Accredited Investors only per Rule 501 of Reg. D.

 

Sponsor(s) – Manager – IP of A Fund Manager, LLC, a VA LLC. Special Member – IP of A, LLC (LLC Agrmt. Pg. 1).

 

Master Lessor (Landlord) – LeaseCo, a wholly owned subsidiary of IP of A, LLC (Investment Company of America, LLC).  IP of A is wholly owned by Edward H. Okun (Pg. 34).

 

Description – The purpose of the LLC is to acquire & sell undivided TIC interests in an industrial warehouse located at 5201 West 86th Street, Indianapolis, IN.  The property is an approximate 458,909 sq. ft. INDUSTRIAL PARK, 100% leased to Tra-Mel Enterprises, Inc.

 

The price to the LLC is $13,650,000 ($6,550,000 of equity and $7,100,000 of debt) under 1st. Supplement.

 

The Company (Tenant) will master lease the entire property to IP of A West 86th Street LeaseCo, LLC (LeaseCo) as Landlord for 15 years.  The annual rent % under the Master Lease is scheduled to be 8% yrs. 1 – 5; 9.6% yrs. 6 – 10 & 11.2% yrs. 11 – 15.

 

1.               Manager Experience – IP of A Fund Manager, LLC, the manager is a newly formed VA LLC and has a limited operating history.  Edward H. Okun, its sole owner, has acquired, developed and sold over $500,000,000 of real estate during the past 20 years (no summary or listing however).

Score ____5____

 

2.               Net Worth Consideration –Unaudited statements dated 10-27-04 for IP of A West 86th Street Lease Co  and IP of A West 86th Street, LLC both show a net worth of $100.  Edward Okun will provide a guarantee of up to $500,000 for the obligations of LeaseCo under the Master Lease Agreement. This is an insufficient amount when you consider that it is less than the $1 million lease incentive and the annual lease pymt. of $987K.  There is personally prepared financial statement for Mr. Okun.  However, his unaudited stmt. reflects a Net Worth of $43.6 million, virtually all in real estate and illiquid.  It shows a real estate cost of $47 million & debt of $25.2 million.  The PPM states that Mr. Okun’s net worth shall not be reduced below $45,000,000, higher than even shown on his personal statement.

 

Further, he shows an unverified income figure for 2003 of $572K, but contingent liabilities of $438K.  Finally, he indicates being a 3rd. party defendant in a Parkway lawsuit.

3.         Resale Activity (Track Record) – None – No information at all is provided from Mr. Okun or any of these entities regarding track record of re-sales of real estate or re-financings.  Since December 2003, IP of A, LLC has syndicated an office/manufacturing complex in Columbus, Ohio, a 385,000 sq. ft. enclosed mall located in Richmond, Indiana, a retail strip center in Indianapolis and an industrial/office complex in Indianapolis, IN.  Previously, this last property was approximately 70% leased by T&G Leasing (Piper Logistics) which filed for bankruptcy protection.  IP of A had recently regained possession of the property and is actively seeking tenants.  Further, on page 34, it states that IP of A attempted to syndicate a distribution center in Shreveport, Louisiana in December 2003, but was unable to do so due to a variety of factors beyond its control.  Foremost among the reasons the syndication was not completed were timing problems associated with the due diligence review and managing broker-dealer.

 G.              Pg. 2 of the LLC Agreement provides for the LLC to release all funds to the manager upon receipt of the minimum to go effective amt. of $5 million but BEFORE THE MORGAN STANLEY LOAN CLOSES.  The PPM & Supplement fail to disclose that there is an existing mortgage loan of $6.1 million with Dise Group, LLC (which is an Okun Co.) that will be refinanced by the MS. Loan (See Consent of Co-Owners 11-26-05 doc.& Loan Closing Statement).  The Supplement reduces the minimum to go effective to $3.5 million and does not disclose how the minimum equity and $7.1 million loan will pay Okun the $13.65 million purchase.  What we don’t know is whether there would be a default to Okun, or if there is a new loan for $2.5 million and on what terms or with which lender.

