  Property, which services include:  negotiating the financing commitments for the
  Property;  securing  necessary  approvals  and permits for the  development  and
  construction  of the Property;  and obtaining  allocations of Low Income Housing
  Credits.  This  payment  will be  made in  installments  after  receipt  of each
  installment of the capital contributions made by Series 6.

  obligations (see, e.g., note 3), and the following,  in the order set forth: the
  capital  contributions  of Series 6; the  capital  contribution  of the  special
  limited partner;  the capital contribution of the Local General Partner; and the

  regarding construction or operations of the Property have been fulfilled.

  NOTE 1 - GENERAL
  
  The  information  contained in the  following  notes to the  proforma  financial
  statements is condensed  from that which  appears in the  financial  statements.

  NOTE 2 - INTRODUCTION TO PROFORMA ADJUSTMENTS
  
  As of June 30,  1998,  the  Partnership  was not  admitted as  majority  limited
  partner  in  any  limited  partnerships.   Subsequent  to  June  30,  1998,  the
  Partnership  has  acquired  a  limited  partnership   interest  in  one  limited
  partnership;  Trenton  Village  Apts.,  L.P.  (TRENTON),  and is  negotiating to
  acquire the limited  partnership  interests in four other  partnerships that own
  six apartment complexes, Ottawa I, L.P. (OTTAWA);  Preservation Partners I, L.P.
  (PRESERVATION);  United  Development  Co., L.P. - 97.0 (UNITED  97.0);  and West
  Mobile County Housing, Ltd. (WEST MOBILE).  PRESERVATION owns the Autumn Ridge I
  Apartments  (PRESERVATION  AUTUMN),  the  Pontiac "A"  Apartments  (PRESERVATION
  PONTIAC) and the Shumway Apartments  (PRESERVATION  SHUMWAY).  These investments
  commit the Partnership to capital contributions as follows:

  partners'  capital  ($1,506,000  less notes  receivable  of $97,500).  The first

  $210,840 and the adjustments to the general partner's equity of $(2,108) and the

  The first adjustment to investment in limited partnerships and the adjustment to
  notes payable to limited  partnerships of $6,619,439  reflect the  Partnership's

  second  adjustment  to  investment  in  limited   partnerships  and  the  second
  adjustment to accrued fees and expenses due to general partner and affiliates of
  $98,595  reflect  the  acquisition  fee for the  acquisition  of the  identified
  limited partnerships.
  
  The  five  limited   partnerships   (seven   apartment   complexes)  were  under
  construction or rehabilitation during the period presented and had no operations

  accounting to account for its investments in these local limited partnerships.
