Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2005, six months ended September 30, 2005 and nine months ended December 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005. Organization ------------ WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund IV, L.P., Series 2 (the "Partnership") is a California limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of California on September 27, 1993. The Partnership was formed to acquire limited partnership interests in other limited partnerships ("Local Limited Partnerships") which owns multi-family housing complexes ("Housing Complexes") that are eligible for Federal low income housing tax credits ("Low Income Housing Tax Credits"). The local general partners (the "Local General Partners") of each Local Limited Partnership retain responsibility for maintaining, operating and managing the Housing Complex. Each Local Limited Partnership is governed by its agreement of limited partnership (the "Local Limited Partnership Agreement"). The general partner of the Partnership is WNC Tax Credit Partners IV, L.P. (the "General Partner"). The general partner of the General Partner is WNC & Associates, Inc. ("Associates"). The chairman and president of Associates own substantially all of the outstanding stock of Associates. The business of the Partnership is conducted primarily through the General Partner, as the Partnership has no employees of its own. The Partnership shall continue to be in full force and effect until December 31, 2050, unless terminated prior to that date, pursuant to the partnership agreement or law. The financial statements include only activity relating to the business of the Partnership, and do not give effect to any assets that the partners may have outside of their interests in the Partnership, or to any obligations, including income taxes, of the partners. The Partnership Agreement authorized the sale of 20,000 units of limited partnership interest ("Partnership Units") at $1,000 per Partnership Unit. The offering of Partnership Units concluded in July 1995 at which time 15,600 Partnership Units representing subscriptions, net of discounts for volume purchases of more than 100 Partnership Units, in the amount of $15,241,000 had been accepted. The General Partner has a 1% interest in operating profits and losses, taxable income and losses, cash available for distribution from the Partnership and tax credits. The investors (the "Limited Partners") will be allocated the remaining 99% of these items in proportion to their respective investments. The proceeds from the disposition of any of the Housing Complexes will be used first to pay debts and other obligations per the respective Local Limited Partnership Agreement. Any remaining proceeds will then be paid to the partners of the Local Limited Partnership, including the Partnership, in accordance with the terms of the particular Local Limited Partnership Agreement. The sale of a Housing Complex may be subject to other restrictions and obligations. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that a Local Limited Partnership will be able to sell its Housing Complex. Even if it does so, there can be no assurance that any significant amounts of cash will be distributed to the Partnership. Should such distributions occur, the Limited Partners will be entitled to receive distributions from the proceeds remaining after payment of Partnership obligations 11 WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND IV, L.P., SERIES 2 (A California Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -CONTINUED For the Quarterly periods ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 (unaudited) NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued -------------------------------------------------------------- and funding reserves, equal to their capital contributions and their return on investment (as defined in the Partnership Agreement). The General Partners would then be entitled to receive proceeds equal to their capital contributions from the remainder. Any additional sale or refinancing proceeds will be distributed 90% to the Limited Partners (in proportion to their respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner. Risks and Uncertainties ----------------------- An investment in the Partnership and the Partnership"s investments in Local Limited Partnerships and their Housing Complexes are subject to risks. These risks may impact the tax benefits of an investment in the Partnership, and the amount of proceeds available for distribution to the Limited Partners, if any, on liquidation of the Partnership"s investments. Some of those risks include the following: The Low Income Housing Tax Credits rules are extremely complicated. Noncompliance with these rules results in the loss of future Low Income Housing Tax Credits and the fractional recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits already taken. In most cases the annual amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits that an individual can use is limited to the tax liability due on the person's last $25,000 of taxable income. The Local Limited Partnerships may be unable to sell the Housing Complexes at a price which would result in the Partnership realizing cash distributions or proceeds from the transaction. Accordingly, the Partnership may be unable to distribute any cash to its limited partners. Low Income Housing Tax Credits may be the only benefit from an investment in the Partnership. The Partnership has invested in a limited number of Local Limited Partnerships. Such limited diversity means that the results of operation of each single Housing Complex will have a greater impact on the Partnership. With limited diversity, poor performance of one Housing Complex could impair the Partnership's ability to satisfy its investment objectives. Each Housing Complex is subject to mortgage indebtedness. If a Local Limited Partnership failed to pay its mortgage, it could lose its Housing Complex in foreclosure. If foreclosure were to occur during the first 15 years, the loss of any remaining future Low Income Housing Tax Credits, a fractional recapture of prior Low Income Housing Tax Credits, and a loss of the Partnership's investment in the Housing Complex would occur. The Partnership is a limited partner or a non-managing member of each Local Limited Partnership. Accordingly, the