266-unit apartment complex known as Quarter Mill Apartments located
in Richmond, Virginia (the "Virginia Project"). Construction of the Virginia
Project was completed in November of 1990. Initial closing of this Participating
Insured Mortgage loan took place on August 2, 1989. The project owner is Amurcon
Corporation. The Base Component of this Participating Insured Mortgage Loan is
coinsured by FHA and represented by GNMA Securities with an initial face value
of $7,316,600, which GNMA Securities bore interest at the rate of 10.25% during
construction of the Virginia Project and 8.50% thereafter. Effective May 1,
1991, the construction loan was converted to a permanent loan with a principal
balance of $6,525,000. On June 21, 1991 an additional $791,600 was funded,
completing the Partnership's investment of $7,316,600. Monthly payments of
principal and interest totalling approximately $53,547 are due through maturity,
on October 15, 2031. Scheduled principal repayments of $184,949 have been
received through July 31, 1998.
Emerald Cove Apartments
-----------------------
The Partnership acquired a Participating Insured Mortgage Loan with respect
to a 276-unit apartment complex known as Emerald Cove Apartments in Charlotte,
North Carolina (the "North Carolina Project"). Initial closing of this
Participating Insured Mortgage Loan took place on October 16, 1989. The project
owners are Ronald Curry and Ralph Abercia. The Base Component of this
Participating Insured Mortgage Loan is coinsured by FHA and represented by GNMA
Securities with an initial face value of $10,783,900 at closing, which GNMA
Securities bore interest at the rate of 10.25% during construction of the North
Carolina Project and 8.75% thereafter. During fiscal 1992, the Partnership
funded its remaining commitment on the investment of approximately $1,184,000
and, effective May 1, 1992, the investment was converted to a permanent loan
with a principal balance of $10,776,500. The Partnership paid a premium of
$107,840 to the GNMA issuer to obtain the original loan commitment due to the
fact that the permanent loan interest rate was higher than comparable market
rates at the time of the initial closing. Beginning in fiscal 1998, the premium
is being amortized using the effective interest method over the expected
remaining holding period of the investment of three years. Prior to fiscal 1998,
the premium was being amortized over the original estimated holding period of
fifteen years. The effect of this change in accounting estimate was to decrease
interest income by $12,000 in fiscal 1998. Monthly payments of principal and
interest totalling approximately $81,133 are due through maturity, on August 15,
2031. Scheduled principal repayments of $245,429 have been received through July
31, 1998.
PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO BOTH OF THE PARTICIPATING INSURED MORTGAGE LOANS OF
THE PARTNERSHIP:
The closing of the Participating Insured Mortgage Loans was subject to
conditions with respect to satisfactory completion of construction. The
Partnership purchased the GNMA Securities representing each of the above
Participating Insured Mortgage Loans with proceeds raised through its public
offering from an FHA-approved mortgagee/coinsurer and GNMA issuer/servicer.
As required by the Partnership's investment criteria, the Participating
Insured Mortgage Loans could not be repaid by the applicable project owner, in
whole or in part, for a period of five years from the date of initial
endorsement of each such Loan for FHA Insurance (unless required or permitted by
HUD or as a result of the partial or total destruction or condemnation of the
Project). The Participating Insured Mortgage Loans may thereafter be prepaid at
various premiums which decline over the next four-to-five-year period. After
nine or ten years from the date of initial endorsement of a Participating
Insured Mortgage Loan for FHA Insurance, such loan may be prepaid without
premium. Although the permanent phase of each such Participating Insured
Mortgage Loan has a term of approximately 40 years, payable in substantially
equal installments consisting of principal and interest over such term, each
loan provides the Partnership with the option to require such loan be repaid in
full beginning not later than the twelfth anniversary of its date of initial
endorsement for FHA Insurance.
The Contingent Component of the Participating Insured Mortgage Loans
provides for the payment of Contingent Interest equal to 25% of the Net Project
Cash Flow, if any, (30% for the Virginia Project) and 25% of the Net Project
Residuals, if any, derived from the applicable Project; provided, however, that
to the extent the applicable Project fails to generate certain minimum amounts
of Net Project Cash Flow, the share of Net Project Residuals to which the
Partnership is entitled may be increased to up to 50%. In addition to the
deduction for the outstanding principal balance of the first mortgage relating
to each Participating Insured Mortgage Loan, Net Project Residuals shall also be
reduced by certain FHA-approved development costs and by certain amounts
advanced by the applicable project owner from its own funds to fund operating
deficits or provide working capital for the applicable Project. The obligation
of a project owner to pay Contingent Interest is evidenced by a Subordinated
Promissory Note of such project owner which in turn is secured by a second
mortgage on the applicable Project. The obligations of each project owner to pay
Contingent Interest is secured by a lien on all of the interests in such project
owner. Neither FHA Insurance nor any GNMA Security will provide for the payment
of Contingent Interest with respect to any Participating Insured Mortgage Loan.
No Contingent Interest has been earned with respect to the Emerald Cove
Participating Insured Mortgage Loan to date. During fiscal 1998, 1997 and 1996,
the Partnership received approximately $54,000, $49,000, and $46,000,
respectively, representing its 30% share of the surplus cash generated by the
Quarter Mill property. Such amounts are included in interest income on the
accompanying 1998, 1997 and 1996 statements of income. Cumulative Contingent
Interest received from the Quarter Mill property totalled approximately $186,000
as of July 31, 1998.
The future performance of the Partnership will depend, in part, upon
future interest rate fluctuations, which cannot be predicted. In addition, the
Partnership's overall operating performance is subject to all of the risks
normally associated with real estate investments, including: reliance on the
owners' operating skills, including their ability to maintain occupancy levels,
meet operating expenses, maintain the property and maintain adequate insurance
coverage; adverse changes in general and/or local economic conditions; changes
in governmental regulations, real estate zoning laws, or tax laws; and other
circumstances over which the Partnership may have little or no control.
6. Subsequent Event
----------------
On September 15, 1998, the Partnership distributed $474,000 to the
Unitholders, $4,000 to the General Partner and $9,000 to PWPI as an asset
management fee for the quarter ended July 31, 1998.
