ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The registrant, First Capital Income and Growth Fund-Series XII (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized in 1987 under the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Illinois. The Partnership sold 1,000,000 Limited Partnership Assignee Units (the "Units") to the public from May 1987 to November 1988, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (Registration No. 33-12269). Capitalized terms used in this report have the same meaning as those terms have in the Partnership's Registration Statement.
The business of the Partnership is to invest primarily in existing, income- producing real estate, such as shopping centers, office buildings, apartments, warehouses, or any one or more of these categories. From November 1987 to March 1991, the Partnership: 1) made three real property investments; 2) purchased 50% interests in three joint ventures, a 75% interest in one joint venture and a 25% interest in a separate joint venture which were each formed with Affiliated partnerships for the purpose of acquiring a 100% interest in certain real property and 3) purchased 50% interests in four separate joint ventures which were each formed with Affiliated partnerships for the purpose of acquiring a preferred majority interest in certain real property. All of these joint ventures, prior to dissolution, are operated under the common control of First Capital Financial Corporation (the "General Partner"). Through December 31, 1996 the Partnership, with its respective joint venture partners, has dissolved as a result of the sale and/or disposition of: 1) one 50% and one 75% interest in joint ventures that had 100% interests in real property; 2) all four 50% joint ventures that had preferred majority interests in real property and 3) one real property investment.
Property management services for the Partnership's real estate investments are provided by Affiliates of the General Partner for fees calculated as a percentage of gross rents received from each of the Partnership's properties.
The real estate business is highly competitive. The results of operations of the Partnership will depend upon the availability of suitable tenants, real estate market conditions and general economic conditions which may impact the success of these tenants. Properties owned by the Partnership frequently compete for tenants with similar properties owned by others.
As of March 1, 1997, there were 16 employees at the Partnership's properties for on-site property maintenance and administration.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The ordinary business of the Partnership is expected to pass through its life cycle in three phases: (i) the Offering of Units and Investment in Properties; (ii) the operation of properties and (iii) the sale or other disposition of properties.
The Partnership commenced the Offering of Units on May 8, 1987 and began operations on June 9, 1987 after reaching the required minimum subscription level. On November 22, 1988, the Offering was Terminated upon the sale of 1,000,000 Units. From November 1987 to March 1991, the Partnership: 1) made three real property investments; 2) purchased 50% interests in three joint ventures, a 75% interest in one joint venture and a 25% interest in a separate joint venture which were each formed with Affiliated partnerships for the purpose of acquiring a 100% interest in certain real property and 3) purchased 50% interests in four separate joint ventures which were each formed with Affiliated partnerships for the purpose of acquiring a preferred majority interest in certain real property.
One of the Partnership's objectives is to dispose of its properties when market conditions allow for the achievement of the maximum possible sales price. In 1993 the Partnership, in addition to being in the operation of properties phase, entered the disposition phase of its life cycle. During the disposition phase of the Partnership's life cycle, comparisons of operating results are complicated due to the timing and effect of property sales and dispositions. Partnership operating results are generally expected to decline as real property interests are sold or disposed of since the Partnership no longer receives income generated from such real property interests. Through December 31, 1996 the Partnership, with its respective joint venture partners, has dissolved as a result of the sale and/or disposition of: 1) one 50% and one 75% interest in joint ventures that had 100% interests in real property; 2) all four 50% interests in joint ventures with preferred majority interests in real property and 3) one real property interest.
As disclosed in the Partnership's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 1995, the Partnership was faced with significant financial obligations during 1996. In addition, operating results were affected by industry issues of its tenants, as well as unique matters related to its individual properties. During 1996, the General Partner was successful in selling two of the three properties whose mortgage debt was maturing during 1996 and was able to extend until December 31, 1997 the maturity date of the other maturing mortgage loan. The Partnership was also able to resolve some of the unique issues facing its properties through successful tenanting of those properties and the sale of two of the properties. During 1996 each of the Partnership's remaining properties experienced improved operating results as compared to the previous year. Notwithstanding this, the future operations of the Partnership's properties still face uncertainty based on regional market issues, individual property matters and industry issues and loan maturities.
