NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

Note A – Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Century Properties Fund XIX, LP (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The general partner of the Partnership is Fox Partners II, a California general partnership. The general partners of Fox Partners II are Fox Capital Management Corporation ("FCMC" or the "Managing General Partner"), a California corporation, and Fox Realty Investors ("FRI"), a California general partnership. The Managing General Partner is a subsidiary of Apartment Investment and Management Company ("Aimco"), a publicly traded real estate investment trust. In the opinion of the Managing General Partner, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013. The balance sheet at December 31, 2012 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

 

The Partnership’s management evaluated subsequent events through the time this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was filed.

 

Organization

 

On February 28, 2013, the Partnership entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with AIMCO Properties, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and AIMCO CPF XIX Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Merger Subsidiary”), of which AIMCO Properties, L.P. is the sole member, pursuant to which the Merger Subsidiary will be merged with and into the Partnership, with the Partnership as the surviving entity.

 

In the merger, each unit of limited partnership interest (each, a “Unit”) of the Partnership outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the merger (other than Units held by limited partners who perfect their appraisal rights pursuant to the Merger Agreement) will be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the limited partner, either (i)  $364.65 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) or (ii) a number of partnership common units of AIMCO Properties, L.P. calculated by dividing $364.65 by the average closing price of Aimco common stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange, over the ten consecutive trading days ending on the second trading day immediately prior to the effective time of the merger. However, if AIMCO Properties, L.P. determines that the law of the state or other jurisdiction in which a limited partner resides would prohibit the issuance of partnership common units of AIMCO Properties, L.P. in that state or other jurisdiction (or that registration or qualification in that state or jurisdiction would be prohibitively costly), then such limited partner will only be entitled to receive the Cash Consideration for each Unit. Those limited partners who do not make an election will be deemed to have elected to receive the Cash Consideration.

After the merger, AIMCO Properties, L.P.’s membership interest in the Merger Subsidiary will be converted into Units of the Partnership. As a result, after the merger, AIMCO Properties, L.P. will be the sole limited partner of the Partnership, holding all outstanding Units. Fox Partners II will continue to be the general partner of the Partnership after the merger, and the Partnership’s partnership agreement in effect immediately prior to the merger will remain unchanged after the merger.

Completion of the merger is subject to certain conditions, including approval by a majority in interest of the limited partners holding Units. In addition, the terms of the merger may be modified before the merger is completed. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were issued and outstanding 89,233 Units, and AIMCO Properties, L.P. and its affiliates owned 60,711.66 of those Units, or approximately 68.04% of the number of Units outstanding. Approximately 25,228.66 of the Units owned by an affiliate of AIMCO Properties, L.P. are subject to a voting restriction, which requires the Units to be voted in proportion to the votes cast with respect to Units not subject to this voting restriction. AIMCO Properties, L.P. and its affiliates have indicated that they will vote all of their Units that are not subject to this restriction, 35,483 Units or approximately 39.76% of the outstanding Units, in favor of the Merger Agreement and the merger. As a result, affiliates of AIMCO Properties, L.P. will vote a total of approximately 49,469 Units, or approximately 55.44% of the outstanding Units in favor of the Merger Agreement and the merger. AIMCO Properties, L.P. and its affiliates have indicated that they intend to take action by written consent to approve the merger.

 

The accompanying statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 reflects the operations of Greenspoint at Paradise Valley and Tamarind Bay Apartments as loss from discontinued operations due to their sales on March 29, 2012 and September 28, 2012, respectively (see “Note D”).

 

The following table presents summarized results of operations for Greenspoint at Paradise Valley and Tamarind Bay Apartments for the three months ended March 31, 2012 (in thousands):

Net Income (Loss) Per Limited Partnership Unit

 

Net income (loss) per Unit is computed by dividing net income (loss) allocated to the limited partners by the number of Units outstanding at the beginning of the fiscal year.  The number of Units used was 89,233 and 89,235 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2012 balances to conform to the 2013 presentation.

