Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On March 31, 2014, Wells Fund XIII-REIT Joint Venture Partnership (“Fund XIII-REIT Associates”), a joint venture partnership between Wells Real Estate Fund XIII, L.P. (the “Registrant”) and Piedmont Operating Partnership, LP entered into an agreement to sell a four-story office building containing approximately 194,000 rentable square feet and located in Hoffman Estates, Illinois (“Two Park Center”) to an unaffiliated third party (the "Buyer"), for a gross sales price of $8,825,000, exclusive of closing costs (the “Agreement”). The Agreement is subject to a 45-day due diligence period. An initial earnest money deposit of $500,000 is due from the Buyer within two business days of date of the Agreement and will become non-refundable upon the expiration of the due diligence period. The Registrant expects the closing of this transaction to occur during the second quarter of 2014; however, there are no assurances regarding when or if this sale will be completed. The Registrant holds an equity interest of approximately 28.11% in Fund XIII-REIT Associates, which owns 100% of the Two Park Center.
