EXHIBIT 1
Offer to Purchase For Cash
AIMCO
AIMCO Properties, L.P.
is offering to purchase any and all limited partnership units in
CONSOLIDATED CAPITAL GROWTH FUND
FOR $237 PER UNIT IN CASH
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, we will accept
any and all units validly tendered in response to our offer. If units are
validly tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration date and the
purchase of all such units would result in there being less than 320 limited
partners, we will purchase only 99% of the total number of units so tendered by
each limited partner.
You will not pay any partnership transfer fees if you tender your units pursuant
to this offer. You will pay any other fees and costs, including any transfer
taxes.
Our offer price will be reduced for any distributions subsequently made by your
partnership prior to the expiration of our offer.
Our offer and your withdrawal rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on September 27, 2001, unless we extend the deadline.
SEE "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 3 OF THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE FOR A
DESCRIPTION OF RISK FACTORS THAT YOU SHOULD CONSIDER IN CONNECTION WITH OUR
OFFER, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
o We determined the offer price of $237 per unit without any arms-length
negotiations. Accordingly, our offer price may not reflect the fair
market value of your units.
o Your general partner and the residential property manager are
subsidiaries of ours, and the general partner therefore has substantial
conflicts of interest with respect to our offer.
o We are making this offer with a view to making a profit and, therefore,
there is a conflict between our desire to purchase your units at a low
price and your desire to sell your units at a high price.
o Continuation of your partnership will result in our affiliates
continuing to receive management fees from your partnership. Such fees
would not be payable if your partnership were liquidated.
(Continued on next page)
----------
If you decide to accept our offer, you should complete and sign the
enclosed acknowledgment and agreement as instructed in the letter of transmittal
attached as Annex II. The signed acknowledgment and agreement and any other
documents required by the letter of transmittal must be mailed or delivered to
River Oaks Partnership Services, Inc., which is acting as Information Agent in

(Continued from prior page)
o It is possible that we may conduct a future offer at a higher price.
o For any units that we acquire from you, you will not receive any future
distributions from operating cash flow of your partnership or upon a
sale or refinancing of property owned by your partnership.
o We and our affiliates own a majority of the outstanding units of your
partnership. As a result, we and our affiliates control the voting
decisions with respect to your partnership, including but not limited
to the removal of the general partner, most amendments to the
partnership agreement and the sale of all or substantially all of your
partnership's assets.

SUMMARY TERM SHEET
This summary term sheet highlights the most material information
regarding our offer, but it does not describe all of the details thereof. We
urge you to read this entire offer to purchase, which contains the full details
of our offer. We have also included in the summary term sheet references to the
sections of this offer to purchase where a more complete discussion may be
found.
o THE OFFER. Subject to the terms hereof, we are offering to acquire any
and all of the limited partnership units of CONSOLIDATED CAPITAL GROWTH
FUND, your partnership, for $237 per unit in cash. See "The
Offer--Section 1. Terms of the Offer; Expiration Date; Proration" and
"The Offer--Section 9. Background and Reasons for the
Offer--Determination of Offer Price."
o FACTORS IN DETERMINING THE OFFER PRICE. In determining the offer price
per unit we principally considered:
o Our belief that the per unit liquidation value of your
partnership is equal to our offer price per unit.
o There is no trading market for the units. See "The
Offer--Section 9. Background and Reasons for the
Offer--Comparison of Consideration to Alternative
Consideration."
o PRORATIONS. If the purchase of all validly tendered units would result
in there being less than 320 holders of units, we will purchase only
99% of the total number of units so tendered by each holder. See "The
Offer--Section 1. Terms of the Offer; Expiration Date; Proration."
o EXPIRATION DATE. Our offer expires on September 27, 2001, unless
extended, and you can tender your units until our offer expires. See
"The Offer--Section 1. Terms of the Offer; Expiration Date; Proration."
o RIGHT TO EXTEND THE EXPIRATION DATE. We can extend the offer in our
sole discretion, and we will either issue a press release or send you a
notice of any such extension. See "The Offer--Section 5. Extension of
Tender Period; Termination; Amendment; No Subsequent Offering Period."
o HOW TO TENDER. To tender your units, complete the accompanying
acknowledgment and agreement and send it, along with any other
documents required by the letter of transmittal attached as Annex II,
to the Information Agent, River Oaks Partnership, Inc., at one of the
addresses set forth on the back of this offer to purchase. See "The
Offer--Section 3. Procedures for Tendering."
o WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS. You can withdraw your units at any time prior to the
expiration of the offer, including any extensions. In addition, you can
withdraw your units at any time on or after October 26, 2001 if we have
not already accepted units for purchase and payment. See "The
Offer--Section 4. Withdrawal Rights."
o HOW TO WITHDRAW. To withdraw your units, you need to send a notice of
withdrawal to the Information Agent, identifying yourself and the units
to be withdrawn. See "The Offer--Section 4. Withdrawal Rights."
o TAX CONSEQUENCES. Your sale of units in this offer will be a taxable
transaction for federal income tax purposes. The consequences to each
limited partner may vary and you should consult your tax advisor on the
precise tax consequences to you. See "The Offer--Section 6. Certain
Federal Income Tax Matters."
o AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS. We currently have the necessary cash and a line
of credit to consummate the offers. See "The Offer--Section 15. Source
of Funds."
-1-
5
o CONDITIONS TO THE OFFER. There are a number of conditions to our offer,
including our having adequate cash and borrowings under a line of
credit, the absence of competing tender offers, the absence of certain
changes in your partnership, and the absence of certain changes in the
financial markets. See "The Offer--Section 17. Conditions to the
Offer."
o REMAINING AS A LIMITED PARTNER. If you do not tender your units, you
will continue to remain a limited partner in your partnership. We have
no plans to alter the operations, business or financial position of
your partnership or to take your partnership private. See "The
Offer--Section 7. Effects of the Offer."
o WHO WE ARE. We are AIMCO Properties, L.P., the main operating
partnership of Apartment Investment and Management Company, a New York
Stock Exchange listed company. See "The Offer--Section 8. Information
Concerning Us and Certain of Our Affiliates."
o CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. Our subsidiary receives fees for managing your
partnership's residential property and the general partner of your
partnership (which is also our subsidiary) is entitled to receive
reimbursement of certain expenses involving your partnership and its
property. As a result, a conflict of interest exists between continuing
the partnership and receiving these fees, and the liquidation of the
partnership and the termination of these fees. See "The Offer--Section
11. Conflicts of Interests" and "The Offer--Section 13. Certain
Information Concerning Your Partnership."
o NO GENERAL PARTNER RECOMMENDATION. The general partner of your
partnership makes no recommendation as to whether you should tender or
refrain from tendering your units, and believes each limited partner
should make his or her own decision whether or not to tender. See "The
Offer--Section 10. Position of the General Partner of Your Partnership
with Respect to the Offer."
o NO SUBSEQUENT OFFERING PERIOD. We do not intend to have a subsequent
offering period after the expiration date of the initial offering
period (including any extensions). See "The Offer--Section 5. Extension
of Tender Offer Period; Termination; Amendment; No Subsequent Offering
Period."
o ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. For more assistance in tendering your units,
please contact our Information Agent at one of the addresses or the
telephone number set forth on the back cover page of this offer to
purchase.

