CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q of Wells Real Estate Fund XII, L.P. (the "Partnership," "we," "our," "us," or the "Registrant") other than historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies, and prospects and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "believe," "continue," or other similar words. Specifically, we consider, among others, statements concerning future operating results and cash flows, our ability to meet future obligations, and the amount and timing of any future distributions to limited partners to be forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date this report is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). We make no representations or warranties (express or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Any such forward-looking statements are subject to unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors and are based on a number of assumptions involving judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive, and market conditions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately. To the extent that our assumptions differ from actual results, our ability to meet such forward-looking statements, including our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations, provide distributions to partners, and maintain the value of our real estate properties, may be significantly hindered. See Item 1A in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 for a discussion of some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements.

CONDENSED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2013 (unaudited)
1.
ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Wells Real Estate Fund XII, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a Georgia public limited partnership with Leo F. Wells, III and Wells Partners, L.P. ("Wells Partners"), a Georgia nonpublic limited partnership, serving as its general partners (collectively, the "General Partners"). Wells Capital, Inc. ("Wells Capital") serves as the corporate general partner of Wells Partners. Wells Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Real Estate Funds, Inc. ("WREF"). Leo F. Wells, III is the president and sole director of Wells Capital and the president, sole director, and sole owner of WREF. The Partnership was formed on September 15, 1998 for the purpose of acquiring, developing, constructing, owning, operating, improving, leasing and managing income-producing commercial properties for investment purposes. Upon subscription, limited partners elected to have their units treated as Cash Preferred Units or Tax Preferred Units. Thereafter, the limited partners have the right to change their prior elections to have some or all of their units treated as Cash Preferred Units or Tax Preferred Units one time during each quarterly accounting period. Limited partners may vote to, among other things: (a) amend the partnership agreement, subject to certain limitations; (b) change the business purpose or investment objectives of the Partnership; (c) add or remove a general partner; (d) elect a new general partner; (e) dissolve the Partnership; (f) authorize a merger or a consolidation of the Partnership; and (g) approve a sale involving all or substantially all of the Partnership's assets, subject to certain limitations. A majority vote on any of the matters described above will bind the Partnership without the concurrence of the General Partners. Each limited partnership unit has equal voting rights regardless of class.
On September 15, 1998, the Partnership was organized under the laws of the state of Georgia. On March 22, 1999, the Partnership commenced a public offering of up to $70,000,000 of Cash Preferred or Tax Preferred limited partnership units ($10.00 per unit) pursuant to a Registration Statement filed on Form S-11 under the Securities Act. The offering was terminated on March 21, 2001, at which time the Partnership had sold approximately 2,688,861 Cash Preferred Units and 872,258 Tax Preferred Units for total limited partner capital contributions of $35,611,192.
The Partnership owns interests in all of its real estate assets through joint ventures with other entities affiliated with the General Partners and Piedmont Operating Partnership, LP ("Piedmont OP"), formerly known as Wells Operating Partnership, L.P. Piedmont OP is a Delaware limited partnership with Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont REIT"), formerly known as Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc., serving as its general partner. Piedmont REIT is a Maryland corporation that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Partnership have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and in accordance with such rules and regulations, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the General Partners, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments

Page 9


that are of a normal and recurring nature and necessary to fairly and consistently present the results for these periods. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full-year results. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Investment in Joint Ventures
The Partnership has evaluated the Joint Ventures and concluded that none are variable interest entities. The Partnership does not have control over the operations of the Joint Ventures; however, it does exercise significant influence. Approval by the Partnership as well as the other joint venture partners is required for any major decision or any action that would materially affect the Joint Ventures or their real property investments. Accordingly, the Partnership accounts for its investments in the Joint Ventures using the equity method of accounting, whereby original investments are recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for contributions, distributions, and net income (loss) attributable to the Partnership. Pursuant to the terms of the joint venture agreements, all income (loss) and distributions are allocated to joint venture partners in accordance with their respective ownership interests. Distributions of net cash from operations, if available, are generally distributed to the joint venture partners on a quarterly basis.
Evaluating the Recoverability of Real Estate Assets
The Partnership continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets owned through the Partnership's investment in the Joint Ventures may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present which suggest that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of the real estate assets by determining whether the respective carrying values will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition for assets held for use, or with the estimated fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale. In the event that the expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use, or the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale do not exceed the respective asset carrying value, management adjusts the real estate assets to their respective estimated fair values, pursuant to the provisions of the property, plant, and equipment accounting standard for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, and recognizes an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are determined based on the following information, dependent upon availability: (i) recently quoted market price(s) for the subject property, or highly comparable properties, under sufficiently active and normal market conditions, or (ii) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated residual value. The Partnership has determined that there have been no additional impairments in the carrying value of any of its real estate assets; however, certain of the Partnership's assets may be carried at an amount more than could be realized in a current disposition transaction.
While various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate fair value depending on the nature of the asset or liability, the accounting standard for fair value measurements and disclosures describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Partnership has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity's own assumptions, as little, if any, related market activity or information is available. Examples of Level 3 inputs include estimated holding periods, discount rates, market capitalization rates, expected lease rental rates, timing of new leases, and sales prices; additionally, the Partnership may assign an estimated probability-weighting to more than one fair value estimate based on the Partnership's assessment of the likelihood of the respective underlying assumptions occurring as of the evaluation date. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Partnership's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability.
Projections of expected future cash flows require that the Partnership estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. The subjectivity of assumptions used in the future cash flow analysis, including discount rates, could result in an incorrect assessment of the property's future cash flows and fair value, and could result in the misstatement of the carrying value of real estate assets held by the Joint Ventures and net income (loss) of the Partnership.

Distribution of Net Cash from Operations
Net cash from operations, if available and unless reserved, is generally distributed quarterly to the limited partners as follows:
First, to all Cash Preferred limited partners on a per-unit basis until each limited partner has received distributions equal to a 10% per annum return on his respective net capital contributions, as defined.
Second, to the General Partners until the General Partners receive distributions equal to 10% of the total cumulative distributions paid by the Partnership to date.
Third, to the Cash Preferred limited partners on a per-unit basis and the General Partners allocated on a basis of 90% and 10%, respectively.
No distributions of net cash from operations will be made to limited partners holding Tax Preferred Units.
Distribution of Net Sale Proceeds
Upon the sale of properties, unless reserved, net sale proceeds will be distributed in the following order:
In the event that the particular property sold is sold for a price that is less than the original property purchase price, to the limited partners holding Cash Preferred Units until they have received an amount equal to the excess of the original property purchase price over the price for which the property was sold, limited to the amount of depreciation, amortization, and cost recovery deductions taken by the limited partners holding Tax Preferred Units with respect to such property;
To limited partners holding units which at any time have been treated as Tax Preferred Units until each limited partner has received an amount necessary to equal the net cash available for distribution previously received by the limited partners holding Cash Preferred Units on a per-unit basis;
To limited partners on a per-unit basis until each limited partner has received 100% of his net capital contributions, as defined;
To all limited partners on a per-unit basis until each limited partner has received a cumulative 10% per annum return on his net capital contributions, as defined;
To limited partners on a per-unit basis until each limited partner has received an amount equal to his preferential limited partner return (defined as the sum of a 10% per annum cumulative return on net capital contributions for all periods during which the units were treated as Cash Preferred Units and a 15% per annum cumulative return on net capital contributions for all periods during which the units were treated as Tax Preferred Units);
To the General Partners until they have received 100% of their capital contributions, as defined;
Then, if limited partners have received any excess limited partner distributions (defined as distributions to limited partners over the life of their investment in the Partnership in excess of their net capital contributions, as defined, plus their preferential limited partner return), to the General Partners until they have received distributions equal to 20% of the sum of any such excess limited partner distributions plus distributions made to the General Partners pursuant to this provision; and
Thereafter, 80% to the limited partners on a per-unit basis and 20% to the General Partners.
Allocations of Net Income, Net Loss, and Gain on Sale
For the purpose of determining allocations per the partnership agreement, net income is defined as net income recognized by the Partnership, excluding deductions for depreciation, amortization, and cost recovery and the gain on the sale of assets. Net income, as defined, of the Partnership will be allocated each year in the same proportion that net cash from operations is distributed to the partners holding Cash Preferred Units and the General Partners. To the extent the Partnership's net income in any year exceeds net cash from operations, such excess net income will be allocated 99% to the limited partners holding Cash Preferred Units and 1% to the General Partners.
Net loss, depreciation, amortization, and cost recovery deductions for each fiscal year will be allocated as follows: (a) 99% to the limited partners holding Tax Preferred Units and 1% to the General Partners until their capital accounts are reduced to zero; (b) then, to any partner having a positive balance in his capital account in an amount not to exceed such positive balance; and (c) thereafter, to the General Partners.
Gain on the sale or exchange of the Partnership's properties will be allocated generally in the same manner that the net proceeds from such sale are distributed to partners after the following allocations are made, if applicable: (a) allocations made pursuant to the qualified income offset provisions of the partnership agreement; (b) allocations to partners having negative capital accounts until all negative capital accounts have been restored to zero; and (c) allocations to limited partners holding Tax Preferred Units in amounts equal to the deductions for depreciation, amortization, and cost recovery previously allocated to them with respect to

