PART I
Item 1. Business.
General
Freedom Tax Credit Plus L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership which
was formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on August 28, 1989. The
General Partners of the Partnership are Related Freedom Associates L.P., a
Delaware limited partnership (the "Related General Partner"), and Freedom GP
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Freedom General Partner" and together with
the Related General Partner, the "General Partners"). The general partner of the
Related General Partner is Related Freedom Associates Inc., a Delaware
corporation. The General Partners are both affiliates of Related Capital
Company. On November 25, 1997, an affiliate of the Related General Partner
purchased 100% of the stock of the Freedom General Partner. Prior to such
purchase the Freedom General Partner was an affiliate of Lehman Brothers.
On February 9, 1990, the Partnership commenced a public offering (the
"Offering") of Beneficial Assignment Certificates ("BACs") representing
assignments of limited partnership interests in the Partnership ("Limited
Partnership Interests"), pursuant to a prospectus dated February 9, 1990, as
supplemented by supplements thereto dated December 7, 1990, May 10, 1991, July
10, 1991 and July 23, 1991 (as so supplemented, the "Prospectus").
The Partnership received $72,896,000 of the gross proceeds of the Offering from
4,780 investors, and the Offering was terminated on August 8, 1991. (See Item 8,
"Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.)
Investment Objectives
The Partnership was formed to invest as a limited partner in other limited
partnerships ("Local Partnerships"), each of which owns one or more leveraged
low-income multi-family residential complexes ("Apartment Complexes" or
"Properties") that are eligible for the low-income housing tax credit ("Housing
Tax Credit") enacted in the Tax Reform Act of 1986, and some of which may also
be eligible for the historic rehabilitation tax credit ("Historic Tax Credit";
together with Housing Tax Credits, the "Tax Credits"). The Partnership's
investment in each Local Partnership represents 98% to 99% of the partnership
interests in the Local Partnership. As of March 31, 2001, the Partnership had
acquired interests in forty-two Local Partnerships. As of March 31, 2001,
approximately $58,000,000 of net proceeds had been invested in such Local
Partnerships, representing all of the Partnership's net proceeds available for
investment. Subsequent to March 31, 2001 and as of the date of this filing,
there have been no additional investments, nor are any other investments
expected. See Item 2, "Properties," below.
The investment objectives of the Partnership are described below.
1. Entitle qualified BACs holders to Housing Tax Credits over the Credit Period
(as defined below) with respect to each Apartment Complex.
2. Preserve and protect the Partnership's capital.
3. Participate in any capital appreciation in the value of the Properties and
provide distributions of sale or refinancing proceeds upon the disposition of
the Properties.
4. Allocate passive losses to individual BACs holders to offset passive income
that they may realize from rental real estate investments and other passive
activities, and allocate passive losses to corporate BACs holders to offset
business income.
One of the Partnership's objectives is to entitle qualified BACs holders to
Housing Tax Credits over the period of the Partnership's entitlement to claim
Tax Credits (for each Property, generally ten years from the date of investment
or, if later, the date the Property is leased to qualified tenants; referred to
herein as the "Credit Period"). Each of the Local Partnerships in which the
Partnership has an interest has been allocated by the relevant state credit
agency the authority to recognize Housing Tax Credits during the Credit Period,
provided that the Local Partnership satisfies the rent restriction, minimum
set-aside and other requirements for recognition of the Housing Tax Credits at
all times during such period. Once a Local Partnership has become eligible to
recognize Housing Tax Credits, it may lose such eligibility and suffer an event
of "recapture" if its Property fails to remain in compliance with the Housing
Tax Credit requirements. None of the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership
has acquired an interest has suffered an event of recapture.
Housing Tax Credits with respect to a given Apartment Complex are available for
a ten-year period that commences when the property is leased to qualified
tenants. However, the annual Housing Tax Credits available in the year in which
the Apartment Complex is leased to qualified tenants must be prorated based upon
the months remaining in the year. The amount of the annual Housing Tax Credits
not available in the first year will be available in the eleventh year. Internal
Revenue Code Section 42 regulates the use of the Apartment Complexes as to
occupancy, eligibility, and unit gross rent, among other requirements. Each
Apartment Complex must meet the provisions of these regulations during each of
fifteen consecutive years in order to remain qualified to receive the credits.
Certain Apartment Complexes have extended compliance periods of up to fifty
years.
The Partnership continues to meet its primary objective of generating Housing
Tax Credits. However, there can be no assurance that the Partnership will
continue to achieve any or all of its investment objectives.
The Partnership also continues to meet its objective of allocating passive
losses to individual BACs holders to offset passive income that they may realize
from rental real estate investments and other passive activities, and allocating
passive losses to corporate BACs holders to offset business income.