RISK FACTORS
Before deciding whether or not to tender any of your units, you should
consider carefully the following risks and disadvantages of the offer:
WE HAVE NOT OBTAINED A THIRD PARTY VALUATION OR APPRAISAL AND ESTABLISHED THE
TERMS OF OUR OFFER WITHOUT ARMS-LENGTH NEGOTIATION.
We did not base our valuation of the property owned by your partnership
on any third-party appraisal or valuation. We established the terms of our offer
without any arms-length negotiation. The terms of the offer could differ if they
were subject to independent third party negotiations. It is uncertain whether
our offer price reflects the value that would be realized upon a sale of your
units to a third party.
OUR OFFER PRICE MAY NOT REPRESENT FAIR MARKET VALUE.
There is no established or regular trading market for your units, nor
is there another reliable standard for determining the fair market value of the
units. Our offer price does not necessarily reflect the price that you would
receive in an open market for your units. Such prices could be higher than our
offer price.
OUR OFFER PRICE DOES NOT REFLECT FUTURE PROSPECTS.
Our offer price is based on your partnership's property income. It does
not ascribe any value to potential future improvements in the operating
performance of your partnership's residential property.
OUR OFFER PRICE MAY NOT REPRESENT YOUR PARTNERSHIP'S LIQUIDATION VALUE.
The actual proceeds obtained from liquidation are highly uncertain and
could be more than our estimate. Accordingly, our offer price could be less than
the net proceeds that you would realize upon an actual liquidation of your
partnership.
HOLDING YOUR UNITS MAY RESULT IN GREATER FUTURE VALUE.
Although a liquidation of your partnership is not currently
contemplated in the near future, you might receive more value if you retain your
units until your partnership is liquidated.
THE GENERAL PARTNER FACES CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER.
The general partner of your partnership is our subsidiary, and
therefore has substantial conflicts of interest with respect to our offer. We
are making this offer with a view to making a profit. There is a conflict
between our desire to purchase your units at a low price and your desire to sell
your units at a high price. We determined our offer price without negotiation
with any other party, including any general or limited partner.
THE GENERAL PARTNER IS NOT MAKING A RECOMMENDATION REGARDING THIS OFFER.
The general partner of your partnership makes no recommendation as to
whether or not you should tender or refrain from tendering your units. Although
the general partner believes the offer is fair, you must make your own decision
whether or not to participate in the offer based upon a number of factors,
including several factors that may be personal to you, such as your financial
position, your need or desire for liquidity, your preferences regarding the
timing of when you might wish to sell your units, other financial opportunities
available to you, and your tax position and the tax consequences to you of
selling your units.
THE GENERAL PARTNER FACES CONFLICTS OF INTEREST RELATING TO MANAGEMENT FEES.
Because we or our subsidiaries receive fees for managing your
partnership and its residential property, a conflict of interest exists between
continuing the partnership and receiving such fees, and the liquidation of the
partnership and the termination of such fees. Also, a decision of the limited
partners of your partnership to remove,
-3-
7
for any reason, the general partner of your partnership or the residential
property manager of the property owned by your partnership would result in a
decrease or elimination of the substantial fees to which they are entitled for
services provided to your partnership.
WE MAY MAKE A FUTURE OFFER AT A HIGHER PRICE.
It is possible that we may conduct a future offer at a higher price.
Such a decision will depend on, among other things, the performance of the
partnership, prevailing economic conditions, and our interest in acquiring
additional units.
YOU WILL RECOGNIZE TAXABLE GAIN ON A SALE OF YOUR UNITS.
Your sale of units for cash will be a taxable sale, with the result
that you will recognize taxable gain or loss measured by the difference between
the amount realized on the sale and your adjusted tax basis in the units of
limited partnership interest of your partnership you transfer to us. The "amount
realized" with respect to a unit of limited partnership interest you transfer to
us will be equal to the sum of the amount of cash received by you for the unit
sold pursuant to the offer plus the amount of partnership liabilities allocable
to the unit. The particular tax consequences for you of our offer will depend
upon a number of factors related to your tax situation, including your tax basis
in the units you transfer to us, whether you dispose of all of your units, and
whether you have available suspended passive losses, credits or other tax items
to offset any gain recognized as a result of your sale of your units. Therefore,
depending on your basis in the units and your tax position, your taxable gain
and any tax liability resulting from a sale of units to us pursuant to the offer
could exceed our offer price. Because the income tax consequences of tendering
units will not be the same for everyone, you should consult your own tax advisor
to determine the tax consequences of the offer to you.
IF YOU TENDER YOUR UNITS IN THIS OFFER, YOU WILL NO LONGER BE ENTITLED TO
DISTRIBUTIONS FROM YOUR PARTNERSHIP.
If you tender your units in response to our offer, you will transfer to
us all right, title and interest in and to all of the units we accept, and the
right to receive all distributions in respect of such units on and after the
date on which we accept such units for purchase. Accordingly, for any units that
we acquire from you, you will not receive any future distributions from
operating cash flow of your partnership or upon a sale or refinancing of the
property owned by your partnership.
WE CONTROL YOUR PARTNERSHIP.
Decisions with respect to the day-to-day management of your partnership
are the responsibility of the general partner. Because the general partner of
your partnership is our subsidiary, we control the management of your
partnership. Under your partnership's agreement of limited partnership, limited
partners holding a majority of the outstanding units must approve certain
extraordinary transactions, including the removal of the general partner, most
amendments to the partnership agreement and the sale of all or substantially all
of your partnership's assets. We and our affiliates own 31,212.75, or 63.45%, of
the outstanding units of your partnership. Because we and our affiliates own a
majority of the outstanding units, we have the ability to control any vote of
the limited partners.
YOU COULD RECOGNIZE GAIN IN THE EVENT OF A FUTURE REDUCTION IN YOUR
PARTNERSHIP'S LIABILITIES.
Generally, a decrease in your share of partnership liabilities is
treated, for federal income tax purposes, as a deemed cash distribution.
Although the general partner of your partnership does not have any current plan
or intention to reduce the liabilities of your partnership, it is possible that
future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause the
general partner to reduce the liabilities of your partnership. If you retain all
or a portion of your units and the liabilities of your partnership were to be
reduced, you would be treated as receiving a hypothetical distribution of cash
resulting from a decrease in your share of the liabilities of the partnership.
Any such hypothetical distribution of cash would be treated as a nontaxable
return of capital to the extent of your adjusted tax basis in your units and
thereafter as gain. Gain recognized by you on the disposition of retained units
with a holding period of 12 months or less may be classified as short-term
capital gain and subject to taxation at ordinary income tax rates.
-4-
8
YOUR PARTNERSHIP'S STATUS COULD TERMINATE FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES.
If there is a sale or exchange of 50% or more of the total interest in
capital and profits of your partnership within any 12-month period, including
sales or exchanges resulting from our offer, your partnership will terminate for
federal income tax purposes. Any such termination may, among other things,
subject the assets of your partnership to longer depreciable lives than those
currently applicable to the assets of your partnership. This would generally
decrease the annual average depreciation deductions allocable to you if you do
not tender all of your interests in your partnership, thereby increasing the
taxable income allocable to your interests in your partnership each year, but
would have no effect on the total depreciation deductions available over the
useful lives of the assets of your partnership. Any such termination may also
change (and possibly shorten) your holding period with respect to interests in
your partnership that you choose to retain.
YOU COULD BE PRECLUDED FROM TRANSFERRING YOUR UNITS FOR A 12-MONTH PERIOD.
Under United States federal tax laws, your partnership will terminate
for tax purposes if there is a sale or exchange of 50% or more of the total
interest in capital and profits of your partnership within any 12-month period.
If we acquire a significant percentage of the interest in your partnership, you
may not be able to transfer your units for a 12-month period following our
offer.
WE COULD DELAY ACCEPTANCE OF, AND PAYMENT FOR, YOUR UNITS.
We reserve the right to extend the period of time during which our
offer is open and thereby delay acceptance for payment of any tendered units.
The offer may be extended indefinitely, and no payment will be made in respect
of tendered units until the expiration of the offer and acceptance of units for
payment.
YOUR PARTNERSHIP HAS A BALLOON PAYMENT DUE ON ITS MORTGAGE DEBT IN DECEMBER
2005.
Your partnership has approximately $24,690,000 of balloon payments due
on its mortgage debt in December 2005. Your partnership will have to refinance
such debt, sell assets or otherwise obtain additional funds prior to the balloon
payment dates, or it will be in default and could lose the properties to
foreclosure.
THE OFFER
1. TERMS OF THE OFFER; EXPIRATION DATE; PRORATION
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer, we will
accept (and thereby purchase) any and all units that are validly tendered on or
prior to the expiration date and not withdrawn in accordance with the procedures
set forth in "The Offer--Section 4. Withdrawal Rights." For purposes of the
offer, the term "expiration date" shall mean 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
September 27, 2001, unless we in our sole discretion shall have extended the
period of time for which the offer is open, in which event the term "expiration
date" shall mean the latest time and date on which the offer, as extended by us,
shall expire. See "The Offer--Section 5. Extension of Tender Period;
Termination; Amendment; No Subsequent Offering Period," for a description of our
right to extend the period of time during which the offer is open and to amend
or terminate the offer.
The purchase price per unit will automatically be reduced by the
aggregate amount of distributions per unit, if any, made by your partnership to
you on or after the commencement of our offer and prior to the date on which we
acquire your units pursuant to our offer.
If, prior to the expiration date, we increase the consideration offered
pursuant to the offer, the increased consideration will be paid for all units
accepted for payment pursuant to the offer, whether or not the units were
tendered prior to the increase in consideration.
If units are validly tendered prior to the expiration date and not
properly withdrawn prior to the expiration date in accordance with the
procedures set forth in "The Offer--Section 4. Withdrawal Rights" and the
purchase of all such units would result in (i)a "Rule 13e-3 transaction" within
the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"); or (ii)
there being less than 320 limited partners, we will purchase only 99% of the
total
-5-
9
number of units so tendered by each limited partner (subject to any necessary
adjustment for fractional units). If we are going to purchase only 99% of the
units validly tendered, we will notify you of such fact. In such case, you would
continue to be a limited partner and receive a K-1 for tax reporting purposes.
See "The Offer--Section 7. Effects of the Offer--Effect on Trading Market;
Registration Under 12(g) of the Exchange Act."
The offer is conditioned on satisfaction of certain conditions. THE
OFFER IS NOT CONDITIONED UPON ANY MINIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS BEING TENDERED. See
"The Offer--Section 17. Conditions to the Offer," which sets forth in full the
conditions of the offer. We reserve the right (but in no event shall we be
obligated), in our reasonable discretion, to waive any or all of those
conditions. If, on or prior to the expiration date, any or all of the conditions
have not been satisfied or waived, we reserve the right to (i) decline to
