NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

The information contained in the following notes to the unaudited financial statements is condensed from that which would appear in the annual audited financial statements. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements included herein should be reviewed in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes thereto contained in the National Tax Credit Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012. Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire year.

In the opinion of the Partnership’s management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation. The balance sheet at December 31, ~~2011~~2012 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

Organization

The Partnership, formed under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act, was organized on March 7, 1989. The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in other limited partnerships (the "“Local Partnerships"”) which own or lease and operate multifamily housing complexes (“Apartment Complexes”) that are eligible for low-income housing tax credits or, in certain cases, for historic rehabilitation tax credits ("“Tax Credits"”). The general partner of the Partnership ~~(the "General Partner")~~ is National Partnership Investments, ~~Corp.~~LLC, a California limited liability company ("NAPICO"), aor ~~California~~the ~~corporation~~“General Partner”). The General Partner is a subsidiary of ~~Apartment~~Bethesda ~~Investment~~Holdings ~~and~~II, ~~Management Company (“Aimco”)~~LLC, a ~~publicly~~privately ~~traded~~held real estate ~~investment~~asset ~~trust~~management company (“Bethesda”).

OnAt ~~January~~ March 31, ~~2012,~~2013 an affiliate of the General Partner entered into a management agreement with a third party management services company for the management of a portfolio of approximately 147 properties with 10,184 units held by entities, including the Partnership, in which Aimco and ~~its~~December ~~affiliates have minority limited and general partner interests. On January~~ 31, 2012, ~~an affiliate of~~ the ~~General~~Partnership ~~Partner~~had ~~also~~outstanding ~~entered into an option agreement with the management services company pursuant to which it granted the company the exclusive option~~23,464 ~~for~~limited apartnership ~~period ending on December 27, 2013, to purchase the minority~~ interests ~~in the portfolio held by Aimco and its affiliates~~. ~~Aimco expects the sale of such interests to be completed later this year, pending the satisfaction of certain closing conditions.~~

At September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Partnership had outstanding 23,596 limited partnership interests.

The General Partner has a 1% interest in operating profits and losses of the Partnership. The limited partners will be allocated the remaining 99% interest in proportion to their respective investments.

The Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2029, unless terminated prior to that date, pursuant to the partnership agreement or law.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Partnership’s management evaluated subsequent events through the time this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was filed.

Method of Accounting for Investments in Local Partnerships

The investments in Local Partnerships are accounted for using the equity method. Acquisition, selection and other costs related to the acquisition of the projects acquired are capitalized as part of the investment accounts and are being amortized by the straight line method over the estimated lives of the underlying assets, which is generally 30 years.

Net ~~Income (~~Loss) Per Limited Partnership Interest

Net ~~income (~~loss) per limited partnership interest was computed by dividing the limited partners’ share of net ~~income (~~loss) by the number of limited partnership interests outstanding at the beginning of the year. The number of limited partnership interests used was 23,~~596~~464 and 23,~~646~~596 for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and ~~2011~~2012, respectively.

Variable Interest Entities

The Partnership consolidates any variable interest entities in which the Partnership holds a variable interest and is the primary beneficiary. Generally, a variable interest entity, or VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics: (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the entity that has (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

In determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Partnership considers qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of the Partnership’s investment; the obligation or likelihood for the Partnership or other investors to provide financial support; and the similarity with and significance to the business activities of the Partnership and the other investors. Significant judgments related to these determinations include estimates about the current and future fair values and performance of real estate held by these VIEs and general market conditions.

At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and December 31, ~~2011~~2012, the Partnership ~~holds~~held variable interests in ~~4 and 5~~ 3 VIEs, ~~respectively,~~ for which the Partnership iswas not the primary beneficiary. The Partnership has concluded, based on its qualitative consideration of the partnership agreement, the partnership structure and the role of the general partner in each of the Local Partnerships, that the general partner of each of the Local Partnerships is the primary beneficiary of the respective Local Partnership. In making this determination, the Partnership considered the following factors:

· the general partners conduct and manage the business of the Local Partnerships;

· the general partners have the responsibility for and sole discretion over selecting a property management agent for the Local Partnerships’ underlying real estate properties;

· the general partners are responsible for approving operating and capital budgets for the properties owned by the Local Partnerships;

· the general partners are obligated to fund any recourse obligations of the Local Partnerships;

· the general partners are authorized to borrow funds on behalf of the Local Partnerships; and

· the Partnership, as a limited partner in each of the Local Partnerships, does not have the ability to direct or otherwise significantly influence the activities of the Local Partnerships that most significantly impact such entities’ economic performance.

