PART I
Item 1. Business
Background
DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”), is a limited partnership organized under the Wisconsin Uniform Limited Partnership Act pursuant to a Certificate of Limited Partnership dated as of November 20, 1987, and governed by a Limited Partnership Agreement, as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Partnership Agreement”). The Partnership is managed by its general partner, The Provo Group, Inc. (“TPG” or the “General Partner”). As of December 31, 2021, the Partnership had 1,081 limited partners owning an aggregate of 46,280.3 Limited Partnership Interests (the “Interests”).
The Partnership is engaged in the business of owning and operating its investment portfolio of commercial real estate properties (each a “Property” and collectively, the “Properties”). At December 31, 2021, the Partnership owned 9 Properties, located in a total of three states.
At December 31, 2021, eight of the nine Properties were (and continue to be) leased to three Wendy’s franchisees, with five of the Properties being leased to Wendgusta, LLC (“Wendgusta”), two of the Properties being leased to JAI Hospitality RG, LLC (“JAI Hospitality”), and one of the Properties being leased to Wendcharles I, LLC (“Wendcharles I”). Operating base rents from these eight leases during the year ended December 31, 2021 comprised approximately 90% of the total 2021 operating base rents. During the year ended December 31, 2021, additional percentage rents were also generated from these eight Wendy’s Properties and totaled $366,473. Additionally, those eight Properties exceeded 80% of the Partnership’s total Properties, both by historical asset value and number. Six of the Properties that are currently leased to Wendy’s franchisees feature lease expiration dates of December 31, 2040. The other two Properties that are currently leased to Wendy’s franchisees feature a lease expiration date of November 6, 2026.
See Properties under Item 2 below for the table of all Properties and lease expirations and a discussion of Properties with significant developments during the year ended December 31, 2021.
During the process of leasing the Properties, the Partnership may experience competition from owners and managers of other properties. As a result, in connection with negotiating tenant leases, along with recognizing market conditions, the General Partner may offer rental concessions, or other inducements, which may have an adverse impact on the results of the Partnership’s operations. The Partnership is also in competition with sellers of similar properties who from time to time attempt to locate suitable purchasers for its Properties.
The Partnership Agreement provides that the Partnership is scheduled to be dissolved on November 30, 2023, 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 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 previously by a majority of the limited partners.
During the 2020 consent solicitation process, the Limited Partners approved two separate amendments to the Partnership Agreement. The amendments served to: (i) extend the term of the Partnership by three (3) years to November 30, 2023, and (ii) permit the General Partner to effect distributions at times that it deems appropriate, but no less often than semi-annually. In addition, the Limited Partners approved a resolution granting the General Partner the authority to, at any time prior to November 30, 2023, sell all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets and then liquidate and dissolve the Partnership without further approval from the Limited Partners.

The Permanent Manager Agreement
The Permanent Manager Agreement (“PMA”) was entered into on February 8, 1993, between the Partnership, DiVall 1 (which was dissolved in December 1998), DiVall 3 (which was dissolved in December 2003), the now former general partners, Gary J. DiVall and Paul E. Magnuson, their controlled affiliates, and TPG, naming TPG as the Permanent Manager. The PMA contains provisions allowing TPG to submit to the PMA, election of TPG as General Partner, and the issue of acceptance of the resignations of the former general partners to a vote of the limited partners through a solicitation of written consents.
TPG, as the General Partner, has been operating and managing the affairs of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of the PMA and the Partnership Agreement since February 8, 1993.
Effective January 1, 2021, the PMA was renewed by the General Partner for a two-year period ending December 31, 2022. The PMA can be terminated earlier (a) by a vote at any time by a majority interest of the limited partners, (b) upon the dissolution and winding up of the Partnership, (c) upon the entry of an order of a court finding that TPG has engaged in fraud or other like misconduct or has shown itself to be incompetent in carrying out its duties under the Partnership Agreement, or (d) upon 60 days’ written notice from TPG to the limited partners of the Partnership.
Advisory Board
The concept of the Advisory Board was first introduced by TPG during the solicitation of written consents seeking to elect TPG as the General Partner. The first Advisory Board was established in October 1993. Among other functions, the three-person Advisory Board has the following rights and duties: to review operational policies and practices; to review extraordinary transactions; to review internal financial controls and practices; and to review the performance of the independent auditors of the Partnership. The Advisory Board’s powers are advisory only and the Advisory Board does not have the authority to direct management decisions or policies of the Partnership or remove the General Partner. The Advisory Board has full and free access to the Partnership’s books and records, and individual Advisory Board members have the right to communicate directly with the limited partners concerning Partnership business. Members of the Advisory Board are compensated $1,500 annually and $500 for each quarterly meeting attended.
