CENTURY PROPERTIES FUND XIX
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note A - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Century
Properties Fund XIX (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of
Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The general partner of the Partnership is Fox Partners II,
a California general partnership. The general partners of Fox Partners II are
Fox Capital Management Corporation ("FCMC" or the "Managing General Partner"), a
California corporation, Fox Realty Investors ("FRI"), a California general
partnership, and Fox Partners 83, a California general partnership. The Managing
General Partner is a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company
("AIMCO"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust. In the opinion of the
Managing General Partner, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2000.
Principles of Consolidation
The Registrant's financial statements include the accounts of Misty Woods CPF
19, LLC, a limited liability company in which the Registrant ultimately owns a
100% economic interest. All significant inter-entity transactions have been
eliminated.
Segment Reporting
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131, "Disclosure about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" established standards for the
way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments
in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report
selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. It
also established standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. As defined in SFAS No. 131, the
Partnership has only one reportable segment. Moreover, due to the very nature of
the Partnership's operations, the Managing General Partner believes that
segment-based disclosures will not result in a more meaningful presentation than
the consolidated financial statements as presently presented.
Note B - Casualty Gain
In February 2001, one of the Partnership's investment properties, McMillan Place
Apartments, incurred damages to its buildings as a result of a hail storm. As a
result of the damage, approximately $142,000 of fixed assets and approximately
$75,000 of accumulated depreciation were written off resulting in a net write
off of approximately $67,000. The property received approximately $223,000 in
proceeds from the insurance company to repair the damaged units. For financial
statement purposes, a casualty gain of approximately $156,000 was recognized as
a result of the difference between the proceeds received and the net book value
of the buildings which were damaged.
Note C - Refinancing of Mortgage Note Payable
On August 31, 2001 the Partnership refinanced the mortgage note payable for
Sunrunner Apartments. The refinancing of Sunrunner Apartments replaced mortgage
indebtedness of approximately $3,250,000 with a new mortgage of $4,650,000. The
mortgage was refinanced at a rate of 7.06% compared to the prior rate of 7.33%.
Payments of approximately $36,000 are due on the first day of each month until
the note matures in September 2021. At the closing, a repair escrow of $125,000
was established and is held by the lender. AIMCO LP, an affiliate of the
Managing General Partner, has signed as guarantor of this mortgage note payable.
Capitalized loan costs incurred on the refinancing were approximately $185,000.
The Partnership wrote off unamortized loan costs resulting in an extraordinary
loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $39,000.
Note D - Transactions with Affiliated Parties
The Registrant has no employees and is dependent on the Managing General Partner
and its affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership
activities. The Partnership Agreement provides for (i) certain payments to
affiliates for services and (ii) reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by
affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.
The following amounts to the Managing General Partner and its affiliates were
incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000:
2001 2000
(in thousands)
Property management fees (included in operating expenses) $684 $666
Reimbursement for services of affiliates (included in
general and administrative and operating expenses
and investment properties) 125 134
Partnership management fee (included in general partner
distributions) 277 359
Loan costs (included in other assets) 47 --
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, affiliates of the
Managing General Partner were entitled to receive 5% of gross receipts from all
of the Registrant's properties as compensation for providing property management
services. The Registrant paid to such affiliates approximately $684,000 and
$666,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
An affiliate of the Managing General Partner received reimbursement of
accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $125,000 and
$134,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, for managing the affairs of the
Partnership, the general partner is entitled to receive a Partnership management
fee equal to 10% of the Partnership's adjusted cash from operations as
distributed. Approximately $277,000 and $359,000 in Partnership management fees
were paid along with the distributions from operations which were made during
the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The Partnership paid an affiliate of the Managing General Partner approximately
$47,000 for loan costs associated with the refinancing of Sunrunner Apartments
(see "Note C") which are capitalized and included in other assets on the
consolidated balance sheet.
An affiliate of the Managing General Partner has made available to the
Partnership a credit line of up to $150,000 per property owned by the
Partnership. The Partnership has no outstanding amounts due under this line of
credit. Based on present plans, the Managing General Partner does not anticipate
the need to borrow in the near future. Other than cash and cash equivalents, the
line of credit is the Partnership's only unused source of liquidity.
