PART I

 

Item 1. Business

Background

The Registrant, DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”), is a limited partnership organized under the Wisconsin Uniform Limited Partnership Act pursuant to Certificate of Limited Partnership dated as of November 20, 1987, and governed by a Limited Partnership Agreement , as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Partnership Agreement”). As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership consisted of one General Partner (“Management”) and 1,887 Limited Partners owning an aggregate of 46,280.3 Limited Partnership Interests (the “Interests”) acquired at a public offering price of $1,000 per Interest before volume discounts.

The Partnership is currently engaged in the business of owning and operating its investment portfolio of commercial real estate properties (the “Properties”.) The Properties are leased on a triple net basis primarily to, and operated by, primarily franchisees of national, regional and local retail chains under long-term leases. The lessees are predominantly fast food, family style, and casual/theme restaurants. At December 31, 2009, the Partnership owned fifteen (15) Properties, which included one vacant property in Park Forest, IL (formerly a Popeye’s restaurant). Nine (9) of the fifteen (15) Partnership properties are leased to two Wendy’s Franchisee’s. Six (6) of the properties were leased to Wendgusta, LLC (“Wendgusta”) and three (3) of the properties were leased to Wendcharles I, LLC (“Wendcharles”). Operating base rents from these nine (9) leases comprised approximately 65% of the total 2009 operating base rents. During 2009, additional percentage rents were also generated from these Wendy’s properties and totaled approximately $350,000. Additionally, the nine properties exceeded approximately 60% of the Partnership’s total properties, both by asset value and number. Eight (8) of the Nine (9) Wendy’s leases are set to expire in November of 2021, with the remaining one (1) lease set to expire in November of 2016. See Properties under Item 2. below for further discussion of the Partnership’s investment properties.

As a result of the amendment to the Partnership Agreement following the consent of a majority of the Limited Partners (pursuant to our 2009 Consent solicitation which closed on October 14, 2009) to extend the term of the Partnership, the Partnership will be dissolved on November 30, 2020 or earlier upon the prior occurrence of any of the following events: (a) the disposition of all properties of the Partnership; (b) the written determination by the General Partner that the Partnership’s assets may constitute “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA; (c) the agreement of Limited Partners owning a majority of the outstanding interests to dissolve the Partnership; or (d) the dissolution, bankruptcy, death, withdrawal, or incapacity of the last remaining General Partner, unless an additional General Partner is elected previously by a majority of the Limited Partners. During the Second Quarters of 2001, 2003, 2005 and 2007, Consent solicitations were circulated (the “2001, 2003, 2005 and 2007 Consents, respectively”), which if approved would have authorized the sale of the Partnership’s assets and dissolution of the Partnership. A majority of the Limited Partners did not vote in favor of either the 2001, 2003, 2005 or 2007 Consents. Therefore, the Partnership continued to operate as a going concern. On July 31, 2009, the Partnership mailed a Consent solicitation (the “2009 Consent”) to Limited Partners to determine whether the Limited Partners wished to extend the term of the Partnership for ten (10) years to November 30, 2020 (the “Extension Proposition”), or wished the Partnership to sell its assets, liquidate, and dissolve by November 30, 2010. Per the provisions of the 2009 Consent, once the General Partner had received Consent Cards from Limited Partners holding a majority of the Partnership Interests voting either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the Extension Proposition, the General Partner could declare the 2009 Consent solicitation process concluded and would be bound by the results of such process. In any event, unless the General Partner elected to extend the deadline of the Consent solicitation, the 2009 Consent solicitation processes and the opportunity to vote by returning a Consent Card, was to end on October 31, 2009. As of October 14 2009, a majority of the Partnership Interests voted “FOR” the Extension Proposition and the General Partner declared the 2009 Consent solicitation process concluded as of that date. Therefore, the Partnership continues to operate as a going concern.

The Permanent Manager Agreement

The Permanent Management Agreement (“PMA”) was entered into on February 8, 1993, between the Partnership, DiVall 1 (which was dissolved in December 1998), DiVall 3 (which was dissolved in December 2003), the now former general partners DiVall and Magnuson, their controlled affiliates, and The Provo Group, Inc. (“TPG”), naming TPG as the Permanent Manager. The PMA contains provisions allowing the Permanent Manager to submit the PMA, the issue of electing the Permanent Manager as General Partner, and the issue of acceptance of the resignations of the former general partners to a vote of the Limited Partners through a solicitation of written consents.

TPG, as the new General Partner, has been operating and managing the affairs of the Partnership in accordance with the provisions of the PMA and the Partnership Agreement.

The PMA had an original expiration date of December 31, 2002. At the end of the original term, it was extended three years by TPG to an expiration date of December 31, 2005 and then an additional three years to an expiration date of December 31, 2008. Effective January 1, 2009, the PMA was renewed by TPG for the two-year period ending December 31, 2010. The PMA can be terminated earlier (a) by a vote at any time by a majority in interest of the Limited Partners, (b) upon the dissolution and winding up of the Partnership, (c) upon the entry of an order of a court finding that the Permanent Manager has engaged in fraud or other like misconduct or has shown itself to be incompetent in carrying out its duties under the Partnership Agreement, or (d) upon sixty (60) days written notice from the Permanent Manager to the Limited Partners of the Partnership.

Advisory Board

The concept of the Advisory Board was first introduced by TPG during the solicitation of written consents seeking to elect TPG as the general partner, and is the only type of oversight body known to exist for similar partnerships at this time. The first Advisory Board was appointed in October 1993, and held its first meeting in November 1993. Among other functions, the three person Advisory Board has the following rights: to review operational policies and practices; to review extraordinary transactions; to review internal financial controls and practices; and to review the performance of the independent auditors of the Partnership. The Advisory Board powers are advisory only and the Board does not have the authority to direct management decisions or policies of the Partnership or remove the General Partner. The Advisory Board has full and free access to the Partnership’s books and records, and individual Advisory Board members have the right to communicate directly with the Limited Partners concerning Partnership business. Members of the Advisory Board are compensated $1,500 annually and $500 for each quarterly meeting attended.

The Advisory Board currently consists of a broker dealer representative, William Arnold; and Limited Partners from the Partnership: Jesse Small and Albert Kramer. For a brief description of each Advisory Board member, refer to Item 10, Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant.

The Partnership has no employees.

All of the Partnership’s business is conducted in the United States.

Table of Contents
(7) Six (6) of the fifteen (15) properties owned as of December 31, 2009 were leased to Wendgusta, LLC (“Wendgusta”). Since more than 20% of the Partnership’s properties, both by asset value and number, are leased to a single tenant, the financial status of the tenant may be considered relevant to investors. At the request of the Partnership, Wendgusta provided it with a copy of its reviewed financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 27, 2009 and December 28, 2008. Those reviewed financial statements are attached to this Annual Report 10-K as Exhibit 99.1.
(8) Three (3) of the fifteen (15) properties owned by the Partnership as of December 31, 2009 were leased to Wendcharles I, LLC (“Wendcharles”). Since nearly 20% of the Partnership’s properties, both by asset value and number, are leased to a single tenant, the financial status of the tenant may be considered relevant to investors. Wendcharles was formed during 2008, and at the request of the Partnership, Wendcharles provided it with a copy of its reviewed financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 27, 2009 and the initial period June 24 to December 28, 2008. Those reviewed financial statements are attached to this Annual Report 10-K as Exhibit 99.2.
(9) The property is currently vacant. The lease on the property was terminated with former tenant, Popeye’s, during the Third Quarter of 2008.

The following summarizes significant developments, by property, for properties with such developments.

Panda Buffet Restaurant- Grand Forks, ND Property

A sales contract was executed on September 30, 2009 for the installment sale of the Panda Buffet restaurant property to the tenant for $520,000 (sales amount was to be reduced to $450,000 if closing occurred on or before November 15, 2009). The closing date on the sale of the property was November 12, 2009 at a sales price of $450,000. The buyer paid $150,000 at closing with the remaining balance of $300,000 being delivered in the form of a Promissory note (“Buyers Note”) to the Partnership. The Buyers Note reflects a term of three years, an interest rate of 7.25%, and principal and interest payments paid monthly and principal amortized over a period of ten years beginning December 1, 2009 with a balloon payment after year three. Pursuant to the Buyers Note, there will be no penalty for early payment of principal. A net gain on the sale of approximately $29,000 was recognized in the Fourth Quarter of 2009. Closing and other sale related costs amounted to approximately $21,000 and included a $13,500 sales commission paid to the General Partner. The Buyers Note also requires the buyer to escrow property taxes with the Partnership beginning January of 2010.

Per the amortization schedule, the monthly payments are to total approximately $3,522 per month. The first payment was received by the Partnership on November 30, 2009 and included approximately $2,374 in principal and $1,148 in interest.

Applebee’s- Columbus, OH Property

An Amendment and Extension of Lease (“Amendment”) was fully executed with the tenant on November 4, 2009. The Amendment, effective as of November 1, 2009, provides for an annual base rent of $135,996 and is set to expire on October 31, 2012. The Amendment also provides for five (5) options to renew the lease for an additional two (2) years (base rent will increase by 2% percent for each year of each option). The Amendment also increased the percentage rent sales breakpoint from $1,500,000 to $2,300,000 and decreased the additional percentage rent from 7% to 5%. A leasing commission of approximately $12,000 was paid to a General Partner affiliate in the Fourth Quarter of 2009 in relation to the Amendment.

Daytona’s All Sports Café- Des Moines, IA Property

The previous lease, with an annual base rent of $72,000, expired on February 28, 2009. In July of 2009, Management agreed to the terms of a twenty seven (27) month lease extension with Daytona’s All Sports Café (“Daytona’s”). The lease amendment, which was executed in early August of 2009, began, and was effective, as of March 1, 2009, provides for an annual base rent of $72,000 (less a potential $600 rent credit per month for both timely payment and sales reporting), and is set to expire on May 31, 2011. A commission of approximately $5,000 was paid to a General Partner affiliate in the Third Quarter upon the execution of the lease amendment. In accordance with the lease amendment, building improvements of approximately $17,000 were made to the property during the Fourth Quarter of 2009, which included $9,000 paid by the Partnership.

Beginning in December of 2005, Management requested that Daytona’s escrow its future property tax liabilities with the Partnership on a monthly basis. As of December 31, 2009, Daytona’s was current on its monthly rent and property tax escrow obligations and escrow payments held by the Partnership totaled approximately $26,000.

