PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

(a) General Development of Business

Capital Builders Development Properties II (the "Partnership") is a publicly held limited partnership organized under the provisions of the California Revised Limited Partnership Act pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement dated February 6, 1986, as amended (the "Agreement"). The Partnership commenced on May 22, 1986 and shall continue in full force and be effective until December 31, 2021 unless dissolved sooner by certain events as described in the Agreement. The Managing General Partner is Capital Builders, Inc., a California Corporation (CB). The Associate General Partner is the sole shareholder, President and Director of CB.

On October 6, 1986 the Partnership sold 2,407 Limited Partnership Units for a total of $1,203,500. From October 6, 1986, through May 21, 1988, the Partnership sold an additional 20,623 Units for a total of 23,030 Units. On May 21, 1988, the Partnership was closed to capital raising activity with a total of $11,515,000 proceeds raised from the offering. The General Partners have contributed capital in the amount of $1,000 to the Partnership for a 1% interest in the profits, losses, tax credits and distributions of the Partnership.

 

(b) Financial Information about Industry Segments

The Partnership is in the business of real estate development and is not a significant factor in its industry. The Partnership's investment properties are located near major urban areas and, accordingly, compete not only with similar properties in their immediate areas but with hundreds of properties throughout the urban areas. Such competition is primarily on the basis of locations, rents, services and amenities. In addition, the Partnership competes with significant numbers of individuals and organizations (including similar partnerships, real estate investment trusts and financial institutions) with respect to the purchase and sale of land, primarily on the basis of the prices and terms of such transactions.

(c) Narrative Description of the Business

The Partnership's business objective is to complete the lease-up of its existing light industrial and office buildings and eventually sell all of its properties. The primary investment objective of the Partnership is to realize capital appreciation from the sale of the Properties developed by it. A secondary investment objective is to generate cash from the leasing of Partnership Properties pending their sale for distribution to the Limited Partners. Since the Partnership has not sold all of its investment properties, it has not achieved its investment goals as yet. Although investor returns cannot be accurately determined until the investment properties are sold, due to the additional time required to lease up the investment properties, the decline in real estate values during the recession of the early 90's, and although the real estate market has shown recovery from that recession, it is anticipated that ultimate returns will be less than initially projected. Funds obtained by t he Partnership from the sale of Limited Partnership Units were used to acquire equity interest in one piece of land for development and a 40% equity interest in another for development in accordance with its investment objective.

On April 10, 1987, the Partnership entered into a joint venture called Capital Builders Roseville Venture ("JV") with Capital Builders Development Properties ("CBDP"), a California limited partnership. The Partnership and CBDP were affiliates as they had the same General Partner, but there were no direct transactions between the respective Partnerships. The Partnership contributed $900,000 resulting in a 40% interest in the profits, losses and cash distributions of the JV. CB, the Managing General Partner of the Partnership, had the same rights and obligations with respect to the JV's operations and management as it could exercise as Managing General Partner of the Partnership. The JV was dissolved as of May 1, 1997 when the Partnership purchased the remaining 60% interest in the JV.

The acquisition of the real estate is consistent with the Partnership objectives which are to acquire, develop, hold, maintain, lease, sell, or otherwise dispose of real property within the Western United States (including the states of California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, Hawaii, and Alaska), including without limitation, the acquisition of undeveloped land for development and construction of research and development, light industrial, commercial/retail, or office buildings thereon, and the acquisition of partially completed commercial real property developments for completion of development.

Although the Associate General Partners, Officers, and Directors of the Managing General Partners are experienced in real property operation and management, they also may utilize independent advisors, agents, and workers, in addition to the Partnership employees, to assist them in the operation, leasing, maintenance and improvement of the Partnership's properties.

