Development and Description of Business --------------------------------------- Information concerning the business of American Insured Mortgage Investors (the "Partnership") is contained in Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in Notes 1, 5, 6 and 7 of the Notes to Financial Statements of the Partnership (filed in response to Item 8 hereof), all of which are incorporated by reference herein. See also Schedule IV-Mortgage Loans on Real Estate for the table of the Insured Mortgages (as defined below) invested in by the Partnership as of December 31, 2001, which is hereby incorporated by reference herein. Employees --------- The Partnership has no employees. The business of the Partnership is managed by CRIIMI, Inc. (the "General Partner"), while its portfolio of mortgages is managed by AIM Acquisition Partners, L.P. (the "Advisor") pursuant to an advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). The General Partner is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE Inc. ("CRIIMI MAE"). The general partner of the Advisor is AIM Acquisition Corporation ("AIM Acquisition") and the limited partners include, but are not limited to, AIM Acquisition, The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P., Sun America Investments, Inc. (successor to Broad, Inc.) and CRI/AIM Investment, L.P., an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE. AIM Acquisition is a Delaware corporation that is primarily owned by Sun America Investments, Inc. and The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P. 4 Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor will render services to the Partnership, including but not limited to, the management of the Partnership's portfolio of mortgages and the disposition of the Partnership's mortgages. Such services will be subject to the review and ultimate authority of the General Partner. However, the General Partner is required to receive the consent of the Advisor prior to taking certain significant actions, including but not limited to the disposition of mortgages, any transaction or agreement with the General Partner or its affiliates, or any material change as to policies regarding distributions or reserves of the Partnership. The Advisor is permitted to delegate the performance of services pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement"). The delegation of such services will not relieve the Advisor of its obligation to perform such services. CRIIMI MAE Services Limited Partnership ("CMSLP"), an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE, manages the Partnership's portfolio, pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The general partner of CMSLP is CMSLP Management Company, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE. Competition ----------- In disposing of mortgage investments, the Partnership competes with private investors, mortgage banking companies, mortgage brokers, state and local government agencies, lending institutions, trust funds, pension funds, and other entities, some with similar objectives to those of the Partnership and some of which are or may be affiliates of the Partnership, its General Partner, the Advisor, CMSLP or their respective affiliates. Some of these entities may have substantially greater capital resources and experience in disposing of Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") insured mortgages than the Partnership. CRIIMI MAE and its affiliates also may serve as general partners, sponsors or managers of real estate limited partnerships, Real Estate Investments Trusts ("REITS") or other entities in the future. The Partnership may attempt to dispose of mortgage investments at or about the same time that CRIIMI MAE, one or more of the "AIM Funds" (defined as the Partnership, American Insured Mortgage Investors - Series 85, L.P. ("AIM 85"), American Insured Mortgage Investors L.P. - Series 86 ("AIM 86") and American Insured Mortgage Investors L.P. - Series 88 ("AIM 88")), and/or other entities sponsored or managed by CRIIMI MAE or its affiliates, are attempting to dispose of mortgages. As a result of market conditions that could limit dispositions, CMSLP and its affiliates could be faced with conflicts of interest in determining which mortgages would be disposed of. Both CMSLP and the General Partner, however, are subject to their fiduciary duties in evaluating the appropriate action to be taken when faced with such conflicts. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Although the Partnership does not own the underlying real estate, the mortgages underlying the Partnership's mortgage investments are non-recourse first liens on the respective multifamily residential developments. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS There are no material legal proceedings to which the Partnership is a party. ITEM 4.