[ X ] PART I Item 1. Business - ---------------- Balcor Preferred Pension-12 A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the "Registrant") is a limited partnership formed in 1987 under the laws of the State of Illinois. The Registrant raised $29,270,800 from sales of Limited Partnership Interests. The Registrant's operations currently consist of an investment in one participating first mortgage loan and two joint venture investments in real properties, and all financial information included in this report relates to this industry segment. The Registrant originally funded four loans. As a result of one repayment and two foreclosures, the Registrant has one investment in an acquisition loan in its portfolio and two investments in joint ventures with affiliates as of December 31, 1995. Operationally, existing apartment properties continued to register occupancy percentages in the 90s, with average rents rising at an annual rate of between 3 and 4 percent. Apartments are still considered one of the top real estate asset classes in terms of performance. However, some markets are experiencing new construction of rental units which, if unrestrained, could impact the performance of existing properties. Most of the new construction is aimed at the two segments of the rental market which are growing the fastest: low-income households and upper-income households who prefer to rent rather than own. Of all the major asset classes, apartments typically display the least volatility in terms of property values. With virtually no new construction over the past few years, the national office market has experienced consistently rising occupancy rates and, recently, rising rental rates. Investor interest has also returned, typically preferring suburban buildings over their downtown counterparts. Except for properties built for a specific tenant, the economic feasibility of new construction in most markets is still several years away. Build-to-suit construction for large companies currently in leased space could restrict office appreciation rates over the next few years. In addition, increased vacancies could result from companies who restructure their workforce in order to reduce their occupancy costs. The General Partner had previously advised Limited Partners that the strategy for the Registrant was to sell or otherwise dispose of all the assets over the next four to five year period. The General Partner also stated that the timing of the liquidation could be lengthened or shortened due to changes in market conditions, economic factors, interest rates and unforeseen events. Since February 1996, the General Partner believes that the market for multifamily housing properties has become increasingly favorable to sellers of these properties. This belief is based on the results of the sales and marketing activities by various other partnerships affiliated with the Registrant. These favorable market conditions are in part attributable to the increasing strength of the capital markets and the re-entry of REITs into the acquisition market. Additionally, the sale of the commercial properties may be accelerated if market conditions are favorable. If the current market conditions for sales remain favorable and appropriate sales prices can be obtained, the Registrant's liquidation strategy may be accelerated. The Registrant received notice of an unsolicited offer for the purchase of limited partnership interests ("tender offer") in February 1996, which tender offer expired on March 12, 1996. The tender offer was made by Equity Resource Fund - XVIII ("Equity Resource"). Equity Resource stated that their primary motive in making the offer was to make a profit from the purchase of the interests. Equity Resource acquired 1.1% of the total interests outstanding in the Registrant. The Registrant incurred administrative costs in responding to the tender offer and may incur additional costs if additional tender offers are made in the future. The General Partner cannot predict with any certainty what impact any future tender offers will have on the operations or management of the Registrant. In February 1995, the Registrant and three affiliates acquired title to the 45 West 45th Street Office Building through foreclosure. See Item 7. Liquidity and Capital Resources for additional information. The Registrant, by virtue of its joint venture ownership of real estate acquired through foreclosure, is subject to federal and state laws and regulations covering various environmental issues. Management of the Registrant utilizes the services of environmental consultants to assess a wide range of environmental issues and to conduct tests for environmental contamination as appropriate. The General Partner is not aware of any potential liability due to environmental issues or conditions that would be material to the Registrant. The officers and employees of Balcor Mortgage Advisors-VIII, the General Partner of the Registrant, and its affiliates perform services for the Registrant. The Registrant currently has no employees engaged in its operations. Item 2. Properties - ------------------ The Registrant currently holds minority joint venture interests in the 45 West 45th Street Office Building (New York City, New York), and the Sun Lake Apartments (Lake Mary, Florida), which were acquired through foreclosure. See Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information. In the opinion of the General Partner, the Registrant has provided for adequate insurance coverage for its real estate investment properties. Item 3. Legal Proceedings - ------------------------- Williams class action - --------------------- In February 1990, a proposed class-action complaint was filed, Paul Williams and Beverly Kennedy, et al. vs. Balcor Pension Investors, et al., Case