The Partnership has no full time employees but is managed by CB, the Managing General Partner.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Partnership owned 100% equity interest in two properties, Highlands 80 Commerce Center ("H80") and Capital Professional Center ("CPC"). H80 is a three-phase development located in North Highlands, California. Phase I is a 109,083 square foot office/industrial project consisting of five multi-tenant buildings. Phase II consists of approximately 45,777 square feet of two, one-story light industrial/office space buildings and Phase III consists of one, 27,664 square foot, two-story office building. Phase III's building was placed into service during the first quarter of 2002. There is currently one lease signed for this building's space.

During the third quarter of 2002, the Highlands 80 Commerce Center ("H80") was listed for sale and categorized as discontinued operations. During the fourth quarter 2002, four out of the eight buildings listed were sold for cash amounts in excess of their book values. After payment of commissions and closing costs, the net sale proceeds were $8,525,041. These sales resulted in a recognized gain during 2002 of $4,240,907.

During the first quarter of 2003, the Partnership sold an additional Highlands 80 building. The Partnership received net proceeds of $1,758,370 after sales commissions and closing costs. The sales price exceeded the book value of the building.

The three remaining Highlands 80 buildings continue to be listed for sale. The listed sales prices exceed the book value of the buildings.

CPC was a 40,465 square foot office project, located in Roseville, California, consisting of two multi-tenant buildings which were completely developed and had achieved a stabilized occupancy. This project was placed under contract for sale during the fourth quarter 2002 and was classified as discontinued operations at such time. During the first quarter of 2003, the property was sold for a cash amount in excess of its book value. After payment of commissions and closing costs, the net sale proceeds were $7,649,350.

The sales of the Highlands 80 building and the Capital Professional Center project resulted in a recognized gain during 2003 of $4,508,980.

The Partnership's remaining investment properties are located in major urban areas and, therefore, must compete with properties of greater and lesser quality. Such competition is based primarily on rent, location, services and amenities. The properties are suitable for their current and anticipated use.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS

There is no public trading market for the Partnership's Limited Partnership Units and it is not anticipated that a public trading market will develop. Furthermore, the Partnership Agreement prohibits Limited Partners from transferring Limited Partnership Interests if such transfers would result in the dissolution of the Partnership for tax purposes under Section 708 of the Internal Revenue Code.

As of December 31, 2003, there were 1,485 holders and 23,030 Limited Partnership Units outstanding.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the month of July 2002, the Highlands 80 project (8 individual buildings) was listed for sale, and during the month of October 2002 the CPC project (two individual buildings) was listed for sale, which resulted in all real estate assets of the Partnership being listed for sale during the year ended December 31, 2002.

In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (FAS 144), the current year results from the operations and financial position of the entire entity have been classified as discontinued operations as the Partnership had listed all assets for sale before December 31, 2002 and the Partnership had met all of the other criteria of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. Additionally, all prior periods have been stated as if the entire entity had been a discontinued operation. Depreciation was ceased on all buildings or project when the buildings or project was listed for sale in accordance with FAS 144.

As of December 31, 2003, all buildings owned by the Partnership had been sold with the exception of three H80 buildings. The three remaining H80 buildings continue to be listed for sale and continue to meet the held for sale criteria in FAS 144 and are classified as held for sale and as discontinued operations. Although the unsold buildings have been held for sale in excess of one year, the delay in sale is outside of Management's control and Management remains committed to its plan to sell the buildings as evidenced by the buildings being continuously listed for sale.

Two of the three H80 buildings have had offers well in excess of their book values; however, Management had not accepted these offers as of December 31, 2003 as Management would rather sell all three buildings at once.

The third building was originally listed for sale as an owner/user building without significant tenant improvements being constructed, as is common in the commercial office space real estate market, due to the fact that owner/users generally prefer to design or help design their tenant improvements. In an effort to make the third building more marketable for sale, rather than reducing the sale price, the Partnership made certain tenant improvements to approximately one-half of the building and began leasing up suites. It is Management's intention to now market the building to both owner/users and investment purchasers. As the building continues to increase its percentage of leased space, the building is expected to become more appealing to the investment buyer. The third building continues to be available for immediate sale in its present condition and Management's plan is to continue to offer the remaining vacant space for lease or sale.

