Documents Incorporated by Reference Prospectus of Registrant, dated June 10, 1985, as supplemented by Supplement dated November 7, 1985, filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act of 1933. Annual Report on Form 10-K of Registrant for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1986 through December 31, 2000, filed pursuant to section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, but each only to the extent expressly incorporated by reference in Parts I, II and III. PART I Item 1. Business Registrant is a Delaware limited partnership formed as of October 5, 1984. FJS Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an affiliate of First Jersey Securities, Inc. ("First Jersey" or the "Underwriter"), is the general partner ("General Partner") of the Registrant. Reference is made to the Prospectus (the "Prospectus") of Registrant dated June 10, 1985, as supplemented by a Supplement (the "Supplement"), dated November 7, 1985, which have been filed pursuant to rule 424 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each of which is incorporated herein by reference. The Prospectus was filed as part of Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-11, pursuant to which 100,000 Units of Limited Partnership Interest (the "Units") were registered. On May 1, 1986, the sole closing of the Units, the Registrant received $8,391,500 in Gross Proceeds from the sale of 16,783 Units to investors. Registrant paid $671,320 in underwriting commissions to First Jersey and a total of $419,575 in organization and offering expenses to the General Partner. Registrant owns and operates one 312 unit garden apartment complex, the Pavilion Apartments ("Pavilion"), located in West Palm Beach, Florida. The description of the acquisition is set forth in the Prospectus under "Property Acquisitions" and is incorporated herein by reference. Registrant will not invest in or acquire any other properties. For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, revenues from Pavilion accounted for approximately 99.8%, 99.6% and 99.4% respectively of Registrant's gross revenues. Competition The real estate business is highly competitive and Pavilion has active competition from similar properties in the vicinity. Registrant will also experience competition for potential buyers at such time as it seeks to sell Pavilion. Employees Services are performed by Registrant's employees at Pavilion by nine full-time and one part-time on site personnel. The personnel are under the direct supervision of a local unaffiliated management company which in turn is supervised by the General Partner. Salaries for such on-site personnel are paid by Registrant or by the local unaffiliated management company from fees received from Registrant. The General Partner also provides certain supervisory property management services to Registrant under a management agreement. Page 1 Tax Legislation The Tax Reform Act of 1986 (the "1986 Act"), which was enacted on October 22, 1986, requires that losses from "passive activities" (which includes any rental activity) may only offset income from "passive activities" Passive losses in excess of passive income are suspended and are carried over to future years when they may be deducted against passive income generated by the Partnership in such year (including gain recognized on the sale of the Partnership's assets) or against passive income derived by Unitholders from other sources. The Revenue Act of 1987 (the "1987 Act") was enacted on December 22, 1987 and provides certain adverse tax consequences for "publicly traded partnerships." A "publicly traded partnership" is defined as a partnership whose interests are traded on an established securities market or readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof). Such a partnership will be taxed as a corporation (unless at least 90% of its gross income is derived from certain passive sources, such as real property rents, dividends or interest) and each tax-exempt entity acquiring an interest in any such partnership after December 17, 1987 will have all of its share of the partnership's income attributable to interests acquired after such date treated as unrelated business income. In addition, the income from such a partnership would be treated as other than passive income, and losses from any such partnership could only be offset by income from the same partnership. The Revenue Act of 1987 adopted provisions which have an adverse impact on investors in a "publicly traded partnership." A "publicly traded partnership" is a partnership whose interests are traded on an established securities market or readily tradable on a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof). If the Partnership were classified as such, (i) it may be taxed as a corporation, (ii) qualified plans and other entities exempt from taxation acquiring interests in the Partnership after December 17, 1987 would have to treat income derived from the Partnership as unrelated business income, with the result that the limited partnership interests would be less attractive to tax-exempt investors (and therefore could be less marketable) or (iii) income derived from an investment in the Partnership would be treated as other than passive income, in which case