(collectively the "Purchasers")
THE OFFER AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS PERIOD WILL EXPIRE AT 12:00 MIDNIGHT,
PACIFIC TIME, ON JULY 17, 2005, UNLESS THE OFFER IS EXTENDED.
The Purchasers hereby seek to acquire 15,000 Units of limited partnership
interest (the "Units") in CONSOLIDATED RESOURCES HEALTH CARE FUND II (the
"Partnership"). The Purchasers are not affiliated with the Partnership or its
general partner. The general partner of the Partnership is Welcare Service
Corporation-II (the "General Partner"). The Purchasers hereby offer to purchase
15,000 Units at a purchase price equal to $475 per Unit, less the amount of any
distributions declared or made with respect to the Units between June 17, 2005
and July 17, 2005, or such other date to which this offer may be extended (the
"Expiration Date"), in cash, without interest, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in this offer to purchase (the "Offer to Purchase") and in
the related Letter of Transmittal, as each may be supplemented or amended from
time to time (which together constitute the "Offer"). As noted above, the Offer
price would be subject to reduction for distributions made or declared prior to
the Expiration Date. Any distributions made or declared after the Expiration
Date would, by the terms of the Offer and as set forth in the Letter of
Transmittal, be assigned by tendering Unit holders to the Purchasers.
Tender of Units will include the tender of any and all securities into which the
Units may be converted and any securities distributed with respect to the Units
from and after the Offer Date.
The Partnership had 1,243 holders of record owning an aggregate of 15,000 units
as of December 31, 2001, according to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. The Purchasers and their affiliates
currently beneficially own 746 Units, or 4.97% of the outstanding Units. The
15,000 Units subject to the Offer constitute 100% of the outstanding Units.
Consummation of the Offer, if all Units sought are tendered, would require
payment by the Purchasers of up to $7,125,000.00 in aggregate purchase price,
which the Purchasers intend to fund out of their current working capital.
Holders of Units ("Unit holders") are urged to consider the following factors:
o Unit holders who tender their Units will give up the opportunity to
participate in any future benefits from the ownership of Units,
including potential future distributions by the Partnership from
property operations or dispositions, and the purchase price per Unit
payable to a tendering Unit holder by the Purchasers may be less
than the total amount which might otherwise be received by the Unit
holder with respect to the Unit over the remaining term of the
Partnership.
o The Offer Price is higher than the offer currently being made by
Care Associates, LLC and is not contingent upon any number of Units
being tendered.
o The Purchasers are making the Offer for investment purposes and with
the intention of making a profit from the ownership of the Units. In
establishing the purchase price of $475 per Unit, the Purchasers are
motivated to establish the lowest price which might be acceptable to
Unit holders consistent with the Purchasers' objectives. There is no
public market for the Units, and neither the Unit holders nor the
1
Purchasers have any accurate means for determining the actual
present value of the Units. Although there can be no certainty as to
the actual present value of the Units, the Purchasers have
estimated, solely for the purposes of determining an acceptable
Offer price, that the Partnership could have an estimated
liquidation value of approximately $657 per Unit. It should be
noted, however, that the Purchasers have not made an independent
appraisal of the Units or the Partnership's properties, and are not
qualified to appraise real estate. Furthermore, there can be no
assurance as to the timing or amount of any future Partnership
distributions, and there cannot be any assurance that the
Purchasers' estimate accurately reflects an approximate value of the
Units or that the actual amounts which may be realized by holders
for the Units may not vary substantially from this estimate.
o The Depositary, MacKenzie Patterson Fuller, Inc., is an affiliate of
certain of the Purchasers. No independent party will hold securities
tendered until the offer closes and payment is made. Because there
is no independent intermediary to hold the Purchasers' funds and
tendered securities, the Purchasers may have access to the
securities before all conditions to the Offer have been satisfied
and selling Unit holders have been paid.
THE OFFER TO PURCHASE IS NOT CONDITIONED UPON ANY MINIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS BEING
TENDERED. A UNIT HOLDER MAY TENDER ANY OR ALL UNITS OWNED BY SUCH UNIT HOLDER.
The Purchasers expressly reserve the right, in their sole discretion, at any
time and from time to time, (i) to extend the period of time during which the
Offer is open and thereby delay acceptance for payment of, and the payment for,
any Units, (ii) upon the occurrence of any of the conditions specified in
Section 13 of this Offer to Purchase, to terminate the Offer and not accept for
payment any Units, and (iii) to amend the Offer in any respect. Notice of any
such extension, termination, or amendment will promptly be disseminated to Unit
holders in a manner reasonably designed to inform Unit holders of such change in
compliance with Rule 14d-4(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"Exchange Act"). In the case of an extension of the Offer, such extension will
be followed by a press release or public announcement which will be issued no
later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the next business day after the scheduled
Expiration Date, in accordance with Rule 14e-1(d) under the Exchange Act.
If you have already tendered your Units to Care Associates, LLC ("Care
Associates") pursuant to its Offer to Purchase, dated May 26, 2005 (the "Care
Associates Offer"), and you wish to tender your Units pursuant to our Offer
instead, then (i) you or your broker should notify Care Associates in writing
before the expiration of the Care Associates Offer, which is June 23, 2005
(unless otherwise extended by Care Associates), at Care Associates' address
listed in the Care Associates Offer, which notice must include your name, the
number of Units to be withdrawn and the name in which the Units you tendered to
Care Associates are registered, and (ii) once your Units have been withdrawn
from the Care Associates Offer, you, or your broker, dealer, commercial bank,
trust company or other nominee, should complete and submit the Transmittal
Letter for this Offer. For the convenience of Unit Holders who have tendered any
Units in the Care Associates Offer, we have enclosed a GREEN form of Notice of
Withdrawal from the Care Associates Offer with the Offer to Purchase. Unit
Holders wishing to withdraw Units tendered in the Care Associates Offer should
properly complete the GREEN Notice of Withdrawal and deliver it to:

SUMMARY TERM SHEET
The Purchasers are offering to purchase up to 15,000 Units for $475 per Unit in
cash. The following are some of the questions that you, as a Unit holder of the
Partnership, may have and answers to those questions. The information in this
summary is not complete, and we urge you to carefully read the remainder of this
Offer to Purchase and the accompanying Letter of Transmittal.
WHO IS OFFERING TO BUY MY SECURITIES?
The offer to purchase your Units is being made jointly by MP VALUE FUND 8, LLC;
MPF FLAGSHIP FUND 10, LLC; MPF - NY 2005, LLC; MP FALCON FUND, LLC; MPF DEWAAY
PREMIER FUND 2, LLC; MACKENZIE PATTERSON SPECIAL FUND 6, LLC; MACKENZIE
PATTERSON SPECIAL FUND 6A, LLC; MACKENZIE PATTERSON SPECIAL FUND 7, LLC;
ACCELERATED HIGH YIELD INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS, LTD., L.P.; MACKENZIE PATTERSON
SPECIAL FUND 5, LLC; MP VALUE FUND 6, LLC; MP VALUE FUND 7, LLC; MPF FLAGSHIP
FUND 9, LLC; MPF DEWAAY PREMIER FUND, LLC; MACKENZIE SPECIFIED INCOME FUND,
L.P.; MPF Special Fund 8, LLC; ACCELERATED HIGH YIELD INSTITUTIONAL FUND, LTD.,
L.P. Each of the entity Purchasers is a real estate investment fund managed or
advised by MacKenzie Patterson Fuller, Inc., a private, independent real estate
investment firm. None of these entities is affiliated with the Partnership or
its General Partner.
WHAT ARE THE CLASSES AND AMOUNTS OF SECURITIES SOUGHT IN THE OFFER?
We are seeking to purchase 15,000 Units of limited partnership interest, which
are the "Units" issued to investors in the Partnership.
