REVISED
LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER
(AIMCO LOGO)
AIMCO PROPERTIES, L.P.
is offering to purchase any and all limited partnership units in
ANGELES INCOME PROPERTIES, LTD. II
FOR $83.27 PER UNIT IN CASH
This Litigation Settlement Offer is being made as part of a COURT APPROVED
SETTLEMENT of class and derivative litigation brought on behalf of limited
partners in your partnership and others. FINAL COURT APPROVAL OF THE SETTLEMENT,
WHICH REQUIRES THE MAKING OF THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER AS A CONDITION OF
SETTLEMENT, HAS BEEN OBTAINED. On August 12, 2003, an objector filed an appeal
of the court's order approving the settlement and is seeking to reverse or
vacate the Court's order and the judgment entered thereto. Although we reserve
our right to terminate or amend our offer if final court approval of the
settlement is reversed or vacated, we have nevertheless elected to proceed with
this offer under the terms of the settlement. Under the terms of the settlement,
the Court appointed American Appraisal Associates, Inc., as an independent
appraiser, to appraise your partnership's properties and we agreed to provide an
executive summary of the appraiser's report for each property owned by your
partnership, attached as Annex II. A complete copy of the appraiser's report
will be provided to you free of charge upon request. THE SETTLEMENT ALSO
INCLUDES THE CREATION OF A $9.9 MILLION SETTLEMENT FUND FOR MEMBERS OF THE
SETTLEMENT CLASS. AFTER DEDUCTING ATTORNEYS' FEES AND OTHER SETTLEMENT COSTS
(INCLUDING A PORTION OF THE COSTS OF THE APPRAISALS AND CERTAIN COSTS OF
ADMINISTRATION OF THE SETTLEMENT FUND), WE HAVE ALLOCATED THE REMAINING AMOUNT
IN THE SETTLEMENT FUND AMONG THE 44 REMAINING PARTNERSHIPS INVOLVED IN THE
SETTLEMENT, PRO RATA BASED ON PARTNERSHIP REVENUE FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER
31, 2002 ALLOCABLE TO UNITS HELD BY THE MEMBERS OF THE SETTLEMENT CLASS. YOUR
PRO RATA SHARE OF THE SETTLEMENT FUND IS $3.31, WHICH IS INCLUDED IN OUR OFFER
PRICE ABOVE FOR THOSE WHO TENDER.
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.
You will not pay any partnership transfer fees if you tender your units
pursuant to this offer. You will pay any other fees or costs, including any
transfer taxes.
Our offer price will be reduced for any distributions subsequently made or
declared by your partnership prior to the expiration of our offer.
Our offer and your withdrawal rights will expire at midnight, New York City
time, on December 30, 2003, unless we extend the deadline.
Neither the court nor counsel for the parties in the class and derivative
litigation make any recommendation regarding whether you should accept this
Litigation Settlement Offer. You are encouraged to carefully review this
Litigation Settlement Offer, the executive summary of the independent
appraiser's report (attached as Annex II) and any other information available to
you and to seek advice from your independent lawyer, tax advisor and/or
financial advisor before deciding whether or not to accept this Litigation
Settlement Offer.
SEE "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 5 OF THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER
FOR A DESCRIPTION OF RISK FACTORS THAT YOU SHOULD CONSIDER IN CONNECTION WITH
OUR OFFER, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
- If you want to tender your units in the offer, you must sign a letter of
transmittal in which you release us from all liability with respect to
claims that were brought or that could have been brought in the class and
derivative litigation, and assign to us your rights in any future claims.
If you requested exclusion from the settlement but tender your units, by
signing the letter of transmittal, you will release us from any claims
that you would otherwise have preserved by requesting exclusion from the
settlement class. If you did not request exclusion, you will release any
known or unknown claims arising out of the class and derivative litigation
if the judgment approving the settlement is affirmed on appeal. By
executing the enclosed letter of transmittal, moreover, you will release
those claims even if the judgment is reversed or otherwise vacated on
appeal.
(Continued on next page)
If you decide to accept our offer, you must complete and sign the enclosed
letter of transmittal in accordance with the instructions thereto and mail or

December 18, 2003
(Continued from prior page)
- We determined our offer price without any arms-length negotiations, and
independently of the recent appraisals of your partnership's property (an
executive summary of each of which is attached as Annex II). Accordingly,
our offer price may not reflect the fair market value of your units. In
addition, the determination of our offer price has not been approved by
the court or counsel for the parties in the class and derivative
litigation.
- Upon a liquidation of your partnership, if the properties were sold at a
price equal to the value determined by the independent appraiser, we
estimate that your liquidation proceeds would be approximately $217.71 per
unit, which is higher than our offer price of $83.27 per unit. In order to
understand the assumptions and methodology used to determine the
liquidation amount, please refer to "The Litigation Settlement
Offer -- Section 8. Valuation of Units -- Estimated Liquidation Proceeds
Based on Independent Appraisal."
- Your general partner and the property manager are affiliates of ours and,
therefore, your general partner has substantial conflicts of interest with
respect to our offer.
- 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.
- 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.
- If we do not acquire all of the outstanding units in your partnership, it
is possible that we may conduct a future offer at a higher price, although
we have no obligation or current intention to do so.
- 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.
- The general partner makes no recommendation as to whether you should
tender your units.
NEITHER THE COURT NOR COUNSEL FOR THE PARTIES IN THE CLASS AND DERIVATIVE
LITIGATION MAKE ANY RECOMMENDATION REGARDING WHETHER YOU SHOULD ACCEPT THIS
LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER. YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO CAREFULLY REVIEW THIS
LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER, THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THE INDEPENDENT
APPRAISER'S REPORT AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO YOU AND TO SEEK THE
ADVICE OF YOUR INDEPENDENT LAWYER, TAX ADVISOR AND/OR FINANCIAL ADVISOR BEFORE
DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO ACCEPT THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER.
THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER IS BEING OFFERED TO ALL CURRENT UNITHOLDERS
WHETHER OR NOT THEY HAVE REQUESTED EXCLUSION FROM THE SETTLEMENT CLASS. IF YOU
REQUESTED EXCLUSION FROM THE SETTLEMENT CLASS BUT TENDER YOUR UNITS, BY SIGNING
THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL, YOU WILL RELEASE US FROM CLAIMS THAT YOU WOULD
OTHERWISE HAVE PRESERVED BY REQUESTING EXCLUSION. IF YOU DID NOT REQUEST
EXCLUSION, YOU WILL RELEASE ANY KNOWN OR UNKNOWN CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF THE CLASS
AND DERIVATIVE LITIGATION IF THE JUDGMENT APPROVING THE SETTLEMENT IS AFFIRMED
ON APPEAL. BY EXECUTING THE ENCLOSED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL, MOREOVER, YOU WILL
RELEASE THOSE CLAIMS EVEN IF THE JUDGMENT IS REVERSED OR OTHERWISE VACATED ON
APPEAL.