Partnership will have very limited rights with respect to management of the Local Limited Partnerships. The Partnership will rely totally on the Local General Partners. Neither the Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships, nor the Local Limited Partnerships' investments in Housing Complexes, are readily marketable. To the extent the Housing Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may be subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases; limitations on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of Housing Complexes; limitations on transfers of interests in Local Limited Partnerships; limitations on removal of Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and possible changes in applicable regulations. Uninsured casualties could result in loss of property and Low Income Housing Tax Credits and recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits previously taken. The value of real estate is subject to risks from fluctuating economic conditions, including employment rates, inflation, tax, environmental, land use and zoning policies, supply and demand of similar properties, and neighborhood conditions, among others. The ability of Limited Partners to claim tax losses from the Partnership is limited. The IRS may audit the Partnership or a Local Limited Partnership and challenge the tax treatment of tax items. The amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits and tax losses allocable to the limited partners could be reduced if the IRS were successful in such a challenge. The alternative minimum tax could reduce tax benefits from an investment in the Partnership. Changes in tax laws could also impact the tax benefits from an investment in the Partnership and/or the value of the Housing Complexes. Substantially all of the Low Income Housing Tax Credits anticipated to be realized from the Local Limited Partnerships have been realized. The Partnership does not anticipate being allocated any Low Income Housing Tax Credits from the 12 WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND IV, L.P., SERIES 2 (A California Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -CONTINUED For the Quarterly periods ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 (unaudited) NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued -------------------------------------------------------------- Local Limited Partnerships in the future. Until the Local Limited Partnerships have completed the 15 year Low Income Housing Tax Credit compliance period, risks exist for potential recapture of prior Low Income Housing Tax Credits. No trading market for the Partnership Units exists or is expected to develop. Limited Partners may be unable to sell their Partnership Units except at a discount and should consider their Partnership Units to be a long-term investment. Individual Limited Partners will have no recourse if they disagree with actions authorized by a vote of the majority of Limited Partners. The Partnership currently has insufficient working capital to fund its operations. Associates has agreed to continue providing advances sufficient enough to fund the operations and working capital requirements of the Partnership through March 31, 2009. Anticipated future and existing cash resources of the Partnership are not sufficient to pay existing liabilities of the Partnership. However, substantially all of the existing liabilities of the Partnership are payable to the General Partner and/or its affiliates. Though the amounts payable to the General Partner and/or its affiliates are contractually currently payable, the Partnership anticipates that the General Partner and/or its affiliates will not require the payment of these contractual obligations until capital reserves are in excess of the aggregate of then existing contractual obligations and then anticipated future foreseeable obligations of the Partnership. The Partnership would be adversely affected should the General Partner and/or its affiliates demand current payment of the existing contractual obligations and or suspend services for this or any other reason. Exit Strategy ------------- The IRS compliance period for Low-Income Housing Tax Credit properties is generally 15 years from occupancy following construction or rehabilitation completion. Associates was one of the first in the industry to offer syndicated investments using the Low Income Housing Tax Credits. The initial programs are completing their compliance periods. As of December 31, 2005, none of the Local Limited Partnerships had completed the 15 year compliance period. With that in mind, the Partnership is continuing to review the Housing Complexes, with special emphasis on the more mature Housing Complexes such as any that have satisfied the IRS compliance requirements. The review considers many factors, including extended use requirements (such as those due to mortgage restrictions or state compliance agreements), the condition of the Housing Complexes, and the tax consequences to the Limited Partners from the sale of the Housing Complexes. Upon identifying those Housing Complexes with the highest potential for a successful sale, refinancing or syndication, the Partnership expects to proceed with efforts to liquidate them. The objective is to maximize the Limited Partners' return wherever possible and, ultimately, to wind down the Partnership. Local Limited Partnership interests may be disposed of any time by the General Partner in its discretion. While liquidation of the Housing Complexes continues to be evaluated, the dissolution of the Partnership was not imminent as of December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, no Housing Complex had been selected for disposition. Subsequent to December 31, 2005, on October 31, 2006, the Housing Complex of one Local Limited Partnership (EW, a California Limited Partnership) was sold and the Local Limited Partnership (Crossings II Limited Dividend Housing Association, Limited Partnership) was identified for disposition in October 2007 (see Note 4). Method of Accounting for Investments in Local Limited Partnerships ------------------------------------------------------------------ The Partnership accounts for its investments in Local Limited Partnerships using the equity method of accounting, whereby the Partnership adjusts its investment balance for its share of the Local Limited