No.: 90-C-0726 (U.S. District Court, Northern District of Illinois). The Registrant, the General Partner, seven affiliated limited partnerships (together with the Registrant, the "Related Partnerships") and other affiliates are the defendants. The complaint alleges violations of Federal securities laws as to the adequacy and accuracy of disclosure of information in the offering of limited partnership interests in the Related Partnerships and alleges breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligence and violations under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act. The complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages. The defendants subsequently filed a counterclaim asserting claims of fraud and breach of warranty against certain plaintiffs, as well as a request for declaratory relief regarding the defendants' rights to be indemnified for their expenses incurred in defending the litigation. The defendants seek to recover for damage to their reputations and business as well as costs and attorneys' fees in defending the claims. In May 1993, the Court issued an order denying the plaintiffs' motion for class certification based principally on the inadequacy of the individual plaintiffs representing the proposed class. However, the Court gave plaintiffs leave to propose new individual class representatives. Upon the defendants' motion, the Court ordered plaintiffs' counsel to pay $75,000 to the defendants and $25,000 to the Court for costs incurred with the class certification motion, which amounts continue to be outstanding. In July 1994, the Court granted plaintiffs' motion certifying a class relating to the Federal securities fraud claims. The class certified by the Court includes only the original investors in the Related Partnerships. The defendants filed a motion for reconsideration in opposition to the class certification, which was denied in December 1994. The Court approved the Notice of Class Action in August 1995 which was sent to potential members of the class in September 1995. The defendants intend to continue vigorously contesting this action. Management of each of the defendants believes they have meritorious defenses to contest the claims. It is not determinable at this time whether or not an unfavorable decision in this action would have a material adverse impact on the Registrant. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders - ------------------------------------------------------------ No matters were submitted to a vote of the Limited Partners of the Registrant during 1995. PART II Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Matters - ------- There has not been an established public market for Limited Partnership Interests and it is not anticipated that one will develop. For information regarding distributions, see Item 7. Liquidity and Capital Resources. As of December 31, 1995, no funds have been set aside in the Repurchase Fund to repurchase Interests from Limited Partners and it is not expected that any amounts will be available in the Repurchase Fund to satisfy repurchase requests in the foreseeable future. See Note 3 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information. As of December 31, 1995, the number of holders of Limited Partnership Interests of the Registrant was 4,047. Item 6.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Results of Operations - --------------------- Operations - ---------- Summary of Operations - --------------------- Balcor Preferred Pension - 12 A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") received lower interest income on loans during 1995 and 1994 as a result of the Skyline Village loan repayment in 1994. In addition, the Partnership recognized its share of provisions for losses relating to the change in the estimates of the fair values of its joint venture investments during 1995, 1994 and 1993. These losses are reflected in participation in joint ventures with affiliates in the financial statements. The combined effect of these events resulted in a net loss during 1995 as compared to net income during 1994 and lower net income during 1994 as compared to 1993. Further discussion of the Partnership's operations is summarized below. 1995 Compared to 1994 - --------------------- The June 1994 repayment of the Skyline Village loan resulted in a decrease in interest income on loans for 1995 when compared to 1994. Higher interest rates resulted in an increase in interest income on short-term investments for 1995 as compared to 1994. As a result of higher legal fees in 1994 due to the default on the 45 West 45th Street loan and higher mortgage servicing fees in 1994 due to the repayment of the Skyline Village loan and the foreclosure on the 45 West 45th Street loan in February 1995, administrative expenses were lower during 1995 as compared to 1994. Provisions are charged to income when the General Partner believes an impairment has occurred to the value of its joint venture properties or in a borrower's ability to repay a loan or in the value of the collateral property. Determinations of fair value are made periodically on the basis of performance under the terms of the loan agreement and assessments of property operations. Determinations of fair value represent estimations based on many variables which affect the value of real estate, including economic and demographic conditions. The Partnership recognized no provisions during 1995 and 1994 related to its loans. During 1995 and 1994, the Partnership recognized provisions of approximately $918,000 and $685,000, respectively, related to the Partnership's joint venture interests in real estate held for sale to provide for changes in the estimate of the fair value of the properties. Participation in joint ventures with affiliates represents the Partnership's share of the income or loss for the Sun Lake Apartments and the 45 West 45th Street Office Building. As a result of a provision for loss relating to the change in the estimate of the fair value of the 45 West 45th Street Office Building recognized during 1995 and lower income from this property during 1995 as compared to 1994, the participation in the loss of joint ventures with affiliates was higher in 1995 as compared to 1994. This was partially offset by a provision for loss relating to the change in the estimate of the fair value of Sun Lake Apartments during 1995 which was less than the provision for loss recognized in 1994 and higher income generated by this property in 1995 as compared to 1994. 