In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the
Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 49,988.66 limited partnership units
in the Partnership representing 55.98% of the outstanding units at September 30,
2001. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by
AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will
acquire additional limited partnership interests in the Partnership for cash or
in exchange for units in the operating partnership of AIMCO either through
private purchases or tender offers. Under the Partnership Agreement, unitholders
holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a
variety of matters, which would include without limitation, voting on certain
amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the Managing
General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 55.98% of the outstanding
units, AIMCO is in a position to influence all voting decisions with respect to
the Registrant. When voting on matters, AIMCO would in all likelihood vote the
Units it acquired in a manner favorable to the interest of the Managing General
Partner because of its affiliation with the Managing General Partner. However,
IPLP, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, is required to vote
25,228.66 of its Units: (i) against any proposal to increase the fees and other
compensation payable by the Partnership to the Managing General Partner and any
of its affiliates; and (ii) on all other matters submitted by it or its
affiliates, in proportion to the votes cast by non tendering unit holders.
Except for the foregoing, no other limitations are imposed on IPLP's or AIMCO's
right to vote its Units.
Note E - Distribution
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership distributed
approximately $2,769,000 (approximately $2,442,000 to the limited partners,
$27.35 per limited partnership unit) from operations. Also during the nine
months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership distributed approximately
$1,095,000 (approximately $1,073,000 to the limited partners, $12.02 per limited
partnership unit) from the refinancing proceeds of Sunrunner Apartments. During
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership distributed
approximately $3,591,000 (approximately $3,167,000 to the limited partners or
$35.47 per limited partnership unit) from operations.
Note F - Legal Proceedings
In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership commenced an action entitled Rosalie Nuanes, et al. v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. (the "Nuanes action") in the Superior Court of the
State of California for the County of San Mateo. The plaintiffs named as
defendants, among others, the Partnership, its Managing General Partner and
several of their affiliated partnerships and corporate entities. The action
purports to assert claims on behalf of a class of limited partners and
derivatively on behalf of a number of limited partnerships (including the
Partnership) which are named as nominal defendants, challenging, among other
things, the acquisition of interests in certain general partner entities by
Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") and entities which were, at one
time, affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers by the Insignia affiliates to
acquire limited partnership units; management of the partnerships by the
Insignia affiliates; and the series of transactions which closed on October 1,
1998 and February 26, 1999 whereby Insignia and Insignia Properties Trust,
respectively, were merged into AIMCO. The plaintiffs seek monetary damages and
equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership. On June 25,
1998, the Managing General Partner filed a motion seeking dismissal of the
action. In lieu of responding to the motion, the plaintiffs filed an amended
complaint. The Managing General Partner filed demurrers to the amended complaint
which were heard February 1999.
Pending the ruling on such demurrers, settlement negotiations commenced. On
November 2, 1999, the parties executed and filed a Stipulation of Settlement,
settling claims, subject to court approval, on behalf of the Partnership and all
limited partners who owned units as of November 3, 1999. Preliminary approval of
the settlement was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court, at which time
the Court set a final approval hearing for December 10, 1999. Prior to the
December 10, 1999 hearing, the Court received various objections to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the alleged lack of authority of prior lead counsel to enter the settlement. On
December 14, 1999, the Managing General Partner and its affiliates terminated
the proposed settlement. In February 2000, counsel for some of the named
plaintiffs filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who
negotiated the settlement. On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order
disqualifying them from the case and an appeal was taken from the order on
October 5, 2000. On December 4, 2000, the Court appointed the law firm of Lieff
Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein LLP as new lead counsel for plaintiffs and the
putative class. Plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint on January 19, 2001.
On March 2, 2001, the Managing General Partner and its affiliates filed a
demurrer to the third amended complaint. On May 14, 2001, the Court heard the
demurrer to the third amended complaint. On July 10, 2001, the Court issued an
order sustaining defendants' demurrer on certain grounds. On July 20, 2001,
plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration of the Court's July 10, 2001 order
granting in part and denying in part defendants' demurrer. On September 7, 2001,
plaintiffs filed a fourth amended class and derivative action complaint. On
September 12, 2001, the Court denied plaintiffs' motion for reconsideration. On
October 5, 2001, the Managing General Partner and affiliated defendants filed a
demurrer to the fourth amended complaint, which, together with a demurrer filed
by other defendants, is currently scheduled to be heard on November 15, 2001.