The 43 VIEs at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 consist of Local Partnerships that are directly engaged in the ownership and management of 43 apartment properties with a total of ~~118~~51 units. The Partnership is involved with those VIEs as a non-controlling limited partner equity holder. The Partnership’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the unconsolidated VIEs is limited to the Partnership’s recorded investments in and receivables from these VIEs, which was zero at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and December 31, ~~2011~~2012. The Partnership may be subject to additional losses to the extent of any financial support that the Partnership voluntarily provides in the future.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS

AsAt ofMarch ~~September 30~~31, ~~2012~~2013, the Partnership ~~holds~~held limited partnership interests in 43 Local Partnerships, located in ~~two~~one ~~states~~state, that owned residential projects consisting of 51 apartment units. The general partners responsible for management of the Local Partnerships (the "Local Operating General Partners") are not affiliated with the General Partner of the Partnership, except as discussed below.

(b) A property disposition fee is payable to the General Partner in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) one-half of the competitive real estate commission that would have been charged by unaffiliated third parties providing comparable services in the area where the apartment complex is located, or (ii) 3 percent of the sales price received in connection with the sale or disposition of the apartment complex or local partnership interest, but in no event will the property disposition fee and all amounts payable to unaffiliated real estate brokers in connection with any such sale exceed in the aggregate, the lesser of the competitive rate (as described above) or 6 percent of such sale price. Receipt of the property disposition fee will be subordinated to the distribution of sale or refinancing proceeds by the Partnership until the limited partners have received distributions of sale or refinancing proceeds in an aggregate amount equal to (i) their 10 percent priority return for any year not theretofore satisfied (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and (ii) an amount equal to the aggregate adjusted investment (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of the limited partners. No disposition fees have been paid.

(c) The Partnership reimburses NAPICO for certain expenses. The reimbursement expense was approximately $21,000 ~~and $31,000~~ for both the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and ~~2011~~2012, ~~respectively,~~ and is included in general and administrative expenses. At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and December 31, ~~2011~~2012, approximately $23,000 and ~~zero~~$2,000, respectively, is owed to NAPICO and is included in accrued fees due to affiliates.

As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013, the fees due to the General Partner exceeded the Partnership’s cash. The Partnership Agreement provides that the fees and advances due to the General Partner may only be paid from the Partnership’s available cash, however, the Partnership still remains liable for all such amounts.

NTC, or another affiliate of the General Partner, is the Local Operating General Partner in ~~three of~~ the Partnership's ~~four~~three Local Partnerships. In addition, NTC is either a special limited partner or an administrative general partner in each Local Partnership.

NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 825, “Financial Instruments”, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. Fair value is defined as the amount at which the instruments could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013, the Partnership believes that the carrying amount of other assets and liabilities reported on the balance sheet that require such disclosure approximated their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

NOTE 5 – CONTINGENCIES

The General Partner is involved in various lawsuits arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management and the General Partner, the claims will not result in any material liability to the Partnership.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

Operations.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements in certain circumstances. Certain information included in this Quarterly Report contains or may contain information that is forward-looking within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Actual results may differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements and, in addition, will be affected by a variety of risks and factors, some of which are beyond the Partnership’s control, including, without limitation: financing risks, including the availability and cost of financing and the risk that the Partnership’s cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest; national and local economic conditions, including the pace of job growth and the level of unemployment; the terms of governmental regulations that affect the Partnership and its investment in Local Partnerships and interpretations of those regulations; the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates; real estate risks, including fluctuations in real estate values and the general economic climate in local markets and competition for residents in such markets ; litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting or defending claims and any adverse outcomes; and possible environmental liabilities, including costs, fines or penalties that may be incurred due to necessary remediation of contamination of properties presently owned or previously owned by the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested. Readers should carefully review the Partnership’s financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the other documents the Partnership files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The General Partner monitors developments in the area of legal and regulatory compliance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership’s primary source of funds is the receipt of distributions from Local Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested. It is not expected that any of the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership invested will generate cash from operations sufficient to provide distributions to the Limited Partners. Such cash from operations, if any, would first be used to meet operating expenses of the Partnership. The Partnership's investments are not readily marketable and may be affected by adverse general economic conditions which, in turn, could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the Apartment Complexes, the Local Partnerships and the Partnership. These problems may result from a number of factors, many of which cannot be controlled by the General Partner. In order to replenish the Partnership's cash reserves, the Partnership intends to generate additional cash from sales ~~and refinancings~~ of certain properties owned by Local Partnerships and through sales of the Partnership’s limited partner interests in Local Partnerships.