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General ------- The following discussion and analysis contains statements that may be considered forward looking. These statements contain a number of risks and uncertainties as discussed herein and in Item 1 of this Form 10-K that could cause actual results to differ materially. The American Insured Mortgage Investors (the "Partnership") was formed under the Uniform Limited Partnership Act in the State of California on July 12, 1983. During the period from March 1, 1984 (the initial closing date of the Partnership's public offering) through December 31, 1984, the Partnership, pursuant to its public offering of 10,000,000 depositary units of limited partnership interest ("Units"), raised a total of $200,000,000 in gross proceeds. In addition, the initial limited partner contributed $2,500 to the capital of the Partnership and received 125 Units of limited partnership interest in exchange therefor. CRIIMI, Inc. (the "General Partner") holds a partnership interest of 2.9% and is a wholly owned subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE Inc. ("CRIIMI MAE"). AIM Acquisition Partners, L.P. (the "Advisor") serves as the advisor to the Partnership pursuant to an advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). The general partner of the Advisor is AIM Acquisition Corporation ("AIM Acquisition") and the limited partners include, but are not limited to, AIM Acquisition, The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P., Sun America Investments, Inc. (successor to Broad, Inc.) and CRI/AIM Investment, L.P., an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE. AIM Acquisition is a Delaware corporation that is primarily owned by Sun America Investments, Inc. and The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P. Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor will render services to the Partnership, including but not limited to, the management of the Partnership's portfolio of mortgages and the disposition of the Partnership's mortgages. Such services will be subject to the review and ultimate authority of the General Partner. However, the General Partner is required to receive the consent of the Advisor prior to taking certain significant actions, including but not limited to the disposition of mortgages, any transaction or agreement with the General Partner or its affiliates, or any material change as to policies regarding distributions or reserves of the Partnership. The Advisor is permitted to delegate the performance of services pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement"). The delegation of such services will not relieve the Advisor of its obligation to perform such services. CRIIMI MAE Services Limited Partnership ("CMSLP"), an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE, manages the Partnership's portfolio, pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The general partner of CMSLP is CMSLP Management Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE. Mortgage Investments -------------------- Prior to the expiration of the Partnership's reinvestment period in November 1988, the Partnership was engaged in the business of originating mortgage loans ("Originated Insured Mortgages") and acquiring mortgage loans ("Acquired Insured Mortgages" and, together with Originated Insured Mortgages, referred to herein as "Insured Mortgages"). In accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement, the Partnership is no longer authorized to originate or acquire Insured Mortgages and, consequently, its primary objective is to manage its portfolio of mortgage investments, all of which are insured (as discussed below) under Section 221(d)(4) or Section 231 of the National Housing Act of 1937, as amended (the "National Housing Act"). The Partnership is a liquidating partnership and as it continues to liquidate its mortgage investments and investors receive distributions of return of capital and taxable gains, investors should expect a reduction in earnings and distributions due to the decreasing mortgage base. The partnership agreement states that the Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2008, unless previously terminated under the provisions of the partnership agreement. 8 Most of the Insured Mortgages held by the Partnership apply to the Section 221 program of the National Housing Act of 1937, as amended (the "Section 221 program"). Under the Section 221 program, a mortgagee has the right to assign a mortgage ("put") to FHA at the expiration of 20 years from the date of final endorsement if the mortgage is not in default at such time. Any mortgagee electing to assign an FHA-insured mortgage to FHA will receive, in exchange therefor, United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") debentures having a total face value equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the FHA-insured mortgage plus accrued interest to the date of assignment. These HUD debentures will mature 10 years from the date of assignment and will bear interest at the "going Federal rate" at such date. This assignment procedure is applicable to an insured mortgage which had a firm or conditional FHA commitment for insurance on or before November 30, 1983. The Partnership anticipates that each eligible insured mortgage, for which a prepayment has not occurred and which has not been sold, will be assigned to FHA at the expiration of 20 years from the date of final endorsement. The Partnership, therefore, does not anticipate holding any eligible insured mortgage beyond the expiration of 20 years from final