Note 3 – Transactions with Affiliated Parties

 

Under the terms of the Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership, the Partnership is obligated to NAPICO for an annual management fee equal to 0.4 percent of the Partnership’s original remaining invested assets of the Local Limited Partnerships at the beginning of the year.  Invested assets is defined as the costs of acquiring project interests, including the proportionate amount of the mortgage loans related to the Partnership's interests in the capital accounts of the respective Local Limited Partnerships.  The management fee was approximately $19,000 and $28,000 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

During 2012 and 2011, an affiliate of Aimco was the general partner and property management agent for Better Housing Associates.  This Local Limited Partnership paid the affiliate property management fees in the amount of 5 percent of its gross rental revenue and data processing fees. The amounts paid were approximately $25,000 and $23,000 for the years ended December 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Bethesda and its affiliates owned 2,914.94 limited partnership interests in the Partnership representing 22.39% of the outstanding limited partnership interests in the Partnership at December 31, 2012. It is possible that Bethesda or its affiliates will acquire additional limited partnership interests, either through private purchases or tender offers. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, holders holding a majority of the limited partnership interests 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 General Partner. Although the General Partner owes fiduciary duties to the limited partners of the Partnership, the General Partner also owes fiduciary duties to Bethesda as its sole stockholder. As a result, the duties of the General Partner, as general partner, to the Partnership and its limited partners may come into conflict with the duties of the General Partner to Bethesda as its sole stockholder.