1994 Compared to 1993 - --------------------- The June 1994 repayment on the Skyline Village loan resulted in a decrease in interest income on loans during 1994 as compared to 1993. Higher average cash balances due to proceeds from the Skyline Village loan repayment and higher interest rates resulted in an increase in interest income on short-term investments during 1994 as compared to 1993. As a result of an increase in legal fees related to the 45 West 45th Street Office Building foreclosure, and increases in accounting fees and investor communication expenses, administrative expenses increased during 1994 as compared to 1993. The Partnership recognized losses of approximately $685,000 in 1994 and approximately $500,000 in 1993 as its share of the decline in fair value of the Sun Lake Apartments and the 45 West 45th Street office building, respectively. As a result, participation in loss of joint ventures with affiliates increased during 1994 as compared to 1993. Liquidity and Capital Resources - -------------------------------- The cash position of the Partnership decreased as of December 31, 1995 as compared to December 31, 1994 primarily due to a special distribution to Limited Partners in July 1995. Operating activities consisted of the cash flow from the Partnership's loan receivable and interest income earned on short-term investments, which was partially offset by the payment of administrative expenses. Investing activities consisted of net contributions to the joint ventures with affiliates. Financing activities consisted of quarterly distributions to the Limited Partners and the General Partner. The Partnership classifies the cash flow performance of the properties in which it has a joint venture interest as either positive, a marginal deficit or a significant deficit. A deficit is considered to be significant if it exceeds $250,000 annually or 20% of the property's rental and service income. The Partnership defines cash flow generated from the properties as an amount equal to the property's revenue receipts less property related expenditures, which include any debt service payments. The 45 West 45th Street Office Building, which does not have any underlying debt, generated positive cash flow during 1995 and 1994. In addition, significant leasing costs were incurred in 1995 at the property. These items were not included in classifying the cash flow performance of the property since they are nonrecurring expenditures. Had these costs been included, the property would have generated a significant cash flow deficit for 1995. The occupancy rate of this property was 86% at December 31, 1995. The Sun Lake Apartments, which has an underlying first mortgage loan, generated positive cash flow during 1995 and 1994. The occupancy rate of the property was 97% at December 31, 1995. Rental markets continue to remain extremely competitive; therefore, the General Partner's goals are to maintain high occupancy levels, while increasing rents where possible, and to monitor and control operating expenses and capital improvement requirements at the properties. The General Partner had previously advised Limited Partners that the strategy for the Partnership was to sell or otherwise dispose of all the assets over the next four to five year period. The General Partner also stated that the timing of the liquidation could be lengthened or shortened due to changes in market conditions, economic factors, interest rates and unforeseen events. Since February 1996, the General Partner believes that the market for multifamily housing properties has become increasingly favorable to sellers of these properties. This belief is based on the results of the sales and marketing activities by various other partnerships affiliated with the Partnership. These favorable market conditions are in part attributable to the increasing strength of the capital markets and the re-entry of REITs into the acquisition market. Additionally, the sale of the commercial properties may be accelerated if market conditions are favorable. If the current market conditions for sales remain favorable and appropriate sales prices can be obtained, the Partnership's liquidation strategy may be accelerated. In October 1995, the underlying revenue bonds, which financed the Sun Lake Apartments $15,700,000 mortgage note payable, were refunded. The proceeds from the new bonds were used to repay the prior bonds. The interest rate increased from 4.5% to 5.375%. The prior bonds were secured by a letter of credit for a fee of 1.7% annually. The new bonds require payment of guarantee and servicing fees totaling .975% annually. The monthly payment due on the new bonds is $99,080. The maturity date of the bonds is November 2025 with the next mandatory remarketing date being November 2005. In connection with the refunding, the $700,000 debt service reserve was released, and the Sun Lake joint venture paid approximately $775,000 in financing and closing fees. The Partnership and three affiliates (the "Participants") funded a $23,000,000 mortgage loan collateralized by