(UNAUDITED)
1. Organization
America First Mortgage Investments, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in
Maryland on July 24, 1997.
Other than to issue 90,621 shares of its common stock, $.01 par value, at par,
the Company had not commenced any material business operations as of March 31,
1998. Accordingly, the Company had earned no income or incurred any expenses
as of that date. However, as of that date the Company had entered into a
merger agreement with, among others, America First Participating/Preferred
Equity Mortgage Fund (PREP Fund 1), America First PREP 2 (PREP Fund 2) and
America First PREP Fund 2 Pension Series Limited Partnership (Pension Fund)
(collectively referred to as the "PREP Funds") under which the Company intends
to issue up to 8,971,506 additional shares of common stock to holders of
Exchangeable Units ("Units") and Beneficial Unit Certificates ("BUCs") of the
PREP Funds (the "Merger Agreement"). The merger is subject to the approval of
the holders of Units of PREP 1 and BUCs of PREP 2 (but not necessarily the
holders of BUCs of Pension) and the Company has submitted a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection
therewith. The Company will be the surviving entity of the merger and will
commence operations upon consummation of the Merger. See Note 4.
2. Federal Income Taxes
The Company expects to elect and qualify to be taxed as a real estate
investment trust (REIT) under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and
the corresponding provisions of the state law. Accordingly, the Company will
not be subject to federal or state income tax to the extent of its
distributions to stockholders. In order to maintain its status as REIT, the
Company is required, among other things, to distribute at least 95% of its
taxable income.
3. Related Party Transactions
America First Mortgage Advisory Corporation (the Advisor) will manage the
operations and investments of the Company and perform administrative services
for the Company for which it will receive an annual management fee payable
monthly in arrears in an amount equal to 1.10% per annum of the first $300
million of Stockholders' Equity of the Company, plus .80% per annum of the
portion of Stockholders' Equity of the Company above $300 million. The
Company will also pay the Advisor, as incentive compensation for each fiscal
quarter, an amount equal to 20% of the dollar amount by which the annualized
Return on Equity for such fiscal quarter exceeds the amount necessary to
provide an annualized Return on Equity equal to the Ten-Year U.S. Treasury
Rate plus 1%.
America First Properties Management Company L.L.C. (the Manager), will provide
property management services for certain of the multifamily properties to be
obtained by the Company. The Manager will receive a management fee equal to a
stated percentage of the gross revenues generated by the property under
management, ranging from 3.75% to 5% of gross revenues. The Manager is an
affiliate of the advisor.
4. Subsequent Event
On April 10, 1998, the Company merged with PREP Fund 1 and PREP Fund 2 and
Pension Fund became a partnership subsidiary of the Company pursuant to the
terms of the Merger Agreement. The Company issued a total of 9,032,239 shares
of Common Stock in connection therewith and acquired the assets of PREP Fund 1
and PREP Fund 2 and controls in excess of 98% of the partnership interests of
the Pension Fund.
Item 2.
AMERICA FIRST MORTGAGE INVESTMENTS, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The Company had not commenced its business operations as of March 31, 1998.
Accordingly, the Company did not earn any income or incur any expenses during
the quarter ended March 31, 1998. In addition, the Company was only
nominally capitalized as of that date.
As of March 31, 1998, the Company was a party to a merger agreement with,
among other, America First Participating Preferred Equity Mortgage Fund
Limited Partnership (PREP Fund 1), America First PREP Fund 2 Limited
Partnership (PREP Fund 2) and America First PREP Fund 2 Pension Series
(Pension Fund), (collectively referred to as the "PREP Funds") pursuant to
which the Company expects to acquire by merger, substantially, all of the
assets and liabilities of the PREP Funds in exchange for up to 9,062,127
shares of the Company's common stock. Upon consummation of the merger, the
Company will commence its business operations. The merger is subject to
various conditions, including consent of the holders of Units and BUCs of the
PREP Funds; provided that this merger with PREP 1 and PREP 2 may proceed
without the consent of the BUC holders of Pension Fund.
This report contains forward looking statements that reflect management's
current beliefs and estimates of future economic circumstances, industry
conditions, the Partnership's performance and financial results. All

assumed future results of operations of the Partnership and the real estate

Results of Operations"), constitute forward-looking statements. BUC holders
and others should understand that these forward looking statements are subject
