Item 1 - Business
The Registrant, John Hancock Realty Income Fund-III Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), is a Limited Partnership organized on November 4, 1988 under the Massachusetts Uniform Limited Partnership Act. As of December 31, 1996, the partners in the Partnership consisted of a General Partner, John Hancock Realty Equities, Inc. (the "General Partner"), John Hancock Realty Funding, Inc. (the "John Hancock Limited Partner"), John Hancock Income Fund-III Assignor, Inc. (the "Assignor Limited Partner") and 2,612 Unitholders (the "Investors"). The Assignor Limited Partner holds 5 Limited Partnership Interests for its own account and 2,415,229 Assignee Units (the "Units") for the benefit of the Investors. The John Hancock Limited Partner, the Assignor Limited Partner and the Investors are collectively referred to as the Limited Partners. The initial capital of the Partnership was $2,100, representing capital contributions of $1,000 from the General Partner, $1,000 from the John Hancock Limited Partner and $100 from the Assignor Limited Partner. During the offering period, the John Hancock Limited Partner made additional capital contributions of $3,863,366. The Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") authorized the sale of up to 5,000,000 Assignee Units, representing economic and certain other rights attributable to Investor Limited Partnership Interests.
The Units were offered and sold to the public during the period from February 17, 1989 to February 15, 1991 pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership sold the Units for $20 per Unit. No established public market exists on which the Units may be traded.
The Partnership is engaged solely in the business of acquiring, improving, holding for investment and disposing of existing, income-producing, retail, industrial, and office properties on an all-cash basis, free and clear of mortgage indebtedness. Although the Partnership's properties were acquired, and are held, free and clear of mortgage indebtedness, the Partnership may incur mortgage indebtedness on its properties under certain circumstances, as specified in the Partnership Agreement.
The latest date on which the Partnership is due to terminate is December 31, 2019, unless it is sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. It is expected that in the ordinary course of the Partnership's business, the properties of the Partnership will be disposed of, and the Partnership terminated, before December 31, 2019.
Item 1 - Business (continued)
The Partnership's equity real estate investments are subject to various risk factors. Although the risks of equity investing are reduced when properties are acquired on an unleveraged basis, the major risk of owning income-producing properties is the possibility that the properties will not generate income sufficient to meet operating expenses and to fund adequate reserves for repair, replacements, contingencies and anticipated obligations. The income from properties may be affected by many factors, including: i) adverse changes in general economic conditions and local conditions, such as competitive overbuilding, a decrease in employment, or adverse changes in real estate zoning laws, which may reduce the desirability of real estate in the area or ii) other circumstances over which the Partnership may have little or no control, such as fires, earthquakes and floods. To the extent that the Partnership's properties are leased in any substantial portion to a specific retail, industrial or office tenant, the financial failure of any such major tenant, resulting in the termination of the tenant's lease or non-payment of rentals due, would likely cause at least a temporary reduction in cash flow from any such property and might result in a decrease in the market value of that property.
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner or operator of real property may become liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous substances released on or in its property. Such laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release of such hazardous substances. If any such substances were found in or on any property owned by the Partnership, the Partnership could be exposed to liability and be required to incur substantial remediation costs. The presence of such substances or the failure to undertake proper remediation could adversely affect the ability to finance, refinance or dispose of such property.
On December 28, 1988, the Partnership acquired a 0.5% interest in JH Quince Orchard Partners (the "Affiliated Joint Venture"), a joint venture between the Partnership and John Hancock Realty Income Fund-II Limited Partnership ("Income Fund-II"). Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement of the Affiliated Joint Venture, the Partnership had the option, exercisable prior to December 31, 1990, to increase its investment and interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture to 50%. During the second quarter of 1989, the Partnership exercised such option and Income Fund-II transferred a 49.5% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture to the Partnership. The Partnership has since held a 50% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture.
On December 28, 1988, the Affiliated Joint Venture contributed 98% of the invested capital of, and acquired a 75% interest in, QOCC-1 Associates, an existing partnership which owns and operates a three-story office building and related land and improvements located in Gaithersburg, Maryland (the "Quince Orchard Corporate Center"). The partnership agreement of QOCC-1 Associates provides that the Affiliated Joint Venture shall contribute 95% of any required additional capital contributions. Of the cumulative total invested capital in QOCC-1 Associates at December 31, 1996, 97.55% has been contributed by the Affiliated Joint Venture. The Affiliated Joint Venture continues to hold a 75% interest in QOCC-1 Associates.
Item 1 - Business (continued)
The Quince Orchard Corporate Center is 100% occupied by Boehringer Mannheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc. under a ten-year lease which expires in February 2004. The tenant has two options under the lease agreement, one, to terminate the lease at the end of the seventy-sixth month of the lease, or June 2000, and, two, to extend the term of the lease for an additional five- year period.
On December 28, 1989, the Partnership acquired the Palms of Carrollwood Shopping Center, a neighborhood shopping center located in Tampa, Florida. Although real estate market conditions for retail properties in the market in which the Palms of Carrollwood Shopping Center is located have declined since the Partnership acquired the property, occupancy levels and rental rates have stabilized during recent years. However, market conditions remain competitive due to the new construction of retail space. The General Partner anticipates that retail market conditions will remain competitive during 1996 and, therefore, will continue to offer competitive leasing packages in order to attract new tenants as well as retain existing tenants at the property.
The Partnership acquired the following warehouse properties on the following dates. On July 17, 1991, the Partnership acquired Yokohama Tire Warehouse located in Louisville, Kentucky. On December 27, 1991, the Partnership acquired the Purina Mills Distribution Building located in St. Louis, Missouri. On March 6, 1992, the Partnership acquired the Allmetal Distribution Building located in Carrollton, Texas. On March 16, 1992, the Partnership acquired the Stone Container Building located in Cincinnati, Ohio. On March 27, 1992, the Partnership acquired the Business Center at Pureland located in Bridgeport, New Jersey.
