ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- In 1986, the Partnership acquired the Lakeside garden apartment complex utilizing approximately $6,800,00 of offering proceeds. The Partnership financed the acquisition of the property with a first mortgage loan in the amount of approximately $12,800,000. On February 21, 1996, the Partnership contracted to sell the property for a sale price of $14,100,000 to an unaffiliated party, Mid-America Apartments, L.P., a Tennessee limited partnership. The purchaser has deposited $300,000 into an escrow account as earnest money. The remaining $13,800,000 of the sale price will be paid in cash by the purchaser at closing, scheduled to be held on March 12, 1996. From the proceeds of the sale, the Partnership will pay to an unaffiliated party a brokerage commission of $423,000 and to the holder of the first mortgage loan the outstanding balance of the loan, expected to be approximately $12,430,000 at closing, plus an additional amount equal to 50% of the net sale proceeds in excess of $12,654,000. The General Partner will be reimbursed by the Partnership for its actual expenses incurred in connection with the sale. The Partnership will receive $211,500 from the broker for its services. The purchaser will pay from its own funds a brokerage commission estimated to be $130,000 to an affiliate of the company which provides property management services at the property. The closing is subject to the satisfaction of numerous terms and conditions. There can be no assurance that all of the terms and conditions will be complied with and, therefore, it is possible that the sale of the property may not occur. ITEM 7.
