Part I
------
Item 1. Business.
--------
Copley Pension Properties VI; A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") (formerly New England Pension Properties VI; A Real Estate
Limited Partnership) was organized under the Uniform Limited Partnership Act of
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on October 16, 1987, to invest primarily in
newly constructed and existing income-producing real properties.
The Partnership was initially capitalized with contributions of $2,000 in
the aggregate from Sixth Copley Corp. (the "Managing General Partner") and GCOP
Associates Limited Partnership (the "Associate General Partner") (collectively,
the "General Partners") and $10,000 from Copley Real Estate Advisors, Inc. (the
"Initial Limited Partner"). The Partnership filed a Registration Statement on
Form S-11 (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on October 26, 1987, with respect to a public offering of 80,000
units of limited partnership interest at a price of $1,000 per unit (the
"Units") with an option to sell up to an additional 80,000 Units (an aggregate
of $160,000,000). The Registration Statement was declared effective on January
20, 1988.
The first sale of Units occurred on July 28, 1988, at which time the
Initial Limited Partner withdrew its contribution from the Partnership.
Investors were admitted to the Partnership thereafter at monthly closings; the
offering terminated and the last group of subscription agreements was accepted
by the Partnership on December 31, 1988. At the termination of the offering, a
total of 48,788 Units had been sold, a total of 6,396 investors had been
admitted as limited partners (the "Limited Partners") and a total of $48,511,620
net of discounts had been contributed to the capital of the Partnership. The
remaining 111,212 Units were de-registered on February 10, 1989.
As of December 31, 1998 the Partnership is invested in the two real
property investments described below. During 1990, a joint venture in which the
Partnership was a partner sold its interest in a third real estate investment
located in Chino Hills, California. The Partnership made a distribution to the
Limited Partners in the amount of $48.17 per Unit. During 1994, a joint venture
in which the Partnership was a partner sold its interest in a fourth investment
located in Phoenix, Arizona. The Partnership made a distribution to the Limited
Partners of $182.85 per Unit. In 1997, the Partnership sold a fifth investment
located in Farmers Branch, Texas. The Partnership made a capital distribution to
the Limited Partners of $88.84 per Unit. During 1998, two joint ventures in
which the Partnership was a partner sold their respective interests in a sixth
and a seventh investment in Petaluma, California and Frederick, Maryland. The
Partnership made capital to the Limited Partners distributions of $87.72 and
$334.29 per unit, respectively. The Partnership has no current plans to
renovate, improve or further develop any of its real property investments. In
the opinion of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership, the properties
are adequately covered by insurance.
The Partnership has no employees. Services are performed for the
Partnership by the Managing General Partner and affiliates of the Managing
General Partner.
A. Industrial Building in Carson, California ("Wilmington Industrial").
-------------------------------------------------------------------
On July 18, 1988 the Partnership acquired a 60% interest in a joint venture
with an affiliate of The Hewson Company. On November 15, 1989, the Partnership
agreed to increase its maximum commitment from $6,685,000 to $7,285,000. On
February 1, 1991, the Partnership agreed to further increase its maximum
commitment to $8,085,000. The Partnership made capital contributions totaling
$7,774,402. As of December 31, 1991,
because of the developer partner's inability to fund its share of capital
contributions, the Partnership assumed 100% ownership of the joint venture's
assets, which consist primarily of approximately 5.77 acres of land in Carson,
California and an approximately 115,732 square foot multi-tenant industrial
building located thereon. As of December 31, 1998, the building was 100% leased.
B. Industrial Building in Itasca, Illinois ("Prentiss Copystar").
-------------------------------------------------------------
On May 23, 1991, the Partnership acquired a 51.75% interest in a joint
venture formed with Copley Pension Properties VII; A Real Estate Limited
Partnership, an affiliate of the Partnership (the "Affiliate") with a 23.25%
interest, and with an affiliate of Prentiss Properties, Ltd. As of December 31,
1998, the Partnership had contributed $2,296,411 to the capital of the joint
venture, of which $63,563 had been returned to the Partnership. Of the capital
contributed and not returned, $1,542,848 is characterized as Senior Capital and
$690,000 is characterized as Junior Capital. The joint venture agreement
entitles the Partnership to receive a preferred compounded monthly return of 11%
per annum of which the return on Senior Capital will be payable currently and
the return on Junior Capital may accrue and compound monthly if sufficient cash
flow is not available therefor. If the Senior Capital is repaid prior to the
termination of the joint venture, the Partnership will be entitled to receive a
return on the Senior Capital at the lesser of 11% per annum or the interest rate
for treasury bonds having a maturity date coinciding with the termination of the
joint venture, plus 75 basis points. The joint venture agreement also entitles
the Partnership to receive 51.75% of the net proceeds of sales and financings
after return of its capital and 51.75% of cash flow remaining after payment of
the preferred return.
