operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent with the annual audited statements. The adjustments made to these condensed statements consist only of normal recurring adjustments. Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although
the registrant believes
that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the summary of significant accounting policies and
notes thereto included in
the registrant’s latest annual report on Form 10‑K.
(2) Organization –
AEI Net Lease Income & Growth Fund XX Limited Partnership (“Partnership”) was formed to acquire and lease commercial properties to operating tenants.
The Partnership's operations are managed by AEI Fund Management XX, Inc. (“AFM”), the Managing General Partner. Robert P. Johnson, the President and sole director of AFM, serves as the Individual General Partner. AFM is a wholly owned subsidiary of
AEI Capital Corporation of which Mr. Johnson is the majority shareholder. AEI Fund Management, Inc. (“AEI”), an affiliate of AFM, performs the administrative and operating functions for the Partnership.
The terms of the Partnership offering called for a subscription price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership Unit, payable on acceptance of the offer. The
Partnership commenced operations on
June 30, 1993 when minimum subscriptions of 1,500 Limited Partnership Units ($1,500,000) were accepted. On
January 19, 1995, the offering terminated when the maximum subscription limit of 24,000 Limited
Partnership Units was reached. Under the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the Limited Partners and General Partners contributed funds of $24,000,000 and $1,000, respectively.
During operations, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the General Partners determine to distribute will be distributed 90% to the Limited Partners and
10% to the General Partners; provided, however, that such distributions to the General Partners will be subordinated to the Limited Partners first receiving an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net Cash Flow equal to 10% of their Adjusted Capital
Contribution, as defined, and, provided further, that in no event will the General Partners receive less than 1% of such Net Cash Flow per annum. Distributions to Limited Partners will be made pro rata by Units.
AEI NET LEASE INCOME & GROWTH FUND XX LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(2) Organization – (Continued)
Any Net Proceeds of Sale, as defined, from the sale or financing of properties which the General Partners determine to distribute will, after provisions
for debts and reserves, be paid in the following manner: (i) first, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners until the Limited Partners receive an amount equal to: (a) their Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount equal to
12% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed from Net Cash Flow; (ii) any remaining balance will be distributed 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General
Partners. Distributions to the Limited Partners will be made pro rata by Units.
For tax purposes, profits from operations, other than profits attributable to the sale, exchange, financing, refinancing or other disposition of property,
will be allocated first in the same ratio in which, and to the extent, Net Cash Flow is distributed to the Partners for such year. Any additional profits will be allocated in the same ratio as the last dollar of Net Cash Flow is distributed. Net
losses from operations will be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.
For tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing, or other disposition of property will be allocated in accordance with the Partnership Agreement
as follows: (i) first, to those partners with deficit balances in their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum of such deficit balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners until the aggregate balance in
the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the sum of the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an amount equal to 12% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously
allocated; (iii) third, the balance of any remaining gain will then be allocated 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners. Losses will be allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partners.
The General Partners are not required to currently fund a deficit capital balance. Upon liquidation of the Partnership or withdrawal by a General Partner,
the General Partners will contribute to the Partnership an amount equal to the lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts or 1% of total Limited Partners' and General Partners' capital contributions.
In June 2014, the Managing General Partner mailed a Consent Statement (Proxy) seeking the consent of the Limited Partners to continue the Partnership for
an additional 60 months or to initiate the final disposition, liquidation and distribution of all of the Partnership’s properties and assets within 24 to 36 months. Approval of either proposal required the affirmative vote of holders of a majority
of the outstanding units. On
July 23, 2014, the votes were counted and neither proposal received the required majority vote. As a result, the Partnership will not liquidate and will continue in operation until the Limited Partners vote to authorize
the sale of all of the Partnership's properties or December 31, 2043, as stated in the Limited Partnership Agreement. However, in approximately five years, the Managing General Partner expects to again submit the question to liquidate to a vote by
the Limited Partners.

(3) Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements –
In August 2018, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, amending certain disclosure
requirements that were redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. In addition, the amendments expanded the disclosure requirements for the analysis of partners’ capital for interim financial statements. Under the amendments, an
analysis of changes in each caption of partners’ capital presented in the balance sheet must be provided in a note or separate statement. The analysis should present a reconciliation of the beginning balance to the ending balance of each period for
which a statement of income is required to be filed. The Partnership’s first presentation of year-to-date quarterly changes in partners’ capital was included in its Form 10‑Q for the quarter ended
March 31, 2019.