Denny’s- Phoenix, Arizona Property

The former property lease, with an annual base rent of $72,000, expired on April 30, 2009. The tenant then paid month-to-month rent of $6,000 for May of 2009. A new twenty three (23) month lease was executed with the tenant, Denny’s #6423, LLC (“Denny’s), in June of 2009. The lease (which was effective as of June 1, 2009) provides for an annual base rent of $72,000 (less a potential $600 rent credit per month for both timely payment and sales reporting), and is set to expire on April 30, 2011. A commission of approximately $4,000 was paid to a General Partner affiliate in the Second Quarter of 2009 in relation to the lease. In December of 2009, due to recent sluggish sales figures, Denny’s notified Management of its intent to terminate the lease, pursuant to its lease rights, as of March 15, 2010. Responsive to the depressed Phoenix market, during January of 2010, Management and Denny’s agreed to a six month temporary modification to the lease retroactive to January 1, 2010. The tenant’s rent from January 2010 through June of 2010 will be strictly percentage rent at eight (8) percent of monthly sales over $50,000. Management is uncertain as to whether there will be rent modifications for the remaining six months of 2010 or whether the expiration date of the lease will be effectively June 30, 2010.

The Denny’s- Northern, Phoenix, AZ property was reclassified to a property held for sale in January of 2008, due to the execution of a listing agreement with an unaffiliated broker. A sales contract with an unaffiliated party was then executed in February of 2008. The sales contract, dated February 22, 2008, for the sale of the Denny’s- Phoenix, AZ property was terminated by the potential buyer in early May of 2008 due to financing difficulties. The $25,000 escrow deposit continued to be held with the title company until June of 2009, when both parties agreed to release the escrow deposit and to share the released funds equally between seller and buyer. Although the listing agreement had expired, Management continued to hold the property for sale at June 30, 2008, as other options for the sale of the property were being pursued. However, the property was reclassified to an investment property in September of 2008, as Management did not plan to actively pursue options for its sale.

Vacant Park Forest, IL Property

Popeye’s ceased its operations in June of 2008. The lease was terminated and the tenant vacated the property in July of 2008. As of June 30, 2008, the former defaulted tenant owed the Partnership approximately $19,000 and $14,000 in past due billings of monthly rent and property tax escrow, respectively. The Partnership received full payment of both of these items from Popeye’s in August of 2008 in accordance with the terms of the lease termination and settlement agreement.

The Partnership has been unsuccessful in finding a new tenant for the vacant Park Forest, IL property. The Partnership agreed to sell the property for $50,000 to a prospective purchaser. Negotiations ended due to uncertainty over 2008 real estate tax obligations due in 2009. The Partnership has no other interested parties for this vacant property in a distressed location. Accordingly, the carrying value of the

Table of Contents

vacant Park Forest, IL property was reduced by $276,186 to its estimated fair market value of $50,000 at September 30, 2008. The reduction included $129,450 related to land and $137,736 related to buildings and improvements. During the Fourth Quarter of 2009, the land carrying value of the vacant Park Forest, IL property was reduced by $50,000 to an estimated fair market value of zero.

Property tax in Cook County, IL is paid in arrears (2009 tax will be paid in 2010) and is paid in two installments, one in the First Quarter and one in the Third or Fourth Quarter (depending upon the timing of tax rate determinations and property tax bill issuance by the County). The former tenant’s property tax escrow balance held with the Partnership as of September 30, 2008 met all but $1,300 of the second installment of 2007 property tax paid in November of 2008 for the Park Forest property. The minimal shortage was accrued and expensed by the Partnership as of September 30, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, the Partnership had accrued approximately $56,000 of estimated 2008 property tax related to the Park Forest property, which would be payable to the Cook County taxing authority in 2009. The first installment of 2008 property tax, totaling approximately $27,500, was paid in February of 2009. During the Third Quarter of 2009, Cook County responded to the Partnership’s appraisal appeal for Park Forest (due to the property’s vacancy) and lowered the property’s 2008 appraised value. At September 30, 2009, the remaining accrued 2008 property tax balance was decreased by $20,000 and at October 31, 2009 it was further decreased by $3,000 upon receipt of the actual tax statement. The 2008 second installment of approximately $5,500 was paid in November of 2009. Due to the lease termination and settlement, the 2008 property taxes paid in 2009 will not be collectible from the former tenant. Therefore, beginning with the property tax related to the 2008 tax year, property tax related to the vacant Park Forest property are the responsibility of the Partnership. As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership has accrued twelve months of estimated 2009 property tax totaling approximately $36,000 related to the Park Forest property, which the Partnership will be obligated to pay to the Cook County taxing authority in 2010. The first installment of 2009 property tax, totaling approximately $18,000 was paid in January of 2010.

Due to the vacancy of the Park Forest, IL property, the Partnership has assumed maintenance responsibility. Approximately $1,400 in maintenance expenditures were incurred by the Partnership during 2009 in relation to lawn and landscaping services.

Wendy’s- 1515 Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC Property

On August 21, 2007, the Partnership executed a contract to sell the property to unaffiliated party. On February 29, 2008, the Partnership received a Notice of Termination of Contract in relation to the sale of the property. The buyer was unable to procure the necessary city building permits in the manner desired. On March 3, 2008, in accordance with the terms of the sales contract, the Partnership received the $25,000 in earnest money held with the title company.

A new sales contract was executed on April 10, 2008 for the sale of the property to a different unaffiliated party for $1.17 million. A letter of Tenant’s Right of First Refusal was mailed to the tenant, Wencoast Restaurants, Inc., on April 10, 2008 in accordance with the lease. Wencoast, who had 30 days from its receipt of the letter, did not exercise its right of first refusal.

The closing date on the sale of the property was May 28, 2008 and the net sales proceeds totaled approximately $1.09 million. A net gain on the sale of approximately $659,000 was recognized in the Second Quarter of 2008. Closing and other sale related costs amounted to approximately $80,000 and included $70,200 in sales commission, of which $35,100 was paid to a General Partner affiliate.

Sunrise Preschool- Phoenix, AZ Property

A listing agreement for the sale of the property was executed in June of 2006. In early January of 2007, a sales contract was executed for the sale of the property for $1.6 million. Per notice from the Partnership, tenant, Borg Holdings, Inc. (“Borg”), had 30 days from January 16, 2007, to act upon their right of first refusal to purchase the Phoenix property, since a separate buyer entered into a real estate contract for the purchase of the property. On January 29, 2007, Borg informed the Partnership that they would be exercising their right to accept the terms of the contract for the sale of the Phoenix, AZ property. The closing date on the sale of the property was April 23, 2007 and the net sales proceeds totaled approximately $1.49 million. A net gain on the sale of approximately $862,000 was recognized in the Second Quarter of 2007. Closing and other sale related costs amounted to approximately $111,000 and included a $48,000 sales commission paid to a General Partner affiliate.

Other Property Information

Property taxes, general maintenance, insurance and ground rent on the Partnership’s investment properties are the responsibility of the tenant. However, when a tenant fails to make the required tax payments or when a property becomes vacant (such as the vacant Park Forest, IL property formerly operated as a Popeye’s Famous Fried Chicken restaurant), the Partnership makes the appropriate property tax payments to avoid possible foreclosure of the property and in a property vacancy the Partnership pays for maintenance related to the vacant property. Such taxes, insurance and ground rent are accrued in the period in which the liability is incurred. The Partnership owns one (1) restaurant, which is located on a parcel of land where it has entered into a long-term ground lease. The tenant, Kentucky Fried Chicken, is responsible for the $3,400 per month ground lease payment.

These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but are the intent, belief or current expectations of our management based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry. Words such as “may,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that these expectations will prove to have been correct. These statements are not guarantees of the future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements that were true at the time made may ultimately prove to be incorrect or false. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect our management’s view only as of the date of this Form 10-K. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-K include changes in general economic conditions, changes in real estate conditions, lease-up risks, inability to obtain new tenants upon the expiration of existing leases, the potential need to fund tenant improvements or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flows and our inability to realize value for limited partners upon disposition of the Partnership’s assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Investment Properties and Net Investment in Direct Financing Leases

The Properties held by the Partnership at December 31, 2009 were originally purchased at a price, including acquisition costs, of $11,395,768.

The total cost of the investment properties includes the original purchase price plus acquisition fees and other capitalized costs paid to an affiliate of the former general partners.

As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership owned fifteen (15) fully constructed fast-food restaurants, one of which, located in Park Forest, IL, is currently vacant and was formerly operated as a Popeye’s Famous Fried Chicken restaurant (tenant ceased operations in June of 2008, and the lease was terminated and the property vacated in July of 2008). The fourteen (14) properties with operating tenants are composed of the following: nine (9) Wendy’s restaurants, one (1) Denny’s restaurant, one (1) Applebee’s restaurant, one (1) Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant, one (1) Chinese Super Buffet, and one (1) Daytona’s All Sports Café. The fifteen (15) properties are located in a total of seven (7) states.

Six (6) of the fifteen (15) properties owned as of December 31, 2009 were leased to Wendgusta, LLC (“Wendgusta”), a Wendy’s franchisee. Since more than 20% of the Partnership’s properties, both by asset value and number, are leased to a single tenant, the financial status of the tenant may be considered

relevant to investors. At the request of the Partnership, Wendgusta provided it with a copy of its reviewed financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 27, 2009 and December 28, 2008. Those reviewed financial statements are attached to this Annual Report 10-K as Exhibit 99.1. These financial statements were prepared by Wendgusta’s accountants. The Partnership has no rights to audit or review Wendgusta and the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm has not audited or reviewed the financial statements received from Wendgusta. The Partnership has no reason to believe the Wendgusta financial statements do not accurately reflect the financial position of Wendgusta.

Three (3) of the fifteen (15) properties owned as of December 31, 2009 were leased to Wendcharles I, LLC (“Wendcharles”). Since nearly 20% of the Partnership’s properties, both by asset value and number, are leased to a single tenant, the financial status of the tenant may be considered relevant to investors. Wendcharles was formed during 2008, and at the request of the Partnership, Wendcharles provided it with a copy of its reviewed financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2009 and the initial period June 24 to December 28, 2008. Those reviewed financial statements are attached to this Annual Report 10-K as Exhibit 99.2. These financial statements were prepared by Wendcharles’ accountants. The Partnership has no rights to audit or review Wendcharles and the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm has not audited or reviewed the financial statements received from Wendcharles. The Partnership has no reason to believe the Wendcharles financial statements do not accurately reflect the financial position of Wendcharles.

