The combined purchase price of the 22 operating industrial properties acquired totaled approximately $197.3 million.
Risk Factor
The sole general partner of the Operating Partnership is First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”). The Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) as defined in the Internal Revenue code.
The following reflects changes to a risk factor previously disclosed in the Operating Partnership’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006:
If the IRS were to disagree with our characterization of certain arrangements entered into by the Company as reimbursements or the timing of certain assignments of contracts by the Company, the Company could be subject to a penalty tax or fail to remain qualified as a REIT.
The Company believes that it has operated and intends to continue to operate so as to qualify as a REIT under the Code. Although the Company believes that it is organized and has operated in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT, qualification as a REIT involves the satisfaction of numerous requirements, some of which must be met on a recurring basis. These requirements are established under highly technical and complex Code provisions of which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations and involve the determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within the Operating Partnership’s control.
The Operating Partnership (through one of its subsidiary partnerships) entered into certain development agreements in 2000 through 2003, the performance of which has been completed. Under these agreements, the Operating Partnership provided services to unrelated third parties and certain payments were made by the unrelated third parties for services provided by certain contractors hired by the Operating Partnership. The Company believes that these payments were properly characterized by it as reimbursements for costs incurred by it on behalf of the third parties and do not constitute gross income and did not prevent the Company from satisfying the gross income requirements of the REIT provisions (the “gross income tests”). The Company brought this matter to the attention of the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). The IRS did not challenge or express any interest in challenging the Company’s view on this matter.
Employees of the Operating Partnership, a subsidiary partnership of the Company (the “Service Employees”), were providing certain acquisition and disposition services since 2004 and certain leasing and property management services since 1997 to one of the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiaries (the “TRS”), and have also been providing certain of these services (or similar services) to joint ventures in which Operating Partnership owns a minority interest or to unrelated parties. In determining whether it satisfied the gross income tests for certain years, the Company has taken and intends to take the position that the costs of the Service Employees should be shared between the Operating Partnership and the TRS and that no fee income should be imputed to the Company as a result of such arrangement. However, because certain of these services (or similar services) have also been performed for the joint ventures or unrelated parties described above, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not successfully challenge this position. First Industrial, L.P. believes that it has taken appropriate steps to address this issue going forward, but there can be no assurance that such steps will adequately resolve this issue.
During 2006, the Company determined that the Operating Partnership’s fee income to be derived in 2006 and subsequent years from joint ventures with third parties (“joint venture fee income”) might materially exceed joint venture fee income in prior years. If steps were not taken, this increased fee income might have caused the Company to violate the gross income tests in 2006 and subsequent years. The Company decided to address this issue by transferring employees providing the services, and assigning the service contracts giving rise to the fee income, from the Operating Partnership to the TRS. The Company believes that these transfers were completed early enough in 2006 to have avoided this potential gross income issue for 2006. The employees were transferred promptly to the TRS. However, the documentation for the assignment of the service contracts was completed later because changes were required to the transaction documentation for each of the joint ventures involved and, in some cases, consent of the respective joint venture partner was needed. It is therefore possible that the IRS could raise an issue as to when the service activity generating the joint venture fee income shifted to the TRS for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In light of this possibility, the Company presently intends to seek clarification from the IRS in the form of a private letter ruling or closing agreement. The Company intends to ask the IRS to confirm that (i) the transfers were made early enough in 2006 to have avoided any potential violation of the gross income tests or alternatively, that (ii) if the transfers occurred later in 2006 than the Company intended, the gross income tests were satisfied in any event.
If the IRS were to challenge either of the positions described in the second and third paragraphs and were successful, or the IRS were unwilling to provide the clarification described in the fourth paragraph, the Company could be found not to have satisfied the gross income tests in one or more of its taxable years. If the Company were found not to have satisfied the gross income tests, it could be subject to a penalty tax as a result of any such violations, but the Company does not believe that any such penalty tax would be material. However, such noncompliance should not adversely affect the Company’s qualification as a REIT as long as such noncompliance was due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect and certain other requirements were met. The Company believes that, in all three situations, any such noncompliance was due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect and that such other requirements will have been met.
