EX-99 2 EXHIBIT 11 HIGH RIVER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP 100 South Bedford Road Mount Kisco, NY 10549 August 17, 1995 McNeil Partners, L.P. 13760 Noel Road, Suite 700, LB70 Dallas, Texas 75240 Ladies and Gentleman: This letter is sent to you in your capacity as general partner (the "General Partner") of the following limited partnerships: McNeil Pacific Investors Fund 1972 ("Pacific 1972"), McNeil Real Estate Fund V, Ltd. ("McNeil V"), McNeil Real Estate Fund IX, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund X, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XI, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XIV, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XV, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XX, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXIV, L.P. and McNeil Real Estate Fund XXV, L.P. (collectively, the "Partnerships" and each a "Partnership"). Reference is made to the separate Offers to Purchase Units of Limited Partnership Interest, each dated August 3, 1995 (as thereafter amended), commenced by the undersigned (the "Purchaser") in respect of each of the Partnerships (as supplemented or amended, collectively, the "Offers to Purchase"). Reference is further made to the separate Assignments of Partnership Interest associated with each of the Offers to Purchase, copies of which have been annexed hereto as Exhibits "A" through "J" (collectively, the "Assignments of Partnership Interest" and together with the Offers to Purchase and all related documentation, the "Offers"). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Offers. The purpose of this letter is to confirm that certain ministerial actions and activities necessary to complete a transfer to the Purchaser of Units to be purchased pursuant to the Offers will be taken and to assure the cooperation of the General Partner in the transfer process so that each of the limited partner of each Partnership (the "Limited Partners") who may desire to tender and sell Units to the Purchaser will have the opportunity to do so. Please execute this letter in the space provided below so as to reflect your agreement as the general partner of each Partnership and the agreement of each Partnership, as follows: 1. The form of the Assignments of Partnership Interest each constitute a written instrument of transfer and assignment satisfactory to the General Partner (and not in contravention of the provisions of any Partnership Agreement) and, upon presentation thereof in duly executed and appropriately completed form (pursuant to the Instructions contained in such Assignments of Partnership Interest) shall be and be deemed to be sufficient to: (a) transfer and assign each Unit tendered (the "Tendered Units") pursuant to each of such Assignments of Partnership Interest to the Purchaser; and (b) cause the Partnership to admit the Purchaser as a substitute Limited Partner in respect of the Tendered Units. 2. The form of transfer agreement (the "Transfer Agreement") annexed hereto as Exhibit "K" is satisfactory to the General Partner and, when appropriately executed and completed by the Purchaser or its designee, shall be and be deemed to be sufficient to satisfy any requirement in any Partnership Agreement with respect to the submission of a transfer application or other written instrument of acceptance to the same effect, or any acceptance and/or adoption of the provisions of any Partnership Agreement (including, without limitation, any power of attorney provisions). 3. The form of opinion of counsel annexed hereto as Exhibit "L" is satisfactory to the General Partner and when executed and delivered by counsel contemplated therein will satisfy the provisions of Section 12.6 of the Partnership Agreement for each of the following eight partnerships: McNeil Real Estate Fund IX; X; XI; XIV; XV; XX; XXIV and XXV (the "Specified Partnership Agreements"). 4. The form of the Statements of Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificate(s) ("Statements") contained in each of the Assignments of Partnership Interest are satisfactory to the General Partner and, upon presentation thereof duly executed by an owner of Units and appropriately completed (pursuant to the Instructions contained in the Assignments of Partnership Interest) shall: (a) be and be deemed effective to cause the Partnership to issue a new Certificate or Certificates of Limited Partnership Interest to replace the Certificate or Certificates which are claimed as destroyed, lost or stolen in the Statements, which will then be and be deemed to be included in the tender of Units to the Purchaser as applicable; and (b) shall not impair the effectiveness of the associated Assignments of Partnership Interest in any way. 5. The General Partner shall take all action as is necessary to register the transfer of Units to the Purchaser and to complete the admission of the Purchaser to the Partnerships as a substitute