The joint venture owns approximately 3.75 acres of land in Itasca, Illinois
and during 1991 completed construction thereon of an approximately 70,535 square
foot single-story industrial building. At December 31, 1998, the building was
100% leased to a single tenant for a term which expires in 1999. The tenant has
an option that commenced in September, 1995 to purchase the facility at fair
market value. As of December 31, 1998, the tenant has not expressed any interest
in exercising the option.

Following is information regarding the competitive market conditions for
each of the Partnership's properties. This information has been gathered from
sources deemed reliable. However, the Partnership has not independently
verified the information and, as such, cannot guarantee its accuracy or
completeness:
Industrial Building in Carson, California
- -----------------------------------------
The property is located in the South Bay sub-market, within the greater Los
Angeles industrial market. The South Bay sub-market, with 3,905 industrial
buildings totaling approximately 200 million square feet, represents
approximately 23% of the total Los Angeles industrial market. Leasing activity
in 1998 in the South Bay industrial market totaled 12 million square feet,
approximately 38% higher than in 1997, and the vacancy rate dipped to 5.5% at
year-end, compared to 5.8% in 1997. The unemployment rate in the submarket was
6.7%, essentially unchanged from year-end 1997.
Industrial Building in Itasca, Illinois
- ---------------------------------------
This industrial building is located west of Chicago in northeast DuPage County.
Northeast DuPage has the highest concentration of industrial space of any
submarket in DuPage County. Most tenants in this submarket rely heavily on
close proximity to O'Hare International Airport and convenient access to
Interstates 355, 290, 90 and the Elgin-O'Hare Expressway. The O'Hare Area
market consists of approximately 109 million square feet of industrial space, of
which approximately 6.1% was vacant at year-end 1998, compared to 7.2% at year-
end 1997. Approximately 1 million square feet of space was added to the market
and rental rates were largely unchanged during the year.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
-------------------
The Partnership is not a party to, nor are any of its properties
subject to, any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
-----------------------------------------------------
No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the
fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
PART II
-------
Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder
----------------------------------------------------------------
Matters.
---------
There is no active market for the Units. Trading in the Units is
sporadic and occurs solely through private transactions.
As of December 31, 1998, there were 6,389 holders of Units.
The Partnership's Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited
Partnership dated July 28, 1988, as amended to date (the "Partnership
Agreement"), requires that any Distributable Cash (as defined therein) be
distributed quarterly to the partners in specified proportions and priorities.
There are no restrictions on the Partnership's present or future ability to make
distributions of Distributable Cash. For the year ended December 31, 1998, cash
distributions paid in 1998 or distributed after year end with respect to 1998 to
the Limited Partners as a group totaled $22,855,715, including $20,589,024 of
returned capital from the proceeds of joint venture sales and $491,783 of
returned capital from original working capital reserves. For the year ended
December 31, 1997, cash distributions paid in 1997 or distributed after year end
with respect to 1997 to the Limited Partners as a group totaled $8,111,492,
including $4,334,326 of returned capital from the proceeds of a property sale
and $968,442 of returned capital from original working capital reserves.
Cash distributions exceeded net income in 1998 and 1997 and therefore
resulted in a reduction of partners' capital. Cash distributions in 1998 and
1997 exceeded cash provided by operating activities. Reference is made to the
Partnership's Statement of Partners' Capital (Deficit) and Statement of Cash
Flows in Item 8 hereof.

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 1988 and a total of 48,788 units were sold. The
Partnership received proceeds of $43,472,858, net of selling commissions and
other offering costs, which have been used for investment in real estate, for
the payment of related acquisition costs or retained as working capital
reserves. The Partnership currently holds the two investments described in A.
and B. of Item 1 hereof. In addition, one investment was sold in each of 1990,
1994 and 1997 and two investments were sold in 1998. Through December 31, 1998,
capital of $37,654,578 ($771.80 per limited partnership unit) has been returned
to the limited partners; $36,194,353 as a result of sales and $1,460,225 as a
result of a discretionary reduction of original working capital previously held
in reserves.