 

Note B – Transactions with Affiliated Parties

 

The Partnership has no employees and depends on the Managing General Partner and its affiliates for the management and administration of all Partnership activities. The Partnership Agreement provides for certain payments to affiliates for services and as reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by affiliates on behalf of the Partnership.

 

Affiliates of the Managing General Partner receive 5% of gross receipts from all of the Partnership's properties as compensation for providing property management services. The Partnership paid to such affiliates approximately $78,000 and $138,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which are included in operating expenses and loss from discontinued operations.

 

An affiliate of the Managing General Partner charged the Partnership for reimbursement of accountable administrative expenses amounting to approximately $13,000 and $26,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenses.

 

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, for managing the affairs of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner is entitled to receive a Partnership management fee equal to 10% of the Partnership's adjusted cash from operations as distributed. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, no fee was earned as there were no distributions from operations.

 

AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Managing General Partner has made available to the Partnership a credit line of up to $150,000 per property owned by the Partnership. Prior to 2012, this credit limit was exceeded.  There were no advances made during the three months ended March 31, 2013 or 2012. AIMCO Properties, L.P. charges interest on advances under the terms permitted by the Partnership Agreement. The interest rates charged on the outstanding advances made to the Partnership ranged from the prime rate plus 0.5% to a variable rate based on the prime rate plus a market rate adjustment for similar type loans. Affiliates of the Managing General Partner review the market rate adjustment quarterly. Interest expense was approximately $1,000 and $70,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Partnership repaid approximately $167,000 and $6,414,000, respectively, of advances and accrued interest with cash from operations and proceeds from the sale of Greenspoint at Paradise Valley, respectively. At December 31, 2012, the total advances and accrued interest due to AIMCO Properties, L.P. were approximately $166,000 and are included in due to affiliates. No such amounts were owed at March 31, 2013. The Partnership may receive additional advances of funds from AIMCO Properties, L.P. although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to provide such advances.  For more information on AIMCO Properties, L.P., including copies of its audited balance sheets, please see its reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The Partnership insures its properties up to certain limits through coverage provided by Aimco which is generally self-insured for a portion of losses and liabilities related to workers’ compensation, property casualty, general liability, and vehicle liability. The Partnership insures its properties above the Aimco limits through insurance policies obtained by Aimco from insurers unaffiliated with the Managing General Partner. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Partnership was charged by Aimco and its affiliates approximately $40,000 for hazard insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration.  Additional charges will be incurred by the Partnership during 2013 as other insurance policies renew later in the year.  The Partnership was charged by Aimco and its affiliates approximately $140,000 for insurance coverage and fees associated with policy claims administration during the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

Note C – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 825, “Financial Instruments”, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. Fair value is defined as the amount at which the instruments could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The Partnership is required to classify these fair value measurements into one of three categories, based on the nature of the inputs used in the fair value measurement.  Level 1 of the hierarchy includes fair value measurements based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities the Partnership can access at the measurement date.  Level 2 includes fair value measurements based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  Level 3 includes fair value measurements based on unobservable inputs.  The classification of fair value measurements is subjective and generally accepted accounting principles requires the Partnership to disclose more detailed information regarding those fair value measurements classified within the lower levels of the hierarchy. The Partnership believes that the carrying amount of its financial instruments (except for mortgage notes payable) approximates their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Partnership estimates the fair value of its mortgage notes payable by discounting future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with that currently believed to be available to the Partnership for similar term, mortgage notes payable. The Partnership has classified this fair value measurement within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. At March 31, 2013, the fair value of the Partnership's mortgage notes payable at the Partnership's incremental borrowing rate was approximately $34,642,000.

 

Note D – Sale of Investment Properties

 

On March 29, 2012, the Partnership sold Greenspoint at Paradise Valley to a third party for a gross sale price of $29,750,000. The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $29,432,000 after payment of closing costs.  The Partnership used approximately $15,349,000 of the net proceeds to repay the mortgages encumbering the property. As a result of the sale, the Partnership recorded a gain of approximately $22,314,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, which is included in gain from sale of discontinued operations. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of approximately $4,000 due to the write off of unamortized loan costs, which is included in loss from discontinued operations.