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 Litigation Settlement Offer, which contains the full details of
our offer. We have also included in the summary term sheet references to the
sections of this Litigation Settlement Offer where a more complete discussion
may be found.
- The Litigation Settlement Offer. As part of the settlement of a class
and derivative litigation entitled Nuanes et al. v. Insignia Financial
Group, Inc. et al. and Heller v. Insignia Financial Group, Inc., et al.
on behalf of your partnership and limited partners in your partnership
and others, we are offering to acquire any and all of the limited
partnership units of your partnership for $83.27 per unit in cash. Under
the terms of the settlement, neither we nor our affiliates admit to any
wrongdoing, and we deny liability under all claims brought in this
litigation. FINAL COURT APPROVAL OF THE SETTLEMENT, WHICH REQUIRES THE
MAKING OF THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER AS A CONDITION OF SETTLEMENT,
HAS BEEN OBTAINED. On August 12, 2003, an objector filed an appeal of the
court's order approving the settlement and is seeking to reverse or
vacate the Court's order and the judgment entered thereto. Although we
reserve our right to terminate or amend our offer if final court approval
of the settlement is reversed or vacated, we have nevertheless elected to
proceed with this offer under the terms of the settlement. See "The
Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 1. Terms of the Offer; Expiration
Date," "-- Section 7. Effects of the Offer," "-- Section 8. Valuation of
Units" and "-- Section 9. The Lawsuit and the Settlement."
- The Settlement Fund. The settlement also includes the creation of a $9.9
million settlement fund for members of the settlement class. After
deducting attorneys' fees and other settlement costs (including a portion
of the costs of the appraisals and certain costs of administration of the
settlement fund), we have allocated the remaining amount in the
settlement fund among the 44 remaining partnerships involved in the
settlement, pro rata based on partnership revenue for the year ended
December 31, 2002 allocable to units held by the members of the
settlement class. Your partnership's allocated share of the settlement
fund is divided by the total number of units owned by members of the
settlement class, and the resulting amount is included in our offer price
above. Your pro rata share of the settlement fund is $3.31. If you
request exclusion from the settlement, you may tender any units in this
offer and you will be entitled to receive the same price per unit as
those unitholders who have not opted out of the settlement class.
However, no portion of the price paid to you will come from the
settlement fund.
If you do not request exclusion from the settlement and do not tender any
units in this offer, you will be entitled to receive your pro rata share
of the settlement fund (subject to adjustment) no later than June 2005 if
the Court's order approving the settlement and entering judgment thereto
is affirmed on appeal. If the Court's order is reversed or vacated by
virtue of the appeal, however, you will not be entitled to receive a pro
rata share of the settlement fund unless you tender your units in this
offer.
Under the terms of the settlement, we will pay the costs of printing and
mailing this Litigation Settlement Offer to limited partners of your
partnership, as well as other costs of notice. In addition, we have agreed
to pay 50% of the costs of the appraisals, with the other 50% to be paid
from the settlement fund.
- Factors in Determining the Offer Price. In determining the offer price
per unit we principally considered:
- your partnership's property income;
- our estimate of an appropriate capitalization rate for such property
income;
- the location, condition and debt structure of your partnership's
property;
1
- our estimate of the fees and expenses expected to be incurred by your
partnership if its properties are sold; and
- your partnership's other assets and liabilities.
- Expiration Date. Our offer expires on December 30, 2003, unless
extended, and you can tender your units until our offer expires. See "The
Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 1. Terms of the Offer; Expiration
Date."
- Right to Extend the Expiration Date. Under the settlement, we can extend
the expiration date of the offer in our sole discretion up to 90 business
days from the date of commencement. We reserve the right to extend the
offer subject to customary conditions. In the event we extend the offer,
we will either issue a press release or send you a notice of any such
extension. See "The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 5. Extension
of Tender Period; Termination; Amendment; No Subsequent Offering Period."
- How to Tender. To tender your units, complete the accompanying letter of
transmittal and send it, along with any other documents required by the
letter of transmittal, to the Information Agent, The Altman Group, Inc.,
at one of the addresses set forth on the back of this Litigation
Settlement Offer. See "The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 3.
Procedure for Tendering Units."
- Release and Assignment of Future Claims. If you want to tender your
units in the offer, you must sign a letter of transmittal in which you
release us from all liability with respect to claims that were brought or
that could have been brought in the class and derivative litigation, and
assign to us your rights in any future claims. If you requested exclusion
from the settlement but tender your units, by signing the letter of
transmittal, you will release us from claims that you would otherwise
have preserved by requesting exclusion from the settlement class. If you
did not request exclusion, you will release any known or unknown claims
arising out of the class and derivative litigation if the judgment
approving the settlement is affirmed on appeal. By executing the enclosed
letter of transmittal, moreover, you will release those claims even if
the judgment is reversed or otherwise vacated on appeal.
- Covenant Not to Sue. If you requested exclusion from the settlement but
tender your units in this offer, by signing the letter of transmittal,
you agree not to bring any action, claim, suit or proceeding against us
and those affiliates who were defendants in the class and derivative
litigation concerning any of the matters that are the subject of the
Stipulation of Settlement approved by the Court in connection with the
settlement of such class and derivative litigation, including this
Litigation Settlement Offer, other than for violations of federal or
state securities laws. If you do not request exclusion from the
settlement class, you will already have agreed not to bring any such
action, claim, suit or proceeding once the settlement is final.
- 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 January 13, 2004 if we have
not already accepted units for purchase and payment. See "The Litigation
Settlement Offer -- Section 4. Withdrawal Rights."
- 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 Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 4.
Withdrawal Rights."
- 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 Litigation Settlement
Offer -- Section 6. Certain Federal Income Tax Matters."
- Availability of Funds. We intend to pay the purchase price for any units
tendered from our existing cash balances or borrowings under our line of
credit. See "The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 17. Source of
Funds."
2
- Conditions to the Offer. There are a number of conditions to our offer,
including the absence of competing tender offers, that there be no
material change with respect to our financial condition, the absence of
certain changes in your partnership, and the absence of certain changes
in the financial markets. If we are unable to accept the units tendered
in this Litigation Settlement Offer due to a failure of any or all of the
conditions of our offer to be satisfied, we will conduct another offer in
accordance with the terms of the settlement (which will occur no later
than six months after the date of the commencement of this offer). We
will continue this process until we have accepted for payment all units
properly tendered in an offer conducted in accordance with the terms of
the settlement. See "The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 19.
Conditions to the Offer."
- Remaining as a Limited Partner. If you do not tender your units, you
will remain a limited partner in your partnership. We have no plans to
alter the operations, business or financial position of your partnership.
However, if there are fewer than 300 unitholders in your partnership as a
result of the offer, your partnership will no longer be required to file
periodic reports with the SEC, such as annual reports on Form 10-KSB
containing annual audited financial statements, and quarterly reports on
Form 10-QSB containing unaudited financial statements. See "The
Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 7. Effects of the Offer."
- Who We Are. We are AIMCO Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of
Apartment Investment and Management Company, a New York Stock
Exchange-listed company. See "The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section
10. Information Concerning Us and Certain of Our Affiliates."
- Conflicts of Interest. NHP Management Company (which is our affiliate)
receives fees for managing your partnership's property and the general
partner of your partnership (which is our affiliate) is entitled to
receive asset management fees and 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 Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 13. Conflicts of
Interest and Transactions with Affiliates" and "-- Section 15. Certain
Information Concerning Your Partnership."
- 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. Each limited partner should make his
or her own decision whether or not to tender. YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO
CAREFULLY REVIEW THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER, THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
OF THE INDEPENDENT APPRAISER'S REPORT (ATTACHED AS ANNEX II) AND ANY
OTHER INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO YOU AND TO SEEK ADVICE FROM YOUR
INDEPENDENT LAWYER, TAX ADVISOR AND/OR FINANCIAL ADVISOR BEFORE DECIDING
WHETHER OR NOT TO ACCEPT THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER. See "The
Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 12. Position of the General
Partner of Your Partnership With Respect to the Offer."
- Fairness of the Offer. Although we, Apartment Investment and Management
Company ("AIMCO") and AIMCO-GP, Inc. (collectively, the "AIMCO Entities")
and your general partner have interests that may conflict with those the
partnership's unaffiliated limited partners, each of the AIMCO Entities
believes that the offer price and the offer are fair to the unaffiliated
limited partners of your partnership. This determination is based on the
information and the factors set forth under "The Litigation Settlement
Offer -- Section 12. Position of Your General Partner of Your Partnership
With Respect to the Offer."
- No Subsequent Offering Period. We do not currently intend to have a
subsequent offering period after the expiration date of the initial
offering period (including any extensions). See "The Litigation
Settlement Offer -- Section 5. Extension of Tender Offer Period;
Termination; Amendment; No Subsequent Offering Period."
3
- Additional Information. For 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 Litigation Settlement
Offer.
- No Recommendation by Court or Counsel for the Parties. Neither the court
nor counsel for the parties in the class and derivative litigation make
any recommendation regarding whether you should accept this Litigation
Settlement Offer. You are encouraged to carefully review this Litigation
Settlement Offer, the executive summary of the independent appraiser's
report and any other information available to you and to seek the advice
of your independent lawyer, tax advisor and/or financial advisor before
deciding whether or not to accept this Litigation Settlement Offer.
4
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:
IF YOU TENDER YOUR UNITS IN THIS OFFER, YOU WILL RELEASE US FROM ALL LIABILITY
AND ASSIGN TO US YOUR RIGHTS IN ANY FUTURE CLAIMS.
If you want to tender your units in response to our offer, you must sign a
letter of transmittal, in which you release us and our affiliates from all
liability with respect to claims that were brought or that could have been
brought in the class and derivative litigation, and assign to us your rights in
any future claims. If you requested exclusion from the settlement but tender
your units, by signing the letter of transmittal, you will release us from
claims that you would otherwise have preserved by requesting exclusion from the
settlement class. If you did not request exclusion, you will release any known
or unknown claims arising out of the class and derivative litigation if the
judgment approving the settlement is affirmed on appeal. By executing the
enclosed letter of transmittal, moreover, you will release those claims even if
the judgment is reversed or otherwise vacated on appeal.
WE HAVE ESTABLISHED THE TERMS OF OUR OFFER WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE RECENT
APPRAISAL OF YOUR PARTNERSHIP'S PROPERTIES.
We did not base our offer price on any third party valuation or the recent
appraisal of your partnership's properties, nor did we derive our offer price
from any arms-length negotiation. Our offer price might be higher if it were
subject to independent third party negotiations. Thus, it is uncertain whether
our offer price reflects the value that would be realized upon a sale of your
units to a third party. In order to understand the assumptions and methodology
used to determine the liquidation amount, please refer to "The Litigation
Settlement Offer -- Section 8. Valuation of Units -- Estimated Liquidation
Proceeds Based on Independent Appraisal."
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 for the
twelve months ended September 30, 2003. It does not ascribe any value to
potential future improvements in the operating performance of your partnership's
property.
THE LIQUIDATION VALUE OF YOUR PARTNERSHIP UNITS EXCEEDS OUR OFFER PRICE.
If your partnership was liquidated, and the properties sold at a price
equal to their recently appraised value, we estimate that you would receive a
liquidating distribution of $217.71 per unit, which exceeds our offer price of
$83.27 per unit. However, the actual proceeds obtained from a liquidation are
highly uncertain and could be more or less than our estimate.
CONTINUATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP; NO TIME FRAME REGARDING SALE OF PROPERTY.
Your general partner, which is our affiliate, is proposing to continue to
operate your partnership and not to attempt to liquidate it at the present time.
It is not known when the property owned by your partnership may be sold. The
market for units in the partnership is illiquid, and it may be difficult to sell
your investment in the partnership in the future. The general partner of your
partnership continually considers whether a property should be sold or otherwise
disposed of after consideration of relevant factors, including prevailing
economic conditions, availability of favorable financing and tax considerations,
with a
5
view to achieving maximum capital appreciation for your partnership. At the
current time, the general partner of your partnership believes that a sale of
the property would not be advantageous given market conditions, the condition of
the property and tax considerations. In particular, the general partner
considered the changes in the local rental market, the potential for
appreciation in the value of a property and the tax consequences to you on a
sale of property. We cannot predict when your partnership's property will be
sold or otherwise disposed of.
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. In addition, at the current time, the general
partner of your partnership believes that a sale of the property would not be
advantageous given market conditions, the condition of the property and tax
considerations. If your partnership's property were sold in the future and the
net proceeds realized therefrom were distributed to the limited partners of your
partnership, the amount of such distribution might exceed our current offer
price.
THE GENERAL PARTNER FACES CONFLICTS OF INTEREST WITH RESPECT TO THIS OFFER.
The general partner of your partnership is our affiliate 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.
YOUR GENERAL PARTNER IS NOT MAKING A RECOMMENDATION REGARDING THIS OFFER.
Your general partner of your partnership (which is our affiliate) 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. You are encouraged to carefully review this
Litigation Settlement Offer, the executive summary of the independent
appraiser's report (attached as Annex II) and any other information available to
you and to seek advice from your independent lawyer, tax advisor and/or
financial advisor before deciding whether or not to accept this Litigation
Settlement Offer.
YOUR GENERAL PARTNER FACES CONFLICTS OF INTEREST RELATING TO MANAGEMENT FEES.
Because we or our subsidiaries receive fees for managing your partnership
and its 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, for any reason, the general partner of your partnership
or the 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.
IF WE DO NOT ACQUIRE ALL OF THE OUTSTANDING UNITS IN THIS OFFER, WE MAY MAKE A
FUTURE OFFER AT A HIGHER PRICE.
It is possible that we may conduct a future offer at a higher price,
although we have no obligation or current intention to do so. In accordance with
the terms of the settlement, we may, but are not obligated to, make another
Litigation Settlement Offer within 18 months of the order finally approving the
settlement. If you decide not to tender in this offer and decide to tender in a
future settlement offer, you will receive your pro rata share of the settlement
fund at that time. Our decision to conduct a future offer
6
will depend on, among other things, the performance of the partnership,
prevailing economic conditions, and our interest in acquiring additional units.
In addition, if we are unable to accept the units tendered in this Litigation
Settlement Offer due to a failure of any or all of the conditions of our offer
to be satisfied, we will conduct another offer in accordance with the terms of
the settlement (which will occur no later than six months after the date of the
commencement of this offer). We will continue this process until we have
accepted for payment all units properly tendered in an offer conducted in
accordance with the terms of the settlement.
YOUR TAX LIABILITY RESULTING FROM A SALE OF YOUR UNITS COULD EXCEED OUR OFFER
PRICE.
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 your unit. Depending on your basis in the units and your tax position, your
tax liability resulting from a sale of units to us pursuant to the offer could
exceed our offer price. 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. We may also be required by state or local tax laws to withhold a portion
of our offer price. Because the income tax consequences of tendering units will
not be the same for everyone, you should consult your tax advisor to determine
the tax consequences of the offer to you.
YOU MAY RECOGNIZE TAXABLE GAIN ON THE AMOUNT PAID FROM THE SETTLEMENT FUND OR
FOR RELEASE AND ASSIGNMENT OF CLAIMS.
Our offer price includes $3.31, your pro rata share of the settlement fund,
unless you request exclusion from the settlement or the Court's order approving
the settlement is reversed or vacated by virtue of the appeal. If you request
exclusion from the settlement or the Court's order approving the settlement is
reversed or vacated by virtue of the appeal, an equivalent portion of the price
paid to you may be deemed a payment for your release and assignment of claims.
The proper treatment for federal income tax purposes of your receipt of amounts
from the settlement fund or deemed payments for your release and assignment of
claims is uncertain. No opinion or assurance can be given that the Internal
Revenue Service (the "IRS") will not challenge the treatment of amounts from the
settlement fund or deemed payments for your release and assignment of claims as
additional consideration for the units, and assert that such amount should be
treated as an ordinary income payment in exchange for your release and/or
assignment of current and future claims. Moreover, while the IRS has stated that
it generally will not treat attorneys' fees and costs that are paid directly to
class counsel from a settlement fund as constituting income, profit, or gain of
a member of the class (so long as the class is an opt-out class and the class
member does not have a separate contingency fee arrangement with the class
counsel), any special awards paid to claimants who actively aid in the
prosecution of a class action or who devote substantial time or expense on
behalf of a settlement class will be treated as payments for services rendered
and will be includable in that member's gross income. You should consult your
tax advisor regarding the tax consequences to you with respect to your right to,
and your receipt of, amounts from the settlement fund or deemed payments for
your release and assignment of claims, and the treatment of special awards,
attorneys' fees and costs.
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
7
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.
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 your share of the partnership liabilities. If you retain all
or a portion of your units and your share of the partnership liabilities 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.
YOU COULD BE PRECLUDED FROM TRANSFERRING YOUR UNITS FOR A 12-MONTH PERIOD.
Your partnership's agreement of limited partnership prohibits any transfer
of an interest if such transfer, together with all other transfers during the
preceding 12 months, would cause 50% or more of the total interest in capital
and profits of your partnership to be transferred within such 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 up to 90 business days from the date of commencement of the
offer, and no payment will be made in respect of tendered units until the
expiration of the offer and acceptance of units for payment.
THERE MAY BE A POSSIBLE REDUCTION OF AVAILABLE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR
PARTNERSHIP AS A RESULT OF THIS OFFER.
If there are less than 300 unitholders in your partnership upon
consummation of the offer, your partnership would no longer be required to file
periodic reports with the SEC, such as annual reports on Form 10-KSB containing
annual audited financial statements, and quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB
containing unaudited quarterly financial statements. Such reports are publicly
available and can be obtained on the SEC's web site. The lack of such filings
could adversely affect the already limited secondary market which currently
exists for units in your partnership and may discourage offers to purchase your
units. In such a case, you would regularly have access only to the information
your partnership's agreement of limited partnership requires your general
partner (which is our affiliate) to provide each year, which consists primarily
of tax information. See "The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 7. Effects
of the Offer -- Effect on Trading Market; Registration Under Section 12(g) of
the Exchange Act."
YOUR PARTNERSHIP HAS BALLOON PAYMENTS ON ITS MORTGAGE DEBT.
Your partnership has balloon payments due on its mortgage debt in September
2007. These balloon payments are under variable rate loans and, therefore, the
amount of the balloon payments will be determined based on the interest rate in
effect at the maturity of the debt. Your partnership may have to refinance such
debt, sell assets or otherwise obtain additional funds prior to the balloon
payment due dates, or it will be in a default and could lose the property to
foreclosure. See "Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 15. Certain Information
Concerning Your Partnership" for more information regarding the mortgage debt of
your partnership.

