The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 7 HOUSING PROGRAMS LIMITED (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1998 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES GENERAL The information contained in the following notes to the financial statements is condensed from that which would appear in the annual audited financial statements; accordingly, the financial statements included herein should be reviewed in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto contained in the Housing Programs Limited (the "Partnership") annual report for the year ended December 31, 1997. National Partnership Investments Corp. ("NAPICO") is a general partner for the Partnership. Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end. The results of operations for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. In the opinion of NAPICO, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Partnership at June 30, 1998 and the results of operations for the six and three months then ended and changes in cash flows for the six months then ended. ORGANIZATION The Partnership is a limited partnership which was formed under the laws of the State of California on May 15, 1984. On September 12, 1984, the Partnership offered 3,000 units consisting of 6,000 limited partnership interests and warrants to purchase a maximum of 6,000 additional limited partnership interests through a public offering . The general partners of the Partnership are NAPICO, Housing Programs Corporation II and Coast Housing Investment Associates ("CHIA"). LBI Group Inc. owns 100 percent of the stock of Housing Programs Corporation II. NAPICO is a wholly owned subsidiary of Casden Investment Corporation, which is wholly owned by Alan I. Casden. CHIA is a limited partnership formed under the California Limited Partnership Act and consists of Messrs. Nicholas G. Ciriello, an unrelated individual, as general partner and Charles H. Boxenbaum, as limited partner. 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 5 8 HOUSING PROGRAMS LIMITED (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1998 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) METHOD OF ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENT IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS The investments in local limited partnerships are accounted for on the equity method. Acquisition, selection fees and other costs related to the acquisition of the projects have been capitalized to the investment account and amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated lives of the underlying assets. NET LOSS PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTEREST Net income (loss) per limited partnership interest was computed by dividing the limited partners' share of net income (loss) by the number of limited partnership interests outstanding during the year. The number of limited partnership interests was 12,368 for all years presented. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and bank certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less. The Partnership has its cash and cash equivalents on deposit primarily with one money market mutual fund. Such cash and cash equivalents are uninsured. INCOME TAXES No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements since such taxes, if any, are the liability of the individual partners. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Partnership reviews long-lived assets to determine if there has been any permanent impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Partnership recognizes an impairment loss. NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS The Partnership currently holds limited partnership interests in 17 limited partnerships. The 17 lower-tier limited partnerships own residential rental projects consisting of a total of 2,542 apartment units. The mortgage loans encumbering these projects are insured by United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") or state governmental agencies. 6 9 HOUSING PROGRAMS LIMITED (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1998 NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS (CONTINUED) The Partnership, as a limited partner, is entitled to 99 percent of the income and losses of the lower-tier limited partnerships. Equity in losses of limited partnerships is recognized in the financial statements until the limited partnership investment account is reduced to a zero balance. Losses incurred after the investment account is reduced to zero are not recognized. Distributions from the limited partnerships are recognized as a reduction of capital until the investment balance has been reduced to zero or a negative amount equal to future capital contributions required. Subsequent distributions are recognized as income. The following is a summary of the Partnership's investment in lower-tier limited partnerships for the six and three months ended June 30, 1998: Balance, beginning of period $13,409,054 Amortization of acquisition costs (16,000) Equity in income of limited partnerships 200,000 Distribution recognized as return of capital (35,039) ----------- Balance, end of period $13,558,015 ===========
The difference between the investment per the accompanying balance sheets at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, and the deficiency per the unaudited combined estimated statements of operations is due primarily to cumulative unrecognized equity in losses of certain limited partnerships, costs capitalized to the investment account and cumulative distributions recognized as income. The following are unaudited combined estimated statements of operations for the six and three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 for the limited partnerships in which the Partnership has investments:

7 10 HOUSING PROGRAMS LIMITED (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1998 NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS (CONTINUED) Under recently adopted law and policy, HUD has determined not to renew HAP contracts on their existing terms. In connection with renewals of the housing assistance payments contracts ("HAP Contracts") under such new law and policy, the amount of rental assistance payments under renewed HAP Contracts will be based on market rentals instead of above market rentals, which was generally the case under existing HAP Contracts. As a result, existing HAP Contracts that are renewed in the future on projects insured by the Federal Housing Administrative of HUD ("FHA") will not provide sufficient cash flow to permit owners of properties to meet the debt service requirements of these existing FHA-insured mortgages. In order to address the reduction in payments under HAP Contracts as a result of this new policy, the Multi-family Assisted Housing Reform and Affordability Act of 1997 ("MAHRAA"), which was adopted in October 1997, provides for the restructuring of mortgage loans insured by the FHA with respect to properties subject to HAP Contracts that have been renewed under the new policy. The restructured loans will be held by the current lender or another lender. Under MAHRAA, an FHA-insured mortgage loan can be restructured to reduce the annual debt service on such loan. There can be no assurance that the Partnership will be permitted to restructure its mortgage indebtedness pursuant to the new HUD rules implementing MAHRAA or that the Partnership would choose to restructure such mortgage indebtedness if it were eligible to participate in the MAHRAA program. It should be noted that there are uncertainties as to the economic impact on the Partnership of the combination of the reduced payments under the HAP Contracts and the restructuring of the existing FHA-insured mortgage loans under MAHRAA. Accordingly, the General Partners are unable to predict with certainty their impact on the Partnership's future cash flow. A real estate investment trust ("REIT") organized by affiliates of NAPICO has advised the Partnership that it intends to make a proposal to purchase from the Partnership certain of the limited partnership interests held for investment by the Partnership. The REIT proposes to purchase such limited partnership interests for cash, which it plans to raise in connection with a private placement of its equity securities. The purchase is subject to, among other things, (i) consummation of such private placement by the REIT; (ii) the purchase of the general partnership interests in the local limited partnerships by the REIT; (iii) the approval of HUD and certain state housing finance agencies; (iv) the consent of the limited partners to the sale of the local limited partnership interests held for investment by the Partnership; and (v) the consummation of a minimum number of purchase transactions with other NAPICO affiliated partnerships. As of June 30, 1998, the REIT had completed buy-out negotiations with a majority of the general partners of the local limited partnerships it proposes to purchase. A consent solicitation statement will be sent to the limited partners setting forth the terms and conditions of the purchase of the limited partners' interests held for investment by the Partnership, together with certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and other disclosures of various conflicts of interest in connection with the proposed transaction. 8 11 HOUSING PROGRAMS LIMITED (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1998 NOTE 3 - NOTES PAYABLE Certain of the Partnership's investments involved purchases of partnership interests from partners who subsequently withdrew from the operating partnership. The Partnership is obligated for non-recourse notes payable of $8,669,743 to the sellers of the partnership interests, bearing interest at 9.5 percent per annum to the various sellers of the partnership interests. The notes have principal maturity dates ranging from December 31, 1999 to December 2001 or upon sale or refinancing of the underlying partnership properties. These obligations and the related interest are collateralized by the Partnership's investment in the investee limited partnerships and are payable only out of cash distributions from the investee partnerships, as defined in the notes. Unpaid interest is due at maturity of the notes. During 1997, the lower-tier partnership that owns Deep Lake Hermitage Apartments ("Deep Lake") consummated the sale of the apartment complex for $4,800,000. There were two notes payable by the Partnership to sellers of interests in the lower-tier partnership that owns the Deep Lake property in the aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000, which were secured by the Partnership's interest in the local limited partnership. The notes had accrued interest of $1,650,696, for a total amount due of $3,150,696. The Partnership entered into an agreement with the note holders, who accepted a reduced payment of $1,001,600 in full satisfaction of all obligations, in order to enable the sale of property. This was paid by the lower tier partnership from proceeds of the sale, and approximated the Partnership's investment balance in Deep Lake. In addition, the apartment complex had a first mortgage note of approximately $3,500,000 which was paid off from proceeds of the sale. In 1997, the Partnership recognized an extraordinary gain of $2,149,096 from the forgiveness of the debt. NOTE 4 - FEES AND EXPENSES DUE TO GENERAL PARTNERS Under the terms of the Restated Certificate and Agreement of the Limited Partnership, the Partnership is obligated to the general partners for an annual management fee equal to 0.5 percent of the original invested assets of the limited partnerships. Invested assets is defined as the costs of acquiring project interests including the proportionate amount of the mortgage loans related to the Partnership's interests in the capital accounts of the respective limited partnerships. As of June 30, 1998, the fees and expenses due the general partners exceeded the Partnership's cash. The general partners, during the forthcoming year, will not demand payment of amounts due in excess of such cash or such that the Partnership would not have sufficient operating cash; however, the Partnership will remain liable for all such amounts. NOTE 5 - CONTINGENCIES NAPICO is a plaintiff in various lawsuits and has also been named as defendant in other lawsuits arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of NAPICO, the claims will not result in any material liability to the Partnership. 