OPERATIONS The table below is a recap of certain operating results of each of the Partnership's properties for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994. The discussion following the table should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing in this report.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--(CONTINUED)
(a) Excludes certain income and expense items which are either not directly related to individual property operating results such as interest income, interest expense on the Partnership's Front-End Fees loan and general and administrative expenses or are related to properties disposed of by the Partnership prior to the periods under comparison. (b) Property net (loss) income excludes provisions for value impairment which were included in the Statements of Income and Expenses for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 (see Note 12 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information). (c) These properties were sold during 1996. The gains realized on the sales of these properties are excluded from the property net income reported above (see Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information). (d) These properties were sold during 1994. The gains/losses realized on the sales of these properties are excluded from property net income / loss reported above (see Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information).
COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, Net results for the Partnership changed from a (loss) of $(13,386,400) for the year ended December 31, 1995 to income of $2,155,600 for the year ended December 31, 1996. The change in results was primarily due to the provisions for value impairment which contributed $12,700,000 to the net (loss) in 1995. In addition, the change was due to the gain of $816,100 and $160,200 from the sales of Sentry West and Equitable, respectively, during 1996.
Net results, exclusive of provisions for value impairment, gain on sale of properties and the operating results of the sold properties, changed from a (loss) of $(863,900) for the year ended December 31, 1995 to income of $24,500 for the year ended December 31, 1996. The change in results was primarily due to: 1) improved operating results at all of the Partnership remaining properties, 2) decreased interest expense on the Partnership's Front-End Fees loan, due to a decrease in the variable interest rate, 3) increased interest income, primarily due to an increase in the funds available for short-term investments which was primarily the result of the receipt of sales proceeds during the second half of 1996 and 4) decreased general and administrative expenses, primarily due to lower data processing and printing and mailing costs.
The following comparative discussion includes the results from the Partnership's five remaining property investments.
Rental revenues increased by $384,200 or 3.2% for the year ended December 31, 1996 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1995. The primary factors which contributed to the increase were higher rental revenues at Meidinger Tower, which was primarily due an increase in tenant expense reimbursements and the receipt in 1996 of a one-time lease settlement fee and Prentice Plaza, primarily due to an increase in tenant expense reimbursements and base rents, which was due to the increase in average occupancy and average base rental rate charged to new and renewing tenants.
Interest expense on the Partnership's mortgage loans decreased by $280,300 for the year ended December 31, 1996 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1995. The decrease was primarily due to: 1) a lower average interest rate on Meidinger's variable rate mortgage loan; 2) a decrease in the interest rate on the fixed-rate mortgage loan collateralized by Regency, as further discussed below and 3) lower average outstanding balances resulting from principal payments on Deerfield Mall and Regency.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $146,500 for the years under comparison. The decrease was primarily the result of the effects of provisions for value impairment recorded during the year ended December 31, 1995 which reduced the depreciable bases of Deerfield Mall, Meidinger Tower, 1800 Sherman and Regency.
Real estate tax expense decreased by $142,200 for the years under comparison. The decrease was primarily due to the successful appeal in 1996 for the reduction of the assessed value of 1800 Sherman for the 1995 tax year and the 1996 receipt of a refund following a successful appeal of the assessed value of Prentice Plaza for the 1989 to 1994 tax years.
Repairs and maintenance expense increased by $116,900 for the year ended December 31, 1996 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1995. The property contributing most significantly to the increase was Meidinger Tower, primarily due to a 7% increase in the janitorial service contract which was the result of an increase in the contractor's wages and the costs of supplies.
Property operating expenses increased by $107,700 for the years under comparison as a result of an increase at Meidinger Tower which was primarily due to higher utility, security and personnel costs as well as an increase in property management and leasing fees resulting from the increase in rental revenues. Also contributing to the increase was an increase in security costs at Prentice Plaza.
COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, Net (loss) for the Partnership decreased by $1,355,600 for the year ended December 31, 1995 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. The effects of the sales of certain Partnership properties during 1994 and provisions for value impairment recognized in 1995 and 1994 had a significant impact on the comparison of net (loss) for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994. The Partnership recorded provisions for value impairment of $12,700,000 during 1995. During 1994, the Partnership recorded provisions for value impairment of $13,250,000 and sold the three remaining office buildings at Sentry East as well as Park Central. Properties sold during 1994 accounted for net income (including operating results and the net gain on sale of properties) of $160,800. For further information on the sales see Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.
Excluding the effects on net income of the properties sold and provisions for value impairment, net (loss) for the year ended December 31, 1995 decreased by $968,700 when compared to the net (loss) for the year ended December 31, 1994. The primary factor contributing to the decrease in net (loss) was improved operating results at all of the Partnership's remaining property interests except 1800 Sherman. In addition, interest income increased due to an increase in the rates and funds available for short-term investments. Partially offsetting the decrease in net (loss) was an increase in interest expense on the Partnership's Front-End Fees Loan due to an increase in the variable interest rate.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--(CONTINUED)
For purposes of the following comparative discussion, the operating results of Park Central and Sentry East have been excluded.
Rental revenues increased by $1,610,900 or 10% for the year ended December 31, 1995 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in the average occupancy rates at all of the Partnership's properties. This factor, along with an increase in the average base rental rate charged to new and renewing tenants, contributed to a total increase for the Partnership of $974,300 in base rents. Another significant factor was a net increase in tenant expense reimbursements at the Partnership's properties, particularly at Meidinger Tower.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $223,100 for the years under comparison. The decrease was primarily the result of the effects of provisions for value impairment recorded for several Partnership properties, which reduced depreciable bases.
Interest expense on the Partnership's mortgage loans increased by $568,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. The increase was primarily due to increases in the variable interest rates on the mortgage loans collateralized by Meidinger Tower, Equitable and Sentry West together with a fixed interest rate on the new mortgage loan collateralized by Deerfield Mall which was higher than the 1994 variable interest rate on its prior mortgage loan.
Property operating expense increased by $191,600 for the years under comparison. Contributing factors were increases in property management and leasing fees at all of the Partnership's properties, except for Deerfield Mall as a result of the increase in rental revenues, and in fees for professional services at Sentry West, Equitable and Prentice Plaza. Partially offsetting the increase in property operating expense was decreased professional service fees at Deerfield Mall and 1800 Sherman.
To increase and/or maintain occupancy levels at the Partnership's properties, the General Partner, through its Affiliated asset and property management groups, continues to take the following actions: 1) implementation of marketing programs, including hiring of third-party leasing agents or providing on-site leasing personnel, advertising, direct mail campaigns and development of building brochures; 2) early renewal of existing tenant leases and addressing any expansion needs these tenants may have; 3) promotion of local broker events and networking with local brokers; 4) networking with national level retailers; 5) cold-calling other businesses and tenants in the market area; and 6) providing rental concessions or competitively pricing rental rates depending on market conditions.
The rate of inflation has remained relatively stable during the years under comparison and has had a minimal impact on the operating results of the Partnership. The nature of various tenant lease clauses protects the Partnership, to some extent, from increases in the rate of inflation. Certain of the lease clauses provide for the following: (1) annual rent increases based on the Consumer Price Index or graduated rental increases; (2) percentage rentals at shopping centers, for which the Partnership receives as additional rent a percentage of a tenant's sales over predetermined amounts and (3) total or partial tenant reimbursement of property operating expenses (e.g., common area maintenance, real estate taxes, etc.).
