and its affiliates perform services on behalf of the Partnership in
connection with administering the affairs of the Partnership. The General
Partner and affiliates are reimbursed for their general and
administrative costs actually incurred and associated with services
performed on behalf of the Partnership. For the three months ended June
30, 2002 and 2001, the Partnership incurred approximately $3,000 and
$2,000, respectively of such costs. For the six months there ended, such
costs were $6,000 and $5,000, respectively.

Partnership Fund 1990 litigation.

|    |  | Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the general partners and their
insurer have contributed $2,500,000 (subsequent to June 30,
2002) to the Partnerships for distribution
to all current limited partners according to an allocation formula that
guarantees that the settlement amount received by the limited partners,
plus all remaining funds available for distribution by the Partnerships,
will be at least 6% more than the amount the limited partners received
pursuant to the defendants 2000 settlement offer. Plaintiffs counsel
applied to the court and received an award of attorneys fees in the
amount of $873,754, plus reimbursement of costs and expenses of $126,246,
plus incentive awards to the named plaintiffs in the aggregate amount of
$30,000, all of which sums have been paid out of the settlement funds. In
exchange, both cases have been dismissed with prejudice and class members
have released the Partnerships, their general partners and other
defendants and their affiliates and insurers from any and all claims.
|   
|    |  | Assuming that there is no appeal from the court orders of dismissal, the
settlement agreement contemplates a final distribution of cash to limited
partners within one week following expiration of the time to file an
appeal on August 27, 2002. We anticipate that the Partnerships will
shortly thereafter wind up their operations, deregister their partnership
interests under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and complete their
dissolution.

|    |  | So far as is known to the General Partner, the Partnership is not subject
to any material pending legal proceedings, except for the following:

|    |  | On March 25, 1997, a Limited Partner named Bigelow/Diversified Secondary
Partnership Fund 1990 L.P. filed a purported class action lawsuit in the
Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County against Damson/Birtcher
Partners, Birtcher Investors, Birtcher/Liquidity Properties, Birtcher
Investments, L.F. Special Fund II, L.P., L.F. Special Fund I, L.P.,
Arthur Birtcher, Ronald Birtcher, Robert Anderson, Richard G. Wollack and
Brent R. Donaldson alleging breach of fiduciary duty and breach of
contract and seeking to enjoin the Partnership consent solicitation dated
February 18, 1997 relating to the proposal to liquidate the Partnerships
properties and dissolve the Partnership. On April 18, 1997, the court
denied the plaintiffs motion for a preliminary injunction. On June 10,
1997, the court dismissed the plaintiffs complaint on the basis of lack
of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens.

|    |  | In September 1998, Bigelow/Diversified Secondary Partnership 1990 filed
suit in the Delaware Chancery Court against Damson/Birtcher Partners,

Chancery of Philadelphia County.

|    |  | In March 2000, defendants informed the Court and plaintiff that they
would bring a Motion for Summary Judgment against the named plaintiff
based upon the allegations set forth in plaintiffs complaint. On April
4, 2000, plaintiff filed its First Amended Class Action and Derivative
Complaint against Damson/Birtcher Partners, Birtcher Investors,
Birtcher/Liquidity Properties, Birtcher Partners, Birtcher Properties,
Birtcher Ltd., Birtcher Investments, BREICORP, L.F. Special Fund II,
L.P., L.F. Special Fund I, L.P., Liquidity Fund Asset Management, Inc.,
Arthur Birtcher, Ronald Birtcher, Robert Anderson, Richard G. Wollack and
Brent R. Donaldson, the Partnership, Damson/Birtcher Realty Income
Fund-II and Real Estate Income Partners III, alleging breach of fiduciary
duty, breach of contract, and a derivative claim for breach of fiduciary
duty. Defendants have answered the First Amended Complaint.