HOW MUCH ARE YOU OFFERING TO PAY AND WHAT IS THE FORM OF PAYMENT?
We are offering to pay $475 per Unit, net to you in cash, less the amount of any
distributions declared or made with respect to the Units between June 17, 2005
and the date the Offer expires. The Offer price would be reduced by the amount
of distributions made or declared prior to the Expiration Date. Any
distributions made or declared after the Expiration Date would, by the terms of
the Offer and as set forth in the Letter of Transmittal, be assigned by
tendering Unit holders to the Purchasers. If you tender your Units to us in the
Offer, you will not have to pay brokerage fees or similar expenses.
DO YOU HAVE THE FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO MAKE PAYMENT?
If the total amount of Units sought is purchased, the Purchasers' capital
commitment will be approximately $7,125,000.00. The Purchasers have an aggregate
of approximately $31 million in total assets, and more than $19 million in total
net assets at their disposal to fund payment to selling Unit holders. The
Purchasers currently have sufficient funded capital to fund all of their
commitments under this Offer and all other tender offers they may be presently
making.
IS THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE BIDDERS RELEVANT TO MY DECISION ON WHETHER TO
TENDER IN THE OFFER?
Because this is a cash offer that is not conditioned on financing being
available, and the Purchasers have more than adequate resources and no intention
to take control of the Partnership, other information concerning the Purchasers'
financial condition would seem to have little relevance to your decision.
HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO DECIDE WHETHER TO TENDER IN THE OFFER?
You will have at least until 12:00 midnight, Pacific Time, on July 17, 2005, to
decide whether to tender your Units in the Offer.
5
WILL ALL OF THE UNITS I TENDER BE ACCEPTED BY THE PURCHASERS?
The Purchasers desire to purchase up to 15,000 Units. We will purchase all Units
validly tendered and not properly withdrawn on or prior to the Expiration Date,
upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer. See "Tender Offer --
Section 2. Acceptance for Payment and Payment for Units."
CAN THE OFFER BE EXTENDED AND UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES?
The Offer can be extended in our discretion.
HOW WILL I BE NOTIFIED IF THE OFFER IS EXTENDED?
If we extend the offer, we will make a public announcement of the extension, not
later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the day after the day on which the Offer
was scheduled to expire.
WHAT ARE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CONDITIONS TO THE OFFER?
There are no conditions to the offer based on a minimum number of Units
tendered, the availability of financing, or the success of the offer. However,
we may not be obligated to purchase any Units if certain conditions occur, such
as legal or government actions which would prohibit the purchase. Furthermore,
we are not obligated to purchase any Units which are validly tendered if, among
other things, there is a material adverse change in the Partnership or its
business. Please see the discussion in Section 13, Conditions of the Offer, for
a description of all conditions.
WHEN WILL YOU PAY ME FOR THE UNITS I TENDER?
Upon the Expiration of the Offer and our acceptance of the Units you tender, we
will pay you upon confirmation that the general partner will recognize the
change of address for distributions and correspondence on the Units.
HOW DO I TENDER MY UNITS?
To tender your Units, you must deliver a completed Letter of Transmittal
(printed on purple paper), to the Depositary at: MacKenzie Patterson Fuller,
Inc., 1640 School Street, Moraga, California 94556 (Telephone: 800-854-8357;
Facsimile Transmission: 925-631-9119), no later than the time the Offer expires.
UNTIL WHAT TIME CAN I WITHDRAW PREVIOUSLY TENDERED UNITS?
You can withdraw previously tendered Units at any time until the Offer has
expired and, if we have not agreed to accept your Units for payment by August
16, 2005, you can withdraw them at any time after such time until we do accept
your Units for payment.
HOW DO I WITHDRAW PREVIOUSLY TENDERED UNITS?
To withdraw Units, you must deliver a written notice of withdrawal, or a
facsimile of one, with the required information to the Depositary while you
still have the right to withdraw the Units.
WHAT DO I DO IF I HAVE ALREADY TENDERED MY UNITS TO CARE ASSOCIATES, BUT WANT TO
PARTICIPATE IN THIS OFFER INSTEAD?
6
If you have already tendered your Units to Care Associates, LLC ("Care
Associates") pursuant to its Offer to Purchase, dated May 26, 2005 (the "Care
Associates Offer"), and you wish to tender your Units pursuant to our Offer
instead, then (i) you or your broker should notify Care Associates in writing
before the expiration of the Care Associates Offer, which is June 23, 2005
(unless otherwise extended by Care Associates), at Care Associates' address
listed in the Care Associates Offer, which notice must include your name, the
number of Units to be withdrawn and the name in which the Units you tendered to
Care Associates are registered, and (ii) once your Units have been withdrawn
from the Care Associates Offer, you, or your broker, dealer, commercial bank,
trust company or other nominee, should complete and submit the Transmittal
Letter for this Offer. For the convenience of Unit Holders who have tendered any
Units in the Care Associates Offer, we have enclosed a GREEN form of Notice of
Withdrawal from the Care Associates Offer with the Offer to Purchase. Unit
Holders wishing to withdraw Units tendered in the Care Associates Offer should
properly complete the GREEN Notice of Withdrawal and deliver it to:
THE COLBENT CORPORATION
P.O. Box 859208
Braintree, MA 02185-9208
Telephone: (781)843-1833 ext. 100
Facsimile: (781) 380-3388
For Overnight Delivery:
The Colbent Corporation
161 Bay State Drive
Braintree, MA 02184
on or before June 23, 2005.
WHAT DOES THE PARTNERSHIP'S GENERAL PARTNER THINK OF THE OFFER?
The Purchasers have not sought the approval or disapproval of the General
Partner. The General Partner may be expected to respond with the Partnership's
position on the offer in the next two weeks.
WILL THE PARTNERSHIP CONTINUE AS A PUBLIC COMPANY?
The Partnership reported 1,243 holders of its outstanding Units as of the date
of its most recent annual report. If the total number of Unit holders is below
300, the Partnership can elect to discontinue its status as a public reporting
company. Accordingly, it is possible that the Offer could result in the total
number of Unit holders falling below the 300 holder level. However, there has
never been a public trading market for the Units and none is expected to
develop, so the Partnership's status as a public company will not affect a
trading market in the Units. While the Partnership's Agreement of Limited
Partnership requires that all Unit holders be provided annual audited financial
statements, quarterly interim financial statements, and timely reports providing
other information regarding the operations and condition of the Partnership, a
change in the Partnership's status as a public company could reduce the
information available to Unit holders about the Partnership in the event the
information required by the Partnership Agreement is not as extensive as that
provided in reports required to be filed by public companies under applicable
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Further, such potential
deregistration would result in the loss of the other protections afforded by
registration.
7
IF I DECIDE NOT TO TENDER, HOW WILL THE OFFER AFFECT MY UNITS?
The Purchasers do not anticipate that Units held by non-tendering Unit holders
will be affected by the completion of the offer.
WHAT ARE THE PURCHASERS' FUTURE INTENTIONS CONCERNING THE PARTNERSHIP?
The Purchasers have no present intention to seek control of the Partnership or
to change the management or operations of the Partnership. The Purchasers do not
have any present intention to take action in connection with the liquidation of
the Partnership or with any extraordinary transaction concerning the Partnership
or its assets. Although the Purchasers do not have any present intention to take
any action with respect to management or control of the Partnership, the
Purchasers reserve the right, at an appropriate time, to exercise their rights
as limited partners to vote on matters subject to a limited partner vote,
including any vote affecting the sale of the Partnership's assets and the
liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership.
WHAT IS THE MARKET VALUE OF MY UNITS?