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES One of the Partnership's objectives is to dispose of its properties when market conditions allow for the achievement of the maximum possible sales price. In the interim, the Partnership continues to manage and maintain it properties. Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) is generally not equal to net income or cash flows as defined by GAAP, since certain items are treated differently under the Partnership Agreement than under GAAP. Management believes that to facilitate a clear understanding of the Partnerships operations, an analysis of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) should be examined in conjunction with an analysis of net income or cash flows as defined by GAAP. The second table in Select Financial Data includes a reconciliation of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) to cash flow provided by operating activities as determined by GAAP. Such amounts are not indicative of actual distributions to Partners and should not be considered as an alternative to the results disclosed in the Statements of Income and Expenses and Statements of Cash Flows.
The increase in Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of $569,500 for the year ended December 31, 1996 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, was primarily due to the change in net income (loss) previously discussed (exclusive of depreciation, amortization, provisions for value impairment and the gains on the sales of Sentry West and Equitable) and the absence of principal payments in 1996 on the mortgage loan collateralized by Meidinger Tower.
The net increase in the Partnership's cash position of $1,917,200 for the year December 31, 1996 was primarily the result of the net cash provided by operating activities and the net proceeds received from the sales of Sentry West and Equitable exceeding the increases in escrow deposits, investments in debt securities, regularly scheduled principal payments made on Partnership's mortgage loans payable and expenditures made for capital and tenant improvements and leasing costs. Liquid assets (including cash, cash equivalents and investments in debt securities) of the Partnership as of December 31, 1996 were comprised of amounts held for working capital purposes.
Net cash provided by operating activities continues to be a primary source of funds for the Partnership. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $258,100 for the year ended December 31, 1996 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1995. This increase was primarily due to increases in the net cash provided by operating activities at Meidinger Tower, Prentice Plaza, Deerfield Mall and Regency as well as the increase in interest income and decrease in interest expense and general and administrative expenses, previously discussed. The increase was partially offset by decrease in the net cash provided by operating activities at Equitable and Sentry West which was the result of their sale during 1996.
Net cash (used for) provided by investing activities changed from $(683,000) for the year ended December 31, 1995 to $10,173,400 for the year ended December 31, 1996. The change was primarily due to the cash generated from the sales of Sentry West and Equitable, partially offset by an increase in cash paid into real estate tax escrows and an increase in investments in debt securities. The increase in investments in debt securities is a result of the extension of the maturities of certain of the Partnerships short-term
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--(CONTINUED)
investments in an effort to maximize the return on these amounts while they are held for working capital purposes. These investments are of investment-grade and substantially all of them mature less than one year from their date of purchase. The Partnership maintains working capital reserves to pay for capital expenditures such as building and tenant improvements and leasing costs. During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Partnership spent $899,500 for these items and has budgeted to spend approximately $1,000,000 during 1997. Included in this budgeted amount are capital and tenant improvements and leasing costs of approximately $500,000 for Meidinger Tower. Actual amounts expended may vary depending on a number of factors including actual leasing activity, results of property operations, liquidity considerations and other market conditions throughout the year. The General Partner believes these improvements and leasing costs are necessary in order to increase and/or maintain occupancy levels in very competitive markets, maximize rental rates charged to new and renewing tenants and to prepare the remaining properties for eventual disposition.
On August 28, 1996, the joint venture which owned Sentry West, in which the Partnership had a 50% interest, sold Sentry West for $11,650,000. The Partnership's share of the proceeds from this transaction, net of closing prorations, selling expenses and the repayment of the mortgage loan collateralized by Sentry West was approximately $894,500 and was added to working capital. For additional information, see Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.
On October 16, 1996 the Partnership sold Equitable for $7,000,000. Proceeds from this transaction, net of closing prorations, estimated selling expenses and the repayment of the mortgage loan collateralized by Equitable, was approximately $520,000 and were added to working capital. For additional information, see Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.
The increase in net cash used for financing activities of $9,841,700 for year ended December 31, 1996 when compared to the year ended December 31, 1995 was primarily the result of the repayment of mortgage loans in conjunction with the sales of Sentry West and Equitable, partially offset by the effects of the expiration of the Repurchase Option Period in 1995 and the absence of principal payments in 1996 on the mortgage loan collateralized by Meidinger Tower. Also contributing to the increase were higher principal payments made in 1996 compared to 1995 on the mortgage loans collateralized by Regency and Deerfield Mall.
