                                       - 13 -                                         
             partners in the other partnerships.  The preamble of the                 
             Settlement Agreement also refers to a list of proceedings                
             “pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the                   
             District of Arizona.”  It appears that the list of bank-                 
             ruptcy proceedings includes proceedings filed on behalf                  
             of seven of the nine partnerships involved in the                        
             consolidated cases herein.                                               
                  Under the Settlement Agreement, an investor is given                
             until December 31, 1989, to elect one of two options.  The               
             first option provides as follows:                                        

                       Commencing on the later of (i) January 1,                      
                  1990, or (ii) the effective date of any enacted                     
                  statutory provisions amending the Internal                          
                  Revenue Code to provide for preferential                            
                  treatment with respect to the gain arising from                     
                  the sale or exchange of a capital asset, the                        
                  Investors’ shall abandon their interests in the                     
                  JNC Partnerships by conveying them to the                           
                  Trustee, and thereafter, the Investors’                             
                  promissory notes that are the subject of claims                     
                  by Admiral against the Investors or are other-                      
                  wise held by Admiral shall be returned to the                       
                  Investors.  The return of the Investors’                            
                  promissory notes is intended as a purchase price                    
                  reduction within the meaning of I.R.C. Section                      
                  108(e)(5). * * *                                                    

             The second option provides as follows:                                   

                       Immediately after the conclusion of the                        
                  bankruptcy proceedings, the Investors shall                         
                  convey their interests in the JNC Partnerships                      
                  to the Trustee; and all promissory notes executed                   
                  by the Investors that are the subject of claims                     
                  by Admiral against the Investors or are other-                      
                  wise held by Admiral shall be returned to the