261:

Management anticipates the remaining three H80 buildings will be sold by the end of the second or third quarter of 2004.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership commenced operations on May 22, 1986 upon the sale of the minimum number of Limited Partnership Units. The Partnership's initial source of cash was from the sale of Limited Partnership Units. Through the offering of Units, the Partnership raised $11,515,000 (represented by 23,030 Limited Partnership Units). Cash generated from the sale of Limited Partnership Units was used to acquire land and for the development of a mixed use commercial project and a 40% interest in a commercial office project. In May 1997, the remaining 60% interest in the project was acquired.

The Partnership's primary current sources of cash are from cash balances, property rental income and proceeds from the partial sale of its assets. As of December 31, 2003, the Partnership had $1,104,912 in unrestricted cash. It is the Partnership's intention to utilize existing cash balances for continued leasing operations (tenant improvements and leasing commissions) at Highlands 80.

During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Partnership incurred $454,054 in improvements for its Highlands 80 property. These improvements consisted of tenant improvements in Highlands 80 Phase III (a 27,664 sq. foot office building). The Partnership funded these costs with proceeds from sales and accounts payable.

During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Partnership received $9,407,720 of net sales proceeds from the sale of one H80 building and the Capital Professional Center project. The net proceeds from sale were primarily used to pay $4,084,942 of the CPC loan obligation, which represented the remaining outstanding loan balances for the entire Partnership. The remaining net proceeds were used to pay distributions to the Limited Partners in the amount of $4,999,997 for the year ended December 31, 2003, and project improvements as discussed above.

The Partnership may continue to incur improvement costs as the Highlands 80 Phase III building is leased. The total projected tenant improvement costs that may be incurred during 2004 are estimated to be $415,000. These costs will be funded with cash reserves.

During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Partnership paid $33,929 in management fees to its Managing General Partner. Management fees are classified on the Statements of Operations as an Operating Expense. The General Partner is currently charging 5% of collected revenue.

The Partnership's ability to maintain or improve cash flow is dependent upon its ability to maintain and improve the occupancy of its investment properties. Management believes the Partnership's financial resources should be adequate to meet 2004's obligations and no adverse change in liquidity is foreseen. The Partnership's properties' current market values are in excess of their carrying values.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Partnership's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Partnership's financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements requires Partnership Management to make estimates and judgments that effect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, Partnership Management evaluates its estimates, including those related to long lived assets, accounts receivable, deferred revenue, and contingencies and litigation. Additionally, on an on-going basis Partnership Management also evaluates the debt obligations of the Partnership and evaluates the Partnership's ability to satisfy these obligations. Partnership Management bases its estimates on current information, historical experience and or various other assum ptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recognition of revenue that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Partnership believes the following critical accounting policy affects its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its financial statements:

Valuation of Investment Property (Long-Lived Assets):

Investment property is evaluated for impairment on a continual basis based on the property's occupancy levels, annual cash flows, and projected cash flows based on the rental market and other factors including prospective new tenants.

Classification as Discontinued Operations:

All real estate assets of the Partnership had been listed for sale during the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002.

In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (FAS 144), the current year results from the operations and financial position of the entire entity have been classified as discontinued operations as the Partnership had listed all assets for sale before December 31, 2002 and the Partnership had met all of the other criteria of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. Additionally, all prior periods have been stated as if the entire entity had been a discontinued operation. Depreciation was ceased on all buildings or project when the buildings or project was listed for sale in accordance with FAS 144.

Results of Operations

2003 vs 2002

All real estate assets of the Partnership had been listed for sale during the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (FAS 144), the current year results from the operations and financial position of the entire entity have been classified as discontinued operations. Additionally, all prior periods have been stated as if the entire entity had been a discontinued operation. Depreciation was ceased on all buildings or project when the buildings or project was listed for sale in accordance with FAS 144.

