ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
North Kent Mall
In October 1983, the Partnership funded a $5,455,654 loan evidenced by a
promissory note in the amount of $11,000,000 and collateralized by a
wrap-around mortgage on North Kent Mall, Grand Rapids, Michigan (the
"Property"). The Partnership obtained title to the Property pursuant to a deed
in lieu of foreclosure on January 14, 1994. The Property was acquired subject
to two mortgage loans each held by a different unaffiliated lender, one
collateralized by the Property with the exception of an outlot (the "Mall") and
the other collateralized solely by the outlot (the "Outlot"). As of August 31,
1997, the loan collateralized by the Mall (the "Mall Loan") and the loan
collateralized by the Outlot had outstanding principal amounts of approximately
$1,645,000 and $779,000, respectively.
In 1996, the Partnership made a $100,000 principal payment on the Mall Loan to
extend its maturity to December 31, 1996. Subsequently, the Partnership and the
holder of the Mall Loan (the "Lender") executed an agreement effective as of
January 1, 1997, pursuant to which the maturity date of the Mall Loan was
further extended to September 1, 1997, allowing the Partnership time to locate
a purchaser and consummate a sale of the Mall. In the event no sale occurred
by September 1, 1997, title to the Mall was obligated to be conveyed to the
Lender pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The Partnership was unable
to complete a sale of the Mall and on September 18, 1997, the deed in lieu of
foreclosure was delivered to the Lender for recording. Upon the recording of
the deed, the Partnership will have no further obligations under the Mall Loan
and no further interest in the Mall.
The loan collateralized by the Outlot matures in 2010. The Partnership is
currently marketing the Outlot for sale.
ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
- ------------------------------------
Glendale Fashion Center
As previously reported, on October 10, 1996, the Partnership contracted to sell
the Glendale Fashion Center, Glendale, California, to an unaffiliated party,
Vestar Development Co., an Arizona corporation. The sale price is $10,700,000.
Pursuant to agreements between the purchaser and the Partnership, the
purchaser had the option to extend the closing date, originally scheduled for
March 31, 1997, for up to six 30 periods upon three business days advance
notice to the Partnership and the deposit of additional earnest money. The
purchaser and the Partnership have executed an amendment to the agreement of
sale permitting two additional 30 day extensions through December 2, 1997. The
purchaser previously exercised options to extend the closing date to October
27, 1997 and deposited additional earnest money for a total of $750,000 of
earnest money held in the escrow account. It is expected that the purchaser
will exercise options to further extend the closing date.