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, which provides guidance for accounting
for leases. The new guidance requires companies to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leased assets, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The accounting guidance for lessors is
largely unchanged. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2018. It is to be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. The Partnership has adopted the accounting pronouncement effective
January 1,
2019 and the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial statements.
(4) Real Estate Investments –
In March 2017, the Partnership entered into an agreement with the tenant of the KinderCare daycare center in Mayfield Heights, Ohio to extend the lease
term five years to end on
June 30, 2022. The annual rent was scheduled to remain the same throughout the remainder of the extended lease term. As part of the agreement, the Partnership paid a tenant improvement allowance of $43,350 that was
capitalized. In addition, beginning on
July 1, 2017, the tenant received free rent for three months that equaled $40,421. In the first quarter of 2017, the Partnership decided to sell the property. In October 2018, the Partnership entered into a
second agreement with the tenant to extend the lease term 6.3 years to end on
September 30, 2028. The annual rent remains the same with a 10% increase scheduled for
October 1, 2023. In October 2018, as part of the agreement, the Partnership made a
lease incentive payment to the tenant of $100,000 that was capitalized. The General Partner believes that the additional lease term increased the number of buyers interested in the property and increased the value of the property by more than the
$100,000 paid to the tenant. At
December 31, 2018, the property was classified as Real Estate Held for Sale with a carrying value of $999,271.
In December 2018, the Partnership entered into an agreement to sell the KinderCare daycare center to an unrelated third party. On
January 25, 2019, the
sale closed with the Partnership receiving net proceeds of $2,073,311, which resulted in a net gain of $1,074,040. At the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $1,550,408 and $551,137, respectively.

agreement to sell the property to an unrelated third party. On
October 30, 2018, the sale closed with the Partnership receiving net proceeds of $5,516,851, which resulted in a net gain of $4,344,394. At the time of sale, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation was $2,229,190 and $1,056,733, respectively.
In August 2018, the Partnership entered into an agreement with the tenant of the Staples store in Vernon Hills, Illinois to extend the lease term five
years to end on
October 31, 2023. As part of the agreement, the annual rent decreased from $308,315 to $214,480 effective
November 1, 2018.
On
April 30, 2019, the Partnership purchased a Bassett Home Furnishings store in Fredericksburg, Virginia for $3,153,741. The Partnership allocated
$499,087 of the purchase price to Acquired Intangible Lease Assets, representing in-place lease intangibles, and allocated $444,840 to Acquired Below-Market Lease Intangibles. The property is leased to Bassett Direct NC, LLC, a subsidiary of Bassett
Furniture Industries, Inc., under a lease agreement with a remaining primary term of 10.5 years (as of the date of purchase) and annual rent of $199,296.
The Partnership owned a 40.1354% interest in a HomeTown Buffet restaurant in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The remaining interests in this property were owned
by unrelated third parties, who owned the property with the Partnership as tenants-in-common. On
November 10, 2015, the Partnership sold the property to an unrelated third party. In December 2014, the Partnership and three of the other co-owners of
the property (the
“Plaintiffs”) commenced legal action against a fourth co‑owner (
“Defendant”) for breach of
contract related to a prior attempt to sell the property. In 2017, the Plaintiffs signed a settlement agreement with the Defendant and
collected damages related to the breach of
contract. On
July 7, 2017, the judge in the case issued a ruling that set the amount of legal fees that the Plaintiffs could recover from the Defendant. The Partnership’s share of this amount was $50,689.
After appealing the judge’s decision several times, the Defendant finally paid the amount awarded by the judge in January 2019. At
December 31, 2018, the Partnership accrued its share of this amount as Miscellaneous Income.
(5) Payable to AEI Fund Management, Inc. –
AEI Fund Management, Inc. performs the administrative and operating functions for the Partnership. The payable to AEI Fund Management represents the
balance due for those services. This balance is non-interest bearing and unsecured and is to be paid in the normal course of business.

received distributions of $825,003 and $831,004 and the General Partners received distributions of $8,333 and $8,394 for the periods, respectively. The Limited Partners' distributions represented $42.38 and $41.67 per Limited Partnership Unit
outstanding using 19,468 and 19,944 weighted average Units in 2019 and 2018, respectively. The distributions represented $42.38 and $27.17 per Unit of Net Income and $0.00 and $14.50 per Unit of return of capital in 2019 and 2018, respectively.