 

On September 28, 2012, the Partnership sold Tamarind Bay Apartments to a third party for a gross sale price of $12,750,000.  The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $12,073,000 after payment of closing costs and a credit for approximately $381,000 to the purchaser for capital improvements. The Partnership used approximately $6,670,000 of the net proceeds to repay the mortgages encumbering the property.

 

Note E – Contingencies

 

The Partnership is unaware of any pending or outstanding litigation matters involving it or its investment properties that are not of a routine nature arising in the ordinary course of business.

 

Various Federal, state and local laws subject property owners or operators to liability for management, and the costs of removal or remediation, of potentially hazardous materials present on a property, including lead-based paint, asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls, petroleum-based fuels, and other miscellaneous materials. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release or presence of such materials. The presence of, or the failure to manage or remedy properly, these materials may adversely affect occupancy at affected apartment communities and the ability to sell or finance affected properties. In addition to the costs associated with investigation and remediation actions brought by government agencies, and potential fines or penalties imposed by such agencies in connection therewith, the improper management of these materials on a property could result in claims by private plaintiffs for personal injury, disease, disability or other infirmities. Various laws also impose liability for the cost of removal, remediation or disposal of these materials through a licensed disposal or treatment facility. Anyone who arranges for the disposal or treatment of these materials is potentially liable under such laws for the proper operation of the disposal facility. These laws often impose liability whether or not the person arranging for the disposal ever owned or operated the disposal facility. In connection with the ownership, operation and management of its properties, the Partnership could potentially be responsible for environmental liabilities or costs associated with its properties.

 

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements in certain circumstances. Certain information included in this Quarterly Report contains or may contain information that is forward-looking within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Partnership’s ability to maintain current or meet projected occupancy, rental rates and property operating results and the effect of redevelopments. Actual results may differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements and, in addition, will be affected by a variety of risks and factors, some of which are beyond the Partnership’s control, including, without limitation: financing risks, including the availability and cost of financing and the risk that the Partnership’s cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest; natural disasters and severe weather such as hurricanes; national and local economic conditions, including the pace of job growth and the level of unemployment; energy costs; the terms of governmental regulations that affect the Partnership’s properties and interpretations of those regulations; the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates; real estate risks, including fluctuations in real estate values and the general economic climate in local markets and competition for residents in such markets; insurance risk, including the cost of insurance; litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting or defending claims and any adverse outcomes; and possible environmental liabilities, including costs, fines or penalties that may be incurred due to necessary remediation of contamination of properties presently owned or previously owned by the Partnership. Readers should carefully review the Partnership’s financial statements and the notes thereto, as well as the other documents the Partnership files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The Partnership's investment properties consist of two apartment complexes. The following table sets forth the average occupancy of the properties for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

 

 

Average Occupancy

Property

2013

2012

 

 

 

The Peak at Vinings Mountain

95%

98%

   Atlanta, Georgia (1)

 

 

Lakeside at Vinings Mountain

92%

97%

   Atlanta, Georgia (1)

 

 

 

(1)   The Managing General Partner attributes the decrease in occupancy at both The Peak at Vinings Mountain and Lakeside at Vinings Mountain to poor economic conditions in the Atlanta area.

 

The Partnership’s financial results depend upon a number of factors including the ability to attract and maintain tenants at the investment properties, interest rates on mortgage loans, costs incurred to operate the investment properties, general economic conditions and weather. As part of the ongoing business plan of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner monitors the rental market environment of its investment properties to assess the feasibility of increasing rents, maintaining or increasing occupancy levels and protecting the Partnership from increases in expenses. As part of this plan, the Managing General Partner attempts to protect the Partnership from the burden of inflation-related increases in expenses by increasing rents and maintaining a high overall occupancy level. However, the Managing General Partner may use rental concessions and rental rate reductions to offset softening market conditions; accordingly, there is no guarantee that the Managing General Partner will be able to sustain such a plan. Further, a number of factors that are outside the control of the Partnership such as the local economic climate and weather can adversely or positively affect the Partnership’s financial results.