Partnerships' results of operations and for any contributions made and distributions received. The Partnership reviews the carrying amount of an individual investment in a Local Limited Partnership for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying 13 WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND IV, L.P., SERIES 2 (A California Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -CONTINUED For the Quarterly periods ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 (unaudited) NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued -------------------------------------------------------------- amount of such investment may not be recoverable. Recoverability of such investment is measured by the estimated value derived by management, generally consisting of the sum of the remaining future Low Income Housing Tax Credits estimated to be allocated to the Partnership and the estimated residual value to the Partnership. If an investment is considered to be impaired, the Partnership reduces the carrying value of its investment in any such Local Limited Partnership. The accounting policies of the Local Limited Partnerships, generally, are expected to be consistent with those of the Partnership. Costs incurred by the Partnership in acquiring the investments are capitalized as part of the investment and are being amortized over 30 years (See Note 2). "Equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships" for each of the periods ended December 31, 2005, September 30, 2005, June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively have been recorded by the Partnership. Management's estimate for the three, six and nine-month period is based on either actual unaudited results reported by the Local Limited Partnerships or historical trends in the operations of the Local Limited Partnerships. In subsequent annual financial statements, upon receiving the actual annual results reported by the Local Limited Partnerships, management reverses its prior estimate and records the actual results reported by the Local Limited Partnerships. Equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships allocated to the Partnership are not recognized to the extent that the investment balance would be adjusted below zero. As soon as the investment balance reaches zero, amortization of the related costs of acquiring the investment are impaired (see Note 2). If the Local Limited Partnerships reported net income in future years, the Partnership will resume applying the equity method only after its share of such net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the period(s) the equity method was suspended. The Partnership does not consolidate the accounts and activities of the Local Limited Partnerships, which are considered Variable Interest Entities under Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46-Revised, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities", because the Partnership is not considered the primary beneficiary. The Partnership's balance in investments in Local Limited Partnerships, plus the risk of recapture of tax credits previously recognized on such investments, represents the maximum exposure to loss in connection with such investments. The Partnership's exposure to loss on the Local Limited Partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Housing Complexes as well as the strength of the Local General Partners and their guarantees against Low Income Housing Tax Credit recapture. Distributions received from the Local Limited Partnerships are accounted for as a reduction of the investment balance. Distributions received after the investment has reached zero are recognized as distribution income. As of December 31, 2005 fifteen investment accounts in Local Limited Partnerships had reached a zero balance. Use of Estimates ---------------- 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 materially differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents ------------------------- The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. For all periods presented, the Partnership had no cash equivalents. Reporting Comprehensive Income ------------------------------ The Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income established standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The Partnership had no items of other comprehensive income for all periods presented, as defined by SFAS No. 130. 14 WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND IV, L.P., SERIES 2 (A California Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -CONTINUED For the Quarterly periods ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 (unaudited) NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued -------------------------------------------------------------- Income Taxes ------------ No provision for income taxes has been recorded in the financial statements as any liability and or benefits for income taxes flows to the partners of the Partnership and is their obligation and/or benefit. For income tax purposes the Partnership reports on a calendar year basis. Net Loss Per Partnership Unit ----------------------------- Net loss per Partnership Unit is calculated pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Net loss per Partnership Unit includes no dilution and is computed by dividing loss allocated to Limited Partners by the weighted average number of Partnership Units outstanding during the period. Calculation of diluted net loss per Partnership Unit is not required. Revenue Recognition ------------------- The Partnership is entitled to receive reporting fees from the Local Limited Partnerships. The intent of the reporting fees is to offset (in part) administrative costs incurred by the Partnership in corresponding with the Local Limited Partnerships. Due to the uncertainty of the collection of these fees, the Partnership recognizes reporting fees as collections are made. Amortization ------------ Acquisition fees and costs are being amortized over 30 years using the straight-line method. Amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 was $7,434 and $7,883, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 amortization expense was $14,631 and $15,766, respectively, and for the nine months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 it was $21,828 and $23,649, respectively. Impairment ---------- A loss in value from Local Limited Partnership other than a temporary decline is recorded as an impairment loss. Impairment is measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the sum of the total of the remaining Low Income Housing Tax Credits and the estimated residual value. 