Page 11


the specific property sold, but not in excess of the amount of gain on sale recognized by the Partnership with respect to the sale of such property.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In April 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements: Topic Liquidation Basis of Accounting ("ASU 2013-07"). ASU 2013-07 requires an entity to prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Liquidation is considered imminent when the likelihood is remote that the organization will return from liquidation and either: (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties; or (b) a plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces. ASU 2013-07 will be effective for the Partnership beginning on January 1, 2014. The Partnership expects that the adoption of ASU 2013-07 will not have a material impact on its financial statements or disclosures.

("Wells Management"), an affiliate of the General Partners, receives compensation for the management and leasing of the Partnership's properties owned through the Joint Ventures equal to the lesser of (a) 2.5% for management services and 2% for leasing services of the gross revenues collected monthly, plus a separate competitive fee for the one-time initial lease-up of newly constructed properties in an amount not to exceed the fee customarily charged in arm's-length transactions by others rendering similar services in the same geographic area for similar properties, which is assessed periodically based on market studies, or (b) in the case of commercial properties leased on a long-term net basis (ten or more years), the maximum property management fee from such leases shall be 1% of the gross revenues generally paid over the life of the leases except for a one-time initial leasing fee of 3% of the gross revenues on each lease payable over the first five full years of the original lease term. Management and leasing fees are paid by the Joint Ventures and, accordingly, are included in equity in income of joint ventures in the accompanying statements of operations. The Partnership's share of management and leasing fees and lease acquisition costs incurred through the Joint Ventures and payable to Wells Management is $8,732 and $8,551 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Administrative Reimbursements
Wells Capital, the corporate general partner of Wells Partners, one of the Partnership's General Partners, and Wells Management perform certain administrative services for the Partnership, relating to accounting, property management, and other partnership administration, and incur the related expenses. Such expenses are allocated among other entities affiliated with the General Partners based on estimates of the amount of time dedicated to each fund by individual administrative personnel. In the opinion of the General Partners, this allocation is a reasonable estimation of such expenses. The Partnership incurred administrative expenses of $21,430 and $24,841 payable to Wells Capital and Wells Management for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012,