As part of the distributions discussed above, the Partnership distributed net sale proceeds of $256,284 and $57,983 in 2019 and 2018, respectively. The
Limited Partners received distributions of $253,721 and $57,403 and the General Partners received distributions of $2,563 and $580 for the periods, respectively. The Limited Partners’ distributions represented $13.02 and $2.88 per Unit for the
periods, respectively.
On
April 1, 2019, the Partnership repurchased a total of 444.97 Units for $381,869 from 28 Limited Partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
The Partnership acquired these Units using net sale proceeds. On
April 1, 2018, the Partnership repurchased a total of 107.56 Units for $97,829 from nine Limited Partners. The Partnership acquired these Units using Net Cash Flow from operations.
The repurchases increase the remaining Limited Partners' ownership interest in the Partnership. As a result of these repurchases and pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partners received distributions of $3,857 and $988 in 2019 and
2018, respectively.
(7) Fair Value Measurements –
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
This section contains "forward-looking statements" which represent management's expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including statements
regarding anticipated application of cash, expected returns from rental income, growth in revenue, the sufficiency of cash to meet operating expenses, rates of distribution, and other matters. These, and other forward-looking statements, should be
evaluated in the context of a number of factors that may affect the Partnership's financial condition and results of operations, including the following:
|
— |
Market and economic conditions which affect the value of the properties the Partnership owns and the cash from rental income such properties generate;
|
|
— |
the federal income tax consequences of rental income, deductions, gain on sales and other items and the effects of these consequences for the Partners;
|
|
— |
resolution by the General Partners of conflicts with which they may be confronted;
|
|
— |
the success of the General Partners of locating properties with favorable risk return characteristics;
|
|
— |
the effect of tenant defaults; and
|
|
— |
the condition of the industries in which the tenants of properties owned by the Partnership operate.
|
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
The Partnership’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Preparing the financial statements requires management to use
judgment in the application of these accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments will affect the reported amounts of the Partnership’s assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and will affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. It is possible that the carrying amount of the Partnership’s assets and liabilities, or the results of
reported operations, will be affected if management’s estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate.
Management of the Partnership evaluates the following accounting estimates on an ongoing basis, and has discussed the development and selection of these
estimates and the management discussion and analysis disclosures regarding them with the managing partner of the Partnership.
Allocation of Purchase Price of Acquired Properties
Upon acquisition of real properties, the Partnership records them in the financial statements at cost. The purchase price is allocated to tangible assets,
consisting of land and building, and to identified intangible assets and liabilities, which may include the value of above market and below market leases and the value of in-place leases. The allocation of the purchase price is based upon the fair
value of each component of the property. Although independent appraisals may be used to assist in the determination of fair value, in many cases these values will be based upon management’s assessment of each property, the selling prices of
comparable properties and the discounted value of cash flows from the asset.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
The fair values of above market and below market in-place leases will be recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the
risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) an estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases measured over a period
equal to the non-cancelable term of the lease including any bargain renewal periods. The above market and below market lease values will be capitalized as intangible lease assets or liabilities. Above market lease values will be amortized as an
adjustment of rental income over the remaining term of the respective leases. Below market lease values will be amortized as an adjustment of rental income over the remaining term of the respective leases, including any bargain renewal periods. If
a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts of above market and below market in-place lease values relating to that lease would be recorded as an adjustment to rental income.
The fair values of in-place leases will include estimated direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant, and opportunity costs associated with lost
rentals which are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease. Direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant may include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated, in part, by management’s consideration of current
market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct costs will be included in intangible lease assets on the balance sheet and will be amortized to expense over the remaining term of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs will be
calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. These intangibles will be included in intangible lease assets on the balance sheet and will be amortized to
expense over the remaining term of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts of in-place lease assets relating to that lease would be expensed.
The determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired will require the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current
market rental rates, rental growth rates, discount and capitalization rates, interest rates and other variables. If management’s estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate, the result would be an inaccurate allocation of purchase price, which could
impact the amount of reported net income.