The Partnership’s return on its investment will be derived principally from rental payments received from its lessees. Therefore, the Partnership’s return on its investment is largely dependent upon the business success of its lessees. The business success of the Partnership’s individual lessees can be adversely affected on three general levels. First, the tenants rely heavily on the management contributions of a few key entrepreneurial owners. The business operations of such entrepreneurial tenants can be adversely affected by death, disability or divorce of a key owner, or by such owner’s poor business decisions such as an undercapitalized business expansion. Second, changes in a local market area can adversely affect a lessee’s business operation. A local economy can suffer a downturn with high unemployment. Socioeconomic neighborhood changes can affect retail demand at specific sites and traffic patterns may change, or stronger competitors may enter a market. These and other local market factors can potentially adversely affect the lessees of Partnership properties. Finally, despite an individual lessee’s solid business plans in a strong local market, the chain concept itself can suffer reversals or changes in management policy, which in turn can affect the profitability of operations for Partnership properties. An overall economic recession is another factor that could affect the relative success of a lessee’s business. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any specific lessee will have the ability to pay its rent over the entire term of its lease with the Partnership.

Since the Partnership’s investment in properties and equipment involves restaurant tenants, the restaurant market is the major market segment with a material impact on Partnership operations. It would appear that the management skill and potential operating efficiencies realized by Partnership lessees will be a major ingredient for their future operating success in a very competitive restaurant and food service marketplace.

There is no way to determine, with any certainty, which, if any, tenants will succeed or fail in their business operations over the term of their respective leases with the Partnership. It can be reasonably anticipated that some lessees will default on future lease payments to the Partnership, which will result in the loss of expected lease income for the Partnership. Management will use its best efforts to vigorously pursue collection of any defaulted amounts and to protect the Partnership’s assets and future rental income potential by trying to re-lease any properties with rental defaults. External events, which could impact the Partnership’s liquidity, are the entrance of other competitors into the market areas of our tenants; the relocation of the market area itself to another traffic area; liquidity and working capital needs of the lessees; and failure or withdrawal of any of the national franchises held by the Partnership’s tenants. Each

of these events, alone or in combination, would affect the liquidity level of the lessees resulting in possible default by a tenant. Since the information regarding plans for future liquidity and expansion of closely held organizations, which are tenants of the Partnership, tend to be of a private and proprietary nature, anticipation of individual liquidity problems is difficult.

Property taxes, general maintenance, insurance and ground rent on the Partnership’s investment properties are the responsibility of the tenant. However, when a tenant fails to make the required tax payments or when a property becomes vacant (such as the vacant Park Forest, IL property formerly operated as a Popeye’s Famous Fried Chicken restaurant), the Partnership makes the appropriate property tax payments to avoid possible foreclosure of the property and in a property vacancy the Partnership pays for maintenance related to the vacant property. Such taxes, insurance and ground rent are accrued in the period in which the liability is incurred. The Partnership owns one (1) restaurant, which is located on a parcel of land where it has entered into a long-term ground lease. The tenant, Kentucky Fried Chicken, is responsible for the $3,400 per month ground lease payment.

During the Fourth Quarter of 2009, $9,000 in building improvements related to the Daytona’s All Sports Café were capitalized by the Partnership.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance for “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, current and historical results from operations for disposed properties and assets classified as held for sale that occur subsequent to January 1, 2002 are reclassified separately as discontinued operations. The guidance also requires the adjustment to carrying value of properties due to impairment in an attempt to reflect appropriate market values.

The Partnership has been unsuccessful in finding a new tenant for the vacant Park Forest, IL property. The Partnership agreed to sell the property for $50,000 to a prospective purchaser. Negotiations ended due to uncertainty over 2008 real estate tax obligations due in 2009. The Partnership has no other interested parties for this vacant property in a distressed location. Accordingly, the carrying value of the vacant Park Forest, IL property was reduced by $276,186 to its estimated fair market value of $50,000 during the Third Quarter of 2008. The reduction included $129,450 related to land and $137,736 related to buildings and improvements. The remaining land carrying value of the vacant Park Forest, IL property was further reduced by $50,000 to an estimated fair market value of zero during the Fourth Quarter of 2009.

During 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership recognized income from discontinued operations of approximately $42,000, $1,432,000 and $1,099,000, respectively. The 2009, 2008 and 2007 income from discontinued operations is attributable to the Third Quarter of 2009 reclassification of the Panda Buffet restaurant- Grand Forks, ND (“Panda Buffet”) property to property held for sale (executed sales contract dated September 30, 2009). The 2009 income from discontinued operations includes the Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $29,000 on the sale of the Panda Buffet property. The 2008 and 2007 income from discontinued operations is also attributable to the reclassification of the Wendy’s- 1515 Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property and the Blockbuster, Ogden, UT property to properties held for sale. The Wendy’s property was sold in May of 2008 under the terms of the Sales Contract dated April 10, 2008 and the Blockbuster property was sold in December of 2008. The 2008 income from discontinued operations includes the Second Quarter net gain of approximately $659,000 on the sale of the Wendy’s- 1515 Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property and the Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $601,000 on the sale of the Blockbuster. The 2008 income from discontinued operations also includes the First Quarter of 2008 collection of $25,000 in earnest money in relation to the termination of the Wendy’s- Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property sales contract dated August 21, 2007. Discontinued operations for 2007 included income related to the Sunrise Preschool, Phoenix, AZ property which was reclassified to properties held for sale in the Second Quarter of 2006 and sold in April of 2007. The 2007

Table of Contents

income from discontinued operations included a Second Quarter net gain on the sale of the Sunrise Preschool property of approximately $862,000 and a Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $25,000 on the sale of a small strip of the Popeye’s- Park Forest, IL land to the Illinois Department of Transportation to be used as street right of way.

The following summarizes significant developments, by property, for properties with such developments.

Panda Buffet Restaurant- Grand Forks, ND Property

A sales contract was executed on September 30, 2009 for the installment sale of the Panda Buffet restaurant property to the owner tenant for $520,000 (sales amount was to be reduced to $450,000 if closing occurred on or before November 15, 2009). The closing date on the sale of the property was November 12, 2009 at a sales price of $450,000. The buyer paid $150,000 at closing with the remaining balance of $300,000 being delivered in the form of a Promissory note (“Buyers Note”) to the Partnership. The Buyers Note reflects a term of three years, an interest rate of 7.25%, and principal and interest payments paid monthly and principal amortized over a period of ten years beginning December 1, 2009 with a balloon payment after year three. Pursuant to the Buyers Note, there will be no penalty for early payment of principal. A net gain on the sale of approximately $29,000 was recognized in the Fourth Quarter of 2009. Closing and other sale related costs amounted to approximately $21,000 and included a $13,500 sales commission paid to the General Partner. The Buyers Note also requires the buyer to escrow property taxes with the Partnership beginning January of 2010.

Per the amortization schedule, the monthly payments are to total approximately $3,522 per month. The first payment was received by the Partnership on November 30, 2009 and included approximately $2,374 in principal and $1,148 in interest.

Applebee’s- Columbus, OH Property

An Amendment and Extension of Lease (“Amendment”) was fully executed with the tenant on November 4, 2009. The Amendment, effective as of November 1, 2009, provides for an annual base rent of $135,996 and is set to expire on October 31, 2012. The Amendment also provides for five (5) options to renew the lease for an additional two (2) years (base rent will increase by 2% percent for each year of each option). The Amendment also increased the percentage rent sales breakpoint from $1,500,000 to $2,300,000 and decreased the additional percentage rent from 7% to 5%. A leasing commission of approximately $12,000 was paid to a General Partner affiliate in the Fourth Quarter of 2009 in relation to the Amendment.

Daytona’s All Sports Café- Des Moines, IA Property

The previous lease, with an annual base rent of $72,000, expired on February 28, 2009. In July of 2009, Management agreed to the terms of a 27 month lease extension with Daytona’s All Sports Café (“Daytona’s”). The lease amendment, which was executed in early August of 2009, began, and was effective, as of March 1, 2009, provides for an annual base rent of $72,000 (less a potential $600 rent credit per month for both timely payment and sales reporting), and is set to expire on May 31, 2011. A commission of approximately $5,000 was paid to a General Partner affiliate in the Third Quarter upon the execution of the lease amendment. In accordance with the lease amendment, building improvements of approximately $17,000 were made to the property during the Fourth Quarter of 2009, which included $9,000 paid by the Partnership.

Beginning in December of 2005, Management requested that Daytona’s escrow its future property tax liabilities with the Partnership on a monthly basis. As of December 31, 2009, Daytona’s was current on its monthly rent and property tax escrow obligations and escrow payments held by the Partnership totaled approximately $26,000.

Denny’s- Phoenix, Arizona Property

The former property lease, with an annual base rent of $72,000, expired on April 30, 2009. The tenant then paid month-to-month rent of $6,000 for May of 2009. A new twenty three (23) month lease was executed with the tenant, Denny’s #6423, LLC (“Denny’s), in June of 2009. The lease (which was effective as of June 1, 2009) provides for an annual base rent of $72,000 (less a potential $600 rent credit per month for both timely payment and sales reporting), and is set to expire on April 30, 2011. A commission of approximately $4,000 was paid to a General Partner affiliate in the Second Quarter of 2009 in relation to the lease. In December of 2009, due to recent sluggish sales figures, Denny’s notified Management of its intent to terminate the lease, pursuant to its lease rights, as of March 15, 2010. Responsive to the depressed Phoenix market, during January of 2010, Management and Denny’s agreed to a six month temporary modification to the lease retroactive to January 1, 2010. The tenant’s rent from January 2010 through June of 2010 will be strictly percentage rent at eight (8) percent of monthly sales over $50,000. Management is uncertain as to whether there will be rent modifications for the remaining six months of 2010 or whether the expiration date of the lease will be effectively June 30, 2010.

The Denny’s- Northern, Phoenix, AZ property was reclassified to a property held for sale in January of 2008, due to the execution of a listing agreement with an unaffiliated broker. A sales contract with an unaffiliated party was then executed in March of 2008. A sales contract, dated February 22, 2008, for the sale of the Denny’s- Phoenix, AZ property was terminated by the potential buyer in early May of 2008 due to financing difficulties. The $25,000 escrow deposit continued to be held with the title company until June of 2009, when both parties agreed to release the escrow deposit and to share the released funds equally between seller and buyer. Although the listing agreement had expired, Management continued to hold the property for sale at June 30, 2008, as other options for the sale of the property were being pursued. However, the property was reclassified to an investment property in September of 2008, as Management did not plan to actively pursue options for its sale.