the 45 West 45th Street Office Building. The Partnership funded $5,000,000 of the loan amount for a participating percentage of 21.74%. In February 1995, the Participants received title to the property through foreclosure. In January 1996, the Partnership paid $175,625 ($.60 per Interest) to Limited Partners, representing the regular quarterly distribution for the fourth quarter of 1995 from Cash Flow. The level of the regular quarterly distribution is consistent with that of the prior quarter. The Partnership also paid $4,503 to the General Partner as its unsubordinated distributive share of Cash Flow for the fourth quarter of 1995. During July 1995, the Partnership paid $992,280 ($3.39 per Interest) to Limited Partners, representing a special distribution from Cash Flow reserves and a portion of the Mortgage Reductions received from the repayment of the Skyline Village loan. The level of the regular quarterly distributions was lower in 1995 as compared to 1994 and 1993 due to the reduction in Cash Flow resulting from the repayment of the Skyline Village loan. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, the Partnership made regular quarterly distributions to Limited Partners from Cash Flow totaling $2.40, $3.30 and $3.60 per Interest, respectively. During 1995 and 1994, the Partnership made distributions to Limited Partners from Mortgage Reductions of $.89 and $10.00 per Interest, respectively. To date, including the January 1996 distribution, the Partnership has distributed $50.49 per $100 Limited Partnership Interest, of which $37.12 represents Cash Flow from operations and $13.37 represents Original Capital. The Noland Fashion Square loan has been recorded by the Partnership as an investment in acquisition loan. The Partnership has recorded its share of the collateral property's operations as equity in loss from investment in acquisition loan. The Partnership's share of operations has no effect on the cash flow of the Partnership. Amounts representing contractually required debt service are recorded as interest income on loans. The Partnership expects to continue making quarterly cash distributions from available Cash Flow. In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, ninety-five percent of such Cash Flow will be distributed to Limited Partners, and five percent will be distributed to the General Partner as its share from Partnership operations, subject to certain subordinations. Cash available for distribution will be determined by the General Partner after it creates any Reserves or makes expenditures appropriate for the operation of the Partnership. There is no assurance that the Partnership will generate Cash Flow or that, if generated, it will be available for distribution or be sufficient to provide a return of Original Capital, the Warranty Distribution or the Cumulative Return. For the year ended December 31, 1995, $36,776, which represents one-half of the General Partner's share of distributed Cash Flow, was subordinated in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. See Note 3 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information. In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" which establishes accounting standards for impairment of long-lived assets and long-lived assets to be disposed of. This statement has been adopted by the Partnership as of January 1, 1995, and did not have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Partnership. Inflation has several types of potentially conflicting impacts on real estate investments. Short-term inflation can increase real estate operating costs which may or may not be recovered through increased rents and/or sales prices, depending on general or local economic conditions. In the long-term, inflation can be expected to increase operating costs and replacement costs and may lead to increased rental revenues and real estate values. Item 8. Financial Statement and Supplementary Data - -------------------------------------------------- See Index to Financial Statements in this Form 10-K. The supplemental financial information specified by Item 302 of Regulation S-K is not applicable. Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Financial Disclosure - -------------------- On September 14, 1995 the Registrant approved the engagement of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. as its independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1995 to replace the firm of Ernst & Young LLP, who were dismissed as auditors of the Registrant effective September 14, 1995. The General Partner of the Registrant approved the change in auditors. The reports of Ernst & Young LLP on the Registrant's financial statements for the past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. In connection with the audits of the Registrant's financial statements for each of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 1994, and in the subsequent interim period, there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young LLP on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope and procedures which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young LLP would have caused Ernst & Young LLP to make reference to the matter in their report.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of Noland Fashion Square Partnership, owner of the shopping center known as Noland Fashion Square (the "Property"), which collateralizes the acquisition loan receivable held by the Partnership. The acquisition loan receivable represents 48% of the Partnership's assets at December 31, 1995. The Partnership's equity in loss related to the Property was $72,294 for the year ended December 31, 1995. The financial statements of Noland Fashion Square Partnership were audited by another auditor whose report has been furnished to us. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to data included for the equity in loss of the Property to which the Partnership holds an acquisition loan, is based solely on the report of other auditors. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we 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. We believe that our audit and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of the other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Balcor Preferred Pension-12 A Real Estate Limited Partnership (An Illinois Limited Partnership) at December 31, 1995 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