The Units do not have a readily ascertainable market value, and neither the Unit
holders nor the Purchasers have any accurate means for determining the actual
present value of the Units. According to the Partnership, "There is no public
market for units nor is it anticipated that any public market for units will
develop." (Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31,
2001). The Purchasers review of independent secondary market reporting
publications such as The Direct Investments Spectrum (formerly The Partnership
Spectrum) and The Stanger Report, reported no trading prices on secondary
markets during the 1st Quarter 2005 and no trading prices on secondary markets
in March/April 2005, respectively. The American Partnership Board, another
independent, third-party source, reported sales of Units at $278.92 per Unit in
June 7, 2005. The information published by these independent sources is believed
to be the product of their private market research and does not constitute the
comprehensive transaction reporting of a securities exchange. Accordingly, the
Purchasers do not know whether the foregoing information is accurate or
complete. Further, some of the Purchasers and some of their affiliates completed
a tender offer earlier this year for $150 per Unit pursuant to which they bought
423 Units. An affiliate of the general partner is currently offering to purchase
Units at $456 per Unit, subject, most significantly, to receiving 51% of the
Units. Although there can be no certainty as to the actual present value of the
Units, the Purchasers have estimated, solely for the purposes of determining an
acceptable Offer price, that the Partnership could have an estimated liquidation
value of approximately $657 per Unit, or higher. It should be noted, that the
Purchasers have not made an independent appraisal of the Units or the
Partnership's properties, and are not qualified to appraise real estate.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that this estimate accurately reflects an
approximate value of the Units or that the actual amounts which may be realized
by Unit holders for the may not vary substantially from this estimate.
TO WHOM CAN I TALK IF I HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TENDER OFFER?

To the Unit holders of CONSOLIDATED RESOURCES HEALTH CARE FUND II:
INTRODUCTION
The Purchasers hereby offer to purchase up to 15,000 Units at a purchase
price of $475 per Unit ("Offer Price"), less the amount of any distributions
declared or paid with respect to the Units between June 17, 2005, and the
Expiration Date, in cash, without interest, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in the Offer. The Purchasers are unaware of any
distributions declared or paid since June 17, 2005. Unit holders who tender
their Units will not be obligated to pay any Partnership transfer fees, or any
other fees, expenses or commissions in connection with the tender of Units. The
Purchasers will pay all such costs and all charges and expenses of the
Depositary, an affiliate of certain of the Purchasers, as depositary in
connection with the Offer.
For further information concerning the Purchasers, see Section 11 below
and Schedule I. None of the Purchasers or the Depositary is affiliated with the
Partnership or the Partnership's General Partner. The address of the
Partnership's principal executive offices is 1175 Peachtree Street, Suite 850,
Atlanta, GA 31106, and its phone number is (404) 873-1919.
Unit holders are urged to consider the following factors:
o The Offer will provide Unit holders with an opportunity to liquidate
their investment without the usual transaction costs associated with
market sales. Unit holders may have a more immediate need to use the
cash now tied up in an investment in the Units and may wish to sell
them to the Purchasers.
o The Offer Price is higher than the offer currently being made by
Care Associates, LLC and is not contingent upon any number of Units
being tendered.
o Unit holders who tender their Units will give up the opportunity to
participate in any future benefits from the ownership of Units,
including potential future distributions by the Partnership from
property dispositions or operations from future development, if any,
and the purchase price per Unit payable to a tendering Unit holder
by the Purchasers may be less than the total amount which might
otherwise be received by the Unit holder with respect to the Unit
over the remaining term of the Partnership.
o The Purchasers are making the Offer for investment purposes and with
the intention of making a profit from the ownership of the Units. In
establishing the purchase price of $475 per Unit, the Purchasers are
motivated to establish the lowest price which might be acceptable to
Unit holders consistent with the Purchasers' objectives. There is no
public market for the Units, and neither the Unit holders nor the
Purchasers have any accurate means for determining the actual
present value of the Units. Although there can be no certainty as to
the actual present value of the Units, the Purchasers have
estimated, solely for the purposes of determining an acceptable
Offer price, that the Partnership could have an estimated
liquidation value of approximately $657 per Unit. It should be
noted, however, that the Purchasers have not made an independent
appraisal of the Units or the Partnership's properties, and are not
qualified to appraise real estate. There can be no assurance as to
the timing or amount of any future Partnership distributions, and
there can be no assurance that the Purchasers' estimate accurately
reflects an approximate value of the Units or that the actual
amounts which may be realized by holders for the Units may not vary
substantially from this estimate.
o The Depositary, MacKenzie Patterson Fuller, Inc., is an affiliate of
certain of the Purchasers. No independent party will hold securities
tendered until the offer closes and payment is made. Because there
is no independent intermediary to hold the Purchasers' funds and
tendered securities, the Purchasers may have access to the
securities before all conditions to the Offer have been satisfied
and selling Unit holders have been paid.
Establishment of the Offer Price
The Purchasers have set the Offer Price at $475 per Unit, less the amount
of any distributions declared or made with respect to the Units between June 17,
2005 and the Expiration Date. In determining the Offer Price, the Purchasers
analyzed a number of quantitative and qualitative factors, including: (i) the
lack of a secondary market
9
for resales of the Units and the resulting lack of liquidity of an investment in
the Partnership; (ii) the estimated value of the Partnership's real estate
assets; and (iii) the costs to the Purchasers associated with acquiring the
Units.
The Partnership made the following statements in its Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001: "There is no public market
for units nor is it anticipated that any public market for units will develop."
The lack of any public market for the sale of Units means that Unit holders have
limited alternatives if they seek to sell their Units. As a result of such
limited alternatives for Unit holders, the Purchasers may not need to offer as
high a price for the Units as they would otherwise. On the other hand, the
Purchasers take a greater risk in establishing a purchase price as there is no
prevailing market price to be used for reference and the Purchasers themselves
will have limited liquidity for the Units upon consummation of the purchase. The
Purchasers review of independent secondary market reporting publications such as
The Direct Investments Spectrum (formerly The Partnership Spectrum) and The
Stanger Report, reported no trading prices on secondary markets during the 1st
Quarter 2005 and no trading prices on secondary markets in March/April 2005,
respectively. The American Partnership Board, another independent, third-party
source, reported sales of Units at $278.92 per Unit in June 7, 2005. The
information published by these independent sources is believed to be the product
of their private market research and does not constitute the comprehensive
transaction reporting of a securities exchange. Accordingly, the Purchasers do
not know whether the foregoing information is accurate or complete. Further,
some of the Purchasers and some of their affiliates completed a tender offer
earlier this year for $150 per Unit pursuant to which they bought 423 Units
(this offer was prior to the release of current information by the Partnership,
which substantially increased our valuation and confidence therein). An
affiliate of the general partner is currently offering to purchase Units at $456
per Unit, subject, most significantly, to receiving 51% of the Units.
The Purchasers are offering to purchase Units which are an illiquid
investment and are not offering to purchase the Partnership's underlying assets.
The Purchasers' valuation is based upon the sale of the assets of the
Partnership, but such assets may not be liquidated for an indefinite period of
time. Accordingly, the underlying asset value of the Partnership is only one
factor used by the Purchasers in arriving at the Offer Price. However, in the
absence of trading price information, the Purchasers estimate of the net asset
value of the Partnership may be relevant to Unit holders' review of the Offer
Price. Using publicly available information concerning the Partnership contained
in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2001 and the quarterly reports for the quarters ended March 31,
2002, June 30, 2002, and September 30, 2002, as well as the information
disclosed on the Form 8-K filed June 10, 2005 the Purchasers derived an
estimated net asset value for the Units. The Purchasers are not qualified as
real estate appraisers and have relied solely on publicly available information
in making their estimate of the value of the Partnership's assets. The
Purchasers estimated value of Partnership assets was calculated solely for
purposes of formulating their offer and cannot be relied upon as representing an
amount which might actually be realized upon a liquidation of the Partnership's
assets, whether now or at any time in the future.