The Court has set the matter for trial in January 2003.
During the third quarter of 2001, a complaint (the "Heller action") was filed
against the same defendants that are named in the Nuanes action, captioned
Heller v. Insignia Financial Group. On or about August 6, 2001, plaintiffs filed
a first amended complaint. The first amended complaint in the Heller action is
brought as a purported derivative action, and asserts claims for among other
things breach of fiduciary duty; unfair competition; conversion, unjust
enrichment; and judicial dissolution. Plaintiffs in the Nuanes action filed a
motion to consolidate the Heller action with the Nuanes action and stated that
the Heller action was filed in order to preserve the derivative claims that were
dismissed without leave to amend in the Nuanes action by the Court order dated
July 10, 2001. On October 5, 2001, the Managing General Partner and affiliated
defendants moved to strike the first amended complaint in its entirety for
violating the Court's July 10, 2001 order granting in part and denying in part
defendants' demurrer in the Nuanes action, or alternatively, to strike certain
portions of the complaint based on the statute of limitations. Other defendants
in the action demurred to the fourth amended complaint, and, alternatively,
moved to strike the complaint. The matters are currently scheduled to be heard
on November 15, 2001.
The Managing General Partner does not anticipate that any costs, whether legal
or settlement costs, associated with these cases will be material to the
Partnership's overall operations.
The Partnership is unaware of any other pending or outstanding litigation that
is not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB contain certain forward-looking
statements and involve risks and uncertainties (including changing market
conditions, competitive and regulatory matters, etc.) detailed in the
disclosures contained in this Form 10-QSB and the other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Registrant from time to time. The
discussion of the Registrant's business and results of operations, including
forward-looking statements pertaining to such matters, does not take into
account the effects of any changes to the Registrant's business and results of
operations. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those
projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors,
including those identified herein.
The Partnership's investment properties consist of eight apartment complexes.
The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000:
Average Occupancy
Property 2001 2000
Sunrunner Apartments 96% 97%
St. Petersburg, Florida
Misty Woods Apartments 91% 93%
Charlotte, North Carolina
McMillan Place Apartments 97% 96%
Dallas, Texas
Vinings Peak Apartments 92% 96%
Atlanta, Georgia
Wood Lake Apartments 91% 95%
Atlanta, Georgia
Plantation Crossing 88% 95%
Atlanta, Georgia
Greenspoint Apartments 93% 94%
Phoenix, Arizona
Sandspoint Apartments 95% 94%
Phoenix, Arizona
The decrease in occupancy at Vinings Peak Apartments, Wood Lake Apartments and
Plantation Crossing Apartments is due to the competitive market of the apartment
industry in the Atlanta area and the purchase of new homes by the apartments'
tenants. Additionally, the Managing General Partner attributes the decrease in
occupancy at Wood Lake Apartments and Plantation Crossing Apartments to numerous
evictions during the current year. Management is evicting tenants who are not
complying with the collection policy in an effort to improve the tenant base.
Results of Operations
The Partnership realized net income of approximately $90,000 and $1,032,000 for
the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 as compared to net
income of approximately $483,000 and $1,586,000 for the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 2000, respectively. The decrease in net income for
the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 is attributable to an
increase in total expenses and an extraordinary loss on early extinguishment of
debt. Excluding the extraordinary loss on early extinguishment of debt, income
for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 was approximately
$129,000 and $1,071,000 as compared to approximately $483,000 and $1,586,000 for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000. The increase in total
expenses for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 is
primarily attributable to an increase in operating, depreciation, and general
and administrative expenses. The increase in operating expenses for the three
and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 is the result of an increase in
insurance premiums and an increase in property and advertising expenses at
several of the investment properties. Property expense increased for both
periods at several properties due to increased utility costs as a result of the
decrease in occupancy. Property expense also increased due to an increase in
employee salaries and related benefits at several of the Partnership's
investment properties. Advertising expense increased as a result of the effort
to increase occupancy at those investment properties that have experienced a
decline in occupancy. Depreciation expense increased for both periods due to the
addition of property improvements and replacements that were placed in service
during the past twelve months and are now being depreciated. Interest expense
increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 as a result of the
contingency for additional interest on McMillan Place Apartments as discussed
below.
