Organization

1. ORGANIZATION:

 

The Partnership was formed on November 20, 1987, pursuant to the Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Wisconsin. The initial capital, contributed during 1987, consisted of $300, representing aggregate capital contributions of $200 by the former general partners and $100 by the initial limited partner. A subsequent offering of limited partnership interests closed on February 22, 1990, with 46,280.3 limited partnership interests having been sold in that offering, resulting in total proceeds to the Partnership, net of underwriting compensation and other offering costs, of $39,358,468.

 

The Partnership is currently engaged in the business of owning and operating its investment portfolio of commercial real estate properties (each a “Property”, and collectively, the “Properties”). The Properties are leased on a triple net basis primarily to, and operated by, franchisors or franchisees of national, regional, and local retail chains under primarily long-term leases. The lessees are operators of fast food, family style, and casual/theme restaurants. As of June 30, 2020, the Partnership owned 10 Properties, which are located in a total of three states.

 

The Limited Partnership Agreement, as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Partnership Agreement”), stipulates that the Partnership is scheduled to be dissolved on November 30, 2020, or earlier upon the prior occurrence of any of the following events: (a) the disposition of all its Properties; (b) the written determination by the General Partner, that the Partnership’s assets may constitute “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA; (c) the agreement of limited partners owning a majority of the outstanding limited partner interests to dissolve the Partnership; or (d) the dissolution, bankruptcy, death, withdrawal, or incapacity of the last remaining General Partner, unless an additional General Partner is elected by a majority of the limited partners. During the second and third quarters of the nine odd numbered years from 2001 through 2017, consent solicitations were circulated to the Partnership’s limited partners which, if approved by the limited partners, would have authorized the General Partner to initiate the potential sale of all of the Properties and the dissolution of the Partnership (each a “Consent”). Limited partners owning a majority of the outstanding limited partnership interests did not vote in favor of any of the Consents. Therefore, the Partnership continues to operate as a going concern.

 

During the third quarter of 2020, the Partnership will circulate a consent solicitation to the Partnership’s limited partners which, if approved by the limited partners, will extend the term of the Partnership through November 30, 2030. An 8-k will be filed with the results of the consent solicitation in mid to late September 2020.