Page 12


respectively. In addition, Wells Capital and Wells Management pay for certain operating expenses of the Partnership ("bill-backs") directly and invoice the Partnership for the reimbursement thereof on a quarterly basis. As presented in the accompanying balance sheets, due to affiliates as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 represents administrative reimbursements and bill-backs due to Wells Capital and/or Wells Management.
Assertion of Legal Action Against Related-Parties
On March 12, 2007, a stockholder of Piedmont REIT filed a putative class action and derivative complaint, presently styled In re Wells Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. Securities Litigation, in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland against, among others, Piedmont REIT; Leo F. Wells, III, one of the Partnership's General Partners; Wells Capital, the corporate general partner of Wells Partners, the Partnership's General Partner; Wells Management, the Partnership's property manager; certain affiliates of WREF; the directors of Piedmont REIT; and certain individuals who formerly served as officers or directors of Piedmont REIT prior to the closing of the internalization transaction on April 16, 2007.
The complaint alleged, among other things, violations of the federal proxy rules and breaches of fiduciary duty arising from the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction and the related proxy statement filed with the SEC on February 26, 2007, as amended. The complaint sought, among other things, unspecified monetary damages and nullification of the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction.
On June 27, 2007, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint, which attempted to assert class action claims on behalf of those persons who received and were entitled to vote on the Piedmont REIT proxy statement filed with the SEC on February 26, 2007, and derivative claims on behalf of Piedmont REIT.
On March 31, 2008, the Court granted in part the defendants' motion to dismiss the amended complaint. The Court dismissed five of the seven counts of the amended complaint in their entirety. The Court dismissed the remaining two counts with the exception of allegations regarding the failure to disclose in the Piedmont REIT proxy statement details of certain expressions of interest in acquiring Piedmont REIT. On April 21, 2008, the plaintiff filed a second amended complaint, which alleged violations of the federal proxy rules based upon allegations that the proxy statement to obtain approval for the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction omitted details of certain expressions of interest in acquiring Piedmont REIT. The second amended complaint sought, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, to nullify and rescind the internalization transaction, and to cancel and rescind any stock issued to the defendants as consideration for the internalization transaction. On May 12, 2008, the defendants answered and raised certain defenses to the second amended complaint. Subsequent to the filing of the second amended complaint, the plaintiff said it intended to seek monetary damages of approximately $159 million plus prejudgment interest.
On June 23, 2008, the plaintiff filed a motion for class certification. On September 16, 2009, the Court granted the plaintiff's motion for class certification. On September 20, 2009, the defendants filed a petition for permission to appeal immediately the Court's order granting the motion for class certification with the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. The petition for permission to appeal was denied on October 30, 2009.
On April 13, 2009, the plaintiff moved for leave to amend the second amended complaint to add additional defendants. The Court denied the plaintiff's motion for leave to amend on June 23, 2009.
On December 4, 2009, the parties filed motions for summary judgment. On August 2, 2010, the Court entered an order denying the defendants' motion for summary judgment and granting, in part, the plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment. The Court ruled that the question of whether certain expressions of interest in acquiring Piedmont REIT constituted "material" information required to be disclosed in the proxy statement to obtain approval for the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction raises questions of fact that must be determined at trial.
On November 17, 2011, the Court issued rulings granting several of the plaintiff's motions in limine to prohibit the defendants from introducing certain evidence, including evidence of the defendants' reliance on advice from their outside legal and financial advisors, and limiting the defendants' ability to relate their subjective views, considerations, and observations during the trial of the case. On February 23, 2012, the Court granted several of the defendants' motions, including a motion for reconsideration regarding a motion the plaintiff had filed seeking exclusion of certain evidence impacting damages, and motions seeking exclusion of certain evidence proposed to be submitted by the plaintiff.
On March 20, 2012, the Court granted the defendants leave to file a motion for summary judgment.  On April 5, 2012, the defendants filed a motion for summary judgment. On September 26, 2012, the Court granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment and entered judgment in favor of the defendants. On October 12, 2012, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal with the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals. 