On August 7, 1998, the Waterford Apartments, in Frederick, Maryland, which
was owned by the Partnership (75%) and an affiliate (25%), was sold to an
institutional buyer which is unaffiliated with the Partnership. The Partnership
received its share of the net proceeds totaling $16,338,750, after closing
costs, and recognized a gain of $6,227,526 ($126.37 per limited partnership
unit). A disposition fee of $490,500 was accrued but not paid to AEW Real
Estate Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor"). On August 26, 1998, the Partnership made
a capital distribution of $16,309,341 ($334.29 per limited partnership unit)
from the proceeds of the sale.
On July 14, 1998, a joint venture in which the Partnership held a 50%
interest, sold the White Phonic property in Petaluma, Cafifornia, to an
unaffiliated third party for a total gross sale price of $5,380,000. The
Partnership received its share of the net proceeds of $4,279,751 after closing
costs, representing a return of capital and accrued interest plus its
participation in net sales proceeds of $965,671 and recognized a gain of
$1,335,808 ($27.06 per limited partnership unit). A disposition fee of $161,400
was accrued but not paid to the Advisor. On July 30, 1998, the Partnership made
a capital distribution of $4,279,683 ($87.72 per limited partnership unit) from
the proceeds of the sale.
At December 31, 1998, the Partnership had $2,605,486 in cash and cash
equivalents, of which $177,914 was used for cash distributions to partners on
January 28, 1998; the remainder is being retained as working capital reserves.
The source of future liquidity and cash distributions to partners will be
primarily cash generated by the Partnership's cash and cash equivalents and real
estate investments. Distributions of cash from operations relating to the first
and second quarters of 1998 were made at an annualized rate of 6.25% on the
adjusted capital contribution. Distributions of cash from operations relating to
the third and fourth quarters of 1998 were made at an annualized rate of 6.25%
on the weighted average adjusted capital contribution due to the mid-quarter
sales of White Phonic and Waterford Apartments as well as a distribution of
original working capital during the fourth quarter of 1998. Also during the
fourth quarter of 1998, a distribution of $4.76 per limited partnership unit was
made from operational cash previously held in reserves. Distributions of cash
from operations relating to the first three quarters of 1997 were made at the
annualized rate of 5.5% on the adjusted capital contribution.
The fourth quarter distribution of cash from operations was made at the
annualized rate of 6.25% on the weighted average capital contribution. Also
during the fourth quarter of 1997, a distribution of $14.98 per limited
partnership unit was made from operational cash previously held in reserves.
The carrying value of real estate investments in the financial statements
at December 31, 1998 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 December 31, 1998, the appraised value of
each of the Partnership's real estate investments exceeded their related
carrying value by an aggregate of approximately $2,556,000. The current
appraised value of real estate investments has been estimated by the Managing
General Partner and is generally based on a combination of traditional appraisal
approaches performed by the Advisor and independent appraisers. Because of the
subjectivity inherent in the valuation process, the estimated current appraised
value may differ significantly from that which could be realized if the real
estate were actually offered for sale in the marketplace.
Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure
------------------------------
The Year 2000 Issue is a result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Computer programs
that have date-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year
1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other
things, a temporary inability to process transactions or engage in normal
business operations.
The Partnership relies on AEW Capital Management L.P. ("AEW Capital
Management"), the parent of AEW Real Estate Advisors, Inc., to generate
financial information and to provide other services which are dependent on the
use of computers. The Partnership has obtained assurances from AEW Capital
Management that:
. AEW Capital Management has developed a Year 2000 Plan (the "Plan")
consisting of five phases: inventory, assessment, testing,
remediation/repair and certification.
. As of September 30, 1998, AEW Capital Management had completed the
inventory and assessment phases of this Plan and had commenced the
testing and remediation/repair of internal systems.
. AEW Capital Management expects to conclude the internal testing,
remediation/repair and certifications of its Plan no later than June
30, 1999.
The Partnership also relies on joint venture partners and/or property managers
to supply financial and other data with respect to its real properties. The
Partnership is in the process of surveying these third party providers and
assessing their compliance with Year 2000 requirements. To date, the
Partnership is not aware of any problems that would materially impact its
results of operations, liquidity or capital
resources. However, the Partnership has not yet obtained written assurances that
these providers would be Year 2000 compliant.
The Partnership currently does not have a contingency plan in the event of a
particular provider or system not being Year 2000 compliant. Such a plan will
be developed if it becomes clear that a provider (including AEW Capital
Management) is not going to achieve its scheduled compliance objectives by June
30, 1999. The inability of one of these providers to complete its Year 2000
resolution process could materially impact the Partnership. In addition, the
Partnership is also subject to external forces that might generally affect
industry and commerce, such as utility or transportation company Year 2000
compliance failures and related service interruptions. Given the nature of its
operations, the Partnership will not incur any costs associated with Year 2000
compliance. All such costs are borned by AEW Capital Management and the
property managers.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
FORM OF REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS
The Wilmington Industrial investment is a wholly-owned property.
