Prete, collectively the operating general partner of Branford, and Terrace House, LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company (the “Assignee”), relating to the assignment of the limited partnership interest held by the Registrant in Branford for a total price of $1,530,000. The Registrant’s investment balance in Branford was zero at September 30, 2012.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, on December 14, 2012, the Registrant assigned its limited partnership interest in Branford to the Assignee effective as of December 13, 2012, and received net proceeds of $1,530,000.