In determining their estimated value of the Units, the Purchasers first
calculated the "Estimated Net Sales Value" of the Partnership's real property
investments. The Estimated Net Sales Value was determined by first determining
the net operating income ("NOI") for the Partnership's properties. The NOI was
calculated by subtracting from rental income the property operating expenses.
This NOI was then divided by am approximate 10.5% capitalization rate (the "Cap
Rate"). The result reduced by 3% to take into account the estimated closing
costs which would be incurred upon sale by the Partnership of the properties,
including brokerage commissions, title costs, surveys, appraisals, legal fees
and transfer taxes. The NOI and the rental income were obtained from the
Partnership's Form 8-K filed June 10, 2005 (available on the Commission's EDGAR
system, at its internet web site at www.sec.gov, and available for inspection at
the Commission's principal office in Washington, D.C.).
The Purchasers believe that the Cap Rate utilized is within a range of
capitalization rates currently employed in the marketplace for properties of
similar type, age, and quality. The utilization of different capitalization
rates, however, could also be appropriate. In this regard, Unit holders should
be aware that the use of lower capitalization rate would result in a higher
Estimated Net Sales Value.
To determine the Estimated Liquidation Value of the Partnership's assets,
the Purchaser added to the Estimated Net Sales Value of the Partnership's
properties the net current assets, as reported in the Partnership's most recent
Form 8-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, and calculated the amount of the
balance allocable to the Units. The resulting Estimated Liquidation Value of the
Partnership's assets per was approximately $657 per Unit. The Purchasers
emphasize that this value was calculated by them solely for purposes of
selecting an Offer Price. There can be no assurance as to the actual liquidation
value of Partnership assets or as to the amount or timing of
10
distributions of liquidation proceeds which may be received by Unit holders. The
Partnership has not announced any pending offer to purchase its assets.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the availability or timing of any
liquidation proceeds. Details on our analysis of the Estimated Valuation per
Unit based upon this information is given below:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gross valuation of partnership properties $ 10,171,855
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Less: Selling Costs at 3% (305,156)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Less: Mortgage Debt, accrued interest (3,028,188)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plus: Net Current Assets 3,020,000
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Estimated net valuation of your partnership $ 9,858,511
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Percentage of estimated net valuation allocated to holders of units 100%
based upon subordinated general partner participation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Estimated net valuation of units $ 9,858,511
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of units 15,000
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Estimated valuation per unit $ 657
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Offer Price represents the price at which the Purchasers are willing
to purchase Units. The Purchasers arrived at the $475 Offer Price by applying a
liquidity discount to their calculations of Estimated Liquidation Value of the
Partnership's assets, after deducting selling and liquidation costs. The
Purchasers apply such a discount with the intention of making a profit by
holding on to the Units until the Partnership is liquidated, hopefully at close
to the full Estimated Liquidation Value. No independent person has been retained
to evaluate or render any opinion with respect to the fairness of the Offer
Price and no representation is made by the Purchasers or any affiliate of the
Purchasers as to such fairness. Other measures of the value of the Units may be
relevant to Unit holders. Unit holders are urged to consider carefully all of
the information contained herein and consult with their own advisers, tax,
financial or otherwise, in evaluating the terms of the Offer before deciding
whether to tender Units.
The Offer is not made with any current view toward or plan or purpose of
acquiring Units in a series of successive and periodic offers. Nevertheless, the
Purchasers reserve the right to gauge the response to this solicitation, and, if
not successful in purchasing 15,000 Units pursuant to this Offer, may consider
future offers. Factors affecting the Purchasers' future interest in acquiring
additional Units include, but are not limited to, the relative success of the
current Offer, any increase or decrease in the availability of capital for
investment by the Purchasers and their investment fund affiliates, the current
diversification and performance of each affiliated fund's portfolio of real
estate interests, the development of any public market in the Units or actions
by unrelated parties to tender for or purchase Units, the status of and changes
and trends in the Partnership's operations, announcement of pending property
sales and the proposed terms of sales, and local and national real estate and
financial market developments and trends.
General Background Information
Certain information contained in this Offer to Purchase which relates to,
or represents, statements made by the Partnership or the General Partner, has
been derived from information provided in reports filed by the Partnership with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Tendering Unit holders will not be obligated to pay transfer fees,
brokerage fees, or commissions on the sale of the Units to the Purchasers
pursuant to the Offer. The Purchasers will pay all charges and expenses incurred
in connection with the Offer. The Purchasers desire to purchase up to 15,000
Units. We will purchase all Units validly tendered and not properly withdrawn on
or prior to the Expiration Date, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of
the Offer. (See "Tender Offer -- Section 2. Acceptance for Payment and Payment
for Units.")
If, prior to the Expiration Date, the Purchasers increase the
consideration offered to Unit holders pursuant to the Offer, such increased
consideration will be paid with respect to all Units that are purchased pursuant
to the Offer, whether or not such Units were tendered prior to such increase in
consideration.
Unit holders are urged to read this Offer to Purchase and the accompanying
Letter of Transmittal carefully before deciding whether to tender their Units.

TENDER OFFER
Section 1. Terms of the Offer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of
the Offer, the Purchasers will accept for payment and pay for Units validly
tendered on or prior to the Expiration Date and not withdrawn in accordance with
Section 4 of this Offer to Purchase. The term "Expiration Date" shall mean 12:00
midnight, Pacific Time, on July 17, 2005, unless and until the Purchasers shall
have extended the period of time for which the Offer is open, in which event the
term "Expiration Date" shall mean the latest time and date on which the Offer,
as so extended by the Purchasers, shall expire.
The Offer is conditioned on satisfaction of certain conditions. See
Section 13, which sets forth in full the conditions of the Offer. The Purchasers
reserve the right (but shall not be obligated), in their sole discretion and for
any reason, to waive any or all of such conditions. If, by the Expiration Date,
any or all of such conditions have not been satisfied or waived, the Purchasers
reserve the right (but shall not be obligated) to (i) decline to purchase any of
the Units tendered, terminate the Offer and return all tendered Units to
tendering Unit holders, (ii) waive all the unsatisfied conditions and, subject
to complying with applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, purchase
all Units validly tendered, (iii) extend the Offer and, subject to the right of
Unit holders to withdraw Units until the Expiration Date, retain the Units that
have been tendered during the period or periods for which the Offer is extended
or (iv) to amend the Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the expiration
of the Offer, if all conditions are either satisfied or waived, the Purchasers
will promptly pay for all validly tendered Units upon confirmation that the
general partner will recognize the change of address for distributions and
correspondence on the Units, and the Purchasers do not intend to imply that the
foregoing rights of the Purchasers would permit the Purchasers to delay payment
for validly tendered Units following expiration.
The Purchasers do not anticipate and have no reason to believe that any
condition or event will occur that would prevent the Purchasers from purchasing
tendered Units as offered herein.
Section 2. Acceptance for Payment and Payment for Units. Upon the terms and
subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or
amended, the terms and conditions of any extension or amendment), the Purchasers
will accept for payment, and will pay for, Units validly tendered and not
withdrawn in accordance with Section 4, promptly following the Expiration Date
and upon confirmation that the general partner will recognize the change of
address for distributions and correspondence on the Units. In all cases, payment
for Units purchased pursuant to the Offer will be made only after timely receipt
by the Depositary of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of
Transmittal (or facsimile thereof) and any other documents required by the
Letter of Transmittal.
The Purchasers desire to purchase up to 15,000 Units. We will purchase all
Units validly tendered and not properly withdrawn on or prior to the Expiration
Date, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.