15 WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND IV, L.P., SERIES 2 (A California Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED For the Quarterly periods ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 (unaudited) NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS -------------------------------------------------- As of the periods presented, the Partnership had acquired limited partnership interests in twenty-two Local Limited Partnerships, each of which owns one Housing Complex consisting of an aggregate of 892 apartment units. The respective Local General Partners of the Local Limited Partnerships manage the day to day operations of the entities. Significant Local Limited Partnership business decisions, as defined, require approval from the Partnership. The Partnership, as a Limited Partner, is entitled to 96% to 99%, as specified in the Local Limited Partnership agreements, of the operating profits and losses, taxable income and losses and Low Income Housing Tax Credits of the Local Limited Partnerships. A loss in value from a Local Limited Partnership other than a temporary decline is recorded as an impairment loss. Impairment is measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the sum of the total amount of the remaining Low Income Housing Tax Credits allocated to the Partnership and the estimated residual value to the Partnership. Accordingly, the Partnership recorded an impairment loss of $275,383 and $1,560,537, during the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. There were no additional impairment losses for the periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 and December 31, 2005 and 2004. The following is a summary of the equity method activity of the investments in Local Limited Partnerships for the periods presented below:

Certain Local Limited Partnerships have incurred significant operating losses and/or have working capital deficiencies. In the event these Local Limited Partnerships continue to incur significant operating losses, additional capital contributions by the Partnership and/or the Local General Partners may be required to sustain the operations of such Local Limited Partnerships. If additional capital contributions are not made when they are required, the Partnership's investment in certain of such Local Limited Partnerships could be impaired, and the loss and recapture of the related Low Income Housing Tax Credits could occur. 19 WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND IV, L.P., SERIES 2 (A California Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED For the Quarterly periods ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 (unaudited) NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS, continued ------------------------------------------------------------- Troubled Properties ------------------- One Local Limited Partnership, Crossing II Limited Dividend Housing Association LP ("Crossings II") started to experience operational issues during the year ended March 31, 2005. As interest rates were falling, this particular market saw an increasing number of people purchasing first time homes, thereby, causing high vacancy rates. This particular area of Michigan is experiencing an overall low occupancy issue. The low occupancy was the primary reason for the properties' cash flow issues. The Local General Partner continues to make advances to the property to help fund its operations. The Partnership received all the Low Income Housing Tax Credits from Crossings II. The final credits were taken in 2007. The Local Limited Partnership's General Partner is looking to purchase the Partnership's limited partnership interest in Crossings II. The General Partner is going to post a surety bond to protect the Partnership from tax credit recapture. The anticipated closing date of this transaction is April of 2008. The Partnership has two investments, consisting of 99% limited partnership interests in each of Broken Bow Apartments I, Limited Partnership ("Broken Bow') and Sidney Apartments I, Limited Partnership ("Sidney"). Due to operational difficulties and negative cash flows in 2000, foreclosure procedures were commenced by the lender of these two Local Limited Partnerships. As a result, the Partnerships , Broken Bow and Sidney, in addition to a WNC subsidiary executed a work-out agreement with the lender (the "Agreement"), which was effective December 14, 2001. Broken Bow was required to pay to the lender $165,000 as a partial settlement of the indebtedness due and owed by Broken Bow due to the fact that their loan was a construction loan. The Partnership advanced the aforementioned monies to Broken Bow and fully reserved the amount as of March 31, 2002. The balance of the indebtedness owed to the lender by Broken Bow was satisfied by the execution of two promissory notes. Simultaneously, the balance of the indebtedness owed to the lender by Sidney was also satisfied by the execution of two promissory notes. The Partnership and a WNC subsidiary had executed a guarantee for the payment of both notes of Broken Bow and Sidney. In addition, several other commitments were made. Broken Bow and Sidney had also executed a grant deed to the lender in the event that any of the entities defaulted under the terms and provisions of the notes. The deeds were held in escrow, and if Broken Bow or Sidney defaults on either note, the lender may, at its option, record the respective deed. In addition, the Partnership had under the promissory notes assigned the lender as additional collateral all of its residual value interests, as defined, in all of the Local Limited Partnerships. The Partnership and the Local Limited Partnerships were prohibited from selling, assigning, transferring or further encumbering the Housing Complexes retained by each Local Limited Partnership without the lenders acknowledgement. On March 24, 2006 Broken Bow and Sidney had the promissory notes refinanced and as a result the Partnership and a WNC subsidiary were relieved of their obligations as guarantors for these two Local Limited Partnerships. The Partnership was also released of pledging additional collateral in the form of its residual value interests. 