Effective July 1, 1994, the Stemmons Industrial joint venture investment was
converted to a wholly-owned property; the property was subsequently sold in
September 1997. The Prentiss Copystar investment is a joint venture.
OPERATING FACTORS
The Partnership's two industrial properties (Prentiss Copystar and
Wilmington ) were 100% leased at December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997.
As discussed above, the Partnership sold its Stemmons Industrial
investment on September 29, 1997, and recognized a gain of $248,172. Stemmons
Industrial was vacant at the time of sale, as it had been since February 1996,
with the expiration of a short term lease for 82% of the space.
As discussed above, the White Phonic industrial property was sold on July
14, 1998, and the Partnership recognized a gain of $1,335,808. At the time of
the sale, White Phonic was 100% leased to a single tenant, as it had been since
September 30, 1997.
In addition, the Waterford Apartments was sold on August 7, 1998, and the
Partnership recognized a gain of $6,227,526. At the time of the sale, the
Waterford Apartments was 96% leased. At December 31, 1997 it was 93% leased.
INVESTMENT ACTIVITY
Interest income on cash equivalents and short-term investments decreased
by approximately $56,000 or 20% compared to 1997 due primarily to lower average
investment balances as a result of the sale of investments previously discussed.
Interest income on cash equivalents and short-term investments increased by
approximately $7,000 compared to 1996 due primarily to higher average investment
balances as a result of the temporary investment of the receipt of the Stemmons
Industrial sales proceeds.
1998 COMPARED TO 1997
Exclusive of net losses from operations from Stemmons Industrial of
($172,798) in 1997, total real estate operations for 1998 was $962,716, a
decrease from $1,698,187 for the comparable period of 1997. The decrease of
approximately $735,000 or 43% is primarily due to lower joint venture earnings
as a result of the sale of White Phonic and Waterford Apartments.
The decrease in operating cash flow of approximately $330,000 between 1997
and 1998 is primarily due to the decrease in distributions from joint ventures
as a result of sales and increases in working capital.
1997 COMPARED TO 1996
Exclusive of net losses from operations from Stemmons Industrial of
($172,798) in 1997 and ($242,558) in 1996, total real estate operations for 1997
was $1,698,187, an increase from $1,567,860 for the comparable period of 1996.
Operating results at Waterford Apartments increased by $142,000 primarily due to
higher rental rates combined with a decrease in depreciation expense related to
personal property that became fully depreciated. These improvements in
operating results were partially offset by an increase in property operating
expenses primarily due to increases in salary expense and real estate taxes.
Operating results at Prentiss also improved, by approximately $29,000, due to a
reduction in real estate taxes combined with a decrease in amortization expense
related to leasing commissions that became fully amortized. Conversely,
operating income at Wilmington decreased approximately $55,000, primarily due to
higher legal expenses and an allowance for bad debt associated with long
outstanding tenant receivables. Depreciation expense also increased due to the
addition of tenant improvements in the second half of 1996.
Cash flow from operations did not change significantly between the two
periods ended December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996.
PORTFOLIO EXPENSES
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. General and administrative expenses
consist primarily of real estate appraisal, printing, legal, accounting and
investor servicing fees.
1998 COMPARED TO 1997
The Partnership management fee decreased approximately $103,000 between
1998 and 1997 due to less operational cash available for distributions as a
result of the sale of Stemmons Industrial in 1997, and the sales of White Phonic
and Waterford Apartments in 1998. General and administrative expenses increased
approximately $3,500 or 2% primarily due to an increase in investor servicing
fees in 1998.
1997 COMPARED TO 1996
The Partnership management fee increased approximately $75,000 between
1997 and 1996 due to management fees incurred due to a special distribution of
previously undistributed operating reserves and to the increase in the fourth
quarter 1997 distribution rate. General and administrative expenses decreased
approximately $22,000 primarily due to a decrease in professional fees for 1997
which was the result of a reduction in accounting, legal and appraisal fees.
INFLATION
- ---------
By their nature, real estate investments tend not to be adversely affected
by inflation. Inflation may result in appreciation in the value of the
Partnership's real estate investments over time if rental rates and replacement
costs increase. Declines in property values during the period of Partnership
operations, due to market and economic conditions, have overshadowed the
positive affect inflation may have on the value of the Partnership's
investments.

derivative commodity instruments at or during the year ended December 31, 1998.