purchase any of the units tendered, terminate the offer and return all tendered
units to tendering limited partners, (ii) waive all the unsatisfied conditions
and purchase, subject to the terms of the offer, any and all units validly
tendered, (iii) extend the offer and, subject to your withdrawal rights, retain
the units that have been tendered during the period or periods for which the
offer is extended, or (iv) amend the offer. The transfer of units will be
effective July 1, 2001.
This offer is being mailed on or about August 29, 2001 to the persons
shown by your partnership's records to have been limited partners or, in the
case of units owned of record by Individual Retirement Accounts and qualified
plans, beneficial owners of units, on August 29, 2001.
2. ACCEPTANCE FOR PAYMENT AND PAYMENT FOR UNITS.
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer, we will
purchase, by accepting for payment, and will pay for, any and all units validly
tendered as promptly as practicable following the expiration date. A tendering
beneficial owner of units whose units are owned of record by an Individual
Retirement Account or other qualified plan will not receive direct payment of
the offer price; rather, payment will be made to the custodian of such account
or plan. In all cases, payment for units purchased pursuant to the offer will be
made only after timely receipt by the Information Agent of a properly completed
and duly executed acknowledgment and agreement and other documents required by
the letter of transmittal attached as Annex II. See "The Offer--Section 3.
Procedure for Tendering Units." UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL INTEREST BE PAID ON
THE OFFER PRICE BY REASON OF ANY DELAY IN MAKING SUCH PAYMENT.
We will, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer,
accept for payment and pay for any and all units validly tendered, with
appropriate adjustments to avoid purchases that would violate the agreement of
limited partnership of your partnership and any relevant procedures or
regulations promulgated by the general partner. In some circumstances, we may
pay you the full offer price and accept an assignment of your right to receive
distributions and other payments and an irrevocable proxy in respect of the
units and defer, perhaps indefinitely, the transfer of ownership of the units on
the partnership books. In other circumstances we may only be able to purchase
units which, together with units previously transferred within the preceding
twelve months, do not exceed 50% of the outstanding units.
If more units than can be purchased under the partnership agreement are
validly tendered prior to the expiration date and not properly withdrawn prior
to the expiration date in accordance with the procedures specified herein, we
will, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer, accept for
payment and pay for those units so tendered which do not violate the terms of
the partnership agreement, pro rata according to the number of units validly
tendered by each limited partner and not properly withdrawn on or prior to the
expiration date, with appropriate adjustments to avoid purchases of fractional
units. If the number of units validly tendered and not properly withdrawn on or
prior to the expiration date is less than or equal to the maximum number we can
purchase under the partnership agreement, we will purchase all units so tendered
and not withdrawn, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer.
If proration of tendered units is required, then, subject to our
obligation under Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act to pay limited partners
the purchase price in respect of units tendered or return those units promptly
after termination or withdrawal of the offer, we do not intend to pay for any
units accepted for payment pursuant to the offer until the final proration
results are known. Notwithstanding any such delay in payment, no interest will
be paid on the offer price.
-6-
10
For purposes of the offer, we will be deemed to have accepted for
payment pursuant to the offer, and thereby purchased, validly tendered units,
if, as and when we give verbal or written notice to the Information Agent of our
acceptance of those units for payment pursuant to the offer. Payment for units
accepted for payment pursuant to the offer will be made through the Information
Agent, which will act as agent for tendering limited partners for the purpose of
receiving cash payments from us and transmitting cash payments to tendering
limited partners.
If any tendered units are not accepted for payment by us for any
reason, the acknowledgment and agreement with respect to such units not
purchased may be destroyed by the Information Agent or us or returned to you.
You may withdraw tendered units until the expiration date (including any
extensions). In addition, if we have not accepted units for payment by October
26, 2001, you may then withdraw any tendered units. After the expiration date,
the Information Agent may, on our behalf, retain tendered units, and those units
may not be otherwise withdrawn, if, for any reason, acceptance for payment of,
or payment for, any units tendered pursuant to the offer is delayed or we are
unable to accept for payment, purchase or pay for units tendered pursuant to the
offer. Any such action is subject, however, to our obligation under Rule
14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, to pay you the offer price in respect of units
tendered or return those units promptly after termination or withdrawal of the
offer.
We reserve the right to transfer or assign, in whole or in part, to one
or more of our affiliates, the right to purchase units tendered pursuant to the
offer, but no such transfer or assignment will relieve us of our obligations
under the offer or prejudice your rights to receive payment for units validly
tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to the offer.
3. PROCEDURE FOR TENDERING UNITS.
VALID TENDER. To validly tender units pursuant to the offer, a properly
completed and duly executed acknowledgment and agreement and any other documents
required by the letter of transmittal attached as Annex II must be received by
the Information Agent, at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of
this offer to purchase, on or prior to the expiration date. You may tender all
or any portion of your units. No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders
will be accepted.
SIGNATURE REQUIREMENTS. If the acknowledgment and agreement is signed
by the registered holder of a unit and payment is to be made directly to that
holder, then no signature guarantee is required on the acknowledgment and
agreement. Similarly, if a unit is tendered for the account of a member firm of
a registered national securities exchange, a member of the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank, savings bank, credit union,
savings and loan association or trust company having an office, branch or agency
in the United States (each an "Eligible Institution"), no signature guarantee is
required on the acknowledgment and agreement. However, in all other cases, all
signatures on the acknowledgment and agreement must be guaranteed by an Eligible
Institution.
In order for you to tender in the offer, your units must be validly
tendered and not withdrawn on or prior to the expiration date.
THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND AGREEMENT AND ALL
OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS IS AT YOUR OPTION AND RISK AND DELIVERY WILL BE DEEMED
MADE ONLY WHEN ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE INFORMATION AGENT. IF DELIVERY IS BY
MAIL, REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED IS RECOMMENDED. IN ALL
CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ASSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.
APPOINTMENT AS PROXY; POWER OF ATTORNEY. By executing the
acknowledgment and agreement, you are irrevocably appointing us and our
designees as your proxy, in the manner set forth in the acknowledgment and
agreement and each with full power of substitution, to the fullest extent of
your rights with respect to the units tendered by you and accepted for payment
by us. Each such proxy shall be considered coupled with an interest in the
tendered units. Such appointment will be effective when, and only to the extent
that, we accept the tendered units for payment. Upon such acceptance for
payment, all prior proxies given by you with respect to the units will, without
further action, be revoked, and no subsequent proxies may be given (and if given
will not be effective). We and our designees will, as to those units, be
empowered to exercise all voting and other rights as a limited partner as we, in
our sole discretion, may deem proper at any meeting of limited partners, by
written consent or otherwise. We reserve the right to require that, in order for
units to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon our acceptance
-7-
11
for payment of the units, we must be able to exercise full voting rights with
respect to the units, including voting at any meeting of limited partners and/or
limited partners then scheduled or acting by written consent without a meeting.
By executing the acknowledgment and agreement, you agree to execute all such
documents and take such other actions as shall be reasonably required to enable
the units tendered to be voted in accordance with our directions. The proxy
granted by you to us will remain effective and be irrevocable for a period of
ten years following the termination of our offer.
By executing the acknowledgment and agreement, you also irrevocably
constitute and appoint us and our designees as your attorneys-in-fact, each with
full power of substitution, to the full extent of your rights with respect to
the units tendered by you and accepted for payment by us. Such appointment will
be effective when, and only to the extent that, we pay for your units and will
remain effective and be irrevocable for a period of ten years following the
termination of our offer. You will agree not to exercise any rights pertaining
to the tendered units without our prior consent. Upon such payment, all prior
powers of attorney granted by you with respect to such units will, without
further action, be revoked, and no subsequent powers of attorney may be granted
(and if granted will not be effective). Pursuant to such appointment as
attorneys-in-fact, we and our designees each will have the power, among other
things, (i) to transfer ownership of such units on the partnership books
maintained by your general partner (and execute and deliver any accompanying
evidences of transfer and authenticity it may deem necessary or appropriate in
connection therewith), (ii) upon receipt by the Information Agent of the offer
consideration, to become a substituted limited partner, to receive any and all
distributions made by your partnership on or after the date on which we acquire
such units, and to receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of
beneficial ownership of such units in accordance with the terms of our offer,
(iii) to execute and deliver to the general partner of your partnership a change
of address form instructing the general partner to send any and all future
distributions to which we are entitled pursuant to the terms of the offer in
respect of tendered units to the address specified in such form, and (iv) to
endorse any check payable to you or upon your order representing a distribution
to which we are entitled pursuant to the terms of our offer, in each case, in
your name and on your behalf.
By executing the acknowledgment and agreement, you will irrevocably
constitute and appoint us and any of our designees as your true and lawful agent
and attorney-in-fact with respect to such units, with full power of substitution
(such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an
interest), to withdraw any or all of such units that have been previously
tendered in response to any other tender or exchange offer, provided that the
price per unit we are offering is equal to or higher than the price per unit
being offered in the other tender or exchange offer. Such appointment is
effective upon the execution and receipt of the acknowledgment and agreement and
shall continue to be effective unless and until you validly withdraw such units
from this offer prior to the expiration date.
ASSIGNMENT OF INTEREST IN FUTURE DISTRIBUTIONS. By executing the
acknowledgment and agreement, you will irrevocably assign to us and our assigns
all of your right, title and interest in and to any and all distributions made
by your partnership from any source and of any nature, 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 of our offer, in respect of the
units tendered by you and accepted for payment and thereby purchased by us. If,
after the unit is accepted for payment and purchased by us, you receive any
distribution from any source and of any nature, 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 your partnership in respect of such unit, you will agree to
forward promptly such distribution to us.
DETERMINATION OF VALIDITY; REJECTION OF UNITS; WAIVER OF DEFECTS; NO
OBLIGATION TO GIVE NOTICE OF DEFECTS. All questions as to the validity, form,
eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for payment of any tender
of units pursuant to our offer will be determined by us, in our reasonable
discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. We
reserve the absolute right to reject any or all tenders of any particular unit
determined by us not to be in proper form or if the acceptance of or payment for
that unit may, in the opinion of our counsel, be unlawful. We also reserve the
absolute right to waive or amend any of the conditions of the offer that we are
legally permitted to waive as to the tender of any particular unit and to waive
any defect or irregularity in any tender with respect to any particular unit of
any particular limited partner. Our interpretation of the terms and conditions
of the offer (including the acknowledgment and agreement and the letter of
transmittal) will be final and
-8-
12
binding on all parties. No tender of units will be deemed to have been validly
made unless and until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived.
Neither we, the Information Agent, nor any other person will be under any duty
to give notification of any defects or irregularities in the tender of any unit
or will incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.
BACKUP FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING. To prevent the possible
application of back-up federal income tax withholding of 31% with respect to
payment of the offer price, you may have to provide us with your correct
taxpayer identification number. See the instructions to the acknowledgment and
agreement set forth in the letter of transmittal attached as Annex II and "The
Offer--Section 6. Certain Federal Income Tax Matters."
FIRPTA WITHHOLDING. To prevent the withholding of federal income tax in
an amount equal to 10% of the amount realized on the disposition (the amount
realized is generally the offer price plus the partnership liabilities allocable
to each unit purchased), you must certify that you are not a foreign person if
you tender units. See the instructions to the acknowledgment and agreement set
forth in the letter of transmittal attached as Annex II and "The Offer--Section
6. Certain Federal Income Tax Matters."
TRANSFER TAXES. The amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on
the registered holder of units or any person) payable on account of the transfer
of units will be deducted from the purchase price unless satisfactory evidence
of the payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is submitted.
BINDING AGREEMENT. A tender of a unit pursuant to any of the procedures
described above and the acceptance for payment of such unit will constitute a
binding agreement between the tendering limited partner and us on the terms set
forth in this offer to purchase and the related acknowledgment and agreement and
letter of transmittal.
4. WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS.
You may withdraw your tendered units at any time prior to the
expiration date, including any extensions thereof, or on or after October 26,
2001 if the units have not been previously accepted for payment.
For a withdrawal to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal must
be timely received by the Information Agent at one of its addresses set forth on
the back cover of the offer to purchase. Any such notice of withdrawal must
specify the name of the person who tendered, the number of units to be withdrawn
and the name of the registered holder of such units, if different from the
person who tendered. In addition, the notice of withdrawal must be signed by the
person who signed the acknowledgment and agreement in the same manner as the
acknowledgment and agreement was signed.
If purchase of, or payment for, a unit is delayed for any reason, or if
we are unable to purchase or pay for a unit for any reason, then, without
prejudice to our rights under the offer, tendered units may be retained by the
Information Agent; subject, however, to our obligation, pursuant to Rule
14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, to pay the offer price in respect of units
tendered or return those units promptly after termination or withdrawal of our
offer.
Any units properly withdrawn will thereafter be deemed not to have been
validly tendered for purposes of our offer. However, withdrawn units may be
re-tendered at any time prior to the expiration date by following the procedures
described in "The Offer--Section 3. Procedures for Tendering Units."
All questions as to the validity and form (including time of receipt)
of notices of withdrawal will be determined by us in our reasonable discretion,
which determination will be final and binding on all parties. Neither the
Information Agent, any other person, nor we will be under any duty to give
notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or
incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.
5. EXTENSION OF TENDER PERIOD; TERMINATION; AMENDMENT; NO SUBSEQUENT OFFERING
PERIOD.
We expressly reserve the right, in our reasonable discretion, at any
time and from time to time, (i) to extend the period of time during which our
offer is open and thereby delay acceptance for payment of, and the payment for,
-9-
13
any unit, (ii) to terminate the offer and not accept any units not theretofore
accepted for payment or paid for if any of the conditions to the offer are not
satisfied or if any event occurs that might reasonably be expected to result in
a failure to satisfy such conditions, (iii) upon the occurrence of any of the
conditions specified in "The Offer--Section 17. Conditions to the Offer," or any
event that might reasonably be expected to result in such occurrence, to delay
the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, any units not already accepted
for payment or paid for, and (iv) to amend our offer in any respect (including,
without limitation, by increasing or decreasing the consideration offered,
increasing or decreasing the units being sought, or both). Notice of any such
extension, termination or amendment will promptly be disseminated to you in a
manner reasonably designed to inform you of such change. In the case of an
extension of the offer, the extension may be followed by a press release or
public announcement which will be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City
time, on the next business day after the scheduled expiration date of our offer,
in accordance with Rule 14e-1(d) under the Exchange Act.
If we extend the offer, or if we delay payment for a unit (whether
before or after its acceptance for payment) or are unable to pay for a unit
pursuant to our offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to our rights
under the offer, the Information Agent may retain tendered units and those units
may not be withdrawn except to the extent tendering limited partners are
entitled to withdrawal rights as described in "The Offer--Section 4. Withdrawal
Rights;" subject, however, to our obligation, pursuant to Rule 14e-1(c) under
the Exchange Act, to pay the offer price in respect of units tendered or return
those units promptly after termination or withdrawal of the offer.
If we make a material change in the terms of our offer, or if we waive
a material condition to our offer, we will extend the offer and disseminate
additional tender offer materials to the extent required by Rules 14d-4 and
14e-1 under the Exchange Act. The minimum period during which the offer must
remain open following any material change in the terms of the offer, other than
a change in price or a change in percentage of securities sought or a change in
any dealer's soliciting fee, if any, will depend upon the facts and
circumstances, including the materiality of the change, but generally will be
five business days. With respect to a change in price or, subject to certain
limitations, a change in the percentage of securities sought or a change in any
dealer's soliciting fee, if any, a minimum of ten business days from the date of
such change is generally required to allow for adequate dissemination to limited
partners. Accordingly, if, prior to the expiration date, we increase (other than
increases of not more than two percent of the outstanding units) or decrease the
number of units being sought, or increase or decrease the offer price, and if
the offer is scheduled to expire at any time earlier than the tenth business day
after the date that notice of such increase or decrease is first published, sent
or given to limited partners, the offer will be extended at least until the
expiration of such ten business days. As used in the offer to purchase,
"business day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a Federal holiday,
and consists of the time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00 Midnight, New York
City time.
Pursuant to Rule 14d-11 under the Exchange Act, we may provide for a
subsequent offering period in tender offers for any and all outstanding units. A
subsequent offering period is an additional period of from three to twenty
business days following the expiration date of the offer, including any
extensions, in which limited partners may continue to tender units not tendered
in the offer for the offer price. We do not plan to offer a subsequent offering
period.
6. CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS.
The following summary is a general discussion of certain of the United
States federal income tax consequences of the offer that may be relevant to (i)
limited partners who tender some or all of their units for cash pursuant to our
offer, and (ii) limited partners who do not tender any of their units pursuant
to our offer. This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Internal Revenue Code"), Treasury Regulations, rulings issued by
the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), and judicial decisions, all as of the
date of this offer to purchase. All of the foregoing is subject to change or
alternative construction, possibly with retroactive effect, and any such change
or alternative construction could affect the continuing accuracy of this
summary. This summary is based on the assumption that your partnership is
operated in accordance with its organizational documents including its
certificate of limited partnership and agreement of limited partnership. This
summary is for general information only and does not purport to discuss all
aspects of federal income taxation which may be important to a particular person
in light of its investment or tax circumstances, or to certain types of
investors subject to special tax rules (including financial institutions,
broker-dealers, insurance companies, and, except to the extent discussed below,
tax-exempt organizations and foreign investors, as determined for United States
federal
-10-
14
income tax purposes), nor (except as otherwise expressly indicated) does it
describe any aspect of state, local, foreign or other tax laws. This summary
assumes that the units constitute capital assets in the hands of the limited
partners (generally, property held for investment). No advance ruling has been
or will be sought from the IRS regarding any matter discussed in this offer to
purchase. Further, no opinion of counsel has been obtained with regard to the
offer.
THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX TREATMENT OF A LIMITED PARTNER
PARTICIPATING IN THE OFFER DEPENDS IN SOME INSTANCES ON DETERMINATIONS OF FACT
AND INTERPRETATIONS OF COMPLEX PROVISIONS OF UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX
LAW FOR WHICH NO CLEAR PRECEDENT OR AUTHORITY MAY BE AVAILABLE. ACCORDINGLY, YOU
SHOULD CONSULT YOUR TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL, STATE,
LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF SELLING THE INTERESTS IN YOUR PARTNERSHIP
REPRESENTED BY YOUR UNITS PURSUANT TO OUR OFFER OR OF A DECISION NOT TO SELL IN
LIGHT OF YOUR SPECIFIC TAX SITUATION.
TAX CONSEQUENCES TO LIMITED PARTNERS TENDERING UNITS FOR CASH. You will
recognize gain or loss on a sale of a unit of limited partnership of your
partnership equal to the difference between (i) your "amount realized" on the
sale and (ii) your adjusted tax basis in the unit sold. The "amount realized"
will be equal to the sum of the amount of cash received by you for the unit sold
pursuant to the offer plus the amount of partnership liabilities allocable to
the unit (as determined under Section 752 of the Internal Revenue Code). Thus,
your taxable gain and tax liability resulting from a sale of a unit could exceed
the cash received upon such sale.
ADJUSTED TAX BASIS. If you acquired your units for cash, your initial
tax basis in such units was generally equal to your cash investment in your
partnership increased by your share of partnership liabilities at the time you
acquired such units. Your initial tax basis generally has been increased by (i)
your share of partnership income and gains, and (ii) any increases in your share
of partnership liabilities, and has been decreased (but not below zero) by (i)
your share of partnership cash distributions, (ii) any decreases in your share
of partnership liabilities, (iii) your share of partnership losses, and (iv)