THE LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER
1. TERMS OF THE OFFER; EXPIRATION DATE
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions to 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 Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 4. Withdrawal Rights." For
purposes of the offer, the term "expiration date" shall mean midnight, New York
City time, on December 30, 2003, unless we in our sole discretion shall have
extended the period of time for which the offer is open (which may not exceed 90
business days from the date of commencement, as provided in the settlement). We
reserve the right to extend the offer subject to customary conditions. See "The
Litigation Settlement 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 or declared by your partnership
on or after the commencement of our offer and prior to the date on which we
acquire your units pursuant to our offer. If the offer price is reduced in this
manner, we will notify you and, if necessary, we will extend the offer period so
that you will have at least ten business days from the date of our notice to
withdraw your units.
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.
The offer is conditioned on satisfaction of certain conditions. THE OFFER
IS NOT CONDITIONED UPON ANY MINIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS BEING TENDERED. See "The
Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 19. Conditions to the Offer," which sets
forth in full the conditions to 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. If we are unable to accept the
units tendered in this Litigation Settlement Offer due to a failure of any or
all of the conditions of our offer to be satisfied, we will conduct another
offer in accordance with the terms of the settlement (which will occur no later
than six months after the date of the commencement of this offer). We will
continue this process until we have accepted for payment all units properly
tendered in an offer conducted in accordance with the terms of the settlement.
By executing the letter of transmittal, you will agree that the transfer of
units will be deemed to take effect as of the first day of the calendar quarter
in which the offer expires. Upon expiration of the offer, the books and records
of the partnership will reflect the change in ownership as having occurred as of
this date. For tax, accounting and financial reporting purposes, the transfer of
tendered units will be deemed to take effect on the first day of the calendar
quarter. Accordingly, all profits and losses relating to any tendered units will
be allocated to us from and after this date. If we waive any material conditions
to our offer, we will notify you and, if necessary, we will extend the offer
period so that you will have at least five business days from the date of our
notice to withdraw your units.
This offer was first mailed on or about November 14, 2003 to the persons
shown by your partnership's records to be limited partners or, in the case of
units owned of record by Individual Retirement Accounts and qualified plans,
beneficial owners of units.
2. ACCEPTANCE FOR PAYMENT AND PAYMENT FOR UNITS
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions to the offer, we will
purchase, by accepting for payment, and will pay for, any and all units validly
tendered promptly following the expiration date. A tendering
9
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 letter of transmittal and other documents required by the
letter of transmittal. See "The Litigation Settlement 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.
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 letter of transmittal 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 January 13, 2004 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 letter of transmittal, and any other required
documents must be received by the Information Agent, at one of its addresses set
forth on the back cover of this Litigation Settlement Offer, 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 letter of transmittal 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 letter of transmittal. 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 letter of transmittal. However, in all other cases, all signatures on the
letter of transmittal 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 LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL 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.
10
Appointment as Proxy; Power of Attorney. By executing the letter of
transmittal, you are irrevocably appointing us and our designees as your proxy,
in the manner set forth in the letter of transmittal 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 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 letter of transmittal, 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 letter of transmittal, 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.
Assignment of Interest in Future Distributions. By executing the letter of
transmittal, 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.
Release of Claims. By executing the letter of transmittal, effective upon
acceptance for payment of the units tendered by you, you will, on behalf of
yourself, your heirs, estate, executor, administrator,
11
successors and assigns, and your partnership, fully, finally and forever
release, relinquish and discharge us and our predecessors, successors and
assigns and our present and former parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, investors,
insurers, reinsurers, officers, directors, employees, agents, administrators,
auditors, attorneys, accountants, information and solicitation agents,
investment bankers, and other representatives, including but not limited to
AIMCO Properties, L.P. (collectively, the "Releasees"), from any and all claims
and causes of action, whether brought individually, on behalf of a class, or
derivatively, demands, rights, or liabilities, including, but not limited to,
claims for negligence, gross negligence, professional negligence, breach of duty
of care or loyalty, or breach of duty of candor, fraud, breach of fiduciary
duty, mismanagement, corporate waste, malpractice, misrepresentation, whether
intentional or negligent, misstatements and omissions to disclose, breach of
contract, violations of any state or federal statutes, rules or regulations,
whether known claims or unknown claims that have been asserted or that could
have been asserted against the Releasees, that arise out of or relate to (a)
those matters and claims set forth in the class and derivative litigation
described in this Litigation Settlement Offer, (b) the ownership of one or more
units in your partnership, including but not limited to, any and all claims
related to the management of your partnership or the properties owned by your
partnership (whether currently or previously), the payment of management fees or
other monies to the general partner of your partnership and its affiliates,
prior acquisitions or tender offers and the prior settlement, (c) the purchase,
acquisition, holding, sale, tender or voting of one or more units in your
partnership, or (d) any of the facts, circumstances, allegations, claims, causes
of action, representations, statements, reports, disclosures, transactions,
events, occurrences, acts, omissions or failures to act, of whatever kind or
character whatsoever, irrespective of the state of mind of the actor performing
or omitting to perform the same, that have been or could have been alleged in
any pleadings, amended pleading, argument, complaint, amended complaint, brief,
motion, report or filing in the class and derivative litigation described in
this Litigation Settlement Offer (collectively, the "Released Claims");
provided, however, that the Released Claims are not intended to include (i) any
unrelated claims that are unique to a limited partner or settlement class member
(e.g., a settlement class member slips and falls on property owned by one of the
defendants in the class and derivative litigation, loses or did not receive a
distribution check distributed to other limited partners in such partnership, or
is an employee of one of the defendants and has an employee related claim) or
(ii) any claim based upon violations of federal or state securities laws in
connection with this offer.
In addition, you will expressly waive and relinquish, to the fullest extent
permitted by law and consistent with the releases described herein, the
provisions, rights and benefits of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California
("Section 1542"), which provides:
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT
KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN ITS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE,
WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE
DEBTOR.
You will have also waived any and all provisions, rights and benefits
conferred by any law of any state or territory of the United States, or
principle of common law, that is similar, comparable or equivalent to Section
1542. You may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those
which you now know or believe to be true with respect to the subject matter of
the Released Claims, but you will be deemed to have fully, finally and forever
settled and released any and all Released Claims, known or unknown, suspected or
unsuspected, contingent or non-contingent, that now exist or heretofore have
existed upon any theory of law or equity now existing, including, but not
limited to, conduct that is negligent, intentional, with or without malice, or a
breach of any duty, law or rule, without regard to the subsequent discovery of
the existence of such different or additional facts.
You will acknowledge and agree that the releases contained in the letter of
transmittal is intended to include the Released Claims, which you may have and
which you do not know or suspect to exist in your favor against the Releasees
and that the releases contained in the letter of transmittal extinguishes those
claims. You will represent and warrant to the Releasees that you have been
advised by your attorney of the effect and import of the provisions of Section
1542, and that you have not assigned or otherwise transferred or subrogated any
interest in the Released Claims.
12
Covenant Not to Sue. By executing the letter of transmittal, you agree not
to bring any action, claim, suit or proceeding against us and those affiliates
who were defendants in the class and derivative litigation concerning any of the
matters that are the subject of the Stipulation of Settlement approved by the
Court in connection with the settlement of such class and derivative litigation,
including this Litigation Settlement Offer, other than for violations of federal
or state securities laws.
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 to 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. If we waive any of the conditions to the offer
with respect to the tender of a particular unit, we will waive such condition
with respect to all other tenders of units in this offer as well. Our
interpretation of the terms and conditions to the offer (including the letter of
transmittal) will be final and 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 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 letter of transmittal and "The Litigation
Settlement Offer -- Section 6. Certain Federal Income Tax Matters."
State and Local Withholding. If you tender any units pursuant to this
Litigation Settlement Offer, we may be required under state or local tax laws to
deduct and withhold a portion of our offer price. You should consult your tax
advisor concerning whether any state or local withholding would be required on a
disposition of your units and whether such amounts may be available to you as a
credit on your state or local tax returns.
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 letter of transmittal and "The
Litigation Settlement 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 Litigation Settlement Offer and the 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 January 13, 2004 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 this Litigation Settlement Offer. 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
13
tendered. In addition, the notice of withdrawal must be signed by the person who
signed the letter of transmittal in the same manner as the letter of transmittal
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 Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 3. Procedure 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 (but not beyond 90 business days from the date of commencement of the
offer) and thereby delay acceptance for payment of, and the payment for, 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 Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 19.
Conditions to the Offer" relating to necessary governmental approvals, 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). We will not assert
any of the conditions to the offer (other than those relating to necessary
governmental approvals) subsequent to the expiration of the offer. 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 Litigation Settlement 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
14
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 this Litigation Settlement
Offer, "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, subsequent offering periods
may be provided in tender offers for "any and all" outstanding units of a
partnership. 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 currently intend 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 "Code"), Treasury Regulations, rulings issued by the IRS, and
judicial decisions, all as of the date of this Litigation Settlement Offer. 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 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 within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code
(generally, property held for investment). No advance ruling has been or will be
sought from the IRS regarding any matter discussed in this Litigation Settlement
Offer. 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. The sale of
a unit of limited partnership interest pursuant to this offer will be a taxable
transaction for United States federal income tax purposes. You will recognize
gain or loss on a sale of a unit of limited partnership interest of your
partnership equal to the difference, if any, between (i) your "amount realized"
on the sale and (ii) your adjusted tax basis in the unit sold. The "amount
realized" with respect to a unit 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 your unit (as determined under Section 752
of the Code). Thus, your 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
15
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, and may result in a tax liability to you that
exceeds the cash received upon such sale.
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 15%. If the amount
realized with respect to a unit of limited partnership interest 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 15%) with respect to that portion of the gain attributable to
depreciation deductions previously taken on the property. Certain limitations
apply to the use of capital losses.
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 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 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
16
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.
Release and Assignment of Claims. Our offer price includes $3.31, your pro
rata share of the settlement fund, unless you request exclusion from the
settlement or the Court's order approving the settlement is reversed or vacated
by virtue of the appeal. If you request exclusion from the settlement or the
Court's order approving the settlement is reversed or vacated by virtue of the
appeal, an equivalent portion of the price paid to you may be deemed a payment
for your release and assignment of claims. The proper treatment for federal
income tax purposes of your receipt of amounts from the settlement fund or
deemed payments for your release and assignment of claims is uncertain. No
opinion or assurance can be given that the IRS will not challenge the treatment
of amounts from the settlement fund or deemed payments for your release and
assignment of claims as additional consideration for the units, and assert that
such amount should be treated as an ordinary income payment in exchange for your
release and/or assignment of current and future claims. Moreover, while the IRS
has stated that it generally will not treat attorneys' fees and costs that are
paid directly to class counsel from a settlement fund as constituting income,
profit, or gain of a member of the class (so long as the class is an opt-out
class and the class member does not have a separate contingency fee arrangement
with the class counsel), any special awards paid to claimants who actively aid
in the prosecution of a class action or who devote substantial time or expense
on behalf of a settlement class will be treated as payments for services
rendered and will be includable in that member's gross income. You should
consult your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences to you with respect to
your right to, and your receipt of, amounts from the settlement fund or deemed
payments for your release and assignment of claims, and the treatment of special
awards, attorneys' fees and costs.
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 with respect to the payment
of the offer consideration, you are generally required to provide us with your
correct taxpayer identification number. Back-up withholding is not an additional
tax. Any amounts withheld under the back-up withholding rules may be refunded or
credited against your United States federal income tax liability, if any,
provided that the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue
Service. See the instructions to the letter of transmittal.
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 Code, if we acquire an
interest held by a foreign person, we will be required to deduct and withhold
10% of the amount realized by such foreign person 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 letter of transmittal.
State and Local Withholding. If you tender any units pursuant to this
Litigation Settlement Offer, we may be required under state or local tax laws to
deduct and withhold a portion of our offer price. You should consult your tax
advisor concerning whether any state or local withholding would be required on a
disposition of your units and whether such amounts may be available to you as a
credit on your state or local tax returns.
Tax Consequences to Your Partnership of Our Offer. Section 708 of the 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 not deemed to
terminate for tax purposes, there will be no tax effect to your partnership. If
your partnership is
17
deemed to terminate for tax purposes, however, 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.
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 following our offer, 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. Elections as to tax matters previously made by the old
partnership will not be applicable to the new partnership unless the new
partnership chooses to make the same elections.
Tax Consequences to Non-Tending and Partially-Tendering Limited
Partners. As described above, if 50% or more of such interests are sold or
exchanged within a 12 month period, including as a result of our acquisition of
units, a deemed tax termination of your partnership will occur for tax purposes.
If less than 50% of the total interest in capital and profits of your
partnership are sold or exchanged within any 12 month period, there will be no
tax effect to you from the offer.
You will not recognize any gain or loss upon a deemed tax termination of
your 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 deemed tax termination will also decrease the annual depreciation
deductions (as a result of the longer partnership depreciation lives described
above) allocable to you (thereby possibly increasing the taxable income
allocable to your interests in the partnership each year).
7. EFFECTS OF THE OFFER
Because the general partner of your partnership is our affiliate, we have
control over the management of your partnership. In addition, we, together with
Cooper River Properties, L.L.C., Broad River Properties, L.L.C. and AIMCO IPLP,
L.P. (which are our affiliates), own 61,754 units, or 61.88%, 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 most 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.
If we acquire all of the units that we are seeking in the offer, our
interest in your partnership's net earnings ($16,967 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003) and net book value ($(17,477,000) as of September 30, 2003)
will increase to 100%. AIMCO-GP owns a 1% interest in AIMCO Properties, L.P. and
AIMCO, through its subsidiaries, owns an 89% interest in AIMCO Properties.
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.
18
Partnership Status. The rules regarding whether a partnership is treated
as a "publicly traded partnership" taxable as a corporation are not certain. We
believe that our purchase of units in accordance with the terms of our offer
should not adversely affect the issue of whether your partnership is classified
as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, because, taking into account
all of the facts and circumstances, the general partner of your partnership
believes that the partnership interests in your partnership should not be
treated as readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent
thereof.
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 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 property.
Effect on Trading Market; Registration Under Section 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 currently has 1,615 unitholders. The
lack of filing periodic reports could affect the already limited secondary
market which currently exists for units in your partnership and may result in
others not tendering for such units. In such a case, you would regularly have
access only to the limited information your partnership's agreement of limited
partnership requires your general partner (which is our affiliate) to provide
each year, which information consists primarily of tax information. In
particular, you will continue to receive a Schedule K-1 each year as well as
audited financial statements with respect to your partnership. A Schedule K-1 is
an information statement that contains tax information for the fiscal year of
your partnership, such as your allocation of income, deductions, credits, gains
and losses of your partnership for federal income tax purposes. In comparison,
the periodic reports filed by your partnership under the Exchange Act contain
your partnership's annual and quarterly financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These periodic reports
filed under the Exchange Act also include information regarding your
partnership's business and property and a discussion regarding your
partnership's financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, your
partnership will not be required to provide current reports on Form 8-K,
describing certain material events. See "The Litigation Settlement
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.
8. VALUATION OF UNITS
Determination of Offer Price. We determined the offer price by estimating
the net equity value of units of limited partnership interest based on our
valuation of your partnership's properties, determined using the direct
capitalization method. This method involves applying a capitalization rate to
the property
19
income. A capitalization rate is a percentage (rate of return), commonly applied
by purchasers of residential real estate to property income to determine the
present value of income property. The lower the capitalization rate utilized,
the higher the value produced, and the higher the capitalization rate utilized,
the lower the value produced. Our method for selecting a capitalization rate
generally begins with each property being assigned a location and condition
rating (e.g., "A" for excellent, "B" for good, "C" for fair, and "D" for poor).
We then adjust the capitalization rate based on whether the mortgage debt that
the property is subject to bears interest at a rate above or below prevailing
market rates and based on the amount of any prepayment penalty. Generally, the
capitalization rate would be increased if the mortgage debt bears interest at
above market rates. The evaluation of a property's location and condition, and
the determination of an appropriate capitalization rate for a property, is
subjective in nature, and others evaluating the same property might use a
different capitalization rate and derive a different property value.
Property income is the difference between the revenues from the property
and related costs and expenses, excluding income derived from sources other than
regular activities and before income deductions. Income deductions include
interest, income taxes, prior-year adjustments, charges to reserves, write-offs
of intangibles, adjustments arising from major changes in accounting methods and
other material and nonrecurrent items. In this respect, property income differs
from net income disclosed in the partnership's financial statements, which does
not exclude these income sources and deductions.
Although the direct capitalization method is a widely accepted way of
valuing real estate, there are a number of other methods available to value real
estate, each of which may result in different valuations of a property. We
relied on the direct capitalization method because we believe this is the
valuation methodology most often used by the real estate industry to value
income producing property. The court appointed independent appraiser also
utilized the direct capitalization method as one of its valuation methodologies.
However, in comparison to our methodology, the independent appraiser relied on
pro forma net operating income as opposed to the current property income of your
partnership. Currently, multifamily net operating income has been in decline
making use of higher pro forma net operating income result in increased values
compared to use of current property income. Accordingly, we believe that it is
more appropriate to rely on current property income in our valuation
methodology. We determined your partnership's value as follows:
- First, we estimated the gross value of your partnership's properties
using the direct capitalization method. We determined property income for
each of your partnership's properties for the twelve months ended
September 30, 2003, and then divided such amount by the property's
capitalization rate to derive an estimated gross property value.

