INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS’ REVIEW REPORT

To the Members

Wendcharles II, LLC

27 Central Avenue

Cortland, New York

We have reviewed the accompanying statements of assets, liabilities and members’ capital-income tax basis of Wendcharles II, LLC as of December 29, 2013 and December 30, 2012 and the related statements of revenues and expenses-income tax basis, changes in members’ capital (deficit)-income tax basis and cash flows-income tax basis for the years then ended. A review includes primarily applying analytical procedures to management’s financial data and making inquiries of company management. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the income tax basis of accounting and for designing, implementing, and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements.

Our responsibility is to conduct the reviews in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require us to perform procedures to obtain limited assurance that there are no material modifications that should be made to the financial statements. We believe that the results of our procedures provide a reasonable basis for our report.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with the income tax basis of accounting, as described in Note 1.

Wendcharles II, LLC

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 29, 2013 and December 30, 2012

Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

(A)

The Company:

Wendcharles II, LLC was formed on June 24, 2008 pursuant to the South Carolina Code of Laws to acquire, own and operate six existing Wendy’s Old Fashioned Hamburger Restaurants in the Charleston, South Carolina metropolitan area. As part of the same overall transaction, another South Carolina limited liability company, Wendcharles I, LLC, affiliated with the Company by certain common management and ownership interests, acquired eleven other existing Wendy’s Old Fashioned Hamburger Restaurants in and proximate to North Charleston. The restaurants were all acquired from one unrelated seller for an aggregate purchase price of $5,760,000, less net adjustments to the Company of approximately $14,000. The Company’s recorded goodwill in the amount of approximately $4,060,000. The purchase price was financed principally by a $3,500,000 loan from Bank of America, with the balance provided by capital contributions of the members. The acquisition closed and restaurant operations commenced on September 16, 2008.

The leases for the six leasehold estates, all in South Carolina, were assigned to the Company from different lessors. Two locations each are in Goose Creek and Summerville and one each is in North Charleston and Moncks Corner as follows: Goose Creek: 101 Red Bank Road; and 601 St. James Avenue; Summerville: 740 North Main Street; and 10012 Dorchester Road; North Charleston: 7440 Northwoods Boulevard; and Moncks Corner: 515 North Highway 52.

The Company is to continue in perpetuity, except it is to be dissolved as a result of the sale of all business operations or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets, in each of such cases upon the receipt of the consideration therefor in cash or the reduction to cash of non-cash consideration, or upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in the operating agreement. (See Note 5B).

On December 26, 2011 the Company purchased the assets for a restaurant located at Sam Rittenberg Boulevard in Charleston, North Carolina from Wendcharles I, LLC, a related party. The Company also assumed the lease for the property. (See Note 4B).

In 2013 the Company purchased the assets for a restaurant located at 4892 Ashley Phosphate Road restaurant in North Charleston, North Carolina from Wendcharles I, LLC, a related party. The Company also assumed the lease for the property. (See Note 4B).

The Company currently operates eight restaurants, all of which are leased. (See Note 4B).

 

(B)

Income Tax Basis of Accounting:

The Company is treated as a partnership for federal and South Carolina income tax purposes. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting used to prepare the Company’s federal partnership return. Such other comprehensive basis of accounting differs in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements are not intended to present financial position and results of operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

See independent accountants’ review report.

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 29, 2013 and December 30, 2012

 

Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—(Continued):

 

(C)

Inventories:

Inventories represent food and supplies and are stated at cost.

 

(D)

Property, Equipment and Depreciation:

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided by application of the straight-line method over depreciable lives as follows:

 

Land improvements			15 to 39 years
Leasehold improvements			15 to 39 years
Restaurant equipment			5 to 7 years

If it had qualifying property placed in service during the year, the Company has taken additional depreciation deductions in accordance with the federal government’s enactment of the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, amended by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, and the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization and Job Creation Act of 2010.

 

(E)

Goodwill:

Goodwill, representing the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired, is amortized over fifteen years.

 

(F)

Deferred Costs:

The Company capitalized the costs incurred in obtaining its financing and its leases. These costs are amortized over the life of the loan.

 

(G)

Income Taxes:

The Company was organized as a Limited Liability Company under the laws of South Carolina and is not subject to any federal or state income tax. For federal and South Carolina income tax purposes, the Company is treated as a partnership. Accordingly, each member is required to report on his federal and applicable state income tax return his distributive share of all items of income, gain, loss, deduction, credit and tax preference of the Company for any taxable year, whether or not any cash distribution has been or will be made to such member.

The Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by the Federal and State taxing authorities. The tax laws, rules and regulations governing these returns are complex, technical and subject to varying interpretations. If an examination required the Company to make adjustments, the profit or loss allocated to the members would be adjusted accordingly. Management believes the Company is no longer subject to tax examinations for the years prior to 2010.

Although income tax rules are used to determine the timing of the reporting of revenues and expenses, non-taxable revenues and non-deductible expenses are included in the determination of net income in the accompanying financial statements.

Note 5—Capitalization and Operating Agreement

 

(A)

Capitalization:

The Company’s initial capitalization consisted of 800 units, of which 42 and 32 were sold to two managing members at $100 per unit, or $7,400 in the aggregate, and 64 units were sold to the third managing member at $156 per unit, or $10,000 in the aggregate. Of the remaining 646 units, 83 were sold at $100 per unit, or $8,300 in the aggregate, and 579 units were sold at per unit contributions of $2,300 totaling $1,331,700. All contributions totaled $1,357,400. (See Note 5B).

In March of 2013 the Company issued 795 additional units, of which 731 were sold to the members at $2,000 per unit, or $1,462,000 in the aggregate. 64 units were issued to its President at no cost.

 

(B)

Operating Agreement:

All purchasers of membership interests are parties to the Company’s operating agreement which provides for the capitalization and operation of the Company, distributions to members and transfers of interests. Members’ consents representing 75% of all membership interests are required for the following actions: Change in the operating agreement; voluntary dissolution; sale or exchange of substantially all assets; merger or consolidation; incurrence of debt or refinancing other than in the ordinary course of business or in connection with entering new or unrelated businesses; and removal of a manager, for cause. Members are not required to make up negative capital accounts.

Distributions either from cash flow generated by operations or capital transactions (as defined) other than capital contributions are made at the sole discretion of the managers, acting unanimously. Managers are elected by the members. Outside liens against membership interests are prohibited. For permitted transfers of membership interests, book value is equal to assets less liabilities using the income tax method/accrual basis of accounting, except for transfers involving the interest owned by the Company’s President, in which case a special valuation adjustment is required through August 2013.

Members wishing to sell their interests shall submit their request in writing, together with appropriate documentation setting forth the terms of such sale, to the managing members, who within thirty days and at their sole discretion, shall approve or disapprove of such sale. If not approved, the managing members within fourteen additional days may elect to have the Company purchase the offered units at the stated terms. Such action by the managing members is to be by simple majority. If the managing members determine that the offered interests are not to be redeemed by the Company, then the interests shall be offered to the remaining members of the Company, pro-rata at the same offered terms, who will have 14 additional days to purchase the offered shares. If the interests are not purchased by the members, then they may be sold to the third-party purchaser at the offered terms, but the purchaser must become bound by the terms of the operating agreement. Membership interests may also be transferred to family members or trusts or by reason of death or incompetence.
