Re: Update on Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P., including 2013 estimated valuations
Dear Custodian or Plan Trustee:
We would like to take this opportunity to provide you with the 2013 estimated unit values for Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P.
The estimated unit valuations for Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P., are as follows:
“A” Units | “B” Units | ||||||
Original Unit Price | 12/31/2012 Estimated Unit Value | Net Sale Proceeds Distributed in 2013* | 12/31/2013 Estimated Unit Value | 12/31/2012 Estimated Unit Value | Net Sale Proceeds Distributed in 2013* | 12/31/2013 Estimated Unit Value | |
Fund VIII | $10.00 | $2.58 | $0.87 | $1.85 | $2.21 | $0.73 | $1.82 |
*These amounts are intended to represent the per-unit distributions received by limited partners who purchased their units directly from the Fund in the original public offering of units.
The Fund’s final remaining properties were sold in 2013. The values were impacted positively because the 305 Interlocken property was sold for more than its Estimated Value at the end of 2012.
The segregation of estimated valuations for “Cash-Preferred” and “Tax-Preferred” Units was achieved by virtue of a calculation in accordance with a predetermined order of distribution of sale proceeds in regard to class status outlined in the partnership agreement. The estimated valuations are intended to be an estimate of the distributions that would be made to limited partners who purchased their units directly from the Fund in the original public offering of units, taking into account conversion elections as provided for in the partnership agreement.
The remaining cash reserves will be used to fund expenses and obligations of the Fund, including but not limited to legal fees, audit and tax fees, printing and postage costs, potential liabilities under the final purchase and sale agreement, and other administrative expenses. We anticipate making a final liquidating distribution of any unused reserves to the limited partners and dissolving the Fund in the second quarter of 2014.
For more detailed information, please refer to the most recent Form 8-K of Wells Real Estate Fund VIII, L.P., filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You can find the filing at www.SEC.gov.
