Documents Incorporated by Reference: Portions of Parts I, II, III and IV are incorporated by reference to the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. PART I Item 1. Business (a)	General Development of Business. Manhattan Beach Hotel Partners, L.P., formerly Shearson California Radisson Plaza Partners, L.P. (see Item 10. "Certain Matters Involving Affiliates of Manhattan Beach Commercial Properties III Inc."), a Delaware limited partnership (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership"), was formed on September 8, 1987. The Partnership will continue until December 31, 2037 in accordance with the terms of its Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement"), unless terminated earlier pursuant thereto. The affairs of the Partnership are conducted by its general partner, Manhattan Beach Commercial Properties III Inc., formerly Shearson Lehman Commercial Properties III, Inc. (see Item 10. "Certain Matters Involving Affiliates of Manhattan Beach Commercial Properties III Inc."), a Delaware corporation (the "General Partner"), and an affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc. Manhattan Beach Commercial Properties III Depositary, Inc. (the "Assignor Limited Partner"), formerly Shearson Lehman Commercial Properties III Depositary, Inc. (see Item 10. "Certain Matters Involving Affiliates of Manhattan Beach Commercial Properties III Inc."), is the record owner of the limited partnership interests, but the Unitholders are entitled to all the economic and other substantive rights and interests of the underlying limited partnership interests and are entitled to direct any voting of such limited partnership interests. A Unitholder, subject to certain conditions, may convert his Units into limited partnership interests. Purchase of the Property. The Partnership was formed to acquire, own, lease and ultimately sell a leasehold interest in the Radisson Plaza Hotel and Golf Course (the "Property" or the "Hotel"), a 384-room, 287,965 square foot commercial hotel and nine-hole executive golf course located on a 26.3 acre site in the City of Manhattan Beach, Los Angeles County, California (the "City"). The Property was acquired for a purchase price of $56,500,000 on December 1, 1987 from Manhattan Beach Hotel Properties, Ltd., a California limited partnership (the "Seller"), which developed the Property and opened it for occupancy in January 1987. The Hotel is operated subject to a license agreement with Radisson Hotels International, Inc. ("Radisson"). Information regarding Radisson is incorporated by reference to Note 5 "Real Estate Investments" of the Notes to the Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. The Hotel is operated under a management agreement (the "Management Agreement") with Manhattan Beach Management Company, an affiliate of Interstate Hotels Corporation ("Interstate"). Details regarding the Management Agreement are incorporated by reference to Note 6 "Hotel Management Agreement" of the Notes to the Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. The golf course is operated under a long-term operating agreement with Radisson Golf Course Company, Inc., an unaffiliated party. Ground Lease. Information regarding the Ground Lease is incorporated by reference to Note 5 "Real Estate Investments" of the Notes to the Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. The Management Agreement and Hotel Leases. Incorporated by reference to Note 6 "Hotel Management Agreement" of the Notes to the Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. (b)	Financial Information About Industry Segments. The Partnership's sole business is to own and operate the Property. All of the Partnership's revenues, operating profit or loss and assets relate solely to such industry segment. (c)	Narrative Description of Business. The Partnership's principal objectives are to (i) provide quarterly cash distributions, a portion of which are anticipated to be non-taxable due to depreciation deductions, (ii) preserve and protect capital and (iii) achieve long-term appreciation in the value of the Property for distribution upon sale. There can be no assurance that any of such objectives will be achieved by the Partnership. Competition Competition and information with respect to market conditions in the area where the Partnership's Property is located is incorporated by reference to the section entitled Message to Investors of the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. Employees The Partnership's business is managed by the General Partner and the Partnership has no employees. The current hotel staff and other personnel are employees of Interstate. Information regarding Interstate is incorporated by reference to Note 6 "Hotel Management Agreement" of the Notes to Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. Item 2. The Property Incorporated by reference to Note 5 "Real Estate Investments" of the Notes to Financial