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 NPI Realty Management Corp. the ("Managing General Partner"), all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 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-K 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 following transactions with affiliates of the Managing General Partner were charged to expense in 1997 and 1996: For the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 1996 (in thousands) Reimbursement for services of affiliates (primarily included in general and administrative expenses) $ 62 $130 In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the general partner receives cash distributions as follows: (a) a partnership management incentive not to exceed ten percent, determined on a cumulative, noncompounded basis, of cash from operations available for distribution (as defined in the partnership agreement) distributed to partners, and (b) a continuing interest representing a two percent share of cash distributions, after allocation of the partnership management incentive. A portion of the partnership management incentive is subordinated to certain cash distributions to the limited partners. Cash distributions to the general partner for the periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are as follows: 1997 1996 (in thousands) Partnership management incentive $ 40 $ 40 Continuing interest 15 15 Total $ 55 $ 55 NOTE C - DISTRIBUTIONS The Partnership made distributions in May 1997 and June 1996, of approximately $794,000, including $739,000 distributed to the limited partners ($20 per limited partnership unit) and $55,000 to the general partner. A cash distribution of approximately $35,906,000 was made in July 1997 from sales proceeds. Approximately $34,992,000 was distributed to the limited partners and approximately $914,000 was distributed to the general partner.

The Partnership has a controlling interest in two joint venture partnerships, Aurora/GHI Associates No. 1, and North Coast Syracuse Limited Partnership. The Partnership has a non-controlling interest in the joint venture Growth Hotel Investors Combined Fund No. 1. On June 24, 1997, Aurora/GHI Associates No. 1 sold its investment property, Hampton Inn-Aurora for a purchase price of approximately $4,546,000. Additionally, North Coast Syracuse Limited Partnership sold its investment property, Hampton Inn-Syracuse for a sales price of approximately $1,953,000. Finally, on June 24, 1997, Hampton/GHI Associates No. 1 ("Hampton/GHI"), a joint venture in which Growth Hotel Investors Combined Fund No. 1 owns 80% sold 17 of its 18 investment properties, Hampton Inn-Memphis-I-40, Hampton Inn-Columbia West, Hampton Inn-Spartanburg, Hampton Inn-Little Rock, Hampton Inn-Amarillo,Hampton Inn-Greenville, Hampton Inn-Charleston, Hampton Inn-Memphis-Poplar, Hampton Inn-Greensboro, Hampton Inn-Birmingham, Hampton Inn-Atlanta, Hampton Inn-Chapel Hill, Hampton Inn-Dallas, Hampton Inn-Nashville, Hampton Inn-San Antonio, Hampton Inn-Madison Heights, Hampton Inn-Northlake for a purchase price of approximately $105,936,000. The investment properties were sold to an unrelated third party, Equity Inns Partnership, L.P., a Tennessee limited partnership. The properties were sold in accordance with the settlement of the class action lawsuit brought in connection with the tender offer made by Devon Associates (discussed in Item 3 of the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 1996). Hampton/GHI's last hotel property, the Hampton Inn-Mountain Brook, was sold on August 1, 1997 for a sales price of $8,651,000. The aggregate sale price for all 21 properties was approximately $125,649,000. The Partnership received net proceeds, after satisfaction of outstanding indebtedness and closing costs, from the sale of its investment properties of approximately $14,447,000. In addition, the Partnership received approximately $19,416,000 from its unconsolidated joint venture in distributions from the sale of its properties. The Partnership made a distribution of $34,992,000 ($947.48 per unit) to its limited partners and approximately $914,000 to the General Partners from these net proceeds in July 1997. It is anticipated that the Partnership will be dissolved during the second half of 1997 and the remaining proceeds, after establishment of sufficient reserves, will be distributed to the partners. In connection with the sale of Hampton/GHI of its properties, the Partnership's joint venture partner, Hampton Inns, Inc. ("Hampton"), was to be distributed a portion of the net sale proceeds. However, pursuant to the terms of the Hampton/GHI Joint Venture Agreement, Hampton is obligated to contribute to Hampton/GHI an amount equal to the deficit of its capital account, which amount is in excess of the amount to be distributed to Hampton. As a result, the Partnership has set aside as a reserve the amount which otherwise would have been distributed to Hampton pending the payment by Hampton of its deficit restoration obligation. The Partnership is hopeful that Hampton will make its deficit restoration obligation payment during 1997. The Partnership recognized a gain of approximately $3,794,000 due to the sale of its investment properties and the properties in which the Partnership had a controlling interest. In addition, the Partnership was allocated approximately $15,474,000 from its unconsolidated joint venture, Growth Hotel Investors Combined Fund No. 1, from the sale of seventeen of the joint venture's eighteen properties. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement with respect to the class actions brought by limited partners of the Partnership and Growth Hotel Investors II ("GHI II"), an affiliated partnership, against among others, the Partnership, GHI II and their general partners, the Partnership and GHI II were required to pay the plaintiffs' attorneys' fees associated with such actions. As a result, an aggregate of $1,800,000 ($583,000 of which is allocable to the Partnership) was paid in the third quarter of 1997. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS On June 24, 1997 and August 1, 1997, the Partnership sold all of its investment properties and all of its joint venture properties as discussed in "Note E - Sale of Properties." The Partnership's net income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997, was approximately $19,146,000 and $19,424,000, respectively, compared to net income of approximately $914,000 and $1,366,000, respectively, for the same periods of 1996. The increase in net income is primarily attributable to the increase in revenue from the Partnership's unconsolidated joint venture due to the sale of seventeen of the eighteen properties in the joint venture. The Partnership was allocated approximately $15,474,000 of the gain from the sale of these properties. Also contributing to the increase in net income is the gain on sale of investment properties due to the sale of the Partnership's investment properties. The change in minority interest in joint ventures' operations is due to the sale of the Hampton Inn- Aurora. (See "Note E- Sale of Properties" for more information relating to these sales.) In addition, general and administrative and interest expenses decreased and interest income increased. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is due to a decrease in expense reimbursements in 1997. Increased expense reimbursements in 1996 were attributable to the combined transition efforts of the administrative offices during the year-end close, preparation of the 1995 10-K and tax return (including the limited partner K-1s), filing of the first two quarterly reports, and transition of asset management responsibilities to the new administration. The decrease in interest expense is due to the timing of payments in the prior year. The increase in interest income is related to an increase in interest- bearing reserves. Offsetting the above increases to net income are increases in depreciation expense and litigation settlement expense. The litigation settlement in 1997 relates to amounts due in connection with the legal settlement as discussed in "Note E- Sale of Properties". The increase in depreciation expense is due to the purchase of assets in 1996 and 1997 related to renovations at the Partnership's properties. At June 30, 1997, the Partnership had unrestricted cash of approximately $37,095,000 as compared to approximately $3,780,000 at June 30, 1996. Net cash provided by operations decreased due to increases in accounts receivable and other assets, and decreases in accounts payable and other liabilities as the result of timing of receipts and payments. Net cash provided by investing activities increased due to the receipt of approximately $19,972,000 in net proceeds from the sale of investment properties sold during the second quarter of 1997, as discussed above. In addition, unconsolidated joint venture distributions increased due to the sale of seventeen of the joint venture's eighteen properties. Net cash used in financing activities increased due to the payoff of the mortgages encumbering Hampton Inn- Albuquerque and Hampton Inn- Aurora. In connection with the sale of Hampton/GHI of its properties, the Partnership's joint venture partner, Hampton Inns, Inc. ("Hampton"), was to be distributed a portion of the net sale proceeds. However, pursuant to the terms of the Hampton/GHI Joint Venture Agreement, Hampton is obligated to contribute to Hampton/GHI an amount equal to the deficit of its capital account, which amount is in excess of the amount to be distributed to Hampton. As a result, the Partnership has set aside as a reserve the amount which otherwise would have been distributed to Hampton pending the payment by Hampton of its deficit restoration obligation. The Partnership is hopeful that Hampton will make its deficit restoration obligation payment during 1997. Cash distributions were made in the second quarters of 1997 and 1996 totaling approximately $794,000 each. Approximately $739,000 was paid to the limited partners and approximately $55,000 was distributed to the general partner. A cash distribution of approximately $35,906,000 was made in July 1997 from sales proceeds. Approximately $34,992,000 was distributed to the limited partners and approximately $914,000 was distributed to the general partner. It is anticipated that the Partnership will be dissolved during the second half of 1997 and the remaining proceeds, after establishment of sufficient reserves, will be distributed to the partners. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement with respect to the class actions brought by limited partners of the Partnership and Growth Hotel Investors II ("GHI II"), an affiliated partnership, against among others, the Partnership, GHI II and their general partners, the Partnership and GHI II were required to pay the plaintiffs' attorneys' fees associated with such actions. As a result, an aggregate of $1,800,000 ($583,000 of which is allocable to the Partnership) was paid in the third quarter of 1997. ITEM 6.