Vacant Park Forest, IL Property

Popeye’s ceased its operations in June of 2008. The lease was terminated and the tenant vacated the property in July of 2008. As of June 30, 2008, the former defaulted tenant owed the Partnership approximately $19,000 and $14,000 in past due billings of monthly rent and property tax escrow, respectively. The Partnership received full payment of both of these items from Popeye’s in August of 2008 in accordance with the terms of the lease termination and settlement agreement.

The Partnership has been unsuccessful in finding a new tenant for the vacant Park Forest, IL property. The Partnership agreed to sell the property for $50,000 to a prospective purchaser. Negotiations ended due to uncertainty over 2008 real estate tax obligations due in 2009. The Partnership has no other interested parties for this vacant property in a distressed location. Accordingly, the carrying value of the vacant Park Forest, IL property was reduced by $267,186 to its estimated fair market value of $50,000 at September 30, 2008. The reduction included $129,450 related to land and $137,736 related to buildings and improvements. During the Fourth Quarter of 2009, the land carrying value of the vacant Park Forest, IL property was reduced by $50,000 to its estimated fair market value of zero.

Property tax in Cook County, IL is paid in arrears (2009 tax will be paid in 2010) and is paid in two installments, one in the First Quarter and one in the Third or Fourth Quarter (depending upon the timing of tax rate determinations and property tax bill issuance by the County). The former tenant’s property tax escrow balance held with the Partnership as of September 30, 2008 met all but $1,300 of the second installment of 2007 property tax paid in November of 2008 for the Park Forest property. The minimal

shortage was accrued and expensed by the Partnership as of September 30, 2008. As of December 31, 2008, the Partnership had accrued approximately $56,000 of estimated 2008 property tax related to the Park Forest property, which would be payable to the Cook County taxing authority in 2009. The first installment of 2008 property tax, totaling approximately $27,500, was paid in February of 2009. During the Third Quarter of 2009, Cook County responded to the Partnership’s appraisal appeal for Park Forest (due to the property’s vacancy) and lowered the property’s 2008 appraised value. At September 30, 2009, the remaining accrued 2008 property tax balance was decreased by $20,000 and at October 31, 2009 it was further decreased by $3,000 upon receipt of the actual tax statement. The 2008 second installment of approximately $5,500 was paid in November of 2009. Due to the lease termination and settlement, the 2008 property taxes paid in 2009 will not be collectible from the former tenant. Therefore, beginning with the property tax related to the 2008 tax year, property tax related to the vacant Park Forest property are the responsibility of the Partnership. As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership has accrued twelve months of estimated 2009 property tax totaling approximately $36,000 related to the Park Forest property, which the Partnership will be obligated to pay to the Cook County taxing authority in 2010. The first installment of 2009 property tax, totaling approximately $18,000 was paid in January of 2010.

Due to the vacancy of the Park Forest, IL property, the Partnership has assumed maintenance responsibility. Approximately $1,400 in maintenance expenditures were incurred by the Partnership during 2009 in relation to lawn and clean-up services.

Other Investment in Properties Information

According to the Partnership Agreement, the former general partners were to commit 80% of the original offering proceeds to investment in properties. Upon the close of the offering, approximately 75% of the original proceeds were invested in the Partnership’s properties.

Certain leases provide the tenant with the option to acquire the property occupied by the tenant. The General Partner is not aware of any unfavorable purchase options in relation to the original cost or fair market value of the property at the time the option was granted, contained in any of the Partnership’s existing leases.

Other Assets

Cash held by the Partnership totaled approximately $551,000 at December 31, 2009, compared to $1,529,000 at December 31, 2008. The variance in the cash balance is primarily due to the net sale proceeds collected from the sale of the Blockbuster, Ogden, UT property in December of 2008. Cash of $390,000 is anticipated to be used to fund the Fourth Quarter of 2009 distribution to Limited Partners in February of 2010, and cash of approximately $76,000 is anticipated to be used for the payment of year-end accounts payable and accrued expenses, and the remainder represents amounts deemed necessary to allow the Partnership to operate normally.

Our principal demands for funds will be for the payment of operating expenses and distributions. Management anticipates that cash generated through the operations of the Partnership’s investment properties and sales of investment properties will provide the sources for future fund liquidity and limited partner distributions. The amount of cash to be distributed to our limited partners is determined by the General Partner, TPG, and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for payment of distributions, financial condition and capital expenditures.

As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership’s investment portfolio was 93% leased as compared to 94% as of December 31, 2008 (the variance is due to the sale of the Panda Buffet, Grand Forks, ND property in November of 2009). Of the approximately fourteen (14) properties currently leased, only two (2) are due to expire in the next twelve (12) months. Management anticipates working with the current tenants to extend these two leases.

Management intends to hold the current investment properties that the Partnership owns until such time as a sale or other disposition appears to be advantageous to achieve investment objectives or until it appears that such objectives will not be met. In deciding whether to sell individual properties, Management will consider factors such as potential capital appreciation, cash flow and federal income tax considerations, including possible adverse federal income tax consequences to limited partners. TPG may exercise its discretion as to whether and when to sell a property, and it will have no obligation to sell properties at any particular time, except upon the Partnership termination date of November 30, 2020, or if limited partners holding a majority of the units vote to liquidate the Partnership in response to a formal proxy to sell all of the Partnership’s properties prior to that date.

The Partnership established an Indemnification Trust (the “Trust”) during the Fourth Quarter of 1993, deposited $100,000 in the Trust during 1993 and completed funding of the Trust with $150,000 during 1994. The provision to establish the Trust was included in the Permanent Manager Agreement for the indemnification of TPG, in the absence of fraud or gross negligence, from any claims or liabilities that may arise from TPG acting as Permanent Manager. The Trust is owned by the Partnership. (For additional information regarding the Trust refer to Note 8 to the Financial Statements- PMA Indemnification Trust.)

Liabilities

Accounts payable and accrued expenses at December 31, 2009, and December 31, 2008 amounted to approximately $13,000 and $62,000, respectively. The balances primarily represented the accruals of professional and data processing fees and the variance is primarily due to the timing of vendor invoices received and paid.

Property tax payable at December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, totaled approximately $62,000 and $77,000, respectively. The December 31, 2009 balance primarily represented the vacant Park Forest, IL property’s 2009 accrued property taxes (which will be paid in 2010 by the Partnership from operating cash) and Daytona’s property tax escrow charges related to the tenant’s property tax which are scheduled to be due in 2010 (which will be paid by the Partnership from the property tax escrow cash balance held by the Partnership on the behalf of Daytona’s). The December 31, 2008 balance primarily represented the vacant Park Forest, IL property’s 2008 accrued property taxes and Daytona’s property tax escrow charges related to the tenant’s property tax which were scheduled to be due in 2009.

Partners’ Capital

Net income for the year was allocated between the General Partner and the Limited Partners, 1% and 99%, respectively, as provided for in the Partnership Agreement as discussed more fully in Note 4 of the Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this report. The former general partners’ deficit capital account balance was reallocated to the Limited Partners at December 31, 1993. Refer to Note 9 to Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this report for additional information regarding the reallocation.

Cash distributions paid to the Limited Partners and to the General Partner during 2009 of $2,050,000 and $3,290, respectively, have also been made in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership intends to pay Fourth Quarter of 2009 Limited Partner distributions totaling $390,000 on February 12, 2010.

Results of Operations

The Partnership reported income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2009, in the amount of $730,000 compared to income from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 of $612,000 and $1,012,000, respectively. The variance in income from continuing operations in 2009 compared to 2008 and 2007 is due primarily to: (i) lower percentage rent billed and accrued in 2009 for some tenants, due to lower 2009 sales figures; (ii) the Second Quarter of 2009 collection of a $12,500 deposit in relation to the termination of the Denny’s- Phoenix, AZ property sales contract dated February 22, 2008; (iii) higher investor communication and professional services expenditures in 2009 primarily due to the 2009 Consent solicitation process; (iv) the actual Park Forest property tax paid in 2009 for the 2008 tax year was lower than the accrued amount at December 31, 2008; (v) the Park Forest, IL 2009 monthly property tax accruals were lower than the 2008 property tax accruals; (vi) the vacancy of the Park Forest, IL property effective June 30, 2008; (vii) the $50,000 and $267,000 carrying value write-downs of the vacant Park Forest, IL property in the Fourth Quarter of 2009 and the Third Quarter of 2008, respectively; (viii) lower depreciation expense beginning October of 2008, due to the Park Forest, IL building and improvements, net balance being zero after Third Quarter of 2008 write-down; (ix) higher 2008 estimated income tax paid and year-end accruals resulting from the sale of properties; (x) the reversal of the $12,000 2005/2006 estimated insurance premium adjustment accrual in the First Quarter of 2008 and the reversal of the $12,000 2006/2007 estimated insurance premium adjustment accrual in the Second Quarter of 2008 due to insurance endorsements received (accruals were due to the unexpected $12,000 2004/2005 insurance premium adjustment received in the Second Quarter of 2006); and (xi) the recognition of higher interest yields in 2008.

Discontinued Operations

During 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership recognized income from discontinued operations of approximately $42,000, $1,432,000 and $1,099,000, respectively. In accordance with FASB guidance for “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets”, discontinued operations represent the operations of properties disposed of or classified as held for sale subsequent to January 1, 2002 as well as any gain or loss recognized in their disposition. The 2009, 2008 and 2007 income from discontinued operations is attributable to the Third Quarter of 2009 reclassification of the Panda Buffet restaurant- Grand Forks, ND (“Panda Buffet”) property to property held for sale (executed sales contract dated September 30, 2009). The 2009 income from discontinued operations includes the Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $29,000 on the sale of the Panda Buffet property. The 2008 and 2007 income from discontinued operations is also attributable to the reclassification of the Wendy’s- 1515 Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property and the Blockbuster, Ogden, UT property to properties held for sale. The Wendy’s property was sold in May of 2008 under the terms of the Sales Contract dated April 10, 2008 and the Blockbuster property was sold in December of 2008. The 2008 income from discontinued operations includes the Second Quarter net gain of approximately $659,000 on the sale of the Wendy’s-

1515 Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property and the Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $601,000 on the sale of the Blockbuster. The 2008 income from discontinued operations also includes the First Quarter of 2008 collection of $25,000 in earnest money in relation to the termination of the Wendy’s- Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property sales contract dated August 21, 2007. Discontinued operations for 2007 included income related to the Sunrise Preschool, Phoenix, AZ property which was reclassified to properties held for sale in the Second Quarter of 2006 and sold in April of 2007. The 2007 income from discontinued operations included a Second Quarter net gain on the sale of the Sunrise Preschool property of approximately $862,000 and a Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $25,000 on the sale of a small strip of the Popeye’s- Park Forest, IL land to the Illinois Department of Transportation to be used as street right of way.