The Advisory Board currently consists of limited partners of the Partnership: Jesse Small and Albert Kramer. For a brief description of each Advisory Board member, refer to Item 10, Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
The Partnership’s business, the ownership and lease of the Properties, is subject to a variety of risks attendant to the ownership and lease of commercial real property, including risks related to: (i) changes in general economic conditions both nationally and in the local markets where the Properties are located, (ii) changes in real estate conditions, including without limitation, decreases in valuations of real properties, increases in property taxes and lack of buyers should the Partnership want to dispose of a Property, (iv) lease-up risks, (v) ability of tenants to fulfill their obligations to the Partnership under existing leases, (vi) declines in sales for tenants whose leases include a percentage rent component, (vii) adverse changes to the restaurant market, (viii) entrance of competitors to the Partnership’s lessees in markets in which the Properties are located, (ix) inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of existing leases, (x) the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flows, (xi) the Partnership’s ability to realize value for Limited Partners upon disposition of the Properties, (xii) adverse effects on our Properties and tenants caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and (xiii) various other factors.
In addition to the general risks identified above, the Partnership is also subject to various cyber security risks, including those generally described below.
Our business operations could be disrupted if our information technology systems fail to perform adequately or are breached.
Information technology serves an important role in the efficient and effective operation of our business. We rely on information technology networks and systems, including the internet, to process, transmit, and store electronic information to manage a variety of business processes and to comply with regulatory, legal, and tax requirements. Our information technology systems and infrastructure are critical to effectively manage our key business processes including finance, administration and other business processes. These technologies enable internal and external communication among our locations, supplies, customers, and others and include the receipt and storage of personal information about our investors and proprietary business information. Our information technology systems, some of which are dependent on services provided by third parties, may be vulnerable to damage, interruption, or shutdown due to any number of causes such as catastrophic events, natural disasters, fires, power outages, systems failures, telecommunications failures, security breaches, computer viruses, hackers, and other causes. Increased cyber-security threats pose a potential risk to the security and viability of our information technology systems, as well as the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the data stored on those systems. The failure of our information technology systems to perform as we anticipate could disrupt our business and result in transaction errors, processing inefficiencies, data loss, legal claims or proceedings, regulatory penalties, and the loss of sales and customers. Any interruption of our information technology systems could have operational, reputational, legal and financial impacts that may have a material adverse effect on our business.
A cyber-attack or other information security breach could have a material adverse effect on our operations and result in financial losses.
We are regularly the target of attempted cyber and other security threats and must continuously monitor and develop our information technology networks and infrastructure to prevent, detect, address and mitigate the risk of unauthorized access, misuse, computer viruses and other events that could have a security impact. If we are unable to prevent cyber-attacks and other information security breaches, we may encounter significant disruptions in our operations which could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations or result in the unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. Such breaches may also harm our reputation, result in financial losses or subject us to litigation or other costs or penalties.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but are the intent, belief or current expectations of the Partnership’s management based on its knowledge and understanding of the business and industry. Words such as “may,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that these expectations will prove to have been correct. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements.
Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding:
● | our expectations regarding financial condition or results of operations in any future period; | |
● | our future sources of, and needs for, liquidity and capital resources; | |
● | our expectations regarding economic and business conditions (both nationally and where the Properties are located); | |
● | our business strategies and our ability to grow our business; | |
● | our decisions and policies with respect to the potential retention or disposition of one or more Properties; | |
● | our ability to find a suitable purchaser for any marketed Properties; | |
● | our ability to agree on an acceptable purchase price or contract terms for any Property sales; | |
● | our ability to collect rents on our leases; | |
● | our ability to maintain relationships with our tenants, and when necessary extend lease terms or identify new tenants; and | |
● | our future capital expenditures. |
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Partnership’s financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires persons performing the functions of the Partnership’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates, including investment impairment. These estimates are based on the General Partner’s historical industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Partnership believes that its most significant accounting policies pertain to:
Depreciation methods and lives- Depreciation of the properties is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the buildings and improvements. Additionally, the value of real estate is typically based on market conditions and property performance. As a result, depreciated book value of real estate may not reflect the market value of real estate assets.