 

Results of Operations

 

The Partnership’s net loss was approximately $648,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to net income of approximately $20,929,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  The statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 reflects the operations of Greenspoint at Paradise Valley and Tamarind Bay Apartments as loss from discontinued operations due to their sales on March 29, 2012 and September 28, 2012, respectively.

 

The following table presents summarized results of operations for Greenspoint at Paradise Valley and Tamarind Bay Apartments for the three months ended March 31, 2012 (in thousands):

On March 29, 2012, the Partnership sold Greenspoint at Paradise Valley to a third party for a gross sale price of $29,750,000.  The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $29,432,000 after payment of closing costs.  The Partnership used approximately $15,349,000 of the net proceeds to repay the mortgages encumbering the property. As a result of the sale, the Partnership recorded a gain of approximately $22,314,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, which is included in gain from sale of discontinued operations. In addition, the Partnership recorded a loss on the early extinguishment of debt of approximately $4,000 due to the write off of unamortized loan costs, which is included in loss from discontinued operations.

 

On September 28, 2012, the Partnership sold Tamarind Bay Apartments to a third party for a gross sale price of $12,750,000.  The net proceeds realized by the Partnership were approximately $12,073,000 after payment of closing costs and a credit for approximately $381,000 to the purchaser for capital improvements. The Partnership used approximately $6,670,000 of the net proceeds to repay the mortgages encumbering the property.

 

The Partnership’s loss from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was approximately $648,000 and $851,000, respectively. The decrease in loss from continuing operations is due to a decrease in total expenses, partially offset by a decrease in total revenues.  Total expenses decreased due to decreases in general and administrative, depreciation and interest expenses, partially offset by an increase in property tax expense. Operating expense remained relatively constant for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Depreciation expense decreased primarily due to assets becoming fully depreciated at both properties during 2012 and the first quarter of 2013. Interest expense decreased due to a decrease in interest on advances from AIMCO Properties, L.P., as a result of a lower average outstanding advance balance.  The increase in property tax expense is primarily due to an increase in the assessed value of both properties.

 

General and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to decreases in management reimbursements charged by an affiliate of the Managing General Partner as allowed under the Partnership Agreement and professional expenses associated with the administration of the Partnership. Also included in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 are costs associated with the quarterly and annual communications with investors and regulatory agencies and the annual audit required by the Partnership Agreement.

 

Total revenues decreased due to a decrease in rental income.  Other income remained relatively constant for the comparable periods.  Rental income decreased primarily due to the decreases in occupancy, partially offset by increases in the average rental rate at both The Peak at Vinings Mountain and Lakeside at Vinings Mountain.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At March 31, 2013, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $338,000, compared to approximately $311,000 at December 31, 2012.  Cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $27,000 due to approximately $389,000 of cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by approximately $275,000 and $87,000 of cash used in financing and investing activities, respectively. Cash used in financing activities consisted of repayment of advances from an affiliate of the Managing General Partner and principal payments made on the mortgages encumbering the Partnership’s investment properties.  Cash used in investing activities consisted of property improvements and replacements.

 