The Partnership's warehouse properties are presently 100% occupied. The following table sets forth the names of the lessees at each of the Partnership's warehouse properties and the earliest date on which the applicable lessee's lease obligations may terminate.
The General Partner anticipates that the warehouse properties should provide the Partnership with stable income performance during 1997.
Item 1 - Business (continued)
Within the power accorded to the General Partner under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner contracted, effective as of January 1, 1992, with Hancock Realty Investors Incorporated ("HRI"), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company ("John Hancock"), to assist the General Partner in the performance of its management duties as enumerated in the Partnership Agreement. Effective May 28, 1993, HRI subcontracted with John Hancock to assist HRI in the performance of its duties as enumerated in the January 1, 1992 contract. The Partnership has not incurred any additional costs or expenses as a result of these agreements. The General Partner is further described in Item 10 of this Report.
Industry segment information has not been provided since the Partnership is engaged in only one industry segment.
Item 2
Item 2 - Properties
As of December 31, 1996 the Partnership held the following investments in its portfolio:
JH Quince Orchard Partners - -------------------------- On December 28, 1988, the Partnership acquired a 0.5% interest in JH Quince Orchard Partners (the "Affiliated Joint Venture"), a joint venture between the Partnership and John Hancock Realty Income Fund-II Limited Partnership ("Income Fund-II"). The Partnership had an initial 0.5% interest and Income Fund-II had an initial 99.5% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture. Pursuant to the partnership agreement of the Affiliated Joint Venture, the Partnership had the option, exercisable prior to December 31, 1990, to increase its investment and interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture to 50%. During the second quarter of 1989, the Partnership exercised such option and Income Fund-II transferred a 49.5% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture to the Partnership. The Partnership has since held a 50% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture.
On December 28, 1988, the Affiliated Joint Venture contributed 98% of the invested capital of, and acquired a 75% interest in, QOCC-1 Associates, an existing partnership that owns and operates the Quince Orchard Corporate Center, a three-story office building and related land and improvements located in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The partnership agreement of QOCC-1 Associates provides that the Affiliated Joint Venture shall contribute 95% of any required additional capital contributions. Of the cumulative total invested capital in QOCC-1 Associates at December 31, 1996, 97.55% has been contributed by the Affiliated Joint Venture. The Affiliated Joint Venture continues to hold a 75% interest in QOCC-1 Associates.
The average occupancy for the Quince Orchard Corporate Center for the year ended December 31, 1996 was 100%.
Item 2 - Properties (continued)
Palms of Carrollwood - -------------------- On December 28, 1989, the Partnership acquired the Palms of Carrollwood Shopping Center, located in Tampa, Florida, from a non-affiliated seller. The property contains approximately 161,000 rentable square feet, including approximately 10,000 square feet of office space, situated on a 15 acre site.
The average occupancy for the Palms of Carrollwood Shopping Center for the year ended December 31, 1996 was 80%. As of the date hereof, the property is 78% occupied.
Yokohama Tire Warehouse - ----------------------- On July 17, 1991, the Partnership acquired the Yokohama Tire Warehouse, located in Louisville, Kentucky, from a non-affiliated seller. The property is situated on 24 acres of land and contains an aggregate of 309,791 rentable square feet, of which 297,391 square feet is warehouse space and 12,400 square feet is office space.
The warehouse is 100% leased to the Yokohama Tire Corporation under a lease which expires on March 31, 2006. Under the terms of the lease agreement, the Yokohama Tire Corporation had the option to purchase the property for $10,228,173 on April 1, 1996, but did not choose to exercise such option. Yokohama Tire Corporation has additional options to purchase the property for $10,478,173 on April 1, 1999 and for $10,578,173 on April 1, 2001. In addition, the Yokohama Tire Corporation has the option, exercisable at any time during the term of the lease, to expand the square footage of the facility by any area of up to 220,000 square feet.
Purina Mills Distribution Building - ---------------------------------- On December 27, 1991, the Partnership acquired the Purina Mills Distribution Building, located in St. Louis, Missouri, from a non- affiliated seller. The property is situated on 7.3 acres of land and contains an aggregate of 126,400 rentable square feet, of which 114,800 is warehouse space and 11,600 square feet is office space.
Purina Mills Distribution Building is 100% leased to Purina Mills, Incorporated ("PMI") under a lease which expires on November 30, 2001. The lease contains a one-time option to terminate the lease on December 1, 1998 upon the payment of $240,815 to the Partnership. During 1993, PMI was sold by its parent company, BP Nutrition, Incorporated ("BPN"), and during March 1994, PMI assigned its right, title and interest in the lease to BPN. PMI remains fully liable to perform all of its obligations under the lease and BPN, as assignee, is also liable to perform all obligations under the lease. In addition, BP America, Incorporated, the parent company of BPN, has provided a guaranty to the Partnership for any monetary obligations under the lease. PMI has vacated the property and has subleased the space through November 1998.
Item 2 - Properties (continued)
Allmetal Distribution Building - ------------------------------ On March 6, 1992, the Partnership acquired the Allmetal Distribution Building, located in Carrollton, Texas, from a non-affiliated seller. The property is situated on 3 acres of land and contains an aggregate of 56,531 rentable square feet, of which 51,531 square feet is warehouse space and 5,000 square feet is office space.
The property is 100% leased to Allmetal, Inc. under a lease which expires on August 31, 1998.
Stone Container Building - ------------------------ On March 16, 1992, the Partnership acquired the Stone Container Building, located in Cincinnati, Ohio, from a non-affiliated seller. The property is situated on 5.5 acres of land.
