                    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-QSB and Regulation
S-B. 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 nine months ended September 30, 2005 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2005. For further information, refer to the financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB for
the year ended December 31, 2004.

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.


NOTE B - NOTES RECEIVABLE, NET
The Partnership's net notes receivable consists of the following:

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 $9,301 in
income from direct financing leases, notes receivable, and other income during
the first nine months of 2005. Management decreased its estimate of the
liquidation value of net assets during the first nine months of 2005 by $20,560.
This decrease was due to a net increase in the value of an equity security
$11,280, a decrease in the reserve for estimated losses on notes receivable of
$8,160, and an increase in the estimated expenses of liquidation of $40,000. The
net increase in the value of an equity security was the result of the
Partnership's sale of its holdings in Polar Molecular Holding Corporation. The
Partnership sold its entire holdings of 1,343,407 shares, resulting in cash
proceeds of $54,941 and a realized loss of $993,145 (along with an unrealized
gain of $1,004,425, reversing prior year's unrealized losses). The Partnership
has accrued the estimated expenses of liquidation, which are $28,821 at
September 30, 2005. The General Partner reviews this estimate and will adjust
quarterly, as needed.

Management is attempting to liquidate the remaining assets of the Partnership as
soon as feasibly possible while trying to obtain the highest proceeds possible.
The Partnership will make distributions to the partners, to the extent cash is
available, as notes receivable and other assets are collected or 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 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 September 30, 2005, the Partnership had
$75,465 of cash on hand.

As of September 30, 2005, one customer was over 90 days past due. The principal
balance of this note receivable is $75,452 as of September 30, 2005. Management
believes its reserves are adequate as of September 30, 2005. Management will
monitor any past due contracts and take the necessary steps to protect the
Partnership's investment.

The Partnership's notes receivable are concentrated in pay telephones,
representing 100% of the portfolio at September 30, 2005. One customer accounts
for over 90% of the Partnership's notes receivable at September 30, 2005 and is
past due as stated above.

The table below provides information about the Partnership's notes receivable
that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The table presents the
principal amounts and related weighted average interest rates by expected