As of March 31, 2001, cash distributions received from the Local Partnerships
have been relatively immaterial. Management expects that the distributions
received from the Local Partnerships will increase, although not to a level
sufficient to permit cash distributions to BACs holders. The Partnership does
not anticipate providing cash distributions to BACs holders in circumstances
other than refinancings or sales.
Segments
The Partnership operates in one segment, which is the investment in multi-family
residential property.
Competition
The real estate business is highly competitive and substantially all of the
properties acquired are subject to active competition from similar properties in
their respective vicinities. In addition, various other limited partnerships
may, in the future, be formed by the General Partners and/or their affiliates to
engage in businesses which may compete with the Partnership.
Employees
The Partnership does not have any direct employees. All services are performed
for the Partnership by its General Partners and their affiliates. The General
Partners receive compensation in connection with such activities as set forth in
Items 11 and 13. In addition, the Partnership reimburses the General Partners
and certain of their affiliates for expenses incurred in connection with the
performance by their employees of services for the Partnership in accordance
with the Partnership's Amended and Restated Agreement and Certificate of Limited
Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement").
Item 2. Properties.
The Partnership holds a 99%, 98.99% and 98% limited partnership interest in
nine, ten and twenty-three Local Partnerships, respectively. Set forth below is
a schedule of these Local Partnerships including certain information concerning
the Apartment Complexes (the "Local Partnership Schedule"). Further information
concerning these Local Partnerships and their Properties, including any
encumbrances affecting the Properties, may be found in Item 14 (a) 2; Schedule
III.

None of the Local Partnership's assets or revenue balances are greater than 10%
of the total assets or revenue balances.
All leases are generally for periods not greater than one to two years and no
tenant occupies more than 10% of the rentable square footage.
Commercial tenants (to which average rental per square foot applies) comprise
less than 5% of the rental revenues of the Local Partnerships. Rents for the
residential units are determined annually by the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development ("HUD") and reflect increases, if any, in consumer price
indices in various geographic areas.
Management of the General Partners periodically reviews the physical state of
the properties and suggests to the respective Local General Partners budget
improvements which are generally funded from cash flow from operations or
release of replacement reserve escrows.
Management of the General Partners periodically reviews the insurance coverage
of the Properties and believes such coverage is adequate.
See Item 1, Business, above for the general competitive conditions to which the
Properties described above are subject.
Real estate taxes are calculated using rates and assessed valuations determined
by the township or city in which the Property is located. Such taxes have
approximated 1% of the aggregate cost of the Properties as shown in Schedule III
to the financial statements included herein.
The General Partners generally require that the general partners of the Local
Partnerships ("Local General Partners") undertake an obligation to fund
operating deficits of the Local Partnership (up to a stated maximum amount)
during a limited period of time (typically three to five years) following the
achievement of break-even operations ("Operating Deficit Guarantees"). Under the
terms of the Operating Deficit Guarantees, amounts funded are treated as
operating loans which do not bear interest and which will be repaid only out of
50% of available cash flow or out of available net sale or refinancing proceeds.
As of March 31, 2001, all Operating Deficit Guarantees have expired and $319,638
of operating loans are outstanding. In cases where the General Partners deem it
appropriate, the obligations of a Local General Partner under the Operating
Deficit Guarantees have been secured by letters of credit and/or cash escrow
deposits.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
None.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
None.
PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related Security Holder
Matters.
As of March 31, 2001, the Partnership had issued and has outstanding 72,896
Limited Partnership Interests, each representing a $1,000 capital contribution
to the Partnership, or an aggregate capital contribution of $72,896,000. All of
the issued and outstanding Limited Partnership Interests have been issued to
Freedom Assignor Inc. (the "Assignor Limited Partner"), which has in turn issued
72,896 BACs to the purchasers thereof for an aggregate purchase price of
$72,896,000. Each BAC represents all of the economic and virtually all of the
ownership rights attributable to a Limited Partnership Interest held by the
Assignor Limited Partner. BACs may be converted into Limited Partnership
Interests at no cost to the holder (other than the payment of transfer costs not
to exceed $100), but Limited Partnership Interests so acquired are not
thereafter convertible into BACs. As of May 7, 2001, the Partnership has 4,103
registered holders of an aggregate of 72,896 BACs.
Neither the BACs nor the Limited Partnership Interests are traded on any
established trading market. The Partnership does not intend to include the BACs
for quotation on NASDAQ or for listing on any national or regional stock
exchange or any other established securities market. The Revenue Act of 1987
contained provisions which have an adverse impact on investors in "publicly
traded partnerships." Accordingly, the General Partners have imposed
restrictions limiting the transferability of the BACs and the Limited
Partnership Interests in secondary market transactions. These restrictions
should prevent a public trading market from developing that would adversely
affect the ability of an investor to liquidate his or her investment quickly. It
is expected that such procedures will remain in effect until such time, if ever,
as further revision of the Revenue Act of 1987 may permit the Partnership to
lessen the scope of the restrictions.