your share of nondeductible partnership expenditures that are not chargeable to
capital. For purposes of determining your adjusted tax basis in your units
immediately prior to a disposition of your units, your adjusted tax basis in
your units will include your allocable share of partnership income, gain or loss
for the taxable year of disposition. If your adjusted tax basis is less than
your share of partnership liabilities (e.g., as a result of the effect of net
loss allocations and/or distributions exceeding the cost of your unit), your
gain recognized with respect to a unit pursuant to the offer will exceed the
cash proceeds realized upon the sale of such unit.
CHARACTER OF GAIN OR LOSS RECOGNIZED PURSUANT TO THE OFFER. Except as
described below, the gain or loss recognized by you on a sale of a unit pursuant
to the offer generally will be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if
you held the unit for more than one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by
individuals and certain other noncorporate taxpayers generally will be subject
to a maximum United States federal income tax rate of 20%. If the amount
realized with respect to a unit of limited partnership of your partnership that
is attributable to your share of "unrealized receivables" of your partnership
exceeds the tax basis attributable to those assets, such excess will be treated
as ordinary income. Among other things, "unrealized receivables" include
depreciation recapture for certain types of property. In addition, the maximum
United States federal income tax rate applicable to persons who are noncorporate
taxpayers for net capital gains attributable to the sale of depreciable real
property (which may be determined to include an interest in a partnership such
as your units) held for more than one year is currently 25% (rather than 20%)
with respect to that portion of the gain attributable to depreciation deductions
previously taken on the property.
If you tender a unit of limited partnership interest of your
partnership in the offer, you will be allocated a share of partnership taxable
income or loss for the year of tender with respect to any units sold. You will
not receive any future distributions on units tendered on or after the date on
which such units are accepted for purchase and, accordingly, you may not receive
any distributions with respect to such accreted income. Such allocation and any
partnership cash distributions to you for that year will affect your adjusted
tax basis in your unit and, therefore, the amount of your taxable gain or loss
upon a sale of a unit pursuant to the offer.
PASSIVE ACTIVITY LOSSES. The passive activity loss rules of the
Internal Revenue Code limit the use of losses derived from passive activities,
which generally include investments in limited partnership interests such as
your units. An individual, as well as certain other types of investors,
generally cannot use losses from passive activities to offset nonpassive
activity income received during the taxable year. Passive losses that are
disallowed
-11-
15
for a particular tax year are "suspended" and may be carried forward to offset
passive activity income earned by the investor in future taxable years. In
addition, such suspended losses may be claimed as a deduction, subject to other
applicable limitations, upon a taxable disposition of the investor's interest in
such activity.
Accordingly, if your investment in your units is treated as a passive
activity, you may be able to reduce gain from the sale of your units pursuant to
the offer with passive losses in the manner described below. If you sell all or
a portion of your units pursuant to the offer and recognize a gain on your sale,
you will generally be entitled to use your current and "suspended" passive
activity losses (if any) from your partnership and other passive sources to
offset that gain. In general, if you sell all or a portion of your units
pursuant to the offer and recognize a loss on such sale, you will be entitled to
deduct that loss currently (subject to other applicable limitations) against the
sum of your passive activity income from your partnership for that year (if any)
plus any passive activity income from other sources for that year. If you sell
all of your units pursuant to the offer, the balance of any "suspended" losses
from your partnership that were not otherwise utilized against passive activity
income as described in the two preceding sentences will generally no longer be
suspended and will generally therefore be deductible (subject to any other
applicable limitations) by you against any other income for that year,
regardless of the character of that income. You are urged to consult your tax
advisor concerning whether, and the extent to which, you have available
"suspended" passive activity losses from your partnership or other investments
that may be used to reduce gain from the sale of units pursuant to the offer.
INFORMATION REPORTING, BACKUP WITHHOLDING AND FIRPTA. If you tender any
units, you must report the transaction by filing a statement with your United
States federal income tax return for the year of the tender which provides
certain required information to the IRS. To prevent the possible application of
back-up United States federal income tax withholding of 31% with respect to the
payment of the offer consideration, you are generally required to provide us
with your correct taxpayer identification number. See the instructions to the
acknowledgment and agreement set forth in the letter of transmittal attached as
Annex II.
Gain realized by a foreign person on the sale of a unit pursuant to the
offer will be subject to federal income tax under the Foreign Investment in Real
Property Tax Act of 1980. Under these provisions of the Internal Revenue Code,
the transferee of an interest held by a foreign person in a partnership which
owns United States real property generally is required to deduct and withhold
10% of the amount realized on the disposition. Amounts withheld would be
creditable against a foreign person's United States federal income tax liability
and, if in excess thereof, a refund could be claimed from the Internal Revenue
Service by filing a United States income tax return. See the instructions to the
acknowledgment and agreement set forth in the letter of transmittal attached as
Annex II.
TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-TENDERING AND PARTIALLY-TENDERING LIMITED
PARTNERS. Section 708 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that if there is a
sale or exchange of 50% or more of the total interest in capital and profits of
a partnership within any 12-month period, such partnership terminates for United
States federal income tax purposes. It is possible that our acquisition of units
pursuant to the offer alone or in combination with other transfers of interests
in your partnership could result in such a termination of your partnership. If
your partnership is deemed to terminate for tax purposes, the following federal
income tax events will be deemed to occur: the terminated partnership will be
deemed to have contributed all of its assets (subject to its liabilities) to a
new partnership in exchange for an interest in the new partnership and,
immediately thereafter, the old partnership will be deemed to have distributed
interests in the new partnership to the remaining limited partners in proportion
to their respective interests in the old partnership in liquidation of the old
partnership.
You will not recognize any gain or loss upon such deemed contribution
of your partnership's assets to the new partnership or upon such deemed
distribution of interests in the new partnership, and your capital account in
your partnership will carry over to the new partnership. A termination of your
partnership for federal income tax purposes may change (and possibly shorten)
your holding period with respect to interests in your partnership that you
choose to retain. Gain recognized by you on the disposition of retained units
with a holding period of 12 months or less may be classified as short-term
capital gain and subject to taxation at ordinary income tax rates.
A termination of your partnership for federal income tax purposes may
also subject the assets of your partnership to longer depreciable lives than
those currently applicable to the assets of your partnership. This would
generally decrease the annual average depreciation deductions allocable to you
for certain years following our offer if you do not tender all of your interests
in your partnership (thereby increasing the taxable income allocable to your
-12-
16
interests in your partnership each such year), but would have no effect on the
total depreciation deductions available over the useful lives of the assets of
your partnership. Additionally, upon a termination of your partnership, the
taxable year of your partnership will close for federal income tax purposes.
7. EFFECTS OF THE OFFER.
Because the general partner of your partnership is our subsidiary, we
have control over the management of your partnership. We also own the company
that currently manages the residential property owned by your partnership. In
addition, we and our affiliates own 31,212.75, or 63.45%, of the outstanding
units of your partnership. Because we and our affiliates own a majority of the
outstanding units and control your partnership's general partner, we control the
outcome of all voting decisions with respect to your partnership. Even if we
acquire a lesser number of units pursuant to this offer, we will be able to
significantly influence the outcome of all voting decisions with respect to your
partnership. In general, we will vote the units owned by us in whatever manner
we deem to be in our best interests, which may not be in the interest of other
limited partners. This could (1) prevent non-tendering limited partners from
taking action that they desire but that we oppose and (2) enable us to take
action desired by us but opposed by non-tendering limited partners. We are also
affiliated with the company that currently manages, and has managed for some
time, the property owned by your partnership. In the event that we acquire a
substantial number of units pursuant to this offer, removal of the property
manager may become more difficult or impossible.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO US. If we acquire units in the offer, we will
participate in any subsequent distributions to limited partners to the extent of
the units purchased.
PARTNERSHIP STATUS. We believe our purchase of units should not
adversely affect the issue of whether your partnership is classified as a
partnership for federal income tax purposes.
BUSINESS. Our offer will not affect the operation of the property owned
by your partnership. We will continue to control the general partner of your
partnership and the residential property manager, both of which will remain the
same. Consummation of the offer will not affect your agreement of limited
partnership, the operations of your partnership, the business and properties
owned by your partnership or any other matter relating to your partnership,
except it would result in us increasing our ownership of units. We have no
current intention of changing the fee structure for your general partner or the
manager of your partnership's residential property.
EFFECT ON TRADING MARKET; REGISTRATION UNDER 12(g) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT.
If a substantial number of units are purchased pursuant to the offer, the result
will be a reduction in the number of limited partners in your partnership. In
the case of certain kinds of equity securities, a reduction in the number of
securityholders might be expected to result in a reduction in the liquidity and
volume of activity in the trading market for the security. In the case of your
partnership, however, there is no established public trading market for the
units and, therefore, we do not believe a reduction in the number of limited
partners will materially further restrict your ability to find purchasers for
your units through secondary market transactions.
The units are registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, which
means, among other things, that your partnership is required to file periodic
reports with the SEC and to comply with the SEC's proxy rules. We do not expect
or intend that consummation of the offer will cause the units to cease to be
registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. If the units were to be held
by fewer than 300 persons, your partnership could apply to de-register the units
under the Exchange Act. Your partnership had approximately 2,191 limited
partners as of December 31, 2000. If units are tendered which would result in
less than 320 limited partners, we will purchase no more than 99% of the units
tendered by each limited partner to assure that there are more than 300 limited
partners after the offer. See "The Offer--Section 1. Terms of the Offer;
Expiration Date."
ACCOUNTING TREATMENT. Upon consummation of the offer, we will account
for our investment in any acquired units under the purchase method of
accounting. There will be no effect on the accounting treatment of your
partnership as a result of the offer.