Revenue recognition- Rental revenue from investment properties is recognized on the straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease when collectability is reasonably assured. Percentage rents are accrued only when the tenant has reached the sales breakpoint stipulated in the lease and collectability is reasonably assured.
10 |
Impairment-The Partnership periodically reviews its long-lived assets, primarily real estate, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Partnership’s review involves comparing current and future operating performance of the assets, the most significant of which is undiscounted operating cash flows, to the carrying value of the assets of the individual properties. Based on this analysis, if deemed necessary, a provision for possible loss is recognized.
Investment Properties
As of December 31, 2021, the Partnership owned nine Properties, all of which feature tenants that are franchisees of casual restaurants. The following are operated at the aforementioned nine Properties: eight Wendy’s restaurants, and an Applebee’s restaurant. The Properties are located in a total of three states.
Property taxes, general maintenance, insurance and ground rent on the Properties are the responsibility of the respective tenants. A more detailed discussion of tax payments, insurance and ground rent is provided in Item 2, and incorporated herein by this reference.
There were no building improvements capitalized during 2021 or 2020.

See the paragraphs below for further information as to variances in individual operating income and expense items. We are not aware of any material trends or uncertainties, other than national economic conditions affecting real estate generally that may reasonably be expected to have a material impact, favorable or unfavorable, on Partnership revenues and investment property value. The COVID-19 pandemic, to date, has not had a material adverse impact on the Partnership or the Property tenants. As restrictions continue to ease, we do not forsee any material impact of COVID-19 on the Partnership or the Property tenants.
Fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to fiscal year ended December 31, 2020:
Operating Rental Income: Operating rental income for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $1.753 and $1.464 million, respectively. The rental income was comprised of monthly lease obligations per the tenant leases, straight line rent adjustments and percentage rents obligations related to operating tenants who had reached their sales breakpoint. The increase in 2021 compared to 2020 was due to the higher base rental income from the six Wendy’s tenants whose lease amendments effective January 1, 2021 provide for higher base rents and higher percentage rent income breakpoints.

Management expects total base operating rental income to be approximately $1,338,060 for the 2022 fiscal year based on operating leases currently in place and do not include rents from properties held for sale. Future operating rental income has the potential to either decrease or increase. Future operating rental income may decrease with a tenant default and/or we may reclassify certain additional properties as properties held for sale. Future operating rental income may also increase with additional rents due from tenants, if those tenants experience increased sales levels, which require the payment of additional rent to the Partnership. Operating percentage rents included in operating rental income in the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $388,701 and $785,370, respectively. However, the additional rent earned was reduced by a capital improvements rent credit to the tenants of the Folly Road Property and Whiskey Road Property, so, the actual revenue earned from 2021 and 2020 was $366,473 and $607,599, net of the $22,229 and $177,771 rent credits, respectively. Management expects percentage rents for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 to be about the same as those received in 2021 because the same strong sales performance from 2021 is expected again in 2022.
Partnership Management Fees Expense: Partnership management fees expense for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $274,980 and $287,446, respectively. The General Partner receives a fee for managing the Partnership. See Note 5, Transactions with General Partner and Its Affiliates, for further information.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $66,038 and $84,090, respectively. General and administrative expenses were comprised of management expense, state/city registration and annual report filing fees, office supplies and printing costs, outside storage expenses, copy/fax costs, postage and shipping expenses, long-distance telephone expenses, website fees, bank fees and state income tax expenses. Total operating general and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 were higher than in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to $5,983 in increased postage and shipping fees related to the consent solicitation, as well as about $14,000 in higher state income tax expense related to 2020 income. Management expects the total operating general and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 to be much higher than for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 due to an expected increase in state income taxes due for 2021 income as a result of the sale of the Brakes 4 Less property, and 2022 increased quarterly estimated state income tax payments.
Professional Services: Professional services expenses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $197,792 and $245,340, respectively. Professional service expenses were primarily comprised of investor relations data processing, investor mailings processing, website design, legal, auditing and tax preparation fees, electronic tax filings, and SEC report conversion and processing fees. The General Partner anticipates that total professional services expenses for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 will be about $24,000 higher than incurred for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The costs in 2022 are expected to increase related to legal fees and increased costs for investor relations services.
Cash Flow Analysis
Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $1,512,480 and $840,153, respectively. Cash flows from operating activities was higher in 2021 primarily due to the increase in net income year over year.
Depreciation and amortization are non-cash items and do not affect the current operating cash flow of the Partnership or distributions to the limited partners.
Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $584,379 and $(4,231), respectively. The 2021 amount is comprised of proceeds from the sale of the Martinez, GA property, offset by a leasing commission paid to the General Partner related to the six Wendy’s leases that were extended thru December 31, 2040 as of January 1, 2021. The 2020 amount was comprised entirely of interest applied to the indemnification trust account.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, cash flows used in financing activities were $1,203,265 and consisted of aggregate limited partner distributions of $1,200,000 and General Partner distributions of $3,265. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, cash flows used in financing activities were $803,526 and consisted of aggregate limited partner distributions of $800,000 and General Partner distributions of $3,526. Both limited partner and General Partner distributions have been, and will continue to be, made in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. Management anticipates that aggregate limited partner distributions will be approximately $1,800,000 during 2022.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership’s cash balance was $965,838 at December 31, 2021. Cash of approximately $31,744 is anticipated to be used in 2022 for the payment of quarter-end accrued liabilities which are included in the balance sheets.
12 |
The Partnership’s principal demands for funds historically have been, and are expected to continue to be, for the payment of operating expenses and distributions. Management anticipates that cash generated through the operations of the Properties and potential sales of Properties will primarily provide the sources for future liquidity and limited partner distributions. During the process of leasing the Properties, the Partnership may experience competition from owners and managers of other similarly situated properties. As a result, in connection with negotiating tenant leases, along with recognizing market conditions, management may offer rental concessions, or other inducements, which may have an adverse impact on the results of the Partnership’s operations. The Partnership is also in competition with sellers of similar properties to locate suitable purchasers for its Properties. The two primary liquidity risks in the absence of mortgage debt are the Partnership’s inability to collect rent receivables and near- term or chronic property vacancies. The amount of cash to be distributed to our limited partners is determined by the General Partner and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for payment of distributions, capital expenditures, and taxable income recognition matching, which is primarily attributable to percentage rents and property sales.
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Properties were 100% leased. In addition, the Partnership collected 100% of its base rent due from current operating tenants for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, which we believe is a good indication of overall tenant quality and stability.
Eight of the nine Properties are operated as Wendy’s fast food restaurants and are franchises of the international Wendy’s Company. Operating base rents from these eight leases comprised approximately 90% of the total 2021 operating base rents included in operating rental income of the Partnership. During the year ended December 31, 2021, additional percentage rents totaled $388,701, $366,473 of which were unbilled and were accrued in relation to the Properties operated as Wendy’s restaurants. The remaining $22,229 was applied against capital improvement rent credits for the Folly Road Wendy’s Property. Therefore, during 2021, the Partnership generated approximately 92% of its total operating revenues from those eight Properties.
Since the Properties are leased to restaurant tenants, the restaurant market is the major market segment with a material impact on Partnership operations. The success of customer marketing and the operating effectiveness of the Partnership’s lessees will impact the Partnership’s future operating success in a very competitive restaurant and food service marketplace.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Partnership does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Disposition Policies
In deciding whether to sell a Property, the General Partner considers factors such as potential capital appreciation or depreciation, market and economic conditions and the general strength of the real estate market, cash flow and federal income tax considerations, including possible adverse federal income tax consequences to the limited partners. The General Partner may exercise its discretion as to whether and when to sell a Property, and there is no obligation to sell any of the Properties at any particular time, except upon Partnership dissolution currently scheduled for November 30, 2023 pursuant to the Partnership Agreement.
Inflation
To the extent that tenants can pass through commodity inflation in their sales prices, the Partnership will benefit from additional percentage rent from increased sales. The majority of the Partnership’s leases have percentage rental clauses. Revenues from operating percentage rentals represented 21% of operating rental income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and 42% of operating rental income for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020. If, however, inflation causes sales to decrease, operating margins to deteriorate for lessees, or if expenses grow faster than revenues, then, inflation may well negatively impact the portfolio through tenant defaults.
Due to the “triple-net” nature of the property leases, asset values generally move inversely with interest rates.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Partnership is not subject to market risk as defined by Item 305 of Regulation S-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Partners
of DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership (the Partnership) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related statements of income, partners’ capital and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnership’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Impairment of Investment Properties
Description of the matter:
The Partnership’s investment properties totaled $1.9 million as of December 31, 2021. As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Partnership reviews each investment property held for use for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an investment property may not be recoverable. The Partnership’s policy is to record impairment losses when indicators of impairment are present and the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by those properties are less than the properties’ carrying amount. If management determines that the carrying value of investment properties is impaired, a loss is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the properties exceeds the estimated fair value of the property.
