Return Structure

Investors have the opportunity to invest in Class A and/or Class B Limited Partnership Interests.

Limited Partner (A) - Class A

Class A Limited Partner’s earn a coupon of 9% per annum of such Limited Partner’s investment in Partnership (the “Class A Coupon”). Class A Limited Partners have limited distributions upon disposition of the Property. This tier offers stronger projected cash flow and reduced risk as compared to Class B Limited Partners.

Limited Partner (B) - Class B

Class B Limited Partners earn a coupon of 7% per annum of such Limited Partner’s investment in Partnership (the “Class B Coupon”). Upon the disposition of the Property, after payment of debt, return of Class A and Class B Limited Partner investments, payment of any unpaid Class A and Class B Coupon Amounts, and then, prorata, seventy percent (70%) to the Class B Limited Partners and thirty percent (30%) to the General Partner until such time as the Class B Limited Partners have received a cumulative amount equal to thirteen percent (13%) IRR. Then, Class B Limited Partners will receive 50% of the remaining proceeds from disposition. This tier has a lower coupon but provides greater participation upon disposition or capital event compared to Class A Limited Partners.