SUMMARY SELECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION FOR AIMCO PROPERTIES, L.P. The

(c) AIMCO Properties, L.P.'s management believes that the presentation of

determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
provides a useful measure of performance. However, FFO does not
represent cash flow and is not necessarily indicative of cash flow or
liquidity available to AIMCO Properties, L.P., nor should it be
considered as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of
operating performance. The Board of Governors of the National
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines FFO as
net income (loss), computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, excluding gains and losses from debt
restructuring and sales of property, plus real estate related
depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of financing
costs), and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint
ventures. AIMCO Properties, L.P. calculates FFO based on the NAREIT
definition, as adjusted for the amortization of goodwill, the non-cash
deferred portion of the income tax provision for unconsolidated
subsidiaries and less the payments of distributions on preferred
limited partnership interests. AIMCO Properties, L.P.'s management
believes that presentation of FFO provides investors with
industry-accepted measurements which help facilitate an understanding
of its ability to make required dividend payments, capital expenditures
and principal payments on its debt. There can be no assurance that
AIMCO Properties, L.P.'s basis of computing FFO is comparable with that
of other REITs.
The following is a reconciliation of net income to funds from
operations:

9. BACKGROUND AND REASONS FOR THE OFFER.
GENERAL. We are in the business of acquiring direct and indirect
interests in apartment properties such as the properties owned by your
partnership. Our offer provides us with an opportunity to increase our ownership
interest in your partnership's property while providing you and other investors
with an opportunity to liquidate your current investment.
BACKGROUND. On October 1, 1998, AIMCO merged (the "Insignia Merger")
with Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia"). As a result of the Insignia
Merger, AIMCO acquired approximately 51% of the outstanding common shares of
beneficial interest of Insignia Properties Trust ("IPT"). Through the Insignia
Merger, AIMCO also acquired a majority ownership interest in the entity that
manages the residential properties owned by your partnership. On October 31,
1998, IPT and AIMCO entered into an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of
October 1, 1998, pursuant to which IPT merged with AIMCO on February 26, 1999.
AIMCO then contributed IPT's interest in Insignia Properties L.P., IPT's
operating partnership, to AIMCO's wholly owned subsidiary, AIMCO/IPT, Inc. AIMCO
also replaced IPT as the sole general partner of Insignia Properties L.P. As a
result, the general partner of your partnership is an indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of AIMCO/IPT and the property manager is our indirect wholly owned
subsidiary. Together with its affiliates and subsidiaries, AIMCO currently owns,
in the aggregate, approximately 60.37 % of your partnership's outstanding
limited partnership units.
During our negotiations with Insignia in early 1998, we decided that if
the merger with Insignia were consummated, we could also benefit from making
offers for limited partnership interests of some of the limited partnerships
formerly controlled or managed by Insignia (the "Insignia Partnerships"). Such
offers would provide liquidity for the limited partners of the Insignia
Partnerships and would provide us with a larger asset and capital base and
increased diversification. While some of the Insignia Partnerships are public
partnerships and information is publicly available on such partnerships for
weighing the benefits of making a tender offer, many of the partnerships are
private partnerships and information about such partnerships comes principally
from the general partner. Our control of the general partner makes it possible
for us to obtain access to such information. Further, such control also means
that we control the operations of the partnerships and their properties.
Insignia did not propose that we conduct such tender offers; rather, we
initiated the offers on our own. As of the date of this offering, AIMCO
Properties, L.P. has made offers to several of the Insignia Partnerships,
including your partnership.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED BY YOUR GENERAL PARTNER. Before we commenced
this offer, your general partner (which is our subsidiary) considered a number
of alternative transactions. The following is a brief discussion of the
advantages and disadvantages of the alternatives considered by your general
partner.
LIQUIDATION
One alternative would be for the partnership to sell its assets,
distribute the net liquidation proceeds to its partners in accordance with the
agreement of limited partnership, and thereafter dissolve. Partners would be at
liberty to use the net liquidation proceeds after taxes for investment,
business, personal or other purposes, at their option. If your partnership were
to sell its assets and liquidate, you would not need to rely upon capitalization
of income or other valuation methods to estimate the fair market value of
partnership assets. Instead, such assets would be valued through negotiations
with prospective purchasers (in many cases unrelated third parties).
However, in the opinion of your general partner, which is our
subsidiary, the present time may not be the most desirable time to sell the
residential real estate assets of your partnership in a private transaction, and
the proceeds realized from any such sale would be uncertain. Your general
partner believes it currently is in the best interest of your partnership to
continue holding its real estate assets. See "The Offer--Section 13. Certain
Information Concerning Your Partnership--Investment Objectives and Policies;
Sale or Financing of Investments."
CONTINUATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP WITHOUT THE OFFER
A second alternative would be for your partnership to continue as a
separate legal entity with its own assets and liabilities and continue to be
governed by its existing agreement of limited partnership, without our offer. A
number of advantages could result from the continued operation of your
partnership. Given improving rental market
-17-
21
conditions or improved operating performance, the level of distributions might
increase over time. It is possible that the private resale market for properties
could improve over time, making a sale of the partnership's property at some
point in the future a more attractive option than it is currently. The
continuation of your partnership will allow you to continue to participate in
the net income and any increases in revenue of your partnership and any net
proceeds from the sale of the property owned by your partnership. However, no
assurance can be given as to future operating results or as to the results of
any future attempts to sell the property owned by your partnership.
The primary disadvantage of continuing the operations of your
partnership is that you would be limited in your ability to sell your units.
Although you could sell your units to a third party, any such sale would likely
be at a discount from your pro rata share of the fair market value of the
property owned by your partnership.
ALTERNATIVE TRANSACTIONS CONSIDERED BY US. Before we decided to make
our offer, we considered a number of alternative transactions, including
purchasing your partnership's property or merging your partnership with us.
However, both of these alternatives would require a vote of all the limited
partners. If the transaction were approved, all of the limited partners,
including those who wish to continue to participate in the ownership of your
partnership's properties, would be forced to participate in the transaction. If
the transaction were not approved, all of the limited partners, including those
who would like to dispose of their investment in your partnership's property,
would be forced to retain their investment. We also considered an offer to
exchange units in your partnership for units of AIMCO Properties, L.P. However,
because of the expense and delay associated with making such an exchange offer,
we decided to make an offer for cash only. In addition, our historical
experience has been that most holders of limited partnership units, when given a
choice, prefer cash.
DETERMINATION OF OFFER PRICE. In establishing the offer price, we
principally considered:
o The partnership's annualized operating results for the first
six months of 2001, as capitalized using the direct
capitalization method;
o Prices at which the units have recently sold, to the extent
such information is available to us; and
o The absence of a liquid trading market for the units.
Our determination of the offer price was based on our review and
analysis of the foregoing information, the other financial information and the
analyses concerning the partnership summarized below.
VALUATION OF UNITS. We determined our offer price by: (i) applying a
capitalization rate to your partnership's annualized operating results for the
first six months of 2001; (ii) adjusting this value for liabilities, non-real
estate assets, and certain other costs; and (iii) determining the proceeds that
would be paid to limited partners in the event of a liquidation of your
partnership. First, we estimated the gross property value of your partnership's
property by applying a capitalization rate to the partnership's annualized
operating results for the first six months of 2001 to obtain its estimated gross
property value. We then calculated the value of the equity of your partnership
by adding to the aggregate gross property value the value of the non-real estate
assets of your partnership and deducting its liabilities and certain other
costs, including required capital expenditures, deferred maintenance and closing
costs, to derive its net equity value. Finally, using this net equity value, we
determined the proceeds that would be paid to limited partners in the event of a
liquidation of your partnership. Of the estimated liquidation proceeds, 86% are
assumed to be distributed to limited partners. Our offer price represents the
per unit liquidation proceeds determined in this manner.

COMPARISON OF OFFER PRICE TO ALTERNATIVE CONSIDERATION. To assist
holders of units in evaluating the offer, your general partner, which is our
subsidiary, has attempted to compare the offer price against: (a) prices at
which the units have sold on the secondary market and (b) estimates of the value
of the units on a liquidation basis. The general partner of your partnership
believes that analyzing the alternatives in terms of estimated value, based upon
currently available data and, where appropriate, reasonable assumptions made in
good faith, establishes a reasonable framework for comparing alternatives. Since
the value of the consideration for alternatives to the offer is dependent upon
varying market conditions, no assurance can be given that the estimated values
reflect the range of possible values.
The results of these comparative analyses are summarized in the chart
below. You should bear in mind that some of the alternative values are based on
a variety of assumptions that have been made by us. These assumptions relate to,
among other things, the operating results, if any, since June 30, 2001 as to
income and expenses of the property, other projected amounts and the
capitalization rates that may be used by prospective buyers if your partnership
assets were to be liquidated.
In addition, these estimates are based upon certain information
available to your general partner, which is our subsidiary, or an affiliate at
the time the estimates were computed, and no assurance can be given that the
same conditions analyzed by it in arriving at the estimates of value would exist
at the time of the offer. The assumptions used have been determined by the
general partner of your partnership or an affiliate in good faith, and, where
appropriate, are based upon current and historical information regarding your
partnership and current real estate markets, and have been highlighted below to
the extent critical to the conclusions of the general partner of your
partnership. Actual results may vary from those set forth below based on
numerous factors, including interest rate fluctuations, tax law changes, supply
and demand for similar apartment properties, the manner in which your
partnership's property is sold and changes in availability of capital to finance
acquisitions of apartment properties.
Under your partnership's agreement of limited partnership, the term of
the partnership will continue until December 31, 2006, unless sooner terminated
as provided in the agreement or by law.

PRIOR TENDER OFFERS.
2001. On February 28, 2001, we completed a tender offer commenced on
January 31, 2001. We acquired 776 units in that offer at a price of $385 per
unit. In that case, we determined the offer price using the same basic method
with respect to the partnership's residential property as we used for the
current offer, except that we included budgeted 2000 property income in the
calculation.
-19-
23
2000. On May 15, 2000, we commenced a tender offer at the price of $402
per unit. In that case, we determined the offer price using the same basic
method with respect to the partnership's residential property as we used for the
current offer, except that we applied a capitalization rate to 1999 property
income for that property. We acquired 926.10 units in that offer. In November
2000, we acquired 20 units in private transactions at a price of $402 per unit.
1999. In November 1999, we commenced a tender offer at the original
offer price of $361 per unit, and in our June 1999 tender offer, we offered a
price of $310 per unit. We determined the offer price using the same basic
method for the current offer but used property income for an earlier period.
PRICES ON SECONDARY MARKET. Secondary market sales information is not a
reliable measure of value because of the limited amount of any known trades.
Except for offers made by use and unaffiliated third parties, privately
negotiated sales and sales through intermediaries are the only means which may
be available to a limited partner to liquidate an investment in units (other
than our offer) because the units are not listed or traded on any exchange or
quoted on Nasdaq, on the Electronic Bulletin Board, or in "pink sheets."
Secondary sales activity for the units, including privately negotiated sales,
has been limited and sporadic.
Set forth below are the high and low sale prices of units for the year
ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended June 30, 2001, as reported by
The Partnership Spectrum, which is an independent, third-party source. The
gross sales prices reported by The Partnership Spectrum do not necessarily
reflect the net sales proceeds received by sellers of units, which typically are
reduced by commissions and other secondary market transaction costs to amounts
less than the reported price. The Partnership Spectrum represents only one
source of secondary sales information, and other services may contain prices for
the units that equal or exceed the sales prices reported in The Partnership
Spectrum. We do not know whether the information compiled by The Partnership
Spectrum is accurate or complete.