losses from the Partnership could only be offset by income from the same partnership. The IRS has established alternative safe harbors that allow interests in a partnership to be transferred or redeemed in certain circumstances without causing the partnership to be characterized a "publicly traded partnership." Interests in the Partnership are not listed or quoted for trading on an established securities exchange. However, it is possible that transfers of interests could occur in a secondary market in sufficient amount and frequency to cause the Partnership to be treated as a "publicly traded partnership." The Partnership has adopted a policy of prohibiting transfers in secondary market transactions unless, notwithstanding such transfers, the Partnership will satisfy at least one of the safe harbors. Such a restriction could impair the ability of an investor to liquidate its investment quickly. It is anticipated that such policy will remain in effect until such time, if ever, as further clarification of the Revenue Act of 1987 permits the Partnership to lessen the scope of these restrictions. The General Partner, if so authorized, will take such steps as are necessary, if any, to prevent the reclassification of the Partnership as a "publicly traded partnership." Page 2 Item 2. Properties The sole property owned and operated by Registrant is the Pavilion Apartments (the "Project"), a 312 Unit garden apartment complex located at 401 Executive Center Drive, West Palm Beach, Florida. Registrant will not acquire or invest in any other properties. Registrant acquired a 50% interest in the Pavilion on December 31, 1984, and the remaining 50% on January 1, 1985. It owns Pavilion in fee ownership, subject to a first mortgage. Pavilion, constructed in 1972, is located on a 15 acre tract and consists of 312 apartment units containing 286,500 square feet of rentable area in 11 low-rise buildings. Rental units are available in one, two and three bedroom plans. There are 108 one-bedroom apartments, 44 two- bedroom apartments with one bath, 116 two-bedroom apartments with two baths, and 44 three- bedroom apartments. Ground amenities include a heated swimming pool, lighted tennis courts, basketball and shuffle-board courts, and a clubhouse with game room, saunas, lounge and outdoor barbecues. An equipped children's playground is also provided. The apartments in the Project are available for rent to residential tenants, generally under one year leases. No tenant occupies more than one apartment in the Pavilion except for the West Palm Beach Recovery Center which occupies 5 Units. Each of such units was leased at the then current market rents. With substantially all tenants occupying their apartments under one year leases, it is anticipated that leases for all apartments will expire each year. The current rent schedule for leases is as follows: Unit Size1 Monthly Rent2 1 BR/1B $589/$609 2 BR/1B $689/$709 2 BR/2B $709/$729 3 BR/2B $809/$829 In the opinion of the management of Registrant, the Project is adequately covered by insurance. First Mortgage: The existing first mortgage affecting the Project is held of record by Greenwich Capital Financial Products, Inc., and serviced by Washington Mutual FSB, Houston, Texas. As of December 31, 2001, the mortgage had an unpaid principal balance of approximately $4,465,788. This mortgage was closed on March 31, 1994, and refinanced the former first mortgage held by The Bank of Tokyo. At that time, a new loan secured by a first mortgage on the project was obtained from the Long Beach Bank, FSB, Orange, California, in the amount of $5,000,000. This loan provides for a term of ten (10) years with an interest rate of 9.75% per annum. The loan is -------- 1BR = Bedroom; B = Bathroom 2Range of rents/unit's rent varies depending on location of unit in the Project. Page 3 repayable in equal monthly installments of $44,556.87 for principal and interest, with a balloon payment due in March 2004. At maturity a balance of approximately $4,215,000 will be due. The loan requires deposits with the lender for real estate taxes, insurance premiums, a debt service reserve of one month's payment, as well as deposits for replacement reserves for the project. These deposits are held in interest bearing accounts for the benefit of Registrant. The loan was not prepayable during the first five years of its term, and thereafter is prepayable with payment of a penalty based upon a "rate protection" formula for the lender. The loan requires consent of the holder to the transfer or sale of the Pavilion Apartments and to certain transfers of ownership interests in Registrant. For the complete terms and provisions of this loan see Exhibits 10(m) through 10(s).