Revenues

Total operating revenues were $1,563,000, $1,629,000, and $1,669,000, for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. (For further disclosure see Investment Properties in Part I- Item 2, and Part II- Item 7.) The variance in operating revenues in 2009 compared to 2008 and 2007 is due primarily to: (i) lower percentage rent billed and accrued in 2009 for some tenants, due to lower 2009 sales figures; (ii) the Second Quarter of 2009 collection of a $12,500 deposit in relation to the termination of the Denny’s- Phoenix, AZ property sales contract dated February 22, 2008 (iii) the vacancy of the Park Forest, IL property due to the lease termination agreement (rent ceased beginning July of 2008); and (iv) higher percentage rental income accruals for 2007.

As of December 31, 2009, total base operating rent revenues should approximate $1,106,000 for the year 2010 based on leases currently in place. Future operating rent revenues may decrease with tenant defaults and/or the reclassification of Properties as held for sale. They may also increase with additional rents due from tenants, if those tenants experience sales levels, which require the payment of additional rent to the Partnership. Operating percentage rentals included in rental income from operations in 2009, 2008, and 2007 were approximately $399,000, $427,000, and $444,000, respectively.

Expenses

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007 total operating expenses amounted to approximately 55%, 66% and 45%, of total operating revenues, respectively.

The variance in total operating expenses in 2009 compared to 2008 and 2007 is due primarily to: (i) higher investor communication and professional services expenditures in 2009 primarily due to the 2009 Consent solicitation process; (ii) the actual Park Forest property tax paid in 2009 for the 2008 tax year was lower than the accrued amount at December 31, 2008; (iii) the Park Forest, IL 2009 monthly property tax accruals were lower than the 2008 property tax accruals; (iv) the vacancy of the Park Forest, IL property effective June 30, 2008; (v) the $50,000 and $267,000 carrying value write-downs of the vacant Park Forest, IL property in the Fourth Quarter of 2009 and the Third Quarter of 2008, respectively; (vi) lower depreciation expense beginning October of 2008, due to the Park Forest, IL building and improvements, net balance being zero after Third Quarter of 2008 write-down; (vii) higher 2008 estimated income tax paid and year-end accruals resulting from the sale of properties; (viii) the accrual of six months of estimated 2008 property tax related to the vacant Park Forest, IL property in the Second Quarter of 2008; (ix) the reversal of the $12,000 2005/2006 estimated insurance premium adjustment accrual in the First Quarter of 2008 and the reversal of the $12,000 2006/2007 estimated insurance premium adjustment accrual in the Second Quarter of 2008 due to insurance endorsements received (accruals were due to the unexpected $12,000 2004/2005 insurance premium adjustment received in the Second Quarter of 2006); and (x) the recognition of higher interest yields in 2008.

Depreciation and amortization are non-cash items and do not affect current operating cash flow of the Partnership or distributions to the Limited Partners.

Operating write-offs for non-collectible rents and receivables totaling approximately $2,000 were incurred in the Third Quarter of 2009. Operating write-offs for non-collectible rents and receivables totaling approximately $5,000 were incurred in the Third Quarter of 2008. Such write-offs were the result of defaults by the former tenant of the Denny’s- Northern, Phoenix, AZ property. There were no operating write-offs for non-collectible rents and receivables for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Other Income

For the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 the Partnership did generate other income of approximately $32,000, $69,000 and $90,000, respectively. During 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership received approximately $3,000, $3,000 and $13,000, respectively, in investor service fees related to the voiding and reissuance of old outstanding limited partner distribution checks. (See Investment Properties- in Part I- Item 2, and Part II- Item 7.)

A note receivable interest payment totaling approximately $1,000 was received by the Partnership during 2009 and related to the installment sale of the Panda Buffet, Grand Forks, ND property in November of 2009. Per the note receivable amortization schedule, approximately $21,000 is anticipated to be collected by the Partnership in 2010.

During 2009, 2008 and 2007 revenues were also generated from account interest earnings and small recoveries from former General Partners. Higher interest yields were recognized in 2008 and 2007 due to higher interest rates and higher average cash balances (Blockbuster property sold in May of 2008 and sale proceeds distributed in August of 2007; Sunrise Preschool Property sold in April of 2007 and net sale proceeds distributed in August of 2007). Management anticipates that such revenue types may continue to be generated until Partnership dissolution.

Inflation

Inflation has a minimal effect on operating earnings and related cash flows from a portfolio of triple net leases. By their nature, such leases actually fix revenues and are not impacted by rising costs of maintenance, insurance, or real estate taxes. Although the majority of the Partnership’s leases have percentage rent clauses, revenues from operating percentage rents represented only 26% of operating rental income for the year ended 2009 (does not include rental income from properties sold during 2009). If inflation causes operating margins to deteriorate for lessees, or if expenses grow faster than revenues, then, inflation may well negatively impact the portfolio through tenant defaults.

It would be misleading to associate inflation with asset appreciation for real estate, in general, and the Partnership’s portfolio, specifically. Due to the “triple-net” nature of the property leases, asset values generally move inversely with interest rates.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership believes that its most significant accounting policies deal with:

Depreciation methods and lives- Depreciation of the properties is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the buildings and improvements. While the Partnership believes these are the appropriate lives and methods, use of different lives and methods could result in different impacts on net income. Additionally, the value of real estate is typically based on market conditions and property performance, so depreciated book value of real estate may not reflect the market value of real estate assets.

 

25


Table of Contents

Revenue recognition- Rental revenue from investment properties is recognized on the straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease. Percentage rents are accrued only when the tenant has reached the sales breakpoint stipulated in the lease.

Impairment- The Partnership periodically reviews its long-lived assets, primarily real estate, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Partnership’s review involves comparing current and future operating performance of the assets, the most significant of which is undiscounted operating cash flows, to the carrying value of the assets. Based on this analysis, a provision for possible loss is recognized, if any.

 

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Partnership is not subject to market risk as defined by Item 305 of Regulation S-K.

To the Partners

DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership (a Wisconsin limited partnership) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related statements of income, partners' capital, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009.

These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We were not engaged to examine management's assessment of the effectiveness of DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

DIVALL INSURED INCOME PROPERTIES 2 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2009, 2008 AND 2007

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

DiVall Insured Income Properties 2 Limited Partnership was formed on November 18, 1987, pursuant to the Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Wisconsin. The initial capital, contributed during 1987, consisted of $300, representing aggregate capital contributions of $200 by the former general partners and $100 by the Initial Limited Partner. The minimum offering requirements were met and escrowed subscription funds were released to the Partnership as of April 7, 1988. On January 23, 1989, the former general partners exercised their option to increase the offering from 25,000 interests to 50,000 interests and to extend the offering period to a date no later than August 22, 1989. On June 30, 1989, the general partners exercised their option to extend the offering period to a date no later than February 22, 1990. The offering closed on February 22, 1990, at which point 46,280.3 interests had been sold, resulting in total offering proceeds, net of underwriting compensation and other offering costs, of $39,358,468.

The Partnership is currently engaged in the business of owning and operating its investment portfolio of commercial real estate properties (the “Properties”.) The Properties are leased on a triple net basis primarily to, and operated by, franchisors or franchisees of national, regional, and local retail chains under long-term leases. The lessees are primarily fast food, family style, and casual/theme restaurants. As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership owned fifteen (15) properties.

The Partnership will be dissolved on November 30, 2020 (extended ten years per the results of the 2009 Consent, as defined below), or earlier upon the prior occurrence of any of the following events: (a) the disposition of all properties of the Partnership; (b) the written determination by the General Partner that the Partnership’s assets may constitute “plan assets” for purposes of ERISA; (c) the agreement of Limited Partners owning a majority of the outstanding interests to dissolve the Partnership; or (d) the dissolution, bankruptcy, death, withdrawal, or incapacity of the last remaining General Partner, unless an additional General Partner is elected previously by a majority of the Limited Partners. During the Second Quarters of 2001, 2003, 2005 and 2007, Consent solicitations were circulated (the “2001, 2003, 2005 and 2007 Consents, respectively”), which if approved would have authorized the sale of the Partnership’s assets and dissolution of the Partnership. A majority of the Limited Partners did not vote in favor of either the 2001, 2003, 2005 or 2007 Consents. Therefore, the Partnership continued to operate as a going concern. On July 31, 2009, the Partnership mailed a Consent solicitation (the “2009 Consent”) to Limited Partners to determine whether the Limited Partners wished to extend the term of the Partnership for ten (10) years to November 30, 2020 (the “Extension Proposition”), or wished the Partnership to sell its assets, liquidate, and dissolve by November 30, 2010. Per the provisions of the 2009 Consent, once the General Partner had received Consent Cards from Limited Partners holding a majority of the Partnership Interests voting either “FOR” or “AGAINST” the Extension Proposition, the General Partner could declare the 2009 Consent solicitation process concluded and would be bound by the results of such process. In any event, unless the General Partner elected to extend the deadline of the Consent solicitation, the 2009 Consent solicitation processes and the opportunity to vote by returning a Consent Card, was to end on October 31, 2009. As of October 14, 2009, a majority of the Partnership Interests voted “FOR” the Extension Proposition and the General Partner declared the 2009 Consent solicitation process concluded as of that date. Therefore, the Partnership continues to operate as a going concern.

Significant Accounting Policies

Rental revenue from investment properties is recognized on the straight-line basis over the term of the respective lease. Percentage rents are only accrued when the tenant has reached the sales breakpoint stipulated in the lease.

Rents and other receivables are comprised of billed but uncollected amounts due for monthly rents and other charges, and amounts due for scheduled rent increases for which rentals have been earned and will be collected in the future under the terms of the leases. Receivables are recorded at management’s estimate of the amounts that will be collected.

As of December 31, 2009 and 2008 there were no recorded values for allowance for doubtful accounts based on an analysis of specific accounts and historical experience.