All of the Partnership's general partnership interests, representing an
aggregate capital contribution of $2,000, are held by the two General Partners.
There are no material restrictions in the Partnership Agreement on the ability
of the Partnership to make distributions. The Partnership has made no
distributions to the BACs holders as of March 31, 2001. The Partnership does not
anticipate providing cash distributions to its BACs holders other than from net
refinancing or sales proceeds.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
During the year ended March 31, 2001, the primary sources of liquidity included
working capital, interest earned on working capital, and distributions received
from the Local Partnerships. None of these sources generated substantial amounts
of funds.
Working capital of approximately $39,000 (unconsolidated) remains as of March
31, 2001. It is used to pay operating expenses of the Partnership, including
Partnership management fees payable to the General Partners and advances to
Local Partnerships if warranted. The Partnership is dependent upon the support
of the General Partners and certain of its affiliates in order to meet its
obligations at the Partnership level. The General Partners and these affiliates
have agreed to continue such support for the next year.
During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, cash and cash equivalents of the
Partnership and its forty-two Local Partnerships increased approximately
$188,000 primarily due to cash provided by operating activities ($1,648,000) and
a net increase in due to local general partners and affiliates relating to
investing and financing activities ($166,000) which exceeded capital
improvements ($771,000) and repayments of mortgage loans ($892,000). Included in
the adjustments to reconcile the net loss to cash provided by operating
activities is depreciation and amortization ($5,104,000) and a loss on
impairment of assets ($2,065,000).
During the years ended March 31, 2001 ("Fiscal Year 2001"), March 31, 2000
("Fiscal Year 2000") and March 31, 1999 ("Fiscal Year 1999") the amounts
received from the Local Partnerships were $26,796, $24,406 and $16,630,
respectively. Cash distributions from Local Partnerships are not expected to
reach a level sufficient to permit cash distributions to BACs holders. These
distributions, as well as the working capital referred to in the paragraph
above, will be used to meet the operating expenses of the Partnership.
Partnership management fees owed to the General Partners amounting to
approximately $4,180,000 and $3,504,000 were accrued and unpaid as of March 31,
2001 and 2000, respectively. Without the General Partner's continued accrual
without payment, the Partnership will not be in a position to meet its
obligations. The General Partners have continued allowing the accrual without
payment of these amounts but are under no obligation to continue to do so.
Effective January 1, 1999 the State of California now requires owners of a
property benefiting from FHA insured mortgages under Section 236 or 221(a)(3) to
provide a nine month notice of contract termination or prepayment of the FHA
insured loan. In addition, the owner must offer the properties for sale to those
entities who agree to maintain the property as affordable housing.
On October 20, 1999 President Clinton signed the Fiscal Year 2000 VA, the HUD
Independent Agencies Appropriations Act (the "Appropriations Act"). The
Appropriations Act contains revisions to the HUD Mark-to-Market Program and
other HUD programs concerning the preservation of the HUD housing stock. On
December 29, 1999 HUD issued Notice H99-36 addressing "Project Based Section 8
Contracts Expiring in Fiscal Year 2000," reflecting the changes in the
Appropriations Act and superceding earlier HUD Notices 98-34, 99-08, 99-15,
99-21 and 99-32. Notice 99-36 clarifies many of the earlier uncertainties with
respect to the earlier HUD Section 8 Mark-to-Market Programs and continued the
Mark-to-Market Program which allows owners with Section 8 contracts to increase
the rents to market levels where contract rents are currently below market. As
of March 31, 2001, none of the Local Partnerships have opted to enter the
Mark-to-Market Program and therefore this has no impact on the Partnership.
For a discussion of contingencies affecting a certain Local Partnership, see
"Results of Operations of a Certain Local Partnership" below. Since the maximum
loss the Partnership would be liable for is its net investment in the Local
Partnerships, the resolution of the existing contingencies is not anticipated to
impact future results of operations, liquidity or financial condition in a
material way. However, the Partnership's loss of its investment in a Local
Partnership would eliminate the ability to generate future Housing Tax Credits
from such Local Partnership and may also result in recapture of Housing Tax
Credits if the investment is lost before the expiration of the Credit Period.