The aggregate tax of $192,068.56 was paid in the discounted amount of $184,385.82 in November 2001. Item 3. Legal Proceedings In July 2001, Mario Raymond, as plaintiff, filed a lawsuit (the "Raymond Lawsuit") in the Circuit Court of the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County Florida, Case No:01011644 12. Named defendants in the action were: (a) Registrant, (b) FJS Properties, Inc., the general partner of Registrant, and (c) MSL Property Management, Inc., the onsite managing agent of the Pavilion Apartments. Plaintiff alleged that he was a tenant at the Pavilion Apartments in September 1997, and that "a burner of the kitchen stove supplied by defendants turned on by itself, overheating and boiling hot oil on said burner creating a fire." Plaintiff alleged that "as a result, he became severely burned over 23% of his body." Plaintiff further alleged that "the defendants had previously been notified that the kitchen stove had a propensity to turn on by itself and asked that it be replaced." Plaintiff claims defendants breached their duty to maintain the apartment in a safe and careful manner causing injury to Plaintiff. Plaintiff seeks damages "in excess of Fifteen Thousand ($15,000.00) Dollars" for injuries, pain and suffering, lost wages, medical expenses, and other items both presently and in the future. There is no limit on the damages claimed or which could be awarded. Page 5 At the time of this alleged incident the Pavilion Apartments was insured under a $1,000,000 primary, general liability policy issued by Reliance Insurance Company of Illinois, and under an umbrella liability policy issued by Twin City Fire Insurance Company providing excess liability coverage of Twenty Million Dollars. The excess coverage policy only covers liability over and above the underlying One Million Dollars of coverage, and does not provide any coverage for the first One Million Dollars of any potential judgement. In June 2001, Reliance Group Holdings Inc. ("Reliance"), the former parent of Reliance Insurance Company of Illinois, filed for bankruptcy-court protection, and in October 2001, the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania ordered the liquidation of the Reliance which included Reliance Insurance Company of Illinois which had been consolidated into the Reliance Group Holdings Inc. Upon the insolvency of Reliance the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association, Inc. ("FIGA") was notified of the Raymond Lawsuit and it assumed the obligations of Reliance up to the Florida statutory limit of $300,000 per claim. On February 19, 2002, FIGA advised that the Raymond Lawsuit "claim does not fall within the scope of the 'Florida Insurance Guaranty Association Act'", in that the "policy was written with Reliance Insurance Company of Illinois. This company was not admitted and was not a member insurer as defined by the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association Statute." As an "out-of-state" insurer, its obligations would not be covered by the FIGA, and sole recourse is in a claim against the Receiver for Reliance in the Pennsylvania Liquidation proceeding. Registrant and MSL Property Management, Inc. have engaged an attorney to represent the defendants in the Raymond Lawsuit. Registrant is unable at this time to predict the outcome of the lawsuit or to quantify the potential liability of Registrant in this action. In addition, Registrant is unable to evaluate how the existence of this lawsuit could affect Registrant's ability to sell or refinance the Pavilion Apartments or to make distributions of cash to limited partners. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders --------------------------------------------------- No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the 2001 calendar year. PART II Item 5. Market for Registrant's Securities and Related Security Holder Matters ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Units of the Registrant are not publicly traded nor is it anticipated that a public trading market will develop for the Units. On and as of December 31, 2001, beneficial interests in an aggregate of 2,437 Units were acquired from the unaffiliated holders thereof, by three third parties (one of which was a prior limited partner of Registrant) at a price of $105 per Unit, pursuant to a tender offer filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of March 15, 2002, there were approximately 542 holders owning an aggregate of 16,788 Units. The General Partner has established a policy of limiting transfers of Units in secondary market transactions unless, Page 6 notwithstanding such transfers, the Partnership will satisfy one or more applicable safe harbors prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service to avoid having the Partnership classified as a publicly traded partnership which could have adverse tax effects on limited partners. In order to comply with the safe harbor provisions, the transfer of Units may be restricted. There were no distributions per Unit of Registrant during the 1985 fiscal year. The Registrant distributed $3.01 per Unit for the 1986 fiscal year, $4.63 per Unit for 1987, $6.59 per Unit for 1988, $14.72 per Unit for 1989, $7.75 per Unit for 1990, and $1.97 per Unit for the first quarter of 1991. There were no distributions made for the second, third or fourth quarters of 1991, for 1992, or for 1993. Distributions aggregating $5.19 and $5.64 per Unit were made for 1994 and 1995 respectively, and a distribution of $1.54 was made for the first quarter of 1996. No distributions were made for the remaining quarters of 1996. The reduction in distributions in the years from 1989 through 1991, resulted from decreasing interest rates and the reduced occupancy levels that the Pavilion Apartments experienced. When there was cash