The Partnership considers its operations to be in only one segment, the operation of a portfolio of commercial real estate leased on a triple net basis, and therefore no segment disclosure is made.

Depreciation of the properties and improvements are provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the buildings and improvements.

Deferred charges represent leasing commissions paid when properties are leased and upon the negotiated extension of a lease. Leasing commissions are capitalized and amortized over the term of the lease. As of December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, accumulated amortization amounted to $54,095 and $46,250, respectively.

Property taxes, general maintenance, insurance and ground rent on the Partnership’s investment properties are the responsibility of the tenant. However, when a tenant fails to make the required tax payments or when a property becomes vacant (such as the vacant Park Forest, IL property formerly operated as a Popeye’s Famous Fried Chicken restaurant), the Partnership makes the appropriate property tax payments to avoid possible foreclosure of the property and in a property vacancy the Partnership pays for maintenance related to the vacant property. Such taxes, insurance and ground rent are accrued in the period in which the liability is incurred. The Partnership owns one (1) restaurant, which is located on a parcel of land where it has entered into a long-term ground lease. The tenant, Kentucky Fried Chicken, is responsible for the $3,400 per month ground lease payment.

The Partnership generally maintains cash in federally insured accounts in a bank that is participating in the FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under that program, through June 30, 2010, all non-interest bearing transaction accounts are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Partnership to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash investments and leases. The Partnership generally maintains cash and cash equivalents in federally insured accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Partnership has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk. Additionally, as of December 31, 2009, nine (9) of the Partnership’s fifteen (15) properties are leased to two (2) significant tenants who comprised 46% and 19%, respectively, of the total 2009 operating base rents.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities) at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Table of Contents

Assets disposed of or deemed to be classified as held for sale require the reclassification of current and previous years’ operations to discontinued operations in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applicable to “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets”. As such, prior year operating results for those properties considered as held for sale or properties no longer considered for sale have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation without effecting total income. When properties are considered held for sale, depreciation of the properties is discontinued, and the properties are valued at the lower of the depreciated cost or fair value, less costs to dispose. If circumstances arise that were previously considered unlikely, and, as a result, the property previously classified as held for sale is no longer to be sold, the property is reclassified as held and used. Such property is measured at the lower of its carrying amount (adjusted for any deprecation and amortization expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used) or fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.

Assets are classified as held for sale, generally, when all criteria within U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applicable to “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets” have been met.

The Partnership periodically reviews its long-lived assets, primarily real estate, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The Partnership’s review involves comparing current and future operating performance of the assets, the most significant of which is undiscounted operating cash flows, to the carrying value of the assets. Based on this analysis, a provision for possible loss is recognized, if any.

In September 2006, the FASB issued “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure”, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about fair value measures required under other accounting pronouncements but does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. The Partnership’s adoption of the provisions of this FASB issued “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure” on January 1, 2008, with respect to financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value did not have a material impact on its fair value measurements in its financial statements. The adoption of the provisions of this FASB issuance on January 1, 2009, with respect to nonrecurring fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and liabilities, including (but not limited to) the valuation of reporting units for the purpose of assessing goodwill impairment and the valuation of property and equipment when assessing long-lived asset impairment, did not have a material impact on how the Partnership estimated its fair value measurements but did result in increased disclosures about fair value measurements in the Partnership’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009. See Note 11 for further disclosure.

U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applicable to Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires entities to disclose the fair value of all financial assets and liabilities for which it is practicable to estimate. Fair value is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The general partner of the Partnership, The Provo Group, Inc. (“TPG”), believes that the carrying value of the Partnership’s assets (exclusive of the Investment Property) and liabilities approximate fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

No provision for federal income taxes has been made, as any liability for such taxes would be that of the individual partners rather than the Partnership. At December 31, 2009 the tax basis of the Partnership’s assets exceeded the amounts reported in the December 31, 2009 financial statements by approximately $7,135,000.

The Partnership is not subject to federal income tax because its income and losses are includable in the tax returns of its partners, but may be subject to certain state taxes. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has provided guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, disclosed and presented in the financial statements. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the entity’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained when challenged or when examined by the applicable taxing authority. For the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, Management has determined that there are no material uncertain income tax positions. Tax returns filed by the Partnership generally are subject to examination by U.S. and state taxing authorities for the years ended after December 31, 2005.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2010, the way in which a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar) rights should be consolidated will change. The determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity will be based on, among other things, an entity’s purpose and design and a company’s ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. The Partnership does not expect this will have a material effect on its results of operations or financial position.

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance which revises and updates previously issued guidance related to variable interest entities. This new guidance revises the previous guidance by eliminating the exemption for qualifying special purposes entities, by establishing a new approach for determining who should consolidate a variable interest entity and by changing when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a variable interest entity. The Partnership will adopt this new guidance on January 1, 2010. The Partnership does not expect the adoption of the new guidance to have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial position or results of operations.

2. REGULATORY INVESTIGATION:

A preliminary investigation during 1992 by the Office of Commissioner of Securities for the State of Wisconsin and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Investigation”) revealed that during at least the four years ended December 31, 1992, the former general partners of the Partnership, Gary J. DiVall (“DiVall”) and Paul E. Magnuson (“Magnuson”) had transferred substantial cash assets of the Partnership and two affiliated publicly registered limited partnerships, DiVall Insured Income Fund Limited Partnership (“DiVall 1”) and DiVall Income Properties 3 Limited Partnership (“DiVall 3”) (collectively the “Partnerships”) to various other entities previously sponsored by or otherwise affiliated with DiVall and Magnuson. The unauthorized transfers were in violation of the respective Partnership Agreements and resulted, in part, from material weaknesses in the internal control system of the Partnerships.

Subsequent to discovery, and in response to the regulatory inquiries, a third-party Permanent Manager, The Provo Group, Inc. (“TPG”), was appointed (effective February 8, 1993) to assume responsibility for daily operations and assets of the Partnerships as well as to develop and execute a plan of restoration for the Partnerships. Effective May 26, 1993, the Limited Partners, by written consent of a majority of interests, elected the Permanent Manager, TPG, as General Partner. TPG terminated the former general partners by accepting their tendered resignations.

In 1993, the current General Partner estimated an aggregate recovery of $3 million for the Partnerships. At that time, an allowance was established against amounts due from former general partners and their affiliates reflecting the estimated $3 million receivable. This net receivable was allocated among the Partnerships based on each Partnership’s pro rata share of the total misappropriation, and restoration costs and recoveries have been allocated based on the same percentage. Through December 31, 2009, approximately $5,899,000 of recoveries have been received which exceeded the original estimate of $3 million. As a result, from January 1, 1996 through December 31, 2009, the Partnership has recognized a total of approximately $1,209,000 as recovery of amounts previously written off in the statements of income, which represents its share of the excess recovery. The current General Partner continues to pursue recoveries of the misappropriated funds, however, no further significant recoveries are anticipated.

3. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES:

The total cost of the investment properties and specialty leasehold improvements includes the original purchase price plus acquisition fees and other capitalized costs paid to an affiliate of the former general partners.

As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership owned fourteen (14) fully constructed fast-food restaurants and one vacant property located in Park Forest, IL which was formerly operated as a Popeye’s Famous Fried Chicken restaurant (tenant ceased operations in June of 2008, and the lease was terminated and the property vacated in July of 2008). The fourteen (14) properties with operating tenants are composed of the following: nine (9) Wendy’s restaurants, one (1) Denny’s restaurant, one (1) Applebee’s restaurant, one (1) Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant, one (1) Chinese Super Buffet restaurant, and one (1) Daytona’s All Sports Café. The fifteen (15) properties are located in a total of seven (7) states.

The Partnership has been unsuccessful in finding a new tenant for the vacant Park Forest, IL property. The Partnership agreed to sell the property for $50,000 to a prospective purchaser. Negotiations ended due to uncertainty over 2008 real estate tax obligations due in 2009. The Partnership had no other interested parties for this vacant property in a distressed location. Accordingly, in the Third Quarter of 2008, the carrying value of the vacant Park Forest, IL property was reduced by $267,186 to its estimated fair market value of $50,000. The reduction included $129,450 related to land and $137,736 related to buildings. The land carrying value of the vacant Park Forest, IL property was further reduced by $50,000 in the Fourth Quarter of 2009 to an estimated fair market value of zero.

During 2009, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership recognized income from discontinued operations of approximately $42,000, $1,432,000 and $1,099,000, respectively. The 2009, 2008 and 2007 income from discontinued operations is attributable to the Third Quarter of 2009 reclassification of the Panda Buffet restaurant- Grand Forks, ND (“Panda Buffet”) property to property held for sale (executed sales contract dated September 30, 2009). The 2009 income from discontinued operations includes the Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $29,000 on the sale of the Panda Buffet property. The 2008 and 2007 income from discontinued operations is also attributable to the reclassification of the Wendy’s- 1515 Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property and the Blockbuster, Ogden, UT property to properties held for sale. The Wendy’s property was sold in May of 2008 under the terms of the Sales Contract dated April 10, 2008 and the Blockbuster property was sold in December of 2008. The 2008 income from discontinued

operations includes the Second Quarter net gain of approximately $659,000 on the sale of the Wendy’s- 1515 Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property and the Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $601,000 on the sale of the Blockbuster. The 2008 income from discontinued operations also includes the First Quarter of 2008 collection of $25,000 in earnest money in relation to the termination of the Wendy’s- Savannah Hwy., Charleston, SC property sales contract dated August 21, 2007. Discontinued operations for 2007 included income related to the Sunrise Preschool, Phoenix, AZ property which was reclassified to properties held for sale in the Second Quarter of 2006 and sold in April of 2007. The 2007 income from discontinued operations included a Second Quarter net gain on the sale of the Sunrise Preschool property of approximately $862,000 and a Fourth Quarter net gain of approximately $25,000 on the sale of a small strip of the Popeye’s- Park Forest, IL land to the Illinois Department of Transportation to be used as street right of way

There were no components of property held for sale in the balance sheets as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Other Investment in Properties Information

According to the Partnership Agreement, the former general partners were to commit 80% of the original offering proceeds to investment in properties. Upon the close of the offering, approximately 75% of the original proceeds were invested in the Partnership’s properties.

Certain leases provide the tenant with the option to acquire the property occupied by the tenant. The General Partner is not aware of any unfavorable purchase options in relation to the original cost or fair market value of the property at the time the option was granted, contained in any of the Partnership’s existing leases.

4. PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT:

The Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership was amended, effective as of November 9, 2009, to extend the term of the Partnership to November 30, 2020, or until dissolution prior thereto pursuant to the consent of the majority of the outstanding Units. The Second Amendment to the Partnership Agreement was attached to the September 30, 2009 Form 10-Q in Exhibit 4.1.

The Partnership Agreement, prior to an amendment effective May 26, 1993, provided that, for financial reporting and income tax purposes, net profits or losses from operations were allocated 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the general partners. The Partnership Agreement also provided for quarterly cash distributions from Net Cash Receipts, as defined, within 60 days after the last day of the first full calendar quarter following the date of release of the subscription funds from escrow, and each calendar quarter thereafter, in which such funds were available for distribution with respect to such quarter. Such distributions were to be made 90% to Limited Partners and 10% to the former general partners, provided, however, that quarterly distributions were to be cumulative and were not to be made to the former general partners unless and until each Limited Partner had received a distribution from Net Cash Receipts in an amount equal to 10% per annum, cumulative simple return on his or her Adjusted Original Capital, as defined, from the Return Calculation Date, as defined.

Net Proceeds, as originally defined, were to be distributed as follows: (a) to the Limited Partners, an amount equal to 100% of their Adjusted Original Capital; (b) then, to the Limited Partners, an amount necessary to provide each Limited Partner a Liquidation Preference equal to a 13.5% per annum, cumulative simple return on Adjusted Original Capital from the Return Calculation date including in the calculation of such return all prior distributions of Net Cash Receipts and any prior distributions of Net Proceeds under this clause; and (c) then, to Limited Partners, 90% and to the General Partners, 10%, of the remaining Net Proceeds available for distribution.

On May 26, 1993, pursuant to the results of a solicitation of written consents from the Limited Partners, the Partnership Agreement was amended to replace the former general partners and amend various sections of the agreement. The former general partners were replaced as General Partner by The Provo Group, Inc., an Illinois corporation. Under the terms of the amendment, net profits or losses from operations are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the current General Partner. The amendment also provided for distributions from Net Cash Receipts to be made 99% to Limited Partners and 1% to the current General Partner, provided that quarterly distributions are cumulative and are not to be made to the current General Partner unless and until each Limited Partner has received a distribution from Net Cash Receipts in an amount equal to 10% per annum, cumulative simple return on his or her Adjusted Original Capital, as defined, from the Return Calculation Date, as defined, except to the extent needed by the General Partner to pay its federal and state income taxes on the income allocated to it attributable to such year. Distributions paid to the General Partner are based on the estimated tax liability resulting from allocated income. Subsequent to the filing of the General Partner’s income tax returns, a true up with actual distributions is made.

The provisions regarding distribution of Net Proceeds, as defined, were also amended to provide that Net Proceeds are to be distributed as follows: (a) to the Limited Partners, an amount equal to 100% of their Adjusted Original Capital; (b) then, to the Limited Partners, an amount necessary to provide each Limited Partner a Liquidation Preference equal to a 13.5% per annum, cumulative simple return on Adjusted Original Capital from the Return Calculation Date including in the calculation of such return on all prior distributions of Net Cash Receipts and any prior distributions of Net Proceeds under this clause, except to the extent needed by the General Partner to pay its federal and state income tax on the income allocated to it attributable to such year; and (c) then, to Limited Partners, 99%, and to the General Partner, 1%, of remaining Net Proceeds available for distribution.

Table of Contents

Additionally, per the amendment of the Partnership Agreement dated May 26, 1993, the total compensation paid to all persons for the sale of the investment properties is limited to a competitive real estate commission, not to exceed 6% of the contract price for the sale of the property. The General Partner may receive up to one-half of the competitive real estate commission, not to exceed 3%, provided that the General Partner provides a substantial amount of services in the sales effort. It is further provided that a portion of the amount of such fees payable to the General Partner is subordinated to its success in recovering the funds misappropriated by the former general partners. (See Note 7)

Effective June 1, 1993, the Partnership Agreement was amended to (i) change the definition of “Distribution Quarter” to be consistent with calendar quarters, and (ii) change the distribution provisions to subordinate the General Partner’s share of distributions from Net Cash Receipts and Net Proceeds, except to the extent necessary for the General Partner to pay its federal and state income taxes on Partnership income allocated to the General Partner. Because these amendments do not adversely affect the rights of the Limited Partners, pursuant to section 10.2 of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner made the amendments without a vote of the Limited Partners.

5. LEASES:

Original lease terms for the majority of the investment properties were generally 5 - 20 years from their inception. The leases generally provide for minimum rents and additional rents based upon percentages of gross sales in excess of specified breakpoints. The lessee is responsible for occupancy costs such as maintenance, insurance, real estate taxes, and utilities. Accordingly, these amounts are not reflected in the statements of income except in circumstances where, in management’s opinion, the Partnership will be required to pay such costs to preserve its assets (i.e., payment of past-due real estate taxes). Management has determined that the leases are properly classified as operating leases; therefore, rental income is reported when earned on a straight-line basis and the cost of the property, excluding the cost of the land, is depreciated over its estimated useful life.

As of December 31, 2009, the aggregate minimum operating lease payments to be received under the current operating leases for the Partnership’s properties are as follows:

Operating percentage rentals included in rental income from operations in 2009, 2008, and 2007 were approximately $399,000, $427,000, and $444,000, respectively. At December 31, 2009, rents and other receivables included $43,000 of billed and $350,000 of unbilled percentage rents. At December 31, 2008, rents and other receivables included $2,000 of billed and $417,000 of unbilled percentage rents. As of December 31, 2009, only approximately $2,000 of these 2008 percentage rents had not been collected (the amount was related to the Denny’s- Northern, Phoenix, AZ property and was written-off as uncollectible in the Third Quarter of 2009).

On September 4, 2008, three (3) of the properties were leased to Wendcharles I, LLC (“Wendcharles”), a franchisee of Wendy’s restaurants. On July 2, 2007, six (6) of the properties were leased to Wendgusta, LLC (“Wendgusta”), a franchisee of Wendy’s restaurants. Wendcharles and Wendgusta operating base rents accounted for 19% and 46%, respectively, of the total 2009 operating base rents.

6. TRANSACTIONS WITH GENERAL PARTNER AND ITS AFFILIATES:

Pursuant to the terms of the Permanent Manager Agreement (“PMA”) executed in 1993, the General Partner receives a Base Fee for managing the Partnership equal to 4% of gross receipts, subject to an initial minimum amount of $159,000. The PMA also provides that the Partnership is responsible for reimbursement for office rent and related office overhead (“Expenses”) up to an initial annual maximum of $13,250. Both the Base Fee and Expense reimbursement are subject to annual Consumer Price Index based adjustments. Effective March 1, 2009, the minimum annual Base Fee and the maximum Expense reimbursement increased by 3.84% from the prior year, which represents the allowable annual Consumer Price Index adjustment per the PMA. Therefore, as of March 1, 2009, the minimum monthly Base Fee paid by the Partnership was raised to $20,233 and the maximum monthly Expense reimbursement was raised to $1,632.

For purposes of computing the 4% overall fee, gross receipts includes amounts recovered in connection with the misappropriation of assets by the former general partners and their affiliates. To date, TPG has received fees from the Partnership totaling $58,893 to date on the amounts recovered, which includes fees received for 2009, 2008 and 2007 of $459, $535 and $497, respectively. The fees received from the Partnership on the amounts recovered reduce the 4% minimum fee by that same amount.

Amounts paid and/or accrued to the General Partner and its affiliates for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007, are as follows:

At December 31, 2009 and 2008, $1,819 and $4,465, respectively, was payable to the General Partner.

7. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES:

According to the Partnership Agreement, as amended, the General Partner may receive a disposition fee not to exceed 3% of the contract price of the sale of investment properties. Fifty percent (50%) of all such disposition fees earned by the General Partner is to be escrowed until the aggregate amount of recovery of the funds misappropriated from the Partnerships by the former general partners is greater than $4,500,000. Upon reaching such recovery level, full disposition fees will thereafter be payable and fifty percent (50%) of the previously escrowed amounts will be paid to the General Partner. At such time as the recovery exceeds $6,000,000 in the aggregate, the remaining escrowed disposition fees will be paid to the General Partner. If such levels of recovery are not achieved, the General Partner will contribute the amounts escrowed toward the recovery. In lieu of an escrow, 50% of all such disposition fees have been paid directly to a restoration account and then distributed among the three original Partnerships. Fifty

Table of Contents

percent (50%) of the total amount paid to the recovery was refunded to the General Partner during March 1996 after exceeding the recovery level of $4,500,000. The General Partner does not expect any future refunds, as the possibility of achieving the $6,000,000 recovery threshold appears remote.

8. PMA INDEMNIFICATION TRUST:

The PMA provides that the Permanent Manager will be indemnified from any claims or expenses arising out of or relating to the Permanent Manager serving in such capacity or as substitute general partner, so long as such claims do not arise from fraudulent or criminal misconduct by the Permanent Manager. The PMA provides that the Partnership fund this indemnification obligation by establishing a reserve of up to $250,000 of Partnership assets which would not be subject to the claims of the Partnership’s creditors. An Indemnification Trust (“Trust”) serving such purposes has been established at United Missouri Bank, N.A. The corpus of the Trust has been fully funded with Partnership assets. Funds are invested in U.S. Treasury securities. In addition, $200,647 of earnings has been credited to the Trust as of December 31, 2009. The rights of the Permanent Manager to the Trust will be terminated upon the earliest to occur of the following events: (i) the written release by the Permanent Manager of any and all interest in the Trust; (ii) the expiration of the longest statute of limitations relating to a potential claim which might be brought against the Permanent Manager and which is subject to indemnification; or (iii) a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Permanent Manager shall have no liability to any person with respect to a claim which is subject to indemnification under the PMA. At such time as the indemnity provisions expire or the full indemnity is paid, any funds remaining in the Trust will revert back to the general funds of the Partnership.

9. FORMER GENERAL PARTNERS’ CAPITAL ACCOUNTS:

The capital account balance of the former general partners as of May 26, 1993, the date of their removal as general partners pursuant to the results of a solicitation of written consents from the Limited Partners, was a deficit of $840,229. At December 31, 1993, the former general partners’ deficit capital account balance was reallocated to the Limited Partners.