During the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to December 31, 2002, the Partnership's total revenues decreased by $1,804,570 (72%), while its expenses decreased by $2,019,091 (73.2%), resulting in a decrease in net loss from operations by $214,521 (85.4%).

The primary reason for the decrease in revenue, expenses and operating loss is due to the Partnership selling portions of its properties.

During the fourth quarter 2002, the Partnership sold four out of the eight Highlands 80 buildings. During the first quarter of 2003, the Partnership sold an additional Highlands 80 building and its entire Capital Professional Center project, leaving the Partnership with only three remaining Highlands 80 buildings. These remaining buildings represent 34% (based on square footage) of the Partnership's pre-sale holdings. These buildings are listed for sale and at their current combined occupancy of 69% as of December 31, 2003 and they are producing a positive cash flow.

The properties sold during 2003 netted the Partnership $9,407,720 in cash proceeds after commissions and closing costs. The sale of these buildings also resulted in gain recognition of $4,508,980 for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

2002 vs 2001

During the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to December 31, 2001, the Partnership's total revenues decreased by $170,125 (6.4%), while its expenses increased by $6,655 (.2%).

The decrease in revenue was primarily due to a decrease in occupancy for Highlands 80 during the year and a loss of revenue from buildings sold during the fourth quarter of 2002.

Expenses increased for the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to December 31, 2001, primarily due to the net effect of:

a) $32,270 (6.2%) increase in operating expenses due to an increase in utility and insurance costs and the recognition of bad debt expense of $16,842 for uncollectible rent;

b) $119,914 (28.6%) increase in repairs and maintenance primarily due to readying Highlands 80 for sale to a condition that would maximize the sales prices;

c) $11,986 (7.6%) decrease in property taxes due to the partial sale of Highlands 80;

d) $75,549 (37.4%) increase in general and administrative due to an increase in administrative costs associated with additional reporting requirements by the SEC and IRS, an increase in audit fees, and sale study fees for Highlands 80; and

e) $206,464 (31.9%) decrease in depreciation due to both the Highlands 80 and Capital Professional Center projects being re-classified as held for sale in the third and fourth quarter, respectively, and therefore depreciation was no longer recorded on those assets.

During the fourth quarter 2002, the Partnership sold four out of the eight Highlands 80 buildings. The Partnership received net proceeds of $8,525,041 after commissions and closing costs. The sale of these buildings resulted in gain recognition of $4,240,907. During the year ended December 31, 2001, no buildings were sold.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 143, which requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. When the liability is initially recorded, the entity capitalizes a cost by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over time, the liability is accreted to its present value each period, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset. Upon settlement of the liability, an entity either settles the obligation for its recorded amount or incurs a gain or loss upon settlement. This Statement was adopted on January 1, 2003 and did not have an impact on the Financial Statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FIN 45, which elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of the guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of this Interpretation are applied prospectively to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The adoption of these recognition provisions did not have a significant impact on the Financial Statements. The disclosure requirements of this Interpretation are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. This Interpretation did not have an impact on the Financial Statements.

(A California Limited Partnership)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003, 2002, AND 2001

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND

ORGANIZATION

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows:

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of Capital Builders Development Properties II (The "Partnership") are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and therefore revenue is recorded as earned and costs and expenses are recorded as incurred.

During July 2002, the Highlands 80 ("H80") buildings (8 individual buildings) were listed for sale, along with the Capital Professional Center project ("CPC") (two individual buildings). This resulted in all real estate assets of the Partnership being listed for sale during the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. As discussed in Note 3, five of the eight H80 buildings and CPC have been sold as of the quarter ended March 31, 2003, leaving three H80 buildings unsold as of December 31, 2003. During the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2003, these buildings were formally re-listed for sale. However, the buildings were continuously available for sale throughout the year ended December 31, 2003.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (FAS 144), the current year results from the operations and financial position of the entire entity, as well as all other periods presented, have been classified as discontinued operations as the Partnership had listed all assets for sale before December 31, 2003 and 2002 and the Partnership had met all of the other criteria of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. Depreciation was ceased on all buildings or project when the buildings or project were listed for sale in accordance with FAS 144.