No single indicator would necessarily result in management preparing an estimate to determine if the future undiscounted cash flows are less than the book value of the property investments. Management used judgement to determine if the severity of any single indicator or when there are a number of indicators of less severity when combined would result in an indication that a property investment subject to impairment evaluation requires an estimate of the undiscounted cash flows to determine if an impairment of a property investment has occurred.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit:
We obtained an understanding and evaluated the design of the controls related to the property investment impairment assessment process, including controls over management’s identification of indicators of impairment. As part of our evaluation of indicators of impairment, the measurement of the Partnership’s undiscounted future cash flows and fair value of the properties, we considered property operations, management’s capital investment, hold period, disposition strategy, current industry and economic trends and other relevant factors and assumptions.
We performed additional audit procedures surrounding the valuation of the Partnership’s investment properties by obtaining current property appraisals prepared by a nationally recognized appraisal firm for each of the nine properties and compared the appraised values to the carrying value of the properties. In addition, we evaluated the data and assumptions the appraisal firm used for reasonableness.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
DiVall
Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership (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 $
The
Partnership is currently engaged in the business of owning and operating its investment portfolio of commercial real estate properties
(the “Properties”). The Properties are leased on a triple net basis to, and operated by, franchisors or franchisees of national,
regional, and local retail chains under primarily long-term leases. The lessees are fast food, family style, and casual/theme restaurants.
As of December 31, 2021, the Partnership owned
The Partnership is scheduled to be dissolved on November 30, 2023, 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 previously 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 Interests did not vote in favor of any of the Consents. Therefore, the Partnership continues to operate as a going concern.
During the 2020 consent solicitation process, the Limited Partners approved two separate amendments to the Partnership Agreement. The amendments served to: (i) extend the term of the Partnership by three (3) years to November 30, 2023, and (ii) permit the General Partner to effect distributions at times that it deems appropriate, but no less often than semi-annually.
Significant Accounting Policies
Financial Statement Presentation
The accounts of the Partnership are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting for financial statement purposes.
Accounting Estimates
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 (and disclosure of contingent 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. Significant items, subject to such estimates and assumptions, include the carrying value of real estate held for investment.

DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents.
Cash Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Partnership generally maintains cash in federally insured accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Partnership has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk.
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Partnership to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash investments
and leases.
Rent and Other Receivables
Rents and other receivables are comprised of billed but uncollected amounts due for monthly rents and other charges and amounts due for scheduled rent increases for which rentals have been earned and will be collected in the future under the terms of the leases. Receivables are recorded at management’s estimate of the amounts that will be collected.

Revenue Recognition
Rental revenue from investment properties is recognized on the straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease when collectability is reasonably assured.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09 regarding ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard was developed to enable financial statement users to better understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The update’s core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Entities are to use a five-step contract review model to ensure revenue is recognized, measured and disclosed in accordance with this principle. Those steps include the following: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Partnership is not subject to federal income tax because its income and losses are includable in the tax returns of its partners but may be subject to certain state taxes. FASB has provided guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, disclosed and presented in the financial statements. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the entity’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more-likely-than-not to be sustained when challenged or when examined by the applicable taxing authority. Management has determined that there were no material uncertain income tax positions. Tax returns filed by the Partnership generally are subject to examination by U.S. and state taxing authorities for the years ended after December 31, 2018.

If the Partnership makes the decision to sell a property, it is reclassed from investment properties to properties held for sale. When properties are considered held for sale, depreciation of the properties is discontinued, and the properties are valued at the lower of the depreciated cost or fair value, less costs to dispose. If circumstances arise that were previously considered unlikely, and, as a result, the property previously classified as held for sale is no longer to be sold, the property is reclassified as held and used. Such property is measured at the lower of its carrying amount (adjusted for any depreciation and amortization expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used) or fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.
Assets are classified as held for sale, generally, when all criteria within GAAP applicable to “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets” have been met.

The Partnership periodically reviews its long-lived assets, primarily real estate, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Partnership’s review involves comparing current and future operating performance of the assets, the most significant of which is undiscounted operating cash flows, to the carrying value of the assets. Based on this analysis, a provision for possible loss is recognized, if any. There were no adjustments to carrying values for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Fair Value Measurements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance on “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about fair value measures required under other accounting pronouncements, but does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. See Note 9 for further disclosure.
