PARTNERSHIP DISSOLUTION APPROACHING
As we have mentioned in previous correspondence, Rancon V is required, by the terms of its partnership agreement, to dissolve on December 31, 2015. During the course of this year, we have been exploring the options available in connection with the anticipated dissolution of the Partnership. The current plan is to develop and prepare a Consent Solicitation Statement (“Consent Statement”) in compliance with the partnership agreement and the SEC’s proxy rules, and to send the Consent Statement to all Limited Partners during the 2nd quarter of 2014.
The Consent Statement will request the approval of the Limited Partners to dissolve and to begin an orderly liquidation of the Partnership’s assets, which would include selling all the properties of the Partnership and distributing the net proceeds to the Limited Partners. The Consent Statement would include information about the Partnership and the proposed dissolution in accordance with the SEC’s proxy rules. Dissolution of the Partnership prior to December 31, 2015 will require approval by the Limited Partners holding a majority of the outstanding units of the Partnership.
During the consent solicitation process, we plan to interview one or more real estate brokerage firms for the purpose of identifying those that could create a comprehensive marketing plan to sell the properties owned by Rancon V. Retention of any firm would be conditional upon approval of the Partnership’s dissolution by the Limited Partners of Rancon V. The firm or firms selected would then move forward in presenting the properties in their best light to attract the most promising potential buyers. Many factors will influence the timing of the sale of the properties, including the local markets in which the properties of the Partnership are located and the state of the local and national economies.
CAN PARTNERSHIP UNITS BE SOLD?
Some investors have contacted us, asking how to liquidate (sell) their Partnership Units. Remember that Rancon Realty Fund V is not publicly traded, so options for selling are limited. Upon request, we can provide a list of potential buyers that you can contact and possibly negotiate with to facilitate the sale of your Units. While we can provide a list of potential buyers, we cannot confirm the potential buyers’ ability to follow through on any proposal they may make to you to purchase your Units. Historically, units sold in the secondary market result in prices of between 10% to 40% of Rancon V’s valuation estimate of its outstanding units. The Partnership’s current valuation estimate of its outstanding units is $440 per unit.
Unaudited financial statements at June 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and June 30, 2012, are included with this letter. If you have questions or need additional information, please don’t hesitate to contact Investor Services, toll free at 888.909.7774. We are here to help – if you have questions about changing your address or transferring your IRA to a new custodian, contact us either by phone or by visiting our website at www.myinvestment.com. On the website, you can find information on how to contact us by email, and even submit a change of address electronically.