Page 13


On October 22, 2012, Piedmont REIT announced that the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle the lawsuit on October 12, 2012. Under the terms of the proposed settlement, the plaintiff will dismiss the appeal and release all defendants from liability in exchange for total payment of $4.9 million in cash by Piedmont REIT and its insurer. On December 31, 2012, the plaintiff filed a motion for preliminary approval of the settlement with the Court.  On January 2, 2013, the Court preliminarily approved the settlement.  Pursuant to the terms of the settlement and the Court's order preliminarily approving the settlement, notice of the proposed settlement was given to the class.  On March 21, 2013, the plaintiff filed a motion for final approval of the settlement and for an award of attorneys' fees and expenses.  On April 18, 2013, the Court entered an order granting final approval of the settlement, dismissing the lawsuit with prejudice, and awarding attorneys' fees and expenses to the plaintiff.
Operational Dependency
The Partnership has engaged Wells Capital and Wells Management to provide certain essential services, including supervision of the management and leasing of its properties, asset acquisition and disposition services, as well as other administrative responsibilities, including accounting services and investor communications and relations. These agreements are terminable by either party upon 60 days' written notice. As a result of these relationships, the Partnership's operations are dependent upon Wells Capital and Wells Management.
Wells Capital and Wells Management are owned and controlled by WREF. The operations of Wells Capital, Wells Investment Securities, Inc., Wells Management, Wells Core Office Income REIT Advisory Services, LLC, and their affiliates represent substantially all of the business of WREF. Accordingly, we focus on the financial condition of WREF when assessing the financial condition of Wells Capital and Wells Management. In the event that WREF were to become unable to meet its obligations as they become due, we might be required to find alternative service providers.
Future net income generated by WREF will be largely dependent upon the amount of fees earned by Wells Capital and Wells Management based on, among other things, the level of investor proceeds raised from the sale of common stock for certain WREF-sponsored programs and the volume of future acquisitions and dispositions of real estate assets by WREF-sponsored programs, as well as distribution income earned from its holdings of common stock of Piedmont REIT, which was acquired in connection with the Piedmont REIT internalization transaction. As of March 31, 2013, the Partnership has no reason to believe that WREF does not have access to adequate liquidity and capital resources, including cash flow generated from operations, cash on hand, other investments, and borrowing capacity, necessary to meet its current and future obligations as they become due. Modifying service agreements between WREF, or its affiliates, and the Partnership, or other WREF-sponsored programs, could impact WREF's future net income and future access to liquidity and capital resources. For example, a large portion of WREF's income is derived under agreements with Columbia Property Trust, Inc. ("Columbia"), formerly known as Wells Real Estate Investment Trust II, Inc. Effective February 28, 2013, Columbia transitioned to self-management and indicated that it does not expect to rely on WREF for the same level of services beyond December 31, 2013. As such, WREF does not expect to receive significant compensation from Columbia beyond December 31, 2013.
5.
ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY
The Partnership is dependent upon the ability of its current tenants to pay their contractual rent amounts as they become due. The inability of a tenant to pay future rental amounts would be likely to have a negative impact on the Partnership's results of operations. The Partnership is not currently aware of any reason why its existing tenants should not be able to pay their contractual rental amounts as they become due in all material respects. Situations preventing the tenants from paying contractual rents could result in a material adverse impact on the Partnership's results of operations.
6.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, the Partnership and its General Partners are parties to legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of the Partnership's business. The Partnership is not currently involved in any litigation for which the outcome would, in the judgment of the General Partners based on information currently available, have a materially adverse impact on the results of operations or financial condition of the Partnership, nor is management aware of any such litigation threatened against us.
ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto. See also "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" preceding Part I, as well as our financial statements, the notes thereto, and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, all provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Overview
The Partnership typically operates in the following five life cycle phases and, during which, typically focuses on the following key operating objectives. The duration of each phase is dependent upon various economic, industry, market, and other internal/external factors. Some overlap naturally exists in the transition from one phase to the next.
Fundraising phase
The period during which the Partnership is raising capital through the sale and issuance of limited partner units to the public;
Investing phase
The period during which the Partnership invests the capital raised during the fundraising phase, less upfront fees, into the acquisition of real estate assets;
Holding phase
The period during which the Partnership owns and operates its real estate assets during the initial lease terms of the tenants;
Positioning-for-sale phase
The period during which the leases in place at the time of acquisition expire and, thus, the Partnership expends time, effort, and funds to re-lease such space to existing and/or new tenants. Following the holding phase, the Partnership continues to own and operate the real estate assets, evaluate various options for disposition, and market the real estate assets for sale; and
Disposition-and-liquidation phase
The period during which the Partnership sells its real estate investments, distributes net sale proceeds to the partners, liquidates, and terminates the Partnership.
Portfolio Overview
We are currently in the positioning-for-sale phase of our life cycle. We have sold four of the seven properties in which we have held interests. In January 2013, Fund XI-XII-REIT Associates executed a lease with Meara Welch Browne, P.C. for approximately 11% of the 20/20 Building that extends through June 2020. While our focus at this time involves leasing and marketing efforts at our remaining properties that we believe will ultimately result in a better disposition pricing of our assets for our limited partners, we will evaluate offers to sell our properties on an as-is basis.

The first quarter 2013 operating distributions to the limited partners holding Cash Preferred Units were reserved as a result of anticipated re-leasing costs and capital improvements at our remaining properties. We anticipate that operating distributions may continue to be reserved in the near-term due to funding our pro rata share of anticipated re-leasing costs and capital improvements at our remaining properties.

Property Summary
As we move further into the positioning-for-sale phase, we will continue to focus on leasing and marketing efforts at our remaining properties that we believe will ultimately result in a better disposition pricing of our assets for our limited partners. We will also evaluate offers to sell our remaining properties on an as-is basis, as well as, explore strategic alternatives, including marketing our equity ownership in the Joint Ventures. As of April 30, 2013, we owned interests in three properties.