|    |  | In October 2000, the Partnership and the General Partner entered into a
settlement agreement with Grape Investors, LLC, one of the Partnerships
limited partners, pursuant to which Grape Investors agreed to accept a
distribution of its ratable share of the funds held by the Partnership to
settle this lawsuit and all other claims (including the Madison
Partnership and ISA Partnership litigation referred to below). As the
holder of an approximate 7.95% limited partner interest, Grape Investors
was the single largest limited partner interest holder.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
|   
|    |  | On October 27, 2000, defendants sought permission of the court to
communicate an offer to settle to individual limited partners of the
Partnership. Plaintiffs counsel opposed that motion. On December 4,
2000, the court ruled that defendants could communicate an offer to
settle to individual limited partners. The distribution to Grape was
approximately $576,000.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
|   
|    |  | Thereafter, on December 12, 2000, the Partnership and the General Partner
mailed to the limited partners an offer to settle this lawsuit and all
other claims (including the Madison Partnership and ISA Partnership
Litigation referenced below) for payment of each settling limited
partners pro rata share of the proceeds available for distribution from
liquidation of the Partnerships properties (approximately $75 per $1,000
of original investment interest) plus a nominal payment of $1.00 from the

|    |  | complaint is that the General Partners of these limited partnerships have
not undertaken all reasonable efforts to expedite liquidation of the
Partnerships properties and to maximize the returns to the Partnerships
limited partners. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages,
attorneys fees and litigation expenses, and an order for dissolution of
the partnerships and appointment of an independent liquidating trustee.

|    |  | On August 14, 2000, plaintiffs petitioned the court for an order
certifying the action as a class action. Plaintiffs also asked the court
to issue a writ mandating that the Partnership immediately distribute all
liquidation proceeds to the limited partners. On December 19, 2000, the
court denied both motions. The case is currently proceeding only as a
derivative action. At a status conference on May 25, 2001, the plaintiffs
asked for the court to set a trial date approximately one year later. The
court set the trial for May 6, 2002.

|    |  | On August 10, 2001, defendants filed a motion for summary adjudication of
plaintiffs claim for breach of fiduciary duty. The motion was heard on
September 11, 2001. On December 2, 2001, the court granted defendants
motion and dismissed plaintiffs claim for breach of fiduciary duty.

|    |  | On March 4, 2002, defendants filed a motion for summary adjudication of
their sole remaining claim for breach of contract. On April 2, 2002, the
court granted this motion and dismissed the action against all defendants
except the general partner, its partners and Arthur B. Birtcher.

|    |  | On March 15, 2002, plaintiffs filed a motion for leave to file a second
amended complaint, based upon allegations of breach of contract,
intentional interference with contractual relations and intentional
interference with prospective economic advantage. The court denied this
motion on April 9, 2002.

|    |  | In April 2002, it was determined that the Partnerships transfer agent
mistakenly overpaid distributions to five limited partners as part of the
December 31, 2000 litigation settlement. The overpayments totaled
approximately $224,000. The transfer agent has agreed to seek recovery of
these funds at its own expense, and to make full restitution to the
Partnership. As of June 30, 2002, the transfer agent had recovered and
returned to the Partnership approximately $215,000 from two limited
partners. These recovered payments have been reflected on the Statements
of Changes of Net Assets in Liquidation as a reduction in distributions
to partners as of June 30, 2002. On July 2, 2002, an additional $5,000
was recovered and returned to the Partnership.

| |  | The Partnership completed the sale of all of its remaining properties in
four separate transactions during 1999 and 2000. The Partnerships
operating results have been reflected on the Statements of Changes of Net
Assets in Liquidation.

| |  | For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, interest income was
approximately $12,000 and $27,000, respectively, as compared to $47,000
and $104,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30,
2001. The decreases in interest income were reflective of the decrease in
cash and cash equivalent balances that resulted from the cash distributed
to the limited partners in conjunction with the offer to settle and lower
rates-of-return on Certificates of Deposit.                                                                                                                                              
|
| |  | Accrued expenses for liquidation as of June 30, 2002, include estimates of
costs to be incurred in carrying out the dissolution and liquidation of
the Partnership through September 10, 2002. These costs include estimates
of legal fees, accounting fees, tax preparation and filing fees and other
professional services. The General Partner re-evaluated the estimated
costs to wind up and dissolve the Partnership given the pending settlement
of the on-going litigation. The provision for liquidation expenses was
accordingly reduced by $44,000 and $452,000 during the three and six
months ended June 30, 2002, respectively.
|
| |  | The actual costs could vary from the related provisions due to the
uncertainty involved in making such projections and the fact that any
delays may increase future costs.

