Information included in the condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 has been derived from the audited balance sheet included in Registrant's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 (the "10-K") previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements unless significant changes have taken place since the end of the most recent fiscal year. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes to financial statements and the other information in the 10-K. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Note B Interim Period Reporting Registrant was originally organized as a partnership which was organized on September 25, 1958. On October 1, 1958, Registrant acquired fee title to the Lincoln Building (the "Building") and the land thereunder, located at 60 East 42nd Street, New York, New York (the "Property"). On November 28, 2001, Registrant converted to a limited liability company under New York law and is now known as 60 East 42nd St. Associates L.L.C. The conversion does not change any aspect of the assets and operations of Registrant other than to protect its participants from any future liability to a third party. Registrant's members are Peter L. Malkin, Anthony E. Malkin, Scott D. Malkin, Thomas N. Keltner, Jr., Fred C. Posniak, Jack Feirman and Mark Labell (individually, a "Member" and, collectively, the "Members"), each of whom also acts as an agent for holders of participations in the Registrant ( individually, a "Participant" and, collectively, "Participants"). -6- 60 East 42nd Street Assocaites June 30, 2002 Registrant leases the Property to Lincoln Building Associates ("Lessee") under a long-term net operating lease (the "Lease"), the current term of which expires on September 30, 2008. (There is one additional 25-year term which, if exercised, will extend the Lease until September 30, 2033.) Lessee is a partnership whose partners consist of, among others, trusts for the benefit of members of Peter L. Malkin's family. Six of the seven members in Registrant are at Wien & Malkin LLP, 60 East 42nd Street, New York, New York, which provides supervisory and other services to Registrant and to Lessee (the "Supervisor"). See Note C of this Item 1 ("Note C"). In 1999, the participants in Registrant and the partners in Lessee consented to a building improvement program (the "Program") estimated to cost approximately $28,000,000 and expected to take two to three years to complete. To induce the Lessee to approve the Program, Associates agreed to grant to the Lessee, upon completion of the Program, an extension of the lease for an additional 50 years to 2083. The Lease, as modified March 1, 2000, provides that Lessee is required to pay Registrant: (i) annual basic rent (the "Basic Rent") equal to the sum of $24,000 for supervisory services payable to Supervisor plus the constant installment payments of interest and amortization (excluding any balloon principal due at maturity) payable during such year under all mortgages to which the Lease is subordinate, provided that the aggregate principal balance of all mortgages now or hereafter placed on the Property does not exceed $ 40,000,000 plus refinancing costs. (ii) (A) additional rent (the "Additional Rent") equal to the lesser of (x) Lessee's net operating income for the lease year or (y) $1,053,800 and (B) further additional rent ("Further Additional Rent") equal to 50% of any remaining balance of Lessee's net operating income for such lease year. (Lessee has no obligation to make any payment of Additional Rent or Further Additional Rent until after Lessee has recouped any cumulative operating loss accruing from and after September 30, 1977. There is currently no accumulated operating loss against which to offset payment of Additional Rent or Further Additional Rent.) (iii) An advance against Additional Rent equal to the lesser of (x) Lessee's net operating income for the preceding lease year or (y) $1,053,800, which, in the latter amount, will permit basic distributions to Participants at an annual rate of approximately 14.95% per annum on their remaining cash investment in Registrant; provided, however, if such advances exceed Lessee's net operating income for any Lease year, advances otherwise required during the subsequent lease year shall be reduced by an amount equal to such excess until Lessee shall have recovered, through retention of net operating income, the full amount of such excess. After the participants have received distributions equal to a return of 14% per annum, $7,380 is paid to Supervisor from the advances against Additional Rent. Further Additional Rent income is recognized when earned from the Lessee, at the close of the lease year ending September 30. Such income is not determinable until the Lessee, pursuant to the Lease, renders to Registrant a report on the operation of the Property. Further Additional Rent for the lease year ended September 30, 2001 was $8,057,690. After the payment of $805,769 to Supervisor as an additional payment for supervisory services, the balance of $7,251,921 was distributed to the Participants on November 30, 2001. -7- 60 East 42nd Street Assocaites June 30, 2002 A refinancing of the existing first mortgage loan on the Property in the original principal amount of $12,020,814 was closed on October 6, 1994 (the "Mortgage"). Annual Mortgage charges are $1,063,842, payable in equal monthly installments of $88,654, representing interest only at the rate of 8.85% per annum. The Mortgage will mature on October 31, 2004 and is prepayable in whole after October 6, 1995 with a penalty providing interest protection to the mortgagee. The Mortgage is prepayable in whole without penalty during the 90-day period prior to its maturity date. The refinancing costs were capitalized by Registrant and are being expensed ratably during the period of the mortgage extension from October 6, 1994 to October 31, 2004. A second mortgage loan with Emigrant Savings Bank in the amount of $27,979,186 was closed on March 9, 2000 and advances of $13,000,000 have been taken as of June 30, 2002. Monthly payments of interest only at the rate of 8.21% per annum apply to the advances made through September 30, 2000. Amounts advanced from October 1, 2000 