- Second, we calculated the value of the equity of your partnership by
adding to the aggregate gross property value of all properties the value
of the non-real estate assets of your partnership and deducting its
liabilities, including mortgage debt and debt owed by your partnership to
the general partner or its affiliates. We deducted from these values
certain other costs, including required capital expenditures, deferred
maintenance and estimated closing costs, to derive the net equity value
of your partnership.
- Finally, we allocated 99% of this net equity value to limited partners,
which is the percentage of net proceeds that would be paid to limited
partners in the event of a liquidation of your partnership.

Comparison of Offer Price to Alternative Consideration. To assist holders
of units in evaluating the offer, your general partner, which is our affiliate,
has attempted to compare the offer price against: (a) prices at which the units
have sold on the secondary market and (b) the estimated liquidation proceeds
payable per unit, assuming a sale of properties at prices equal to appraised
values determined by the independent appraiser. 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 actual range of possible values. The results of
these comparative analyses are summarized in the chart below.

PRIOR TENDER OFFERS
2002. On June 25, 2002, we completed a tender offer commenced on May 7,
2002. We acquired 2,498 units in that offer at a price of $94.00 per unit. In
that case, we determined the offer price using the same valuation methodology
that we have used for the current offer.
2001. On March 12, 2001, we completed a tender offer commenced on February
9, 2001 We acquired 1,188 units in that offer at a price of $163.00 per unit. In
that case we determined the offer price using the same valuation methodology
that we have used for the current offer.
21
2000. On September 28, 2000, we completed a tender offer commenced on July
24, 2000 We acquired 2,977 units in that offer at a price of $165.00 per unit.
In that case, we determined the offer price using the same valuation methodology
that we have used 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 us 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 during the years
ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, 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 BASED ON INDEPENDENT APPRAISAL
Selection and Qualifications of Independent Appraiser. Under the terms of
the settlement, your partnership's property was appraised by American Appraisal
Associates, Inc. ("AAA"), an independent appraiser appointed by the court. The
information set forth below was provided to us by AAA with respect to its
appraisals.
AAA is an experienced independent valuation consulting firm with more than
50 offices on four continents. AAA provides valuation and consulting services
for the real estate industry through its specialized industry focus and operates
through a team of professionals with different economical, financial,
statistical, legal, architectural, urban and engineering knowledge and
expertise.
22
Factors Considered. AAA performed complete appraisals of all of your
partnership's properties. AAA has represented that its report was prepared in
conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice and the
Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional Practice of the
Appraisal Institute. We furnished the appraiser with all of the necessary
information requested by AAA in connection with the appraisal. The information
furnished to the appraiser was true, correct and complete in all material
respects. No limitations were imposed on AAA by us or any of our affiliates. In
preparing its valuation of your partnership property, AAA:
- inspected and analyzed the exterior of all buildings and site
improvements and a representative sample of units;
- conducted neighborhood and area research, including major employers,
demographics (population trends, number of households, and income
trends), housing trends, surrounding uses, and general economic outlook
of the area;
- conducted market research of rental inventory, historical vacancy rates,
historical average rental rates, occupancy trends, concessions, and
marketing strategies in the submarket, and occupancy rates at competing
properties;
- reviewed leasing policy, concessions and history of recent occupancy;
- reviewed the historical operating statements for your partnership's
property and an operating budget forecast for 2003;
- prepared an estimate of stabilized income and expense (for capitalization
purposes);
- conducted market inquiries into recent sales of similar properties to
ascertain sales price per unit, effective gross income multipliers and