The property is 100% leased to Stone Container Corporation under a lease which expires on December 31, 2011. During 1995, Stone Container Corporation requested approval to construct additional office space within the existing 80,000 square foot area of the building. The General Partner agreed to construct the additional office space in exchange for i) an increase in the tenant's rental rate in an amount equivalent to the total cost of constructing the additional office space, through the end of the existing term of the lease (December 2001) and ii) the tenant exercising its two five-year options to extend the term of the lease to December 2011. As a result, the net rentable square feet at the property increased by approximately 2,000 square feet. The building currently contains approximately 76,000 square feet of warehouse space and 6,000 square feet of office space.
Business Center at Pureland - --------------------------- On March 27, 1992, the Partnership acquired the Business Center at Pureland located in Bridgeport, New Jersey, from a non-affiliated seller. The property is situated on 10.5 acres of land and contains two buildings consisting of an aggregate of 119,651 rentable square feet of warehouse space.
One building (consisting of 60,535 sq. ft.) is 100% leased to Forbo Wallcoverings, Inc. under a lease which expires on December 31, 1998. The second building (consisting of 59,116 sq. ft.) is 100% leased to National Polystyrene Recycling Company, L.P. under a lease which expires on May 31, 2001.
The foregoing investments of the Partnership are further described in Item 7 of this Report.
Item 3
Item 3 - Legal Proceedings
In February 1996, a putative class action complaint was filed in the Superior Court in Essex County, New Jersey by a single investor in a limited partnership affiliated with the Partnership. The complaint named as defendants the Partnership, the General Partner, certain other Affiliates of the General Partner, and certain unnamed officers, directors, employees and agents of the named defendants.
The plaintiff sought unspecified damages stemming from alleged misrepresentations and omissions in the marketing and offering materials associated with the Partnership and two limited partnerships affiliated with the Partnership. The complaint alleged, among other things, that the marketing materials for the Partnership and the affiliated limited partnerships did not contain adequate risk disclosures.
On March 18, 1997, the court certified a class of investors who were original purchasers in the Partnership. The certification order should not be construed as suggesting that any member of the class is entitled to recover, or will recover, any amount in the action.
The General Partner believes the allegations are totally without merit and will continue to vigorously contest the action.
There are no other material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business of the Partnership, to which the Partnership is a party or to which any of its properties is subject.
Part II
Item 4
Item 4 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders of the Partnership during the fourth quarter of 1996.
Item 5
Item 5 - Market for the Partnership's Securities and Related Security Holder Matters
(a) Market Information
The Partnership's outstanding securities consist of 2,415,229 Units originally sold for $20 per Unit. The Units were offered and sold to the public during the period from February 17, 1989 to February 15, 1991. No established public market exists on which the Units may be traded. Consequently, holders of Units may not be able to liquidate their investments in the event of an emergency, or for any other reason. Additionally, the assignment or other transfer of Units would be subject to compliance with the minimum investment and suitability standards imposed by the Partnership and by applicable law, including state "Blue Sky" laws.
(B) Number of Security Holders Number of Number of Units record holders as of outstanding as of Title of Class December 31, 1996 December 31, 1996 -------------- ----------------- ----------------- Assignee Units 2,612 2,415,229
Item 5 - Market for the Partnership's Securities and Related Security Holder Matters (Continued)
(c) Dividend History and Restrictions
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership distributed cash in the aggregate amounts of $3,645,723 and $3,050,815, respectively, from Distributable Cash from Operations (as defined in the Partnership Agreement). These amounts were allocated 5% to the General Partner and 95% to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner, in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.
The following table reflects cash distributions made during the two year period ended December 31, 1996:
During 1996, the General Partner estimated that the Partnership's Cash from Operations for the year then ending would be sufficient to provide the Limited Partners with cash distributions at an annualized rate of 7%. Therefore, effective with the May 15, 1996 quarterly cash distribution, the Partnership increased cash distributions to Investors from an annualized rate of 6% to an annualized rate of 7%. The Partnership also made cash distributions to the John Hancock Limited Partner at an annualized rate of 7% during 1996. The General Partner anticipates that the Partnership's Cash from Operations will be sufficient to make cash distributions in 1997 comparable to those made in 1996. For a further discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of the Partnership see Item 7 of this Report.
Item 6
Item 6 - Selected Financial Data
The following table sets forth selected financial information regarding the Partnership's financial position and operating results for the five year period ended December 31, 1996. This information should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Financial Statements and Notes thereto, which are included in Items 7 and 8, respectively, of this Report.
(a) The ordinary tax income for the Partnership was allocated as follows:
(b) The actual ordinary tax income per Unit has not been presented because the actual ordinary tax income is allocated between tax-exempt and tax- paying entities based upon the respective number of Units held by each entity at December 31, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993 and 1992. The ordinary tax income per Unit for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993 and 1992 was computed by dividing the Investors' share of ordinary tax income by the number of Units outstanding during the year.
(c) Represents the actual cash distribution per Unit for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993 and 1992.
Item 7
Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued) - ------------------------------- During 1996, approximately $112,000 of cash generated from the Partnership's operations was used to fund non-recurring maintenance and repair expenses incurred at Palms of Carrollwood. The General Partner anticipates that the Partnership will incur non-recurring repair and maintenance expenses in the aggregate amount of approximately $157,000 at its properties during 1997. These expenses will be funded from the operations of the Partnership's properties and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Partnership's liquidity.
Cash in the amount of $3,645,723, generated from the Partnership's operations, was distributed to the General Partner, the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors during the year ended December 31, 1996. These amounts were distributed in accordance with the Partnership Agreement and were allocated as follows:
Investors $3,260,558 John Hancock Limited Partner 202,879 General Partner 182,286 ---------- Total $3,645,723 ==========
The General Partner anticipates that the Partnership will be able to make comparable distributions during each of the four quarters in 1997.
