At the time of filing of the Form 8-K by the Registrant disclosing the acquisition of the outstanding limited and general partnership interests of the Arrowhead Apartments Associates Limited Partnership (“Arrowhead”) of Palatine, Illinois, and the Moorings Apartments Associates Limited Partnership (“Moorings”) of Roselle, Illinois, from Capital Realty Investors-II Limited Partnership (“CRI-II”), the financial statements of the acquired partnerships were not available. The Registrant indicated that it would file the necessary financial information within seventy-one days after the date that the Form 8-K had to be filed, or no later than February 2, 2005.

Concurrently in the Form 8-K, the Registrant stated that the acquisitions of partnership interests in Blackburn Limited Partnership and Second Blackburn Limited Partnership (collectively, “Blackburn”), which were to be acquired pursuant to previously-entered into Purchase and Sale Agreements, were expected to be consummated in December 2004. The Registrant provided this information as Arrowhead, Moorings and Blackburn were related businesses and under the common control by affiliates of CRI-II and the acquisitions of the partnerships interests in such partnerships were originally intended to be consummated contemporaneously. The acquisitions of the partnership interests in Blackburn consummated on December 29, 2004 and, in accordance with applicable SEC rules, the necessary financial information relating to such partnerships is required to be filed no later than March 16, 2005.