endorsement of that insured mortgage. The Partnership has initiated its request to put these mortgages to FHA as they become due. Once the servicer of a mortgage has filed an application for insurance benefits under Section 221, the Partnership will no longer receive the monthly principal and interest on the applicable mortgage. The servicer of the mortgage on Fox Run Apartments filed an application for insurance benefits under the Section 221 program of the National Housing Act of 1937 in May 2000. In December 2000, HUD issued assignment proceeds in the form of a 7.125% debenture for this mortgage. The mortgage was owned 50% by AIM 84 and 50% by an affiliate of the Partnership, American Insured Mortgage Investors - Series 85, L.P. ("AIM 85"). The debenture, with a face value of $2,385,233, was issued to AIM 85 with interest payable semi-annually on January 1 and July 1. The Partnership recognized a gain of approximately $188,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 related to this assignment. The net proceeds and accrued interest are included on the Balance Sheet in Due from affiliate as of December 31, 2001. In January 2002, the debenture was liquidated at par value. The Partnership received approximately $1.2 million for its share of the debenture proceeds, including interest of approximately $42,000. A distribution of approximately $0.11 per Unit related to the receipt of these proceeds is expected to be declared in March 2002. The Partnership's investment in Insured Mortgages consists of FHA-insured mortgage loans ("FHA-Insured Loans") and participation certificates evidencing a 100% undivided beneficial interest in government insured multifamily mortgages issued or sold pursuant to FHA programs ("FHA-Insured Certificates"). The mortgages underlying the FHA-Insured Certificates and FHA-Insured Loans are non-recourse first liens on multifamily residential developments. As of December 31, 2001, the Partnership had invested in 10 Insured Mortgages, with an aggregate amortized cost of approximately $21 million, a face value of approximately $24 million and a fair value of approximately $24 million, as discussed below. 9 The following is a discussion of the types of the Partnership's mortgage investments, along with the risks related to each type of investment: Investment in FHA-Insured Loans ------------------------------- Listed below is the Partnership's aggregate investment in FHA-Insured Loans as of December 31, 2001 and 2000: December 31, 2001 2000 ---- ---- Number of Acquired Insured Mortgages 3 3 Originated Insured Mortgage 1 1 Amortized Cost $ 12,427,801 $ 12,597,098 Face Value 14,428,107 14,694,371 Fair Value 13,846,281 14,222,808 All of the FHA-Insured Loans were current with respect to the payment of principal and interest as of March 1, 2002. Investment in FHA-Insured Certificates -------------------------------------- Listed below is the Partnership's aggregate investment in FHA-Insured Certificates as of December 31, 2001 and 2000: December 31, 2001 2000 ---- ---- Number of mortgages (1) 6 7 Amortized Cost $ 8,415,866 $ 9,536,007 Face Value 10,037,064 11,433,137 Fair Value 9,727,346 11,258,675 (1) In September 2001, the mortgage on Berryhill Apartments was prepaid. The Partnership received net proceeds of approximately $1.2 million and recognized a gain of approximately $190,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001. A distribution of approximately $0.12 per Unit related to the prepayment of this mortgage was declared in September 2001 and paid to Unitholders in November 2001. As of March 1, 2002, all of the Partnership's FHA-Insured Certificates were current with respect to the payment of principal and interest, except for the mortgage on Westbrook Apartments, which is delinquent with respect to the February 2002 payment of principal and interest. 10 Results of Operations --------------------- 2001 versus 2000 ---------------- Net earnings decreased slightly for 2001 as compared to 2000 primarily due to a decrease in mortgage investment income, as discussed below. Mortgage investment income decreased for 2001 as compared to 2000 primarily due to a reduction in the mortgage base. The mortgage base decreased due to two mortgage dispositions with a principal balance of approximately $2.4 million, representing an approximate 9% decrease in the aggregate principal balance of the total mortgage portfolio since November 2000. Interest and other income increased for 2001 as compared to 2000. This increase is primarily due to the timing of temporary investment of mortgage disposition proceeds prior to distribution. Asset management fee to related parties decreased for 2001 as compared to 2000 primarily due to a reduction in the mortgage base, as previously discussed. In 2001, a gain of approximately $190,000 was recognized from the prepayment of the mortgage on Berryhill Apartments, as discussed above. In 2000, a gain of approximately $188,000 was realized on the assignment of the mortgage on Fox Run Apartments, as previously discussed. 