Except as described above, management is not aware of any trends or events,
commitments or uncertainties, which have not otherwise been disclosed, that will
or are likely to impact liquidity in a material way. Management believes the
only impact would be from laws that have not yet been adopted. The portfolio is
diversified by the location of the properties around the United States so that
if one area of the country is experiencing downturns in the economy, the
remaining properties in the portfolio may not be affected. However, the
geographic diversification of the portfolio may not protect against a general
downturn in the national economy. The Partnership has fully invested the
proceeds of its offering in 42 Local Partnerships, all of which have their
Housing Tax Credits in place. The Housing Tax Credits are attached to the
project for a period of ten years and are transferable with the property during
the remainder of the ten year period. If trends in the real estate market
warranted the sale of a property, the remaining Housing Tax Credits would
transfer to the new owner, thereby adding significant value to the property on
the market.
Results of Operations
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of", the Partnership is required to review long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable.
The Partnership periodically compares the carrying value of its Properties to
its estimate of the sum of undiscounted future cash flows and the fair value of
remaining Tax Credits, to determine if the carrying value of the Property is
impaired. If the Property is considered impaired based on this analysis, an
impairment loss is recorded in order to write down the Property to its fair
value. The determination of fair value is based not only upon future cash flows,
which rely upon estimates and assumptions including expense growth, occupancy
and rental rates, but also upon market capitalization and discount rates as well
as other market indicators. The General Partners believe that the estimates and
assumptions used are appropriate in evaluating the carrying amount of the
Partnership's interest in the Properties. However, changes in market conditions
and circumstances may occur in the near term which would cause these estimates
and assumptions to change, which, in turn, could cause the amounts ultimately
realized upon the sale or other disposition of the Properties to differ
materially from their estimated fair value. Such changes may also require
write-downs in future years. During the year ended March 31, 2001, there was a
$2,065,000 loss on the impairment of two assets. During the period March 31,
1998 through March 31, 2001, the Partnership has recorded $3,665,000 of losses
on impairment of assets.
The following is a summary of the results of operations of the Partnership for
the fiscal years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999.
The Partnership's primary source of income continues to be rental income with
the corresponding expenses being divided among operations, depreciation, and
mortgage interest.
Rental income is recognized as rent becomes due. Rental payments received in
advance are deferred until earned. The Partnership received rental subsidies
which amounted to approximately $2,904,000, $2,827,000 and $2,737,000 for the
years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The related rental
subsidy programs have expiration dates that either expire subsequent to the year
2001 or terminate upon total disbursement of the assistance obligation.
2001 vs. 2000
Rental income increased approximately 3% for the year ended March 31, 2001 as
compared to 2000 primarily due to rental increases.
Other increased approximately $266,000 for the year ended March 31, 2001 as
compared to 2000 primarily due to the underaccrual of interest income for the
years ended December 31, 1999 and prior at one Local Partnership.
No major expense categories, excluding the loss on impairment of assets, changed
more than 8% for the year ended March 31, 2001 as compared to 2000.
2000 vs. 1999
Rental income increased approximately 2% for the year ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to 1999 primarily due to rental rate increases.
No major expense categories, excluding the loss on impairment of assets, changed
more than 5% for the year ended March 31, 2000 as compared to 1999.
Other
The Partnership continues to meet its primary objective of generating Housing
Tax Credits. Housing Tax Credits are generated by a Property over a ten-year
period commencing as each Property is leased to qualified tenants. During the
years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Housing Tax Credits received by
the Partnership totaled $11,106,285, $11,200,999 and $11,200,999, respectively.
Based on the fact that certain Local Partnerships' tax credits will be expiring
in the year 2001, the Partnership expects the total Tax Credits to be received
to be less than those of prior years.
The Partnership's investments as limited partners in the Local Partnerships are
subject to the risks incident to the management and ownership of improved real
estate. The Partnership's investments also could be adversely affected by poor
economic conditions generally, which could increase vacancy levels, rental
payment defaults and operating expenses, any or all of which could threaten the
financial viability of one or more of the Local Partnerships.
There are also substantial risks associated with the operation of Apartment
Complexes receiving government assistance. These include governmental
regulations concerning tenant eligibility, which may make it more difficult to
rent apartments in the complexes; difficulties in obtaining government approval
for rent increases; limitations on the percentage of income which low and
moderate income tenants may pay as rent; the possibility that Congress may not
appropriate funds to enable HUD to make the rental assistance payments it has
contracted to make; and that when the rental assistance contracts expire there
may not be market demand for apartments at full market rents in a Local
Partnership's Apartment Complex.
The Local Partnerships are impacted by inflation in several ways. Inflation
generally allows for increases in rental rates to reflect the impact of higher
operating and replacement costs. Inflation also affects the Local Partnerships
adversely by increasing operating costs as a result of higher costs of such
items as fuel, utilities and labor. However, continued inflation may result in
appreciated values of the Local Partnerships' Apartment Complexes over a period
of time as rental revenues and replacement costs continue to increase.
