CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT As of November 10, 1998, Imowitz Koenig & Co., LLP, the independent accountant previously engaged as the principal accountant to audit the financial statements of Century Properties Fund XVII (the "Registrant" or the "Partnership") was dismissed. The audit reports of Imowitz Koenig & Co., LLP on the financial statements of the Partnership as of and for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The decision to change accountants was recommended by the Managing General Partner of the Partnership. During the Partnership's two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period preceding the change, there were no disagreements with the former accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report. In addition, there have been no "reportable events" (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv)(B) of Item 304 of regulation S-B) during the periods noted above. The Registrant has provided a copy of this disclosure to the former accountant, and the Registrant requested that the former accountant furnish the Registrant with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Registrant, and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of the former accountant's response indicating agreement is included as an exhibit to this report. ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS (c) Exhibits: The following is filed as part of this report Exhibit No. Exhibit 16 Letter dated November 11, 1998 from the Registrant's former independent accountant regarding its concurrence with the statements made by the Registrant in this Current Report.