Additionally, in accordance with FAS 144, all unsold buildings were evaluated for impairment. No impairment adjustments were required.

As of December 31, 2003, all buildings owned by the Partnership had been sold with the exception of three H80 buildings. The three remaining H80 buildings continue to be listed for sale and continue to meet the held for sale criteria in FAS 144 and are classified as held for sale and as discontinued operations. Although the unsold buildings have been held for sale in excess of one year, the delay in sale is outside of Management's control and Management remains committed to its plan to sell the buildings as evidenced by the buildings being continuously listed for sale.

 

Management has not and will not adopt a strategy for dissolving the Partnership until such time as a majority of the Partnership's properties have been sold, sales contracts for the balance of the properties are pending, and the General Partner approves such a plan.

Organization

Capital Builders Development Properties II, a California Limited Partnership, is owned under the laws of the State of California. The Managing General Partner is Capital Builders, Inc., a California corporation (CB).

The Partnership is in the business of real estate development and is not a significant factor in its industry. The Partnership's investment properties are located near major urban areas and, accordingly, compete not only with similar properties in their immediate areas but with hundreds of properties throughout the urban areas. Such competition is primarily on the basis of locations, rents, services and amenities. In addition, the Partnership competes with significant numbers of individuals and organizations (including similar companies, real estate investment trusts and financial institutions) with respect to the purchase and sale of land, primarily on the basis of the prices and terms of such transactions.

Investment Properties

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

The Partnership's investment property consists of commercial land, buildings and leasehold improvements that are carried net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation was provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives of three to forty years. The straight-line method of depreciation was followed for financial reporting purposes. Depreciation and amortization was ceased when the corresponding real estate assets were listed for sale.

Other Assets

Included in other assets are loan fees. Loan fees are amortized over the life of the related note. In conjunction with the payoff of all notes, loan fees were fully amortized.

Lease Commissions

Lease commissions are costs associated with obtaining leases with terms in excess of one year. The Partnership capitalizes these costs and amortizes them on a straight line basis over their related lease term. This amortization was ceased when the corresponding real estate assets were listed for sale.

Income Taxes

The Partnership has no provision for income taxes since all income or losses are reported separately on the individual Partners' tax returns.

Revenue Recognition

Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease, which may differ from the scheduled rental payments.

Gains from building sales are recognized using the full accrual method when title has passed to the buyer, the collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured, the required minimum cash down payment has been received, and the Fund has no continuing involvement with the property. When a sale does not meet the requirements for full profit recognition, the sale or a portion of the profit thereon is deferred until such requirements are met using the deposit, installment, or cost recovery methods, as appropriate under the circumstances.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon analysis of possible losses from trade receivables. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $360 as of December 31, 2003 and $20,049 as of December 31, 2002. The provision for losses during the years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 was $-0- and $16,648, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) per Limited Partnership Unit

The net income (loss) per Limited Partnership Unit is computed based on the weighted average number of Units outstanding of 23,030 during the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001.

Statement of Cash Flows

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Partnership considers all short-term investments with a maturity, at date of purchase, of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires Partnership Management to make estimates and judgments that effect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, Partnership Management evaluates its estimates, including those related to long lived assets, accounts receivable, and contingencies and litigation. Partnership Management bases its estimates on current information, historical experience and or various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recognition of revenue that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

NOTE 2 - RELATED PARTY EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT AND FEE ARRANGEMENT

The Managing General Partner (Capital Builders, Inc.) and the Associate General Partners are entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership and certain fees from the Partnership. These fees include: a portion of the sales commissions payable by the Partnership with respect to the sale of the Partnership Units; an acquisition fee of up to 12.5% of gross proceeds from the sale of the Partnership Units; a property management fee up to 6% of gross rental revenues realized by the Partnership with respect to its properties; a subordinated real estate commission of up to 3% of the gross sales price of the properties; and a subordinated 25% share of the Partnership's distributions of cash from sales or refinancing. The property management fee currently being charged is 5% of gross rental revenues collected.