12.         Assumptions – The 5201 Industrial warehouse building in PPM is referred to as a prime suburban Industrial park.  The description in the PPM indicates that the property is 100% occupied by Tra-Mel Enterprises, Inc., when in actuality, it is occupied by Brickyard Properties LLC, as tenant of record.  The appraisal (not given to the claimants) states that this is NOT an INVESTMENT-GRADE TENANT, but the PPM does not.  The PPM also fails to make the disclosure that the guarantors have credit problems and are dependent on only 1 customer.  If tenant fails to pay rent for whatever reason, Tra-Mel Leasing & Point-To-Point Express, Inc. are required to fulfill the obligations.  These entities report a net worth on a compilation basis of $673,900 based upon representations of mgmt. as of 12/2003.  There is no support of audited or reviewed financial statements, but only a compilation.  They are subsidiaries of Tra-Mel

 

Enterprises, Ltd.  Projections include a forecast of 10% rental increases every 5 years.  Years 1 – 5 the lease terms are actually 8.5% while the projection for TIC owners is only 8%.  Years 6 – 10 the lease terms are actually 9.375% while the projection for TIC owners is 9.6% and for years 11-15 the lease terms are actually 10.25% while the projection for TIC owners is 11.2%, somewhat aggressive.  DEBT SERVICE PAYMENTS ARE $535,999 AND THE 8% PAYMENT TO INVESTORS TOTALS $524,000 ($6,550,000 X .08) FOR A TOTAL OF $1,059.999.  However, the scheduled Net lease payment from Brickyard, under the master lease is only $986,654 per year, for the first 5 years and there are no funds for reserves.  THIS IS AN ANNUAL SHORTFALL OF $73,345 PER YEAR FOR THE FIRST 5 YEARS!  The Supplement shows a return on $1 million of unspent reserves of 7.33% every year to cover this shortfall, quite unrealistic.   Subsequently, it is revealed that on January 19, 2005, nearly 4 months after the lease with Brickyard/Tra-Mel, that there is a lease incentive payment referred to.  The single-tenant Lease is amended to state the amount of the incentive payment.   It states that the Landlord will provide to the tenant an incentive payment of $1,000,000 payable as follows:

 

A.        $364,777.53 will serve as Landlord’s offset against charges due from Tenant under the lease along with an offset applied to Tenant’s rent.  The incentive indicates this amount was not current and in default.

 

B.              $210,770.83 will be used to fund Tenant’s security deposit under the lease.

 

C.              $424,451.64 will be a cash payment paid by Landlord to Tenant on the date of closing on the refinancing.  Total   $1,000,000. This incentive for merely signing the lease exceeds the net worth shown on the compiled stmts. for the Tra-mel entities, and the incentive undermines the Guaranty of Lease actually executed by Tra-mel and Point-to-Point on

  

Sept. 16, 2004.  Finally, there is no disclosure of the fact that the building had been vacant for some time prior to its occupancy by Brickyard.                                                                                                      Scor ____1____

 

13.            Percentage of Supply to Demand – I have been informed that according to

opinions of commercial brokers in the area, this section of Indianapolis has had slow and steady growth in commercial real estate but this was not a warehouse that had tripled in value over the last 3 years.  The market value of the property was thought by these commercial brokers to be far below the purchase price.  Even with a purported $1,500,000 of improvements, the warehouse had shown signs of obsolescence because most of the space was built in the late 1950’s.  The appraisal states on page 16, “Almost all modern warehouse/distribution and manufacturing buildings are constructed on a single level, as multi-story facilities (popular in the first half of the century) are FUNCTIONALLY OBSOLETE AND HAVE LIMITED MARKETABILITY IN THE CURRENT MARKET”.  In ours, one half of the warehouse is two stories.  Most critically, the low ceiling height over more than 1/2 of the warehouse floor space prevented the installation of modern racking systems, that are standard in newer warehouse storage.  In the PPM, Bldg. 2 states a ceiling height of 21’5” while the draft appraisal states 18 – 20 feet.  Bldg. 3 in the PPM is shown as 24 feet while the appraisal states 22 feet and Bldg. 4 in the PPM is shown as 26 feet while the appraisal states 24 feet.  These continuous exaggerations are bothersome.  Also noted was the obsolete and narrower loading docks as opposed to the ones standard today, decreasing their efficiency in loading and unloading trucks.  Page 28 of the appraisal summarized the condition of the building as average, whereas the marketing summary (paragraph 5 on the second page) refers to “5201 being well located and in prime condition.”  Finally, rents as determined by commercial brokers in the area were not below market as det. by commercial real estate rental comps.  Page 46  of the appraisal states that the warehouse has been vacant for the last several years undergoing a renovation, but Ex. B to the lease with Brickyard in September 2004, lists all the renovations still necessary.

