CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q of Wells Real Estate Fund XII, L.P. (the “Partnership”) other than historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 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. 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. Neither the Partnership nor the general partners make any representations or warranties (expressed or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from any 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 known and 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 limited partners; and maintain the value of our real estate properties, may be significantly hindered. Following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in certain forward-looking statements:

 

General economic risks

 

  Adverse changes in general economic conditions or local conditions;

 

  Adverse economic conditions affecting the particular industry of one or more of our tenants;

 

Real estate risks

 

  Our ability to achieve appropriate occupancy levels resulting in sufficient rental amounts;

 

  Supply of or demand for similar or competing rentable space, which may adversely impact our ability to retain or obtain new tenants at lease expiration at acceptable rental amounts;

 

  Tenant ability or willingness to satisfy obligations relating to our existing lease agreements;

 

  Our potential need to fund tenant improvements, lease-up costs, or other capital expenditures out of operating cash flow;

 

  Increases in property operating expenses, including property taxes, insurance, and other costs at our properties;

 

  Our ability to secure adequate insurance at reasonable and appropriate rates to avoid uninsured losses or losses in excess of insured amounts;

Table of Contents

 

  Discovery of previously undetected environmentally hazardous or other undetected adverse conditions at our properties;

 

  Unexpected costs of capital expenditures related to tenant build-out projects or other unforeseen capital expenditures;

 

  Our ability to sell a property when desirable at an acceptable return, including the ability of the purchaser to satisfy any continuing obligations to us;

 

Other operational risks

 

  Our dependency on Wells Capital, Inc., the corporate general partner of one of our General Partners, its key personnel, and its affiliates for various administrative services;

 

  Wells Capital, Inc.’s ability to attract and retain high-quality personnel who can provide acceptable service levels to us and generate economies of scale for us over time;

 

  Increases in our administrative operating expenses, including increased expenses associated with operating as a public company;

 

  Changes in governmental, tax, real estate, environmental, and zoning laws and regulations and the related costs of compliance;

 

  Our ability to prove compliance with any governmental, tax, real estate, environmental, and zoning in the event that any such position is questioned by the respective authority; and

 

  Actions of our joint venture partners including potential bankruptcy, business interests differing from ours, or other actions that may adversely impact the operations of joint ventures.

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(a)  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, as the general partners (collectively, the “General Partners”). 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 elect 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. The 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) remove a General Partner; (d) elect a new General Partner; (e) dissolve the Partnership; and (f) approve a sale involving all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets, subject to certain limitations. The 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 March 22, 1999, the Partnership commenced a public offering of up to $70,000,000 of limited partnership units pursuant to a Registration Statement on filed Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The Partnership commenced active operations on June 1, 1999 upon receiving and accepting subscriptions for 125,000 units. The offering was terminated on March 21, 2001, at which time the Partnership had sold 2,688,861 Cash Preferred Units and 872,258 Tax Preferred Units for $10 per unit.

 

The Partnership owns interests in all of its real estate assets through joint ventures with other Wells entities. During the periods presented, the Partnership owned interests in the following seven properties through the affiliated joint ventures listed below (the “Joint Ventures”):