All acquisition fees and expenses, all underwriting commissions, and all offering and organizational expenses which can be paid are limited to 20% of the gross proceeds from sales of Partnership Units provided the Partnership incurs no borrowing to develop its properties. However, these fees may increase to a maximum of 33% of the gross offering proceeds based upon the total acquisition and development costs, including borrowing. Since the formation of the Partnership, 27.5% of these fees were paid to the Partnership's related parties, leaving a remaining maximum of 5.5% ($633,325) of the gross offering proceeds. The Managing General Partner does not believe that any remaining portion of these fees are payable by the Partnership, although the ultimate amount of these costs cannot be determined until the tenant improvements in the remaining Highlands 80 Phase III property are completed.

The total management fees paid to the Managing General Partner were $33,929, $125,320 and $131,105 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, while total reimbursement of expenses was $267,989, $288,229 and $270,706, respectively.

Management fees are classified on the Statements of Operations as an Operating Expenses. Reimbursement of expenses are primarily for investor services, preparation of SEC filings, audit coordination and other Partnership management functions. Expense reimbursements are classified as Operating Expenses and General and Administrative expenses on the Statements of Operations.

In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner may hire outside consultants or perform the necessary accounting, reporting and investor service functions internally, and pass through the associated costs. It has been determined by the General Partner that if outside consultants were to perform these functions, the related costs would be substantially higher to the Partnership.

The Managing General Partner will reduce its future participation in proceeds from sales by an amount equal to the loss on the abandonment of option fees in 1988 ($110,000) and interest on the amount at a rate equal to that of the borrowed funds rate as determined by construction or permanent funds utilized by the Partnership.

NOTE 9 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS No. 143). This statement requires an enterprise to record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. SFAS No. 143 also requires the enterprise to record the contra to the initial obligation as an increase to the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset, i.e., the associated asset retirement costs, and to depreciate that cost over the life of the asset. The liability is increased at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time, i.e., accretion expense, and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the initial fair value measurement. The Partnership adopted SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2003. This statement did not have an impact on the Partnership's financial reporting and related disclosures.

FASB interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others", (Interpretation 45), requires disclosures in interim and annual financial statements about obligations under certain guarantees issued by the Partnership. Furthermore, it requires recognition at the beginning of a guarantee of a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee, with limited exceptions including: i) a parent's guarantee of a subsidiary's debt to a third party, and ii) a subsidiary's guarantee of the debts owed to a third party by either its parent or another subsidiary of that parent. The interpretation was effective for the Partnership on January 1, 2003; however, this interpretation had no impact on the Partnership.

NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Partnership is involved in litigation arising in the normal course of its business. In the opinion of management, the Partnership's recovery or liability if any, under any pending litigation would not materially affect its financial condition or results of operations.

 

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

NONE

 

ITEM 9a. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

The Partnership maintains "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that the Partnership files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Partnership's president and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating its disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that no matter how well conceived and operated, disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. The Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet and management believes that they meet reasonable assurance standards. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the president and chief financial officer of Capital Builders, Inc. have concluded that, subject to the limitations noted above, the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that material information relating to the Partnership, is made known to them by others within those entities.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

During the last fiscal quarter, there were no changes in the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership's internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT

The Partnership has no directors. The Partnership is managed by Capital Builders, Inc. ("CB"), the Managing General Partner. The following are the names and other information relating to the Managing General Partner. No expiration date has been set for the term during which the Managing General Partner is to serve.