If the Company were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it would be subject to federal income tax, including any applicable alternative minimum tax, on its taxable income at corporate rates. This could result in a discontinuation or substantial reduction in dividends to unitholders and in cash to pay interest and principal on debt securities that the Operating Partnership issues. Unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, the Company would be disqualified from electing treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which it failed to qualify as a REIT.

The Historical Summaries have been prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and for inclusion in this current report on Form 8-K of the Operating Partnership and future registration statements filed by the Operating Partnership. The Historical Summaries are not intended to be a complete presentation of the revenues and expenses of the 2006 Acquisition X Property. The Historical Summary excludes certain expenses such as interest, depreciation and amortization, professional fees, and other costs not directly related to the future operations of the 2006 Acquisition X Property that may not be comparable to the expenses expected to be incurred in future operations. Management is not aware of any material factors relating to this property which would cause the reported financial information not to be necessarily indicative of future operating results.
Use of Estimates
In order to conform with generally accepted accounting principles, management, in preparation of the Historical Summaries, is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and certain expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Revenue and Expense Recognition
Rental income is recorded when due from tenants based upon lease terms. The effects of scheduled rent increases and rental concessions, if any, are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the tenant’s lease. Tenant recovery income includes payments from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses, if applicable, and is recognized as revenue in the same period the related expenses are incurred by the Property.
Direct operating expenses represent the direct expenses of operating the 2006 Acquisition X Property and include real estate taxes that are expected to continue in the ongoing operation of the 2006 Acquisition X Property. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, utilities, and insurance are paid directly by the tenant.

Background
First Industrial, L.P. was organized as a limited partnership in the state of Delaware on November 23, 1993. The sole general partner is First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) with an approximate 87.3% and 86.8% ownership interest at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership owned approximately a 12.7% and 13.2% interest in the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. The Company’s operations are conducted primarily through the Operating Partnership.
The Operating Partnership acquired 57 operating industrial properties from unrelated parties during the period January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006. The combined purchase price of the 57 operating industrial properties acquired totaled approximately $331.1 million, excluding closing costs incurred in conjunction with the acquisition of the industrial properties. The 57 operating industrial properties acquired were funded with proceeds from property sales, borrowings under the Operating Partnership’s $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Unsecured Line of Credit”) and/or working capital. The Operating Partnership will operate the facilities as industrial rental property. The Operating Partnership also acquired 22 operating industrial properties from unrelated parties during the period January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006, which are not included in the accompanying unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, as the properties were vacant upon purchase, leased back to the seller(s) upon purchase or subsequently sold before December 31, 2006. The combined purchase price of the 22 operating industrial properties acquired totaled approximately $197.3 million.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 reflects the historical operations of the Operating Partnership for the period January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006, adjusted by the operations from the acquisition of 41 industrial properties (the “2006 Acquisition A Properties), one operating industrial property (the “2006 Acquisition I Property”), one operating industrial property (the “2006 Acquisition II Property”), one operating industrial property (the “2006 Acquisition III Property”), six operating industrial properties (the “2006 Acquisition IV Properties”), two operating industrial properties (the “2006 Acquisition VI Properties”), one operating industrial property (the “2006 Acquisition VII Property”), one operating industrial property (the “2006 Acquisition VIII Property”), two operating industrial properties (the “2006 Acquisition IX Properties”), and one operating industrial property (the “2006 Acquisition X Property”), collectively referred to as the “2006 Acquisition Properties”, during the period January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 reflects the historical operations of the Operating Partnership for the period January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005, adjusted by the operations from the acquisition of the 2006 Acquisition Properties during the period January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2006.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the year ended December 31, 2005 have been prepared as if the following transactions that occurred subsequent to December 31, 2005; (i) the acquisition of real estate properties, (ii) the receipt of net proceeds from the disposition of real estate (offset by any provided seller financing), (iii) the issuance of preferred stock and (iv) the issuance of debt, had occurred on January 1, 2005.
The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the Operating Partnership’s consolidated results that would have occurred if the transactions and adjustments reflected therein had been consummated in the period or on the date presented, or on any particular date in the future, nor does it purport to present the Operating Partnership’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows for future periods.