10. NOTE RECEIVABLE:

A sales contract was executed on September 30, 2009 for the installment sale of the Panda Buffet restaurant property to the tenant for $520,000 (sales amount was to be reduced to $450,000 if closing occurred on or before November 15, 2009). The closing date on the sale of the property was November 12, 2009 at a sales price of $450,000. The buyer paid $150,000 at closing with the remaining balance of $300,000 being delivered in the form of a Promissory note (“Buyers Note”) to the Partnership. A net gain on the sale of approximately $29,000 was recognized in the Fourth Quarter of 2009. The Buyers Note reflects a term of three years, an interest rate of 7.25%, and principal and interest payments paid monthly and principal amortized over a period of ten years beginning December 1, 2009 with a balloon payment after year three. Pursuant to the Buyers Note, there will be no penalty for early payment of principal. Buyers Note also requires the buyer to escrow property taxes with the Partnership beginning January of 2010.

Per the Buyer’s Note amortization schedule, the monthly payments are to total approximately $3,522 per month. The first payment was received by the Partnership on November 30, 2009 and included approximately $2,374 in principal and $1,148 in interest.

11. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

The Partnership has determined the fair value based on hierarchy that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Inputs are broadly defined as assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the accounting principle are described below:

 

Level 1.    Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2.    Quoted prices for similar investments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar investments in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the investment.
Level 3.    Unobservable inputs for which there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information in the circumstances and may require significant management judgment or estimation and the use of discounted cash flow models to value the investment.

The fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The Partnership’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). Total losses of $50,000 represent an impairment charge related to the Park Forest, IL property recorded in 2009.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

On February 12, 2010, the Partnership made distributions to the Limited Partners of $390,000, which amounted to $8.43 per Interest.

The Partnership has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued.

Item 9A(T).     Control and Procedures

Controls and Procedures

As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership’s Management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have concluded that the Partnership’s controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures as required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Partnership’s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). The Partnership’s Management assessed the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, the Partnership’s management used the criteria set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Release No. 34-55959 and the interpretive guidance issued there under (as permitted in Rules 13a-15(c) and 15d-15(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). The Partnership’s management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2009, the internal control over financial reporting is effective based on these criteria. Further, there were no changes in the Partnership’s controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2009, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal controls over financial reporting.

The Partnership’s Management, does not expect that the disclosure controls and procedures of the internal controls will prevent all error and misstatements. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

This Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Partnership’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Partnership to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

 

Item 9B. Other Information

On July 31, 2009, the Partnership solicited the consent of the Limited Partners, pursuant to a Consent solicitation statement on Schedule 14A, to amend the Partnership Agreement to extend the term of the Partnership to November 30, 2020 (the “Extension Proposition”). As of October 14, 2009, holders of a majority of the outstanding Limited Partner Interests voted in favor of the Extension Proposition and the Consent solicitation was closed. The results of the Consent solicitation were as follows: 23,886.4400 votes “FOR”, 7,203.9250 votes “Against”, 238.5000 votes “Abstain”. The Amendment to Amended Agreement of Limited Partnership dated as of November 9, 2009, was filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Partnership Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed November 12, 2009.

PART III

 

Item 10. Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant

The Partnership does not have any employees, executive officers, or directors and therefore no board committees.

TPG is an Illinois corporation with its principal office at 1100 Main Street, Suite 1830, in Kansas City, Missouri 64105. TPG was elected General Partner by vote of the Limited Partners effective on May 26, 1993. Prior to such date, TPG had been managing the Partnership since February 8, 1993, under the terms of the Permanent Manager Agreement as amended (“PMA”), which remains in effect. See Items 1 and 13 hereof for additional information about the PMA and the election of TPG as General Partner.

The executive officer and director of the General Partner who control the affairs of the Partnership are as follows:

Bruce A. Provo, Age 59 - President, Founder and Director.

Mr. Provo has been involved in the management of real estate and other asset portfolios since 1979. Since he founded the company in 1985, Mr. Provo has been President of TPG. From 1982 to 1986, Mr. Provo served as President and Chief Operating Officer of the North Kansas City Development Company (“NKCDC”), North Kansas City, Missouri. NKCDC was founded in 1903 and the assets of the company were sold in December 1985 for $102,500,000. NKCDC owned commercial and industrial properties, including an office park and a retail district, as well as apartment complexes, motels, recreational facilities, fast food restaurants, and other properties. NKCDC’s holdings consisted of over 100 separate properties and constituted approximately 20% of the privately held real property in North Kansas City, Missouri (a four square mile municipality). Following the sale of the company’s real estate, Mr. Provo served as the President, Chief Executive Officer and Liquidating Trustee of NKCDC from 1986 to 1991.

Mr. Provo graduated from Miami University, Oxford, Ohio in 1972 with a B.S. in Accounting. He became a Certified Public Accountant in 1974 and was a manager in the banking and financial services division of Arthur Andersen LLP prior to joining Rubloff Development Corporation in 1979. From 1979 through 1985, Mr. Provo served as Vice President - Finance and then as President of Rubloff Development Corporation.

Since the founding of TPG in 1985, Mr. Provo has also founded various entities engaged in unique businesses, but grouped under an informal umbrella known as The Provo Group of Companies.

The Advisory Board, although its members are not “Directors” or “Executive Officers” of the Partnership, provides advisory oversight to Management of the Partnership and consists of:

William Arnold - Investment Broker. Mr. Arnold works as a financial planner, real estate broker, and investment advisor at his company, Arnold & Company. Mr. Arnold graduated with a Master’s Degree from the University of Wisconsin and is a Certified Financial Planner. He serves as a board representative for the brokerage community.

Jesse Small - CPA. Mr. Small has been a well-known, respected tax and business consultant in Hallandale, FL for more than 30 years. Mr. Small has a Master’s Degree in Economics. Mr. Small is a Limited Partner representing the DiVall 2 Limited Partners. During the past five years after retiring from the accounting profession, Mr. Small has been developing property on the east and west coast of Florida.

Albert Kramer - Retired. Mr. Kramer is now retired, but previously worked as Tax Litigation Manager for Phillips Petroleum Company, now known as ConocoPhillips. His education includes undergraduate and MBA degrees from Harvard and a J.D. Degree from South Texas College of Law. Mr. Kramer is a Limited Partner representing the DiVall 2 Limited Partners.

Code of Ethics

The Partnership has no executive officers or any employees and, accordingly, has not adopted a formal code of ethics.

Mr. Provo and TPG require that all personnel, including all employees, officers and directors: engage in honest and ethical conduct; ensure full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure; comply with all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; and report to Mr. Provo any deviation from these principles. Because the organization is composed of very few individuals, and because Mr. Provo is the ultimate decision maker in all instances, TPG has not adopted a formal code of ethics. Mr. Provo, as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of TPG, mitigates and resolves all conflicts to the best of his ability and determines appropriate actions if necessary to deter violations and promote accountability, consistent with his fiduciary obligations to TPG and the fiduciary obligations of TPG to the Partnership.

 

Item 11. Executive Compensation

The Partnership has not paid any “executive compensation” to the corporate General Partner or to the directors and officers of the General Partner. The General Partner’s participation in the income of the Partnership is set forth in the Partnership Agreement, which is filed as Exhibits 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 hereto. The General Partner received management fees and expense reimbursements during the year.

See Item 13, below, and Note 6 to the Financial Statements in Item 8 hereof for further discussion of payments by the Partnership to the General Partner and the former general partners. The principal executive officer of the General Partner is not compensated by the Partnership for controlling the affairs of the Partnership, except to the extent he may receive remuneration as a result of his management of the General Partner and its management fee received from the Partnership.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Pursuant to the terms of the Permanent Manager Agreement (“PMA”), the General Partner receives a Base Fee for managing the Partnership equal to 4% of gross receipts, subject to a $159,000 minimum annually. The PMA also provides that the Partnership is responsible for reimbursement for office rent and related office overhead (“Expenses”) up to a maximum of $13,250 annually. Both the Base Fee and Expense reimbursement are subject to annual Consumer Price Index based adjustments. Effective March 1, 2009, the minimum annual Base Fee and the maximum annual Expense reimbursement increased by 3.84%, which represents the allowable annual Consumer Price Index adjustment per the PMA. Therefore, as of March 1, 2009, the minimum monthly Base Fee paid by the Partnership was raised to $20,233 and the maximum monthly Expense reimbursement was raised to $1,632.

Additionally, TPG is allowed up to one-half of the Competitive Real Estate Commission, not to exceed 3% upon the disposition of assets. The payment of a portion of such fees is subordinated to TPG’s success at recovering the funds misappropriated by the former general partners.

The PMA had an original expiration date of December 31, 2002. At the end of the original term, it was extended three years by TPG to an expiration date of December 31, 2005 and then an additional three years to an expiration date of December 31, 2008. Effective January 1, 2009, the PMA was renewed by TPG for the two-year period ending December 31, 2010. The PMA can be terminated earlier (a) by a vote at any time by a majority in interest of the Limited Partners, (b) upon the dissolution and winding up of the Partnership, (c) upon the entry of an order of a court finding that the Permanent Manager has engaged in fraud or other like misconduct or has shown itself to be incompetent in carrying out its duties under the Partnership Agreement, or (d) upon sixty (60) days written notice from the Permanent Manager to the Limited Partners of the Partnership. Upon termination of the PMA, other than by the voluntary action of TPG, TPG shall be paid a termination fee of one month’s Base Fee allocable to the Partnership, subject to a minimum of $13,250. In the event that TPG is terminated by action of a substitute general partner, TPG shall also receive, as part of this termination fee, 4% of any proceeds recovered with respect to the obligations of the former general partners, whenever such proceeds are collected.

Under the PMA, TPG shall be indemnified by the Partnership, DiVall and Magnuson, and their controlled affiliates, and shall be held harmless from all claims of any party to the Partnership Agreement and from any third party including, without limitation, the Limited Partners of the Partnership, for any and all liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from or related to claims relating to or arising from the PMA or its status as Permanent Manager. The indemnification does not extend to claims arising from fraud or criminal misconduct of TPG as established by court findings. To the extent possible, the Partnership is to provide TPG with appropriate errors and omissions, officer’s liability or similar insurance coverage, at no cost to TPG. In addition, TPG was granted the right to establish an Indemnification Trust in an original amount, not to exceed $250,000, solely for the purpose of funding such indemnification obligations. Once a determination has been made that no such claims can or will be made against TPG, the balance of the Trust will become unrestricted property of the Partnership. The corpus of the Trust has been fully funded with Partnership assets.
