(a)

The General Partner is 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 Partner in its sole discretion based upon its review of the Partnership’s investments.  Unpaid partnership management fees for any year are deferred without interest and will be payable out of sales or refinancing proceeds only to the extent of available funds after payments on all Partnership liabilities have been made other than those owed to the General Partner and its affiliates.  Partnership management fees owed to the General Partner amounting to approximately $7,000 and $2,296,000 were accrued and unpaid as of December 31,  2015 and March 31,  2015, respectively.  Current year partnership management fees may be paid out of operating reserves or refinancing and sales proceeds.  However, the General Partner cannot demand payment of the deferred fees beyond the Partnership’s ability to pay them.

 

(b)

The Partnership reimburses the General Partner and its affiliates for actual Partnership operating expenses incurred by the General Partner and its affiliates on the Partnership’s behalf. The amount of reimbursement from the Partnership is limited by the provisions of the Partnership Agreement. Another affiliate of the General Partner performs asset monitoring for the Partnership. These services include site visits and evaluations of the subsidiary partnerships’ performance.  Expense reimbursements and asset monitoring fees owed to the General Partner and its affiliates amounting to approximately $57,000 and $51,000 were accrued and unpaid as of December 31,  2015 and March 31,  2015, respectively. The General Partner does not intend to demand payment of the deferred payables beyond the Partnership’s ability to pay them.  The Partnership anticipates that these will be paid, if at all, from working capital reserves or future sales proceeds.

 

(c)

Independence SLP IV L.P., a special limited partner of the subsidiary partnerships, is entitled to receive a local administrative fee of up to $5,000 per year from each subsidiary partnership.  Local administrative fees owed to Independence SLP IV L.P. amounting to $207,000 and $197,000 were accrued and unpaid as of December 31,  2015 and March 31,  2015, respectively. These fees have been deferred in certain cases and the Partnership anticipates that they will be paid, if at all, from working capital reserves or future sales proceeds.

 

As of December 31,  2015 and March 31,  2015, the Partnership owed $1,000 and $1,000, respectively, to the General Partner for expenses it paid on its behalf.
