NOTE A - ORGANIZATION



BCTC IV Assignor Corp. (the "Corporation") was organized on October 12, 1993 under the laws of the State of Delaware to act as the assignor limited partner of, and to acquire and hold a limited partnership interest in, Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund IV L.P. (the "Limited Partnership"). The Corporation will assign units of beneficial interest in its limited partnership interest to persons who purchase Beneficial Assignee Certificates (BACs), on the basis of one unit of beneficial interest for each BAC.  The Corporation will not have any interest in profits, losses or distributions on its own behalf.



NOTE B - INVESTMENT IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIP



On October 12, 1993, the Corporation was admitted as the assignor limited partner in the Limited Partnership. The Limited Partnership was formed to invest in real estate by acquiring, holding, and disposing of limited partnership interests in operating partnerships which will acquire, develop, rehabilitate, operate and own newly-constructed, existing or rehabilitated low-income apartment complexes.

Business

The Corporation was formed for the sole purpose of serving as an assignor for the Limited Partnership and will not engage in any other business. Units of beneficial interest in the Limited Partnership interest of the Corporation will be assigned by the Corporation by means of BACs to investors and investors will be entitled to all the rights and economic benefits of a limited partner of the Limited Partnership, including rights to a percentage of the income, gains, losses, deductions, credits and distributions of the Limited Partnership. The Corporation is wholly-owned by John P. Manning.
A Registration Statement on Form S-11 and the related prospectus, as supplemented (the "Prospectus") were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and became effective December 16, 1993 in connection with a public offering ("Offering") in one or more series of a minimum of 250,000 BACs and a maximum of 30,000,000 BACs at $10 per BAC.

On April 2, 1998 an amendment to Form S-11, which registered an additional 25,000,000 BACs for sale to the public in one or more series, became effective. On August 31, 1999 an amendment to Form S-11, which registered an additional 8,000,000 BACs for sale to the public became effective.  On July 26, 2000 an amendment to Form S-11, which registered an additional 7,500,000 BACs for sale to the public became effective. On July 23, 2001 an amendment to Form S-11, which registered an additional 7,000,000 BACs for sale to the public became effective.

As of September 30, 2008, subscriptions had been received and accepted by the general partner of the Limited Partnership in Series 20, Series 21, Series 22, Series 23, Series 24, Series 25, Series 26, Series 27, Series 28, Series 29, Series 30, Series 31, Series 32, Series 33, Series 34, Series 35, Series 36, Series 37, Series 38, Series 39, Series 40, Series 41, Series 42, Series 43, Series 44, Series 45 and Series 46 for 83,651,080 BACs representing capital contributions of $836,177,880.







The Offering, including information regarding the issuance of BACs in series, is described on pages 144 to 149 of the Prospectus, as supplemented, under the caption "The Offering", which is incorporated herein by reference.

Description of Business

The Corporation's sole purpose is to act as a conduit through which all of the economic and tax benefits of an investment in the Limited Partnership are passed along to the investor holders.  The Corporation does not charge any fees for its services and has no income.
The Limited Partnership's principal business is to invest as a limited partner in other limited partnerships (the "Operating Partnerships"), each of which will own or lease and will operate an apartment complex exclusively or partially for low- and moderate-income tenants.  Each Operating Partnership in which the Limited Partnership invests will own apartment complexes which are completed, newly-constructed, under construction or rehabilitation, or to-be constructed or rehabilitated, and which are expected to receive government assistance.  Each apartment complex is expected to qualify for the low-income housing tax credit under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")(the "Federal Housing Tax Credit"), and provide tax benefits over a period of ten to twelve years in the form of tax credits which investors may use to offset income, subject to strict limitations, from other sources.  Some apartment complexes may also qualify for the historic rehabilitation tax credit under Section 47 of the Code (the "Rehabilitation Tax Credit").  The Federal Housing Tax Credit and the government assistance programs are described on pages 64 to 88 of the Prospectus, as supplemented, under the captions "Tax Credit Programs" and "Government Assistance Programs," which are incorporated herein by reference.  Section 236 (f) (ii) of the National Housing Act, as amended, and Section 101 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965, as amended, each provide for the making by HUD of rent supplement payments to low income tenants in properties which receive other forms of federal assistance such as tax credits.  The payments for each tenant, which are made directly to the owner of their property, generally are in amounts as to enable the tenant to pay rent equal to 30% of the adjusted family income.  Some of the apartment complexes in which the Limited Partnership has invested are receiving rent supplements from HUD.  HUD has been in the process of converting rent supplement assistance to assistance paid not to the owner of the apartment complex, but directly to the individuals.  At this time, the Limited Partnership is unable to predict whether Congress will continue rent supplement programs payable directly to owners of the apartment complex.