Limited Partner (including any amendment of the Partnership Agreements, if applicable) as promptly as practicable following the submission by the Purchaser to the General Partner of the documentation referred to in paragraphs 1 through 4 above and the Certificates associated with the Tendered Units (or the Statements, where appropriate) (without regard to the next regular admission date), and the General Partner will provide and grant any consent or approval relating thereto required under the applicable Partnership Agreements. Such transfer and substitution shall be recorded on the books and records of the appropriate Partnerships and registered on the Unit register or other records of such Partnership. Upon such admission, the General Partner will provide a letter to the Purchaser acknowledging the admission of the Purchaser to each Partnership as a substitute Limited Partner and specifying the number of Units held by the Purchaser as reflected on the books and records and register of the Partnership and issue to the Purchaser Certificates representing the same. 6. There are no: (i) procedures or requirements which would be required to be performed or satisfied; (ii) documents required to be delivered by the Purchaser or other person; or (iii) consents, approvals or authorizations of any governmental or other authority required, for the Purchaser to complete or obtain the completion of any transfer of Units or registration thereof by or with respect to any Partnership or be admitted as a substitute Limited Partner of each of the Partnerships, other than the delivery of documents contemplated in paragraph 5 above. All necessary consents and approvals of all transfer agents for any of the Partnerships is set forth below. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1 of the Partnership Agreement for Pacific 1972, presentment and delivery of a holder's copy of the Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership (as referred to in such Partnership Agreement) is not required for any tender, sale or transfer of Units or the completion of the matters contemplated in paragraph 5 above. Each of the Partnerships issues certificates evidencing ownership of Units therein. The General Partner has not, and prior to the completion of actions contemplated in paragraph 5 above, will not, issue new or replacement certificates pursuant to Sections 12.1(b) or (c) of the Specified Partnership Agreement. 7. Upon the expiration of the Offers, each Partnership will furnish to the Purchaser such information as it requests to: (i) verify that the persons purporting to transfer Units to the Purchaser pursuant to the Offers are in fact the owners of such Units as reflected on the Partnership's books and records or register; (ii) confirm the number of Units owned (and/or being tendered) by any person; and (iii) make any determination under the applicable Partnership Agreements regarding numbers of Units required to be retained by any person tendering only a portion of its Units. In addition, with respect to McNeil V, at the request of the Purchaser, the General Partner will provide to the Purchaser such information as is necessary to ascertain the number of Units of such Partnership that may be purchased without violation of Section 12.3 thereof as it relates to Section 708 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended. 8. The only fees which will be charged in connection with the transfer of Units pursuant to the Offers including, without limitation, transfer fees, assignment fees, fees in connection with the issuance of new Certificates, fees for taxes or other governmental charges and fees and expenses of transfer agents will be a fee of $75.00 ($50.00 in the case of Pacific 1972) for each transfer of Units by a transferee to the Purchaser (regardless of the number of Units involved in such transfer); provided that if a transferee is an owner of Units in more than one Partnership then the $75.00 fee would apply separately to each transfer of Units (regardless of the number of Units involved in such transfer) with respect to each Partnership. 9. The General Partner agrees to, and to cause the Partnership and its agents to, execute, acknowledge, deliver, file and record such documents, certificates, and instruments and to do all such other acts and things, as may be required, necessary or advisable, to carry out the full intents and purposes of this letter and to facilitate the completion of the transactions and activities contemplated herein. In this regard, the General Partner will, among other things, cooperate with the Purchaser so as to enable the Purchaser to purchase in the Offer, Units tendered by any person who has submitted to a Partnership documents necessary to acquire Units purchased by such person, but who has not yet been admitted as a limited partner. Given the exigencies of the Offers we request that you respond to this letter on or before August 21, 1995.