BALCOR PREFERRED PENSION-12 A REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (An Illinois Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Nature of the Partnership's Business: Balcor Preferred Pension-12 A Real Estate Limited Partnership is engaged principally in investment in joint venture interests in residential and commercial real estate and investment in a first mortgage loan located in various markets within the United States. 2. Accounting Policies: (a) The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the General Partner to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from those estimates. (b) Income on loans is recorded as earned in accordance with the terms of the related loan agreements. The accrual of interest is discontinued when a loan becomes ninety days contractually delinquent or sooner when, in the opinion of the General Partner an impairment has occurred in the value of the collateral property securing the loan. Income on nonaccrual loans or loans which are otherwise not performing in accordance with their terms is recorded on a cash basis. (c) Loan losses on the acquisition loan are charged to income and an allowance account is established when the General Partner believes the loan balance will not be recovered. The General Partner assesses the collectibility of the loan on a periodic basis through a review of the collateral property operations, the property value and the borrower's ability to repay the loan. (d) Investment in acquisition loan represents the mortgage loan which, because the loan agreement includes certain specified terms, must be accounted for as an investment in a real estate venture. The investment is therefore reflected in the accompanying financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Partnership records its investment at cost (representing total loan funding), and subsequently adjusts its investment for its share of the collateral property's income or loss. Amounts representing contractually-required debt service are recorded in the accompanying Statements of Income and Expenses as interest income. Equity in loss from investment in acquisition loan represents the Partnership's share of the collateral property operations, including depreciation and interest expense. The Partnership's share of operations has no effect on cash flow of the Partnership. (e) Investment in joint ventures - affiliates represents the Partnership's interest, under the equity method of accounting, in the joint ventures with affiliates. Under the equity method of accounting, the Partnership records its initial investments at cost and adjusts its investment accounts for additional capital contributions, distributions and its share of each joint venture's income or loss. (f) The Financial Accounting Standard Board's Statement No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. Since quoted market prices are not available for the Partnership's financial instruments, fair values have been based on estimates using present value techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. Statement No. 107 does not apply to all balance sheet items and excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments such as real estate and investment in joint ventures from its disclosure requirements. (g) Cash and cash equivalents include all unrestricted, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. (h) The Partnership is not liable for Federal income taxes and each partner recognizes his proportionate share of the Partnership income or loss in his tax return; therefore, no provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership. (i) Mortgage servicing fees have been reclassified and are included in administrative expenses during 1995. This reclassification has also been made to the previously reported 1994 and 1993 financial statements to conform with the classification used in 1995. This reclassification has not changed the 1994 and 1993 results. 3. Partnership Agreement: The Partnership was organized on July 15, 1987. The Partnership Agreement provides for Balcor Mortgage Advisors-VIII to be the General Partner and for the admission of Limited Partners through the sale of up to 2,000,000 Limited Partnership Interests at $100 per Interest, of which 292,708 were sold through April 28, 1989, the termination date of the offering. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, all profits of the Partnership will be allocated to the General Partner at the greater of 1% of such profits or the General Partner's share of Partnership distributions, with the remainder allocated to the Limited Partners. All losses of the Partnership will be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner. All deductions for offering period payments made to Limited Partners with funds contributed by the General Partner were allocated to the General Partner. To the extent available, Cash Flow will be distributed as follows: (i) 95% will be paid to the holders of Interests and (ii) 5% will be paid to the General Partner. Up to 50% of the General Partner's share of Cash Flow shall be utilized to pay to the Limited Partners any deficiency in the Warranty Distribution of 8% per annum. Amounts utilized from the General Partner's share of Cash Flow to pay a deficiency in the Warranty Distribution will be repaid to the General Partner from future Cash Flow available for distribution or from Mortgage Reductions only after the required subordination levels have been attained. To the extent that one-half of the General Partner's share of Cash Flow has not been utilized to meet deficiencies in the Warranty Distribution, or has been so utilized and has subsequently been repaid to the General Partner, such share will be allocated to the Repurchase Fund. Amounts placed in the Repurchase Fund may, at the sole discretion of the General Partner and subject to certain limitations, be used to repurchase Interests from existing Limited Partners. The General Partner anticipates that one half of its share of Cash Flow will continue to be utilized to fund deficiencies in the Warranty Distribution and, therefore, the General Partner does not expect that the Repurchase Fund will repurchase Interests in the foreseeable future. Amounts allocated, if any, to the Repurchase Fund will be commingled with other assets of the General Partner and, to the extent then available, will be returned to the Partnership at the dissolution of the Partnership to the extent necessary to permit payment to investors of their Original Capital plus any deficiency in their Cumulative Return. 4. Investment in Acquisition Loan: The Partnership and two affiliates (the "Participants") funded the $23,300,000 Noland Fashion Square loan in 1989. The Partnership participates ratably in approximately 38% of the loan, interest income and participation income. The Partnership's share of the loan balance at December 31, 1995 is $7,817,596. Current monthly interest only payments of $68,604 are due representing an interest rate of 9.75%, and the loan matures in 1999. The Participants may receive additional payments from the borrower representing participation in the operating results of the collateral property which exceed specified levels and a share of appreciation in the collateral property upon repayment or refinancing. 5. Allowances for Losses on Loans Activity recorded in the allowances for losses on loans during the three years ended December 31, 1995 is described in the table below. 1995 1994 1993 ------------ ----------- ----------- Loans: Balance at beginning of year $ 545,000 $ 545,000 $ 1,345,000 Direct write-off of loans against allowance None None (800,000) ----------- ----------- ----------- Balance at the end of the year $ 545,000 $ 545,000 $ 545,000 =========== =========== =========== 6. Investments in Joint Ventures - Affiliates: (a) In 1992, the Partnership and an affiliate acquired title to Sun Lake Apartments. Profits and losses, all capital contributions and distributions are allocated in accordance with the participants' original funding percentages. The Partnership's ownership percentage is 38.05%. During 1995 and 1994, the Partnership recognized losses of $380,500 and $684,900, respectively, as its share of the provisions relating to the change in the estimate of the fair value of the property. These amounts are included in the Partnership's participation in income (loss) of joint ventures with affiliates. In addition, during 1995, 1994 and 1993 the Partnership received distributions from this joint venture totaling $165,500, $192,160, and $57,770, respectively. The Partnership made contributions of $279,122 and $101,639 in 1995 and 1993, respectively. The original borrower has retained the right to receive 20% of the net proceeds received upon the first sale of the property after the payment of the third party debt, closing costs, proration items and an amount to the participants equal to their original investment plus certain returns specified in the foreclosure sale agreement. However, in no event will this amount exceed $500,000. (b) In 1995, the Partnership and three affiliates acquired title to the 45 West 45th Street Office Building. The Partnership's investment was reclassified from loan in substantive foreclosure to an investment in joint venture with an affiliate effective January 1993 because it was the General Partner's opinion that the borrower had effectively surrendered control of the property at that time. Profits and losses, all capital contributions and distributions are allocated in accordance with the participants' original funding percentages. The Partnership's ownership percentage is 21.74%. During 1995 and 1993, the Partnership recognized losses of $537,630 and $500,000, respectively, as its share of the provisions relating to the change in the estimate of the fair value of the property. These amounts are included in the Partnership's participation in income (loss) of joint ventures with affiliates. In addition, during 1995, the Partnership made contributions of $290,295 to the joint venture. During 1995 and 1993, the Partnership received distributions of $178,722 and $393,886, respectively, from the joint venture. The following information has been summarized from the financial statements of the joint ventures: 1995 1994 1993 ------------ ------------ ------------ Net investment in real estate held for sale as of December 31 $ 30,786,840 $ 31,603,406 $ 24,685,000 Total liabilities as of December 31 15,873,390 15,982,056 15,869,439 Total income 6,163,884 6,102,755 3,415,562 Income before provision 387,474 636,269 173,851 Provision for potential losses 3,473,000 1,800,000 Net (loss) income (3,085,526) (1,163,731) 173,851 The joint venture information for 1995 and 1994 includes information for both the 45 West 45th Street Office Building and Sun Lake Apartments. The joint venture information for 1993 includes only information for Sun Lake Apartments. 7.