flow available for distribution during 1992 and 1993, no distributions were made to retain available cash that might be required for use in connection with the refinancing of the existing first mortgage. During the last three quarters of 1996 all available cash flow was utilized for work being done on the Pavilion Apartments. Distributions of aggregating $5.53 per Unit were made for the first three quarters of 1997, and no distribution was made for the fourth quarter of 1997 as all available cash flow was utilized for capital improvements at the Pavilion Apartments. Aggregate distributions of $8.42 per Unit were made for 1998 (including a distribution of $2.19 for the fourth quarter of 1998 which was made in February 1999). A distribution of $2.29 per Unit was disbursed in May 1999, for the first quarter of 1999. No distributions were made for the subsequent quarters of 1999 or during 2000 or 2001, as all available cash flow was utilized for operations and capital improvements at the Pavilion Apartments. There are no material legal restrictions set forth in Registrant's Limited Partnership Agreement, annexed to the Prospectus as Exhibit A thereto ("Partnership Agreement"), upon Registrant's present or future ability to make distributions.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations ---------------------------------------------------------------- Liquidity and Capital Resources As of the present date, Registrant owns one Property, the Pavilion Apartments, and does not intend to acquire any other property. As of May 1, 1986, Registrant admitted as Limited Partners purchasers of 16,783 Units. Total capital raised was $8,391,500. In addition, Registrant received accrued interest on the escrow account in the amount of $82,471. Thus proceeds from the admission of Limited Partners aggregated $8,473,971. The Pavilion Apartments are owned by Registrant subject to a first mortgage loan in the original principal amount of $5,000,000. This loan was obtained from Long Beach Bank in March 1994, to refinance the previous first mortgage affecting the property. (See "First Mortgage" above for a description of the terms of this loan). Registrant anticipates that cash flow from Pavilion should be sufficient to permit the Partnership to make the monthly payments on the first mortgage due prior to maturity and to meet Registrant's monthly operating expenses, however, should there be a significant decrease in Pavilion's occupancy or rental rates, or should there be a significant increase in capital repair/replacement requirements that can be funded from available cash flow and current reserves, there can be no assurance that Registrant would be able to obtain sufficient funds to make such payments. During 2001, the holder of the first mortgage on the Pavilion Apartments agreed to the withdrawal of $60,000 from an escrow account held by the first mortgagee. These funds were intended to be utilized for capital improvements at the Pavilion Apartments, in particular, among other items, for roof repairs needed at the property. $60,000 was disbursed from the escrow account to the Partnership on June 13, 2001. The Partnership will replenish the escrow account with payments of $5,000 per month which commenced in June 2001 and will continue monthly for twelve months. It is anticipated that cash flow from the Pavilion Apartments will be sufficient to make such payments. A similar withdrawal of $59,675 was made by the Partnership on May 22, 2000. The Partnership replenished this account with payments of $5,000 per month from June 2000, through May 2001. Registrant distributed $3.01 per Unit for the 1986 fiscal year, $4.63 per Unit for 1987, $6.59 per Unit for 1988, $14.72 per Unit for 1989, $7.75 per Unit for 1990, and $1.97 per Unit for the first quarter of 1991. There were no distributions made for the second, third or fourth quarters of 1991, for 1992, or for 1993. Distributions aggregating $5.19 and $5.64 per Unit were made for 1994 and 1995 respectively, and a distribution of $1.54 was made for the first quarter of 1996. No distributions were made for the remaining quarters of 1996. The reduction in distributions in the years from 1989 through 1991, resulted from decreasing interest rates and the reduced occupancy levels which the Pavilion Apartments experienced. When there was cash flow available for distribution during 1992 and 1993, no distributions were made to retain available cash which might be required for use in Page 9 connection with the refinancing of the existing first mortgage. During the last three quarters of 1996 all available cash flow was utilized for work being done on the Pavilion Apartments. Distributions of aggregating $5.53 per Unit were made for the first three quarters of 1997, and no distribution was made for the fourth quarter of 1997 as all available cash flow was utilized for capital improvements at the Pavilion Apartments. Aggregate distributions of $8.42 per Unit were made for 1998 (including a distribution of $2.19 for the fourth quarter of 1998 which was made in February 1999). A distribution of $2.29 per Unit was disbursed in May 1999, for the first quarter of 1999. No distributions were made for the subsequent quarters of 1999 or during 2000 or 2001, as all cash flow was utilized for operations and capital improvements at the Pavilion Apartments. (See "Operations" below). OPERATIONS Registrant has operated the Pavilion Apartments, located in West Palm Beach, Florida, since January 1985. Management Agreement The Pavilion Apartments are currently managed by MSL Property Management Inc., an unaffiliated property manager, under a five year agreement as extended in January 1999. The agreement will also terminate on the earlier sale or disposition of the Pavilion Apartments. 