These financial statements are the responsibility of the company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Rolling Ridge, LLC as of December 31, 1996, and the results of its operations, changes in members' equity and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ James L.

Organization and SummarY of Significant Accounting Policies Organization Rolling Ridge, LLC, a California limited liability company, was formed on June 6, 1996 as the successor entity to Rolling Ridge Partners, (Duane R. Raab, Ralph E. Haun, and Diane E. Haun) a California general partnership, which developed and constructed the 110-unit multi-family residential rental project located in Chino Hills, County of San Bernardino, California, known as Rolling Ridge Apartment. The effective commencement date of Rolling Ridge, LLC is August 2, 1996, the date the partners refinanced the original loan on the property. Rolling Ridge, LLC has a limited life and will be dissolved by January 1, 2036. Basis of Accounting The company's books are maintained on the modified cash basis of accounting. These financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Rental Income Rental income is recognized for apartment rentals as they accrue. Advance receipts of rental income is deferred and classified as liabilities until earned. All apartment leases are operating leases. Land and Buildings Land and buildings contributed to the LLC by the predecessor partners have been recorded at their historical cost basis to the partners, which approximates the fair market value of the apartment complex per an appraisal as of August 2, 1996. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 27.5 years. Income Taxes The company is not a taxpaying entity for federal and state income tax purposes, and thus no income tax expense has been recorded in the statements. Income of the company is taxed to the members in their individual returns. ROLLING RIDGE, LLC (a limited liability company) Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1996 2. Mortgage Payable The mortgage payable to American Tax-Exempt Bond Trust in the amount of $4,925,000 as provided through the issuance and sale of Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds 1996 Series A (Rolling Ridge Apartments) issued by the County of San Bernardino, California. The note bears interest at an annual rate of 9.0%, payable monthly. The terms of the note provide for the payment of interest only until maturity, July 1, 2026, at which time the entire principal balance is due. The note also provides for contingent interest equal to 30% of net property cash flow after payment of the base interest, and 25% of net sales or repayment proceeds (which may in certain circumstances when no sale proceeds are received, including but not limited to refinancing, be measured by fair market value) over repayment of outstanding principal until the borrower has paid interest at a simple annual rate of 16% over the term of the note, after which no further contingent interest payments will be required. Since there was a negative cash flow for the periods from August 3 to December 31, 1996, no contingent interest was paid or is payable. The company is required to make monthly deposits in escrow in an amount equal to one-twelfth of the estimated annual real property taxes and insurance premiums for the property. In addition, the company is required to establish and maintain a replacement reserve escrow account and make monthly deposits of $1,833 into this account. 3. Extraordinarv Item The company has recognized forgiveness of debt during the year of $1,510,000 as a result of the refinancing of its original mortgage payable. Under the terms of a settlement agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (which succeeded the Resolution Trust Corporation as successor to Mercury Federal Savings & Loan Association) the prior mortgage (bonds) in the amount of $6,500,000 were mandatorily redeemed concurrently with the issuance of the County of San Bernardino, California Multifamily Housing Revenue Refunding ROLLING RIDGE, LLC (a limited liability company) Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 1996 Bonds, 1996 Series A (Rolling Ridge Apartments) in the amount of $4,925,000. The gain on the forgiveness of indebtedness was determined as follows: Mortgage payable balance at August 2, 1996 $ 6,500,000 Net amount paid to FDIC 4,990,000 ----------- Amount forgiven $ 1,510,000 =========== While the company and its members will not pay income taxes on the gain resulting from the forgiveness, there are tax attribute adjustments to the individual members.