2000 versus 1999 ---------------- Net earnings increased for 2000 as compared to 1999 primarily due to an increase in gains on mortgage dispositions. In 2000, a gain of approximately $188,000 was realized on the assignment of the mortgage on Fox Run Apartments. In 1999, a gain of approximately $67,000 was recognized from the prepayment of the mortgage on Lakeside Apartments. Mortgage investment income decreased slightly for 2000 as compared to 1999 primarily due to the normal amortization of the mortgage base. In addition, the mortgage base decreased due to one mortgage disposition in November 1999 with a principal balance of approximately $382,000. This represents an approximate 1.4% decrease in the aggregate principal balance of the total mortgage portfolio since October 1999. Interest and other income decreased for 2000 as compared to 1999 primarily due to the timing of temporary investment of mortgage disposition proceeds prior to distribution. General and administrative expenses decreased for 2000 as compared to 1999 primarily due to a decrease in temporary employment costs. 11 Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- On October 5, 1998, CRIIMI MAE, the parent of the General Partner, and CRIIMI MAE Management, Inc., an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE and provider of personnel and administrative services to the Partnership, filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). On November 22, 2000, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland, in Greenbelt, Maryland (the "Bankruptcy Court") confirmed CRIIMI MAE's and CRIIMI MAE Management, Inc.'s reorganization plan. On April 17, 2001, CRIIMI MAE and CRIIMI MAE Management, Inc. emerged from bankruptcy. The Partnership's operating cash receipts, derived from payments of principal and interest on Insured Mortgages plus cash receipts from interest on short-term investments, are the Partnership's principal sources of cash flows, and were sufficient for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 to meet operating requirements. The Partnership anticipates its cash flows to be sufficient to meet operating expense requirements for 2002. The basis for paying distributions to Unitholders is net proceeds from mortgage dispositions, if any, and cash flow from operations, which includes regular interest income and principal from Insured Mortgages after paying all expenses of the Partnership. Although Insured Mortgages yield a fixed monthly mortgage payment once purchased, the cash distributions paid to the Unitholders will vary during each period due to (1) the fluctuating yields in the short-term money market where the monthly mortgage payment receipts are temporarily invested prior to the payment of quarterly distributions, (2) the reduction in the asset base resulting from monthly mortgage payments received or mortgage dispositions, (3) variations in the cash flow attributable to the delinquency or default of Insured Mortgages and professional fees and foreclosure costs incurred in connection with those Insured Mortgages and (4) variations in the Partnership's operating expenses. Since the Partnership is obligated to distribute the proceeds of mortgage prepayments, sales and insurance of Insured Mortgages (as defined in the partnership agreement) to its Unitholders, the size of the Partnership's portfolio will continue to decrease. The magnitude of the decrease will depend upon the size of the Insured Mortgages, which are prepaid, sold or assigned for insurance proceeds. Cash Flow - 2001 versus 2000 ---------------------------- Net cash provided by operating activities in 2001 as compared to 2000 did not change significantly. Net cash provided by investing activities increased for 2001 as compared to 2000, due to the increase in proceeds received from the disposition of mortgages, as previously discussed. Net cash used in financing activities increased for 2001 as compared to 2000 due to an increase in distributions paid to partners. Cash Flow - 2000 versus 1999 ---------------------------- Net cash provided by operating activities decreased for 2000 as compared to 1999, primarily due to an increase in the change in due from affiliate, receivables and other assets. This change is primarily due to the timing of the receipt of interest on debentures received from affiliate. Net cash provided by investing activities decreased for 2000 as compared to 1999, due to the decrease in proceeds from mortgage dispositions and a decrease in debenture proceeds received from affiliate. Net cash used in financing activities decreased for 2000 as compared to 1999 due to a decrease in distributions paid to partners as a result of decreases discussed above. 12 ITEM 7A. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Partnership's principal market risk is exposure to changes in interest rates in the U.S. Treasury market, which coupled with the related spread to treasury investors required for the Partnership's Insured Mortgages, will cause fluctuations in the market value of the Partnership's assets. The table below provides information about the Partnership's Insured Mortgages, all of which were entered into for purposes other than trading. The table presents anticipated principal and interest cash flows based upon the assumptions used in determining the fair value of these securities and the related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity.