GAAP applicable to disclosure about fair value of financial instruments requires entities to disclose the fair value of all financial assets and liabilities for which it is practicable to estimate. Fair value is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The General Partner believes that the carrying value of the Partnership’s assets (exclusive of the Properties) and liabilities approximate fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.
2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
In April 2020, the FASB issued a question-and-answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) focused on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”). Under existing lease guidance, the Partnership would have to determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement. The Lease Modification Q&A clarifies that entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief that lessors provide to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 on lessees is a lease modification under current lease guidance. Instead, an entity that elects not to evaluate whether a concession directly related to COVID-19 is a modification can then elect whether to apply the modification guidance.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Partnership provided a lease concession to one tenant in response to the impact of COVID-19, in the form of a short-term rent reduction. The Partnership has made an election to account for such lease concession consistent with how this concession would be accounted for under lease guidance if enforceable rights and obligations for this concession had already existed in the lease. This election is available for concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that do not result in a substantial increase in the rights as lessor, including concessions that result in the total payments required by the modified lease being substantially the same as or less than total payments required by the original lease.
The Partnership’s concession provided for a reduction of payments with no substantive changes to the consideration in the original lease. The reduction affected the amount of the lease payments during the months of April, May and June of 2020. The Partnership is accounting for this reduction as if no changes to the lease were made.
3. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES:
The total cost of the Properties includes the original purchase price plus acquisition fees and other capitalized costs paid to an affiliate of the former general partners of the Partnership.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
As per the Partnership Agreement, it has been the consistent practice of the Partnership to compensate the General Partner (“G.P.”) for leasing and property sales commissions. To the extent a particular property is sold, any unamortized leasing commissions earned previously by the G.P. for a property is applied as a reduction to the sales commission due the G.P.
8. PMA INDEMNIFICATION TRUST:
The
PMA provides that TPG will be indemnified from any claims or expenses arising out of, or relating to, TPG serving as the General Partner,
so long as such claims do not arise from fraudulent or criminal misconduct by TPG. The PMA provides that the Partnership fund this indemnification
obligation by establishing a reserve of up to $
9. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES:
The Partnership has determined the fair value based on hierarchy that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Inputs are broadly defined as assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the accounting principle are described below:
Level 1. | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |
Level 2. | Quoted prices for similar investments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar investments in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the investment. | |
Level 3. | Unobservable inputs for which there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information in the circumstances and may require significant management judgment or estimation and the use of discounted cash flow models to value the investment. |
The fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The Partnership’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment. The assets held in the indemnification trust account are invested in one year treasury bills which are measured using level 1 fair value inputs.
Except for the U.S. Treasury securities held
by the PMA Indemnification Trust which are Level 1 securities, the Partnership did
10. CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK
During the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus, COVID-19 which adversely impacted global commercial activity and contributed to significant volatility in financial markets. As the global impact of the outbreak was rapidly evolving, and as cases of the virus continued to be identified in additional countries, many countries reacted by instituting quarantines, placing restrictions on travel, and limiting hours of operations of non-essential offices and retail centers. Such actions created disruption in global supply chains, and adversely impacted a number of industries, such as retail, restaurants and transportation. During 2020, the coronavirus presented material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Partnership’s performance and financial results, such as the potential negative impact to the tenants of its properties, the potential closure of certain of its properties, decreases in sales volumes at the properties, increased costs of operations, decrease in values of its properties, changes in law and/or regulation, and uncertainty regarding government and regulatory policy. However, during 2021, restrictions began easing and restrictions on businesses were eased. Up to the date of this filing, the Partnership has not experienced material negative impacts from COVID-19, nor from any tenant except as disclosed in Note 2. All rent due have been paid in full by each tenant.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
See Item 14.
Item 9A. Control and Procedures
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the persons performing the functions of principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Partnership, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)), and, based upon that evaluation, concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
(i) The General Partner, through its management, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP. Our system of internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the General Partner; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Management of the General Partner performed an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 based upon criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on our assessment, management of the General Partner determined that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2021 based on the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
(ii) During the most recent period covered by this report, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III
Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant
The Partnership itself does not have any employees, executive officers or directors and, therefore, has no board committees.