Pursuant to a modification of the Partnership's Front-End Fees loan agreement, the Partnership has the option to defer payment of interest on this loan for a 48-month period beginning April 1, 1993. In addition, any interest payments made by the Partnership from April 1, 1993 through March 31, 1997 may be borrowed from an Affiliate of the General Partner. All deferred and subsequently borrowed amounts (including accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable on April 1, 1997, and shall not be subordinated to payment of Original Capital Contributions to Limited Partners. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had not exercised its option to defer the payment of interest on this loan.
In August 1996, the joint venture which owns Regency, in which the Partnership has a 25% interest with Affiliated partnerships, executed an agreement (the "Extension") with the mortgage lender to modify the terms of the mortgage loan collateralized by Regency. Significant terms of the Extension, which are retroactive to January 1, 1996, include: 1) an extension of the maturity date to December 31, 1997; 2) monthly principal and interest payments based on a 23- year amortization schedule with a per annum interest rate of 7.5%; and 3) net property cash flow (as defined in the Extension), if any, after deducting scheduled principal and interest payments, approved capital and tenant improvements and leasing commissions, is required to be deposited into a non- interest bearing reserve account maintained by the lender to be used for capital and tenant improvements, leasing commissions and operating deficits of Regency.
As of December 31, 1996, 26 of the 33 tenants at Prentice Plaza and 35 of the 54 tenants at Deerfield Mall have leases, totaling 236,905 square feet, that expire during the next three years. The Partnership's share of total base rental revenues projected to be collected from these tenants for the year ending December 31, 1997 is $2,180,600. Notwithstanding the market rental rates that may be in effect at the time that these leases mature, the Partnership faces a significant amount of uncertainty with respect to the occupancy at its properties in 1998 and possibly beyond. The General Partner and its Affiliated management companies intend to address the possible renewal of these leases well in advance of their scheduled maturities in an attempt to maintain occupancy and rental revenues at its properties.
The Partnership has significant financial obligations during 1997 and beyond. In addition to required principal payments on certain of its mortgage loans, two of the Partnership's mortgage loans mature within the next two years. In addition, as a result of the potential tenant turnover discussed above, it is anticipated that the Partnership will incur a substantial amount of capital and tenant improvements and leasing costs during the next several years. In light of this, the General Partner believes that it is in the Partnership's best interest to retain all cash available. Accordingly, cash distributions to Partners continue to be suspended The General Partner believes that Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) is one of the best and least expensive sources of cash. For the year ended December 31, 1996, Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of $2,710,800 was retained to supplement working capital reserves. In addition, the General Partner continues to review other sources of cash available to the Partnership, which includes the possible financing, refinancing or sale of certain of the Partnership's properties. While there can be no assurance as to the timing or successful completion of any future transactions or as to the properties future operating results, the General Partner currently believes that the amount of the Partnerships existing cash reserves, future Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) to be earned as well as additional proceeds to be received from any sale, disposition, financing or refinancing of any properties or any mortgage loan modifications or extensions are sufficient to cover the planned expenditures for the ensuing twelve month period.
Based upon the current estimated value of its assets, net of its outstanding liabilities, together with its expected operating results and capital expenditure requirements, the General Partner believes that the Partnership's cumulative distributions to its Limited Partners from inception through the termination of the Partnership will be significantly less than such Limited Partners' original Capital Contribution.

These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
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 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First Capital Income and Growth Fund - Series XII, A Real Estate 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
DEFINITION OF SPECIAL TERMS: Capitalized terms used in this report have the same meaning as those terms have in the Partnership's Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-11. Definitions of these terms are contained in Article III of the First Amended and Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership, which is included in the Registration Statement and incorporated herein by reference.