Statements and the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. Item 3. Legal Proceedings Incorporated by reference to Note 8 "Litigation" of the Notes to Financial Statements contained in the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders No matters were submitted to a vote of the Unitholders at a meeting or otherwise during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year for which this report has been filed. PART II Item 5. Market for the Partnership's Limited Partnership interests and Security Holder Matters (a) Market Information. There is no established public market in which the Units are currently traded. (b) Holders. The number of Unitholders as of December 31, 1995 was 5,657. (c) Dividends. No distributions were paid to Unitholders during the year ended December 31, 1995. A distribution in the amount of $1,395,000 or $0.20 per Unit was paid to limited partners on February 1, 1996. This distribution represents a one-time distribution of 1995 annual cash flow and surplus Partnership reserves, and does not indicate the reinstatement of regular cash distributions. The General Partner received a cash distribution of $14,091, representing its 1% share of the distribution paid February 1, 1996. No distributions were declared payable to the General Partner for the year ended December 31, 1994. Cumulative distributions paid to Unitholders since the Partnership's inception total $2.24 per Unit. This amount includes $0.57 per Unit paid to class member Unitholders (the "Settlement Class") pursuant to the settlement of class actions brought against Shearson Lehman Hutton Inc., the Partnership and other affiliated defendants (the "Settlement"). Such distributions were drawn from the settlement fund (the "Settlement Fund") established to pay such distributions to the Settlement Class. The Settlement Fund was exhausted with the payment of the fourth quarter 1992 distribution. The ability of the Partnership to make future distributions will be dependent upon the cash flow generated from Hotel operations and the adequacy of cash reserves which, in the future, will be evaluated on an annual basis. There can be no assurance that future cash flow will be sufficient to fund additional distributions. Item 6. Selected Financial Data Incorporated by reference to the section entitled Financial Results Comparison of the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources The Hotel's operations improved during 1995 as a result of strengthening conditions in the Los Angeles Airport hotel market. The Hotel is dependent primarily on business and leisure travel for its revenues. The improved profitability of the Hotel during the year is largely attributable to the 10.8% increase in average room rate, which was achieved as a result of management's efforts to reduce the volume of airline contracts and increase the number of business and group guests at higher rates. At December 31, 1995, Manhattan Beach Hotel Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership") had cash and cash equivalents of $4,414,032, including cash held at the Property for working capital. Cash increased by $1,616,854 from December 31, 1994, due to cash flow generated by operating activities. Such cash balances are expected to be sufficient to meet the anticipated cash requirements for operations of the Partnership. Restricted cash decreased to $187,464 at December 31, 1995, compared to $270,489 at December 31, 1994. The decrease in 1995 is due to expenditures related to the completion of a soft goods renovation of the guest rooms. Pursuant to the management agreement (the "Management Agreement") with Manhattan Beach Management Company, an affiliate of Interstate Hotel Corporation ("Interstate"), contributions to the account for furniture, fixtures and equipment ("FF&E reserve account") will be made over time to protect and maintain the value of the Partnership's Hotel. Accounts receivable increased to $992,941 at December 31, 1995 compared to $906,721 at December 31, 1994. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased to $1,309,672 at December 31, 1995 compared to $1,291,771 at December 31, 1994. The changes in both accounts receivable and accounts payable primarily are due to the timing of payments. Due to affiliates increased to $2,400,138 at December 31, 1995 from $2,121,394 at December 31, 1994, primarily due to the accrual of property management oversight fees for 1995. A distribution in the amount of $1,395,000 or $0.20 per Unit was paid to limited partners on February 1, 1996. This distribution represents a one-time distribution of 1995 annual cash flow and surplus Partnership reserves, and does not indicate the reinstatement of regular cash distributions. The ability of the Partnership to make future distributions will be dependent upon the cash flow generated from Hotel operations and the adequacy of cash reserves which, in the future, will be evaluated on an