These financial statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and the schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in 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. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Schedule IV-Mortgage Loans on Real Estate as of December 31, 2001 is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The information in this schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/Arthur Andersen LLP Vienna, Virginia March 4, 2002 23 AMERICAN INSURED MORTGAGE INVESTORS BALANCE SHEETS December 31, December 31, 2001 2000 ------------- ------------- ASSETS Investment in FHA-Insured Loans, at amortized cost, net of unamortized discount: Originated insured mortgages $ 4,806,675 $ 4,874,050 Acquired insured mortgages 7,621,126 7,723,048 ------------ ------------ 12,427,801 12,597,098 Investment in FHA-Insured Certificates, at fair value 9,727,346 11,258,675 Cash and cash equivalents 534,890 567,491 Receivables and other assets 212,451 203,781 Due from affiliate 1,235,104 1,230,180 ------------ ------------ Total assets $ 24,137,592 $ 25,857,225 ============ ============ LIABILITIES AND PARTNERS' EQUITY Distributions payable $ 514,940 $ 514,940 Accounts payable and accrued expenses 92,319 71,763 ------------ ------------ Total liabilities 607,259 586,703 ------------ ------------ Partners' equity: Limited partners' equity, 10,000,125 Units authorized, issued and outstanding 27,515,891 28,817,932 General partner's deficit (5,297,038) (5,258,151) Accumulated other comprehensive income 1,311,480 1,710,741 ------------ ------------ Total partners' equity 23,530,333 25,270,522 ------------ ------------ Total liabilities and partners' equity $ 24,137,592 $ 25,857,225 ============ ============ The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 24 AMERICAN INSURED MORTGAGE INVESTORS STATEMENTS OF INCOME AND COMPREHENSIVE INCOME For the years ended December 31, 2001 2000 1999 ---------- ---------- ---------- Income: Mortgage investment income $2,110,712 $2,264,907 $2,325,545 Interest and other income 104,224 13,933 28,431 ---------- ---------- ---------- 2,214,936 2,278,840 2,353,976 ---------- ---------- ---------- Expenses: Asset management fee to related parties 224,202 237,264 240,997 General and administrative 226,255 219,282 255,145 ---------- ---------- ---------- 450,457 456,546 496,142 ---------- ---------- ---------- Earnings before mortgage dispositions 1,764,479 1,822,294 1,857,834 Gains on mortgage dispositions 190,206 188,455 67,150 ---------- ---------- ---------- Net earnings $1,954,685 $2,010,749 $1,924,984 ========== ========== ========== Other comprehensive loss (399,261) (102,162) (545,617) ---------- ---------- ---------- Comprehensive income $1,555,424 $1,908,587 $1,379,367 ========== ========== ========== Net earnings allocated to: Limited partners -

ORGANIZATION American Insured Mortgage Investors (the "Partnership") was formed under the Uniform Limited Partnership Act in the state of California on July 12, 1983. CRIIMI, Inc. (the "General Partner") holds a partnership interest of 2.9% and is a wholly owned subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE Inc. ("CRIIMI MAE"). AIM Acquisition Partners L.P. (the "Advisor") serves as the advisor to the Partnership. The general partner of the Advisor is AIM Acquisition Corporation ("AIM Acquisition") and the limited partners include, but are not limited to, AIM Acquisition, The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P., Sun America Investments, Inc.(successor to Broad, Inc.) and CRI/AIM Investment, L.P., an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE. AIM Acquisition is a Delaware corporation that is primarily owned by Sun America Investments, Inc. and The Goldman Sachs Group, L.P. Under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor will render services to the Partnership, including but not limited to, the management of the Partnership's portfolio of mortgages and the disposition of the Partnership's mortgages. Such services will be subject to the review and ultimate authority of the General Partner. However, the General Partner is required to receive the consent of the Advisor prior to taking certain significant actions, including but not limited to the disposition of mortgages, any transaction or agreement with the General Partner, or its affiliates, or any material change as to policies regarding distributions or reserves of the Partnership. The Advisor is permitted to delegate the performance of services pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement"). The delegation of such services will not relieve the Advisor of its obligation to perform such services. CRIIMI MAE Services Limited Partnership ("CMSLP"), an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE, manages the Partnership's portfolio, pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The general partner of CMSLP is CMSLP Management Company, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CRIIMI MAE. Prior to the expiration of the Partnership's reinvestment period in November 1988, the Partnership was engaged in the business of originating mortgage loans ("Originated Insured Mortgages") and acquiring mortgage loans ("Acquired Insured Mortgages" and, together with Originated Insured Mortgages, referred to herein as "Insured Mortgages"). In accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement, the Partnership is no longer authorized to originate or acquire Insured Mortgages and, consequently, its primary objective is to manage its portfolio of mortgage investments, all of which are insured under Section 221(d)(4) or Section 231 of the National Housing Act. The partnership agreement states that the Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2008, unless previously terminated under the provisions of the partnership agreement. On October 5, 1998, CRIIMI MAE, the parent of the General Partner, and CRIIMI MAE Management, Inc., an affiliate of CRIIMI MAE and provider of personnel and administrative services to the Partnership, filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). On November 22, 2000, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland, in Greenbelt, Maryland (the "Bankruptcy Court") confirmed CRIIMI MAE's and CRIIMI MAE Management, Inc.'s reorganization plan. On April 17, 2001, CRIIMI MAE and CRIIMI MAE Management, Inc. emerged from bankruptcy. 