Information relating to the properties owned, or previously owned, by the Joint Ventures is provided below:
The Johnson Matthey Building was sold on October 5, 2004.
The Gartner Building was sold on April 13, 2005.
The AT&T Oklahoma Building was sold on April 13, 2005.
The 111 Southchase Boulevard property was sold on May 23, 2007.
The 20/20 Building, located in Leawood, Kansas, is approximately 72% leased to three tenants. The major lease to SelectQuote Insurance Services for approximately 49% of the building extends through October 2018. We are marketing the vacant space in this building for lease.
The 4685 Investment Drive building, located in Troy, Michigan, is 100% leased through October 2015.
The Comdata Building, located in Brentwood, Tennessee, outside Nashville, is 100% leased through May 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
The Partnership is an investment vehicle formed for the purpose of acquiring, owning, and operating income-producing real properties or investing in joint ventures formed for the same purpose, and has invested all of the partners' original net offering proceeds available for investment. Thus, it is unlikely that we will acquire interests in any additional properties or joint ventures. Historically, our investment strategy has generally involved acquiring properties that are preleased to creditworthy tenants on an all-cash basis through joint ventures with affiliated partnerships.
Our operating strategy entails funding expenditures related to the recurring operations of the Joint Ventures' properties and the portfolio with operating cash flows, including current and prior period operating distributions received from the Joint Ventures, and assessing the amount of remaining cash flows that will be required to fund known future re-leasing costs and other capital improvements. Any residual operating cash flows are generally considered available for distribution to the Cash Preferred limited partners and, unless reserved, are generally paid quarterly. As a result, the ongoing monitoring of our cash position is critical to ensuring that adequate liquidity and capital resources are available. Economic downturns in our remaining markets could adversely impact the ability of one or more of our tenants to honor lease payments and our ability to re-lease space on favorable terms as leases expire or space otherwise becomes vacant. In the event of either situation, cash flows and, consequently, our ability to provide funding for capital needs could be adversely affected.

Short-Term Liquidity
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we generated net cash flows from operating activities, including operating distributions received from the Joint Ventures, of approximately $300,000. Operating distributions from the Joint Ventures generally consist of rental revenues and tenant reimbursements, less property operating expenses, management fees, general administrative expenses, and capital expenditures. We continued to reserve operating cash flows to fund our pro rata share of anticipated capital improvements and re-leasing costs at our remaining properties. The extent to which future operating distributions are paid to limited partners will be largely dependent upon the amount of cash generated from the Joint Ventures, our expectations of future cash flows, and determination of near-term cash needs to fund our share of tenant re-leasing costs and other capital improvements for properties owned by the Joint Ventures. We anticipate that distributions from the Joint Ventures may decline due to funding our pro rata share of anticipated re-leasing costs and capital improvements at our remaining properties.

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we invested approximately $202,000 in Fund XI-XII-REIT Associates to fund our pro rata share of tenant improvements and property operating costs at the 20/20 Building related to recent leasing activity.

We believe that the cash on hand and distributions due from the Joint Ventures will be sufficient to cover our working capital needs, including those provided for within our total liabilities of approximately $15,000, as of March 31, 2013.

Long-Term Liquidity
We expect that our future sources of capital will be primarily derived from operating cash flows generated from properties owned by the Joint Ventures and net proceeds generated from the sale of those properties. Our future long-term liquidity requirements will include, but not be limited to, funding our share of tenant improvements, renovations, expansions, and other significant capital improvements necessary for properties owned through the Joint Ventures. We expect to continue to use substantially all future net cash flows from operations, including distributions received from the Joint Ventures, to fund leasing costs and capital expenditures necessary to position our properties for sale.