As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and December 31, ~~2011~~2012, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $8045,000 and $~~110~~58,000, respectively. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3013,000 is due to approximately $8012,000 ofand ~~cash used in operating activities, partially offset by approximately~~ $501,000 of cash ~~provided~~used byin operating and investing activities., respectively. Cash ~~provided~~used byin investing activities consisted of ~~proceeds~~an ~~from~~advance ~~the~~to ~~sale of limited partnership interest in~~ one Local Partnership.

Distributions from the Local Partnerships are accounted for as a reduction of the investment balance until the investment balance is reduced to zero. When the investment balance has been reduced to zero, subsequent distributions received are recognized as income. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Partnership received operating distributions of approximately $60,000 from four Local Partnerships in which it does not have an investment balance, which were recognized as income. There were no such distributions received during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, 2013 and 2012.

The Partnership does not have the ability to assess Limited Partners for additional capital contributions to provide capital if needed by the Partnership or Local Partnerships. Accordingly, if circumstances arise that cause the Local Partnerships to require capital in addition to that contributed by the Partnership and any equity of the local general partners, the only sources from which such capital needs will be able to be satisfied (other than the limited reserves available at the Partnership level) will be (i) third-party debt financing (which may not be available if, as expected, the Apartment Complexes owned by the Local Partnerships are already substantially leveraged), (ii) other equity sources (which could adversely affect the Partnership's interest in operating cash flow and/or proceeds of sale or refinancing of the Apartment Complexes and possibly even result in adverse tax consequences to the Limited Partners), or (iii) the sale or disposition of Apartment Complexes. There can be no assurance that any of such sources would be readily available in sufficient proportions to fund the capital requirements of the Local Partnerships. If such sources are not available, the Local Partnerships would risk foreclosure on their Apartment Complexes if they were unable to renegotiate the terms of their first mortgages and any other debt secured by the Apartment Complexes, which would have significant adverse tax consequences to the Limited Partners.

Results of Operations

The Partnership, as a limited partner, does not have a contractual relationship with the Local Partnerships or exercise control over the activities and operations, including refinancing or selling decisions of the Local Partnerships that would require or allow for consolidation. Accordingly, the Partnership accounts for its investment in the Local Partnerships using the equity method. Thus the individual investments are carried at cost plus the Partnership’s share of the Local Partnership’s profits less the Partnership’s share of the Local Partnership’s losses, distributions and impairment charges. However, since the Partnership is not legally liable for the obligations of the Local Partnerships, orand is not otherwise committed to providing additional support to them, it does not recognize losses once ~~its~~the Partnership’s investment in each of the Local Partnerships reaches zero. Distributions from the Local Partnerships are accounted for as a reduction of the investment balances until the investment balance is reduced to zero. Subsequent distributions received are recognized as income in the statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Partnership received operating distributions of approximately $60,000 from four Local Partnerships in which it does not have an investment balance, which were recognized as income. There were no distributions received during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, 2013 and 2012. For those investments where the Partnership has determined that the carrying value of ~~its~~the Partnership’s investments approximates the estimated fair value of those investments, the Partnership’s policy is to recognize equity in income of the Local Partnerships only to the extent of distributions received, and amortization of acquisition costs from those Local Partnerships. The Partnership recognized no equity in income or loss from Local Partnerships during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and ~~2011~~2012.

At times, advances are made to Local Partnerships. Advances made by the Partnership to the individual Local Partnerships are considered part of the Partnership's investment in limited partnerships. Advances made to Local Partnerships for which the investment has been reduced to zero are charged to expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Partnership advanced approximately $1,000 to one Local Partnership. There were no such advances from the Partnership to the Local Partnerships during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, 2012 ~~and 2011~~. While not obligated to make any advances to any of the Local Partnerships, the Partnership may make advances in order to protect its economic investment in the Local Partnerships.

At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and December 31, ~~2011~~2012, the investment balance in the ~~four~~three ~~and five~~ Local Partnerships, ~~respectively,~~ had been reduced to zero.