One of the anchor tenants at the Palms of Carrollwood vacated the property during June 1995. In July 1995, the General Partner secured a new anchor tenant to occupy this space under a lease commencing in November 1995. Three tenants' leases at the Palms of Carrollwood contain clauses that make reference to the situation in which the former anchor tenant ceases operations at the property. The following table sets forth the approximate amount of square feet leased by these three tenants, their applicable lease expiration dates and the applicable lease clauses relating to the replacement of the former anchor tenant:
Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued) - ------------------------------- The tenant leasing approximately 38,000 square feet reduced its rental payments effective November 28, 1995. In the General Partner's opinion, the replacement tenant is acceptable (in accordance with the terms of the tenant's lease) and, therefore, the tenant does not have the right to such a reduction. During March 1996, the General Partner filed a complaint against this tenant demanding payment in full of all unpaid rent. The General Partner will continue to use all available legal remedies in order to obtain collection of all outstanding amounts due under the lease agreement resulting from this rental reduction. The tenant leasing approximately 10,500 square feet, and whose lease is due to expire in January 2005, reduced its rental payments from May through August 1996. Subsequently, the General Partner negotiated an agreement pursuant to which all future rental payments will be made by the tenant at 100% of the contracted amount, but unpaid deficiencies in back rent from May through August 1996, in the aggregate amount of approximately $6,500, will be forgiven. In addition, the General Partner agreed that the tenant could vacate an adjacent space of approximately 1,300 square feet without further rental liability.
The other tenant leasing approximately 10,500 square feet made its scheduled rental payments through February 1997, at which time the lease expired.
With respect to the 38,000 square foot tenant mentioned above, the General Partner does not believe that any reduction in its rental payments resulting from the replacement of the original anchor tenant will have a materially adverse affect on the Partnership's liquidity.
In addition, the General Partner obtained legal judgments against two former tenants that vacated the Palms of Carrollwood and ceased paying rent prior to the expiration of their respective leases. During January 1996, the Partnership received approximately $7,100 from a bankruptcy court, representing the final settlement of the Partnership's judgment amount against one of these delinquent tenants. With respect to the other delinquent tenant, although the Partnership continues to pursue collection of a summary judgment in the amount of $57,000, based upon such tenant's financial condition, it is doubtful that the Partnership will be able to collect all, or any, of this amount.
As of the date hereof, the Palms of Carrollwood is 78% occupied. During the remainder of 1997, no significant leases are scheduled to expire. The General Partner will continue to offer competitive leasing packages in an effort to secure lease renewals with existing tenants as well as to secure new tenants for the remaining vacant space.
Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued) - ------------------------------- The Partnership's Affiliated Joint Venture property and warehouse properties are presently 100% occupied. The following table sets forth the names of the lessees at each of the Partnership's warehouse properties and the earliest date on which the applicable lessee's lease obligations may terminate.
The General Partner anticipates that the Partnership's warehouse properties and Affiliated Joint Venture investment should, in the aggregate, provide the Partnership with stable income performance during 1997.
During 1995, a tenant holding a lease for approximately 60,500 square feet, or 51%, of the Business Center at Pureland property, renewed its lease for an additional three-year term which commenced in January 1996. During 1996, the Partnership paid approximately $169,000 in leasing costs in connection with this renewal.
During 1995, Stone Container Corporation, the sole tenant at the Stone Container Building, requested approval from the Partnership to construct additional office space within the existing 80,000 square foot area of the building. The General Partner agreed to construct the additional office space in exchange for i) an increase in the tenant's rental rate in an amount equivalent to the total cost of constructing the additional office space through the end of the then existing term of the lease (December 2001) and ii) the tenant exercising its two five-year lease options to extend the term of the lease to December 2011. The General Partner incurred approximately $124,000 in construction costs in connection with this transaction during 1996.
Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued) - ------------------------------- The General Partner had the Stone Container Building property independently appraised during the first quarter of 1996. Based upon the appraiser's investigation and analysis, the property's market value was estimated to be approximately $2,100,000. Further, the appraiser estimated that, upon completion of the additional office space described above, the property's market value would be approximately $2,200,000. The carrying value of the Stone Container Building property of approximately $1,956,000 at December 31, 1996 was evaluated in comparison to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the independent appraisal and a recent internal appraisal. Based upon such evaluation, the General Partner determined that the property's estimated future undiscounted cash flows were expected to exceed its carrying value. Therefore, no impairment in value existed and a write- down in value was not required. The Partnership's cumulative investment in the property, before accumulated depreciation, is approximately $2,089,000.
The General Partner had the Allmetal Distribution Building property independently appraised during the second quarter of 1996. Based upon the appraiser's investigation and analysis, the property's market value was estimated to be approximately $1,750,000. The net book value of the Allmetal Distribution Building property of approximately $1,415,000 at December 31, 1996 was evaluated in comparison to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the independent appraisal and a recent internal appraisal. Based upon such evaluation, the General Partner determined that the property's estimated future undiscounted cash flows were expected to exceed its carrying value. Therefore, no impairment in value existed and a write-down in value was not required. The Partnership's cumulative investment in the property, before accumulated depreciation, is approximately $1,636,000.
The General Partner had the Yokohama Tire Warehouse property independently appraised during the third quarter of 1996. Based upon the appraiser's investigation and analysis, the property's market value was estimated to be approximately $10,000,000. The net book value of the Yokohama Tire Warehouse property of approximately $7,786,000 at December 31, 1996 was evaluated in comparison to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the independent appraisal and a recent internal appraisal. Based upon such evaluation, the General Partner determined that the property's estimated future undiscounted cash flows were expected to exceed its carrying value. Therefore, no impairment in value existed and a write-down in value was not required. The Partnership's cumulative investment in the property, before accumulated depreciation, is approximately $9,352,000.