9 12 HOUSING PROGRAMS LIMITED (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) JUNE 30, 1998 NOTE 5 - CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) The Partnership has assessed the potential impact of the Year 2000 computer systems issue on its operations. The Partnership believes that no significant actions are required to be taken by the Partnership to address the issue and that the impact of the Year 2000 computer systems issue will not materially affect the Partnership's future operating results or financial condition. NOTE 6 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, when it is practicable to estimate that value. The notes payable are collateralized by the Partnership's investments in investee limited partnerships and are payable only out of cash distributions from the investee partnerships. The cash flow generated by operations of the investee limited partnerships, which account for the Partnership's primary source of revenues, are subject to various government rules, regulations and restrictions which make it impracticable to estimate the fair value of the notes payable and related accrued interest. The carrying amount of other assets and liabilities reported on the balance sheets that require such disclosure approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity. 10 13 HOUSING PROGRAMS LIMITED (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) JUNE 30, 1998 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Partnership's primary sources of funds include interest income on money market accounts and certificates of deposit and distributions from limited partnerships in which the Partnership has invested. It is not expected that any of the local limited partnerships in which the Partnership has invested will generate cash flow sufficient to provide for distributions to the Partnership's limited partners in any material amount. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Partnership revenues consist primarily of interest income earned on certificates of deposit and other temporary investment of funds. The Partnership also receives distributions from the lower-tier limited partnerships in which it has invested. Distributions received from limited partnerships are recognized as return of capital until the investment balance has been reduced to zero or to a negative amount equal to future capital contributions required. Subsequent distributions received are recognized as income. Except for certificates of deposit and money market funds, the Partnership's investments consist entirely of interests in other limited partnerships owning government assisted housing projects. Available cash is invested to provide interest income as reflected in the statements of operations. These funds can be converted to cash to meet obligations as they arise. The Partnership intends to continue investing available funds in this manner. A recurring partnership expense is the annual management fee. The fee is payable to the General Partners of the Partnership and is calculated at .5 percent of the Partnership's invested assets. The management fee is paid to the General Partners for their continuing management of partnership affairs. The fee is payable beginning with the month following the Partnership's initial investment in a local limited partnership. Management fees were $246,480 and $263,326 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The fees have decreased due to the sale of a property owned by a local partnership in 1997, which reduced the invested assets. The Partnership is obligated on non-recourse notes payable of $8,669,743 at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, which bear interest at 9.5 percent per annum and have principal maturities ranging from December 1999 to December 2001. Effective January 1, 1995, the interest rate for two notes totaling $1,500,000 changed from 9.5 percent to 12.5 percent per the terms of the notes, and the note holders accepted a reduced payment of $1,000,000 in full satisfaction of all obligations in 1997 in connection with the sale of the related property. The notes and related interest are payable from cash flow generated from operations of the related rental properties as defined in the notes. These obligations are collateralized by the Partnership's investments in the limited partnerships. Unpaid interest is due at maturity of the notes. 11 14 HOUSING PROGRAMS LIMITED (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) JUNE 30, 1998 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) RESULTS OF OPERATION (CONTINUED) Operating expenses, other than management fees and interest expense, consist of legal and accounting fees for services rendered to the Partnership and administrative expenses, which were generally consistent for periods presented. Legal and accounting fees were $77,300 and $74,600 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. General and administrative expenses were $39,000 and $32,100 for the periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Partnership accounts for its investments in the local limited partnerships on the equity method, thereby adjusting its investment balance by its proportionate share of the income or loss of the local limited partnerships. Losses incurred after the limited partnership investment account is reduced to zero are not recognized. During the year ended December 31, 1997, the lower-tier partnership that owns Deep Lake consummated the sale of the apartment complex for $4,800,000. There were two notes payable by the Partnership to sellers of interests in the lower-tier partnership that owns the Deep Lake property in the aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000, which were secured by the Partnership's interest in the local limited partnership. The notes had accrued interest of $1,650,696, for a total amount due of $3,150,696. The Partnership entered into an agreement with the note holders, who accepted a reduced payment of $1,001,600 in full satisfaction of all obligations, in order to enable the sale of property. This was paid by the lower tier partnership from proceeds of the sale, and approximated the Partnership's investment balance in Deep Lake. In addition, the apartment complex had a first mortgage note of approximately $3,500,000 which was paid off from proceeds of the sale. The Partnership recognized an extraordinary gain of $2,149,096 from the forgiveness of the debt in the second quarter of 1997. Under recently adopted law and policy, HUD has determined not to renew HAP contracts on their existing terms. In connection with renewals of the housing assistance payments contracts ("HAP Contracts") under such new law and policy, the amount of rental assistance payments under renewed HAP Contracts will be based on market rentals instead of above market rentals, which was generally the case under existing HAP Contracts.
