INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT To the Members New Brunswick Apartments, LLC We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of New Brunswick Apartments, LLC , (a limited liability company) (the Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, changes in members’ capital and cash flows for the years 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 audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As discussed in footnote 2 (Significant Accounting Policies), the Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the accounting policies and procedures specified by the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency (NJHMFA). The NJHMFA policies and procedures are substantially in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America except for the NJHMFA policies regarding the reporting of replacement reserve transactions. In our opinion, except for the effects of the Company’s policies regarding reporting of replacement reserve transactions as discussed in the preceding paragraph (and footnote 2), the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of New Brunswick Apartments, LLC as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued out report dated February 27, 2012, on our consideration of New Brunswick Apartment, LLC’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit.

1. BACKGROUND AND ORGANIZATION, Continued

Target occupancy: 206 units to be rented to tenants who must meet HUD Section 236(e)(2) requirements. 94% of the units are LIHC restricted.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Method - The Company reports on the accrual method of accounting for both financial and income tax reporting purposes. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the accounting policies and procedures specified by the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency (NJHMFA). The NJHMFA policies and procedures are substantially in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America except for the NJHMFA policies regarding the reporting of replacement reserve transactions.

Replacement Reserve - NJHMFA policies require that 1) deposits to the replacement reserve be classified as an expense item in the statement of operations as well as a direct increase to members’ capital in the statement of members’ capital and 2) transfers from the replacement reserve be netted with the deposits in the expense item in the statement of operations as well as a direct decrease to members’ capital in the statement of changes in members’ capital. If the replacement reserve transactions were reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (i.e. transactions are reported only as transfers between cash accounts), the following items would be increased (decreased): 2011 2010 Members’ capital (as of December 31): Accumulated earnings (losses) Reserve for repairs and replacements

$ 339,591 (339,591)

$ 667,375 (667,375)

Net effect on members’ capital $ 0 $ 0 Statement of operations (for the year ended December 31): Provision for repair and replacement reserve

$ 327,784 $ (17,218)

Net income (loss) $ (327,784) $ 17,218

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from those estimates. The most significant estimate included in the preparation of the financial statement is related to assets lives.

11



2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued

Rental Property and Equipment - Rental property and equipment are stated at cost and include $288,504 of interest that was capitalized through 2004.

Depreciation is calculated using straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:

Buildings and improvements 30-40 years Land improvements 15 years Appliances, flooring and equipment 7 years

Improvements are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of depreciable property, the appropriate property accounts are reduced by related cost and accumulated depreciation. The resulting gains and losses are reflected in the Statements of Operations.

The Company reviews its investment in real estate for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such property may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the real estate to the future net undiscounted cash flow expected to be generated by the rental property including the low income housing tax credits and any estimated proceeds from the eventual disposition of the real estate. If the real estate is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured at the amount by which the carrying amount of the real estate exceeds the fair value of such property. There were no impairment losses recognized in 2011 and 2010.

Other Assets – Other assets include deferred permanent mortgage financing costs in the amount of $1,306,649 which are amortized on the straight-line method over the term of the respective loans and tax credit allocation/compliance fees of $170,340 which are being amortized on the straight-line method over the 15 year term of the low-income tax credit compliance period.

Cash - The Company considers all cash on hand, cash in banks and short term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash for financial reporting purposes. For the purposes of reporting cash flows in the statement of cash flows, cash includes cash - operating and cash-entity.

Accounts Receivable - The Company records accounts receivable in the balance sheet at the amount invoiced to the tenant or governmental agency adjusted for an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is periodically estimated by management and includes all tenant accounts for which it appears there will be a problem with collection. Individual tenant receivables are deemed uncollectible and written off once reasonable collection efforts have been made or when the respective tenant is deceased. The Company does not have a material concentration of credit risk, with respect to accounts receivable, due to the generally short payment terms (i.e. rent is due at the beginning of the service month). In addition, the allowance for doubtful accounts is not significant.

NEW BRUNSWICK APARTMENTS, LLC (A Limited Liability Company) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued

Income Taxes - The Company does not pay federal or state income taxes on its income. Instead, the Company’s income, deductions and other income tax attributes are reported to each member, based on their respective ownership, and included in their respective income tax returns. The Company follows the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification pertaining to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. Federal and state tax authorities generally have the right to examine and audit the previous three years of tax returns filed. Any interest and penalties assessed to the Company are recorded in operating expenses ($0 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010). Management is not aware of any uncertain tax positions requiring measurement or disclosure in these financial statements.

Rental Income - Rental income is recognized as rentals become due. Rental payments received in advance are deferred until earned. All leases between the Company and the tenants of the property are typically for one year or less and classified as operating leases. Rent increases must be approved by HUD and/or NJHMFA.

Advertising - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Account Reclassification - Certain account balances at December 31, 2010 were reclassified to conform to account classifications used by the Partnership at December 31, 2011. These changes had no effect on reported results of operations or financial position.

2011 2010 A $14,940,000 first mortgage loan from the Middlesex County Improvement Authority (the MCIA) in the original amount of $14,940,000 funded with the proceeds of a multi-family housing mortgage revenue bonds Series 2002 (the bonds). The mortgage bears interest at 6.2% per annum for a term of 30 years (matures 2035). The loan requires monthly payments of interest and principal sufficient to meet the scheduled principal redemptions and is secured by a first mortgage on substantially all of the rights and assets of the Company. The bond reserves held by the mortgage trustee are held principally for debt servicing. The MCIA mortgage requires monthly deposits into the tax and insurance escrow and monthly deposits into a replacement reserve. The bonds are secured by a Deed of Trust and Security agreement, with a standby credit enhancement instrument provided by Fannie Mae. In addition, the IRP payments are forwarded directly to the bond trustee to be used for applicable debt servicing.