MANAGING GENERAL PARTNER

The Partnership is being managed by CB, the Managing General Partner. CB is a California corporation organized in May 1978. CB relocated on October 8, 1999 and moved its executive offices to 1130 Iron Point Road, Suite 170, Folsom, California 95630 (telephone number 916-353-0500). To date, CB has organized ten partnerships to engage in commercial real estate development. As the General Partner, CB may be responsible for certain liabilities that a partnership it manages is unable to pay.

The Partnership is governed, pursuant to the terms and provisions of its Partnership Agreement, by its general partner, Capital Builders, Inc. ("CB"). The business of CB, in turn, is supervised by its board of directors, consisting of those persons identified below. One of the four members of the board of directors of CB is an officer of CB and therefore is not "independent" as defined by the rules of the SEC. The board of directors of CB oversees the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Partnership and the audits of the financial statements of the Partnership.

The officers, directors, and key personnel of CB are as follows:

Name

Office

Michael J. Metzger

President and Director

Mark J. Leggio

Director

Ellen Wilcox

Director

Andrew Gianulias

Director

Michael J. Metzger: Mr. Metzger is responsible for the general management of CB. Mr. Metzger assumed responsibility for the management of CB in December 1986. He was formerly the Executive Vice President of The Elder-Nelson Company (EN) and its subsidiary, the Elder-Nelson Equities Corporation - affiliated companies which provided underwriting and administrative services to CB. Prior to joining EN in 1977, Mr. Metzger was Partner/General Manager for two years in his family's real estate contracting, development and syndication business. Mr. Metzger has also had five years of experience in manufacturing management and served as an Army Officer for four years.

Ellen Wilcox: Ellen Wilcox is a Registered Investment Advisor, the current Owner/Manager of Wealth Management Associates of America and the former Owner/Manager of Wilcox Financial Services.

Code of Ethics

CB has in place an employee handbook that includes standards of employee conduct and that specifies prohibited conduct. The employee handbook is considered by CB satisfactory for the conduct of its business, including the management of the Partnership. However, the employee handbook does not qualify as a "code of ethics" within the meaning of Item 406 of the SEC's Regulation S-K.

Financial Expert on the Board of Directors

The board of directors of CB does not have an audit committee; rather, the board itself oversees the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Partnership and the audits of the financial statements of the Partnership. Mr. Metzger, President and director of CB, and Ken Buckler, Chief Financial Officer of CB, in turn, on behalf of CB, oversee the establishment and implementation of CB's financial and reporting controls and procedures and the audits of the financial statements of the Partnership. While director Leggio may have the qualifications of an "audit committee financial expert" within the meaning of the SEC's Regulation S-K (Item 401(h)), because Mr. Leggio is not involved in the direct review of the audit of the financial statements of the Partnership, the board of CB has not designated Mr.. Leggio as the board's "audit committee financial expert."

 

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Partnership does not have any officers or employees and, therefore, does not pay compensation to such persons. The Partnership's business is conducted by the Managing General Partner which is entitled under Article IV of the Partnership Agreement to receive underwriting commissions, acquisition fees, property management fees, subordinated real estate commission, share of distribution and an interest in the Partnership. The Managing General Partner's fees totaled $33,929 in 2003, consisting entirely of property management fees which are calculated as 5% of gross rental revenues collected.

In addition to the fees described above, the General Partner is entitled to reimbursement for out of pocket expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership. Such expenses aggregated $267,989 in 2003.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND

MANAGEMENT

The Managing General Partner contributed $1,000 to the Partnership Capital accounts, however, no securities were issued in respect thereof. No person is known to the Partnership to own beneficially more than 5% of the Units.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The Partnership agreement (see Part IV, Item 14(a)(4) Exhibits) which was executed in 1985, authorized the compensation set forth below to be paid to the Managing General Partner and to affiliates of the Managing General Partner.

During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Managing General Partner and/or its affiliate received $267,989 for reimbursement of administrative services and $33,929 for property management and administrative fees.