annual basis. There can be no assurance that future cash flow will be sufficient to fund additional distributions. On February 13, 1996, based upon, among other things, the advice of Partnership counsel, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, the General Partner adopted a resolution that states, among other things, if a Change of Control (as defined below) occurs, the General Partner may distribute the Partnership's cash balances not required for its ordinary course day-to-day operations. "Change of Control" means any purchase or offer to purchase more than 10% of the Units that is not approved in advance by the General Partner. In determining the amount of the distribution, the General Partner may take into account all material factors. In addition, the Partnership will not be obligated to make any distribution to any partner, and no partner will be entitled to receive any distribution, until the General Partner has declared the distribution and established a record date and distribution date for the distribution. The Partnership filed a Form 8-K disclosing this resolution on February 26, 1996. Results of Operations 1995 versus 1994 For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Partnership had net income of $232,226, compared to a net loss of $245,012 for the year ended December 31, 1994. The improvement in 1995 primarily is due to an increase in Hotel Revenues, comprised of rooms, food and beverage, telephone and other departmental income and Partnership interest income which was partially offset by an increase in unallocated Hotel and Partnership operating expenses including depreciation. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Hotel generated departmental income of $7,618,135 compared to $6,985,451 for the year ended December 31, 1994. The 9.1% increase in departmental income in 1995 is due to a increase in total Hotel revenues as a result of higher room rates, higher food and beverage and telephone revenues, which was partially offset by a slight increase in departmental expenses. For the year ended December 31, 1995, unallocated Hotel and Partnership operating expenses, including depreciation, were $7,564,513 compared to $7,287,878 for the corresponding period in 1994. The increase primarily is due to an increase in Hotel general and administrative expenses, which is largely attributable to higher property insurance premiums at the Hotel in 1995 relative to 1994. Also contributing to the increase were higher management fees, Partnership general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization costs. Management fees increased due to higher gross sales on which management receives a base percentage fee and higher incentive management fees associated with Hotel performance. Partnership general and administrative expenses increased due to increased legal expenses regarding the settlement of the lawsuit with Satellite Programming Services. Depreciation increased due to an increase in capitalized personal property. Total other income for the year ended December 31, 1995 increased to $178,604 from $57,415 for the year ended December 31, 1994, primarily due to higher interest income attributable to higher cash balances and higher interest rates earned during the year. The following summarizes the Hotel's performance for the twelve months ended December 31 of the indicated years: 1995 1994 % Change Average Occupancy 82.3% 85.5% (3.7%) Average Room Rate $77.58 $70.02 10.8% Hotel Sales $13,835,896 $13,186,812 4.9% Hotel House Profit $4,013,122 $3,386,612 18.5% Partnership Net Income (Loss) $232,226 ($245,012) * * This percentage change is not relevant since the Partnership recognized net income in 1995 compared to a net loss in 1994. 1994 versus 1993 For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Partnership had a net loss of $245,012, compared to a net loss of $767,542 for the year ended December 31, 1993. The improvement in 1994 primarily was due to an increase in departmental income, comprised of rooms, food and beverage, telephone and other departmental income, which was partially offset by an increase in unallocated hotel operating expenses. For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Hotel generated departmental income of $6,985,451 compared to $6,353,439, for the year ended December 31, 1993. The 9.9% increase in departmental income in 1994 was due to an increase in total Hotel revenues, primarily from room revenues, as well as decreased departmental expenses for food and beverage and other costs. For the year ended December 31, 1994, unallocated Hotel and Partnership operating expenses, including depreciation, were $7,287,878 compared to $7,154,595 for the corresponding period in 1993. The increase primarily was due to an increase in Hotel general and administrative expenses, which is largely attributable to an increase in insurance expense in 1994 relative to 1993 as a result of an adjustment made in 1993 