To the Partners
COPLEY PENSION PROPERTIES VI;
A REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
In our opinion, based upon our audits and the reports of other auditors for the
years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the financial statements listed in
the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Copley Pension Properties VI; A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") at December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements are the responsibility of Sixth Copley Corp., the Managing
General Partner of the Partnership; our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
financial statements of the Partnership's Waterford Apartments and White Phonic
joint venture investees (collectively, the "Ventures") for the year ended
December 31, 1996 which results of operations are recorded using the equity
method of accounting in the Partnership's financial statements. Equity in joint
venture income for the Ventures aggregated $1,002,020 for the year ended
December 31, 1996. We also did not audit the financial statements of 21136
Wilmington Avenue, a wholly-owned property, for the year ended December 31, 1996
which statements reflect operating income of $346,024 for the year ended
December 31, 1996. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose
reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein,
insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the equity in joint venture
income for the Ventures for the year ended December 31, 1996 and for the amounts
for 21136 Wilmington Avenue for the year ended December 31, 1996 is based solely
on the reports of the other auditors. We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by the Managing General Partner, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits and the reports of other auditors for the years ended December 31, 1998,
1997 and 1996 provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

COPLEY PENSION PROPERTIES VI;
A REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
- ----------------------------------
General
-------
Copley Pension Properties VI; A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the
"Partnership") is a Massachusetts limited partnership organized for the purpose
of investing primarily in newly constructed and existing income-producing real
properties. It primarily serves as an investment for qualified pension and
profit sharing plans and other organizations intended to be exempt from federal
income tax. The Partnership commenced operations in July 1988, and acquired the
two real estate investments it currently owns prior to the end of 1991. It
intends to dispose of its investments within eight to twelve years of their
acquisition, and then liquidate.
The Managing General Partner of the Partnership is Sixth Copley Corp., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of AEW Real Estate Advisors, Inc. ("AEW"), formerly
known as Copley Real Estate Advisors, Inc. ("Copley"). The associate general
partner is GCOP Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited
partnership. Subject to the Managing General Partner's overall authority, the
business of the Partnership is managed by AEW pursuant to an advisory contract.
On December 10, 1996, Copley's parent, New England Investment Companies,
Limited Partnership ("NEIC") a publicly traded master limited partnership,
acquired certain assets subject to then existing liabilities from Aldrich,
Eastman & Waltch, Inc. and its affiliates and principals (collectively, "the AEW
operations"). Simultaneously, a new entity, AEW Capital Management, L.P., was
formed into which NEIC contributed its interest in Copley and its affiliates.
As a result, the AEW operations were combined with Copley to form the business
operations of AEW Capital Management, L.P. At year end 1997, NEIC completed a
restructuring plan under which it contributed all of its operations to a newly
formed private partnership, NEIC Operating Partnership, L.P., in exchange for a
general partnership interest in the newly formed entity. Accordingly, at
December 31, 1997, AEW Capital Management, L.P. was wholly owned by NEIC
Operating Partnership, L.P. AEW is a subsidiary of AEW Capital Management, L.P.
Effective April 1, 1998, NEIC changed its name to Nvest, L.P. and NEIC Operating
Partnership, L.P. changed its name to Nvest Companies, L.P.
Prior to August 30, 1996, New England Mutual Life Insurance Company ("The
New England") was NEIC's principal unit holder and owner of all of the
outstanding stock of NEIC's general partner. On August 30, 1996, The New
England merged with and into Metropolitan Life Insurance Company ("Met Life").
Met Life is the surviving entity and, therefore, through a wholly owned
subsidiary, became the owner of the units of partnership interest previously
owned by The New England and of the stock of NEIC's general partner.
Management
AEW, as advisor, is entitled to receive stipulated fees from the
Partnership in consideration of services performed in connection with the
management of the Partnership and the acquisition and disposition of Partnership
investments in real property. Partnership management fees are 9% of
distributable cash from operations, as defined, before deducting such fees. The
deferred management fees of $112,441 incurred through 1990 were paid to AEW in
September 1994 with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Lakewood
Apartments. AEW is also reimbursed for expenses incurred in connection with
administering the Partnership ($17,000 in 1998, $17,026 in 1997, and $21,352 in
1996). Acquisition fees were paid in an amount equal to 2% of the gross
proceeds from the offering, at the time commitments were initially funded.
Disposition fees are limited to the lesser of 3% of the selling price of the
property, or 50% of the standard real estate commission customarily charged by
an independent real estate broker. Payments of disposition fees are subject to
the prior receipt by the limited partners of their capital contributions plus a
stipulated return thereon. Deferred disposition fees were $1,369,577 and
$717,677 at December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
New England Securities Corporation ("NESC"), an indirect subsidiary of Met
Life, is engaged by the Partnership to act as its unit holder servicing agent.