For administrative and economic efficiency purposes, the management company maintains a centralized payroll system and employee benefit programs for all employees of the entities that it manages. The actual payroll and benefit charges of the Company’s employees are charged directly to the Company.

Amounts due to related parties consist of the following at December 31:

2011 2010 Investor service fee payable $ 9,226 $ 8,960 Company management fee payable $ 9,226 $ 8,960 Incentive management fee payable $ 255,756 $ 167,931

In 2011 and 2010, a bonus fee of $4,500 and $5,000, respectively, payable to CRM was charged to operations, which was approved by NJHMFA.

8. RESTRICTED DEPOSITS AND FUNDED RESERVES

In connection with the project’s mortgage loan agreements, the Company was required to establish the following reserve accounts that are maintained by Commerce Bank (the trustee) or NJHMFA:

Tax and Insurance Escrow Funds - The Company makes monthly deposits into the tax and insurance escrow fund to be used for real estate taxes and mortgage insurance.

Reserve for Replacements - This fund is used to finance the cost of repairs or replacements of major capital improvements. The Company must obtain NJHMFA’s approval prior to disbursing the funds. The company is required to deposit $56,650 annually to the Reserve for Replacement fund. Bond Reserve – The bond fund is used for the principal and interest payment on the Middlesex County Improvement Authority Bonds. In connection with the project’s operating agreement, the Company was required to establish the following reserves that are maintained by the Company: Lender Prepayment & Reserve – An initial deposit of $375,000 was required. The reserve may be used at the discretion of the special member, upon mortgage loan conversion to prepay the mortgage loan as deemed necessary to enable the project to maintain a debt service coverage of 120% as defined in the agreement. Any withdrawals from the reserve requires the approval of the special member and are subject to all lender and agency regulations. Environmental Insurance Reserve – An initial deposit of $100,000 was required. The environmental insurance reserve is to be used to cover any deductible payments under the Company’s environmental liability insurance policy. Any withdrawals from the reserve requires the approval of the managing member and the special member. Excess Income Reserve – Upon acquisition, the Company acquired the excess income reserve of the seller entity. This money will be used for the project rehabilitation and replacement of project assets. Construction Escrow – The construction escrow was established to hold the final retainage payment on the construction contract. Upon selection of the construction contract, the money will be released.

9. FEDERAL LOW INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDIT

Each building of the project has qualified and been allocated low-income housing tax credits pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 42, which regulates the use of the project as to occupant eligibility and unit gross rent, among other requirements. Each building of the project must meet the provisions of these regulations during each of fifteen consecutive years in order to continue to qualify to receive the tax credits. Failure to comply with occupant eligibility and/or unit gross rent, or to correct noncompliance within a specified time period could result in recapture of previously taken low-income housing tax credits plus interest. Such potential noncompliance may require an adjustment to the contributed capital by the investment member.

Following is the federal low income housing tax credit information for the project:

Status: Forms 8609 received

Maximum annual credit: $548,540

Set-aside: 40/60

Tax credit delivery period: 2003 through 2014

10. OTHER COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND CONCENTRATIONS

Under the terms of an interest reduction payment (IRP) contract with HUD Section 236, the Company will receive interest reduction payments in monthly installment up to a maximum of $278,977 per year through October 1, 2023, in exchange for agreeing to limit the rents charged on 206 units to the greater of 30% of the tenants’ income, or a basic rental sufficient to meet operating cash requirements. During 2011 and 2010, the Company received $278,977 and $278,977, respectively. The Company receives its rental income from individual tenants and from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under a Section 8 Project-Based Housing Assistance Payments Contract and Rent Supplement Contract. Rental assistance received from HUD for 2011 and 2010 aggregated $1,932,242 and $1,716,502, respectively. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company also maintains escrows and reserve balances on deposit with the bonds trustee and NJHMFA, which are not covered by Federal Deposit Insurance. These financial instruments potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents or on escrow and reserve funds. The operating agreement stipulates that the managing member shall guarantee and fund any operating deficits for a period ending on the 3rd anniversary of construction completion. The maximum guarantee is $1,000,000 which is reduced by $333,333 per year. Advances to the Company for any operating deficits shall be classified as an operating deficit loan, the repayment of which is provided for pursuant to the terms of the operating agreement. As of December 31, 2011, and 2010 there were no operating deficit loans. The third anniversary of construction completion was in 2007 and therefore the managing member no longer guarantees any operating deficits.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS

(Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance With Government Auditing Standards)

To the Members New Brunswick Apartments, LLC We have audited the financial statements of New Brunswick Apartments, LLC (a limited liability company) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011, and have issued our report thereon dated February 27, 2012. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING In planning and performing our audit, we considered New Brunswick Apartments, LLC ’s internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Entity’s internal control over financial reporting. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Entity’s financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether New Brunswick Apartments, LLC ’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

35





Independent Auditor’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters New Brunswick Apartments, LLC Page 2 In addition, during the performance of our audit of the financial statements of New Brunswick Apartments, LLC, we reviewed the following on a test basis:

1. Reports required by HUD for timely filing and accuracy;

2. The validity of the Section 8 contract and amendments thereto;

3. The accuracy of the maximum chargeable rents;

4. The qualifications of the tenants as to admission and their required monthly contributions;

5. The certification and recertification of tenants; and

6. The files located at the project and the managing agent’s office for adequacy. As a result of our review of the items noted above, nothing came to our attention that would invalidate the future and uninterrupted receipts of the federal subsidies, under existing rules and regulations. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the members, management, and the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