THE ABOVE MANAGEMENT BUDGETS ARE INTERNALLY PREPARED OPERATING PROJECTIONS
FOR THE PARTNERSHIP'S PROPERTIES. A MANAGEMENT BUDGET DOES NOT REFLECT A
PROPERTY'S ACTUAL PERFORMANCE, OR CHANGES IN THE CONDITION OF A PROPERTY, IN THE
LOCAL AREA SURROUNDING A PROPERTY OR IN THE ECONOMY IN GENERAL.
Summary of Approaches and Methodologies Employed. The following summary
describes the material approaches and analyses employed by AAA in preparing the
appraisals. The partnership imposed no conditions or limitations on the scope of
AAA's investigation or the methods and procedures to be followed in preparing
the appraisal. AAA principally relied on two approaches to valuation: (1) the
sales comparison approach and (2) the income capitalization approach.
The sales comparison approach uses analysis techniques and sales of
comparable improved properties in surrounding or competing areas to derive units
of comparison that are then used to indicate a value for the subject property.
Under this approach, the primary methods of analysis used by the appraiser were:
(1) sales price per unit analysis; (2) net operating income analysis; and (3)
effective gross income analysis.
The purpose of the income capitalization approach is to value an
income-producing property by analyzing likely future income and expenses of the
property over a reasonable holding period. Under the income capitalization
approach, AAA performed: (1) a direct capitalization analysis and (2) a
discounted cash flow analysis to derive property value. The direct
capitalization analysis determines the value of a property by applying a
capitalization rate that takes into account all of the factors influencing the
value of such property to the net operating income of such property for a single
year. The direct capitalization method is normally more appropriate for
properties with relatively stable operating histories and expectations. The
discounted cash flow analysis determines the value of a property by discounting
to present value the estimated operating cash flow of such property and the
estimated proceeds of a hypothetical sale of such property at the end of an
assumed holding period. The discounted cash flow method is more appropriate for
the analysis of investment properties with multiple or long-term leases,
particularly leases with cancellation clauses or renewal options. It is
especially useful for multi-tenant properties in volatile markets.
AAA relied principally on the income capitalization approach to valuation
and secondarily on the sales comparison approach. Although the sales comparison
approach is considered a reliable method for
24
valuing property, the income capitalization approach is the primary approach
used for valuing income producing property, such as your partnership's property.
Summary of Independent Appraisals of Your Partnership's Property. AAA
performed complete appraisals of all of your partnership's properties. The
summary set forth below describes the material conclusions reached by AAA based
on the values determined under the valuation approaches and subject to the
assumptions and limitations described below. The estimated total "as is" market
value of the fee simple estate of your partnership's property is $47,900,000,
which was determined by adding the estimated values determined by AAA for each
of your partnership's properties and which is higher than our estimated total
gross valuation of $33,748,056.
DEER CREEK APARTMENTS
Valuation Under Sales Comparison Approach. AAA compared four apartment
complexes with Deer Creek Apartments that were sold between January 2001 and
June 2002 and located in the property's real estate market area. Based on its
qualitative analysis, AAA rated the locations of one comparable property as
comparable and three comparable properties as inferior to the location of Deer
Creek Apartments. AAA rated the quality/appeal of one comparable property as
superior, one comparable properties as comparable and two comparable properties
as inferior to the quality/appeal of Deer Creek Apartments. AAA rated the
amenities of one comparable property as comparable and three comparable
properties as inferior to the amenities of Deer Creek Apartments.
AAA made adjustments to the sales price per unit of each comparable
property to reflect differences from Deer Creek Apartments in location, number
of units, quality/appeal, age/condition, occupancy at sale, amenities and
average unit size. Based on the available data, AAA concluded a value range of
$73,853 to $94,587 per unit with a mean or average adjusted price of $84,608 per
unit and a median adjusted price of $84,996 per unit. Thus, the estimated value
based on a $90,000 sales price per unit for the 288 units was approximately
$25,900,000 after adjustment for and present value of concessions.
As part of the sales comparison approach, AAA also conducted a net
operating income ("NOI") analysis. NOI effectively takes into account the
various physical, location and operating aspects of the sale. AAA compared Deer
Creek Apartments' NOI to the NOI of the four comparable properties and arrived
at a percentage adjustment. After applying the percentage adjustment to the
sales price per unit of each comparable property, the range of value was between
$60,799 and $107,909 per unit, with an average of $90,546 per unit. The
appraiser concluded a value of $90,000 per unit for the 288 units of the
property, resulting in an estimated "as is" market value of $25,900,000 using
the NOI analysis after adjustment for and present value of concessions.
AAA also performed an effective gross income multiplier ("EGIM") analysis.
The EGIM measures the relationship between the sales price of a property and its
effective gross income, which is the total annual income that a property would
produce after an allowance for vacancy and credit loss. AAA estimated the
operating expense ratio ("OER") of Deer Creek Apartments to be 36.85% before
reserves, with the expense ratios of the four comparable properties ranging from
29.17% to 51.21%, resulting in EGIMs ranging from 5.96 to 8.13. Thus, AAA
concluded an EGIM of 7.50 for Deer Creek Apartments, and applied the EGIM to the
stabilized effective gross income for the property (see Income Approach section
below), resulting in a value conclusion of approximately $25,500,000 after
adjustment for present value of concessions.
AAA estimated the value using the price per unit analysis at $25,900,000,
the value using the NOI analysis at $25,900,000 and the value using the EGIM
analysis at $25,500,000. Based on these three valuation methods, AAA concluded
that the reconciled value for Deer Creek Apartments under the sales comparison
approach was $25,900,000. AAA assumed a marketing and exposure period of 6 to 12
months.
Valuation Under Income Capitalization Approach. Under the income
capitalization approach, AAA performed: (1) a direct capitalization analysis and
(2) a discounted cash flow analysis to derive a value for Deer Creek Apartments.
25
AAA first utilized a discounted cash flow method to analyze the value of
the property. Under this method, anticipated future cash flow and a reversionary
value are discounted at an appropriate rate of return to arrive at an estimate
of present value. AAA also employed a direct capitalization analysis on the
property by dividing a forecast of net operating income ("NOI") by an
appropriate capitalization rate. AAA performed a market rent analysis for the
property to derive a projected rental income. The analysis included both a
review of the subject's current asking and actual rent rates as well as a
comparison with comparable apartment properties. AAA calculated Deer Creek
Apartments' effective gross income ("EGI") by adding apartment rental
collections to other income and then making an adjustment for vacancy and
collection loss. Under this analysis, AAA arrived at an EGI of $3,408,152. Once
the EGI was established, operating expenses were deducted from the EGI in order
to arrive at an NOI for Deer Creek Apartments of approximately $2,080,272. AAA
performed a pro forma analysis of revenue and expenses for the property to
derive the subject's stabilized NOI. AAA relied on the subject's historical and
budgeted income and expenses for this estimate. AAA derived appropriate
investment criteria, including an overall capitalization rate, terminal
capitalization rate and a discount rate based upon analysis of comparable sales
and a survey of real estate investors.
The assumptions employed by AAA to determine the value of Deer Creek
Apartments under the income approach included:
(1) stabilized vacancy and collection loss rate of 5.5%;
(2) replacement reserve of $250 per unit;
(3) overall capitalization rate of 8%;
(4) terminal capitalization rate of 8.5%;
(5) discount rate of 11%;
(6) 2% cost of sale at reversion; and
(7) holding period of 10 years.
No adjustment was made for lease-up costs because the property was near or at a
stabilized condition. An adjustment was made for concessions due to soft market
conditions, and AAA estimated the present value of concessions to be $60,000.
Based on these assumptions, AAA's estimate of cash flows for a 10-year period
resulted in an indicated value of $25,900,000 through the discounted cash flow
method. The reversion value contributed approximately 44% of the value.
Under the direct capitalization method, utilizing a capitalization rate of
8%, the projected NOI resulted in a value (after rounding) of $25,900,000 after
adjustments for present value of concessions.
Using the income capitalization approach, AAA determined on an as-is basis
that the direct capitalization method and the discounted cash flow method
indicated the value for Deer Creek Apartments was $25,900,000.
Reconciliation of Values and Conclusions of Appraisal. The final step in
the appraisal process was to reconcile the sales comparison approach and the
income capitalization approach values to arrive at a final value conclusion. The
reconciliation of the two approaches involved weighing the valuation techniques
in relation to their substantiation by market and other sources of data, the
relativity and applicability of the approaches to the property type, and the
purpose of the valuation. AAA concluded that the estimated market value under
the sales comparison approach was $25,900,000 and the estimated market value
under the income capitalization approach was $25,900,000. After reconciling the
various factors, AAA determined that the most appropriate technique for
estimating the value of income-producing property was an approach based
primarily on income, and thus arrived at a final "as is" market value for Deer
Creek Apartments of $25,900,000 as of June 3, 2003.
26
GEORGETOWN
Valuation Under Sales Comparison Approach. AAA compared five apartment
complexes with Georgetown that were sold between January 1998 and January 2003
and located in the property's real estate market area. Based on its qualitative
analysis, AAA rated the locations of two comparable properties as superior and
three comparable properties as comparable to the location of Georgetown. AAA
rated the quality/appeal of all five comparable properties as comparable to the
quality/appeal of Georgetown. AAA rated the amenities of two comparable
properties as comparable and three comparable properties as inferior to the
amenities of Georgetown.
AAA made adjustments to the sales price per unit of each comparable
property to reflect differences from Georgetown in location, number of units,
quality/appeal, age/condition, occupancy at sale, amenities and average unit
size. Based on the available data, AAA concluded a value range of $44,667 to
$50,000 per unit with a mean or average adjusted price of $47,649 per unit and a
median adjusted price of $48,650 per unit. Thus, the estimated value based on a
$49,000 sales price per unit for the 200 units was approximately $9,700,000
after adjustment for present value of concessions.
As part of the sales comparison approach, AAA also conducted a net
operating income ("NOI") analysis. NOI effectively takes into account the
various physical, location and operating aspects of the sale. AAA compared
Georgetown's NOI to the NOI of the five comparable properties and arrived at a
percentage adjustment. After applying the percentage adjustment to the sales
price per unit of each comparable property, the range of value was between
$41,441 and $55,137 per unit, with an average of $46,511 per unit. The appraiser
concluded a value of $50,000 per unit for the 200 units of the property,
resulting in an estimated "as is" market value of $9,900,000 using the NOI
analysis after adjustment for present value of concessions.
AAA also performed an effective gross income multiplier ("EGIM") analysis.
The EGIM measures the relationship between the sales price of a property and its
effective gross income, which is the total annual income that a property would
produce after an allowance for vacancy and credit loss. AAA estimated the
operating expense ratio ("OER") of Georgetown to be 41.00% before reserves, with
the expense ratios of the five comparable properties ranging from 44.90% to
51.85%, resulting in EGIMs ranging from 4.62 to 6.02. Thus, AAA concluded an
EGIM of 6.0 for Georgetown, and applied the EGIM to the stabilized effective
gross income for the property (see Income Approach section below), resulting in
a value conclusion of approximately $9,700,000 after adjustment for present
value of concessions.
AAA estimated the value using the price per unit analysis at $9,700,000,
the value using the NOI analysis at $9,900,000 and the value using the EGIM
analysis at $9,700,000. Based on these three valuation methods, AAA concluded
that the reconciled value for Georgetown under the sales comparison approach was
$9,800,000. AAA assumed a marketing and exposure period of 6 to 12 months.
Valuation Under Income Capitalization Approach. Under the income
capitalization approach, AAA performed: (1) a direct capitalization analysis and
(2) a discounted cash flow analysis to derive a value for Georgetown.
AAA first utilized a discounted cash flow method to analyze the value of
the property. Under this method, anticipated future cash flow and a reversionary
value are discounted at an appropriate rate of return to arrive at an estimate
of present value. AAA also employed a direct capitalization analysis on the
property by dividing a forecast of net operating income ("NOI") by an
appropriate capitalization rate. AAA performed a market rent analysis for the
property to derive a projected rental income. The analysis included both a
review of the subject's current asking and actual rent rates as well as a
comparison with comparable apartment properties. AAA calculated Georgetown 's
effective gross income ("EGI") by adding apartment rental collections to other
income and then making an adjustment for vacancy and collection loss. Under this
analysis, AAA arrived at an EGI of $1,621,178. Once the EGI was established,
operating expenses were deducted from the EGI in order to arrive at an NOI for
Georgetown of approximately $896,489. AAA performed a pro forma analysis of
revenue and expenses for the property to derive the subject's stabilized NOI.
AAA relied on the subject's historical and budgeted income and
27
expenses for this estimate. AAA derived appropriate investment criteria,
including an overall capitalization rate, terminal capitalization rate and a
discount rate based upon analysis of comparable sales and a survey of real
estate investors.
The assumptions employed by AAA to determine the value of Georgetown under
the income approach included:
(1) stabilized vacancy and collection loss rate of 7%;
(2) replacement reserve of $300 per unit;
(3) overall capitalization rate of 9.00%;
(4) terminal capitalization rate of 9.50%;
(5) discount rate of 11.50%;
(6) 2% cost of sale at reversion; and
(7) holding period of 10 years.
No adjustment was made for lease-up costs because the property was near or at a
stabilized condition. An adjustment was made for concessions due to soft market
conditions, and AAA estimated the present value of concessions to be $57,000.
Based on these assumptions, AAA's estimate of cash flows for a 10-year period
resulted in an indicated value of $10,300,000 through the discounted cash flow
method. The reversion value contributed approximately 41% of the value.
Under the direct capitalization method, utilizing a capitalization rate of
9.0%, the projected NOI resulted in a value (after rounding) of $9,900,000 after
adjustments for present value of concessions, if any.
Using the income capitalization approach, AAA determined on an as-is basis
that the direct capitalization method and the discounted cash flow method
indicated the value for Georgetown was $10,100,000.
Reconciliation of Values and Conclusions of Appraisal. The final step in
the appraisal process was to reconcile the sales comparison approach and the
income capitalization approach values to arrive at a final value conclusion. The
reconciliation of the two approaches involved weighing the valuation techniques
in relation to their substantiation by market and other sources of data, the
relativity and applicability of the approaches to the property type, and the
purpose of the valuation. AAA concluded that the estimated market value under
the sales comparison approach was $9,800,000 and the estimated market value
under the income capitalization approach was $10,100,000. After reconciling the
various factors, AAA determined a final "as is" market value for Georgetown of
$10,000,000 as of May 9, 2003.
THE LANDMARK
Valuation Under Sales Comparison Approach. AAA compared five apartment
complexes with The Landmark that were sold between November 2000 and November
2001 and located in the property's real estate market area. Based on its
qualitative analysis, AAA rated the locations of four comparable properties as
superior and one comparable property as comparable to the location of The
Landmark. AAA rated the quality/appeal of four comparable properties as superior
and one comparable properties as comparable to the quality/appeal of The
Landmark. AAA rated the amenities of all five comparable properties as
comparable to the amenities of The Landmark.
AAA made adjustments to the sales price per unit of each comparable
property to reflect differences from The Landmark in location, number of units,
quality/appeal, age/condition, occupancy at sale, amenities and average unit
size. Based on the available data, AAA concluded a value range of $39,796 to
$47,986 per unit with a mean or average adjusted price of $43,178 per unit and a
median adjusted price of $42,424 per unit. Thus, the estimated value based on a
$42,000 sales price per unit for the 292 units was approximately $12,200,000
after adjustment for present value of concessions.
28
As part of the sales comparison approach, AAA also conducted a net
operating income ("NOI") analysis. NOI effectively takes into account the
various physical, location and operating aspects of the sale. AAA compared The
Landmark 's NOI to the NOI of the five comparable properties and arrived at a
percentage adjustment. After applying the percentage adjustment to the sales
price per unit of each comparable property, the range of value was between
$42,482 and $48,322 per unit, with an average of $45,716 per unit. The appraiser
concluded a value of $42,000 per unit for the 292 units of the property,
resulting in an estimated "as is" market value of $12,200,000 using the NOI
analysis after adjustment for present value of concessions.
AAA also performed an effective gross income multiplier ("EGIM") analysis.
The EGIM measures the relationship between the sales price of a property and its
effective gross income, which is the total annual income that a property would
produce after an allowance for vacancy and credit loss. AAA estimated the
operating expense ratio ("OER") of The Landmark to be 44.87% before reserves,
with the expense ratios of the five comparable properties ranging from 38.00% to
45.00%, resulting in EGIMs ranging from 6.08 to 7.47. Thus, AAA concluded an
EGIM of 5.50 for The Landmark, and applied the EGIM to the stabilized effective
gross income for the property (see Income Approach section below), resulting in
a value conclusion of approximately $12,300,000 after adjustment for and present
value of concessions.
AAA estimated the value using the price per unit analysis at $12,200,000,
the value using the NOI analysis at $12,200,000 and the value using the EGIM
analysis at $12,300,000. Based on these three valuation methods, AAA concluded
that the reconciled value for The Landmark under the sales comparison approach
was $12,200,000. AAA assumed a marketing and exposure period of 6 to 12 months.
Valuation Under Income Capitalization Approach. Under the income
capitalization approach, AAA performed: (1) a direct capitalization analysis and
(2) a discounted cash flow analysis to derive a value for The Landmark.
AAA first utilized a discounted cash flow method to analyze the value of
the property. Under this method, anticipated future cash flow and a reversionary
value are discounted at an appropriate rate of return to arrive at an estimate
of present value. AAA also employed a direct capitalization analysis on the
property by dividing a forecast of net operating income ("NOI") by an
appropriate capitalization rate. AAA performed a market rent analysis for the
property to derive a projected rental income. The analysis included both a
review of the subject's current asking and actual rent rates as well as a
comparison with comparable apartment properties. AAA calculated The Landmark's
effective gross income ("EGI") by adding apartment rental collections to other
income and then making an adjustment for vacancy and collection loss. Under this
analysis, AAA arrived at an EGI of $2,255,642. Once the EGI was established,
operating expenses were deducted from the EGI in order to arrive at an NOI for
The Landmark of approximately $1,170,500. AAA performed a pro forma analysis of
revenue and expenses for the property to derive the subject's stabilized NOI.
AAA relied on the subject's historical and budgeted income and expenses for this
estimate. AAA derived appropriate investment criteria, including an overall
capitalization rate, terminal capitalization rate and a discount rate based upon
analysis of comparable sales and a survey of real estate investors.
The assumptions employed by AAA to determine the value of The Landmark
under the income approach included:
(1) stabilized vacancy and collection loss rate of 10%;
(2) replacement reserve of $250 per unit;
(3) overall capitalization rate of 9.5%;
(4) terminal capitalization rate of 10.00%;
(5) discount rate of 11.5%;
29
(6) 3.00% cost of sale at reversion; and
(7) holding period of 10 years.
No adjustment was made for lease-up costs because the property was near or at a
stabilized condition. An adjustment was made for concessions due to soft market
conditions, and AAA estimated the present value of concessions to be $63,000.
Based on these assumptions, AAA's estimate of cash flows for a 10-year period
resulted in an indicated value of $12,000,000 through the discounted cash flow
method. The reversion value contributed approximately 39% of the value.
Under the direct capitalization method, utilizing a capitalization rate of
9.5%, the projected NOI resulted in a value (after rounding) of $12,300,000
after adjustments for present value of concessions.
Using the income capitalization approach, AAA determined on an as-is basis
that the direct capitalization method and the discounted cash flow method
indicated the value for The Landmark was $12,000,000.
Reconciliation of Values and Conclusions of Appraisal. The final step in
the appraisal process was to reconcile the sales comparison approach and the
income capitalization approach values to arrive at a final value conclusion. The
reconciliation of the two approaches involved weighing the valuation techniques
in relation to their substantiation by market and other sources of data, the
relativity and applicability of the approaches to the property type, and the
purpose of the valuation. AAA concluded that the estimated market value under
the sales comparison approach was $12,200,000 and the estimated market value
under the income capitalization approach was $12,000,000. After reconciling the
various factors, AAA determined a final "as is" market value for The Landmark of
$12,000,000 as of May 13, 2003.
Assumptions, Limitations and Qualifications of AAA'S Valuation. In
preparing the appraisal, AAA relied, without independent verification, on the
accuracy and completeness of all information supplied or otherwise made
available to it by or on behalf of the partnership. In arriving at the

