Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of Fox Capital Management Corporation ("FCMC" or the "Managing General Partner"), a California corporation, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 information to conform to the 1997 presentation. NOTE B - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED PARTIES The Partnership has no employees and is dependent on the Managing General Partner and its affiliates for the management and administration of all partnership activities. The Partnership Agreement provides for payments to affiliates for services and as reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership. The general partner of the Partnership is Fox Partners III, a California general partnership whose general partners are FCMC, Fox Realty Investors ("FRI"), a California general partnership, and Fox Partners 84, a California general partnership. Pursuant to a series of transactions which closed during 1996, affiliates of Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of FCMC, NPI Equity Investments II, Inc. ("NPI Equity"), the managing general partner of FRI, and National Property Investors, Inc. ("NPI"), the sole stockholder of NPI Equity. In connection with these transactions, affiliates of Insignia appointed new officers and directors of NPI Equity and FCMC. The following transactions with affiliates of Insignia, NPI, and affiliates of NPI were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 (in thousands): Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 1996 Property management fees (included in operating expenses) $111 $ 108 Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included in general and administrative and operating expenses) 158 209 Partnership management fees (included in general and administrative expenses) 36 36 For the period from January 19, 1996 to August 31, 1997, the Partnership insured its properties under a master policy through an agency and insurer unaffiliated with the Managing General Partner. An affiliate of the Managing General Partner acquired, in the acquisition of a business, certain financial obligations from an insurance agency which was later acquired by the agent who placed the master policy. The agent assumed the financial obligations to the affiliate of the Managing General Partner who received payments on these obligations from the agent. The amount of the Partnership's insurance premiums accruing to the benefit of the affiliate of the Managing General Partner by virtue of the agent's obligations is not significant. NOTE C - CONTINGENCY On January 24, 1990, a settlement agreement was executed by and between the Partnership and certain defendants in connection with legal proceedings at Commonwealth Centre. Lincoln Property Company ("Lincoln"), one of the defendants, provided the Partnership with a deficiency certificate totaling $1,250,000 pursuant to Lincoln's company-wide debt restructuring plan. Effective December 31, 1994, the obligators under this collateral pool agreement exercised their right to extend the maturity date of the deficiency certificates to December 31, 1997. It is anticipated that any payments made to the Partnership on account of its $1,250,000 face amount deficiency certificate will not be made, if at all, until such time. The amount the Partnership will ultimately receive under the certificate, which is subject to contingencies, is uncertain. Accordingly, the certificate will be recorded in the financial statements when payment is received. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS The Partnership's investment properties consist of two apartment complexes, three office buildings, and two business parks. The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996: Average Occupancy Property 1997 1996 Commonwealth Centre 84% 78% Dallas, TX Crabtree Office Center 99% 97% Raleigh, North Carolina Linpro Park I 99% 99% Reston, Virginia Metcalf 103 Office Park 97% 98% Overland Park, Kansas Highland Park Commerce Center 94% 93% Charlotte, North Carolina Harbor Club Downs 96% 95% Palm Harbor, Florida The Corners Apartments 93% 94% Spartanburg, South Carolina The increase in occupancy at Commonwealth Centre is due to four new occupying a total of 21,471 square feet, which represents approximately 20% of the total space. At September 30, 1997, Commonwealth Centre was 94% occupied. The Partnership's net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, was approximately $801,000 versus a net loss of approximately $1,270,000 for the corresponding period of 1996. The Partnership's net loss for the three months ended September 30, 1997, was approximately $193,000 versus a net loss of approximately $501,000 for the corresponding period of 1996. The decrease in net loss for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1997, is attributable to an increase in rental and other income and decreases in operating, depreciation and general and administrative expenses. The increase in rental income is primarily due to increased rental rates at Harbor Club Downs. Other income increased primarily due to an increase in interest income as a result of increased cash balances. The decrease in operating expense is primarily due to decreases in major repairs and maintenance at Harbor Club Downs, Highland Park, and The Corners. Included in operating expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, is approximately $86,000 for major repairs and maintenance, comprised primarily of exterior building repairs, landscaping, parking lot repairs, and tennis court repairs. Included in operating expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, is approximately $171,000 of major repairs and maintenance, comprised primarily of exterior painting, gutter repairs, exterior building repairs, landscaping and swimming pool repairs. The decrease in depreciation expense is a result of certain assets becoming fully depreciated in 1996. General and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to the decrease in expense reimbursements related to the transition and relocation of the administrative offices during the first half of 1996. As noted in "Item 1. Note B - Transactions with Affiliated Parties," the Partnership reimburses the Managing General Partner and its affiliates for its costs involved in the management and administration of all partnership activities. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner monitors the rental market environment of each of its investment properties to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expense. As part of this plan, the Managing General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level. However, due to changing market conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan. At September 30, 1997, the Partnership had unrestricted cash of approximately $7,483,000, as compared to approximately $6,284,000 at September 30, 1996. Net cash provided by operating activities increased primarily as a result of an increase in net income as discussed above. Net cash used in investing activities increased due to increased expenditures for property improvements and replacements. Net cash used in financing activities remained stable. The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital expenditures required at the various properties to adequately maintain the physical assets and other operating needs of the Partnership. Such assets are currently thought to be sufficient for any near-term needs of the Partnership. The mortgage indebtedness consists of Non-Recourse Promissory Notes totaling $47,439,000 in principal and deferred interest. These notes mature on November 30, 1998, at which time the Partnership will have to extend the due dates of these notes, find replacement financing, risk losing the properties through foreclosure, or sell properties. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations, property sales, refinancings, and the availability of cash reserves. No cash distributions to the limited partners were made in 1996 or during the nine months ended September 30, 1997. No distributions are expected to be made in the remaining months of 1997. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Adrian Charles Pastori, on his own behalf and for all others similarly situated vs. Century Properties Fund XX et. al., California Superior Court for County of San Francisco, Case No. 960684. In January 1994, an investor in the Partnership filed a putative class action lawsuit for monetary damages in Superior Court of the County of San Diego, California against the Partnership, its general partner, Fox Partners III, the general partners of Fox Partners III, and others. The lawsuit alleges that the prospectus for the Partnership contained material misrepresentations and omissions. In April 1994, the Court granted defendants; motion to have the venue of the case transferred from San Diego County to San Francisco County. Plaintiff's amended complaint alleges causes of action premised on negligence, fraud, and breach of fiduciary duty. The Partnership has filed its answer in the case. In August 1996, the court denied plaintiff's motion to have a class of all unit holders certified. In August 1997, the California Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's denial of class certification. The Plaintiff appealed this ruling. In October 1997, the California Supreme Court has denied review of the determination of the Court of Appeals. The Partnership intends to vigorously defend this action. The ultimate outcome of the litigation cannot presently be determined, however, the Managing General Partner does not believe that the litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership.