These amounts will be paid to the General Partner only after required distribution levels to investors have been met and such amounts, if any, will then be allocated to the Repurchase Fund. 8. Contingency: The Partnership is currently involved in a lawsuit whereby the Partnership and certain affiliates have been named as defendants alleging certain federal securities law violations with regard to the adequacy and accuracy of disclosures of information concerning the offering of the Limited Partnership Interests of the Partnership. The defendants continue to vigorously contest this action. While a plaintiff class has been certified, no determinations of the merits have been made. It is not determinable at this time whether or not an unfavorable decision in this action would have a material adverse impact on the Partnership. Management of each of the defendants believes they have meritorious defenses to contest the claims. 9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The carrying amounts and fair values of the Partnership's financial instruments at December 31, 1995 are as follows: The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and accrued interest receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value. Acquisition loan receivable: The carrying value of the acquisition loan receivable approximates the fair value. 10. Subsequent Event: In January 1996, the Partnership paid $175,625 ($.60 per Interest) to Limited Partners, representing a distribution for the fourth quarter of 1995 from Cash Flow.

Deferred charges: Lease commissions are amortized by the straight-line method over the term of the leases. Financing costs are amortized by the straight-line method over the term of the related loan.

Lake Sun Partners Limited Partnership (An Illinois Limited Partnership) 1. Nature of the Partnership's Business: Lake Sun Partners Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") is engaged in the operation of residential real estate located in Lake Mary, Florida. 2. Accounting Policies: (a) The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires Lake Sun Partners, Inc. (the "General Partner") to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from those estimates. (b) Effective January 1, 1995 the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, No. 121 (SFAS 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of". Under SFAS 121, the Partnership records its investment in real estate at the lower of cost or fair value, and periodically assesses, but not less than on an annual basis, possible impairment to the value of its property. The General Partner estimates the fair value of its property by dividing the property's expected net operating income by a risk adjusted rate of return which considers economic and demographic conditions in the market. In the event the General Partner determines an impairment in value has occurred, and the carrying amount of the real estate asset will not be recovered, a provision is recorded to reduce the carrying basis of the property to its estimated fair value. The General Partner considers the method referred to above to result in a reasonable measurement of the property's fair value, unless other factors affecting the property's value indicate otherwise. (c) Deferred expenses consist of financing fees which are amortized over the term of the respective agreement. (d) The Financial Accounting Standard Board's Statement No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. Since quoted market prices are not available for the Partnership's financial instruments, fair values have been based on estimates using present value techniques. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. Statement No. 107 does not apply to all balance sheet items and excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments such as real estate and investment in joint ventures from its disclosure requirements. (e) Revenue is recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. (f) Cash and cash equivalents include all unrestricted, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. (g) The Partnership is not liable for Federal income taxes and each partner recognizes his proportionate share of the Partnership income or loss in his tax return; therefore, no provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership. 3. Partnership Agreement: The Partnership was organized in September 1991. The General Partner is Lake Sun Partners, Inc. and the limited partners are Balcor Pension Investors - VI and Balcor Preferred Pension - 12 A Real Estate Limited Partnership. The Partnership's results of the operations are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner. 4. Mortgage Note Payable: In October 1995, the underlying revenue bonds which financed the Sun Lake Apartments $15,700,000 mortgage note payable, were refunded. The proceeds from the new bonds were used to repay the prior bonds. The interest rate increased from 4.5% to 5.375%. The prior bonds were secured by a letter of credit for a fee of 1.7% annually. The new bonds require payment of guarantee and servicing fees totaling .975% annually. The monthly principal and interest payment due on the new bonds is $99,080. The maturity date of the bonds is October 2025 with the next mandatory remarketing date being October 2005. The mortgage note payable had a balance of $15,657,066 at December 31, 1995. The $700,000 debt service reserve account, plus accrued interest, was released as part of the refunding. Real estate held for sale with an aggregate carrying value of $21,885,000 at December 31, 1995 was pledged as collateral for repayment of this mortgage note. Future annual maturities of the above mortgage note payable during each of the next five years are approximately as follows: 1996 $ 179,000 1997 191,000 1998 204,000 1999 217,000 2000 232,000 During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Partnership incurred interest expense on the mortgage note payable of $959,064 and paid interest expense of $1,020,529. 