                     TELECOMMUNICATIONS INCOME FUND X, L.P.
                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2001 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2001. For further information, refer to the financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2000.

On December 31, 1999, the Partnership ceased reinvestment in equipment and
leases and began the orderly liquidation of the Partnership in accordance with
the partnership agreement. As a result, the unaudited financial statements have
been presented under the liquidation basis of accounting. Under the liquidation
basis of accounting, assets are stated at their estimated net realizable values
and liabilities include estimated costs associated with carrying out the plan of
liquidation.

Management decreased its estimate of the liquidation value of net assets during
the first six months of 2001 by $2,966,716. This decrease is primarily due to
the write-off of securities the Partnership held in Actel Integrated
Communications Inc. ("Actel") and loans to Murdock Communications Corporation
("Murdock") and due to the impairment of equipment held for sale. On April 11,
2001, Actel filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The Partnership had a realized loss
of $947,658 to write-off the carrying value of its 421,181 shares of Actel
preferred stock. The Partnership also wrote off $910,000 representing its
remaining carrying value of notes receivable of Murdock. Murdock's primary asset
was the preferred stock of Actel. Another lessee of the Partnership, LIDS
Corporation, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy during the first quarter, resulting
in an increase to the allowance for possible loan and lease losses of $200,000.
The Partnership also decreased its estimate of the liquidation value of net
assets as a result of the impairment of equipment held for sale of $647,548. The
Partnership has a tentative agreement to sell the equipment and has written the
equipment down to its expected sales price. No assurance can be provided that
the sale will be consummated or that the carrying value of the equipment will be
realized.

NOTE B -- NET INVESTMENT IN DIRECT FINANCING LEASES AND NOTES RECEIVABLE
The Partnership's net investment in direct financing leases and notes receivable

Note C - CONTINGENCIES
SA Communications filed a suit against the Partnership, the General Partner, and
others alleging the Partnership received a preference of approximately $45,000
prior to the filing of its petition in bankruptcy. The Partnership maintains
that it was receiving regular monthly payments and there was no preference.
Negotiations are in progress with the bankruptcy trustee. No loss, if any, has
been recorded in the financial statements with respect to this matter.

The General Partner has approximately $2,200,000 of notes payable and redeemable
preferred stock maturing in 2001 and may not have sufficient liquid assets to
repay such amounts. The General Partner is pursuing additional financing,
refinancing, and asset sales to meet its obligations. No assurance can be
provided that the General Partner will be successful in its efforts.


Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
On December 31, 1999, the Partnership ceased reinvestment in equipment and
leases and began the orderly liquidation of the Partnership in accordance with
the partnership agreement. As a result, the unaudited financial statements have
been presented under the liquidation basis of accounting. Under the liquidation
basis of accounting, assets are stated at their estimated net realizable values
and liabilities include estimated costs associated with carrying out the plan of
liquidation.

As discussed above, the Partnership is in liquidation and does not believe a
comparison of results would be meaningful. The Partnership realized $90,151 in
income from direct financing leases, notes receivable, and other income during
the first six months of 2001. This represents an annualized return on average
net assets of approximately 6.1%.

Management decreased its estimate of the liquidation value of net assets during
the first six months of 2001 by $2,966,716. This decrease is primarily due to
the write-off of securities the Partnership held in Actel Integrated
Communications Inc. ("Actel") and loans to Murdock Communications Corporation
("Murdock") and due to the impairment of equipment held for sale. On April 11,
2001, Actel filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The Partnership had a realized loss
of $947,658 to write-off the carrying value of its 421,181 shares of Actel
preferred stock. The Partnership also wrote off $910,000 representing its
remaining carrying value of notes receivable of Murdock. Murdock's primary asset
was the preferred stock of Actel. Another lessee of the Partnership, LIDS
Corporation, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy during the first quarter, resulting
in an increase to the allowance for possible loan and lease losses of $200,000.
The Partnership also decreased its estimate of the liquidation value of net
assets as a result of the impairment of equipment held for sale of $647,548. The
Partnership has a tentative agreement to sell the equipment and has written the
equipment down to its expected sales price. No assurance can be provided that
the sale will be consummated or that the carrying value of the equipment will be
realized.

The Partnership has accrued the estimated expenses of liquidation, which is
$221,782 at June 30, 2001. The General Partner reviews this estimate and will
adjust quarterly, as needed. The Partnership will continue to make distributions
to the partners as leases, notes receivable, and equipment are collected or sold
and other assets are sold. The valuation of assets and liabilities necessarily
requires many estimates and assumptions and there are uncertainties in carrying
out the liquidation of the Partnership's net assets. The actual value of the
liquidating distributions will depend on a variety of factors, including



                                       7


   8


the actual timing of distributions to the partners. The actual amounts are
likely to differ from the amounts presented in the financial statements.

As of June 30, 2001, there were two customers with payments over 90 days past
due. When payments are past due more than 90 days, the Partnership discontinues
recognizing income on those contracts. The Partnership's net investment in these
contracts at June 30, 2001 was $58,663. Management believes its reserve is
adequate related to these customers. Management will continue to monitor the
past due contracts and take the necessary steps to protect the Partnership's
investment.

The Partnership's portfolio of leases, notes receivable, and equipment under
operating leases are concentrated in pay telephones, representing approximately
91% of the portfolio at June 30, 2001. Two customers account for approximately
78% of the Partnership's portfolio of leases and notes receivable at June 30,
2001.

                                            =============         =============


The Partnership's primary market risk exposure with respect to equity securities
is equity price. The Partnership's general strategy in owning equity securities
is long-term growth in the equity value of emerging companies in order to
increase the rate of return to the limited partners over the life of the
Partnership. The primary risk of the portfolio is derived from the underlying
ability of the entity invested in to satisfy debt obligations and its ability to
maintain or improve common equity values. The Partnership holds 165,900 shares
of Murdock as available for sale and 426,600 shares as not readily marketable,
due to restrictions imposed by rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Murdock is an emerging company whose stock price can be volatile. At
June 30, 2001, the total amount at risk was $26,529.

The Partnership manages interest rate risk, its primary market risk exposure
with respect to notes receivable, by limiting the terms of notes receivable to
no more than five years and generally requiring full repayment ratably over the
term of the note.