Capital Resources
The Joint Ventures incur capital expenditures primarily related to building improvements for the purpose of maintaining the quality of our properties, and tenant improvements for the purpose of readying our properties for re-leasing. As leases expire, we typically attempt to re-lease space to an existing tenant or market the space to prospective new tenants. Generally, tenant improvements funded in connection with lease renewals require less capital than those funded in connection with new leases. However, external conditions, such as the supply of and demand for comparable space available within a given market, drive capital costs as well as rental rates.
Operating cash flows, if available, are generally distributed from the Joint Ventures to us approximately one month following calendar quarter-ends. However, the Joint Ventures will reserve operating distributions, or a portion thereof, as needed in order to fund known capital and other expenditures. Our cash management policy typically includes first utilizing current period operating

Page 16


cash flows until depleted, at which point operating reserves are utilized to fund capital and other required expenditures. In the event that current and prior period accumulated operating cash flows are insufficient to fund such costs, net sale proceeds reserves, if available, would then be utilized. Any capital or other expenditures not funded from the operations of the Joint Ventures will be required to be funded by us and the other respective joint venture partners on a pro rata basis.
As of March 31, 2013, we have received, used, distributed, and held net sale proceeds allocated to the Partnership from the sale of properties as presented below:

Results of Operations
Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2012 versus the three months ended March 31, 2013
Equity in Income of Joint Ventures
Equity in income of Joint Ventures decreased from $259,533 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 to $251,097 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease is primarily due to an increase in vacancy at the 20/20 Building as a result of lease expirations in the fourth quarter of 2012. Absent leasing activity, we expect equity in loss of Joint Ventures to remain at a similar level as compared to the first quarter of 2013.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased from $63,770 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 to $73,633 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase is primarily due to an increase in administrative costs related to reporting and regulatory requirements. We anticipate that future general and administrative expenses will vary primarily based on future changes in our reporting and regulatory requirements.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
Summary
Our accounting policies have been established to conform with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If management's judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
Below is a discussion of the accounting policies used by us and the Joint Ventures, which are considered to be critical in that they may require complex judgment in their application or require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.


Page 17


Investment in Real Estate Assets
We are required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our depreciable assets. We consider the period of future benefit of the assets to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income. The estimated useful lives of the Joint Ventures' assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
Buildings
40 years
Building improvements
5-25 years
Land improvements
20 years
Tenant improvements
Shorter of lease term or economic life
 
In the event that the Joint Ventures utilize inappropriate useful lives or methods of depreciation, our net income would be misstated.
Evaluating the Recoverability of Real Estate Assets
We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate assets in which we have an ownership interest through investments in the Joint Ventures may not be recoverable. When indicators of potential impairment are present which suggest that the carrying amounts of real estate assets may not be recoverable, we assess the recoverability of the real estate assets by determining whether the respective carrying values will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition for assets held for use, or with the estimated fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use, or the estimated fair values, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale, do not exceed the respective assets' carrying values, we adjust the real estate assets to their respective estimated fair values, pursuant to the provisions of the property, plant, and equipment accounting standard for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, and recognize an impairment loss. Estimated fair values are determined based on the following information, dependent upon availability: (i) recently quoted market price(s) for the subject property, or highly comparable properties, under sufficiently active and normal market conditions, or (ii) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated residual value. We have determined that there have been no additional impairments in the carrying value of our real estate assets to date; however, certain of our assets may be carried at an amount more than could be realized in a current disposition transaction.
Projections of expected future cash flows require that we estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. The subjectivity of assumptions used in the future cash flow analysis, including discount rates, could result in an incorrect assessment of the property's future cash flows and fair value, and could result in the misstatement of the carrying value of real estate assets held by the Joint Ventures and our net income (loss).
Related-Party Transactions
We have entered into agreements with Wells Capital and Wells Management, or their affiliates, whereby we pay certain fees and expense reimbursements to Wells Capital, Wells Management or their affiliates for asset management; the management and leasing of our properties; and administrative services relating to accounting, property management, and other partnership administration, and we incur the related expenses. See Note 4 to our financial statements included in this report for a description of these fees and expense reimbursements we have incurred.
Commitments and Contingencies
We are subject to certain commitments and contingencies with regard to certain transactions. See Note 4 and Note 6 to our financial statements included in this report for further explanations. Examples of such commitments and contingencies include our property management and leasing agreements.
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Since we do not borrow any money, make any foreign investments, or invest in any market risk-sensitive instruments, we are not subject to risks relating to interest rates, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, or the other market risks contemplated by Item 305 of Regulation S-K.

Page 18


ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEEDURES
Management's Conclusions Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management of Wells Capital, the corporate general partner of Wells Partners, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer of Wells Capital, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer of Wells Capital concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer of Wells Capital, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