The General Partner of the Partnership is TPG. TPG’s principal office is located at 1900 W 75th Street, Suite 100, Prairie Village, Kansas 66208. TPG was elected General Partner by vote of the Limited Partners effective on May 26, 1993. Prior to such date, TPG had been managing the Partnership since February 8, 1993, under the terms of the PMA, which remains in effect. See Items 1 and 13 hereof for additional information about the PMA and the election of TPG as General Partner.
The executive officer and director of the General Partner who controls the affairs of the Partnership is:
Bruce A. Provo, Age 71 - President, Founder and Director, TPG.
Mr. Provo has been involved in the management of real estate and other asset portfolios since 1979. TPG was founded by Mr. Provo in 1985 and he has served as its President since its formation. TPG’s focus has been to provide professional real estate services to outside clients. Since the founding of TPG in 1985, Mr. Provo has also founded various entities engaged in unique businesses such as Rescue Services, Owner Representation, Asset Management, Managed Financial and Accounting Systems, Investments, and Virtual Resort Services. The entities are generally grouped under an informal umbrella known as The Provo Group of Companies. Since TPG was appointed General Partner to the Partnership in 1993, Mr. Provo has been primarily responsible for making management, leasing and disposition decisions on behalf of the Partnership.
From 1982 to 1986, Mr. Provo also served as President and Chief Operating Officer of the North Kansas City Development Company (“NKCDC”), North Kansas City, Missouri. NKCDC was founded in 1903 and the assets of the company were sold in December 1985 for $102,500,000. NKCDC owned commercial and industrial properties, including an office park and a retail district, as well as apartment complexes, motels, recreational facilities, fast food restaurants, and other properties. NKCDC’s holdings consisted of over 100 separate properties and constituted approximately 20% of the privately held real property in North Kansas City, Missouri (a four-square mile municipality). Following the sale of the company’s real estate, Mr. Provo served as the President, Chief Executive Officer and Liquidating Trustee of NKCDC from 1986 to 1991.
Mr. Provo graduated from Miami University, Oxford, Ohio in 1972 with a B.S. in Accounting. He became a Certified Public Accountant in 1974 and was a manager in the banking and financial services division of Arthur Andersen LLP prior to joining Rubloff Development Corporation in 1979. From 1979 through 1985, Mr. Provo served as Vice President - Finance and then as President of Rubloff Development Corporation.
The members of the Advisory Board of the Partnership are identified below. The Advisory Board provides guidance to management of the Partnership; however, it does not have the express power or authority to oversee and direct the operations of the Partnership and its members are not deemed “Directors” or “Executive Officers” of the Partnership.
Jesse Small – CPA. Mr. Small has been a tax and business consultant in Hallandale, FL for more than 30 years. Mr. Small has a Master’s Degree in Economics. Mr. Small is a Limited Partner, and the Partnership believes that as an Advisory Board member, he generally represents the views of Limited Partners. During the past five years after retiring from the accounting profession, Mr. Small has been developing property on the east and west coast of Florida.
Albert Kramer - Retired. Mr. Kramer is now retired, but previously worked as Tax Litigation Manager for Phillips Petroleum Company, now known as ConocoPhillips. His education includes undergraduate and MBA degrees from Harvard and a J.D. Degree from South Texas College of Law. Mr. Kramer is a Limited Partner, and the Partnership believes that as an Advisory Board member he generally represents the views of Limited Partners.
29 |
Code of Ethics
The Partnership has no executive officers or any employees and, accordingly, has not adopted a formal code of ethics.
Mr. Provo and TPG require that all personnel, including all employees, officers and directors of TPG: engage in honest and ethical conduct; ensure full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure; comply with all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; and report to Mr. Provo any deviation from these principles. Because TPG has two employees (including Mr. Provo), and because Mr. Provo is the ultimate decision maker in all instances, TPG has not adopted a formal code of ethics. Mr. Provo, as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of TPG, negotiates and resolves all conflicts to the best of his ability and determines appropriate actions if necessary to deter violations and promote accountability, consistent with his fiduciary obligations to TPG and the fiduciary obligations of TPG to the Partnership.
Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires persons performing the functions of directors, executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
To our knowledge, based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us under Rule 16a-3(e) during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, Forms 5 and any amendments thereto furnished to us with respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and the representations made by the reporting persons to us, we believe that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, our executive officers and directors and all persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.
Item 11. Executive Compensation
The Partnership has not paid any executive compensation to the General Partner or to the directors and officers of the General Partner. The person that performs the role of principal financial officer of the Partnership is a consultant to the General Partner and receives fees from the General Partner (but not directly from the Partnership) pursuant to that relationship. The General Partner’s participation in the income of the Partnership is set forth in the Partnership Agreement, as amended. The General Partner received management fees and expense reimbursements during the year.