|
| |  | Liquidation expenses incurred for the three and six months ended June 30,
2002 include charges of $3,000 and $6,000, respectively, from the General
Partner and its affiliates for services rendered in connection with
administering the affairs of the Partnership. Also included in
liquidation expenses incurred for the three and six months ended June 30,
2002 are direct charges of $126,000, and $261,000, related to audit fees,
tax preparation fees, legal and professional fees, costs incurred in
providing information to the Limited Partners and other miscellaneous
costs.






|ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  | As of June 30, 2002, the Partnership had cash equivalents of $1,959,000
invested in interest-bearing certificates of deposit. These investments
are subject to interest rate risk due to changes in interest rates upon
maturity. Declines in interest rates over time would reduce Partnership
interest income.

Realty Income Fund-II, and Real Estate Income Partners III (the
Partnerships), their general partners and all other remaining defendants
entered into a settlement agreement with the named plaintiffs in the
Bigelow/Diversified Secondary Partnership Fund 1990 litigation and the
Madison Partnership and ISA Partnership litigation. (Each of these matters
is described more fully below.)

class member objected to the settlement.

| |  | On June 28, 2002, the court approved the settlement and dismissed the
Madison Partnership and ISA Partnership litigation. On July 3, 2002, the
Delaware Chancery Court dismissed the Bigelow/Diversified Secondary
Partnership Fund 1990 litigation.

| |  | Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the general partners and their
insurer have contributed $2,500,000 (subsequent to June 30,
2002) to the Partnerships for distribution
to all current limited partners according to an allocation formula that
guarantees that the settlement amount received by the limited partners,
plus all remaining funds available for distribution by the Partnerships,
will be at least 6% more than the amount the limited partners received
pursuant to the defendants 2000 settlement offer. Plaintiffs counsel
applied to the court and received an award of attorneys fees in the
amount of $873,754, plus reimbursement of costs and expenses of $126,246,
plus incentive awards to the named plaintiffs in the aggregate amount of
$30,000, all of which sums have been paid out of the settlement funds. In
exchange, both cases have been dismissed with prejudice and class members
have released the Partnerships, their general partners and other
defendants and their affiliates and insurers from any and all claims.
|
| |  | Assuming that there is no appeal from the court orders of dismissal, the
settlement agreement contemplates a final distribution of cash to limited
partners within one week following expiration of the time to file an
appeal on August 27, 2002. We anticipate that the Partnerships will
shortly thereafter wind up their operations, deregister their partnership
interests under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and complete their
dissolution.

alleging breach of fiduciary duty and breach of contract and seeking to
enjoin the Partnership consent solicitation dated February 18, 1997
relating to the proposal to liquidate the Partnerships properties and
dissolve the Partnership. On April 18, 1997, the court denied the
plaintiffs motion for a preliminary injunction. On June 10, 1997, the
court dismissed the plaintiffs complaint on the basis of lack of personal
jurisdiction and forum non conveniens.

| |  | In October 2000, the Partnership and the General Partner entered into a
settlement agreement with Grape Investors, LLC, one of the Partnerships
limited partners, pursuant to which Grape Investors agreed to accept a
distribution of its ratable share of the funds held by the Partnership to
settle this lawsuit and all other claims (including the Madison
Partnership and ISA Partnership litigation referred to below). As the
holder of an approximate 7.95% limited partner interest, Grape Investors
was the single largest limited partner interest holder.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
|
| |  | On October 27, 2000, defendants sought permission of the court to
communicate an offer to settle to individual limited partners of the
Partnership. Plaintiffs counsel opposed that motion. On December 4, 2000,
the court ruled that defendants could communicate an offer to settle to
individual limited partners. The distribution to Grape was approximately
$576,000.