For purposes of the Offer, the Purchasers shall be deemed to have accepted
for payment (and thereby purchased) tendered Units when, as and if the
Purchasers give oral or written notice to the Depositary of the Purchasers'
acceptance for payment of such Units pursuant to the Offer. Upon the terms and
subject to the conditions of the Offer, payment for Units purchased pursuant to
the Offer will in all cases be made by deposit of the Offer Price with the
Depositary, which will act as agent for the tendering Unit holders for the
purpose of receiving payment from the Purchasers and transmitting payment to
tendering Unit holders.
Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the Offer Price by reason
of any delay in making such payment.
If any tendered Units are not purchased for any reason, the Letter of
Transmittal with respect to such Units not purchased will be of no force or
effect. If, for any reason whatsoever, acceptance for payment of, or payment
for, any Units tendered pursuant to the Offer is delayed or the Purchasers are
unable to accept for payment, purchase or pay for Units tendered pursuant to the
Offer, then, without prejudice to the Purchasers' rights under Section 13, the
Depositary may, nevertheless, on behalf of the Purchasers, retain tendered Units
and such Units may not be withdrawn (but subject to compliance with Rule
14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, which requires that the Purchasers pay the
consideration offered or return the Units deposited by or on behalf of the Unit
holder promptly after the termination or withdrawal of a tender offer), except
to the extent that the tendering Unit holders are entitled to withdrawal rights
as described in Section 4.
If, prior to the Expiration Date, the Purchasers shall increase the
consideration offered to Unit holders
12
pursuant to the Offer, such increased consideration shall be paid for all Units
accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer, whether or not such Units were
tendered prior to such increase.
Section 3. Procedures for Tendering Units.
Valid Tender. For Units to be validly tendered pursuant to the Offer, a properly
completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (a copy of which is enclosed
with this Offer to Purchase, printed on purple paper) with any other documents
required by the Letter of Transmittal must be received by the Depositary at its
address set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase on or prior to the
Expiration Date. A Unit holder may tender any or all Units owned by such Unit
holder.
In order for a tendering Unit holder to participate in the Offer, Units must be
validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date, which is 12:00
midnight, Pacific Time, on July 17, 2005, or such date to which the Offer may be
extended.
The method of delivery of the Letter of Transmittal and all other required
documents is at the option and risk of the tendering Unit holder and delivery
will be deemed made only when actually received by the Depositary.
Backup Federal Income Tax Withholding. To prevent the possible application of
31% backup federal income tax withholding with respect to payment of the Offer
Price for Units purchased pursuant to the Offer, a tendering Unit holder must
provide the Depositary with such Unit holder's correct taxpayer identification
number and make certain certifications that such Unit holder is not subject to
backup federal income tax withholding. Each tendering Unit holder must insert in
the Letter of Transmittal the Unit holder's taxpayer identification number or
social security number in the space provided on the front of the Letter of
Transmittal. The Letter of Transmittal also includes a substitute Form W-9,
which contains the certifications referred to above. (See the Instructions to
the Letter of Transmittal.)
FIRPTA Withholding. To prevent the withholding of federal income tax in an
amount equal to 10% of the sum of the Offer Price plus the amount of Partnership
liabilities allocable to each Unit tendered, each Unit holder must complete the
FIRPTA Affidavit included in the Letter of Transmittal certifying such Unit
holder's taxpayer identification number and address and that the Unit holder is
not a foreign person. (See the Instructions to the Letter of Transmittal and
"Section 6. Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences.")
Other Requirements. By executing a Letter of Transmittal as set forth above, a
tendering Unit holder irrevocably appoints the designees of the Purchasers as
such Unit holder's proxies, in the manner set forth in the Letter of
Transmittal, each with full power of substitution, to the full extent of such
Unit holder's rights with respect to the Units tendered by such Unit holder and
accepted for payment by the Purchasers. Such appointment will be effective when,
and only to the extent that, the Purchasers accept such Units for payment. Upon
such acceptance for payment, all prior proxies given by such Unit holder with
respect to such Units will, without further action, be revoked, and no
subsequent proxies may be given (and if given will not be effective). The
designees of the Purchasers will, with respect to such Units, be empowered to
exercise all voting and other rights of such Unit holder as they in their sole
discretion may deem proper at any meeting of Unit holders, by written consent or
otherwise. In addition, by executing a Letter of Transmittal, a Unit holder also
assigns to the Purchasers all of the Unit holder's rights to receive
distributions from the Partnership with respect to Units which are accepted for
payment and purchased pursuant to the Offer, other than those distributions
declared or paid during the period commencing on the Offer Date and terminating
on the Expiration Date.
Determination of Validity; Rejection of Units; Waiver of Defects; No Obligation
to Give Notice of Defects. All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility
(including time of receipt), and acceptance for payment of any tender of Units
pursuant to the procedures described above will be determined by the Purchasers,
in their sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding. The
Purchasers reserve the absolute right to reject any or all tenders if not in
proper form or if the acceptance of, or payment for, the absolute right to
reject any or all tenders if not in proper form or if the acceptance of, or
payment for, the Units tendered may, in the opinion of the Purchasers' counsel,
be unlawful. The Purchasers also reserve the right to waive any defect or
irregularity in any tender with respect to any particular Units of any
particular Unit holder, and the Purchasers' interpretation of the terms and
conditions of the Offer (including the Letter of Transmittal and the
Instructions thereto) will be final and binding. Neither the Purchasers, the
Depositary, nor any other person will be under any duty to give notification of
13
any defects or irregularities in the tender of any Units or will incur any
liability for failure to give any such notification.
A tender of Units pursuant to any of the procedures described above will
constitute a binding agreement between the tendering Unit holder and the
Purchasers upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, including
the tendering Unit holder's representation and warranty that (i) such Unit
holder owns the Units being tendered within the meaning of Rule 14e-4 under the
Exchange Act and (ii) the tender of such Unit complies with Rule 14e-4. Rule
14e-4 requires, in general, that a tendering security holder actually be able to
deliver the security subject to the tender offer, and is of concern particularly
to any Unit holders who have granted options to sell or purchase the Units, hold
option rights to acquire such securities, maintain "short" positions in the
Units (i.e., have borrowed the Units) or have loaned the Units to a short
seller. Because of the nature of limited partnership interests, the Purchasers
believe it is unlikely that any option trading or short selling activity exists
with respect to the Units. In any event, a Unit holder will be deemed to tender
Units in compliance with Rule 14e-4 and the Offer if the holder is the record
owner of the Units and the holder (i) delivers the Units pursuant to the terms
of the Offer, (ii) causes such delivery to be made, (iii) guarantees such
delivery, (iv) causes a guaranty of such delivery, or (v) uses any other method
permitted in the Offer (such as facsimile delivery of the Transmittal Letter).
Section 4. Withdrawal Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4,
all tenders of Units pursuant to the Offer are irrevocable, provided that Units
tendered pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the
Expiration Date and, unless theretofore accepted for payment as provided in this
Offer to Purchase, may also be withdrawn at any time on or after August 16,
2005.
For withdrawal to be effective a written or facsimile transmission notice
of withdrawal must be timely received by the Depositary at the address or the
facsimile number set forth in the attached Letter of Transmittal. Any such
notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the person who tendered the Units
to be withdrawn and must be signed by the person(s) who signed the Letter of
Transmittal in the same manner as the Letter of Transmittal was signed.
If purchase of, or payment for, Units is delayed for any reason or if the
Purchasers are unable to purchase or pay for Units for any reason, then, without
prejudice to the Purchasers' rights under the Offer, tendered Units may be
retained by the Depositary on behalf of the Purchasers and may not be withdrawn
except to the extent that tendering Unit holders are entitled to withdrawal
rights as set forth in this Section 4, subject to Rule 14e-1(c) under the
Exchange Act, which provides that no person who makes a tender offer shall fail
to pay the consideration offered or return the securities deposited by or on
behalf of security holders promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the
tender offer.