The increase in general and administrative expense during the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2001, is primarily due to an increase in professional
fees and audit expenses partially offset by a decrease in legal expenses. Also
included in general and administrative expense at both September 30, 2001 and
2000 are costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with
investors and regulatory agencies.
Total revenues increased slightly for the nine months ended September 30, 2001
primarily due to a casualty gain as discussed below and an increase in other
income which were partially offset by a decrease in rental income. Other income
increased due to the collection of utility reimbursements, lease cancellation
fees and late charges being enforced at several of the properties. Rental income
decreased due to a decrease in occupancy and increased concessions at several
properties which were partially offset by an increase in average rental rates at
all investment properties. Total revenues decreased slightly for the three
months ended September 30, 2001 primarily due to a decrease in occupancy and an
increase in concessions at several properties.
In February 2001, one of the Partnership's investment properties, McMillan Place
Apartments, incurred damages to its buildings as a result of a hail storm. As a
result of the damage, approximately $142,000 of fixed assets and approximately
$75,000 of accumulated depreciation were written off resulting in a net write
off of approximately $67,000. The property received approximately $223,000 in
proceeds from the insurance company to repair the damaged units. For financial
statement purposes, a casualty gain of approximately $156,000 was recognized as
a result of the difference between the proceeds received and the net book value
of the buildings which were damaged.
As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General
Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to
assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy
levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of
this plan, the Managing General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from
the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and
maintaining a high overall occupancy level. However, due to changing market
conditions, which can result in the use of rental concessions and rental
reductions to offset softening market conditions, there is no guarantee that the
Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2001, the Registrant had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $1,326,000 as compared to approximately $1,412,000 at September
30, 2000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, cash and cash
equivalents decreased approximately $846,000 from the Registrant's year ended
December 31, 2000. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is due to
approximately $3,424,000 of cash used in financing activities and approximately
$1,326,000 of cash used in investing activities partially offset by
approximately $3,904,000 of cash provided by operating activities. Net cash used
in financing activities consisted of distributions to partners, repayment of
mortgage note payable, and to a lesser extent, payments of principal made on the
mortgages encumbering the Registrant's investment properties and payment of loan
costs which were partially offset by proceeds received from the refinancing of
Sunrunner Apartments. Net cash used in investing activities consisted of
property improvements and replacements and net deposits to restricted escrows
maintained by the mortgage lenders partially offset by insurance proceeds
received for a casualty as discussed above. The Partnership invests its working
capital reserves in interest bearing accounts.
An affiliate of the Managing General Partner has made available to the
Partnership a credit line of up to $150,000 per property owned by the
Partnership. The Partnership has no outstanding amounts due under this line of
credit. Based on present plans, the Managing General Partner does not anticipate
the need to borrow in the near future. Other than cash and cash equivalents, the
line of credit is the Partnership's only unused source of liquidity.
The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital
expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital
expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical
assets and other operating needs of the Registrant and to comply with Federal,
state, and local legal and regulatory requirements. Capital improvements planned
for each of the Registrant's properties are detailed below.
Sunrunner Apartments
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership completed
approximately $97,000 of budgeted and non-budgeted capital improvements
consisting primarily of roof replacements, exterior painting, and floor covering
and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from Partnership
reserves and operating cash flow. The Partnership has budgeted for, but is not
limited to, capital improvements of $130,000 at the property consisting
primarily of floor covering and appliance replacements, roof replacements,
contract painting, and air conditioning and water heater replacements.
Additional improvements may be considered and will depend on the physical
condition of the property as well as replacement reserves and anticipated cash
flow generated by the property.