The General Partner evaluated the carrying value of each of the Partnership's other properties and its investment in the Affiliated Joint Venture as of December 31, 1996 by comparing such carrying value to the related property's future undiscounted cash flows and the then most recent internal appraisal in order to determine whether a impairment in value existed. Based upon such evaluations, the General Partner determined that no impairment in values existed and, therefore, no write-downs were recorded as of December 31, 1996.
Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued) - ------------------------------- The General Partner will continue to conduct property valuations, using internal or independent appraisals, in order to determine whether an impairment in value exists on any of the Partnership's properties.
Results of Operations - --------------------- Average occupancy for the Partnership's investments was as follows:
Years ended December 31, 1996 1995 1994 ---- ---- ---- Palms of Carrollwood Shopping Center 80% 76% 80% Yokohama Tire Warehouse 100% 100% 100% Purina Mills Distribution Building 100% 100% 100% Allmetal Distribution Building 100% 100% 100% Stone Container Building 100% 100% 100% Business Center at Pureland 100% 100% 100% Quince Orchard Corporate Center (Affiliated Joint Venture) 100% 100% 83%
Results of Operations - 1996 compared with 1995
Net income for the year ended December 31, 1996 was $2,616,017 as compared to net income of $2,776,632 in 1995.
Rental income for the year ended December 31, 1996 increased by $202,305, or 6%, as compared to 1995. This increase is primarily due to increases in rental income at the Palms of Carrollwood, Yokohama Tire Warehouse, Allmetal Distribution Building, Stone Container Building and Business Center at Pureland properties. Rental income increased at the Palms of Carrollwood property primarily due to the fact that a new anchor tenant at the property pays a rental rate greater than that which the former anchor tenant paid. In addition, a 4% increase in average occupancy at the property between periods contributed to the increase in rental income. However, this increase in rental income at the Palms of Carrollwood was partially offset by another anchor tenant at the property reducing its rental payments, as described above. Increases in the rental rates paid by the sole tenants at the Yokohama Tire Warehouse, Allmetal Distribution Building and Stone Container Building properties and by one of the tenants at the Business Center at Pureland property, in accordance with the terms of their leases, resulted in increased rental income from these properties during 1996 as compared to 1995. Rental income from the Purina Mills Distribution Building was consistent between the years.
The Partnership's allocation of income from the Affiliated Joint Venture for the year ended December 31, 1996 decreased by $53,210, or 7%, as compared to 1995. This decrease is due the manner in which the partnership agreement of QOCC-1 Associates calculates the income allocation to its partners. (see Note 6 included in Item 8
Item 8 - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
The response to this Item appears beginning on page of this Report. The financial statements of QOCC-1 Associates, an investee of the Registrant, as of and for the years ending December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 are included herewith.

Item 13
Item 13 - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
See Note 4 of the Notes to the Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report for a description of certain transactions and related amounts payable by the Partnership to the General Partner and its Affiliates during 1996, 1995 and 1994.
The Partnership provides indemnification to the General Partner and its Affiliates for acts or omissions of the General Partner or its Affiliates performed in good faith on behalf of the Partnership, subject to certain specified exceptions, as described in the following paragraph.
The Limited Partnership Agreement provides that neither the General Partner nor any Affiliate of the General Partner shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages to any of the Partners or the Partnership for any act or omission of the General Partner or such Affiliate in good faith on behalf of the Partnership within the scope of the authority granted to the General Partner by the Partnership Agreement and in the best interest of the Partnership, except for acts or omissions constituting fraud, negligence, misconduct or breach of fiduciary duty. The General Partner and its Affiliates performing services on behalf of the Partnership shall be entitled to indemnity from the Partnership for any loss, damage, or claim by reason of any act performed or omitted to be performed by the General Partner or such Affiliates in good faith on behalf of the Partnership and in a manner within the scope of the authority granted to the General Partner by the Partnership Agreement and in the best interest of the Partnership, except that they shall not be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage, or claim incurred by reason of fraud, negligence, misconduct, or breach of fiduciary duty. Any indemnity shall be provided out of and to the extent of Partnership assets only.
In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner and its Affiliates (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) are entitled to the following types of compensation, fees, profits/(losses), expense reimbursements and distributions:
A reimbursement for Acquisition Expenses (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) incurred by the General Partner or its Affiliates was payable at cost to the General Partner or its Affiliates. The Partnership completed its property acquisitions on March 27, 1992 and, therefore, did not pay any such reimbursements during the years ended 1996, 1995 or 1994.
Item 13 - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions (continued) An Affiliate of the General Partner may receive a Property Management Fee for providing property management services for the Partnership's properties. The Partnership is obligated to pay a fee equal to the amount customarily charged in arms-length transactions by other entities rendering comparable services for comparable properties in the localities where the Partnership's properties are located but in no event may such fee exceed 6% of the gross receipts of the property under management. To date, no Affiliate of the General Partner has provided property management services to the Partnership. Therefore, the Partnership did not pay any such fees during the years ended 1996, 1995 or 1994.
The General Partner and its Affiliates are also entitled to Reimbursement for Expenses relating to the administrative services necessary to the prudent operation of the Partnership, such as legal, accounting, computer, transfer agent and other services. The amounts charged to the Partnership for such administrative services may not exceed the lesser of the General Partner's or such Affiliate's costs or 90% of those which the Partnership would be required to pay to independent parties for comparable services in the same geographic area. The Partnership reimbursed the General Partner or its Affiliates for $179,330, $156,119 and $121,196 of such expenses during the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
A Subordinated Disposition Fee (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) for selling properties is payable to the General Partner in the amount of 3% of the sales price of each property sold. However, no such Subordinated Disposition Fee may be paid to the General Partner unless and until the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner have received a return of their total Invested Capital (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) plus the Cumulative Return on Investment (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of 12% per annum for all fiscal years ended prior to the date of payment. Such Subordinated Disposition Fee may not exceed 50% of the competitive real estate commissions in the area where the property is located or, together with any other brokerage commission payable to or by any other person, exceed 6% of the contract sales price of such property. The Partnership did not pay any such fees during the years ended 1996, 1995 or 1994.
