Ladies and Gentlemen:

The signatory (the "Signatory") executing the Acknowledgment and Agreement
relating to the captioned offer (the "Acknowledgment and Agreement"), which is
enclosed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer,
hereby and thereby tenders to the Purchaser the units set forth in the box
entitled "Description of Units Tendered" on the Acknowledgment and Agreement,
including all interests in any limited partnership represented by such units
(collectively, the "Units"), at the consideration indicated in the Offer as
supplemented or amended. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in such Acknowledgment and
Agreement.

Subject to and effective upon acceptance for payment of any of the Units
tendered hereby and thereby in accordance with the terms of the Offer, the
Signatory hereby and thereby irrevocably sells, assigns, transfers, conveys and
delivers to, or upon the order of, the Purchaser all right, title and interest
in and to such Units tendered hereby and thereby that are accepted for payment
pursuant to the Offer, including, without limitation, (i) all of the Signatory's
interest in the capital of the Partnership, and the Signatory's interest in all
profits, losses and distributions of any kind to which the Signatory shall at
any time be entitled in respect of the Units, including, without limitation,
distributions in the ordinary course, distributions from sales of assets,
distributions upon liquidation, winding-up, or dissolution, payments in
settlement of existing or future litigation, and all other distributions and
payments from and after the Expiration Date, in respect of the Units tendered by
the Signatory and accepted for payment and thereby purchased by the Purchaser;
(ii) all other payments, if any, due or to become due to the Signatory in
respect of the Units, under or arising out of the agreement and certificate of
limited partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement"), or any
agreement pursuant to which the Units were sold (the "Purchase Agreement"),
whether as contractual obligations, damages, insurance proceeds, condemnation
awards or otherwise; (iii) all of the Signatory's claims, rights, powers,
privileges, authority, options, security interests, liens and remedies, if any,
under or arising out of the Partnership Agreement or Purchase Agreement or the
Signatory's ownership of the Units, including, without limitation, all voting
rights, rights of first offer, first refusal or similar rights, and rights to be
substituted as a limited partner of the Partnership; and (iv) all present and
future claims, if any, of the Signatory against the Partnership, the other
partners of the Partnership, or the general partner and its affiliates, under or
arising out of the Partnership Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, the
Signatory's status as a limited partner, or the terms or conditions of the
Offer, for monies loaned or advanced, for services rendered, for the management
of the Partnership or otherwise.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION IN THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT OR ANY PURCHASE
AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, THE SIGNATORY HEREBY AND THEREBY DIRECTS EACH GENERAL
PARTNER OF THE PARTNERSHIP TO MAKE ALL DISTRIBUTIONS AFTER THE PURCHASER ACCEPTS
THE TENDERED UNITS FOR PAYMENT TO THE PURCHASER OR ITS DESIGNEE. Subject to and
effective upon acceptance for payment of any Unit tendered hereby and thereby,
the Signatory hereby requests that the Purchaser be admitted to the Partnership
as a substitute limited partner under the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
Upon request, the Signatory will execute and deliver additional documents deemed
by the Information Agent or the Purchaser to be necessary or desirable to
complete the assignment, transfer and purchase of Units tendered hereby and
thereby and will hold any distributions received from the Partnership after the
Expiration Date in trust for the benefit of the Purchaser and, if necessary,
will promptly forward to the Purchaser any such distributions immediately upon
receipt. The Purchaser reserves the right to transfer or assign, in whole or in
part, from time to time, to one or more of its affiliates, the right to purchase
Units tendered pursuant to the Offer, but any such transfer or assignment will
not relieve the Purchaser of its obligations under the Offer or prejudice the
rights of tendering unitholders to receive payment for Units validly tendered
and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer.

By executing the enclosed Acknowledgment and Agreement, the Signatory
represents that either (i) the Signatory is not a plan subject to Title I of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), or
Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or
an entity deemed to hold "plan assets" within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section
2510.3-101 of any such plan, or (ii) the tender and acceptance of Units pursuant
to the Offer will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section
406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

The Signatory understands that a tender of Units to the Purchaser will
constitute a binding agreement between the Signatory and the Purchaser upon the
terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer. The Signatory recognizes that
under certain circumstances set forth in the Offer, the Purchaser may not be
required to accept for payment any of the Units tendered hereby. In such event,
the Signatory understands that any Acknowledgment and Agreement for Units not
accepted for payment may be returned to the Signatory or destroyed by the
Purchaser (or its agent). THIS TENDER IS IRREVOCABLE, EXCEPT THAT UNITS TENDERED
PURSUANT TO THE OFFER MAY BE WITHDRAWN AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE.