ORGANIZATION: The Partnership was formed on February 24, 1987, by the filing of a Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership with the Recorder of Deeds of Cook County, Illinois, and commenced the Offering of Units on May 8, 1987. The Certificate and Agreement, as amended and restated, authorized the sale to the public of 500,000 Units (with the General Partner's option to increase to 1,000,000 Units) and not less than 14,000 Units pursuant to the Prospectus. On June 9, 1987, the required minimum subscription level was reached and the Partnership's operations commenced. The General Partner exercised its option to increase the Offering to 1,000,000 Units, which amount was sold prior to the Termination of the Offering in November 1988. The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in existing, improved, income-producing real estate.
The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership will be dissolved on or before December 31, 2017. The Limited Partners, by a majority vote, may dissolve the Partnership at any time.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Under this method of accounting, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred.
Preparation of the Partnership's financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The financial statements include the Partnership's 50% interest in three joint ventures and its 25% interest in another joint venture with Affiliated partnerships. Two of the 50% joint ventures and the 25% joint venture were formed for the purpose of each acquiring a 100% interest in certain real property and one of the 50% joint ventures (prior to its liquidation in 1996) was formed for the purpose of acquiring a preferred majority interest in certain real property. These joint ventures are operated under the common control of the General Partner. Accordingly, the Partnership's pro rata share of the joint ventures' revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and Partners' capital is included in the financial statements.
The Partnership is not liable for federal income taxes as the Partners recognize their proportionate share of the Partnership income or loss in their individual tax returns; therefore, no provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership. In addition, it is not practicable for the Partnership to determine the aggregate tax bases of the individual Partners; therefore, the disclosure of the differences between the tax bases and the reported assets and liabilities of the Partnership would not be meaningful.
Commercial rental properties held for investment are recorded at cost, net of any provisions for value impairment, and depreciated (exclusive of amounts allocated to land) on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Upon classifying a commercial rental property as held for disposition, no further depreciation or amortization of such property is provided for in the financial statements. Lease acquisition fees are recorded at cost and amortized over the life of the lease. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred; expenditures for improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated life of such improvements.
During the first quarter of 1996, the Partnership adopted 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 "Standard"). The Standard established guidance for determining if the value of defined assets is impaired, and if so, how impairment losses should be measured and reported in the financial statements. Management is not aware of any indicator that would result in any significant impairment loss. Evaluation of the potential impairment of the value of the Partnership's assets is performed on an individual property basis.
Loan acquisition costs are amortized over the term of the mortgage loan made in connection with the acquisition of Partnership properties or refinancing of Partnership loans. When a property is disposed of or a loan is refinanced, the related loan acquisition costs and accumulated amortization are removed from the respective accounts and any unamortized balance is charged to expense.
Property sales or dispositions are recorded when title transfers and sufficient consideration has been received by the Partnership. Upon disposition, the related costs and accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the respective accounts. Any gain or loss on sale or disposition is recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Cash equivalents are considered all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.
Investments in debt securities are comprised of obligations of the United States government totaling $496,300 and are classified as held-to-maturity. These investments are carried at their amortized cost basis in the financial statements which approximated fair market value at December 31, 1996. All of these securities had a maturity of less than one year when purchased.
A-5
The Partnership's financial statements include financial instruments, including receivables, escrow deposits, restricted cash, trade liabilities and mortgage debt. The Partnership considers the disclosure of the fair value of its mortgage debt to be impracticable due to the general illiquid nature of the real estate financing market and an inability to obtain comparable financing on certain properties. The fair value of all other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, was not materially different from their carrying value at December 31, 1996 and 1995.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the previously reported 1995 and 1994 statements in order to provide comparability with the 1996 statements. These reclassifications had no effect on net (loss) or Partners' capital (deficit).