28 AMERICAN INSURED MORTGAGE INVESTORS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Method of Accounting -------------------- The Partnership's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Investment in Insured Mortgages ------------------------------- The Partnership's investment in Insured Mortgages is comprised of FHA-insured mortgage loans ("FHA-Insured Loans") and participation certificates evidencing a 100% undivided beneficial interest in government insured multifamily mortgages issued or sold pursuant to programs of the Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") ("FHA-Insured Certificates"). The mortgages underlying the FHA-Insured Certificates and FHA-Insured Loans are non-recourse first liens on multifamily residential developments. Payment of principal and interest on FHA-Insured Certificates and FHA-Insured Loans is insured by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") pursuant to Title 2 of the National Housing Act. As of December 31, 2001, the weighted average remaining term of the Partnership's investments in FHA-Insured Certificates is approximately 21 years. However, the partnership agreement states that the Partnership will terminate in approximately 7 years, on December 31, 2008, unless previously terminated under the provisions of the partnership agreement. As the Partnership is anticipated to terminate prior to the weighted average remaining term of its FHA-Insured Certificates, the Partnership does not have the ability or intent, at this time, to hold these investments to maturity. Consequently, the General Partner believes that the Partnership's FHA-Insured Certificates should be included in the available for sale category. Although the Partnership's FHA-Insured Certificates are classified as available for sale for financial statement purposes, the General Partner does not intend to voluntarily sell these assets other than those which may be sold as a result of a default or those which are eligible to be put to FHA at the expiration of 20 years from the date of the final endorsement under Section 221 program of the National Housing Act of 1937, as discussed below. In connection with this classification, as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, all of the Partnership's investments in FHA-Insured Certificates are recorded at fair value, with the net unrealized gains and losses on these investments reported as other comprehensive income and as a separate component of partners' equity. Subsequent increases or decreases in the fair value of FHA-Insured Certificates classified as available for sale will be included as a separate component of partners' equity. Realized gains and losses on FHA-Insured Certificates classified as available for sale will continue to be reported in earnings. Most of the Insured Mortgages held by the Partnership apply to the Section 221 program of the National Housing Act of 1937, as amended (the "Section 221 program"). Under the Section 221 program a mortgagee has the right to assign a mortgage ("put") to FHA at the expiration of 20 years from the date of final endorsement if the mortgage is not in default at such time. Any mortgagee electing to assign a FHA-insured mortgage to FHA will receive, in exchange therefor, HUD debentures having a total face value equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the 29 FHA-insured mortgage plus accrued interest to the date of assignment. These HUD debentures will mature 10 years from the date of assignment and will bear interest at the "going Federal rate" at such date. This assignment procedure is applicable to an insured mortgage which had a firm or conditional FHA commitment for insurance on or before November 30, 1983. The Partnership anticipates that each eligible insured mortgage, for which a prepayment has not occurred and which has not been sold, will be assigned to FHA at the expiration of 20 years from the date of final endorsement. The Partnership, therefore, does not anticipate holding any eligible insured mortgage beyond the expiration of 20 years from final endorsement of that insured mortgage. The Partnership has initiated its request to put these mortgages to FHA as they become due. Once the servicer of a mortgage has filed an application for insurance benefits under Section 221, the Partnership will no longer receive the monthly principal and interest on the applicable mortgage. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, Investment in FHA-Insured Loans is recorded at amortized cost. The amortized cost of FHA-Insured Certificates and FHA-Insured Loans is adjusted for amortization of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included in mortgage investment income. Gains from dispositions of mortgage investments are recognized upon the receipt of cash or debentures. Losses on dispositions of mortgage investments are recognized when it becomes probable a mortgage will be disposed of and that the disposition will result in a loss. In the case of Originated Insured Mortgages fully insured by HUD, the Partnership's maximum exposure for purposes of determining the loan losses would generally be an assignment fee charged by HUD representing approximately 1% of the unpaid principal balance of the Originated Insured Mortgage at the date of default, plus the unamortized balance of acquisition fees and closing costs paid in connection with the acquisition of the Originated Insured Mortgage and the loss of 30 days accrued interest. Due from Affiliate ------------------ From time to time, the Partnership assigns defaulted loans to HUD in order to collect the amount of delinquent principal and interest. In addition, mortgages are assigned to HUD under the Section 221 program, as discussed above. HUD determines if the claim will be settled in cash or by the issuance of debentures. Debentures are obligations of the mortgage insurance funds and are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States. The term of the debentures are usually more than 9 years and the rate is set based upon the rate in effect at the commitment date to provide insurance or at the final endorsement date, whichever is greater. The Partnership classifies its portion of investment in FHA debenture as available for sale debt securities with changes in fair value recorded as an adjustment to equity and other comprehensive income. The Partnership's investment in FHA debenture is included on the balance sheet in Due from affiliate, as discussed in Note 7. Cash and Cash Equivalents ------------------------- Cash and cash equivalents consist of time and demand deposits with original maturities of three months or less. Income Taxes ------------ No provision has been made for Federal, state or local income taxes in the accompanying statements of income and comprehensive income since they are the responsibility of the Unitholders. 30 Statements of Cash Flows ------------------------ No cash payments were made for interest expense during the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999. Since the statements of cash flows are intended to reflect only cash receipt and cash payment activity, the statements of cash flows do not reflect operating activities that affect recognized assets and liabilities while not resulting in cash receipts or cash payments. 3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following estimated fair values of the Partnership's financial instruments are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which define fair value as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. These estimated fair values, however, do not represent the liquidation value or the market value of the Partnership.