Fees and out-of-pocket expenses for such services totaled $10,287, $9,669 and
$9,211 in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Fees to Back Bay Advisors, L.P., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Nvest Companies, L.P., for short-term investment
advisory services totaled $0, $5,200 and $6,278, for the same annual periods.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ---------------------------------------------------
Accounting Estimates
--------------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires the Managing General Partner to make
estimates affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and of
revenues and expenses. In the Partnership's business, certain estimates require
an assessment of factors not within management's control, such as the ability of
tenants to perform under long-term leases and the ability of the properties to
sustain their occupancies in changing markets. Actual results, therefore, could
differ from those estimates.
Real Estate Joint Ventures
--------------------------
Investments in joint ventures including loans, which are in substance real
estate investments, are stated at cost plus (minus) equity in undistributed
joint venture income (losses). Allocations of joint venture income (losses)
were made to the Partnership's venture partners as long as they had substantial
economic equity in the project. Currently, the Partnership records an amount
equal to 100% of the operating results of each joint venture, after the
elimination of all inter-entity transactions, except for the two ventures which
include an affiliate of the Partnership, which has substantial economic equity
in the respective projects.
Property
--------
Property includes land and buildings, which are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation, and other operating net assets (liabilities). The
Partnership's initial carrying value of a property previously owned by a joint
venture equals the Partnership's carrying value of the prior investment on the
conversion date.
Capitalized Costs, Depreciation and Amortization
------------------------------------------------
Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Significant
improvements and renewals are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of the buildings and
improvements. Leasing costs are also capitalized and amortized over the related
lease term.
Acquisition fees have been capitalized as part of the cost of real estate
investments. Amounts not related to land are being amortized using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the underlying property.
Certain tenant leases provide for rental increases over the respective
lease terms. Rental revenue is being recognized on a straight-line basis over
the lease terms.
Realizability of Real Estate Investments
----------------------------------------
The Partnership considers a real estate investment to be impaired when it
determines the carrying value of the investment is not recoverable through
expected undiscounted cash flows generated from the operations and disposition
of the property. The impairment loss is based on the excess of the investment's
carrying value over its estimated fair market value. For investments held for
sale, the impairment loss also includes estimated costs of sale. Property held
for sale is not depreciated during the holding period.
Carrying value may be greater or less than current appraised value. At
December 31, 1998, the appraised values of investments exceeded the related
carrying value by an aggregate of approximately $2,556,000. At December 31,
1997, the appraised values of investments exceeded the related carrying values
by an aggregate of approximately $8,558,000.
The current appraised value of real estate investments has been estimated
by the Managing General Partner and is generally based on a combination of
traditional appraisal approaches performed by AEW and independent appraisers.
Because of the subjectivity inherent in the valuation process, the estimated
current appraised value may differ significantly from that which could be
realized if the real estate were actually offered for sale in the marketplace.
Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
-------------------------------------------
Cash equivalents are stated at cost, plus accrued interest. The
Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a
maturity of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents; otherwise, they are
classified as short-term investments.
The Partnership has the positive intent and ability to hold all short-term
investments to maturity; therefore, short-term investments are carried at cost,
plus accrued interest which approximates market value. At December 31, 1997,
all investments were in commercial paper with less than seven months remaining
to maturity.
Deferred Disposition Fees
-------------------------
Disposition fees due to AEW related to sales of investments are included
in the determination of gains or losses resulting from such transactions.
According to the terms of the advisory contract, payment of such fees has been
deferred until the limited partners first receive their capital contributions,
plus stipulated returns thereon.
Income Taxes
------------
A partnership is not liable for income taxes and, therefore, no provision
for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership. A
proportionate share of the Partnership's income is reportable on each partner's
tax return.
Per Unit Computations
---------------------
Per unit computations are based on the number of units of limited
partnership interest outstanding during the year. The actual per unit amount
will vary by partner depending on the date of admission to, or withdrawal from,
the Partnership.
Segment Data
------------
Effective January 1, 1998, the Partnership adopted Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments on an Enterprise
and Related Information" (FAS 131). Based on the criteria established in FAS
131, the Managing General Partner has determined that the Partnership operates
in one operating segment which is investing in real estate properties which are
domiciled in the United States of America.
Reclassifications
-----------------
Certain amounts in prior year financial statements have been reclassified
to conform with the current year presentation.
