America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. (the “Partnership”) was formed on April 2, 1998, under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the purpose of acquiring, holding, selling and otherwise dealing with a portfolio of mortgage revenue bonds (“MRBs”) which have been issued to provide construction and/or permanent financing for affordable multifamily and student housing residential properties (collectively “Residential Properties”) and commercial properties. In addition, the Partnership may acquire interests in multifamily, student, and senior citizen residential properties (“MF Properties”) in order to position itself for future investments in MRBs issued to finance these properties or to operate the MF Property until its “highest and best use” can be determined by management.

The general partner of the Partnership is America First Capital Associates Limited Partnership Two (“AFCA 2” or “General Partner”).  The general partner of AFCA 2 is Burlington Capital LLC (“Burlington”). The Partnership has issued Beneficial Unit Certificates (“BUCs”) representing assigned limited partner interests to investors (“Unitholders”). The Partnership has also issued non-cumulative, non-voting and non-convertible Series A Preferred Units which represent limited partnership interests in the Partnership.