2001 Fiscal Year Rental Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2001, was $2,369,558 as compared with $2,382,348 for the 2000 calendar year. The slight decrease in income in 2001 reflected increased vacancies and a slight increase in rental allowances which more than offset increased rental rates for apartments at the project. Occupancy rates at the project held in the low to mid 90% range for the 2001 year. As of February 25, 2002, the Pavilion Apartments had no apartments available for rent. At such time there were 15 vacant apartments, with 3 apartments rented for occupancy in February 2002, 11 rented for occupancy by March 5, 2001, while the remaining vacant unit is the model apartment. The fifteen apartments presently vacant equate to a physical occupancy of 95.2%. Operating Expenses, consisting mainly of real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance and utilities, decreased in 2001 to $726,485 as compared to the 2000 cost of $782,765. This decrease reflected a reduction in amounts spent on Repairs and Maintenance as increased amounts were expended on capitalized items during that year. General and Administrative Expenses for 2001 increased to $888,503 from $830,650 in 2000. This increase resulted from a substantial increase in the insurance premium for coverage of the Pavilion Apartments as well as increases in court costs and eviction expenses, and payroll increases Page 10 at the property. In addition, there was an increase in management fees for supervision of capital improvement projects at the property. Capital Improvements, Repairs and Maintenance, and Replacements During 2001, in addition to items which were expensed under Cost of Rental Income, substantial sums were spent on capital improvements, upgrades and replacements at the Pavilion Apartments. Among these items were the following: Capitalized Improvements ------------------------------------------------------------------- Aggregate Item Expenditures Furniture & Fixtures Carpeting $100,983 Security Lighting $2,424 Window Treatments $8,370 Stoves/Refrigerators/Dishwashers $40,041 Total: $151,818 Building Improvements Bathroom Tile Replacements $12,931 Counter Tops $29,480 Dumpster Gates $11,698 AirConditioner Replacements $17,758 Miscellaneous Interior $26,759 Improvements Roof Repairs $48,681 Total: $147,307 --------------------- -------------------------------- -------------- Aggregate 2001 Capital Expenditures $299,125 ----------------------------------------------------- ============== During 2001, carpeting was replaced in 136 apartments; stoves in 36 apartments; refrigerators in 45 apartments; and dishwashers in 35 apartments. Funds for these expenditures were provided from Cash Flow from the Pavilion Apartments and from cash reserves on hand. Future Capital Improvement and Replacements It is anticipated that substantial additional funds will be expended for capital improvements during 2002 and subsequent years in order to keep the Pavilion Apartments competitive in the rental market. Funds for such items may be provided from sources such as Partnership cash reserves and Page 11 cash flow from the Pavilion Apartments. To the extent these sources are insufficient to complete work which may be required, the Partnership may be forced to explore outside sources of financing. There can be no assurance that sufficient financing can be obtained to complete such work, and the Pavilion Apartments' ability to compete in the rental market may be adversely affected. As of March 1, 2002, carpeting in 88 apartments in the Pavilion Apartments is over 3 years old, 171 hot water heaters are over 6 years old; 101 dishwashers, 130 refrigerators and 167 stoves are over 8 years old. The managing agent has projected a cost of approximately $261,170 over the next three years for replacements of dishwashers, refrigerators, stoves, air conditioners, and hot water heater replacements. In addition, the Pavilion's managing agent has prepared a schedule of anticipated major capital expenditures which the managing agent feels are necessary to be completed during the next few years to rehabilitate and upgrade the Pavilion to enable it to compete in the West Palm Beach rental market. These items include but may not be limited to the following items as scheduled by the managing agent: Estimated Potential Project Costs Roof Replacements - 10 buildings $528,910 Balcony, flat & mansard repairs $47,250 Asphalt Overlay for parking Lots $110,470 Shower Tile & Pan Replacements $113,850 Cabinet and Counter Top Replacements $240,000 Sprinkler System Replacement $53,900 Landscape Upgrades $70,790 Replace Iron Fence at Front of Property $36,300 Exterior Pressure Cleaning and Painting $102,850 Repair and Replace Gutters $12,480 Pool and Amenity Renovations $63,510 Remodel Club House $90,150 Remodel Laundry Room & Pool Baths $59,590 ------------------------------------- ------------ 2000 Fiscal Year Rental Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2000, was $2,382,348 as compared with $2,189,322 for the 1999 calendar year. The increase in income in 2000 reflected increased rental rates for apartments at the project as well as reduced vacancies and rental allowances, which while in a reduced amount, were still being utilized to attract tenants to the Pavilion. Occupancy rates at the project held in the low to mid 90% range for the 2000 year. As of February 12, 2000, the Pavilion Apartments had 5 apartments out of 312 available for rent. These 5 apartments are included in twenty-two presently vacant apartments, with 16 apartments rented for occupancy in February Page 12 2000, while the remaining vacant unit is the model apartment. The twenty-two apartments presently vacant equate to a physical occupancy of 92.9%. Operating Expenses, consisting mainly of real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance and utilities, increased in 2000 to $782,764 as compared to the 1999 cost of $716,919. This increase reflected increases in amounts spent on Repairs and Maintenance, as well as increased costs for Water and Sewer and Sanitation. In addition, there was an increase in Real Estate Taxes as a result of increased tax rates on the project. These were offset to some extent by a decrease in Electric expense at the Pavilion as a result of greater occupancy at the property, with apartment electric being paid for by tenants, and by reducing the amount of electricity used in vacant apartments. General and Administrative Expenses for 2000 increased to $830,650 from $752,824 in 1999. This increase resulted from increases in court costs and eviction expenses, and increased costs for security services. In addition, there was an increase in professional fees resulting from increased accruals in anticipation of increased costs for the 2000 annual audit, preparation of tax returns and tax reporting to limited partners. Capital Improvements, Repairs and Maintenance, and Replacements Page 13 During 2000, in addition to items which were expensed under Cost of Rental Income, substantial sums were spent on capital improvements, upgrades and replacements at the Pavilion Apartments. Among these items were the following: Capitalized Improvements Aggregate Item Expenditures Furniture & Fixtures Carpeting $80,488 Carpet Machine $2,327 Fitness Center Equipment $2,438 Security Lighting $1,473 Stoves/Refrigerators/Dishwashers $84,649 Total: $171,375 Building Improvements Bathroom Tile Replacements $88,878 Counter Tops $2,660 Dumpster Gates $2,245 Entrance Gates $7,378 Fire Alarm Box Replacements $5,317 Miscellaneous Interior $1,416 Improvements Office Remodel $2,760 Roof Repairs $64,203 Sewer Replacement $10,238 Sprinkler System Replacements $25,984 Total: $211,079 Aggregate 2000 Capital Expenditures $382,454 --------------------- ============== During 2000, carpeting was replaced in 91 apartments; stoves in 89 apartments; refrigerators in 84 apartments; and dishwashers in 57 apartments. Funds for these expenditures were provided from Cash Flow from the Pavilion Apartments and from cash reserves on hand. Future Capital Improvement and Replacements Page 14 It is anticipated that substantial additional funds will be expended for capital improvements during 2001 and subsequent years in order to keep the Pavilion Apartments competitive in the rental market. Funds for such items may be provided from sources such as Partnership cash reserves and cash flow from the Pavilion Apartments. To the extent these sources are insufficient to complete work which may be required, the Partnership may be forced to explore outside sources of financing. There can be no assurance that sufficient financing can be obtained to complete such work, and the Pavilion Apartments' ability to compete in the rental market may be adversely affected. As of March 1, 2001, carpeting in 109 apartments in the Pavilion Apartments is over 3 years old, 171 hot water heaters are over 6 years old; 136 dishwashers, 105 refrigerators and 103 stoves are over 8 years old. In addition to regular ongoing replacements of such items, other major capital items which may be required to be completed during the next few years, include but may not be limited to the following: Estimated Potential Project Costs Roof Replacements - all buildings $500,000 Asphalt Overlay for parking Lots $105,000 Shower Tile & Pan Replacements $145,000 Sprinkler System Replacement $55,000 ------------------------------------- ------------ Replacement of the roof on Building F (containing 24 residential units) is expected to commence during March 2001, at an anticipated cost of approximately $34,500. INFLATION As of the present date, inflation has not had a major impact on the operations of the Partnership. It is anticipated that future increases in operating expenses will be offset if not exceeded by corresponding increases in operating income. Page 15 Item 8.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of FJS Properties Fund I, LP as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related statements of operations, partners' capital (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001. 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. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 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 FJS Properties Fund I, LP as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As more fully described in Note 9, a lawsuit was filed against the Partnership for injuries sustained by a tenant. The ultimate resolution of this matter is not presently determinable and, accordingly, no provision for any outcome that may result has been made in these financial statements.