The Partnership’s net ~~income~~loss for the three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 was approximately $438,000 compared to net loss of approximately $7140,000 for the three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2011. The Partnership’s net loss for the nine months ended September 30,~~ 2012 ~~was approximately $85,000 compared to net income of approximately $166,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011~~. The ~~increase~~decrease in net ~~income~~loss ~~for~~was ~~the three month period is~~ due to a decrease in total operating expenses, ~~and~~partially anoffset ~~increase~~by inan ~~gain from sales of limited partnership interests in Local Partnerships. The~~ increase in ~~net~~advance ~~loss for the nine month period is due~~ to ~~decreases in gain from sales of limited partnership interests in~~ Local ~~Partnerships~~Partnership ~~and distributions from Local Partnerships~~ recognized as ~~income, partially offset by a decrease in total operating expenses~~expense.

An annual management fee is payable to the General Partner and is calculated at 0.5 percent of the original invested assets of the remaining partnerships. The management fee represents the annual recurring fee which will be paid to the General Partner for ~~its~~the ~~continuing~~General Partner’s management of the Partnership's affairs. Management fees were approximately $229,000 and $6622,000 for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012,~~2013 ~~respectively,~~ and ~~approximately $40~~2012,~~000~~ ~~and $121,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011,~~ respectively. The decrease in management fees ~~for both periods~~ is due to the sales of limited partnership interests in ~~four~~two Local Partnerships, ~~Rolling~~Glenark ~~Hills~~Landing in ~~May~~November ~~2011~~2012 and ~~Apple~~Grand ~~Tree,~~Meadows ~~Kimberly~~II ~~Court and Torres de Plata I~~ in ~~June~~August ~~2011~~2012.

Operating expenses, exclusive of the management fee, consist of legal and accounting fees for services rendered to the Partnership and general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and 2011, legal and accounting fees were approximately $17,000 and $16,000, respectively, and general and administrative expenses were approximately $7,000 and $15,000, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 ~~and 2011~~, legal and accounting fees were approximately $4527,000 and $5613,000, respectively, and general and administrative expenses were approximately $241,000 and $485,000, respectively. Legal and accounting fees ~~decreased~~increased ~~for the nine month period primarily~~ due to aan ~~decrease~~increase in legal costs associated with ~~the sale of limited partnership interests during 2011, Blue Lake litigation and~~ a review of the Partnership’s investments. ~~Legal and accounting fees remained relatively constant for the three month period.~~ The decrease in general and administrative expenses ~~for both periods~~ is primarily due to a decrease in ~~the cost of services included in the management reimbursements paid to the General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement, partially offset by an increase in~~ filing fees related to the sale of partnership interests.

Because of (i) the nature of the Apartment Complexes, (ii) the difficulty of predicting the resale market for low-income housing in the future, and (iii) the inability of the Partnership to directly cause the sale of Apartment Complexes by local general partners, but generally only to require such local general partners to use their respective best efforts to find a purchaser for the Apartment Complexes it is not possible at this time to predict whether the liquidation of substantially all of the Partnership’s assets and the disposition of the proceeds, if any, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement will be able to be accomplished promptly. If a Local Partnership is unable to sell an Apartment Complex, it is anticipated that the local general partner will either continue to operate such Apartment Complex or take such other actions as the local general partner believes to be in the best interest of the Local Partnership.

The Partnership, as a limited partner in the Local Partnerships in which it has invested, is subject to the risks incident to the management and ownership of improved real estate. The Partnership's investments are also subject to adverse general economic conditions, and accordingly, the status of the national economy, including substantial unemployment and concurrent inflation, could increase vacancy levels, rental payment defaults, and operating expenses, which in turn, could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the Apartment Complexes.

On ~~August~~November 113, 2012, the Partnership ~~assigned~~transferred its limited partnership interest in ~~Grand~~Glenark ~~Meadows~~Associates II Limited ~~Dividend~~Partnership ~~Housing Association LP~~ (“~~Grand Meadows II~~Glenark”), a Local Partnership, ~~for~~and ~~$50,000,~~received ~~which~~no ~~was~~proceeds ~~recognized~~for ~~as gain from sales of limited partnership interests in Local Partnerships during~~ the ~~three and nine months ended September 30, 2012~~transfer. The Partnership’s investment balance in ~~Grand~~Glenark ~~Meadows II~~ was zero at the date of ~~assignment and December 31, 2011~~transfer.