|
| |  | Thereafter, on December 12, 2000, the Partnership and the General Partner
mailed to the limited partners an offer to settle this lawsuit and all
other claims (including the Madison Partnership and ISA Partnership
Litigation referenced below) for payment of each settling limited
partners pro rata share of the proceeds available for distribution from
liquidation of the Partnerships properties (approximately $75 per $1,000
of original investment interest) plus a nominal payment of $1.00 from the
General Partner for an assignment of all of a settling limited partners
interest in the Partnership to the General Partner. Limited partners
holding approximately 43.94% of the interests (including the Grape
Investors Settlement) in the Partnership settled on these terms.             
|
| |  | The aggregate distribution in connection with the December 12, 2000 offer,
which was reflected as an accrual at December 31, 2000, was approximately
$2,830,000. It was paid in full in January 2001.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
|
| |  | On March 6, 2001, all of the defendants other than the Partnership and the
general partner filed a motion to be dismissed from the case. Plaintiff
filed responsive papers. The court held oral argument in July 2001, and in
a Memorandum Opinion dated December 4, 2001, dismissed all of the
defendants (other than the Partnership and the General Partner) from the
breach of contract claims.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
|
| |  | On December 4, 2001, the Partnership and the General Partner mailed to the
limited partners a second offer to settle this lawsuit and all other
claims (including the Madison Partnership and ISA Partnership Litigation
referenced below) for payment of each settling limited partners pro rata
share of the proceeds available for distribution from liquidation of the
Partnerships properties (approximately $65 per $1,000 of original
investment interest) plus a nominal payment of $1.00 from the General
Partner for an assignment of all of a settling limited partners interest
in the Partnership to the General Partner. As of December 31, 2001,
limited partners holding 4.66% of the interests in the Partnership settled
on these terms and an additional 7.26% settled on February 28, 2002.
|
| |  | The aggregate distribution in connection with the December 4, 2001 offer,
was approximately $748,000, of which $292,000 was paid on December 31,
2001 and $456,000 was paid on February 28, 2002. As of February 28, 2002,
limited partners holding a total aggregate of approximately 55.86% of the
interests in the Partnership had settled.

|
| |  | Defendants, and Damson/Birtcher Realty Income Fund-I, Damson/Birtcher
Realty Income Fund-II, and Real Estate Income Partners III, Nominal
Defendants. The complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and
breach of contract. The gravamen of the complaint is that the General
Partners of these limited partnerships have not undertaken all reasonable
efforts to expedite liquidation of the Partnerships properties and to
maximize the returns to the Partnerships limited partners. The complaint
seeks unspecified monetary damages, attorneys fees and litigation
expenses, and an order for dissolution of the partnerships and appointment
of an independent liquidating trustee.
|
| |  | On August 14, 2000, plaintiffs petitioned the court for an order
certifying the action as a class action. Plaintiffs also asked the court
to issue a writ mandating that the Partnership immediately distribute all
liquidation proceeds to the limited partners. On December 19, 2000, the
court denied both motions. The case is currently proceeding only as a
derivative action. At a status conference on May 25, 2001, the plaintiffs
asked for the court to set a trial date approximately one year later. The
court set the trial for May 6, 2002.                                                                                                                                               
|
| |  | On August 10, 2001, defendants filed a motion for summary adjudication of
plaintiffs claim for breach of fiduciary duty. The motion was heard on
September 11, 2001. On December 2, 2001, the court granted defendants
motion and dismissed plaintiffs claim for breach of fiduciary duty.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
|
| |  | On March 4, 2002, defendants filed a motion for summary adjudication of
their sole remaining claim for breach of contract. On April 2, 2002, the
court granted this motion and dismissed the action against all defendants
except the general partner, its partners and Arthur B. Birtcher.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
|
| |  | On March 15, 2002, plaintiffs filed a motion for leave to file a second
amended complaint, based upon allegations of breach of contract,
intentional interference with contractual relations and intentional
interference with prospective economic advantage. The court denied this
motion on April 9, 2002.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
|
| |  | As noted above, limited partners holding approximately 55.86% of the
interests in the Partnership had settled this (and all other) cases
against the Partnership and the General Partner as of February 28, 2002.