Page 21 FJS PROPERTIES FUND I, L.P. Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 Note 1 - Organization FJS Properties Fund 1, LP (the "Partnership") was formed under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act on October 5,1984. The Partnership owns and operates the Pavilion, a 312 unit garden apartment complex in West Palm Beach, Florida. The Partnership operates under one reportable segment. Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies Loan Acquisition Fees The Partnership amortizes fees incurred in connection with mortgage refinancings utilizing the straight-line method over the term of the related mortgage, which is currently ten years. Income Taxes The Partnership is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. The Partnership will make no provision for income taxes because all income and losses will be allocated to the Partners for inclusion in their respective tax returns. Property Investment and Depreciation Property, improvements, furniture, and equipment are carried at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The cost of maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, whereas significant betterments and renewals are capitalized. The Partnership depreciates buildings using the straight-line method over 30 years. Furniture and fixtures and improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over periods from 3 to 10 years. Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $400,012, $353,260, and $301,652 respectively. For tax purposes, the Partnership depreciates residential real property using the 18 year accelerated depreciation method for property placed in service prior to May 8, 1985. In accordance with ongoing changes in the Internal Revenue Code, the Partnership will utilize the depreciation method, which, in the opinion of the Managing General Partner, will be the most beneficial to the Partnership. Revenue Recognition Rental and interest income are recorded on the accrual method of accounting. Cash Equivalents The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Page 22 FJS PROPERTIES FUND I, L.P. Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk include cash. The Partnership had amounts on deposit with financial institutions which are approximately $33,000, $95,000, and $270,000 in excess of the amounts insured for December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The Partnership does not require collateral for financial instruments. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements ----------------------------------------------------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Advertising The Partnership expenses advertising cost as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $26,438, $37,323, and $36,321, respectively. Impairment Certain long-term assets of the Partnership, including property and furniture and fixtures, are reviewed at least annually as to whether their carrying value has become impaired, pursuant to guidance established in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." Management considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from the related operations (undiscounted and without interest charges). If impairment is deemed to exist, the assets will be written down to fair value or projected discounted cash flows from related operations. Management also reevaluates the periods of amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. Note 3 - Partnership Agreement Pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement, which expires December 31, 2009, the General Partner is liable for all general obligations of the Partnership to the extent not paid by the Partnership. The Limited Partners are not liable for expenses, liabilities, or obligations of the Partnership beyond the amount of their contributed capital. In addition, adjusted cash from operations is allocated, after payment of the Partnership Management Fee to the Managing General Partner, 99% to the Limited Partners, and 1% to the General Partner. Taxable income and loss are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner subsequent to the release of the Limited Partners' funds to the Partnership, which occurred on May 1, 1986. Prior to the release of funds, taxable income and loss were allocated 99% to the General Partner and 1% to the Original Limited Partner. Page 23 FJS PROPERTIES FUND I, L.P. Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 Allocations of net income or loss among the Partners in the accrual basis financial statements will be in conformity with the allocations of taxable income or loss from operations. Note 4 - Other Assets A summary of other assets is as follows: 2001 2000 -------- ------ Cash in escrow - replacement reserves $ 90,931 $ 89,273 Loan acquisition fees - net of amortization of $188,663 and $164,256 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively 55,432 79,839 Deposits 20,490 20,490 ----------- $ 166,853 $ 189,602 ========== ========== ------------------------------------ --------------- ------------- Note 5 - Mortgage Payable The Partnership has a loan of $5,000,000 that is serviced by Washington Mutual FSB that is collateralized by a first mortgage lien on the property and all personal property and income from the project. This loan is for a term of ten years with an interest rate of 9.75% per annum. The loan is repayable in equal monthly installments of $44,557 for principal and interest with a balloon payment due in ten years. The loan requires deposits with the lender for real estate taxes, insurance premiums, a debt service reserve of one month's payment, as well as deposits for replacement reserves for the project. These amounts are included in cash escrow and other assets on the balance sheet. At December 31, 2001 maturities of the mortgage payable are as follows: 2002 104,586 2003 114,492 2004 4,246,710 ---------- Total mortgage payable $4,465,788 ========== ----------------------------------- ------------------- The fair value of the Partnership's mortgage payable, which is determined by discounting expected cash flows based on the Partnership's projected current incremental borrowing rate, is approximately equal to the current obligation. Note 6 - Related Party Transactions The Managing General Partner, pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, has earned Property Management Fees of $117,233, $118,518, and $107,540 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively, of which, $94,110, $94,242, and $86,032, respectively, was paid to an unaffiliated Florida based management company. These fees are based on a percentage of gross rental income as defined in the agreement. Also pursuant to the Partnership Agreement the Managing General Partner has earned Partnership Management Fees of $0, $0, and $3,172, for the years ended December 31, 2001, Page 24 FJS PROPERTIES FUND I, L.P. Notes to Financial Statements (Continued) December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 2000, and 1999, respectively, which represents 4% of adjusted cash flow as defined in the agreement. Additionally, in accordance with provisions of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership has agreed to pay to the Managing General Partner, administrative service fees. These fees amounted to $30,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001, $24,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, and $27,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999. The Managing General Partner received distributions from cash flows of $0, $0, and $760, during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Note 7 - Income Taxes The reconciliation of net (loss) as reported in the statements of operations and as would be reported for tax purposes for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999, are as follows: December 31, -------------------------------- ------------------------------------ 2001 2000 1999 ------ ------ ----- Net (loss) - statement of operations $ (104,522) $ (48,593) $ (50,566) Tax depreciation in excess of book depreciation (40,496) (57,797) (67,099) ----------- ----------- ---------- Net (loss) for tax purposes $ (145,018) $ (106,390) $ (117,665) =========== =========== =========== -------------------------------- ------------ ------------ ------------- Note 8 - Tender Offer On and as of December 31, 2001, beneficial interests in an aggregate of 2,437 units were acquired from unaffiliated holders by three parties at a price of $105 per unit, pursuant to a tender offer filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Note 9 - Contingency In 2001, a lawsuit was filed against the Partnership seeking damages in excess of $15,000 for injuries sustained by a tenant of the property. At the time of this alleged incident the Partnership was insured under a $1,000,000 primary, general liability policy issued by Reliance Insurance Company of Illinois and under an excess liability policy issued by Twin City Fire Insurance Company providing excess liability coverage of $20 million. The excess coverage policy only covers liability over and above the underlying $1,000,000 of coverage, and does not provide any coverage of the first $1,000,000 of any potential judgment. In June 2001, Reliance filed for bankruptcy-court protection and was liquidated in October 2001. The ultimate resolution of this matter is not presently determinable and, accordingly, no provision for any outcome that may result has been made in these financial statements.

Brennan as Debtor, pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (Case No 95-35502). By virtue of his appointment as Trustee, Mr. Conway is empowered to vote (and with the approval of the Court), to sell Mr. Brennan's Common Stock and to direct the disposition of the sale proceeds. As a result Mr. Conway, in his capacity as Trustee, may be deemed the beneficial owner of such shares and a controlling person of FJS Properties, Inc. and Registrant.