The Partnership used a discounted cash flow methodology to estimate the fair value; the cash flows were discounted using a discount rate that, in the Partnership's view, was commensurate with the market's perception of risk and value. The Partnership used a variety of sources to determine its discount rate including: (i) institutionally-available research reports, 31 and (ii) communications with dealers and active insured mortgage security investors regarding the valuation of comparable securities. The fair value of the FHA Debenture is based upon the prices of other comparable securities that trade in the market. The fair value is equal to its face value upon redemption of the debenture. Cash and cash equivalents ------------------------- The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. 4. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income includes net earnings as currently reported by the Partnership adjusted for other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income for the Partnership consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses related to the Partnership's mortgages and debenture accounted for as available for sale. The table below breaks out other comprehensive income for the periods presented into the following two categories: (1) the change to unrealized gains and losses that relate to mortgages which were disposed of during the period with the resulting realized gain or loss reflected in net earnings (reclassification adjustments) and (2) the change in the unrealized gain or loss related to those investments that were not disposed of during the period. 2001 2000 1999 ---- ---- ---- Reclassification adjustment for gains included in net income $ (177,352) $ (161,707) $ (67,656) Unrealized holding gains (losses) arising during the period (221,909) 59,545 (477,961) ---------- ---------- ---------- Net adjustment to unrealized losses $ (399,261) $ (102,162) $ (545,617) ========== ========== ========== 5.

As of March 1, 2002, all of the Partnership's FHA-Insured Certificates were current with respect to the payment of principal and interest, except for the mortgage on Westbrook Apartments, which is delinquent with respect to the February 2002 payment of principal and interest. 7. DUE FROM AFFILIATE The servicer of the mortgage on Fox Run Apartments filed an application for insurance benefits under the Section 221 program of the National Housing Act of 1937 in May 2000. In December 2000, HUD issued assignment proceeds in the form of a 7.125% debenture for this mortgage. The mortgage was owned 50% by AIM 84 and 50% by an affiliate of the Partnership, American Insured Mortgage Investors - Series 85, L.P. ("AIM 85"). The debenture, with a face value of $2,385,233, was issued to AIM 85 with interest payable semi-annually on January 1 and July 1. The Partnership recognized a gain of approximately $188,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 related to this assignment. The net proceeds and accrued interest are included on the Balance Sheet in Due from affiliate as of December 31, 2001. In January 2002, the debenture was liquidated at par value. The Partnership received approximately $1.2 million for their share of the debenture proceeds, including interest of approximately $42,000. A distribution of approximately $0.11 per Unit related to the receipt of these proceeds is expected to be declared in March 2002. 33 AMERICAN INSURED MORTGAGE INVESTORS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 8.