Carrying Value of Properties
Properties are carried at original cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Partnership tests long-lived assets for recoverability when
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. For properties the Partnership will hold and operate, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property’s probability-weighted
future undiscounted cash flows to its current carrying value. For properties held for sale, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property’s estimated fair value less cost to sell to its current carrying value. If
the carrying value is greater than the net realizable value, an impairment loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its net realizable value. Changes in these assumptions or analysis may cause material changes in the carrying
value of the properties.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
Allocation of Expenses
AEI Fund Management, Inc. allocates expenses to each of the funds they manage primarily on the basis of the number of hours devoted by their employees to
each fund’s affairs. They also allocate expenses at the end of each month that are not directly related to a fund’s operations based upon the number of investors in the fund and the fund’s capitalization relative to other funds they manage. The
Partnership reimburses these expenses subject to detailed limitations contained in the Partnership Agreement.
Results of Operations
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2019 and
2018, the Partnership recognized rental income of $713,614 and $1,058,931, respectively. In 2019, rental
income decreased due to the sale of one property in 2018, the sale of one property in 2019 and a rent decrease related to the Staples store, as discussed below. These decreases were partially offset by additional rent received from one property
acquisition in 2019 and a rent increase on one property. Based on the scheduled rent for the properties owned as of
October 31, 2019, the Partnership expects to recognize rental income from continuing operations of approximately $975,000 and
$1,060,000 in 2019 and 2020, respectively.
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2019 and
2018, the Partnership incurred Partnership administration expenses from affiliated parties of $132,640 and
$121,701, respectively. These administration expenses include costs associated with the management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting requirements and communicating with the Limited Partners. During the same periods, the
Partnership incurred Partnership administration and property management expenses from unrelated parties of $59,559 and $55,854, respectively. These expenses represent direct payments to third parties for legal and filing fees, direct administrative
costs, outside audit costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.
The Partnership owned a 40.1354% interest in a HomeTown Buffet restaurant in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The remaining interests in this property were owned
by unrelated third parties, who owned the property with the Partnership as tenants-in-common. On
November 10, 2015, the Partnership sold the property to an unrelated third party. In December 2014, the Partnership and three of the other co-owners of
the property (the
“Plaintiffs”) commenced legal action against a fourth co‑owner (
“Defendant”) for breach of
contract related to a prior attempt to sell the property. In 2017, the Plaintiffs signed a settlement agreement with the Defendant and
collected damages related to the breach of
contract. On
July 7, 2017, the judge in the case issued a ruling that set the amount of legal fees that the Plaintiffs could recover from the Defendant. The Partnership’s share of this amount was $50,689.
After appealing the judge’s decision several times, the Defendant finally paid the amount awarded by the judge in January 2019. At
December 31, 2018, the Partnership accrued its share of this amount as Miscellaneous Income.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
In August 2018, the Partnership entered into an agreement with the tenant of the Staples store in Vernon Hills, Illinois to extend the lease term five
years to end on
October 31, 2023. As part of the agreement, the annual rent decreased from $308,315 to $214,480 effective
November 1, 2018.
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2019 and
2018, the Partnership recognized interest income of $51,767 and $4,573, respectively. In 2019 interest
income increased due to the Partnership having more money invested in a money market account due to property sales and higher money market interest rates in 2019.
Management believes inflation has not significantly affected income from operations. Leases may contain rent increases, based on the increase in the
Consumer Price Index over a specified period, which will result in an increase in rental income over the term of the leases. Inflation also may cause the real estate to appreciate in value. However, inflation and changing prices may have an adverse
impact on the operating margins of the properties' tenants, which could impair their ability to pay rent and subsequently reduce the Net Cash Flow available for distributions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the nine months ended
September 30, 2019, the Partnership's cash balances decreased $2,928,087 as a result of cash used to purchase property, and
distributions paid to the Partners and cash used to repurchase Units in excess of cash generated from operating activities, which were partially offset by cash generated from the sale of property. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2018, the
Partnership's cash balances increased $7,144 as a result of cash generated from operating activities in excess of distributions paid to the Partners and cash used to repurchase Units.
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased from $945,362 in 2018 to $588,579 in 2019 as a result of a decrease in total income in 2019, an
increase in Partnership administration and property management expenses in 2019 and net timing differences in the collection of payments from the tenants and the payment of expenses.
The major components of the Partnership's cash flow from investing activities are investments in real estate and proceeds from the sale of real estate.