ESTIMATED LIQUIDATION PROCEEDS. Liquidation value is a measure of the
price at which the assets of your partnership would sell if disposed of by your
partnership in an arms-length transaction to a willing buyer that has access to
relevant information regarding the historical revenues and expenses of the
business. Your general partner, which is our subsidiary, estimated the
liquidation value of the units using the same direct capitalization method and
assumptions as we did in valuing the units for the offer price. The liquidation
analysis assumes that your partnership's property is sold to an independent
third party at the current property value, that other balance sheet assets
(excluding amortizing assets) and liabilities of your partnership are sold at
their book value, and that the net proceeds of sale are allocated to your
partners and limited partners in accordance with your partnership's agreement of
limited partnership.
-20-
24
The liquidation analysis assumes that the assets of your partnership
are sold in a single transaction. Should the assets be liquidated over time,
even at prices equal to those projected, distributions to limited partners from
cash flow from operations might be reduced because your partnership's fixed
costs, such as general and administrative expenses, are not proportionately
reduced with the liquidation of assets. However, for simplification purposes,
the sales of the assets are assumed to occur concurrently. The liquidation
analysis assumes that the assets are disposed of in an orderly manner and are
not sold in forced or distressed in which assets might be sold at substantial
discounts to their actual fair market value.
ALLOCATION OF CONSIDERATION. We have allocated to the limited partners
the amount of the estimated net valuation of your partnership based on your
partnership's agreement of limited partnership as if your partnership were being
liquidated at the current time.
10. POSITION OF THE GENERAL PARTNER OF YOUR PARTNERSHIP WITH RESPECT TO THE
OFFER.
The partnership and the general partner of your partnership (which is
our subsidiary) have provided the following information for inclusion in this
Offer to Purchase:
The general partner of your partnership believes the offer price and
the structure of the transaction are fair to the limited partners. In making
such determination, the general partner considered all of the factors and
information set forth below, but did not quantify or otherwise attach particular
weight to any such factors or information:
o the offer gives you an opportunity to make an individual
decision on whether to tender your units or to continue to
hold them;
o the offer price and the method used to determine the offer
price;
o the offer price is based on an estimated value of your
partnership's property that has been determined using a method
believed to reflect the valuation by buyers in the market for
similar assets;
o prices at which the units have recently sold, to the extent
such information is available;
o the absence of an established trading market for your units;
o an analysis of possible alternative transactions, including a
property sale or a liquidation of the partnership; and
o an evaluation of the financial condition and results of
operations of your partnership.
Although the general partner of your partnership is remaining neutral
and makes no recommendation as to whether you should tender or refrain from
tendering your units in this offer, the general partner believes that if you
sell your units, you should sell them for the highest offered price. While the
general partner believes our offer is fair, the general partner also believes
that you must make your own decision whether or not to participate in any offer,
based upon a number of factors, including several factors that may be personal
to you, such as your financial position, your need or desire for liquidity, your
preferences regarding the timing of when you might wish to sell your units,
other financial opportunities available to you, and your tax position and the
tax consequences to you of selling your units.
Neither the general partner of your partnership or its affiliates have
any plans or arrangements to tender any units. Except as otherwise provided in
"The Offer--Section 12. Future Plans of the Purchaser," the general partner does
not have any present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in an

involving your partnership; a purchase or sale or transfer of a material amount

distribution policies. For information relating to certain relationships between
your partnership and its general partner, on one hand, and AIMCO and its
affiliates, on the other and conflicts of interests with respect to the tender
offer, see "The Offer--Section 9. Background and Reasons for the Offer" and "The
Offer--Section 11. Conflicts of Interests and Transactions with Affiliates." See
also "The Offer--Section 9. Background and Reasons for the Offer--Comparison to
Alternative Consideration--Prior Tender Offers" for certain information
regarding transactions in units of your partnership.
11. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER. The general partner of
your partnership is our subsidiary. Accordingly, the general partner of your
partnership has substantial conflicts of interest with respect to the offer. As
a consequence of our ownership of units, we may have incentives to seek to
maximize the value of our ownership of units, which in turn may result in a
conflict for your general partner in attempting to reconcile our interests with
the interests of the other limited partners. We desire to purchase units at a
low price and you desire to sell units at a high price. Although the general
partner believes our offer is fair, it makes no recommendation as to whether you
should tender or refrain from tendering your units. Such conflicts of interest
in connection with the offer differ from those conflicts of interest that
currently exist for your partnership. YOU ARE URGED TO READ THIS OFFER TO
PURCHASE IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER YOUR UNITS.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST THAT CURRENTLY EXIST FOR YOUR PARTNERSHIP. We own
both the general partner of your partnership and the property manager of your
partnership's residential property. The general partner of your partnership
received total fees and reimbursements of $228,000 in 1998, $360,000 in 1999,
and $367,000 in 2000. Total fees and reimbursements for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 were $398,000 ($796,000 annualized) and included a $108,000 fee
paid in connection with the refinancing of the Doral Springs Apartments. The
property manager is entitled to receive five percent of gross receipts from the
partnership's residential property for providing property management services.
It received management fees of $572,000 in 1998, $598,000 in 1999, and $571,000
in 2000. Management fees for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were $304,000
($608,000 annualized). We have no current intention of changing the fee
structure for your general partner or the manager of your partnership's
residential property.
COMPETITION AMONG PROPERTIES. Because AIMCO and your partnership both
invest in apartment properties, these properties may compete with one another
for tenants. Furthermore, you should bear in mind that AIMCO may acquire
properties in general market areas where your partnership's property is located.
We believe that this concentration of properties in a general market area will
facilitate overall operations through collective advertising efforts and other
operational efficiencies. In managing AIMCO's properties, we will attempt to
reduce conflicts between competing properties by referring prospective customers
to the property considered to be most conveniently located for the customer's
needs.
FUTURE OFFERS. Although we have no current plans to conduct future
tender offers for your units, our plans may change based on future
circumstances, including tender offers made by third parties. Any such future
offers that we might make could be for consideration that is more or less than
the consideration we are currently offering.
12. FUTURE PLANS OF THE PURCHASER.
As described above under "The Offer--Section 9. Background and Reasons
for the Offer," we own the general partner and thereby control the management of
your partnership. In addition, we own the manager of your partnership's
residential property. We currently intend that, upon consummation of the offer,
we will hold the units acquired and your partnership will continue its business
and operations substantially as they are currently being conducted. The offer is
not expected to have any effect on partnership operations.
Although we have no present intention to do so, we may acquire
additional units or sell units after completion or termination of the offer. Any
acquisition may be made through private purchases, through one or more future
tender or exchange offers, by merger, consolidation or by any other means deemed
advisable. Any acquisition may be at a price higher or lower than the price to
be paid for the units purchased pursuant to this offer, and may be for cash,
limited partnership interests in AIMCO Properties, L.P. or other consideration.
We also may
-22-
26
consider selling some or all of the units we acquire pursuant to this offer to
persons not yet determined, which may include our affiliates. We may also buy
your partnership's property, although we have no present intention to do so.
There can be no assurance, however, that we will initiate or complete, or will
cause your partnership to initiate or complete, any subsequent transaction
during any specific time period following the expiration of the offer or at all.
Except as set forth herein, we do not have any present plans or
proposals which relate to or would result in an extraordinary transaction, such
as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving your partnership; a
purchase or sale or transfer of a material amount of your partnership's assets;
any changes in composition of your partnership's senior management or personnel
or their compensation; any changes in your partnership's present capitalization,
indebtedness or distribution policy; or any other material changes in your
partnership's structure or business. We or our affiliates may loan funds to your
partnership which may be secured by your partnership's property. If any such
loans are made, upon default of such loans, we or our affiliates could seek to
foreclose on the loan and related mortgage or security interest. However, we
expect that, consistent with your general partner's fiduciary obligations, the
general partner will seek and review opportunities, including opportunities
identified by us, to engage in transactions which could benefit your
partnership, such as sales or refinancings of assets or a combination of the
partnership with one or more other entities, with the objective of seeking to
maximize returns to limited partners.
We have been advised that the possible future transactions the general
partner expects to consider on behalf of your partnership include: (i) payment
of extraordinary distributions; (ii) refinancing, reducing or increasing
existing indebtedness of the partnership; (iii) sales of assets, individually or
as part of a complete liquidation; and (iv) mergers or other consolidation
transactions involving the partnership. Any such merger or consolidation
transaction could involve other limited partnerships in which your general
partner or its affiliates serve as general partners, or a combination of the
partnership with one or more existing, publicly traded entities (including,
possibly, affiliates of AIMCO), in any of which limited partners might receive
cash, common stock or other securities or consideration. There is no assurance,
however, as to when or whether any of the transactions referred to above might
occur. If any such transaction is effected by the partnership and financial
benefits accrue to its limited partners, we will participate in those benefits
to the extent of our ownership of units. The agreement of limited partnership
prohibits limited partners from voting on actions taken by the partnership,
unless otherwise specifically permitted therein. Limited partners may vote on a
liquidation, and we and our affiliates will be able to significantly influence
or control the outcome of any such vote. Our primary objective in seeking to
acquire the units pursuant to the offer is not, however, to influence the vote
on any particular transaction, but rather to generate a profit on the investment
represented by those units.
13. CERTAIN INFORMATION CONCERNING YOUR PARTNERSHIP.
GENERAL. CONSOLIDATED CAPITAL GROWTH FUND was organized on December 20,
1976 under the laws of the State of California. Its primary business is real
estate ownership and related operations. Your partnership was formed for the
purpose of making investments in income-producing commercial and residential
real estate.
Your partnership's investment portfolio currently consists of four (4)
residential apartment complexes: Breckinridge Square Apartments, a 294-unit
complex in Louisville, Kentucky; Churchill Park Apartments, a 384-unit complex
in Louisville, Kentucky; The Lakes Apartments, a 600-unit complex in Raleigh,
North Carolina; and Doral Springs Apartments, a 368-unit complex in Miami,
Florida.
The general partner of your partnership is ConCap Equities, Inc., which
is a wholly owned subsidiary of AIMCO. A wholly owned subsidiary of AIMCO also
serves as manager of the residential property owned by your partnership. As of
December 31, 2000, there were 49,196 units issued and outstanding, which were
held of record by approximately 2,191 limited partners. Your partnership's and
general partner's principal executive offices are located at Colorado Center,
Tower Two, 2000 South Colorado Boulevard, Suite 2-1000, Denver, Colorado 80222,
telephone (303) 757-8101.
For additional information about your partnership, please refer to the
annual report prepared by your partnership which was sent to you prior to this
offer to purchase, particularly Item 2 of Form 10-KSB, which contains detailed
information regarding the properties owned, including mortgages, rental rates
and taxes.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES; SALE OR FINANCING OF INVESTMENTS.
In general, your general partner (which is our subsidiary) regularly evaluates
the partnership's property by considering various factors, such as the
partnership's financial position and real estate and capital markets conditions.
The general partner monitors the property's specific locale and sub-market
conditions (including stability of the surrounding neighborhood), evaluating
current trends, competition, new construction and economic changes. It oversees
the property's operating performance and continuously evaluates the physical
improvement requirements. In addition, the financing structure for the property
(including any prepayment penalties), tax implications, availability of
attractive mortgage financing to a purchaser, and the investment climate are all
considered. Any of these factors, and possibly others, could potentially
contribute to any decision by the general partner to sell, refinance, upgrade
with capital improvements or hold the partnership property. If rental market
conditions improve, the level of distributions might increase over time. It is
possible that the private resale market for properties could improve over time,
making a sale of the partnership's property in a private transaction at some
point in the future a more viable option than it is currently. After taking into
account the foregoing considerations, your general partner is not currently
seeking a sale of your partnership's property primarily because it expects the
property's operating performance to improve in the long term. In making this
assessment, your general partner noted the occupancy and rental rates at the
residential property. In particular, the general partner noted that it expects
to spend approximately $976,000 for capital improvements at the residential
property in 2001 to repair and update the property. Although there can be no
assurance as to future performance, however, these expenditures are expected to
improve the desirability of the property to tenants. Another significant factor
considered by your general partner is the likely tax consequences of a sale of
the property for cash. Such a transaction would likely result in tax liabilities
for many limited partners.
TERM OF YOUR PARTNERSHIP. Under your partnership's agreement of limited
partnership, the term of the partnership will continue until December 31, 2006
unless sooner terminated as provided in the agreement or by law. Limited
partners could, as an alternative to tendering their units, take a variety of
possible actions, including voting to liquidate the partnership or amending the
agreement of limited partnership to authorize limited partners to cause the
partnership to merge with another entity or engage in a "roll-up" or similar
transaction.
CAPITAL REPLACEMENTS. Your partnership has an ongoing program of
capital improvements, replacements and renovations, including interior and
exterior building improvements, cabinet, floor covering and appliance
replacements and other replacements and renovations in the ordinary course of
business. All capital improvements and renovation costs, which are budgeted at
$976,000 for 2001, are expected to be paid from operating cash flows or cash
reserves, or from short-term or long-term borrowings.
COMPETITION. There are other residential properties within the market
area of your partnership's property. The number and quality of competitive
properties in such an area could have a material effect on the rental market for
the apartments at your partnership's property and the rents that may be charged
for such apartments. While AIMCO is a significant factor in the United States in
the apartment industry, competition for apartments is local. According to data
published by the National Multi-Housing Council, we believe AIMCO is the largest
owner and manager of multifamily apartment properties in the United States.
FINANCIAL DATA. The selected financial information of your partnership
set forth below for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 is based on
audited financial statements. The selected financial information set forth below
for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 is based on unaudited financial
statements. This information should be read in conjunction with such financial
statements, including notes thereto, and "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Your Partnership" in the
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of your partnership for the year ended December 31,
2000, and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended June 30,
2001.