AIMCO Properties, L.P., an affiliate of the Managing General Partner has made available to the Partnership a credit line of up to $150,000 per property owned by the Partnership. Prior to 2012, this credit limit was exceeded.  There were no advances made during the three months ended March 31, 2013 or 2012.  AIMCO Properties, L.P. charges interest on advances under the terms permitted by the Partnership Agreement. The interest rates charged on the outstanding advances made to the Partnership ranged from the prime rate plus 0.5% to a variable rate based on the prime rate plus a market rate adjustment for similar type loans. Affiliates of the Managing General Partner review the market rate adjustment quarterly. Interest expense was approximately $1,000 and $70,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Partnership repaid approximately $167,000 and $6,414,000, respectively, of advances and accrued interest with cash from operations and proceeds from the sale of Greenspoint at Paradise Valley, respectively.  At December 31, 2012, the total advances and accrued interest due to AIMCO Properties, L.P. were approximately $166,000 and are included in due to affiliates. No such amounts were owed at March 31, 2013. The Partnership may receive additional advances of funds from AIMCO Properties, L.P. although AIMCO Properties, L.P. is not obligated to provide such advances.  For more information on AIMCO Properties, L.P., including copies of its audited balance sheets, please see its reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The sufficiency of existing liquid assets to meet future liquidity and capital expenditure requirements is directly related to the level of capital expenditures required at the properties to adequately maintain the physical assets and other operating needs of the Partnership and to comply with Federal, state, and local legal and regulatory requirements. The Managing General Partner monitors developments in the area of legal and regulatory compliance. Capital improvements planned for each of the Partnership’s properties are detailed below.

 

Lakeside at Vinings Mountain

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Partnership completed approximately $52,000 of capital improvements at Lakeside at Vinings Mountain, which consisted primarily of floor covering replacement. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during the remainder of 2013. Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.

 

The Peak at Vinings Mountain

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Partnership completed approximately $70,000 of capital improvements at The Peak at Vinings Mountain, which consisted primarily of floor covering replacement. These improvements were funded from operating cash flow. The Partnership regularly evaluates the capital improvement needs of the property. While the Partnership has no material commitments for property improvements and replacements, certain routine capital expenditures are anticipated during the remainder of 2013.  Such capital expenditures will depend on the physical condition of the property as well as anticipated cash flow generated by the property.

 

Capital expenditures will be incurred only if cash is available from operations or from Partnership reserves.  To the extent that capital improvements are completed, the Partnership's distributable cash flow, if any, may be adversely affected at least in the short term.

 

The Partnership’s assets are thought to be sufficient for any near term needs (exclusive of capital improvements) of the Partnership. The mortgage indebtedness encumbering Lakeside at Vinings Mountain and The Peak at Vinings Mountain of approximately $30,073,000 matures in June 2021, at which time balloon payments of approximately $25,514,000 are required.  The Managing General Partner will attempt to refinance such indebtedness and/or sell the properties prior to such maturity dates. If any property cannot be refinanced or sold for a sufficient amount, the Partnership will risk losing such property through foreclosure.

 

There were no distributions during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. If the merger transaction (as discussed below) is not consummated, future cash distributions will depend on the levels of net cash generated from operations and the timing of debt maturities, property sales and/or refinancings. The Partnership's cash available for distribution is reviewed on a monthly basis. There can be no assurance, however, that the Partnership will generate sufficient funds from operations, after planned capital expenditures, to permit any distributions to its partners in 2013 or subsequent periods.

 

Other

 

In addition to its indirect ownership of the general partner interest in the Partnership, Aimco and its affiliates owned 60,711.66 limited partnership units (the “Units”) in the Partnership representing 68.04% of the outstanding Units at March 31, 2013. A number of these Units were acquired pursuant to tender offers made by Aimco or its affiliates.  Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, Unit holders holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters that include, but are not limited to, voting on certain amendments to the Partnership Agreement and voting to remove the Managing General Partner. As a result of its ownership of 68.04% of the outstanding Units, Aimco and its affiliates are in a position to influence all such voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. However, with respect to the 25,228.66 Units acquired on January 19, 1996, AIMCO IPLP, L.P. ("IPLP"), an affiliate of the Managing General Partner and of Aimco, agreed to vote such Units: (i) against any increase in compensation payable to the Managing General Partner or to its affiliates; and (ii) on all other matters submitted by it or its affiliates, in proportion to the vote cast by third party unitholders. Except for the foregoing, no other limitations are imposed on IPLP's, Aimco's or any other affiliates' right to vote each Unit held. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the Managing General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to both the General Partner and Aimco as the sole stockholder of the Managing General Partner. As a result, the duties of the Managing General Partner, as managing general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the Managing General Partner to Aimco as its sole stockholder.