All questions as to the form and validity (including time of receipt) of
notices of withdrawal will be determined by the Purchasers, in their sole
discretion, which determination shall be final and binding. Neither the
Purchasers, nor the Depositary, nor any other person will be under any duty to
give notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal
or will incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.
Any Units properly withdrawn will be deemed not to be validly tendered for
purposes of the Offer. Withdrawn Units may be re-tendered, however, by following
the procedures described in Section 3 at any time prior to the Expiration Date.
Section 5. Extension of Tender Period; Termination; Amendment. The Purchasers
expressly reserve the right, in their sole discretion, at any time and from time
to time, (i) to extend the period of time during which the Offer is open and
thereby delay acceptance for payment of, and the payment for, any Units by
giving oral or written notice of such extension to the Depositary, (ii) upon the
occurrence or failure to occur of any of the conditions specified in Section 13,
to delay the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, any Units, or to
terminate the Offer and not accept for payment any Units by giving oral or
written notice of such termination to the Depositary, and (iii) to amend the
Offer in any respect (including, without limitation, by increasing or decreasing
the consideration offered or the number of Units being sought in the Offer or
both or changing the type of consideration) by giving oral or written notice of
such amendment to the Depositary. Any extension, termination, or amendment will
be followed as promptly as practicable by public announcement, the announcement
in the case of an extension to be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time,
on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date, in
accordance with the public announcement requirement of Rule 14d-4(c) under the
Exchange Act. Without limiting the manner in which the Purchasers may choose to
make any public announcement, except as provided by applicable law
14
(including Rule 14d-4(c) under the Exchange Act), the Purchasers will have no
obligation to publish, advertise, or otherwise communicate any such public
announcement, other than by issuing a press release. The Purchasers may also be
required by applicable law to disseminate to Unit holders certain information
concerning the extensions of the Offer and any material changes in the terms of
the Offer. The Purchasers will not provide a subsequent offering period
following the Expiration Date.
If the Purchasers extend the Offer, or if the Purchasers (whether before
or after its acceptance for payment of Units) are delayed in their payment for
Units or are unable to pay for Units pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then,
without prejudice to the Purchasers' rights under the Offer, the Depositary may
retain tendered Units on behalf of the Purchasers, and such Units may be
withdrawn to the extent tendering Unit holders are entitled to withdrawal rights
as described in Section 4 (generally, if notice of withdrawal is given to the
Depository prior to the Expiration Date). However, the ability of the Purchasers
to delay payment for Units that the Purchasers have accepted for payment is
limited by Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, which requires that the Purchasers
pay the consideration offered or return the securities deposited by or on behalf
of holders of securities promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the
Offer, except that the Purchasers may delay payment until they receive
confirmation that the general partner will recognize the change of address for
distributions and correspondence on the Units.
If the Purchasers make a material change in the terms of the Offer or the
information concerning the Offer or waive a material condition of the Offer, the
Purchasers will extend the Offer to the extent required by Rules 14d-4(c),
14d-6(d) and 14e-1 under the Exchange Act. The minimum period during which an
offer must remain open following a material change in the terms of the offer or
information concerning the offer, other than a change in price or a change in
percentage of securities sought, will depend upon the facts and circumstances,
including the relative materiality of the change in the terms or information.
With respect to a change in price or a change in percentage of securities sought
(other than an increase of not more than 2% of the securities sought), however,
a minimum ten business day period is generally required to allow for adequate
dissemination to security holders and for investor response. As used in this
Offer to Purchase, "business day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or
a federal holiday, and consists of the time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00
midnight, Pacific Time.
Section 6. Material Federal Income Tax Consequences. THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX
DISCUSSION SET FORTH BELOW DOES NOT PURPORT TO ADDRESS ALL ASPECTS OF TAXATION
THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO A PARTICULAR UNIT HOLDER. For example, this discussion
does not address the effect of any applicable foreign, state, local or other tax
laws other than federal income tax laws. Certain Unit holders (including trusts,
foreign persons, tax-exempt organizations or corporations subject to special
rules, such as life insurance companies or S corporations) may be subject to
special rules not discussed below. This discussion is based on the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), existing regulations, court
decisions and Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") rulings and other pronouncements.
EACH UNIT HOLDER TENDERING UNITS SHOULD CONSULT SUCH UNIT HOLDER'S OWN TAX
ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH UNIT HOLDER OF ACCEPTING
THE OFFER, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION OF THE ALTERNATIVE MINIMUM TAX AND FEDERAL,
FOREIGN, STATE, LOCAL AND OTHER TAX LAWS.
The following discussion is based on the assumption that the Partnership
is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes and is not a
"publicly traded partnership" as that term is defined in the Code. Certain
partnerships are classified as "publicly traded partnerships" and, subject to
certain exceptions, are taxed as corporations for federal income tax purposes. A
partnership is a publicly traded partnership if the partnership interests are
traded on an established securities market or readily tradable on a secondary
market (or the substantial equivalent of a secondary market). The Units are not
traded on an established securities market. In the unlikely event that the
Partnership becomes a "publicly traded partnership" and is not excepted from
federal income tax, there would be several adverse tax consequences to the Unit
holders. For instance, the Partnership would be regarded as having transferred
all of its assets (subject to all of its liabilities) to a newly-formed
corporation in exchange for stock which would be deemed distributed to the Unit
holders in liquidation of their interests in the Partnership. In addition, if
the Partnership is deemed to be a "publicly traded partnership," then special
rules under Code Section 469 govern the treatment of losses and income of the
Partnership.
Gain or Loss. A taxable Unit holder will recognize a gain or loss on the sale of
such Unit holder's Units in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the
amount realized by such Unit holder on the sale and (ii) such Unit holder's
adjusted tax basis in the Units sold. The amount realized by a Unit holder will
include the Unit holder's share of the Partnership's liabilities, if any (as
determined under Code section 752 and the regulations thereunder).
15
If the Unit holder reports a loss on the sale, such loss generally could not be
currently deducted by such Unit holder except against such Unit holder's capital
gains from other investments. In addition, such loss would be treated as a
passive activity loss. (See "Suspended Passive Activity Losses" below.)
The adjusted tax basis in the Units of a Unit holder will depend upon
individual circumstances. (See also "Partnership Allocations in Year of Sale"
below.) Each Unit holder who plans to tender hereunder should consult with the
Unit holder's own tax advisor as to the Unit holder's adjusted tax basis in the
Unit holder's Units and the resulting tax consequences of a sale.
If any portion of the amount realized by a Unit holder is attributable to
such Unit holder's share of "unrealized receivables" or "substantially
appreciated inventory items" as defined in Code section 751, a corresponding
portion of such Unit holder's gain or loss will be treated as ordinary gain or
loss. It is possible that the basis allocation rules of Code Section 751 may
result in a Unit holder's recognizing ordinary income with respect to the
portion of the Unit holder's amount realized on the sale of a Unit that is
attributable to such items while recognizing a capital loss with respect to the
remainder of the Unit.
A tax-exempt Unit holder (other than an organization described in Code
Section 501(c)(7) (social club), 501(c)(9) (voluntary employee benefit
association), 501(c)(17) (supplementary unemployment benefit trust), or
501(c)(20) (qualified group legal services plan)) should not be required to
recognize unrelated trade or business income upon the sale of its Units pursuant
to the Offer, assuming that such Unit holder does not hold its Units as a
"dealer" and has not acquired such Units with debt financed proceeds.
Partnership Allocations in Year of Sale. A tendering Unit holder will be
allocated the Unit holder's pro rata share of the annual taxable income and
losses from the Partnership with respect to the Units sold for the period
through the date of sale, even though such Unit holder will assign to the
Purchasers their rights to receive certain cash distributions with respect to
such Units. Such allocations and any Partnership distributions for such period
would affect a Unit holder's adjusted tax basis in the tendered Units and,
therefore, the amount of gain or loss recognized by the Unit holder on the sale
of the Units.