(2) The Advisor, pursuant to the partnership agreement, effective October 1, 1991, is entitled to an Asset Management Fee equal to 0.95% of Total Invested Assets (as defined in the partnership agreement). CMSLP is entitled to a fee equal to 0.28% of Total Invested Assets from the Advisor's Asset Management Fee. Of the amounts paid to the Advisor, CMSLP earned a fee equal to $66,078, $69,924, and $71,024 for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The general partner and limited partner of CMSLP are wholly owned subsidiaries of CRIIMI MAE. 34 9. DISTRIBUTIONS TO UNITHOLDERS The distributions paid or accrued to Unitholders on a per Unit basis for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 are as follows: Quarter Ended 2001 2000 1999 ------------- ---- ---- ---- March 31 $ 0.05 $ 0.05 $ 0.17(2) June 30 0.05 0.05 0.05 September 30 0.17(1) 0.05 0.05 December 31 0.05 0.05 0.09(3) ------ ------ ------ $ 0.32 $ 0.20 $ 0.36 ====== ====== ====== (1) This amount includes approximately $0.12 per Unit representing net proceeds from the prepayment of the mortgage on Berryhill Apartments. (2) This amount includes approximately $0.12 per Unit due to redemption of debentures received from the assignment of the mortgage on Portervillage I Apartments. This amount was received from an affiliate of the Partnership, AIM 85. The debenture was issued to AIM 85, since the mortgage on Portervillage I Apartments was owned 50% by the Partnership and 50% by AIM 85. (3) This amount includes approximately $0.04 per Unit representing net proceeds from prepayment of the mortgage on Lakeside Apartments. The basis for paying distributions to Unitholders is net proceeds from mortgage dispositions, if any, and cash flow from operations, which includes regular interest income and principal from Insured Mortgages. Although Insured Mortgages yield a fixed monthly mortgage payment once purchased, the cash distributions paid to the Unitholders will vary during each year due to (1) the fluctuating yields in the short-term money market where the monthly mortgage payment receipts are temporarily invested prior to the payment of quarterly distributions, (2) the reduction in the asset base resulting from monthly mortgage payments received or mortgage dispositions, (3) variations in the cash flow attributable to the delinquency or default of Insured Mortgages and professional fees and foreclosure costs incurred in connection with those Insured Mortgages and (4) variations in the Partnership's operating expenses. 10. PARTNERS' EQUITY Depositary Units representing economic rights in limited partnership interests ("Units") were issued at a stated value of $20. A total of 10,000,000 Units were issued for an aggregate capital contribution of $200,000,000. In addition, the initial limited partner contributed $2,500 to the capital of the Partnership and received 125 Units in exchange therefor. 35 11.

Any mortgagee electing to assign an FHA-insured mortgage to FHA will receive, in exchange therefor, HUD debentures having a total face value equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the FHA-insured mortgage plus accrued interest to the date of assignment. These HUD debentures will mature 10 years from the date of assignment and will bear interest at the "going Federal rate" at such date. This assignment procedure is applicable to an insured mortgage which had a firm or conditional FHA commitment for insurance on or before November 30, 1983. The Partnership anticipates that each eligible insured mortgage, for which a prepayment has not occurred and which has not been sold, will be assigned to FHA at the expiration of 20 years from the date of final endorsement. The Partnership, therefore, does not anticipate holding any eligible insured mortgage beyond the expiration of 20 years from final endorsement of that insured mortgage. The Partnership has initiated its request to put these mortgages to FHA as they become due. (2) Inclusive of closing costs and acquisition fees. (3) Prepayment of these insured mortgages would be based upon the unpaid principal balance at the time of prepayment. (4) These amounts represent the Partnership's 50% interest in these insured mortgages. The remaining 50% interest was acquired by American Insured Mortgage Investors - Series 85, L.P. ("AIM 85"). (5) In addition, the servicer of the insured mortgages (primarily unaffiliated third parties) is entitled to receive compensation for certain services rendered in an amount up to ten basis points (0.10%) of the unpaid principal balance of the insured mortgages. (6) The mortgages underlying the Partnership's investment in FHA-Insured Certificates and FHA-Insured Loans are non-recourse first liens on multifamily residential developments. (7) Principal and interest are payable at level amounts over the life of the Insured Mortgages. (8) A reconciliation of the carrying value of Insured Mortgages, for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, is as follows: 2001 2000 ---- ---- Beginning balance $23,855,773 $25,219,376 Gain on mortgage dispositions 190,206 188,455 Proceeds from disposition of mortgages (1,184,199) (1,181,623)(a) Principal receipts on Insured Mortgages (295,445) (280,200) Adjustment to unrealized gains on investment in Insured Mortgages (411,188) (90,235) ----------- ----------- Ending balance $22,155,147 $23,855,773 =========== =========== (a) This amount represents non-cash proceeds of $1,192,617 (as reflected on the Statements of Cash Flows) less $10,994 of accrued interest income. (9) The tax basis of the Insured Mortgages was approximately $19.6 million and $20.9 million as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