A-2

THE SIGNATORY HAS BEEN ADVISED THAT THE PURCHASER IS AN AFFILIATE OF THE
GENERAL PARTNER OF THE PARTNERSHIP AND NO SUCH GENERAL PARTNER MAKES ANY
RECOMMENDATION AS TO WHETHER TO TENDER OR REFRAIN FROM TENDERING UNITS IN THE
OFFER. THE SIGNATORY HAS MADE HIS OR HER OWN DECISION TO TENDER UNITS.

The Signatory hereby and thereby represents and warrants for the benefit of
the Partnership and the Purchaser that the Signatory owns all right, title and
interests to the Units tendered hereby and thereby and has full power and
authority and has taken all necessary action to validly tender, sell, assign,
transfer, convey and deliver the Units tendered hereby and thereby and that when
the same are accepted for payment by the Purchaser, the Purchaser will acquire
good, marketable and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens,
restrictions, charges, encumbrances, conditional sales agreements or other
obligations relating to the sale or transfer thereof, and such Units will not be
subject to any adverse claims and that the transfer and assignment contemplated
herein and therein are in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

All authority herein or therein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall
survive the death or incapacity of the Signatory, and any obligations of the
Signatory shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, trustees in
bankruptcy, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the Signatory.

The Signatory represents and warrants that, to the extent a certificate
evidencing the Units tendered hereby and thereby (the "original certificate") is
not delivered by the Signatory together with the Acknowledgment and Agreement,
(i) the Signatory represents and warrants to the Purchaser that the Signatory
has not sold, transferred, conveyed, assigned, pledged, deposited or otherwise
disposed of any portion of the Signatory's right, title and interests to the
Units, (ii) the Signatory has caused a diligent search of its records to be
taken and has been unable to locate the original certificate, (iii) if the
Signatory shall find or recover the original certificate evidencing the Units,
the Signatory will immediately and without consideration surrender it to the
Purchaser; and (iv) the Signatory shall at all times indemnify, defend, and save
harmless the Purchaser and the Partnership, its successors, and its assigns from
and against any and all claims, actions, and suits, whether groundless or
otherwise, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages,
judgments, costs, charges, counsel fees, and other expenses of every nature and
character by reason of honoring or refusing to honor the original certificate
when presented by or on behalf of a holder in due course of a holder appearing
to or believed by the Partnership to be such, or by issuance or delivery of a
replacement certificate, or the making of any payment, delivery, or credit in
respect of the original certificate without surrender thereof, or in respect of
the replacement certificate.

2. SIGNATURE REQUIREMENTS.

INDIVIDUAL AND JOINT OWNERS -- After carefully reading the Letter of
Transmittal and completing the Acknowledgment and Agreement, to tender
Units, unitholders must sign at the "X" in the Signature Box (Box 1) of the
Acknowledgment and Agreement. The signature(s) must correspond exactly with
the names printed (or corrected) on the front of the Acknowledgment and
Agreement. NO SIGNATURE GUARANTEE ON THE ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND AGREEMENT IS
REQUIRED IF THE ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND AGREEMENT IS SIGNED BY THE UNITHOLDER
(OR BENEFICIAL OWNER IN THE CASE OF AN IRA). If any tendered Units are
registered in the names of two or more joint owners, all such owners must
sign the Acknowledgment and Agreement.

IRAS/ELIGIBLE INSTITUTIONS -- For Units held in an IRA account, the
beneficial owner should sign in the Signature Box and no signature
guarantee is required. Similarly, no signature guarantee is required if
Units are tendered for the account of a bank, broker, dealer, credit union,
savings association, or other entity which is a member in good standing of
the Securities Agents Medallion Program or a bank, broker, dealer, credit
union, savings association, or other entity which is an "eligible guarantor
institution" as the term is defined in Rule 17Ad-15 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (each an "Eligible Institution").

TRUSTEES, CORPORATIONS, PARTNERSHIP AND FIDUCIARIES -- Trustees, executors,
administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of a corporation,
authorized partners of a partnership or other persons acting in a fiduciary
or representative capacity must sign at the "X" in the Signature Box and
have their signatures guaranteed by an Eligible Institution by completing
the signature guarantee set forth in Box 3 in the Acknowledgment and
Agreement. If the Acknowledgment and Agreement is signed by trustees,
administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of a corporation,
authorized partners of a partnership or others acting in a fiduciary or
representative capacity, such persons should, in addition to having their
signatures guaranteed, indicate their title in the Signature Box and must
submit proper evidence satisfactory to the Purchaser of their authority to
so act (see Instruction 3 below).

3. DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS. In addition to the information required to
be completed on the Acknowledgment and Agreement, additional documentation
may be required by the Purchaser under certain circumstances including, but
not limited to, those listed below. Questions on documentation should be
directed to the Information Agent at its telephone number set forth herein.

CORPORATION/PARTNERSHIP -- Corporate resolution(s) or other
evidence of authority to act.

names and powers of trustee(s) and any
amendments to such sections or
appointment of successor trustee(s).