Misty Woods Apartments
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership completed
approximately $113,000 of budgeted and non-budgeted capital improvements

decoration. These improvements were funded from Partnership reserves and
operating cash flow. The Partnership has budgeted for, but is not limited to,
capital improvements of $70,000 at the property consisting primarily of floor

improvements may be considered and will depend on the physical condition of the
property as well as replacement reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by
the property.

approximately $201,000 of budgeted and non-budgeted capital improvements
consisting primarily of swimming pool improvements, floor covering and appliance
replacements, interior decoration, other building improvements, and water heater
replacements. These improvements were funded from Partnership reserves,
operating cash flow and insurance proceeds. The Partnership has budgeted for,
but is not limited to, capital improvements of $124,000 at the property
consisting primarily of appliance and floor covering replacements, interior
decoration, and countertop and air conditioning replacements. Additional
improvements may be considered and will depend on the physical condition of the
property as well as replacement reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by
the property.
Vinings Peak Apartments
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership completed
approximately $279,000 of budgeted and non-budgeted capital improvements
consisting primarily of land improvements, structural improvements, other
building improvements, floor covering and appliance replacements, signage, air
conditioning upgrades, water heaters, and recreational facilities improvements.
These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership has
budgeted for, but is not limited to, capital improvements of $152,000 at the
property consisting primarily of floor covering and appliance replacements, and
interior decoration. Additional improvements may be considered and will depend
on the physical condition of the property as well as replacement reserves and
anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Wood Lake Apartments
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership completed
approximately $164,000 of budgeted and non-budgeted capital improvements
consisting primarily of land improvements, signage, other building improvements,
floor covering and appliance replacements, water heaters, roof replacement, and
plumbing improvements. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow.
The Partnership has budgeted for, but is not limited to, capital improvements of
$137,000 at the property consisting primarily of floor covering and appliance
replacements and other building improvements. Additional improvements may be
considered and will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as
replacement reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Plantation Crossing Apartments
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership completed
approximately $175,000 of budgeted and non-budgeted capital improvements
consisting primarily of other building improvements, structural improvements,
and floor covering and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded
from operating cash flow. The Partnership has budgeted for, but is not limited
to, capital improvements of $151,000 at the property consisting primarily of
floor covering and appliance replacements, wall coverings, and other building
improvements. Additional improvements may be considered and will depend on the
physical condition of the property as well as replacement reserves and
anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Greenspoint Apartments
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership completed
approximately $185,000 of capital improvements consisting primarily of
structural and plumbing improvements, floor covering and appliance replacements,
and parking lot enhancements. These improvements were funded from operating cash
flow. The Partnership has budgeted for, but is not limited to, capital
improvements of $238,000 at the property consisting primarily of floor covering
and appliance replacements, roof replacements, air conditioning unit
replacements, and plumbing improvements. Additional improvements may be
considered and will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as
replacement reserves and anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
Sands Point Apartments
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership completed
approximately $177,000 of budgeted and non-budgeted capital improvements
consisting primarily of structural improvements, air conditioning improvements,
plumbing enhancements, ground lighting enhancements, roof replacements, and
floor covering and appliance replacements. These improvements were funded from
operating cash flow. The Partnership has budgeted for, but is not limited to,
capital improvements of $172,000 at the property consisting primarily of floor
covering and appliance replacements, air conditioning unit replacements, roof
replacements, swimming pool improvements, plumbing improvements, and parking lot
resurfacing. Additional improvements may be considered and will depend on the
physical condition of the property as well as replacement reserves and
anticipated cash flow generated by the property.
The additional capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available
from operations or from Partnership reserves. To the extent that such budgeted
capital improvements are completed, the Registrant's distributable cash flow, if
any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term.
In connection with the January 29, 1998 modification of the terms of the
mortgages encumbering McMillan Place Apartments, the first mortgage requires
additional interest to be paid upon maturity at October 31, 2002 equal to 50% of
the increase in the appreciated fair market value of the property, which was
stipulated as $12,860,000 at the time of the restructuring. At December 31, 2000
and June 30, 2001, the Managing General Partner estimated that there had been an
increase in the fair market value of McMillan Place Apartments. A liability for
$250,000 was recorded at December 31, 2000 and is included in other liabilities.