NOTE 3 - REAL ESTATE JOINT VENTURES
- -----------------------------------
The Partnership had invested in seven real estate joint ventures,
organized as general partnerships with a real estate management/development firm
and, in three cases, with an affiliate of the Partnership. One joint venture
sold its property in 1990; another joint venture investment was restructured
into a wholly-owned property in 1991. During 1994, the Lakewood joint venture
sold its property and the Stemmons Industrial investment was converted to a
wholly-owned property; the latter property was subsequently sold in 1997. In
1998, the White Phonic and Waterford Apartments joint ventures were sold in July
and August, respectively. The Partnership committed to make capital
contributions to the ventures, which are generally subject to preferential cash
distributions at a specified rate and to priority distributions with respect to
sale or refinancing proceeds. The joint venture agreements provide for the
funding of cash flow deficits by the venture partners in proportion to ownership
interests, and for the dilution of their ownership share in the event a venture
partner does not contribute proportionately.
The respective real estate management/development firm is responsible for
day-to-day development and operating activities, although overall authority and
responsibility for the business is shared by the venturers. The real estate
management/development firm, or its affiliates, also provides various services
to the respective joint venture for a fee.
The following is a summary of cash invested in joint ventures, net of
returns of capital and excluding acquisition fees:

Waterford Apartments
--------------------
On March 20, 1989, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of Bozzuto and Associates, and with an affiliate of the Partnership,
to develop and operate a garden-style apartment complex. The Partnership and
its affiliate collectively had a 65% ownership interest in the joint venture.
The Partnership committed to contribute up to $14,100,000 to the capital of the
joint venture. The preferential return related to $3,525,000 was payable
currently only to the extent of available cash flow. In the event of a sale or
refinancing prior to the tenth anniversary of the joint venture agreement, 25%
of the Partnership's contribution would first be repaid unconditionally. The
remaining 75% would be repaid subject to a premium designed to preserve the
stipulated rate of return through the ninth anniversary of the joint venture
agreement.
On August 7, 1998, the joint venture sold the Waterford Apartments to an
institutional buyer which is unaffiliated with the Partnership. The total gross
sale price was $21,800,000. The Partnership received its share of the net
proceeds totaling $16,338,750, after closing costs, and recognized a gain of
$6,227,526 ($126.37 per limited partnership unit). A disposition fee of
$490,500 was accrued but not paid to AEW. On August 26, 1998, the Partnership
made a capital distribution of $16,309,341 ($334.29 per limited partnership
unit) from the proceeds of the sale.
White Phonic
------------
On April 30, 1990, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of William C. White and George Vila to develop and operate an
office/industrial building. The Partnership committed to make a maximum capital
contribution of $3,450,000. During the first ten years, up to 1% of the
preferential return could be deferred to the extent payments could not be made
from operating and extraordinary cash flow.
On July 14, 1998 the joint venture, in which the Partnership held a 50%
interest, sold the White Phonic property in Petaluma, Cafifornia, to an
unaffiliated third party for a total gross sale price of $5,380,000. The
Partnership received its share of the net proceeds of $4,279,751 after closing
costs, representing a return of capital and accrued interest plus its
participation in net sales proceeds of $965,671 and recognized a gain of
$1,335,808 ($27.11 per limited partnership unit). A disposition fee of $161,400
was accrued but not paid to AEW. On July 30, 1998, the Partnership made a
capital distribution of $4,279,683 ($87.72 per limited partnership unit) from
the proceeds of the sale.
Prentiss Copystar
-----------------
On May 23, 1991, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of Prentiss Properties, Ltd., and an affiliate of the Partnership, to
develop and operate an industrial facility. The Partnership and its affiliate
collectively have a 75% interest in the joint venture. The Partnership
committed to make a maximum capital contribution of $2,300,000. The
preferential return related to $690,000 is payable currently only to the extent
of available cash flow. If $1,610,000, or any portion thereof, is returned to
the Partnership between the second and tenth anniversary of the joint venture
agreement, the return will be increased by an amount sufficient to preserve the
stipulated rate of return through the tenth anniversary. Future minimum rents
due to the venture under a non-cancelable operating lease are $281,000 in 1999.
Sale of Lakewood
----------------
On August 12, 1988, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of Evans Withycombe Company, and an affiliate of the Partnership, to
develop and operate an apartment complex. The Partnership and its affiliate
collectively had a 65% interest in the joint venture. The Partnership made
capital contributions totaling $6,731,182.
On August 17, 1994, the joint venture sold its property. After closing
costs, the Partnership received its share of the sale proceeds of $9,131,207 and
recognized a gain of $2,869,376 ($58.23 per limited partnership unit). At that
time, the Partnership also received a preferential return payment of $237,880.
