Introductory Note

This Amendment No. 33 (this “Amendment”) is filed with respect to the issuer, Century Properties Fund XIX, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), by AIMCO Properties, L.P. (“AIMCO Properties”), AIMCO-GP, Inc. (“AIMCO-GP”), Apartment Investment and Management Company (“AIMCO”), AIMCO IPLP, L.P. (“AIMCO IPLP”), AIMCO/IPT, INC. (“AIMCO/IPT”) and IPLP Acquisitions I, L.L.C. (“IPLP Acquisition” and, together with AIMCO Properties, AIMCO-GP, AIMCO, AIMCO IPLP and AIMCO/IPT, the “Reporting Persons”).

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

On December 29, 2011, AIMCO Properties terminated the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) entered into on July 28, 2011 by and among the Partnership, AIMCO Properties, and AIMCO CPF XIX Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company of which AIMCO Properties is the sole member (the “Merger Subsidiary”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger Subsidiary was to merge with and into the Partnership, with the Partnership as the surviving entity.

As a result of the termination of the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Persons intend to continuously review their investment in the Partnership in light of numerous factors, some of which are described below, the result of which may relate to or result in one or more of the transactions or events set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The factors the Reporting Persons may consider include, without limitation, general market and economic conditions, an on-going analysis of the Partnership’s business, financial condition, operations and prospects, the relative attractiveness of alternative investment opportunities, and other future developments, all of which may be considered consistent with the fiduciary obligations of the general partner of the Partnership.

In addition, from time to time and depending on the factors discussed above, the Reporting Persons may acquire additional securities of, or dispose of some or all of their holdings in, the Partnership in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Further, the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may loan funds to the Partnership which may be secured by the Partnership’s property. If any such loans are made, upon default of such loans, the Reporting Persons or their affiliates could seek to foreclose on the loan and related mortgage or security interest.

Although the foregoing reflects potential activities presently contemplated by the Reporting Persons with respect to the Partnership, the foregoing is subject to change at any time, and there can be no assurance that the Reporting Persons will take any of the actions referred to above or participate in a group that will take any of the actions referred to above.

(a)-(b) The information in lines 7 through 11 and 13 of each Reporting Person’s cover page is incorporated herein by reference.