Possible Tax Termination. The Code provides that if 50% or more of the capital
and profits interests in a partnership are sold or exchanged within a single
12-month period, such partnership generally will terminate for federal income
tax purposes. It is possible that the Partnership could terminate for federal
income tax purposes as a result of consummation of the Offer (although the
Partnership Agreement prevents transfers of Units that would cause such a
termination). A tax termination of the Partnership could have an effect on a
corporate or other non-individual Unit holder whose tax year is not the calendar
year, as such a Unit holder might recognize more than one year's Partnership tax
items in one tax return, thus accelerating by a fraction of a year the effects
from such items.
Suspended "Passive Activity Losses". A Unit holder who sells all of the Unit
holder's Units would be able to deduct "suspended" passive activity losses from
the Partnership, if any, in the year of sale free of the passive activity loss
limitation. As a limited partner of the Partnership, which was engaged in real
estate activities, the ability of a Unit holder, who or which is subject to the
passive activity loss rules, to claim tax losses from the Partnership was
limited. Upon sale of all of the Unit holder's Units, such Unit holder would be
able to use any "suspended" passive activity losses first against gain, if any,
on sale of the Unit holder's Units and then against income from any other
source.
Foreign Unit holders. Gain realized by a foreign Unit holder on a sale of a Unit
pursuant to the Offer will be subject to federal income tax. Under Section 1445
of the Code, the transferee of a partnership interest held by a foreign person
is generally required to deduct and withhold a tax equal to 10% of the amount
realized on the disposition. The Purchasers will withhold 10% of the amount
realized by a tendering Unit holder from the purchase price payment to be made
to such Unit holder unless the Unit holder properly completes and signs the
FIRPTA Affidavit included as part of the Letter of Transmittal certifying the
Unit holder's TIN, that such Unit holder is not a foreign person and the Unit
holder's address. Amounts withheld would be creditable against a foreign Unit
holder's federal income tax liability and, if in excess thereof, a refund could
be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service by filing a U.S. income tax
return.
16
Section 7. Effects of the Offer.
Limitations on Resales. The Purchasers do not believe the provisions of the
Partnership Agreement should restrict transfers of Units pursuant to the Offer,
although no more than 50% of the Units may be transferred in any 12-month
period. This limitation will not affect the tender of Units under this Offer
because, subject to the terms of the Offer, we will pay for the Units upon
confirmation that the general partner will recognize the change of address for
distributions and correspondence on the Units, and, under the terms of the
Letter of Transmittal, we will take a power of attorney over your Units that
will permit us to change the address to which distributions are sent. We will
then wait to transfer the Units tendered until the Partnership can effect the
transfer of record title in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
Effect on Trading Market. If a substantial number of Units are purchased
pursuant to the Offer the result would be a reduction in the number of Unit
holders. Reducing the number of security holders in certain kinds of equity
securities might be expected to result in a reduction in the liquidity and
volume of activity in the trading market for the security. However, there is no
established public trading market for the Units and none is expected to develop.
Therefore, the Purchasers do not believe a reduction in the number of Unit
holders will materially further restrict the Unit holders' ability to find
purchasers for their Units through secondary market transactions.
Voting Power of Purchasers. If the Purchasers acquire a significant number of
the Units sought hereunder could give the Purchasers a controlling voting
interest in matters subject to a limited partner vote. The Partnership does not
hold annual or regular meetings to elect directors, and does not have a
representative board of directors overseeing management. Votes of Unit holders
would only be solicited, if ever, for matters affecting the fundamental
structure of the Partnership, such as the sale of the properties and termination
of the Partnership, and the affirmative vote of more than 50% of the outstanding
Units (not a mere quorum) is required to effect action. The Purchasers and their
affiliates do not intend to call for any such vote in the foreseeable future. A
Unit holder who tenders Units to the Purchasers grants a proxy to the Purchasers
as of the date of acceptance of the tender, granting the Purchasers the right to
vote such Units it their sole discretion as to any matters for which the
Partnership has established a record date prior to the time such. Units are
transferred by the Partnership to the Purchasers. The Purchasers reserve the
right to exercise any and all rights they might hold in the event that any vote
is called by the General Partner, or if, in the future, changes in circumstances
would dictate that they or other limited partners exercise their right to call a
vote.
Other Potential Effects. The Units are registered under the Exchange Act, which
requires, among other things that the Partnership furnish certain information to
its Unit holders and to the Commission and comply with the Commission's proxy
rules in connection with meetings of, and solicitation of consents from, Unit
holders. Registration and reporting requirements could be terminated by the
Partnership if the number of record holders falls below 300, or below 500 if the
Partnership's total assets are below $10 million for three consecutive preceding
fiscal years. The Partnership reported a total of 1,243 limited partners as of
its most recent fiscal year end, but the Purchasers are offering to purchase up
to 15,000 Units. Accordingly, it is possible that the Offer could result in the
total number of Unit holders falling below the foregoing 300 holder level. As
disclosed by the Partnership in its public reports, however, there has never
been a public trading market for the Units and none is expected to develop, so
the Partnership's status as a public company will not affect a trading market in
the Units. While the Partnership's Agreement of Limited Partnership requires
that all Unit holders be provided annual audited financial statements, quarterly
interim financial statements and timely reports providing other information
regarding the operations and condition of the Partnership, a change in the
Partnership's status as a public company could reduce the information available
to Unit holders about the Partnership in the event the information required by
the Partnership Agreement is not as extensive as that provided in reports
required to be filed by public companies under applicable rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Section 8. Future Plans. Following the completion of the Offer, the Purchasers,
or their affiliates, may acquire additional Units. Any such acquisitions may be
made through private purchases, one or more future tender offers or by any other
means deemed advisable or appropriate. Any such acquisitions may be at a
consideration higher or lower than the consideration to be paid for the Units
purchased pursuant to the Offer. The Purchasers are seeking to purchase a total
of 15,000 Units. If the Purchasers acquire fewer than 15,000 Units pursuant to
the Offer, the Purchasers may seek to make further purchases on the open market
at prevailing prices, or solicit Units pursuant to one or more future tender
offers at the same price, a higher price or, if the Partnership's circumstances
change, at a lower price. Alternatively, the Purchasers may discontinue any
further purchases of Units after termination of the Offer, regardless of the
number of Units purchased. The Offer is not made with any current view toward or
plan or
17
purpose of acquiring Units in a series of successive and periodic offers.
Nevertheless, as noted above, the Purchasers reserve the right to gauge the
response to this solicitation, and, if not successful in purchasing 15,000 Units
in this Offer, may consider future offers. Factors affecting the Purchasers'
future interest in acquiring additional Units include, but are not limited to,
the relative success of the current Offer, any increase or decrease in the
availability of capital for investment by the Purchasers and their investment
fund affiliates, the current diversification and performance of each affiliated
fund's portfolio of real estate interests, the development of any public market
in the Units or actions by unrelated parties to tender for or purchase Units,
the status of and changes and trends in the Partnership's operations,
announcement of pending property sales and the proposed terms of sales, and
local and national real estate and financial market developments and trends.
The Purchasers are acquiring the Units pursuant to the Offer solely for
investment purposes. The Purchasers have no present intention to seek control of
the Partnership or to change the management or operations of the Partnership.
The Purchasers do not have any present intention to take any action in
connection with the ongoing liquidation of the Partnership. The Purchasers
nevertheless reserve the right, at an appropriate time, to exercise their rights
as limited partners to vote on matters subject to a limited partner vote,
including, but not limited to, any vote to affecting the sale of the
Partnership's properties and the liquidation and dissolution of the Partnership.