During the nine months ended
September 30, 2019, the Partnership generated cash flow from the sale of real estate of $2,073,311. During the same period, the Partnership expended $3,153,741 to invest in real properties as the Partnership reinvested
cash generated from property sales.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
In March 2017, the Partnership entered into an agreement with the tenant of the KinderCare daycare center in Mayfield Heights, Ohio to extend the lease
term five years to end on
June 30, 2022. The annual rent was scheduled to remain the same throughout the remainder of the extended lease term. As part of the agreement, the Partnership paid a tenant improvement allowance of $43,350 that was
capitalized. In addition, beginning on
July 1, 2017, the tenant received free rent for three months that equaled $40,421. In the first quarter of 2017, the Partnership decided to sell the property. In October 2018, the Partnership entered into a
second agreement with the tenant to extend the lease term 6.3 years to end on
September 30, 2028. The annual rent remains the same with a 10% increase scheduled for
October 1, 2023. In October 2018, as part of the agreement, the Partnership made a
lease incentive payment to the tenant of $100,000 that was capitalized. The General Partner believes that the additional lease term increased the number of buyers interested in the property and increased the value of the property by more than the
$100,000 paid to the tenant. At
December 31, 2018, the property was classified as Real Estate Held for Sale with a carrying value of $999,271.
In December 2018, the Partnership entered into an agreement to sell the KinderCare daycare center to an unrelated third party. On
January 25, 2019, the
sale closed with the Partnership receiving net proceeds of $2,073,311, which resulted in a net gain of $1,074,040. At the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $1,550,408 and $551,137, respectively.
In January 2018, the Partnership decided to sell the Red Robin restaurant in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In August 2018, the Partnership entered into an
agreement to sell the property to an unrelated third party. On
October 30, 2018, the sale closed with the Partnership receiving net proceeds of $5,516,851, which resulted in a net gain of $4,344,394. At the time of sale, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation was $2,229,190 and $1,056,733, respectively.
On
April 30, 2019, the Partnership purchased a Bassett Home Furnishings store in Fredericksburg, Virginia for $3,153,741. The property is leased to
Bassett Direct NC, LLC, a subsidiary of Bassett Furniture Industries, Inc., under a lease agreement with a remaining primary term of 10.5 years (as of the date of purchase) and annual rent of $199,296.
The Partnership's primary use of cash flow, other than investment in real estate, is distribution payments to Partners and cash used to repurchase Units.
The Partnership declares its regular quarterly distributions before the end of each quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end of each quarter. The Partnership attempts to maintain a stable distribution rate from quarter to
quarter. The Partnership may repurchase tendered Units on April 1st and October 1st of each year subject to limitations.
For the nine months ended
September 30, 2019 and
2018, the Partnership declared distributions of $833,336 and $839,398, respectively, which were
distributed 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. The Limited Partners received distributions of $825,003 and $831,004 and the General Partners received distributions of $8,333 and $8,394 for the periods, respectively. In
December 2018, the Partnership declared a special distribution of net sale proceeds of $1,217,172 which was paid in the first week of January 2019 and resulted in higher distributions paid in 2019 and a higher distributions payable at
December 31,
2018.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
As part of the distributions discussed above, the Partnership distributed net sale proceeds of $256,284 and $57,983 in 2019 and 2018, respectively. The
Limited Partners received distributions of $253,721 and $57,403 and the General Partners received distributions of $2,563 and $580 for the periods, respectively. The Limited Partners’ distributions represented $13.02 and $2.88 per Unit for the
periods, respectively.
The Partnership may repurchase Units from Limited Partners who have tendered their Units to the Partnership. Such Units may be acquired at a discount.
The Partnership will not be obligated to purchase in any year any number of Units that, when aggregated with all other transfers of Units that have occurred since the beginning of the same calendar year (excluding Permitted Transfers as defined in
the Partnership Agreement), would exceed 5% of the total number of Units outstanding on January 1 of such year. In no event shall the Partnership be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner, such
purchase would impair the capital or operation of the Partnership.
On
April 1, 2019, the Partnership repurchased a total of 444.97 Units for $381,869 from 28 Limited Partners in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
The Partnership acquired these Units using net sale proceeds. On
April 1, 2018, the Partnership repurchased a total of 107.56 Units for $97,829 from nine Limited Partners. The Partnership acquired these Units using Net Cash Flow from operations.
The repurchases increase the remaining Limited Partners' ownership interest in the Partnership. As a result of these repurchases and pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partners received distributions of $3,857 and $988 in 2019 and
2018, respectively.
The continuing rent payments from the properties, together with cash generated from property sales, should be adequate to fund continuing distributions and
meet other Partnership obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of
September 30, 2019 and
December 31, 2018, the Partnership had no material off-balance sheet arrangements that had or are reasonably likely to have
current or future effects on its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