A disposition fee of $318,677 was accrued but not paid to AEW. On September 15,
1994, the Partnership made a capital distribution of $8,920,886 ($182.85 per
limited partnership unit) from the proceeds of this sale. An additional $13,194
was received in 1995 in final settlement of this sale.

NOTE 4 - PROPERTY
- -----------------
On July 18, 1988, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of The Hewson Company to acquire and operate an industrial building
known as Wilmington Industrial in Carson, California. The Partnership made
capital contributions totaling $7,774,402. During 1991, when the venture
partner did not fund its proportionate share of the cash flow deficit, the
Partnership's ownership interest increased to 100%.
On December 7, 1988, the Partnership entered into a joint venture with an
affiliate of The Trammell Crow Company to acquire, rehabilitate and operate an
industrial building known as Stemmons Industrial in Farmers Branch, Texas. The
Partnership made a capital contribution of $5,307,504. Effective July 1, 1994,
this joint venture was dissolved and the venture partner's interest was assigned
to the Partnership. Accordingly, as of this date, the investment has been
accounted for as a wholly-owned property.
On September 29, 1997, the Partnership sold the Stemmons Industrial
property for a gross sales price of $4,500,000. The Partnership received net
proceeds of $4,334,193, after closing costs, and recognized a gain of $248,172
($5.04 per limited partnership unit). A disposition fee of $135,000 was accrued
but not paid to AEW. On October 30, 1997, the Partnership made a capital
distribution of $4,334,326 ($88.84 per limited partnership unit) from the
proceeds of the sale.
The following is a summary of the Partnership's remaining investment in

NOTE 6 - PARTNERS' CAPITAL
- --------------------------
Allocation of net income (losses) from operations and distributions of
distributable cash from operations, as defined, are in the ratio of 99% to the
limited partners and 1% to the general partners. Cash distributions are made
quarterly.
Net sale proceeds and financing proceeds are allocated first to limited
partners to the extent of their contributed capital plus a stipulated return
thereon, as defined, second to pay disposition fees, and then 85% to the limited
partners and 15% to the general partners. The adjusted capital contribution per
limited partnership unit was reduced from $1,000 to $951.83 during 1990, from
$951.83 to $768.98 during 1994, from $768.98 to $660.29 during 1997 and from
$660.29 to $228.20 during 1998. Income from a sale is allocated in proportion
to the distribution of related proceeds, provided that the general partners are
allocated at least 1%. Losses from a sale, and income from a sale if there are
no residual proceeds after the repayment of the related debt, will be allocated
99% to the limited partners and 1% to the general partners.
NOTE 7 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Distributions of cash from operations relating to the quarter ended
December 31, 1998 were made on January 28, 1999 in the aggregate amount of

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Partners
Frederick Partners
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Frederick Partners as of
August 6, 1998 and December 31, 1997, and the related statements of operations,
partners' equity and cash flows for the period January 1, 1998 through August 6,
1998, and for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 Frederick Partners as of
August 6, 1998 and December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations, changes
in partners' equity and its cash flows for the period January 1, 1998 through
August 6, 1998, and for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
August 6, 1998 and December 31, 1997
NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Frederick Partners (the Partnership) was formed as a general partnership
under the laws of the State of Maryland on March 20, 1989, for the purpose
of constructing, owning and operating a rental housing project. The project
consists of 314 units located in Frederick County, Maryland, and is
operating as Crystal Park. During 1990, the construction of the first phase
(Phase I) was completed and rental operations commenced. During 1991,
construction of a second phase of the project (Phase II) was completed and
rental operations commenced. On August 6, 1998, Copley Pension Properties
VI and VII (CPPVI and VII), sold their entire interest in the partnership
and Frederick Bozzuto Limited Partnership (FBLP) and Frederick Bozzuto Two
Limited Partnership (FBLP Two) sold 34% of their 35% interest in the
Partnership and distributed the remaining 1% to an affiliate. Prior to such
sale, all leases between the Partnership and tenants of the property were
operating leases.
Use of Estimates
----------------
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 could differ from those
estimates.
Investment in Real Estate
-------------------------
Investment in real estate is carried at cost. Depreciation is provided for
in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to
operations over their estimated service lives using accelerated methods.
Rental Income
-------------
Rental income is recognized as rentals become due. Rental payments
received in advance are deferred until earned.
Income Taxes
------------
No provision or benefit for income taxes has been included in these
financial statements since taxable income or loss passes through to, and is
reportable by, the partners individually.