9. THE LAWSUIT AND THE SETTLEMENT
BACKGROUND
In March 1998, holders of limited partnership units in the partnerships
managed by affiliates of Insignia Financial Group (collectively, "Insignia")
commenced an action entitled Rosalie Nuanes, et al. v. Insignia Financial Group,
Inc., et al. (the "Nuanes action") in the Superior Court of the State of
California for the County of San Mateo (the "Court"). The plaintiffs named as
defendants, among others, your partnership, its general partner and several of
their affiliated partnerships and corporate entities, as well as AIMCO, who had
announced a merger with Insignia. The action originally asserted claims on
behalf of a putative class of limited partners in over 50 limited partnerships,
including your partnership (collectively, the "Partnerships") and derivatively
on behalf of those same Partnerships (which are named as nominal defendants)
challenging, among other things, the acquisition of interests in certain general
partner entities by Insignia; past tender offers by Insignia to acquire limited
partnership units; Insignia's management of the Partnerships; and the series of
transactions which closed on October 1, 1998 and
31
February 26, 1999 whereby Insignia and Insignia Properties Trust, respectively,
were merged into AIMCO (hereinafter, the "Insignia Merger").
PROCEDURAL HISTORY
On June 25, 1998, your general partner filed a motion seeking dismissal of
the action. In lieu of responding to the motion, the plaintiffs filed an amended
complaint. The general partner filed demurrers to the amended complaint which
were heard in February 1999. Pending the ruling on such demurrers, settlement
negotiations commenced. On November 2, 1999, the parties executed and filed a
Stipulation of Settlement, settling claims, subject to court approval, on behalf
of your partnership and all limited partners who owned units as of November 3,
1999. Preliminary approval of the settlement was obtained on November 3, 1999
from the Court, at which time the Court set a final approval hearing for
December 10, 1999. Prior to the December 10, 1999 hearing, the Court received
various objections to the settlement, including a challenge to the Court's
preliminary approval based upon the alleged lack of authority of prior lead
counsel to enter the settlement.
On December 14, 1999, the general partner and its affiliates terminated the
proposed settlement. In February 2000, counsel for some of the named plaintiffs
filed a motion to disqualify plaintiffs' lead and liaison counsel who negotiated
the proposed settlement on behalf of plaintiffs. On June 27, 2000, the Court
entered an order disqualifying them from the case. An appeal was taken from part
of the June 27, 2000 order on October 5, 2000. Subsequently, certain plaintiffs,
specifically, BEJ Equity Partners and J-B Investment Partners, withdrew as
plaintiffs.
On December 4, 2000, the Court appointed the law firm of Lieff Cabraser
Heimann & Bernstein LLP as new lead counsel for plaintiffs and the putative
class. Plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint on January 19, 2001 and the
general partner and its affiliates filed a demurrer to the third amended
complaint. On July 10, 2001, the Court issued an order granting in part and
denying in part defendants' demurrer. Among other things, the Court sustained
defendants' demurrer without leave to amend as to those derivative claims
involving partnerships in which the named plaintiffs did not own an interest.
The Court subsequently denied plaintiffs' motion for reconsideration.
The fourth amended complaint was filed on September 7, 2001. It was brought
by plaintiffs who owned interests in four of the Partnerships. Plaintiffs
Jeffrey Homburger, Sean O'Reilly and Norman and Doris Rosenberg formally
withdrew from the case on August 20, 2001. The general partner and affiliated
defendants filed a demurrer to the fourth amended complaint, which the Court
granted in part on January 28, 2002. The Court dismissed without leave to amend
plaintiffs' state securities fraud claim under California's Corporate Code
Section 25400(b), plaintiffs' contract claim arising out of the partnership
agreements, plaintiffs' derivative claim for statutory unfair competition as to
those partnerships in which plaintiffs lack representation, plaintiffs'
conversion claim and plaintiffs' claim under California's Corporation Code
Section 15636.
Only some of the remaining claims in the fourth amended complaint relate to
the partnership. Plaintiffs alleged that affiliates of the general partner have
issued false and misleading tender offers beginning in 1998 and continuing
through to the present for units in the partnership. Plaintiffs allege
violations of state securities fraud statutes and common law fraud against both
AIMCO and Insignia. Specifically, plaintiffs allege that the tender offers have
been misleading because they failed to disclose:
- that third parties would not use a property's historical income, but
would instead use a property's projected income, in calculating a
property's value based on the capitalization method.
- that the property income figures used in the capitalization method were
artificially lower because AIMCO charges management fees allegedly in
excess of the market.
- that AIMCO allegedly deducted all capital expenditures from property
income despite an alleged AIMCO policy of deducting only $250 to $300 per
apartment unit.
32
- the rating for the condition of each property, any adjustment made to the
capitalization rate as a result, the interest rate on mortgage debt for
each property and any corresponding adjustments in the capitalization
rates.
- that AIMCO allegedly negotiated lower capitalization rates for valuing
properties it owns in connection with a revolving credit facility.
- that AIMCO failed to disclose that the valuation methods and/or policies
it used for its own business purposes allegedly differ from those used in
the tender offers.
- internal valuations of the properties it used in connection with the
Insignia merger or the capitalization rates used in connection with those
valuations.
Plaintiffs alleged that the general partner breached its fiduciary duty by
assisting Insignia and AIMCO in making the tender offers by providing financial
information, failing to correct supposedly misleading information given to
unitholders, recommending that the prices offered were fair and preventing third
parties from making tender offers. Plaintiffs have also included a statutory
unfair competition claim against all the defendants, a claim for tortious
interference with contract, unjust enrichment and judicial dissolution.
THE HELLER COMPLAINT
During the third quarter of 2001, a complaint was filed against the same
defendants that are named in the Nuanes action, captioned Heller v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. (the "Heller action"). The Heller complaint was
filed in order to preserve derivative claims that were dismissed without leave
to amend in the Nuanes action by the Court's July 10, 2001 order. The first
amended complaint in the Heller action was brought as a purported derivative
action, and asserted claims for, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty;
unfair competition; conversion, unjust enrichment; and judicial dissolution. On
January 28, 2002, however, the Court, on motion by the general partner and its
affiliates, struck the Heller complaint as a violation of its July 10, 2001
order in the Nuanes action. On March 27, 2002, plaintiffs in the Heller action
filed a notice of appeal of the Court's January 28, 2002 order striking the
complaint.
THE SETTLEMENT OF THE NUANES AND HELLER COMPLAINTS
On December 20, 2002, the parties to the above-entitled litigation executed
a Stipulation of Settlement of the two actions. That settlement was the result
of over one year of negotiations and the involvement of two separate settlement
judges. Class counsel and defendants' counsel first met with the Honorable
William J. Cahill, Retired California Superior Court Judge, on two separate
occasions. Counsel also met on four separate occasions with the Honorable
Margaret J. Kemp, California Superior Court Judge, before reaching a settlement
in principle. The parties initially met with Judge Cahill on two occasions in
the fall of 2000, but were ultimately unsuccessful in reaching a definitive
settlement agreement. At the Court's direction, they renewed formal settlement
discussions before Judge Kemp. The parties first attended a settlement
conference before Judge Kemp in September or October 2002 and then subsequently
met with her on October 28, 2002, November 26, 2002 and December 2, 2002. The
parties reached final agreement on the material terms of the settlement at the
last settlement conference with Judge Kemp on December 2, 2002 and put the terms
of that agreement on the record in open court.
In each of the conferences described above, counsel from Lieff Cabraser
Heimann & Bernstein LLP, Farella Braun & Martel LLP & Berman Devalerio Pease &
Tobacco attended on behalf of the named plaintiffs and the putative settlement
class; counsel from Skadden Arps Slate Meagher & Flom LLP attended on behalf of
AIMCO and its affiliated entities, including your general partner, and Orrick
Herrington & Sutcliffe attended on behalf of the remaining defendants. AIMCO
Executive Vice President Patrick Foye also attended each of these meetings. Mr.
Vincent Gresham of the Law Offices of Vincent Gresham also participated on
behalf of plaintiffs and the putative settlement class in those settlement
discussions before the Hon. Cahill, Retired. At these meetings, discussions
included possible transactions that could provide liquidity to investors and
form the basis of a settlement, the use of a settlement fund
33
and the amount of such fund, the timing and distribution of any settlement fund,
selection and use of an appraiser and disclosures that would accompany any
contemplated transaction(s). The participants considered but ultimately rejected
a merger or roll-up of the various partnerships as possible alternatives to cash
tender offers. The parties ultimately concluded, however, that a merger or
roll-up could be potentially complicated and time consuming and that a cash
tender offer would be a less coercive form of providing liquidity to those
investors who desired it.
The Settlement Agreement requires each tender offer to attach executive
summaries of partnership property appraisals commissioned specifically for the
settlement tender offers and to provide an explanation of how the appraised
values of the properties compare to the per Unit price(s) being offered. It also
requires the payment of an allocable portion of the settlement fund for each
unit tendered pursuant to the settlement fund, details the scope of the release
and covenants not to sue which will bind class members, requires that tender
offers be made no more than one year after final approval of the settlement and
imposes certain restrictions on the length of time in which the tender offers
can remain open, as well as with regard to other disclosures made therein. On
April 4, 2003, the Court preliminarily approved the settlement and, on June 13,
2003, entered an order finally approving the settlement and dismissing both the
Heller and Nuanes litigation with prejudice. On August 12, 2003, an objector
filed an appeal of the court's order approving the settlement and is seeking to
reverse or vacate the Court's order and the judgment entered thereto. Although
we reserve our right to terminate or amend our offer if final court approval of
the settlement is reversed or vacated, we have nevertheless elected to proceed
with this offer under the terms of the settlement. On November 24, 2003, the
objector appealing the settlement and judgment entered thereto filed an
application requesting the Court order AIMCO to withdraw the settlement tender
offers, refrain from making further offers pending the appeal and auction any
units tendered to third parties. The objector contends that this offer does not
conform with the terms of the Settlement. Alternatively, counsel for the
objector has requested the Court on behalf of a settlement class member order
AIMCO to pay all non-tendering settlement class members their pro rata share of
the Settlement Fund whether or not the settlement and judgment entered thereto
is vacated on appeal and to notify settlement class members that the releases
and covenant not to sue are not binding unless the settlement and judgment
entered thereto is affirmed on appeal. AIMCO asserts that such applications are
without merit and is opposing such applications.
Under the terms of the settlement, we have agreed to make cash tender
offers for all outstanding limited partnership interests in your partnership and
43 other partnerships (the "Tender Offer Partnerships") within a year of the
Court's final approval of the settlement and to accompany each of those offers
with executive summaries of appraisals of partnership properties prepared by an
independent appraiser appointed by the Court. Our affiliate has agreed to pay
50% of the costs of the appraisals, with the other 50% to be paid from the
settlement fund. The appraiser was paid $619,100 for the appraisals. To the
extent the costs of the appraisals exceeded $2 million, the excess amount would
have been paid from the settlement fund. Under the settlement, have the option
of making a second round of tender offers (in our sole and absolute discretion)
to purchase all remaining outstanding limited partnership interests, at the same
price, or at a higher or lower price, within 18 months of the order finally
approving the settlement.
In addition, as part of the settlement, we agreed to create a settlement
fund for the benefit of settlement class members in the principal amount of $9.9
million. The settlement class members consists of all limited partners in the
Tender Offer Partnerships, including your partnership, who owned units as of
December 20, 2002, and who did not validly request exclusion from the
settlement. After deducting attorneys' fees and other settlement costs,
including a portion of the costs of appraisal and certain costs of
administration of the settlement fund, we have allocated the remaining amount in
the settlement fund
34
among the Tender Offer Partnerships pro rata based on partnership revenue for
the year ended December 31, 2002 allocable to units held by members of the
settlement class, as set forth below:

(1) For the year ended December 31, 2002.
(2) Excludes units owned by AIMCO and its affiliates and other limited partners
who have requested exclusion from the settlement class.
(3) Determined, for each partnership, by multiplying the amount of revenue
(column (B)) by the percentage of outstanding units held by members of the
settlement class (column (C)).
(4) Determined, for each partnership, by dividing the amount of adjusted revenue
(column (D)) by the total amount of adjusted revenue for all partnerships.
The amount allocated to a Tender Offer Partnership is then divided by the
total number of outstanding units owned by settlement class members in such
Tender Offer Partnership (excluding units held by us and our affiliates), and
the resulting amount is included in the offer price for units in that Tender
Offer Partnership. For each unit validly tendered in the offers and accepted by
us, an amount equal to the portion of the settlement fund included in the per
unit offer price will be deducted from the settlement fund and paid to us (other
than units tendered by limited partners who have requested exclusion from the
settlement class). All limited partners who tender their units in response to
the offers will receive the same price per unit, including those persons who may
have requested exclusion from the settlement class.
If we choose to make a second round of litigation settlement offers, as
described above, any amount remaining in the settlement fund will be allocated
in the manner described above the first round of litigation settlement offers
but calculated using revenue for the most recent 12-month period and more recent
information as to the ownership of each partnership. Any balance remaining
thereafter or, in the event we do not initiate a second round of litigation
settlement offers, the entire balance will be paid to settlement class members
who have retained any units based on the allocation method used in the
litigation settlement offers no later than June 2005 if the Court's order
approving the settlement and entering judgment thereto is affirmed on appeal. If
the Court's order is reversed or vacated by virtue of the appeal, however, you
will not be entitled to receive a pro rata share of the settlement fund unless
you tender your units in this offer. The general partners of the Tender Offer
Partnerships have also agreed, as part of the settlement, to waive our right to
seek reimbursement and/or indemnification for the full amount of fees and costs
incurred in the defense of the class and derivative litigation; provided,
however, that they may charge fees and costs to your partnership and the other
partnerships involved in the litigation in an amount not to exceed $1,500,000
(which is approximately 50% of the outstanding fees and costs).
In consideration for the terms described above, plaintiffs and settlement
class members agreed, among other things, to dismiss the Nuanes action and the
Heller action with prejudice, release the defendants from all liability with
respect to all claims and causes of action, whether brought individually, on
behalf of a class, or derivatively, whether known or unknown, that have been
asserted or that could have been asserted that arise out of or relate to (i)
those matters and claims set forth in the complaints in the Heller and Nuanes
actions, (ii) ownership of one or more units in any of the Tender Offer
Partnerships, (iii) the purchase, acquisition, holding, sale, tender or voting
of one or more units in any of the Tender Offer Partnerships, and (iv) any of
the facts, circumstances, allegations, claims, causes of action,
representations, statements, reports, disclosures, transactions, events,
occurrences, acts, omissions or failures to act, of whatever kind or character
whatsoever, irrespective of the state of mind of the actor performing or
36
omitting to perform the same, that have been or could have been alleged in any
pleadings, amended pleading, argument, complaint, amended complaint, brief,
motion, report or filing in either the Nuanes action or the Heller action,
provided, however, that the released claims are not intended to include any
unrelated claims that are unique to a particular settlement class member (e.g.,
a settlement class member slips and falls on property owned by one of our
affiliates, loses or did not receive a distribution check distributed to other
limited partners in your partnership, or is an employee and has an employee
related claim). Settlement class members also covenanted and agreed not to bring
any action, claim, suit, or proceeding against any of the defendants in the
class and derivative litigation that concerns any of the matters which are the
subject of the settlement and that the stipulation of settlement will act as a
bar to any such claim, action, suit or proceeding. The plaintiffs and settlement
class members also agreed that they would not oppose a request that the Court
withdraw the finding regarding Robert A. Stanger & Co. made in the June 27, 2000
order disqualifying lead and liaison counsel.
Under the terms of the settlement, neither we nor our affiliates admit to
any wrongdoing, and we deny liability under all claims brought in the
litigation. The final settlement of the lawsuit is the product of good faith,
arm's length negotiations between settlement class counsel and counsel for the
defendants. These negotiations resulted in the settlement set forth in the
Stipulation.

(1) Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2001 and 2000 amounts to
conform with the 2002 presentation. These reclassifications represent
certain eliminations of self-charged management fee income and expenses and
related receivables and payables in accordance with consolidation accounting
principles, as well as discontinued operations resulting from the adoption
of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144. Effective January 1,
2001, we began consolidating our previously unconsolidated subsidiaries.
Prior to this date, we had significant influence but did not have control.
Accordingly, such investments were accounted for under the equity method.
(2) Effective July 1, 2001 for certain assets and October 1, 2001 for the
majority of the portfolio, we extended the estimated useful lives of our
buildings and improvements from a weighted average composite life of 25
years to a weighted average composite life of 30 years. This change
increased net income by approximately $36 million or $0.42 per diluted unit
in 2001.
(3) Our management believes that the presentation of funds from operations or
"FFO", when considered with the financial date 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 us, 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 extraordinary items and disposals from
discontinued operations, net of related income taxes, plus real estate
related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of financing
costs), including depreciation for unconsolidated partnership, joint
ventures and discontinued operations. We calculate FFO based on the NAREIT
definition, plus amortization of intangibles, plus distributions to minority
partners in excess of income, and less dividends on preferred units. We
calculate FFO (diluted) by adding back the interest expenses and preferred
distribution relating to
39
convertible securities whose conversion is dilutive to FFO. Our management
believes that the presentation of FFO provides investors with
industry-accepted measurements which help facilitate an understanding of our
ability to make required dividend payments, capital expenditures and
principal payments on our debt. There can be no assurance that our basis of
computing FFO is comparable with that of other REITs.
The following is a reconciliation of net income to funds from operations:

11. BACKGROUND AND REASONS FOR THE OFFER
Settlement of Class Action. We are making this offer pursuant to the terms
of the settlement agreement described in " The Litigation Settlement
Offer -- Section 9. The Lawsuit and the Settlement." 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. The settlement agreement also provides for the creation of a
$9.9 million fund for members of the settlement class, a portion of which will
be paid to those who accept this offer and is included in our offer price. If
you request exclusion from the settlement, you may tender any units in this
offer and you will be entitled to receive the same price per unit as those
unitholders who have not opted out of the settlement class. However, no portion
of the price paid to you will come from the settlement fund. If you do not
request exclusion from the settlement and do not tender any units in this offer,
you will be entitled to receive your pro rata share of the settlement fund
(subject to adjustment) no later than June 2005 if the Court's order approving
the settlement and entering judgment thereto is affirmed on appeal. If the
Court's order is reversed or vacated by virtue of the appeal, however, you will
not be entitled to receive a pro rata share of the settlement fund unless you
tender your units in this offer.
40
Neither the Court nor counsel for the parties in the class and derivative
litigation make any recommendation regarding whether you should accept our
offer. You are encouraged to carefully review this Litigation Settlement Offer,
the executive summary of the independent appraiser's report (attached as Annex
II) and any other information available to you and to seek advice from your
independent lawyer, tax advisor and/or financial advisor before deciding whether
or not to accept our offer.
Alternatives Considered by Your General Partner. From time to time in the
past, we have made offers to acquire units of limited partnership interest in
your partnership. Before making this offer and the previous offers, your general
partner (which is our affiliate) 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).
If your partnership was liquidated, and the properties sold at prices equal
to the values recently determined by the independent appraiser (see Annex II),
we estimate that your net liquidation proceeds would be $217.71 per unit. See
"The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 8. Valuation of Units." However, a
liquidating sale of all of your partnership's property would be a taxable event
for all partners, including your general partner. Furthermore, all partners,
including those who wish to retain their units, and your general partner would
be forced to participate in the liquidation. Lastly, although the future
operating results of your partnership and future sales prices of the property
owned by your partnership are uncertain, the operating performance of your
partnership's property may improve in the future, which, in turn, may result in
higher property values, making a sale of your partnership's properties a more
attractive option in the future. Such values are also a function of
capitalization rates in the market and the interest rate environment at the
time. However, because your general partner and property manager (which are our
affiliates) receive fees for managing your partnership and its property, a
conflict of interest exists between continuing the partnership and receiving
such fees, on the one hand, and the liquidation of the partnership and the
termination of such fees, on the other. See "The Litigation Settlement
Offer -- Section 15. Certain Information Concerning Your
Partnership -- Investment Objectives and Policies; Sale or Financing of
Investments" and "-- Section 13. Conflicts of Interest and Transactions with
Affiliates." The term of the partnership will continue until December 31, 2037,
unless the partnership is terminated sooner under the provisions of the
partnership agreement.
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 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.
41
The primary disadvantage of continuing the operations of your partnership
without our offer 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 might
be at a price less than our offer price.
Alternative Transactions Considered by Us. At the present time, we have
decided to proceed with this offer pursuant to the court approved settlement.
From time to time in the past, we have considered proposing a number of
alternative transactions, including the purchase of your partnership's property
or a merger of your partnership in which you would receive cash in exchange for
your units. We decided not to pursue these alternative transactions because, in
each case, we determined that a tender offer would be a less expensive means of
acquiring additional interests in your partnership, and would not require the
consent or approval of any limited partners (other than those who elect to
tender their units). In the future, however, we may consider purchasing your
partnership's property or effecting such a merger. See "The Litigation
Settlement Offer -- Section 14. Future Plans of the Purchaser." We also
considered an offer to exchange units in your partnership for limited
partnership interests in 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 when
we have offered limited partners an opportunity to receive cash or limited
partnership interests in AIMCO Properties, L.P., the limited partners who tender
usually prefer the cash option.
12. 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
affiliate) have provided the following information for inclusion in this
Litigation Settlement Offer:
Factors in Favor of Fairness Determination. The general partner of your
partnership believes the offer price and the structure of the transaction are
fair to the unaffiliated limited partners. In support of such determination, the
general partner considered the factors and information set forth below, but did
not quantify or otherwise attach particular weight to any such factors or
information:
- the Court's approval of the settlement pursuant to which the offer is
being made;
- the fact that the interests of the unaffiliated limited partners were
represented by counsel in the negotiation of the settlement agreement;
- the method we used to determine our offer price is a method commonly
relied upon by investors to value income producing property;
- the offer is structured so that approval of a majority of unaffiliated
limited partners is not required -- each limited partner has an
opportunity to make an individual decision on whether to tender his or
her units (and how many to tender) or to continue to hold them;
- there is no established trading market for the limited partnership units,
and the offer would provide immediate liquidity for tendering limited
partners;
- the uncertainty of the resulting proceeds from the possible alternative
transactions, particularly a property sale or a liquidation of the
partnership,
- the fact that no unaffiliated limited partners would be able to
participate in the future performance of the partnership following such
alternative transactions;
- the offer price exceeds the book value per unit of $(175.11) at September
30, 2003;
- the fact that our offer price does not reflect any discount for minority
interests; and
- the absence of any other firm offers by third parties for all or
substantially all of the partnership's assets, a merger or other
extraordinary transaction during the past two years with which to compare
the Litigation Settlement Offer.
42
Factors Not in Favor of Fairness Determination. In addition to the
foregoing factors, the general partner considered the following countervailing
factors:
- the recent valuation of your partnership's property by American Appraisal
Associates, Inc., an independent appraiser appointed by the Court, which
results in an estimate of net liquidation proceeds per unit of $217.71,
which is higher than our offer price of $83.27;
- the fact that an unaffiliated representative was not retained to act
solely on behalf of unaffiliated limited partners for purposes of
negotiating the terms of the offer;
- the fact that the general partner's board of directors is comprised
solely of an employee of AIMCO Properties, L.P., and, as a result, the
terms of the offer were not approved by a majority of independent
directors;
- the fact that offer prices in our prior tender offers were higher than
our current offer price; and
- prices at which the units have recently sold were higher than our current
offer price.
The general partner believes that consideration of the offer was
procedurally fair because, among other things, (1) the Court approved the
settlement agreement pursuant to which the offer is being made, (2) each limited
partner has an opportunity to make an individual decision on whether to tender
his or her units (and how many to tender) or to continue to hold them, (3) the
unaffiliated limited partners were represented by counsel in the negotiation of
the settlement agreement, and (4) limited partners can evaluate our offer price
by comparing it to the net liquidation proceeds per unit derived from the
independent appraiser's property valuation. In making this determination, the
general partner took into account the absence of the following procedural
safeguards: (1) the requirement of approval of the offer by a majority of the
unaffiliated limited partners, (2) an unaffiliated representative to act solely
on behalf of unaffiliated limited partners for purposes of negotiating the terms
of the offer, and (3) the approval of the offer by a majority of non-employee
directors of your general partner's board of directors.
The general partner makes no recommendation as to whether or not you should
tender or refrain from tendering your units in this offer. While the general
partner believes that the terms of our offer are fair, the general partner also
believes that you must make your own decision whether or not to participate in
any offer. The general partner is unable to make a recommendation because each
limited partner's circumstances may differ from those of other limited partners.
These circumstances, which would impact the desirability of tendering units in
the offer, include a limited partner's financial position, his need or desire
for liquidity, other financial opportunities available to him, and his tax
position and the tax consequences to him of selling his units. YOU ARE
ENCOURAGED TO CAREFULLY REVIEW THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER, THE EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY OF THE INDEPENDENT APPRAISER'S REPORT (ATTACHED AS ANNEX II) AND ANY
OTHER INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO YOU AND TO SEEK ADVICE FROM YOUR INDEPENDENT
LAWYER, TAX ADVISOR AND/OR FINANCIAL ADVISOR BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO
ACCEPT THIS LITIGATION SETTLEMENT OFFER.
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
Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 14. Future Plans of the Purchaser," the
general partner does 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; or any changes in your
partnership's present capitalization, indebtedness or 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 Litigation
Settlement Offer -- Section 11. Background and Reasons for the Offer" and
"-- Section 13. Conflicts of Interest and Transactions with Affiliates." See
also "The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 8. Valuation of
Units -- Comparison to Alternative Consideration" for certain information
regarding transactions with respect to units of your partnership.
43
Your partnership did not receive any report, opinion or appraisal with
respect to the fairness of this Litigation Settlement Offer or the offer price
being offered to limited partners. However, the partnership did receive the
appraisals prepared by AAA, as described above.
Although the AIMCO Entities have interests that may be in conflict with
those of the partnership's unaffiliated limited partners, each of the AIMCO
Entities believes that the offer price and the structure of the transaction are
fair to the unaffiliated limited partners based on the information and factors
considered by the general partner of your partnership. Each of AIMCO Entities
expressly adopts the analysis, and the factors underlying such analysis, of the
general partner of your partnership.
13. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Conflicts of Interest with Respect to the Offer. The general partner of
your partnership is an affiliate of AIMCO. As a result, the general partner has
substantial conflicts of interest with respect to the offer. We desire to
purchase units at a low price and you desire to sell units at a high price. Such
conflicts of interest in connection with the offer differ from those conflicts
of interest that exist in connection with the general partner's management of
your partnership. Your general partner has filed a Solicitation/Recommendation
Statement on Schedule 14d-9 with the SEC, which indicates that it is remaining
neutral and making no recommendation as to whether limited partners should
tender their units in the offer. YOU ARE URGED TO READ THIS LITIGATION
SETTLEMENT OFFER AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9 AND THE RELATED MATERIALS CAREFULLY AND
IN THEIR 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 property. The general partner of your partnership received total
approximate fees and reimbursements (excluding property management fees) of
$373,000 in 2000, $594,000 in 2001 and $405,000 in 2002. Total approximate fees
and reimbursements (excluding property management fees) for the nine months
ended September 30, 2003 were $314,000. The property manager is entitled to
receive five percent of gross receipts from the partnership's property for
providing property management services. It received approximate management fees
of $348,000 in 2000, $386,000 in 2001 and $364,000 in 2002. We have no current
intention of changing the fee structure for your general partner or the manager
of your partnership's property. Management fees for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003 were approximately $247,000.
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. Under the terms of the settlement, we are not obligated to
make another tender offer for units in your partnership. We have no current
plans to conduct future tender offers for the units in your partnership, but our
plans may change based on future circumstances, including tender offers made by
third parties. Any such future offers that we make could be at prices that are
more or less than the current offer price.
Transactions with Affiliates. The partnership agreement provides for a fee
to the general partner for executive and administrative management services.
During the year ended December 31, 2002, your general partner earned fees of
approximately $105,000 that are included in "Due to affiliates" on the balance
sheet of the partnership.
In accordance with the partnership agreement, the general partner loaned
the partnership funds for operating expenses at Landmark Apartments. At December
31, 2001, the amount of the outstanding loan and accrued interest was
approximately $47,000. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the general
44
partner loaned the partnership approximately $65,000 for operating expenses at
Deer Creek Apartments. During the year ended December 31, 2002, these loans were
repaid in full by the partnership. Interest was charged at the prime rate plus
2%. Interest expense was less than $1,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002
and approximately $1,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001.
Pursuant to the partnership agreement, the general partner is entitled to
receive a distribution equal to 3% of the aggregate disposition price of sold
properties. The partnership paid a distribution of approximately $86,000 to the
general partner related to the sale of Atlanta Crossing Shopping Center in March
2000. This amount is subordinate to the limited partners receiving their
original capital contributions plus a cumulative preferred return of 6% per
annum of their adjusted capital investment, as defined in the partnership
agreement. If the limited partners have not received these returns when the
partnership terminates, the general partner will return this amount to the
partnership.
In addition to reimbursement for services of affiliates, the partnership
paid approximately $138,000 for loan costs related to the refinancing of Deer
Creek Apartments during the year ended December 31, 2001. These costs were
capitalized and are included in other assets on the balance sheet of the
partnership.
Beginning in 2001, your partnership began insuring its properties up to
certain limits through coverage provided by us. We are generally self-insured
for a portion of losses and liabilities related to workers' compensation,
property casualty and vehicle liability. Your partnership insures its properties
above our limits through insurance policies obtained by us from insurers
unaffiliated with your general partner. During the year ended December 31, 2002,
your partnership paid us and our affiliates approximately $104,000 for insurance
coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.
14. FUTURE PLANS OF THE PURCHASER
As described above under "The Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 11.
Background and Reasons for the Offer," your general partner is our affiliate
and, therefore, we have the ability to control the management of your
partnership. In addition, we are affiliated with the manager of your
partnership's 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.
Under the terms of the settlement, although we are not obligated to do so,
we may make another litigation settlement offer within 18 months of the order
finally approving the settlement. In addition, we may make future tender offers
after that time. However, we have no current plans to conduct future tender
offers for units in your partnership. 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 may 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
45
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 general partner does not currently expect to
consider, on behalf of your partnership any of the following transactions: (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. As discussed under "The
Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 15. Certain Information Concerning Your
Partnership -- Investment Objectives and Policies; Sale or Financing of
Investments," the general partner regularly evaluates the real estate and
capital markets. The general partner may consider refinancing the partnership's
existing indebtedness to the extent that the general partner is able to obtain a
lower interest rate or if such indebtedness is approaching maturity.
Furthermore, in the event that the general partner receives an attractive offer
for any of your partnership's properties, the general partner would give due
consideration to such an offer.
If any of the transactions referred to above occur, and financial benefits
accrue to the 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 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.
15. CERTAIN INFORMATION CONCERNING YOUR PARTNERSHIP
General. Your partnership was organized on October 12, 1982 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 three residential
apartment complexes. Your partnership had approximately 1,615 limited partners
as of September 30, 2003.
General Partner. The general partner of your partnership is Angeles Realty
Corporation II, which is an affiliate of AIMCO. Our affiliate serves as manager
of the property owned by your partnership. The general partner of your
partnership received total approximate fees and reimbursements (excluding
property management fees) of $373,000 in 2000, $594,000 in 2001, and $405,000 in
2002. Total approximate fees and reimbursements (excluding property management
fees) for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $314,000. The property
manager is entitled to receive five percent of gross receipts from the
partnership's property for providing property management services. It received
approximate management fees of $348,000 in 2000, $386,000 in 2001, and $364,000
in 2002. Management fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were
approximately $247,000.
Ownership and Voting. We, together with Cooper River Properties, L.L.C.,
Broad River Properties, L.L.C. and AIMCO IPLP, L.P. (which are our affiliates),
own 61,754 units, or 61.88%, 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 most
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. See "The Litigation
Settlement Offer -- Section 7. Effects of the Offer" and "-- Section 16. Voting
Power."
Investment Objectives and Policies; Sale or Financing of Investments. In
general, your general partner (which is our affiliate) regularly evaluates the
partnership's property by considering various factors,
46
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. Although the future operating
results of your partnership and future sales prices of the property owned by
your partnership are uncertain, the operating performance of your partnership's
property may improve in the future, which, in turn, may result in higher
property values, making a sale of your partnership's properties a more
attractive option in the future. Such values, however, are also a function of
capitalization rates in the market and the interest rate environment at the
time. Furthermore, the general partner expects to spend approximately $62,000
for capital improvements at the property for the remainder of 2003 to repair and
update the property. Although there can be no assurance as to effect of these
expenditures on the future performance of your partnership's property, 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, 2037
unless sooner terminated as provided in the agreement or by law.
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 $234,000 for
2003, 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.