An additional liability for $250,000 was recorded at June 30, 2001 and is
included in other liabilities and interest expense.
On August 31, 2001 the Partnership refinanced the mortgage note payable for
Sunrunner Apartments. The refinancing of Sunrunner Apartments replaced mortgage
indebtedness of approximately $3,250,000 with a new mortgage of $4,650,000. The
mortgage was refinanced at a rate of 7.06% compared to the prior rate of 7.33%.
Payments of approximately $36,000 are due on the first day of each month until
the note matures in September 2021. At the closing, a repair escrow of $125,000
was established and is held by the lender. AIMCO LP, an affiliate of the
Managing General Partner, has signed as guarantor of this mortgage note payable.
Capitalized loan costs incurred on the refinancing were approximately $185,000.
The Partnership wrote off unamortized loan costs resulting in an extraordinary
loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $39,000.
The Partnership's current assets are thought to be sufficient for any near-term
needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Partnership. The mortgage
indebtedness, excluding Sunrunner Apartments, of approximately $54,996,000, net
of discount, is amortized over varying periods with required balloon payments
ranging from October 2002 to January 2006. The mortgage note payable for
Sunrunner Apartments of approximately $4,650,000 is due to mature in September
2021 at which time it is expected to be completely amortized. The Managing
General Partner will attempt to refinance such indebtedness and/or sell the
properties prior to such maturity dates. If the properties cannot be refinanced
or sold for a sufficient amount, the Registrant will risk losing such properties
through foreclosure.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership distributed
approximately $2,769,000 (approximately $2,442,000 to the limited partners,
$27.35 per limited partnership unit) from operations. Also during the nine
months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership distributed approximately
$1,095,000 (approximately $1,073,000 to the limited partners, $12.02 per limited
partnership unit) from the refinancing proceeds of Sunrunner Apartments. During
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership distributed
approximately $3,591,000 (approximately $3,167,000 to the limited partners or
$35.47 per limited partnership unit) from operations. The Registrant is
prohibited from distributing cash from McMillan Place operations due to debt
restrictions. However, the Registrant can distribute cash from the remaining
properties' operations. The Partnership's distribution policy is reviewed on a
monthly basis. Future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash
generated from operations, the availability of cash reserves and the timing of
debt maturities, refinancings, and/or property sales. There can be no assurance,
however, that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations
after required capital expenditures to permit any further distributions to its
partners during the remainder of 2001 or subsequent periods.
In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the
Partnership, AIMCO and its affiliates owned 49,988.66 limited partnership units
in the Partnership representing 55.98% of the outstanding units at September 30,
2001. A number of these units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by
AIMCO or its affiliates. It is possible that AIMCO or its affiliates will
acquire additional limited partnership interests in the Partnership for cash or
in exchange for units in the operating partnership of AIMCO either through
private purchases or tender offers. Under the Partnership Agreement, unitholders
holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a
variety of matters, which would include without limitation, voting on certain
amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the Managing
General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 55.98% of the outstanding
units, AIMCO is in a position to influence all voting decisions with respect to
the Registrant. When voting on matters, AIMCO would in all likelihood vote the
Units it acquired in a manner favorable to the interest of the Managing General
Partner because of its affiliation with the Managing General Partner. However,
IPLP, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner, is required to vote
25,228.66 of its Units: (i) against any proposal to increase the fees and other
compensation payable by the Partnership to the Managing General Partner and any
of its affiliates; and (ii) on all other matters submitted by it or its
affiliates, in proportion to the votes cast by non tendering unit holders.