 

On February 28, 2013, the Partnership entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with AIMCO Properties, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and AIMCO CPF XIX Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Merger Subsidiary”), of which AIMCO Properties, L.P. is the sole member, pursuant to which the Merger Subsidiary will be merged with and into the Partnership, with the Partnership as the surviving entity.

In the merger, each unit of limited partnership interest (each, a “Unit”) of the Partnership outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the merger (other than Units held by limited partners who perfect their appraisal rights pursuant to the Merger Agreement) will be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the limited partner, either (i) $364.65 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) or (ii) a number of partnership common units of AIMCO Properties, L.P. calculated by dividing $364.65 by the average closing price of Aimco common stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange, over the ten consecutive trading days ending on the second trading day immediately prior to the effective time of the merger. However, if AIMCO Properties, L.P. determines that the law of the state or other jurisdiction in which a limited partner resides would prohibit the issuance of partnership common units of AIMCO Properties, L.P. in that state or other jurisdiction (or that registration or qualification in that state or jurisdiction would be prohibitively costly), then such limited partner will only be entitled to receive the Cash Consideration for each Unit. Those limited partners who do not make an election will be deemed to have elected to receive the Cash Consideration.

After the merger, AIMCO Properties, L.P.’s membership interest in the Merger Subsidiary will be converted into Units of the Partnership. As a result, after the merger, AIMCO Properties, L.P. will be the sole limited partner of the Partnership, holding all outstanding Units. Fox Partners II will continue to be the general partner of the Partnership after the merger, and the Partnership’s partnership agreement in effect immediately prior to the merger will remain unchanged after the merger.

 

Completion of the merger is subject to certain conditions, including approval by a majority in interest of the limited partners holding Units. In addition, the terms of the merger may be modified before the merger is completed. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were issued and outstanding 89,233 Units, and AIMCO Properties, L.P. and its affiliates owned 60,711.66 of those Units, or approximately 68.04% of the number of Units outstanding. Approximately 25,228.66 of the Units owned by an affiliate of AIMCO Properties, L.P. are subject to a voting restriction, which requires the Units to be voted in proportion to the votes cast with respect to Units not subject to this voting restriction. AIMCO Properties, L.P. and its affiliates have indicated that they will vote all of their Units that are not subject to this restriction, 35,483 Units or approximately 39.76% of the outstanding Units, in favor of the Merger Agreement and the merger. As a result, affiliates of AIMCO Properties, L.P. will vote a total of approximately 49,469 Units, or approximately 55.44% of the outstanding Units in favor of the Merger Agreement and the merger. AIMCO Properties, L.P. and its affiliates have indicated that they intend to take action by written consent to approve the merger.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions.  The Partnership believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Investment properties are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation, unless the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable.  If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a property may not be recoverable, the Partnership will make an assessment of its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to the Partnership’s estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows, excluding interest charges, of the property.  If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the property.

 

Real property investment is subject to varying degrees of risk.  Several factors may adversely affect the economic performance and value of the Partnership’s investment properties.  These factors include, but are not limited to, general economic climate; competition from other apartment communities and other housing options; local conditions, such as loss of jobs or an increase in the supply of apartments that might adversely affect apartment occupancy or rental rates; changes in governmental regulations and the related cost of compliance; increases in operating costs (including real estate taxes) due to inflation and other factors, which may not be offset by increased rents; changes in tax laws and housing laws, including the enactment of rent control laws or other laws regulating multi-family housing; and changes in interest rates and the availability of financing.  Any adverse changes in these and other factors could cause an impairment of the Partnership’s assets.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Partnership generally leases apartment units for twelve-month terms or less.  The Partnership will offer rental concessions during particularly slow months or in response to heavy competition from other similar complexes in the area.  Rental income attributable to leases, net of any concessions, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.  The Partnership evaluates all accounts receivable from residents and establishes an allowance, after the application of security deposits, for accounts greater than 30 days past due on current tenants and all receivables due from former tenants.

 

Item 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a)   Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Partnership’s management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. 

 

(b)   Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