The Partnership does not anticipate that it will be in a position to make cash
distributions at any time prior to the disposition of the Properties. If
distributions of operating cash flow are made, it is expected that they will be
limited. As of March 31, 2001, no such distributions have been made.
Item 7a. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
The Partnership is not exposed to market risk since its mortgage indebtedness
bears fixed rates of interest.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Freedom Tax Credit Plus L.P.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Freedom Tax
Credit Plus L.P. and consolidated partnerships as of March 31, 2001 and 2000,
and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in partners'
capital (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended March 31, 2001. In connection with our audits of the consolidated
financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedules.
These consolidated financial statements and the financial statement schedules
are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and the financial
statement schedules based on our audits. We did not audit the financial
statements of 26 and 18 of the consolidated partnerships, which statements
reflect combined assets constituting 44% and 48% as of March 31, 2001 and 2000,
and combined revenues constituting 47%, 37% and 42% for 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, of the related consolidated totals. Those statements were audited
by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion,
insofar as it relates to the amounts included for those partnerships, is based
solely on the reports of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of
the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the
consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Freedom Tax Credit Plus L.P. and
consolidated partnerships as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended March 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all
material respects, the information set forth therein.

Guide for Audits of HUD Programs issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development, we have also issued reports dated January 25, 2000 on our
consideration of Pecan Creek Limited Partnership's internal control, on its
compliance with specific requirements applicable to major HUD programs, specific
requirements applicable to nonmajor HUD program transactions, and specific
requirements applicable to Fair Housing and Non-Discrimination.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The supplemental information shown on pages 16-18
and the information transmitted to the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) is prepared for the purpose of additional analysis and is not
a required part of the financial statements of Pecan Creek Limited Partnership.
Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly presented in
all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Partners
363 Grand Vendome Associates, Limited Partnership
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of 363 Grand Vendome Associates,
Limited Partnership, as of December 31, 2000, and the related statements of
Loss, Partners' Capital and Cash Flows for the year then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.
Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We are unable to obtain adequate support for the carrying value for the building
construction and rehabilitation costs included in the fixed assets at December
31, 2000, which also affected material amounts included in the Statements of
Loss and Partners' Capital for the year then ended as described in Note 10.
In our opinion, except for the effects on the financial statements of such
adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had we been
able to examine evidence regarding the carrying value of building and
rehabilitation costs, the financial statements referred to in the first
paragraph above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of 363 Grand Vendome Associates, Limited Partnership, as of December 31, 2000,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that the audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

FREEDOM TAX CREDIT PLUS L.P.
AND CONSOLIDATED PARTNERSHIPS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999
NOTE 1 - General
Freedom Tax Credit Plus L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the
"Partnership"), was organized on August 28, 1989 and commenced its public
offering on February 9, 1990 (the "Offering"). The general partners of the
Partnership are Related Freedom Associates L.P. (the "Related General Partner"),
a Delaware limited partnership, and its affiliate, Freedom GP Inc. (the "Freedom
General Partner"), a Delaware corporation, together (the "General Partners").
The Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2030, unless terminated sooner
under the provision's of the partnership agreement.
The Partnership's business is to invest in other partnerships ("Local
Partnerships," "subsidiaries" or "subsidiary partnerships") owning leveraged
apartment complexes that are eligible for the low-income housing tax credit
("Housing Tax Credit") enacted in the Tax Reform Act of 1986. Some of the
complexes may also be eligible for the historic rehabilitation tax credit
("Historic Tax Credits"). During Fiscal Years 2001, 2000 and 1999, the
Partnership generated $11,106,285, $11,200,999 and $11,200,999, respectively, in
Housing Tax Credits. There were no Historic Tax Credits generated in the 2000,
1999 and 1998 tax years.
The Partnership was authorized to issue a total of 200,000 Beneficial Assignment
Certificates ("BACs"), which had been registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission for sale to the public. As of August 8, 1991 (the date on
which the Partnership held the final closing of the sale of BACs and on which
the offering was terminated), the Partnership had received $72,896,000 of gross
proceeds of the Offering from 4,780 investors.
The terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement provide, among other things, that
net profits or losses and distributions of cash flow are, in general, allocated
99% to the limited partners and BACs holders and 1% to the General Partners.
The Partnership is dependent upon the support of the General Partners and
certain of its affiliates in order to meet its obligations at the Partnership
level. The General Partners and these affiliates have agreed to continue such
support for the next year.
NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a) Basis of Accounting and Presentation
The Partnership's fiscal year ends on March 31. All subsidiaries have calendar
year ends. Accounts of the subsidiaries have been adjusted for intercompany
transactions from January 1 through March 31. The Partnership's fiscal year ends
March 31, in order to allow adequate time for the subsidiaries financial
statements to be prepared and consolidated. The books and records of the
Partnership are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
b) Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership
and 42 subsidiary partnerships, in which the Partnership is a limited partner,
with an ownership interest ranging from approximately 98% to 99%. All
intercompany accounts and transactions with the subsidiary partnerships have
been eliminated in consolidation. Through the rights of the Partnership and/or
an affiliate of the General Partners, which affiliate has a contractual
obligation to act on behalf of the Partnership, to remove the general partner of
the subsidiary partnerships and to approve certain major operating and financial
decisions, the Partnership has a controlling financial interest in the
subsidiary partnerships.
Increases (decreases) in the capitalization of consolidated subsidiaries
attributable to minority interest arises from cash contributions and cash
distributions to the minority interest partners.
The Partnership's investment in each subsidiary is equal to the respective
subsidiary's partners' equity less minority interest capital, if any.
c) Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash
equivalents include cash on hand, cash in banks, and investments in short-term
money market accounts (which were purchased with maturities of three months or
less).
d) Investment in Marketable Securities
The Partnership applies the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards
Board's Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115 "Accounting
for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." At March 31, 2001 and
2000 the Partnership has classified its securities as available-for-sale.
Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with net unrealized gain
(loss) reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income until
realized. A decline in the market value of any available-for-sale security below
cost that is deemed other than temporary is charged to earnings resulting in the
establishment of a new cost basis for the security.
e) Cash Held in Escrow
Cash held in escrow includes cash held in escrow, replacement reserves and
tenant security deposits.
f) Property and Equipment
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of," the Partnership is required to review long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable.
Impairment of properties to be held and used is determined to exist when
estimated amounts recoverable through future operations on an undiscounted basis
are below the properties' carrying value. If a property is determined to be
impaired, it is written down to its estimated fair value.
The determination of fair value is based, not only upon future cash flows, which
rely upon estimates and assumptions including expense growth, occupancy and
rental rates, but also upon market capitalization and discount rates as well as
other market indicators. The General Partners believe that the estimates and
assumptions used are appropriate in evaluating the carrying amount of the
Partnership's properties. However, changes in market conditions and
circumstances may occur in the near term which would cause these estimates and
assumptions to change, which, in turn, could cause the amounts ultimately
realized upon the sale or other disposition of the properties to differ
materially from their estimated fair value. Such changes may also require
write-downs in future years. During the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000,
there was a $2,065,000 and $500,0000, respectively, loss on impairment of
assets. During the period March 31, 1998 through March 31, 2001 the Partnership
has recorded $3,665,000 of losses on impairment of assets.
Property and equipment are depreciated over their estimated useful lives, which
range from 20 to 40 years for properties. Property is depreciated using an
accelerated or straight-line method. Equipment lives range from 5 to 7 years and
are depreciated on a straight-line basis.
g) Acquisition Fees and Costs
At investor closings, the General Partners were paid a property acquisition fee
(equal to 6% of the gross proceeds) for evaluating and screening real property
to be acquired. Acquisition fees and other acquisition expenses incurred by the
Partnership were charged to the property accounts based on the costs of
properties acquired.
h) Rental income
Rental income is recognized as rent becomes due. Rental payments received in
advance are deferred until earned. The Partnership received rental subsidies
which amounted to approximately $2,904,000, $2,827,000 and $2,737,000 for the
years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The related rental
subsidy programs have expiration dates that either expire subsequent to the year
2001 or terminate upon total disbursement of the assistance obligation.
i) Income Taxes
The Partnership is not required to provide for, or pay, any federal income
taxes. Net income or loss generated by the Partnership is passed through to the
partners and is required to be reported by them. The Partnership may be subject
to state and local taxes in jurisdictions in which it operates. For income tax
purposes, the Partnership has a fiscal year ending December 31 (see Note 8).
j) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and
assumptions relating to reporting of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses
disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates.
k) Deferred Costs
In April of 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Position 98-5 ("SOP 98-5") "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities". This
statement provides guidance on the financial reporting of start-up costs and
organization costs. This statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998. Such change in accounting
principle amounted to approximately $139,000 for the year ended March 31, 2000.
l) Net Loss Per BAC
Net loss per BAC is computed based on the net loss for the period attributed to
BAC Holders, divided by the number of BACs outstanding for the period.
NOTE 3 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with SFAS No. 107 "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments," the following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the
fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to
estimate that value:
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Cash Held in Escrow, Accounts Payable and Other
Liabilities, Due to Local General Partners and Affiliates, and Due to General
Partners and Affiliates The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, cash
held in escrow, accounts payable and other liabilities approximates fair value.
Due to Local General Partners and Affiliates and Due to General Partners and
Affiliates would be paid from the future operations or sale of the properties
which is not readily determinable.