In accordance with Section 8 of the Partnership Agreement (as described more fully in Note 3 to the Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report), 5% of Distributable Cash from Operations is distributable to the General Partner and the remaining 95% in the following order of priority: first, to the Investors in an amount sufficient to provide a non- cumulative, non-compounded cash return equal to 7% per annum on their Invested Capital; second, to the John Hancock Limited Partner in an amount sufficient to provide a non-cumulative, non-compounded cash return equal to 7% per annum on its Invested Capital; and third, to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner in proportion to their respective capital contributions. The General Partner's share of Distributable Cash from Operations was $192,201 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and $152,541 for each of the two years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the John Hancock Limited Partner was entitled to a share of Distributable Cash from Operations for the year ended December 31, 1996. The John Hancock Limited Partner's share for 1996 was $270,506. Distributable Cash from Operations was insufficient to provide the John Hancock Limited Partner with such a distribution during the either of the years ended 1995 or 1994.
Item 13 - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions (continued)
A Share of Cash from Sales or Financings may be distributed to the General Partner and the John Hancock Limited Partner. Cash from Sales or Financings are distributable in accordance with Section 8 of the Partnership Agreement (as described more fully in Note 3 to the Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report). No Sales or Financings have occurred during the years ended 1996, 1995 or 1994 and, therefore, no such distributions were made.
A Share of the Partnership's Profits or Losses for tax purposes is allocable to the General Partner and to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner. Such allocation generally approximates, insofar as practicable, their percentage share of Distributable Cash from Operations and of Cash from Sales or Financings. The General Partner will generally be allocated 1% of Partnership Losses for tax purposes, and the John Hancock Limited Partner will be allocated tax losses associated with the Partnership's sales commissions funded by the John Hancock Limited Partner's Capital Contributions. The General Partner's Share of such Profits or Losses were profits of $189,088, $178,928 and $168,666 during the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the John Hancock Limited Partner was allocated $280,404 of profits during the year ended December 31, 1996. The John Hancock Limited Partner was not allocated any such profits or losses during either of the years ended 1995 or 1994.
The following table reflects all compensation, fees, profits/(losses), expense reimbursements and distributions from the Partnership to the General Partner and/or its Affiliates for the three years ended December 31, 1996:
Years Ended December 31, 1996 1995 1994 ---- ---- ---- Operating Expenses $179,330 $156,119 $121,196 General Partner Share of Distributable Cash from Operations 192,201 152,541 152,541 John Hancock Limited Partner's share of Distributable Cash from Operations 270,506 - - General Partner Share of Profits or Losses for tax purposes 189,088 178,928 168,666 John Hancock Limited Partner's share of Profits or Losses for tax purposes 280,404 - -

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of John Hancock Realty Income Fund III Limited Partnership as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of operations, partners' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the index at Item 14(a). 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 audits. The financial statements of QOCC-1 Associates (a limited partnership in which JH Quince Orchard Partners, a joint venture in which the Partnership has a 50% interest, has a 75% interest) have been audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us; insofar as our opinion on the financial statements relates to data included for QOCC-1 Associates, it is based solely on their reports.
We conducted our audits 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 audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of John Hancock Realty Income Fund-III Limited Partnership at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization of Partnership --------------------------- John Hancock Realty Income Fund-III Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") was formed under the Massachusetts Uniform Limited Partnership Act on November 4, 1988. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership consisted of John Hancock Realty Equities, Inc. (the "General Partner"), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company; John Hancock Realty Funding, Inc. (the "John Hancock Limited Partner"); John Hancock Income Fund-III Assignor, Inc. (the "Assignor Limited Partner"); and 2,612 Unitholders (the "Investors"). The Assignor Limited Partner holds five Investor Limited Partnership Interests for its own account and 2,415,229 Assignee Units (the "Units"), representing economic and certain other rights attributable to Investor Limited Partnership Interests in the Partnership, for the benefit of the Investors. The John Hancock Limited Partner, the Assignor Limited Partner and the Investors are collectively referred to as the Limited Partners. The General Partner and the Limited Partners are collectively referred to as the Partners. The initial capital of the Partnership was $2,100, representing capital contributions of $1,000 from the General Partner, $1,000 from the John Hancock Limited Partner, and $100 from the Assignor Limited Partner. The Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") authorized the issuance of up to 5,000,000 Units at $20 per unit. During the offering period, which terminated on February 15, 1991, 2,415,229 Units were sold and the John Hancock Limited Partner made additional capital contributions of $3,863,366. There were no changes in the number of Units outstanding subsequent to the termination of the offering period.
The Partnership is engaged solely in the business of acquiring, holding for investment and disposing of existing income-producing retail, industrial and office properties on an all-cash basis, free and clear of mortgage indebtedness. Although the Partnership's properties were acquired and are held free and clear of mortgage indebtedness, the Partnership may incur mortgage indebtedness under certain circumstances as specified in the Partnership Agreement.
The latest date on which the Partnership is due to terminate is December 31, 2019, unless it is sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement. It is expected that, in the ordinary course of the Partnership's business, the properties of the Partnership will be disposed of, and the Partnership terminated, before December 31, 2019.
JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND-III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies ------------------------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
The Partnership maintains its accounting records and recognizes rental revenue on the accrual basis.
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. These investments are recorded at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. Restricted cash represents funds restricted for tenant security deposits and has been designated as current or long-term based upon the term of the related lease agreement.