Except as expressly set forth herein, the Purchasers have no present intention
to seek control of the Partnership, to cause the Partnership to engage in any
extraordinary transaction, to cause any purchase, sale or transfer of a material
amount of the assets of any Partnership, to make any change in the distribution
policies, indebtedness or capitalization of any Partnership or to change the
structure, management or operations of the Partnership, the listing status of
the Units or the reporting requirements of the Partnership.
Section 9. The Business of the Partnership. For information about the
Partnership, please refer to the annual report prepared by the Partnership which
was sent to you earlier, particularly Item 2 of Form 10-K, the Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q, [Click Here and Type Any Other Filings of Relevance] and any other

www.sec.gov, and are available for inspection at the Commission's principal
office in Washington, D.C.
Section 10. Conflicts of Interest. The Depositary is affiliated with certain
Purchasers. Therefore, by virtue of this affiliation, the Depositary may have
inherent conflicts of interest in acting as Depositary for the Offer. The
Depositary's role is administrative only, however, and any conflict of interest
should not be deemed material to Unit holders.

finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws. .
Section 12. Source of Funds. The Purchasers expect that approximately
$7,125,000.00 would be required to purchase 15,000 Units, if tendered, and an
additional $20,000 may be required to pay related fees and expenses. The
Purchasers anticipate funding all of the purchase price and related expenses
through their existing capital and assets. The cash and liquid securities
necessary to complete the entire purchase are readily available and are
committed to that purpose. Accordingly, there are no financing arrangements to
fall through and no alternative financing plans.
Section 13. Conditions of the Offer. Notwithstanding any other term of the
Offer, the Purchasers shall not be required to accept for payment or to pay for
any Units tendered unless all authorizations or approvals of, or expirations of
waiting periods imposed by, any court, administrative agency or other
governmental authority necessary for the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Offer shall have been obtained or occurred on or before the
Expiration Date.
The Purchasers shall not be required to accept for payment or pay for any
Units and may terminate or amend the Offer as to such Units if, at any time on
or after the date of the Offer and before the Expiration Date, any of the
following conditions exists:
(a) a preliminary or permanent injunction or other order of any federal or

issued and shall remain in effect which (i) makes illegal, delays or otherwise
directly or indirectly restrains or prohibits the making of the Offer or the
acceptance for payment of or payment for any Units by the Purchasers, (ii)

otherwise on all matters properly presented to the Partnership's Unit holders,
(iii) requires divestiture by the Purchasers of any Units, (iv) causes any

(b) there shall be any action taken, or any statute, rule, regulation or
order proposed, enacted, enforced, promulgated, issued or deemed applicable to
the Offer by any federal or state court, government or governmental authority or
agency, other than the application of the waiting period provisions of the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, which will,
directly or indirectly, result in any of the consequences referred to in clauses
(i) through (v) of paragraph (a) above;
19
(c) any change or development shall have occurred or been threatened since

(d) there shall have occurred (i) any general suspension of trading in, or
limitation on prices for, securities on any national securities exchange or in
the over-the-counter market in the United States, (ii) a declaration of a

commencement of a war or armed hostilities or other national or international
calamity directly or indirectly involving the United States, (v) a material
change in United States or other currency exchange rates or a suspension of a
limitation on the markets thereof, or (vi) in the case of any of the foregoing
existing at the time of the commencement of the Offer, a material acceleration
or worsening thereof; or
(e) it shall have been publicly disclosed or the Purchasers shall have
otherwise learned that (i) more than fifty percent of the outstanding Units have
been or are proposed to be acquired by another person (including a "group"
within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or (ii) any person
or group that prior to such date had filed a Statement with the Commission
pursuant to Sections 13(d) or (g) of the Exchange Act has increased or proposes
to increase the number of Units beneficially owned by such person or group as
disclosed in such Statement by two percent or more of the outstanding Units.
The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of the Purchasers and
may be asserted by the Purchasers or may be waived by the Purchasers in whole or
in part at any time and from time to time prior to the Expiration Date in their
sole exercise of reasonable discretion, and the Offer will remain open for a
period of at least five business days following any such waiver of a material
condition. However, if we waive a certain condition for one tendering
Unitholder, we will waive that condition for all Unitholders tendering Units.
Any termination by the Purchasers concerning the events described above will be
final and binding upon all parties.
Section 14. Certain Legal Matters.
General. Except as set forth in this Section 14, the Purchasers are not aware of
any filings, approvals or other actions by any domestic or foreign governmental
or administrative agency that would be required prior to the acquisition of
Units by the Purchasers pursuant to the Offer. Should any such approval or other
action be required, it is the Purchasers' present intention that such additional
approval or action would be sought. While there is no present intent to delay
the purchase of Units tendered pursuant to the Offer pending receipt of any such
additional approval or the taking of any such action, there can be no assurance
that any such additional approval or action, if needed, would be obtained
without substantial conditions or that adverse consequences might not result to
the Partnership's business, or that certain parts of the Partnership's business
might not have to be disposed of or held separate or other substantial
conditions complied with in order to obtain such approval or action, any of
which could cause the Purchasers to elect to terminate the Offer without
purchasing Units thereunder. The Purchasers' obligation to purchase and pay for
Units is subject to certain conditions, including conditions related to the
legal matters discussed in this Section 14.
Antitrust. The Purchasers do not believe that the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, is applicable to the acquisition of Units
pursuant to the Offer.
Margin Requirements. The Units are not "margin securities" under the regulations
of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and, accordingly, such
regulations are not applicable to the Offer.
State Takeover Laws. A number of states have adopted anti-takeover laws which
purport, to varying degrees, to be applicable to attempts to acquire securities
of corporations which are incorporated in such states or which have substantial
assets, security holders, principal executive offices or principal places of
business therein. These laws are directed at the acquisition of corporations and
not partnerships. The Purchasers, therefore, do not believe that any
anti-takeover laws apply to the transactions contemplated by the Offer.
Although the Purchasers have not attempted to comply with any state
anti-takeover statutes in connection with the
20
Offer, the Purchasers reserve the right to challenge the validity or
applicability of any state law allegedly applicable to the Offer and nothing in
this Offer nor any action taken in connection herewith is intended as a waiver
of such right. If any state anti-takeover statute is applicable to the Offer,
the Purchasers might be unable to accept for payment or purchase Units tendered
pursuant to the Offer or be delayed in continuing or consummating the Offer. In
such case, the Purchasers may not be obligated to accept for purchase or pay for
any Units tendered.
Section 15. Fees and Expenses. The Purchasers have retained MacKenzie Patterson
Fuller, Inc., an affiliate of certain Purchasers, to act as Depositary in
connection with the Offer. The Purchasers will pay the Depositary reasonable and
customary compensation for its services in connection with the Offer, plus
reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses, and will indemnify the Depositary
against certain liabilities and expenses in connection therewith, including
liabilities under the federal securities laws. The Purchasers will also pay all
costs and expenses of printing, publication and mailing of the Offer and all
costs of transfer.
Section 16. Miscellaneous. THE OFFER IS NOT BEING MADE TO (NOR WILL TENDERS BE
ACCEPTED FROM OR ON BEHALF OF) UNIT HOLDERS IN ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE
MAKING OF THE OFFER OR THE ACCEPTANCE THEREOF WOULD NOT BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION. THE PURCHASERS ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY JURISDICTION
WITHIN THE UNITED STATES IN WHICH THE MAKING OF THE OFFER OR THE ACCEPTANCE
THEREOF WOULD BE ILLEGAL.
No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any
representation on behalf of the Purchasers not contained herein or in the Letter
of Transmittal and, if given or made, such information or representation must
not be relied upon as having been authorized.