See Item 13, below, and Note 5 to the Financial Statements in Item 8 hereof for further discussion of payments by the Partnership to the General Partner and the former general partners. The principal executive officer of the General Partner is not directly compensated by the Partnership for controlling the affairs of the Partnership.
Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
(a) The following table sets forth certain information with respect to such beneficial ownership of the Partnership as of March 1, 2022. Based on information known to the Partnership or filed by limited partners with the SEC, the following persons are known to beneficially own 5% or more of the outstanding Interests as follows:

30 |
(b) As of March 1, 2022, the General Partner and the person who performs the functions of the principal executive officer of the General Partner did not beneficially own any Interests.
(c) Management knows of no contractual arrangements, the operation or the terms of which may at a subsequent date result in a change of control of the Partnership, except for provisions in the PMA.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence
Pursuant to the terms of the PMA, the General Partner receives a Base Fee for managing the Partnership equal to four percent of gross receipts, subject to a $159,000 minimum, annually. The PMA also provides that the Partnership is responsible for reimbursement for office rent and related office overhead (“Expenses”) up to a maximum of $13,250 annually. Both the Base Fee and Expense reimbursement are subject to annual Consumer Price Index based adjustments. Effective March 1, 2021, Management has elected to roll back the last five years of CPI increases to their 2016 level and suspend any future CPI adjustments. Therefore, as of March 1, 2021, the minimum annual Base Fee paid by the Partnership was decreased to $272,316 and the maximum annual Expenses reimbursement remained at $23,256.
Additionally, TPG, or its affiliates, are allowed up to one-half of the commissions customarily charged by other brokers in arm’s-length sales transactions involving comparable properties in the same geographic area, but such TPG commissions are not to exceed three percent of the contract price on the sale of an investment property. The payment of a portion of such fees is subordinated to TPG’s success at recovering the funds misappropriated by the former general partners. See Note 7 to the financial statements for further information.
The PMA had an original expiration date of December 31, 2002. The term of the PMA has been extended multiple times and is currently set to expire on December 31, 2022. The PMA can be terminated earlier (a) by a vote at any time by a majority in interest of the Limited Partners, (b) upon the dissolution and winding up of the Partnership, (c) upon the entry of an order of a court finding that TPG has engaged in fraud or other like misconduct or has shown itself to be incompetent in carrying out its duties under the Partnership Agreement, or (d) upon sixty (60) days written notice from TPG to the Limited Partners of the Partnership. Upon termination of the PMA, other than by the voluntary action of TPG, TPG will be paid a termination fee of one month’s Base Fee allocable to the Partnership, subject to a minimum of $13,250. In the event that TPG is terminated by action of a substitute general partner, TPG shall also receive, as part of this termination fee, 4% of any proceeds recovered with respect to the obligations of the former general partners, whenever such proceeds are collected.
Under the PMA, TPG will be indemnified by the Partnership, DiVall and Magnuson, and their controlled affiliates, and held harmless from all claims of any party to the Partnership Agreement and from any third party including, without limitation, the Limited Partners of the Partnership, for any and all liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from or related to claims relating to or arising from the PMA or its status as Permanent Manager. The indemnification does not extend to claims arising from fraud or criminal misconduct of TPG as established by court findings. To the extent possible, the Partnership is to provide TPG with appropriate errors and omissions, officer’s liability or similar insurance coverage, at no cost to TPG. In addition, TPG was granted the right to establish an Indemnification Trust in an original amount, not to exceed $250,000, solely for the purpose of funding such indemnification obligations. Once a determination has been made that no such claims can or will be made against TPG, the balance of the Trust will become unrestricted property of the Partnership. The corpus of the Trust has been fully funded with Partnership assets.
Advisory Board Member Independence
Although not “directors” or “officers” of the Partnership, the Partnership does evaluate whether the members of the Advisory Board are “independent” by evaluating whether each member has any relationships or has engaged in any transactions that, in the opinion of the General Partner, would interfere with any Advisory Board member’s exercise of independent judgment with respect to matters concerning the Partnership. As a part of this evaluation the General Partner considers, among other things, transactions and relationships between any member of the Advisory Board or any member of his family and the Partnership. The General Partner believes that each of Messrs.Small and Kramer are “independent”.