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, as compensation for services rendered in managing the affairs of the Partnership, the General Partner shall be entitled to receive subsequent to November 22, 1988, the Termination of the Offering, a Portfolio Management Fee, payable quarterly, which shall be an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 0.5% of the gross value of the Partnership's assets (not reduced by indebtedness collateralized by such assets), all as estimated by the General Partner in its reasonable discretion, plus, to the extent the Portfolio Management Fee paid in any prior year was less than 0.5% of the gross value of the Partnership's assets in such prior year, the amount of such deficit, or (ii) an amount equal to the remainder obtained by subtracting the aggregate amount previously paid to the General Partner as Portfolio Management Fees during such fiscal year, from an amount equal to 10% of the Partnership's aggregate Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) (computed prior to the deduction for Portfolio Management Fees) for such fiscal year. For the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 in conjunction with the suspension of distributions of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) to Limited Partners, the General Partner was not paid a Portfolio Management Fee.
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, Net Profits and Net Losses (exclusive of Net Profits and Net Losses from a Major Capital Event) are allocated 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the Limited Partners as a group. Net Losses from a Major Capital Event are allocated: first, prior to giving effect to any distributions of Sale or Refinancing Proceeds from the transaction, to the General Partner and Limited Partners with positive balances in their Capital Accounts, in proportion to and to the extent of such positive balances; and second, the balance, if any, 1% to the General Partner and 99% to the Limited Partners as a group. Net Profits from a Major Capital Event are allocated: first, prior to giving effect to any distributions of Sale or Refinancing Proceeds from the transaction, Net Profit in the amount of the Minimum Gain attributable to the property that is the subject of such Major Capital Event is allocated to the General Partner and Limited Partners with negative balances in their Capital Accounts, pro rata in proportion to such respective negative balances; second, to the General Partner and each Limited Partner in proportion to and to the extent of such amounts, if any, equal to the amount of Sale or Refinancing Proceeds to be distributed to each such General Partner or Limited Partner with respect to such Major Capital Event; and third, the balance, if any, 20% to the General Partner and 80% to the Limited Partners as a group. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, there shall be allocated to the General Partner not less than 1% of all items of Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and credit during the existence of the Partnership. For the year ended December 31, 1996, the General Partner was allocated a Net Profit of $21,600, which included a net gain of $9,800 from the sales of Partnership properties. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the General Partner was allocated a Net (Loss) of $(133,900), which included a (loss) from provisions for value impairment of $(127,000). For the year ended December 31, 1994, the General Partner was allocated a Net (Loss) of $(147,400), which included Net Profit of $1,900 from the sales of properties and a (loss) from provisions for value impairment of $(132,500).
Fees and reimbursements paid and payable by the Partnership to Affiliates were as follows:
ANTEC Corporation ("Antec"), which is in the business of designing, engineering, manufacturing and distributing cable television products, and approximately 30% owned by Anixter International Inc. (formerly known as Itel Corporation), an Affiliate of the General Partner, is obligated to the Partnership under a lease of office space at Prentice Plaza. During the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 the Partnership's 50% share of ANTEC's rent amounted to $293,400, $189,000 and $194,100, respectively. The per square foot rent paid by ANTEC is comparable to that paid by other tenants at Prentice Plaza.
Manufactured Home Communities, Inc. ("MHC") a real estate investment trust, which is in the business of owning and operating mobile home communities, an Affiliate of the General Partner, is obligated to the Partnership under a lease of office space at Prentice Plaza. During the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994 the Partnership's 50% share of MHC's rent amounted to $29,900, $22,100 and $9,900, respectively. The per square foot rent paid by MHC is comparable to that paid by other tenants at Prentice Plaza.
A-6
On-site property management for the Partnership's properties is provided by Affiliates of the General Partner for fees ranging from 3% to 6% of gross rents received by the properties based upon the terms of the individual management agreements.
3. FRONT-END FEES LOAN PAYABLE TO AFFILIATE:
The Partnership borrowed from the General Partner an amount needed for the payment of securities sales commissions, Offering and Organizational Expenses and other Front-End Fees, other than Acquisition Fees. Repayment of the principal amount of the Front-End Fees Loan is subordinated to payment to the Limited Partners of 100% of their Original Capital Contribution from Sale or Refinancing Proceeds. Interest on the outstanding balance of this loan is due and payable monthly at a rate no greater than the cost of funds obtained by the General Partner from unaffiliated lenders.