Mortgage Notes Payable
The fair value of mortgage notes payable is estimated, where practicable, based
on the borrowing rate currently available for similar loans.
The estimated fair values of the Partnership's mortgage note payable are as
follows:
March 31, 2001
-------------------------------- --------
March 31, 2000
Carrying Carrying
Amount Fair Value Amount Fair Value
Mortgage Notes Payable for which it is:
Practicable to estimate fair value $43,112,563 $44,209,121 $43,704,319 $44,648,734
Not Practicable (a) $25,909,329 $26,209,769
(a) The mortgage notes payable are insured by HUD primarily in accordance with
Section 236 of the National Housing Act. New loans are no longer being insured
in accordance with Section 236 and presently existing loans are subject to
restrictions regarding prepayment. Management believes the estimation of fair
value to be impracticable.
NOTE 4 - Property and Equipment
The components of property and equipment are as follows:

$ 92,334,593 $ 98,567,972
============ ============
Depreciation expense for the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 amounted
to $4,939,405, $4,905,633 and $4,959,745, respectively.
During the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, accumulated depreciation of
$4,596 and $4,898 was written off respectively.
The Partnership periodically compares the carrying value of its properties to
its estimate of the sum of undiscounted future cash flows and the fair value of
remaining Tax Credits, to determine if the carrying value of the property is
impaired. If the property is considered impaired based on this analysis, an
impairment loss is recorded in order to write down the property to its fair
value. In December 2000 and 1999, management of Oxford Trace ("Oxford")
completed a recoverability review of the carrying value of the property based on
an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from its use
and eventual disposition. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, management concluded
that the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by
the apartment project is less than the carrying value and, as a result, the
Partnership recorded a loss on impairment of $290,000 and $500,000 at December
31, 2000 and 1999 respectively, which reduced the carrying value to its
estimated fair value. The estimated fair value was determined by using a
discounted cash flow analysis and an estimate of the fair value of the remaining
Tax Credits.
In 2000, management of Hunters Chase Apartments ("Hunters Chase") completed a
recoverability review of the carrying value of the property based on an estimate
of undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual
disposition. As of December 31, 2000, management concluded that the sum of the
undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by the property is less
than the carrying value and, as a result, the Partnership recorded a loss on
impairment of $1,775,000, which reduced the carrying value to its estimated fair
value. The estimated fair value was determined by using a discounted cash flow
analysis and an estimate of the fair value of the remaining Tax Credits.
NOTE 5 - Deferred Costs
The components of deferred costs and their periods of amortization are as
follows:
March 31,
----------------------------
2001
2000
Financing expenses $ 2,938,868 $ 2,938,868
Less: Accumulated amortization (1,480,402) (1,316,082)
---------- ----------
$ 1,458,466 $ 1,622,786
========== ==========
Financing expenses are being amortized over the life of the related mortgages,
ranging from 15 to 50 years, using a method approximating the interest method.
Amortization of deferred costs for the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999
amounted to $164,320, $249,200 and $169,171, respectively.
During the year ended March 31, 2000, accumulated amortization of $425,748 was
written off primarily related to the adoption of SOP 98-5.

(a) The General Partners are entitled to receive a partnership management fee,
after payment of all Partnership expenses, which together with the annual local
administrative fees will not exceed a maximum of 0.5% per annum of Invested
Assets (as defined in the Partnership Agreement), for administering the affairs
of the Partnership. Subject to the foregoing limitation, the partnership
management fee will be determined by the General Partners in their sole
discretion based upon their review of the Partnership's investment. Unpaid
partnership management fees for any year will be accrued without interest and
will be payable from working capital reserves or to the extent of available
funds after the Partnership has made distributions to the Limited Partners and
BACs holders of sale or refinancing proceeds equal to their original capital
contributions plus a 10% priority return thereon (to the extent not theretofore
paid out of Cash Flow). Partnership management fees owed to General Partners
amounting to approximately $4,180,000 and $3,504,000 were accrued and unpaid as
of March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Without the General Partners continued
accrual without payment, the Partnership will not be in a position to meet its
obligations. The General Partners have continued allowing the accrual without
payment of these amounts, but are under no obligation to continue to do so. The
Partnership is dependent upon the support of the General Partner and certain of
its affiliates in order to meet its obligations at the Partnership level. The
General Partner and these affiliates have agreed to continue such support for
the foreseeable future.
(b) The Partnership reimburses the General Partners and their affiliates for
actual Partnership operating expenses incurred by the General Partners and their
affiliates on the Partnership's behalf. The amount of reimbursement from the
Partnership is limited by the provisions of the Partnership Agreement. Another

partnerships' performance.