 

In addition, it would be surprising if renovations took several years to complete and prevented the owner from leasing the warehouse.  Any unsuccessful efforts to lease the building could have been determined by contacting the brokers in the area.                                                                                                                                                      Score ______1_____

Qualification for exchange treatment varies under state law.  R.  The tax treatment of certain expenses of the Offering, closing costs, financing costs or reserves is unclear and may vary depending upon the circumstances. The IRS may disallow various deductions.  T.  Losses and credits from passive activities are limited.  U.  Taxable Income may exceed cash receipts.  V.  The Purchaser may be subject to the alternative minimum tax.  W.  Purchasers may be subject to accuracy related penalties and interest.  In the event of an audit that disallows a purchaser’s deductions or disqualifies the purchaser’s proposed exchange, investors should be aware that the IRS could assess significant penalties and interest on tax deficiencies, including those associated with a failed exchange.  X.  One or more Tenants in Common may default on their obligations.  Z.  The Tenants in Common may be obligated to fund capital expenses.  AA.  Certain actions require unanimous approval of Tenants in Common.  BB.  Certain short-term loans will be recourse to Tenants in Common.  CC.  The purchaser may lose his deposit.  DD.  The Manager may purchase interests.  EE.  Counsel for the Company and its affiliates do not represent the Tenants in Common.  The proceeds realized from the sale of the property will be distributed among the Tenants in Common, but only after payment of the Loan (and any other loans), satisfaction of the claims of other third-party creditors and certain fees owed to the Manager, LeaseCo and their Affiliates.  The Tenants in Common may not owe any fiduciary duty to one another.

            More serious than what is disclosed in the PPM is what is not disclosed in the offering i.e. the weakness of the tenant, problems revealed in the appraisal and the profit to Okun from the sale of the property to the LLC.  This TIC program fails to meet the reasonable basis suitability test and should not be permitted to enter the due diligence process at any broker dealer.

 

TICs in general have a mark-up of 20% – 30%,including the loads.  The property is purchased by the Sponsor from a third party and flipped to the Tenant in Common investors.  Considering this, all of the 1031 tax benefits are absorbed in these promotional costs and are entirely lost to the TIC investor.  Then, since the property is Master Leased by the Sponsor or its affiliate on a net, net net basis, the normal real estate risks of taxes, insurance and maintenance are taken out of the deal.  All market risk is transferred to the Sponsor as Master Lessee.  By structuring the program this way, the transaction actually becomes a credit or loan transaction.  The real estate becomes the collateral for the loan.  The underlying loans are typically cross-collateralized with other such loans on other TIC deals of the Sponsor.  The Sponsor, under the Master Lease, then projects a guaranteed return for up to 10 years, beginning in the range of 6% to 7% per year on the full cash invested by the TIC investor.  These “guaranteed” returns are secured by a Sponsor that is really credit impaired!  This is the real unspoken risk.  There are usually no audited financial statements on the Sponsor and the statements that are in the PPM are un-reviewed, un-certified and  non-GAAP financial statements.  Typically they are burdened by contingent liabilities that are not even included within the liabilities section of the balance sheet.  The Sponsor’s lease obligations on other TIC’s are classified as operating leases as opposed to what they really are – capital leases.  Operating leases do not have to be shown as real liabilities on the balance sheet and thereby, increase the net worth proportionally, by this elimination.  The leverage in these TIC deals is usually at least 65% of the purchase price and 50% of the marked-up cost to the TIC investors.  Those investors assume the loan on a pro-rata basis based upon their invested dollars as they bear to the total dollars invested.  These loans remain non-recourse to the investors unless there is a default by the Sponsor and Master Lessee.  When default occurs, the TIC investors become liable for their portion of the loan foreclosed upon as debt forgiveness.  Not only do they lose the property and their entire investment but also have an ordinary income tax event due to the debt forgiveness caused by the foreclosure.