As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had drawn $13,434,400 under the Front- End Fees Loan agreement. The interest rate paid on the Front-End Fees Loan is subject to change in accordance with the loan agreement. The weighted average interest rate for the year ended December 31, 1996 was 7.43%. As of December 31, 1996, the interest rate was 7.56%.
Pursuant to a modification of this loan agreement, the Partnership has the option to defer payment of interest on this loan for a 49-month period beginning March 1, 1993. In addition, any interest payments made by the Partnership from April 1, 1993 through March 31, 1997 may be borrowed from the General Partner. All deferred and subsequently borrowed amounts (including accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable on April 1, 1997, and shall not be subordinated to payment of Original Capital Contributions to Limited Partners. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had not exercised its option to defer the payment of interest on this loan.

5. MORTGAGE LOANS PAYABLE:
Mortgage loans payable at December 31, 1996 and 1995, consisted of the following loans which are non-recourse:
(a) The average interest rate represents an average for the year ended December 31, 1996. Interest rates are subject to change in accordance with the provisions of the loan agreements for Meidinger Tower and Prentice Plaza. As of December 31, 1996, interest rates on the loans collateralized by Meidinger Tower and Prentice Plaza were 6.625% and 7.50%, respectively. (b) Represents level monthly principal and interest payments, paid in arrears. (c) This repayment may require either sale or refinancing of the respective property. (d) In August 1996, the joint venture which owns Regency, in which the Partnership has a 25% interest with Affiliated partnerships, executed an agreement (the "Extension") with the mortgage lender to modify the terms of this mortgage loan. Significant terms of the Extension, which were retroactive to January 1, 1996, include: 1) an extension of the maturity date to December 31, 1997; 2) monthly principal and interest payments based on a 23-year amortization schedule with a per annum interest rate of 7.5%; and 3) net property cash flow (as defined in the Extension), if any, after deducting scheduled principal and interest payments, approved capital and tenant improvements and leasing commissions, is required to be deposited into a non-interest bearing reserve account maintained by the lender to be used for capital and tenant improvements, leasing commissions and operating deficits of Regency.

On March 3, 1997, the Partnership received an advance of $228,100 for capital and tenant improvements. (g) These properties were sold and the mortgage loans were fully repaid during 1996 (see Note 11 for additional information).

On January 1, 1991, the Repurchase Option period commenced for the repurchase of Limited Partnership Interests. This Repurchase Option, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, allowed Limited Partners to resell their Interests to the Partnership. During 1995, the fifth and final year of the Repurchase Option period, the partnership paid a price equal to 115% of the Limited Partners' Original Capital Contribution reduced by all prior distributions previously made to the Limited Partner. The maximum amount of Interests that the Partnership was obligated to purchase during the Repurchase Option period was 0.25% of the total Original Capital Contribution for each and every calendar quarter during the Repurchase Option period. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership repurchased 50,157 Units which represented Original Capital Contributions of $5,015,700.

8. INCOME TAX:
The Partnership utilizes the accrual basis of accounting for both income tax reporting and financial statement purposes. Financial statement results will differ from income tax results due to the use of differing depreciation lives and methods, the recognition of rents received in advance as taxable income and the Partnership's provisions for value impairment. The net effect of these accounting differences for the year ended December 31, 1996 was that the results for Federal income tax reporting purposes was a (loss) of ($11,984,900) while for financial statement purposes net income was $2,155,600.

12. PROVISIONS FOR VALUE IMPAIRMENT:
Due to the depressed economic environment in the retail industry, regional factors affecting the Partnership's retail and office properties and other matters relating specifically to certain of the Partnership's properties, there was uncertainty as to the Partnership's ability to recover the net carrying value of certain of its properties during the remaining estimated holding periods. Accordingly, it was deemed appropriate to reduce the bases of such properties in the Partnership's financial statements during the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994. The provisions for value impairment were considered non-cash events for the purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows and were not utilized in the determination of Cash Flow (as defined in the Partnership Agreement).