through September 30, 2002 and amounts in excess of $7,000,000 are at interest only at the 30 day LIBOR rate. Amounts advanced after October 1, 2002 require interest only payments at 1.65 points in excess of the yield on U.S. Treasury Securities. Maturity is October 31, 2004. During the prepayment period, Borrower has the option to prepay the second mortgage note in whole only, on the first day of any month upon (i) prior written notice given by prepaid registered or certified mail at least sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for prepayment and (ii) the payment of the prepayment premium plus accrued interest. There shall be no prepayment premium after October 1, 2004 to and including the Maturity Date. Note C - Supervisory Services Registrant pays Supervisor for supervisory services and disbursements. The supervisory fees are $24,000 per annum (the "Basic Payment"): plus an additional payment of 10% of all distributions to Participants in Registrant in any year in excess of the amount representing a return at the rate of 14% per annum on their remaining cash investment (the "Additional Payment"). At June 30, 2002, such remaining cash investment was $7,000,000 representing the original cash investment of Participants in Registrant. -8- 60 East 42nd Street Assocaites June 30, 2002 The supervisory services provided to Registrant by supervisor include, but are not limited to providing or coordinating with counsel to Registrant, maintaining all of its entity and Participant records, performing physical inspections of the Building, reviewing insurance coverage and conducting annual supervisory review meetings, receipt of monthly rent from Net Lessee, payment of monthly and additional distributions to the Participants, payment of all other disbursements, confirmation of the payment of real estate taxes, and active review of financial statements submitted to Registrant by Net Lessee and financial statements audited by and tax information prepared by Registrant's independent certified public accountant, and distribution of such materials to the Participants. Supervisor also prepares quarterly, annual and other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and applicable state authorities. Registrant also pays Supervisor for other services at hourly rates. Pursuant to the fee arrangements described herein, Registrant paid Supervisor $12,000 of the Basic Payment and $3,690 on account of the Additional Payment, for supervisory services for the six month period ended June 30, 2002. No remuneration was paid during the six month period ended June 30, 2002 by Registrant to any of the Members as such. Reference is made to Note B of Item 1 ("Note B") for a description of the terms of the Lease between Registrant and Lessee. As of June 30, 2002, Peter L. Malkin owned a partnership interest in Lessee. The respective interests, if any, of the Members in Registrant and Lessee arise solely from ownership of their respective participations in Registrant and, in the case of Peter L. Malkin, his individual ownership of a partnership interest in Lessee. The Members as such receive no extra or special benefit not shared on a pro rata basis with all other Participants in Registrant or partners in Lessee. However, each of the seven Members who is currently a member of Supervisor (which supervises Registrant and Lessee), by reason of his interests in Supervisor, may receive income attributable to supervisory, service, legal or other remuneration paid to Supervisor for services rendered to Registrant and Lessee. As of June 30, 2002, the Members owned of record and beneficially an aggregate $61,667 of participations in Registrant, representing .88% of the currently outstanding participations therein. In addition, as of June 30, 2002, certain of the Members in Registrant (or their respective spouses) held additional Participations in Registrant as follows: Peter L. Malkin owned of record as trustee or co-trustee an aggregate of $55,714 of Participations. Peter L. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations. Entities for the benefit of members of Peter L. Malkin's family owned of record and beneficially $107,500 of Participations. Peter L. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations, except that related trusts are required to complete scheduled payments to him. -9- 60 East 42nd Street Assocaites June 30, 2002 Anthony E. Malkin owned of record as co-trustee an aggregate of $25,000 of Participations. Anthony E. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. As stated in Note B, Registrant was organized solely for the purpose of acquiring the Property subject to a net operating lease held by Lessee. Registrant is required to pay, from Basic Rent under the Lease, mortgage charges and amounts for supervisory services. Registrant is required to pay from Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent additional amounts for supervisory services and then to distribute the balance of such Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent to the Participants. Under the Lease, Lessee has assumed sole responsibility for the condition, operation, repair, maintenance and management of the Property. Registrant is not required to maintain substantial reserves or otherwise maintain liquid assets to defray any operating expenses of the Property. Registrant does not pay dividends. During the six month period ended June 30, 2002, Registrant made regular monthly distributions of $124.57 for each $10,000 participation ($1,494.89 per annum for each $10,000 participation). There are no restrictions on Registrant's present or future ability to make distributions; however, the amount of such distributions particularly distributions of Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent, depends solely on the ability of Lessee to make payments of Basic Rent, Additional Rent and Further Additional Rent to Registrant. Registrant expects to make distributions so long as it receives the payments provided for under the Lease. On November 30, 2001, Registrant made an additional distribution of $10,359.89 for each $10,000 participation. Such distribution represents Further Additional Rent paid by the Lessee in accordance with the terms of the Lease after the