4. TAX CERTIFICATIONS. The unitholder(s) tendering Units to the Purchaser
pursuant to the Offer must furnish the Purchaser with the unitholder(s)'
taxpayer identification number ("TIN") and certify as true, under penalties of
perjury, the representations in Box 6 and Box 7 of the Acknowledgment and
Agreement. By signing the Signature Box, the unitholder(s) certifies that the
TIN as printed (or corrected) on Acknowledgment and Agreement in the box
entitled "Description of Units Tendered" and the representations made in Box 6
and Box 7 of the Acknowledgment and Agreement are correct. See attached
Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute
Form W-9 for guidance in determining the proper TIN to give the Purchaser.

U.S. PERSONS. A unitholder that is a U.S. citizen or a resident alien
individual, a domestic corporation, a domestic partnership, a domestic trust or
a domestic estate (collectively, "U.S. Persons"), as those terms are defined in
the Code, should follow the instructions below with respect to certifying Box 6
and Box 7 of the Acknowledgment and Agreement.

BOX 6 - SUBSTITUTE FORM W-9.

Part (i), Taxpayer Identification Number -- Tendering unitholders must certify
to the Purchaser that the TIN as printed (or corrected) on the Acknowledgment
and Agreement in the box entitled "Description of Units Tendered" is correct. If
a correct TIN is not provided, penalties may be imposed by the Internal Revenue
Service (the "IRS"), in addition to the unitholder being subject to backup
withholding.

Part (ii), Backup Withholding -- In order to avoid 31% Federal income tax backup
withholding, the tendering unitholder must certify, under penalty of perjury,
that such unitholder is not subject to backup withholding. Certain unitholders
(including, among others, all corporations and certain exempt non-profit
organizations) are not subject to backup withholding. Backup withholding is not
an additional tax. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund
may be obtained from the IRS. When determining the TIN to be furnished, please
refer to the following as a guide:

Individual accounts - should reflect owner's TIN.

Joint accounts - should reflect the TIN of the owner whose name appears
first.

Trust accounts - should reflect the TIN assigned to the trust.

IRA custodial accounts - should reflect the TIN of the custodian (not
necessary to provide).

Custodial accounts for the benefit of minors - should reflect the TIN of
the minor.

Corporations, partnership or other business entities - should reflect the
TIN assigned to that entity.

By signing the Signature Box, the unitholder(s) certifies that the TIN as
printed (or corrected) on the front of the Acknowledgment and Agreement is
correct.

BOX 7 - FIRPTA AFFIDAVIT -- Section 1445 of the Code requires that each
unitholder transferring interests in a partnership with real estate assets
meeting certain criteria certify under penalty of perjury the representations
made in Box 7, or be subject to withholding of tax equal to 10% of the
consideration for interests purchased. Tax withheld under Section 1445 of the
Code is not an additional tax. If withholding results in an overpayment of tax,
a refund may be claimed from the IRS.

FOREIGN PERSONS -- In order for a tendering unitholder who is a Foreign Person
(i.e., not a U.S. Person, as defined above) to qualify as exempt from 31% backup
withholding, such foreign unitholder must submit a statement, signed under
penalties of perjury, attesting to that individual's exempt status. Forms for
such statements can be obtained from the Information Agent.

A-5

5. VALIDITY OF ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND AGREEMENT. All questions as to the validity,
form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of an
Acknowledgment and Agreement and other required documents will be determined by
the Purchaser and such determination will be final and binding. The Purchaser's
interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer (including these
Instructions for the Acknowledgment and Agreement) will be final and binding.
The Purchaser will have the right to waive any irregularities or conditions as
to the manner of tendering. Any irregularities in connection with tenders,
unless waived, must be cured within such time as the Purchaser shall determine.
The Acknowledgment and Agreement will not be valid until any irregularities have
been cured or waived. Neither the Purchaser nor the Information Agent are under
any duty to give notification of defects in an Acknowledgment and Agreement and
will incur no liability for failure to give such notification.

6. ASSIGNEE STATUS. Assignees must provide documentation to the Information
Agent which demonstrates, to the satisfaction of the Purchaser, such person's
status as an assignee.

7. TRANSFER TAXES. The amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on the
registered holder or such person) payable on account of the transfer to such
person will be deducted from the consideration unless satisfactory evidence of
the payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is submitted.

8. SPECIAL PAYMENT AND DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS. If consideration is to be issued
in the name of a person other than the person signing the Signature Box of the
Acknowledgment and Agreement or if consideration is to be sent to someone other
than such signer or to an address other than that set forth on the
Acknowledgment and Agreement in the box entitled "Description of Units
Tendered," the appropriate boxes on the Acknowledgment and Agreement must be
completed.