5. Management Agreement: As of December 31, 1995, the property is under a management agreement with a third-party management company. The management agreement provides for an annual fee of 5% of gross operating receipts of the property. 6. Fair Values of Financial Instruments: The carrying amounts and fair values of the Partnership's financial instruments at December 31, 1995 are as follows: The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable approximates fair value. Mortgage notes payable: The fair value for the Partnership's mortgage note payable is $13,675,375 and the carrying value is $15,657,066. The fair value of the mortgage note payable was estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on borrowing rates available to the Partnership at the end of 1995 for mortgage loans with similar terms and maturities.

LAKE SUN PARTNERS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (An Illinois Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Accounting Policies: (a) At January 1, 1994, partners capital has been increased by $1,340,196, real estate held for sale has been increased by $1,541,986 and cash and cash equivalents has been decreased by $201,790 for corrections made from amounts previously reported. At December 31, 1994, partners capital and cash and cash equivalents have been decreased by an additional $101,700 for corrections made from amounts previously reported. (b) The Partnership records real estate held for sale at the lower of cost or fair value, and periodically assesses possible impairment to the value of its property. Determinations of fair value represent estimations based on many variables which affect the value of real estate, including economic and demographic conditions. An allowance for loss is recorded when a decline in the value of the property owned is believed to be temporary. Impairment in value considered to be permanent results in the direct writedown of the property's carrying value to its estimated fair value. The Partnership recognized a provision of $1,800,000 in 1994 to providefor a decline in the fair value of the property. (c) Deferred expenses consist of financing fees which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the loan. (d) Cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. (e) The Partnership is not liable for Federal income taxes and each partner recognizes his proportionate share of the Partnership's income or loss in his tax return; therefore, no provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership. 2. Partnership Agreement: The Partnership was organized in September 1991. The general partner is Lake Sun Partners, Inc. and the limited partners are Balcor Pension Investors - VI and Balcor Preferred Pension - 12. The Partnership's results of operations are allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the general partner. 3. Restricted Investment: In April 1992, a debt service reserve account of $700,000 was established as additional collateral for obligations related to the mortgage loan, pursuant to the settlement agreement reached in December 1991. The funds are invested in short-term interest bearing instruments and interest earned on the investments is payable to the limited partners. The funds will be released once certain terms and conditions of the loan agreement are met. The November 1994 re-marketing of the underlying revenue bonds relating to this loan did not change the terms of the reserve agreement. 4. Mortgage Note Payable: The mortgage loan is financed with underlying revenue bonds. Principal and interest payments due on the mortgage loan reflect payments due to the bondholders. In November 1994, the Partnership re-marketed these bonds, which reduced the interest rate of the loan from 7.625% to 4.5% effective November 1, 1994. The interest rate will remain constant until November 1, 1995, the next re-marketing date of the bonds. The bonds may be redeemed, at par plus accrued interest, on this date and on subsequent dates prior to maturity pursuant to the terms of the bond indenture. The bonds are secured by an irrevocable letter of credit. In connection with the re-marketing, the letter of credit was reduced to approximately $16,131,750 and extended one additional year to November 1, 1995. The Partnership will need to replace the letter of credit or find an alternate credit facility for the bonds as of such date. The Partnership will pay a fee of approximately 1.7% on the letter of credit balance.