Additional Payment to Supervisor. See Notes B and C. Registrant's results of operations are affected primarily by the amount of rent payable to it under the Lease. The amount of Overage Rent payable to Registrant is affected by the New York City economy and real estate rental market. It is difficult for management to forecast the New York City real estate market. The following summarizes, with respect to the current period and the corresponding period of the previous year, the material factors regarding Registrant's results of operations for such periods: -10- 60 East 42nd Street Assocaites June 30, 2002 Total income increased for the six month period ended June 30, 2002, as compared with the six month period ended June 30, 2001. Such increase is the net result of an increase in basic rent to cover an increase in debt service payable by Registrant and a decrease in interest income in the period ended June 30, 2002 as compared with the period ended June 30, 2001. Total expenses increased for the six month period ended June 30, 2002, as compared with the six month period ended June 30, 2001. Such increase is attributable to an increase in interest on the mortgage paid by Registrant, amortization of mortgage refinancing costs and the depreciation of improvements in the period ended June 30, 2002 as compared with the period ended June 30, 2001. Liquidity and Capital Resources Registrant's liquidity has decreased significantly due to the improvement program for the six month period ended June 30, 2002, as compared with the six month period ended June 30, 2001. Costs relating to the improvement program are funded from proceeds of a second mortgage of $27,979,186, of which $14,979,186 is available to be drawn down at June 30, 2002. Registrant may from time to time establish a reserve for contingent or unforeseen liabilities. No amortization payments are due under the Mortgages to fully satisfy the outstanding principal balance at maturity, and furthermore Registrant does not maintain any reserve to cover the payment of such Mortgage indebtedness at maturity. Therefore, repayment of the Mortgage will depend on Registrant's ability to arrange a refinancing. Assuming that the Property continues to generate an annual net profit in future years comparable to that in past years, and assuming further that current real estate trends continue in the geographic area in which the Property is located, Registrant anticipates that the value of the Property would be in excess of the amount of the mortgage balance at maturity. Registrant anticipates that funds for working capital for the Property will be provided by rental payments received from Lessee and, to the extent necessary, from additional capital investment by the partners in Lessee and/or external financing. However, as noted above, Registrant has no requirement to maintain substantial reserves to defray any operating expenses of the Property. Inflation Registrant has been advised that there has been no material change in the impact of inflation on its operations since the filing of its report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001, which report and all exhibits thereto are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. -11- 60 East 42nd Street Assocaites June 30, 2002 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. The property of Registrant is the subject of the following material pending litigation: Wien & Malkin LLP, et. al. v. Helmsley-Spear, Inc., et. al. On June 19, 1997 Wien & Malkin LLP and Peter L. Malkin filed an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, against Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and Leona Helmsley concerning various partnerships which own, lease or operate buildings managed by Helmsley-Spear, Inc., including Registrant's property. In their complaint, plaintiffs sought the removal of Helmsley-Spear, Inc. as managing and leasing agent for all of the buildings. Plaintiffs also sought an order precluding Leona Helmsley from exercising any partner management powers in the partnerships. In August, 1997, the Supreme Court directed that the foregoing claims proceed to arbitration. As a result, Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP filed an arbitration complaint against Helmsley- Spear, Inc. and Mrs. Helmsley before the American Arbitration Association. Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and Mrs. Helmsley served answers denying liability and asserting various affirmative defenses and counterclaims; and Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP filed a reply denying the counterclaims. By agreement dated December 16, 1997, Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP (each for their own account and not in any representative capacity) reached a settlement with Mrs. Helmsley of the claims and counterclaims in the arbitration and litigation between them. Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP then continued their prosecution of claims in the arbitration for relief against Helmsley- Spear, Inc., including its termination as the leasing and managing agent for various entities and properties, including the Registrant's Lessee. The arbitration hearings were concluded in June 2000, and the arbitrators issued their decision on March 30, 2001, ordering that the termination of Helmsley-Spear, Inc. would require a new vote by the partners in the Lessee, setting forth procedures for such a vote, and denying the other claims of all parties. Following the decision, Helmsley-Spear, Inc. applied to the court for confirmation of the decision, and Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP applied to the court for an order setting aside that part of the decision regarding the procedure for partnership voting to terminate Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and various other parts of the decision on legal grounds. The court granted the motion to confirm the arbitrators' decision and denied the application to set aside part of the arbitrators' decision. Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP have served notice of appeal of the court's determination. Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K. (a) The exhibits hereto are being incorporated by reference.