NOTE 9 - Commitments and Contingencies
(a) Other
The Partnership is subject to risks incident to potential losses arising from
the management and ownership of improved real estate. The Partnership can also
be affected by poor economic conditions generally, however no more than 24% of
the properties are located in any single state. There are also substantial risks
associated with owning properties receiving government assistance, for example
the possibility that Congress may not appropriate funds to enable HUD to make
rental assistance payments. HUD also restricts annual cash distributions to
partners based on operating results and a percentage of the owners equity
contribution. The Partnership cannot sell or substantially liquidate its
investments in subsidiary partnerships during the period that the subsidy
agreements are in existence, without HUD's approval. Furthermore there may not
be market demand for apartments at full market rents when the rental assistance
contract expires.
Except as described above, management is not aware of any trends or events,
commitments or uncertainties, which have not otherwise been disclosed, that will
or are likely to impact liquidity in a material way. Management believes the
only impact would be from laws that have not yet been adopted. The portfolio is
diversified by the location of the properties around the United States so that
if one area of the country is experiencing downturns in the economy, the
remaining properties in the portfolio may not be affected. However, the
geographic diversification of the portfolio may not protect against a general
downturn in the national economy.

(1) The address for each of the persons in the table is 625 Madison Avenue, New
York, New York 10022.
(2) As set forth in schedule 13D filed by the Partnership, Lehigh Tax Credit
L.L.C. (Lehigh) and Lehigh Tax Credit Partners, Inc. (the "Managing Member") on
October 24, 1997 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
and pursuant to a letter agreement dated August 26, 1997 among the Partnership,
Lehigh and Related Freedom Associates L.P. ("RFA") (the "Standstill Agreement"),
Lehigh agreed that, prior to August 26, 2007 (the "Standstill Expiration Date"),
it will not and it will cause certain affiliates (including Lehigh Tax Credit
Partners II, LLC ("Lehigh II")), not to (i) acquire, attempt to acquire or make
a proposal to acquire, directly or indirectly, more than 45% (including BACs
acquired through all other means) of the outstanding BACs, (ii) seek to propose
to enter into, directly or indirectly, any merger, consolidation, business
combination, sale or acquisition of assets, liquidation, dissolution or other
similar transaction involving the Partnership, (iii) make, or in any way
participate, directly or indirectly, in any "solicitation" of "proxies" or
"consents" (as such terms are used in the proxy rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission")) to vote any voting securities of the
Partnership, (iv) form, join or otherwise participate in a "group" (within the
meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act) with respect to any voting securities of
the Partnership, except that those affiliates bound by the Standstill Agreement
will not be deemed to have violated it and formed a "group" solely by acting in
accordance with the Standstill Agreement, (v) disclose in writing to any third
party any intention, plan or arrangement inconsistent with the terms of the
Standstill Agreement, or (vi) loan money to, advise, assist or encourage any
person in connection with any action inconsistent with the terms of the
Standstill Agreement. In addition, Lehigh agreed that until the Standstill
Expiration Date it will not sell any BACs acquired by it unless the buyer of
such BACs agrees to be bound by the Standstill Agreement; provided, however,
Lehigh may make transfers in the secondary market to any purchaser which
represents that following such sale it will not own three (3%) percent or more
of the BACs outstanding. By the terms of the Standstill Agreement, Lehigh also
agreed to vote its BACs in the same manner as a majority of all voting BACs
holders; provided, however, Lehigh is entitled to vote its BACs as it determines
with regard to any proposal (i) to remove RFA as a general partner of the
Partnership or (ii) concerning the reduction of any fees, profits, distributions
or allocations for the benefit of RFA or its affiliates. The discussion herein
of the Standstill Agreement is subject to and qualified in its entirety by
reference to such agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as an exhibit
and incorporated herein by reference.
(3) As of May 22, 2001, Lehigh held 4,192.83 BACs and Lehigh II held 4,182.83
BACs which constitutes approximately 11.5% of the outstanding BACs owned.
(4) Each such party serves as a director and executive officer of the Managing
Member and owns an equity interest therein, except J. Michael Fried who owns
only an economic interest.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
The Partnership has and will continue to have certain relationships with the
General Partners and their affiliates, as discussed in Item 11 which is
incorporated herein by reference thereto. However, there have been no direct
financial transactions between the Partnership and the directors and officers of
the General Partners.

At the time the local partnerships were acquired by Freedom Tax Credit Plus
L.P., the entire purchase price paid by Freedom Tax Credit Plus L.P. was pushed
down to the local partnerships as property and equipment with an offsetting
credit to capital. Since the projects were in the construction phase at the time
of acquisition, the capital accounts were insignificant at the time of purchase.
Therefore, there are no material differences between the original cost basis for
tax and GAAP.