Investments in property are recorded at cost less any property write- downs for impairment in value. Cost includes the initial purchase price of the property plus acquisition and legal fees, other miscellaneous acquisition costs, and the cost of significant improvements.
Depreciation has been provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the various assets: thirty years for the buildings and five years for related improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Investment in joint venture is recorded using the equity method.
Acquisition fees for the joint venture investment have been deferred and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of thirty-one and a half years. Other deferred acquisition fees are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of eighty-four months. Capitalized tenant improvements and lease commissions are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases to which they relate.
No provision for income taxes has been made in the financial statements as such taxes are the responsibility of the individual partners and not of the Partnership.
The net income per Unit for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 is calculated by dividing the Investors' share of net income by the number of Units outstanding during each year.
JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND-III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) ------------------------------- In the fourth quarter of 1995, the Partnership adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" (the "Statement 121"). Statement 121 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts. Statement 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived assets that are expected to be disposed of. The adoption of Statement 121 had no effect on the Partnership's financial statements at December 31, 1996.
3. The Partnership Agreement ------------------------- Neither the General Partner nor any affiliate of the General Partner shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages to any of the Partners or the Partnership for any act or omission of the General Partner or such affiliate in good faith on behalf of the Partnership within the scope of the authority granted to the General Partner by the Partnership Agreement and in the best interest of the Partnership, except for acts or omissions constituting fraud, negligence, misconduct or breach of fiduciary duty. The General Partner and its affiliates performing services on behalf of the Partnership shall be entitled to indemnity from the Partnership for any loss, damage, or claim by reason of any act performed or omitted to be performed by the General Partner or such affiliates in good faith on behalf of the Partnership and in a manner within the scope of the authority granted to the General Partner by the Partnership Agreement and in the best interest of the Partnership, except that they shall not be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage, or claim incurred by reason of fraud, negligence, misconduct, or breach of fiduciary duty. Any indemnity shall be provided out of and to the extent of Partnership assets only. The Partnership shall not advance any funds to the General Partner or its affiliates for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any legal action initiated against the General Partner or its affiliates by a Limited Partner in the Partnership.
Distributable Cash from Operations (defined in the Partnership Agreement) is distributed 5% to the General Partner and the remaining 95% in the following order of priority: first, to the Investors until they receive a 7% non-cumulative, non-compounded annual cash return on their Invested Capital (defined in the Partnership Agreement) second, to the John Hancock Limited Partner until it receives a 7% non-cumulative, non-compounded annual cash return on its Invested Capital; and third, to the Investors and the John Hancock Limited Partner in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions (defined in the Partnership Agreement). However, any Distributable Cash from Operations which is available as a result of a reduction in working capital reserves funded by Capital Contributions of the Investors will be distributed 100% to the Investors.
JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND-III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
3. The Partnership Agreement (continued) ------------------------- Profits for tax purposes from the normal operations of the Partnership for each fiscal year are allocated to the Partners in the same amounts as Distributable Cash from Operations for that year. If such profits are less than Distributable Cash from Operations for any year, they are allocated in proportion to the amounts of Distributable Cash from Operations for that year. If such profits are greater than Distributable Cash from Operations for any year, they are allocated 5% to the General Partner and 95% to the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors, with the allocation made between the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions. Losses for tax purposes from the normal operations of the Partnership are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors, with the allocation made between the John Hancock Limited Partner and the Investors in proportion to their respective Capital Contributions. However, all tax aspects of the Partnership's payment of the sales commissions from the Capital Contributions made by the John Hancock Limited Partner are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the John Hancock Limited Partner, and not to the Investors. Depreciation deductions are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the Investors, and not to the John Hancock Limited Partner.
4. Transactions with the General Partner and Affiliates ---------------------------------------------------- Fees, commissions and other costs incurred or paid by the General Partner or its Affiliates during the three years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, and to which the General Partner or its Affiliates are entitled to reimbursement from the Partnership were $179,330, $156,119 and $121,196, respectively.
The Partnership provides indemnification to the General Partner and its Affiliates for any acts or omissions of the General Partner or such Affiliate in good faith on behalf of the Partnership, except for acts or omissions constituting fraud, negligence, misconduct or breach of fiduciary duty. The General Partner believes that this indemnification applies to the class action complaint described in Note 9. Accordingly, the Partnership has accrued $41,475 for the year ended December 31, 1996, which amount is included in the Statements of Operations and represents the Partnership's share of costs incurred by the General Partner and its affiliates relating to the class action complaint.
JOHN HANCOCK REALTY INCOME FUND-III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Massachusetts Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
4. Transactions with the General Partner and Affiliates (continued) ---------------------------------------------------- Accounts payable to affiliates represents amounts due to the General Partner or its Affiliates for various services provided to the Partnership, including amounts to indemnify the General Partner or its Affiliates for claims incurred by them in connection with their actions as General Partner of the Partnership. All amounts accrued by the Partnership to indemnify the General Partner or its affiliates for legal fees incurred by them shall not be paid unless or until all conditions set forth in the Partnership Agreement for such payment have been fulfilled.
The General Partner serves in a similar capacity for two other affiliated real estate limited partnerships.
5. Investment in Property ---------------------- Investment in property at cost, less any write-downs, consists of managed, fully-operating, commercial real estate as follows: December 31, 1996 1995 ---- ----
Palms of Carrollwood Shopping Center $10,930,578 $10,930,578 Yokohama Tire Warehouse 9,352,221 9,352,221 Purina Mills Distribution Building 4,203,406 4,203,406 Allmetal Distribution Building 1,636,050 1,636,050 Stone Container Building 2,088,804 2,088,804 Business Center at Pureland 5,142,016 5,142,016 ----------- --------- $33,353,075 $33,353,075 =========== ===========
The real estate market is cyclical in nature and is materially affected by general economic trends and economic conditions in the market where a property is located. As a result, determination of real estate values involves subjective judgments. These judgments are based on current market conditions and assumptions related to future market conditions. These assumptions involve, among other things, the availability of capital, occupancy rates, rental rates, interest rates and inflation rates. Amounts ultimately realized from each property may vary significantly from the market values presented and the differences could be material. Actual market values of real estate can be determined only by negotiation between the parties in a sales transaction.