20 WNC HOUSING TAX CREDIT FUND IV, L.P., SERIES 2 (A California Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED For the Quarterly periods ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 (unaudited) NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS ----------------------------------- Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership has paid or is obligated to the General Partner or its affiliates the following fees: (a) Acquisition fees of up to 8% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Partnership Units as compensation for services rendered in connection with the acquisition of Local Limited Partnerships. At the end of all periods presented, the Partnership incurred acquisition fees of $1,058,950. Accumulated amortization of these capitalized costs was $580,450, $573,545, $566,640 and $543,429 as of December 31, 2005, September 30, 2005, June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005, respectively. (b) Reimbursement of costs incurred by the General Partner or an affiliate of Associates in connection with the acquisition of Local Limited Partnerships. These reimbursements have not exceeded 1.2% of the gross proceeds. As of the end of all periods presented, the Partnership incurred acquisition costs of $169,103, which have been included in investments in Local Limited Partnerships. Accumulated amortization was $109,875, $86,016, $85,724 and $85,432 as of December 31, 2005, September 30, 2005, June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005, respectively. (c) An annual asset management fee equal to the greater amount of (i) $2,000 for each apartment complex, or (ii) 0.275% of gross proceeds. In either case, the fee will be decreased or increased annually based on changes to the Consumer Price Index. However, in no event will the maximum amount exceed 0.2% of the invested assets of the Local Limited Partnerships, including the Partnership's allocable share of the mortgages, for the life of the Partnership. Asset management fees of $11,000 were incurred during each of the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. For each of the six months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, the Partnership incurred asset management fees of $22,000. Management fees of $33,000 were incurred during each of the nine months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The Partnership paid the General Partner or its affiliates $0 of those fees during each of the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the six months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 and the nine months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. (d) A subordinated disposition fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales price of real estate sold. Payment of this fee is subordinated to the limited partners receiving a preferred return of 16% through December 31, 2003 and 6% thereafter (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and is payable only if the General Partner or its affiliates render services in the sales effort. (e) The Partnership reimburses the General Partner or its affiliates for operating expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership. Operating expense reimbursements were $0 during each of the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the six months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 and the nine months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.

NOTE 4 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS -------------------------- On October 31, 2006, the Partnership sold the Housing Complex of one Local Limited Partnership, EW, a Wisconsin Limited Partnership ("EW") and the Local Limited Partnership was subsequently dissolved. EW had not completed its 15-year compliance period. The Partnership did not purchase a surety bond since the cost of the bond was equal to the amount of credits at risk for recapture. The Partnership retained a cash balance to cover any recapture. The Housing Complex was sold for the same amount as the outstanding mortgage owing. The net investment balance in this Local Limited Partnership was zero, since there was no distribution of cash there was no gain or loss for the Partnership. The disposition was due to this Local Limited Partnership experiencing operational and cash flow issues. At the time of disposition, the Partnership had advanced approximately $61,200 to this Local Limited Partnership which was not recovered and the advances were reserved. In October 2007, one additional Housing Complex has been identified for disposition (Crossing II Limited Dividend Housing Association LP ("Crossings II")). This Local Limited Partnership started to experience operational issues during the year ended March 31, 2005 and continues to have operation issues primarily due to cash flow issues. The Partnership received all of the Low Income Housing Tax Credits from Crossings II, with the final credits being taken in 2007. The Local Limited Partnership's General Partner is looking to purchase the Partnership's limited partnership interest in Crossings II. The General Partner is going to post the surety bond to protect the Partnership from recapture. The anticipated closing date of this transaction is April of 2008. 22 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Forward Looking Statements With the exception of the discussion regarding historical information, this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and other discussions elsewhere in this Form 10-Q contain forward looking statements. Such statements are based on current expectations subject to uncertainties and other factors which may involve known and unknown risks that could cause actual results of operations to differ materially from those projected or implied. Further, certain forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions about future events which may not prove to be accurate. Risks and uncertainties inherent in forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, our future cash flows and ability to obtain sufficient financing, level of operating expenses, conditions in the Low Income Housing Tax Credit property market and the economy in general, as well as legal proceedings. Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future period. Subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Partnership or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by cautionary statements in this Form 10-Q and in other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included elsewhere in this filing. The following discussion and analysis compares the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the three and six months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, and should be read in conjunction with the combined condensed financial statements and accompanying notes included within this report. Financial Condition The Partnership's assets at June 30, 2005 consisted primarily $3,000 in cash and aggregate investments in the fifteen Local Limited Partnerships of $2,172,000. Liabilities at June 30, 2005 primarily consisted of $488,000 of accrued annual asset management fees and reimbursement for expenses paid by the General Partner and/or its affiliates. The Partnership's assets at September 30, 2005 consisted primarily of $12,000 in cash and aggregate investments in the fifteen Local Limited Partnerships of $2,080,000. Liabilities at September 30, 2005 primarily consisted of $503,000 of accrued annual asset management fees and reimbursement for expenses paid by the General Partner and/or its affiliates. The Partnership's assets at December 31, 2005 consisted primarily of $17,000 in cash and aggregate investments in the fifteen Local Limited Partnerships of $1,969,000. Liabilities at December 31, 2005 primarily consisted of $517,000 of accrued annual asset management fees and reimbursement for expenses paid by the General Partner and/or its affiliates. Results of Operations Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2004. The Partnership's net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $(412,000), reflecting a decrease of approximately $1,293,000 from the net loss of $(1,705,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to the decrease in impairment loss of $1,285,000. The impairment loss can vary each year depending on the annual decrease in Low Income Tax Credits allocated to the Partnership and the current estimated residual value to the Partnership compared to the current carrying value of each of the investments. Additionally the accounting and legal expenses decreased by $6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2004 due to a timing issue of the accounting work being performed. During the three months ended June 30, 2005 there was an advance for $14,000 made to a Local Limited Partnership which was also reserved in full as of June 30, 2005 which increased bad debt by $(14,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2005. The other expenses decreased by $1,000 and the reporting fee income decreased by $(2,000) for the year ended March 31, 2006 due to the fact that Local Limited Partnerships pay the reporting fee to the Partnership when the Local Limited Partnership's cash flow will allow for the payment. There was a 23 decrease in equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships of $17,000 to$(103,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2005 from $(120,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The decrease in equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships is due to the Partnership not recognizing losses of one of the Local Limited Partnerships. The investments in such Local Limited Partnerships had reached $0 at June 30, 2005. Since the Partnership's liability with respect to its investments is limited, losses in excess of investment are not recognized. Three Months Ended September 30, 2005 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2004 The Partnership's net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $(98,000), reflecting a decrease of approximately $48,000 from the net loss of $(146,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2004. There was a decrease of equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships of $37,000 to $(83,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from $(120,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2004. Since the Partnership's liability with respect to its investments is limited, losses in excess of investment are not recognized. Additionally the reporting fee income and distribution income increased by $6,000 and $3,000, respectively for the three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2004 due to the fact that Local Limited Partnerships pay the reporting fee and distribution income to the Partnership when the Local Limited Partnership's cash flow will allow for the payment. The accounting and legal expenses decreased by $7,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2004 due to a timing issue of the accounting work being performed. The other operating expenses increased by $(3,000) and bad debt expense increased by $(3,000), due to the Partnership having to make advances to a Local Limited Partnership and reserving against those advances. Six Months Ended September 30, 2005 Compared to the Six Months Ended September 30, 2004 The Partnership's net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2005 was $(510,000), reflecting an decrease of approximately $1,341,000 from the net loss of $(1,851,000) for the six months ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to the decrease in impairment loss of $1,285,000.

The reporting fee income increased by $4,000 and the distribution income increased by $3,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2004 due to the fact that Local Limited Partnerships pay the reporting fee and distribution income to the Partnership when the Local Limited Partnership's cash flow will allow for the payment. Additionally the accounting and legal expenses decreased by $12,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2004 due to the timing issue of accounting work being performed.

Since the Partnership's liability with respect to its investments is limited, losses in excess of investment are not recognized. Additionally, there was an increase of $(6,000) in bad debt expense for the three months ended December 31, 2005 due to an advance being made during the three months ended December 30, 2005 and reserved for in the same three month period.

The decrease in net loss was primarily due to the decrease in impairment loss of $1,285,000.