for the self-insured employee health insurance program which was terminated in 1992. Also contributing to the increase were higher costs for utilities and maintenance and increased Hotel operating lease expenses. Total other income for the year ended December 31, 1994 increased to $57,415 from $33,614 at December 31, 1993, primarily due to higher interest income and no interest expense during 1994. The increase in interest income primarily was due to higher cash balances and higher interest rates during the year. The decrease in interest expense was due to the pay-off of a note payable due to the Carlson Group in 1993. The following summarizes the Hotels' performance for the twelve months ended December 31 of the indicated years: 1994 1993 % Change Average Occupancy 85.5% 81.75% 4.7% Average Room Rate $70.02 $70.10 (0.1%) Hotel Sales $13,186,812 $12,996,520 1.5% Hotel House Profit $3,386,612 $2,538,312 33.4% Partnership Net Income (Loss) ($245,012) ($767,542) 68% Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data Incorporated by reference to Schedule III and the Partnership's Annual Report to Unitholders for the year ended December 31, 1995, filed as an exhibit under Item 14. Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure None. PART III Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant The Partnership has no directors or executive officers. The affairs of the Partnership are conducted through the General Partner. The names and ages of, as well as the positions held by, the principal directors and officers of the General Partner are set forth below. All directors of the General Partner will serve until the next meeting of the stockholders of the General Partner. There are no family relationships between any officers or directors. Certain officers of the General Partner are now serving (or in the past have served) as officers or directors of entities which act as general partners of a number of real estate limited partnerships which have sought protection under the provisions of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. The partnerships which have filed bankruptcy petitions own real estate which has been adversely affected by the economic conditions in the markets in which that real estate is located and, consequently, the partnerships sought the protection of the bankruptcy laws to protect the partnerships' assets from loss through foreclosure. The Officers and/or Directors of the General Partner are as follows: Name Office Jeffrey C. Carter President, Director and Chief Financial Officer 	Rocco F. Andriola		Director and Vice President 	Joseph Donaldson		Vice President Jeffrey C. Carter, 50, is a Senior Vice President of Lehman Brothers in the Diversified Asset Group. Mr. Carter joined Lehman Brothers in September 1988. From 1972 to 1988, Mr. Carter held various positions with Helmsley-Spear Hospitality Services, Inc. and Stephen W. Brener Associates, Inc. including Director of Consulting Services at both firms. From 1982 through 1987, Mr. Carter was President of Keystone Hospitality Services, an independent hotel consulting and brokerage company. Mr. Carter received his B.S. degree in Hotel Administration from Cornell University and an M.B.A. degree from Columbia University. Rocco F. Andriola, 37, is a Senior Vice President of Lehman Brothers in its Diversified Asset Group. Since joining Lehman Brothers in 1986, Mr. Andriola has been involved in a wide range of restructuring and asset management activities involving real estate and other direct investment transactions.

Prior to that, Mr. Donaldson was employed with Price Waterhouse and Company. Mr. Donaldson received a B.B.A. in accounting from the University of Georgia and is a Certified Public Accountant. Certain Matters Involving Affiliates of Manhattan Beach Commercial Properties III Inc.: On July 31, 1993, Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc. ("Shearson") sold certain of its domestic retail brokerage and asset management businesses to Smith Barney, Harris Upham & Co. Incorporated ("Smith Barney"). Subsequent to this sale, Shearson changed its name to Lehman Brothers Inc. The transaction did not affect the ownership of the Partnership's General Partner. However, the assets acquired by Smith Barney included the name "Shearson." Consequently, the Shearson Lehman Commercial Properties III, Inc. general partner changed its name to Manhattan Beach Commercial Properties III Inc.; Shearson Lehman Commercial Properties III Depositary, Inc, the Assignor Limited Partner, changed its name to Manhattan Beach Commercial Properties III Depositary, Inc.; and the name of the Partnership was changed to Manhattan Beach Hotel Partners, L.P. to delete any reference to "Shearson." Item 11. Executive Compensation All of the directors and executive officers of the General Partner are employees of Lehman. They do not receive any salaries or other compensation from the Partnership. Item 12.