14. VOTING POWER.
Decisions with respect to the day-to-day management of your partnership
are the responsibility of the general partner. Because the general partner of
your partnership is our subsidiary, we control the management of your
partnership. Under your partnership's agreement of limited partnership, limited
partners holding a majority of the outstanding units must approve certain
extraordinary transactions, including the removal of the general partner, most
amendments to the partnership agreement and the sale of all or substantially all
of your partnership's assets. Because we and our affiliates own a majority of
the outstanding units, we control the voting decisions made by the limited
partners.

15. SOURCE OF FUNDS.
We expect that approximately $4,262,030 will be required to purchase
all of the limited partnership units that we are seeking in this offer
(exclusive of fees and expenses estimated to be $15,000). For more information
regarding fees and expenses, see "The Offer--Section 19. Fees and Expenses."
We have a secured $350 million revolving credit facility with Bank of
America, Fleet National Bank (successor in interest to BankBoston, N.A.) and
First Union National Bank with a syndicate comprised of a total of nine lender
participants. AIMCO Properties, L.P. is the borrower and all obligations
thereunder are guaranteed by AIMCO and certain of its subsidiaries. The
obligations under the credit facility are secured, among other things, by our
pledge of our stock ownership in certain subsidiaries of AIMCO, a pledge of
certain options to purchase beneficial assignment interests in one entity, and a
pledge of certain of our non-real estate assets. The annual interest rate under
the credit facility is based on either LIBOR or a base rate which is the higher
of Bank of America's reference rate or 0.5% over the federal funds rate, plus,
in either case, an applicable margin. The margin ranges between 2.05% and 2.55%
in the case of LIBOR-based loans and between 0.55% and 1.05% in the case of base
rate loans, based upon a fixed charge coverage ratio. The credit facility
expires in July 2002.
We are concurrently making offers to acquire interests in other limited
partnerships. We believe that we will have sufficient cash on hand and available
sources of financing to acquire all units tendered pursuant to the offer. As of
June 30, 2001, we had $40.7 million of cash on hand and $167 million available
for borrowing under existing lines of credit. We intend to repay any amounts
borrowed to finance the offer out of future working capital.
16. DISSENTERS' RIGHTS.
Neither the agreement of limited partnership of your partnership nor
applicable law provides any right for you to have your units appraised or
redeemed in connection with, or as a result of, our offer. You have the
opportunity to make an individual decision on whether or not to tender your
units in the offer.
17. CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of our offer, we will not be
required to accept for payment and pay for any units tendered pursuant to our
offer, may postpone the purchase of, and payment for, units tendered, and may
terminate or amend our offer if at any time on or after the date of this offer
to purchase and at or before the expiration of our offer (including any
extension thereof), any of the following shall occur or may be reasonably
expected to occur:

act of God that, in our reasonable judgment, are or may be
materially adverse to your partnership or the value of the
units to us, or we shall have become aware of any facts
relating to your partnership, its indebtedness or its
operations which, in our reasonable judgment, has or may have
material significance with respect to the value of your

trading in, or limitation on prices for, securities on any
national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market in
the United States, (ii) a decline in the closing price of a

shall have occurred at least a 25 basis point increase in
LIBOR, or at least a 5.0% decrease in the price of the 10-year
Treasury Bond or the 30-year Treasury Bond, or at least a 5.0%
decrease in the S&P 500 Index or the Morgan Stanley REIT
Index, in each case from the date hereof, (iv) any material
adverse change in the commercial mortgage financing markets,
(v) a declaration of a banking moratorium or any suspension of
payments in respect of banks in the United States (not
existing on the date hereof), (vi) a commencement of a war,
conflict, armed hostilities or other national or
-28-

international calamity directly or indirectly involving the
United States (not existing on the date hereof), (vii) any

authority on, or any other event which, in our reasonable
judgment, might affect the extension of credit by banks or
other lending institutions, or (viii) in the case of any of
the foregoing existing at the time of the commencement of the
offer, in our reasonable judgment, a material acceleration or
worsening thereof; or
o there shall have been threatened, instituted or pending any
action, proceeding, application or counterclaim by any
Federal, state, local or foreign government, governmental
authority or governmental agency, or by any other person,
before any governmental authority, court or regulatory or
administrative agency, authority or tribunal, which (i)
challenges or seeks to challenge our purchase of the units,
restrains, prohibits or delays the making or consummation of
our offer, prohibits the performance of any of the contracts
or other arrangements entered into by us (or any affiliates of
ours), or seeks to obtain any material amount of damages as a
result of the transactions contemplated by our offer, (ii)

business or own such assets, (iv) seeks to impose material
limitations on our ability to acquire or hold or to exercise
full rights of ownership of the units including, but not
limited to, the right to vote the units purchased by us on all
matters properly presented to the limited partners, or (v)
might result, in our reasonable judgment, in a diminution in
the value of your partnership or a limitation of the benefits
expected to be derived by us as a result of the transactions
contemplated by our offer or the value of the units to us; or
o there shall be any action taken, or any statute, rule,
regulation, order or injunction shall be sought, proposed,
enacted, promulgated, entered, enforced or deemed applicable

18. CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS.
GENERAL. Except as set forth in this Section 18, we are not, based on
information provided by your general partner (which is our subsidiary), aware of
any licenses or regulatory permits that would be material to the business of
your partnership, taken as a whole, and that might be adversely affected by our
acquisition of units as contemplated herein, or any filings, approvals or other
actions by or with any domestic or foreign governmental authority or
administrative or regulatory agency that would be required prior to the
acquisition of units by us pursuant to the offer, other than the filing of a
Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with the SEC (which has already been
filed) and any required amendments thereto. While there is no present intent to
delay the purchase of units tendered pursuant to the offer pending receipt of
any such additional approval or the taking of any such action, there can be no
assurance that any such additional approval or action, if needed, would be
obtained without substantial conditions or that adverse consequences might not
result to your partnership or its business, or that certain parts of its
business might not have to be disposed of or other substantial conditions
complied with in order to obtain such approval or action, any of which could
cause us to elect to terminate the offer without purchasing units thereunder.
Our obligation to purchase and pay for units is subject to certain conditions,
including conditions related to the legal matters discussed in this Section 18.
ANTITRUST. We do not believe that the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, is applicable to the acquisition of units
contemplated by our offer.
MARGIN REQUIREMENTS. The units are not "margin securities" under the
regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and,
accordingly, those regulations generally are not applicable to our offer.
STATE LAWS. We are not aware of any jurisdiction in which the making of
our offer is not in compliance with applicable law. If we become aware of any
jurisdiction in which the making of the offer would not be in compliance with
applicable law, we will make a good faith effort to comply with any such law.
If, after such good faith effort, we cannot comply with any such law, the offer
will not be made to (nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of) limited
partners residing in such jurisdiction. In those jurisdictions with securities
or blue sky laws that require the offer to be made by a licensed broker or
dealer, the offer shall be made on behalf of us, if at all, only by one or more
registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of that jurisdiction.

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

required to accept for consideration any or all of the Units tendered hereby. In

4. TAX CERTIFICATIONS. The limited partner(s) tendering Units to the Purchaser
pursuant to the Offer must furnish the Purchaser with the limited partner(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 limited partner(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 limited partner 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 limited partners 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 limited partner being
subject to backup withholding.
Part (ii), Backup Withholding -- In order to avoid 31% Federal income tax backup
withholding, the tendering limited partner must certify, under penalty of
perjury, that such limited partner is not subject to backup withholding. Certain
limited partners (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 limited partner(s) certifies that the TIN as
printed (or corrected) on the front of the Acknowledgment and Agreement is
correct.
-41-
45
BOX 7 - FIRPTA AFFIDAVIT -- Section 1445 of the Code requires that each limited
partner 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 limited partner 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 limited partner 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.
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.