Except for the foregoing, no other limitations are imposed on IPLP's or AIMCO's
right to vote its Units.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In March 1998, several putative unit holders of limited partnership units of the
Partnership commenced an action entitled Rosalie Nuanes, et al. v. Insignia
Financial Group, Inc., et al. (the "Nuanes action") in the Superior Court of the
State of California for the County of San Mateo. The plaintiffs named as
defendants, among others, the Partnership, its Managing General Partner and
several of their affiliated partnerships and corporate entities. The action
purports to assert claims on behalf of a class of limited partners and
derivatively on behalf of a number of limited partnerships (including the
Partnership) which are named as nominal defendants, challenging, among other
things, the acquisition of interests in certain general partner entities by
Insignia Financial Group, Inc. ("Insignia") and entities which were, at one
time, affiliates of Insignia; past tender offers by the Insignia affiliates to
acquire limited partnership units; management of the partnerships by the
Insignia affiliates; and the series of transactions which closed on October 1,
1998 and February 26, 1999 whereby Insignia and Insignia Properties Trust,
respectively, were merged into AIMCO. The plaintiffs seek monetary damages and
equitable relief, including judicial dissolution of the Partnership. On June 25,
1998, the Managing General Partner filed a motion seeking dismissal of the
action. In lieu of responding to the motion, the plaintiffs filed an amended
complaint. The Managing General Partner filed demurrers to the amended complaint
which were heard February 1999.
Pending the ruling on such demurrers, settlement negotiations commenced. On
November 2, 1999, the parties executed and filed a Stipulation of Settlement,
settling claims, subject to court approval, on behalf of the Partnership and all
limited partners who owned units as of November 3, 1999. Preliminary approval of
the settlement was obtained on November 3, 1999 from the Court, at which time
the Court set a final approval hearing for December 10, 1999. Prior to the
December 10, 1999 hearing, the Court received various objections to the
settlement, including a challenge to the Court's preliminary approval based upon
the alleged lack of authority of prior lead counsel to enter the settlement. On
December 14, 1999, the Managing General Partner and its affiliates terminated
the proposed settlement. In February 2000, counsel for some of the named
plaintiffs filed a motion to disqualify plaintiff's lead and liaison counsel who
negotiated the settlement. On June 27, 2000, the Court entered an order
disqualifying them from the case and an appeal was taken from the order on
October 5, 2000. On December 4, 2000, the Court appointed the law firm of Lieff
Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein LLP as new lead counsel for plaintiffs and the
putative class. Plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint on January 19, 2001.
On March 2, 2001, the Managing General Partner and its affiliates filed a
demurrer to the third amended complaint. On May 14, 2001, the Court heard the
demurrer to the third amended complaint. On July 10, 2001, the Court issued an
order sustaining defendants' demurrer on certain grounds. On July 20, 2001,
plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration of the Court's July 10, 2001 order
granting in part and denying in part defendants' demurrer. On September 7, 2001,
plaintiffs filed a fourth amended class and derivative action complaint. On
September 12, 2001, the Court denied plaintiffs' motion for reconsideration. On
October 5, 2001, the Managing General Partner and affiliated defendants filed a
demurrer to the fourth amended complaint, which, together with a demurrer filed
by other defendants, is currently scheduled to be heard on November 15, 2001.
The Court has set the matter for trial in January 2003.
During the third quarter of 2001, a complaint (the "Heller action") was filed
against the same defendants that are named in the Nuanes action, captioned
Heller v. Insignia Financial Group. On or about August 6, 2001, plaintiffs filed
a first amended complaint. The first amended complaint in the Heller action is
brought as a purported derivative action, and asserts claims for among other
things breach of fiduciary duty; unfair competition; conversion, unjust
enrichment; and judicial dissolution. Plaintiffs in the Nuanes action filed a
motion to consolidate the Heller action with the Nuanes action and stated that
the Heller action was filed in order to preserve the derivative claims that were
dismissed without leave to amend in the Nuanes action by the Court order dated
July 10, 2001. On October 5, 2001, the Managing General Partner and affiliated
defendants moved to strike the first amended complaint in its entirety for
violating the Court's July 10, 2001 order granting in part and denying in part
defendants' demurrer in the Nuanes action, or alternatively, to strike certain
portions of the complaint based on the statute of limitations. Other defendants
in the action demurred to the fourth amended complaint, and, alternatively,
moved to strike the complaint. The matters are currently scheduled to be heard
on November 15, 2001.
The Managing General Partner does not anticipate that any costs, whether legal
or settlement costs, associated with these cases will be material to the
Partnership's overall operations.