(3) The maturity date of this mortgage has been extended thru the end of
December 2003.
On June 27, 2001, the partnership refinanced the mortgage encumbering Deer
Creek Apartments. The refinancing replaced indebtedness of approximately
$5,985,000 with a new mortgage of $13,750,000. The new mortgage carries a stated
interest rate of 7.43% as compared to the 7.33% interest rate on the old
mortgage. Payments on the mortgage loan are due monthly until the loan matures
in July 2021. Total capitalized loan costs were approximately $406,000 for the
year ended December 31, 2001. These costs included $138,000 in fees paid to the
general partner during the year ended December 31, 2001. The partnership
recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $57,000 due
to the write-off of unamortized loan costs.
On May 21, 2003, the partnership refinanced the mortgages encumbering
Georgetown Apartments. The refinancing replaced the existing mortgages of
approximately $5,017,000 with a new mortgage in the amount of $6,175,000. Total
capitalized loan costs were approximately $174,000 during the nine months ended
June 30, 2003. These costs included approximately $62,000 in fees payable to the
general partner. The partnership recognized a loss on the early extinguishment
of debt of approximately $58,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2003,
due to the write-off of unamortized loan costs and debt discounts and the
payment of a prepayment penalty.
49
Initially, the May 21, 2003 refinancing of Georgetown Apartments was under
an interim credit facility that also provided for the refinancing of several
other properties. The interim credit facility created separate loans for each
property refinanced thereunder, which loans were not cross-collateralized or
cross-defaulted with each other. During the term of the interim credit facility,
Georgetown Apartments was required to make interest-only payments. The first
month's interest rate for Georgetown Apartments was 2.78%.
As of June 1, 2003, the loan on Georgetown Apartments was assumed by a
different lender. The credit facility with the new lender has a maturity of five
years with an option for the partnership to elect one five-year extension. This
credit facility also created separate loans for each property refinanced
thereunder, which loans are not cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted with
each other. Each note under this credit facility is initially a variable rate
loan, and after three years the partnership has the option of converting the
note to a fixed rate loan. The interest rate on the variable rate loans is 85
basis points over the Fannie Mae discounted mortgage-backed security index, and
the rate resets monthly. Each loan automatically renews at the end of each
month. In addition, monthly principal payments are required based on a 30-year
amortization schedule, using the interest rate in effect during the first month
that the property is financed by the credit facility. The loans may be prepaid
without penalty.
The partnership intends to refinance the mortgages encumbering Landmark
Apartments and Georgetown Apartments and/or sell the properties prior to their
maturity dates. If the properties cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient
amount, the partnership will risk losing the properties through foreclosure.

Legal Proceedings. From time to time, your partnership may be a party to a

Offer -- Section 9. The Lawsuit and the Settlement."
16. 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 affiliate, 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, together with Cooper River Properties, L.L.C., Board
River Properties, L.L.C. and AIMCO IPLP, L.P. (which are our affiliates), own
61,754 units, or 61.88%, 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 most 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. See "The Litigation Settlement
Offer -- Section 7. Effects of the Offer."
17. SOURCE OF FUNDS
We expect that approximately $3,168,400 will be required to purchase all of
the limited partnership units that we are seeking in this offer exclusive of
fees and expenses. For more information regarding fees and expenses, see "The
Litigation Settlement Offer -- Section 21. Fees and Expenses."
In addition to this offer, we are concurrently making offers to acquire
interests in approximately 43 other limited partnerships pursuant to the terms
of the settlement. If all such offers were fully subscribed for cash, we would
be required to pay approximately $107 million for all such units. If for some
reason we did not have such funds available we might extend these offers for a
period of time sufficient for us to obtain additional funds, or we could
terminate the offers. However, we do not expect all such offers to be fully
subscribed. Additionally, we believe that we will have sufficient cash on hand
and available sources of financing to acquire all units tendered pursuant to
such offers. As of September 30, 2003, we had $126 million of cash on hand and
$285 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.
We have a $445 million revolving credit facility with Bank of America,
Fleet National Bank and First Union National Bank with a syndicate comprised of
a total of ten lender participants. We are the borrower and all obligations
thereunder are guaranteed by certain of AIMCO's subsidiaries. The obligations
under the credit facility are secured, among other things, by our pledge of our
stock ownership in certain subsidiaries of AIMCO, and a first priority 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 2.15% and 2.85% in the
case of LIBOR-based loans and between 0.65% and 1.35% in the case of base rate
loans, based upon a fixed charge coverage ratio. The credit facility expires on
July 31, 2005 and can be extended at AIMCO's option for a one-year term on a
one-time basis.

18. 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.
No provisions have been made with regard to the offer to allow you or other
limited partners to inspect the books and records of the partnership or to
obtain counsel or, other than as required by the settlement, appraisal services
at our expense or at the expense of your partnership. However, you have the
right under your partnership's agreement of limited partnership to obtain a list
of the limited partners in your partnership.
19. CONDITIONS TO 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 Litigation
Settlement Offer and at or before the expiration of our offer (including any

your partnership of more than $10,000 per year, or a decrease in value of
an asset of your partnership, or the incurrence of a liability with
respect to your partnership, in an amount in excess of $100,000 (a
"Material Adverse Effect"), or we shall have become aware of any facts

20. CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS
General. Except as set forth in this Section 20, we are not 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 and Rule 13e-3 Transaction 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 20.
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.
54
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.
21. FEES AND EXPENSES
You will not pay any partnership transfer fees if you tender your units.
Except as set forth herein, we will not pay any fees or commissions to any
broker, dealer or other person for soliciting tenders of units pursuant to the
offer. We have retained The Altman Group, Inc. to act as Information Agent in
connection with our offer. The Information Agent may contact holders of units by
mail, telephone, telex, telegraph and personal interview and may request
brokers, dealers and other nominee limited partners to forward materials
relating to the offer to beneficial owners of the units. We will pay the
Information Agent reasonable and customary compensation for its services in
connection with the offer, plus reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses, and
will indemnify it against certain liabilities and expenses in connection
therewith, including liabilities under the Federal securities laws. We will also
pay all costs and expenses of printing and mailing the offer and any related
legal fees and expenses. However, under the terms of the settlement, the offer
price has been reduced by the costs and expenses related to making this offer.
The partnership will not be responsible for paying any of the fees or expenses
incurred by us in connection with this offer.