On ~~May~~August 251, ~~2011~~2012, the Partnership ~~sold~~assigned its limited partnership interest in ~~Rolling~~Grand ~~Hills~~Meadows ~~Apartments,~~II Limited Dividend Housing Association LP (“Grand Meadows II”), a Local Partnership, for ~~a sales price of~~ $~~300~~50,000, which was recognized as gain from sales of limited partnership interests in Local Partnerships during the ~~nine~~third ~~months~~quarter ~~ended~~of ~~September 30, 2011~~2012. The Partnership’s investment balance in ~~Rolling~~Grand ~~Hills~~Meadows II was zero at the date of ~~sale~~assignment.

The Partnership had no investment in the Blue Lake Local Partnership at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Partnership owns limited partnership interests in unconsolidated Local Partnerships, in which the Partnership’s ownership percentage ~~ranges~~is ~~from 5% to~~ 99%. However, based on the provisions of the relevant partnership agreements, the Partnership, as a limited partner, does not have a contractual relationship with the Local Partnerships that would require or allow for consolidation under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (see “Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the financial statements in “Item 1. Financial Statements”). There are no lines of credit, side agreements or any other derivative financial instruments between the Local Partnerships and the Partnership. Accordingly the Partnership’s maximum risk of loss related to these unconsolidated Local Partnerships is limited to the recorded investments in and receivables from the Local Partnerships. See “Note 2 – Investments In and Advances to Local Partnerships” of the financial statements in “Item 1. Financial Statements” for additional information about the Partnership’s investments in unconsolidated Local Partnerships.

Other

~~Aimco~~Bethesda Holdings II, LLC (“Bethesda”) and its affiliates owned 437 limited partnership interests in the Partnership representing 1.8586% of the outstanding interests in the Partnership at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013. It is possible that Bethesda or its affiliates will acquire additional limited partnership interests in the Partnership either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, unitholders holding a majority of the limited partnership interests are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters, that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the General Partner. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to ~~Aimco~~Bethesda as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to ~~Aimco~~Bethesda as its sole stockholder.

Variable Interest Entities

At ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and December 31, ~~2011~~2012, the Partnership ~~holds~~held variable interests in 4three ~~and 5~~ VIEs, ~~respectively,~~ for which the Partnership iswas not the primary beneficiary. The Partnership has concluded, based on its qualitative consideration of the partnership agreement, the partnership structure and the role of the general partner in each of the Local Partnerships, that the general partner of each of the Local Partnerships is the primary beneficiary of the respective Local Partnership. In making this determination, the Partnership considered the following factors:

· the general partners conduct and manage the business of the Local Partnerships;

· the general partners have the responsibility for and sole discretion over selecting a property management agent for the Local Partnerships’ underlying real estate properties;

· the general partners are responsible for approving operating and capital budgets for the properties owned by the Local Partnerships;

· the general partners are obligated to fund any recourse obligations of the Local Partnerships;

· the general partners are authorized to borrow funds on behalf of the Local Partnerships; and

The 4three VIEs at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 consist of Local Partnerships that are directly engaged in the ownership and management of 4three apartment properties with a total of ~~118~~51 units. The Partnership is involved with those VIEs as a non-controlling limited partner equity holder. The Partnership’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the unconsolidated VIEs is limited to the Partnership’s recorded investments in and receivables from these VIEs, which was zero at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2012~~2013 and December 31, ~~2011~~2012. The Partnership may be subject to additional losses to the extent of any financial support that the Partnership voluntarily provides in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions. Judgments and assessments of uncertainties are required in applying the Partnership’s accounting policies in many areas. The Partnership believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.

Method of Accounting for Investments in Limited Partnerships

The individual investments are carried at cost plus the Partnership’s share of the Local Partnership’s profits less the Partnership’s share of the Local Partnership’s losses, distributions and impairment charges. The Partnership is not legally liable for the obligations of the Local Partnerships and is not otherwise committed to provide additional support to them. Therefore, it does not recognize losses once its investment in each of the Local Partnerships reaches zero. Distributions from the Local Partnerships are accounted for as a reduction of the investment balance until the investment balance is reduced to zero. When the investment balance has been reduced to zero, subsequent distributions received are recognized as income on the statements of operations.

For those investments where the Partnership has determined that the carrying value of its investments approximates the estimated fair value of those investments, the Partnership’s policy is to recognize equity in income of the Local Partnerships only to the extent of distributions received and amortization of acquisition costs from those Local Partnerships. Therefore, the Partnership limits its recognition of equity earnings to the amount it expects to ultimately realize.