The Partnership leases its properties to non-affiliated tenants primarily under long-term operating leases.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
5. Investment in Property (continued) ---------------------- At December 31, 1996, future minimum rentals on non-cancelable leases relating to the above properties were as follows:

6. Investment in Joint Venture --------------------------- On December 28, 1988, the Partnership invested $75,000 to acquire a 0.5% interest in JH Quince Orchard Partners (the "Affiliated Joint Venture"), a joint venture between the Partnership and John Hancock Realty Income Fund-II Limited Partnership ("Income Fund-II"). The Partnership had an initial 0.5% interest and Income Fund-II had an initial 99.5% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture. Pursuant to the partnership agreement of the Affiliated Joint Venture, the Partnership had the option, exercisable prior to December 31, 1990, to increase its investment and interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture to 50%. During the second quarter of 1989, the Partnership exercised such option and Income Fund-II transferred a 49.5% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture to the Partnership for cash in the aggregate amount of $7,325,672. The Partnership has held a 50% interest in the Affiliated Joint Venture since the second quarter of 1989.
On December 28, 1988, the Affiliated Joint Venture contributed 98% of the invested capital of, and acquired a 75% interest in, QOCC-1 Associates, an existing partnership which owns and operates the Quince Orchard Corporate Center, a three-story office building and related land and improvements located in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The partnership agreement of QOCC-1 Associates provides that the Affiliated Joint Venture contribute 95% of any required additional capital contributions. Of the cumulative total invested capital in QOCC-1 Associates at December 31, 1996, 97.55% has been contributed by the Affiliated Joint Venture. The Affiliated Joint Venture continues to hold a 75% interest in QOCC-1 Associates.

6. Investment in Joint Venture (continued) --------------------------- Net cash flow from QOCC-1 Associates is distributed in the following order of priority: (i) to the payment of all debts and liabilities of QOCC-1 Associates and to fund reserves deemed reasonably necessary; ii), to the partners in proportion to their respective invested capital until each has received a 9% return on invested capital and iii) the balance, if any, to the partners in proportion to their interests. During 1996, the partners received a return on invested capital in excess of 9%. Prior to 1996, QOCC-1 Associates had not provided the partners with a return in excess of 9% on their invested capital
Income and gains of QOCC-1 Associates, other than the gains allocated arising from a sale other similar event with respect to the Quince Orchard Corporate Center, are allocated in the following order of priority: i) to the partners who are entitled to receive a distribution of net cash flow, pro rata in the same order and amounts as such distributions are made and ii) the balance, if any, to the partners, pro rata in accordance with their interests.
Summarized financial information for QOCC-1 Associates is as follows: Financial Position at December 31, 1996 1995 ---- ---- Current assets $152,573 $168,756 Deferred expenses, net 1,835,645 2,140,529 Other assets 1,724,493 1,623,912 Investment in property, net 12,304,945 12,644,363 ------------ ----------- Total assets $16,017,656 $16,577,560 =========== ===========

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
9. Contingencies ------------- In February 1996, a putative class action complaint was filed in the Superior Court in Essex County, New Jersey by a single investor in a limited partnership affiliated with the Partnership. The complaint named as defendants the Partnership, the General Partner, certain other Affiliates of the General Partner, and certain unnamed officers, directors, employees and agents of the named defendants. The plaintiff sought unspecified damages stemming from alleged misrepresentations and omissions in the marketing and offering materials associated with the Partnership and two limited partnerships affiliated with the Partnership. On March 18, 1997, the court certified a class of investors who were original purchasers in the Partnership.
The Partnership provides indemnification to the General Partner and its Affiliates for acts or omissions of the General Partner in good faith on behalf of the Partnership, except for acts or omissions constituting fraud, negligence, misconduct or breach of fiduciary duty. The General Partner believes that this indemnification applies to the class action complaint described above. Accordingly, the Partnership has accrued $41,475 for the year ended December 31, 1996, which amount is included in the Statement of Operations and represents the Partnership's share of costs incurred by the General Partner and its Affiliates relating to the class action complaint.
At the present time, the General Partner can not estimate the impact, if any, of the potential indemnification claims on the Partnership's Financial Statements, taken as a whole. Accordingly, no provision for any liability which could result from the eventual outcome of these matters has been made in the accompanying financial statements.
10. Subsequent Events ----------------- On February 14, 1997, the Partnership made a cash distribution in the aggregate amount of $961,006, based on Distributable Cash from Operations for the year ended December 31, 1996 less amounts previously distributed. This amount was allocated 5%, or $48,050 to the General Partner and 95%, or $912,956 to the Limited Partners, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. Of the amount distributed to the Limited Partners, the Investors received $845,330 and the John Hancock Limited Partner received $67,626. Such amounts represent a 7% annualized return on Limited Partners Invested Capital.

The building was acquired in December 1988. The partnership conducts its rental operations under a lease agreement with one tenant.
Use of Estimates ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Rental Property --------------- Rental property is carried at cost. Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives by use of the straight-line method.
Cash Equivalents ---------------- For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the partnership considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.
Rental Income ------------- Rental income is recognized as rentals become due. For instances in which rent concession periods are involved, rental income is recognized using the straight-line method over the term of the lease, which includes the rent concession period. The amount applicable to the rent concession is recorded as a deferred asset against which future collections are applied. Rental payments received in advance are deferred until earned. The lease between the partnership and the tenant of the property is an operating lease.
