AMENDMENT NO. 13 TO SCHEDULE 13D
This statement ("Statement") constitutes Amendment No. 13 to the
Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") on November 13, 1995, as amended to date (the "Initial Filing").
Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Initial Filing.
This Statement hereby amends the items identified below, or the
particular paragraphs of such items which are identified below.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:
On December 7, 1999, High River Limited Partnership ("High River"),
Riverdale LLC ("Riverdale"), Carl C. Icahn ("Mr. Icahn") and Longacre Corp.
("Longacre" and together with High River, Riverdale and Mr. Icahn, the "Icahn
Parties") entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") and a
voting agreement (the "Voting and Standstill Agreement") with the McNeil
Partnerships (as defined below), McNeil Partners, L.P. (the "General Partner"),
McNeil Investors, Inc. ("McNeil Investors"), McNeil Real Estate Management, Inc.
("McREMI"), Robert A. McNeil and Carole J. McNeil (collectively, the "McNeil
Parties"), in connection with the settlement of litigation brought by High
River, Unicorn and Longacre against the General Partner, McNeil Investors,
McREMI, Robert A. McNeil and Carole J. McNeil.
As used herein, "McNeil Partnerships" means McNeil Real Estate Fund IX,
Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund X, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XI, Ltd., McNeil
Real Estate Fund XII, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XIV, Ltd., McNeil Real
Estate Fund XV, Ltd., McNeil Real Estate Fund XX, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund
XXI, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXII, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXIII,
L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXIV, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXV, L.P.,
McNeil Real Estate Fund XXVI, L.P., McNeil Real Estate Fund XXVII, L.P., Hearth
Hollow Associates, L.P., McNeil Midwest Properties I, L.P., Regency North
Associates, L.P., Fairfax Associates II, Ltd. and McNeil Summerhill I, L.P.
Settlement Agreement
The Settlement Agreement settles and disposes of all claims, demands
and causes of action existing as of December 7, 1999 and arising out of,
connected with or incidental to the dealings between the parties to the
Settlement Agreement, including all claims, demands and causes of action
reflected in the action Schofield et al. v. McNeil Partners, L.P. et al. (the
"Schofield litigation") or the action High River Limited Partnership et al. v.
McNeil Partners, L.P. et al. (the "High River litigation"), as well as all prior
disputes arising out of events in the years preceding and leading up to the
execution of the Master Agreement (the "Master Agreement") entered into on June
24, 1999 among the McNeil Partnerships, the General Partner, McNeil Investors,
McREMI, McNeil Summerhill, Inc., Robert A. McNeil and WXI/McN Realty L.L.C., an
affiliate of Whitehall Street Real Estate Limited Partnership XI ("WXI/McN
Realty"). The Master Agreement was filed as an Exhibit to the Partnership's
Current Report on Form 8-K, dated June 29, 1999. The Schofield litigation
referred to above is described in
<PAGE>
more detail in Section 8 of the Offer to Purchase included as an Exhibit to the
Schedule 14D-1 Tender Offer Statement filed by High River and Mr. Icahn on
September 20, 1996. The High River litigation is an action filed on July 23,
1999 by High River, Unicorn and Longacre in the Supreme Court of the State of
New York, New York County, against the General Partner, McNeil Investors,
McRemi, Robert A. McNeil and Carole J. McNeil alleging, among other things, that
the defendants improperly interfered with tender offers made by High River for
limited partner units in the Partnership and improperly excluded High River from
participating in the auction process for the sale of the McNeil Partnerships.
The High River litigation also contains allegations against the defendants based
upon the plaintiffs' status as opt-outs from the settlement of the Schofield
Litigation. On July 30, 1999 defendants filed an answer to the complaint in the
High River litigation denying the material allegations in the complaint and
asserting several affirmative defenses. Other than as described below, the terms
of the Settlement Agreement are subject to a confidentiality agreement among the
McNeil Parties and the Icahn Parties.
On December 7, 1999, concurrently with the execution of the Settlement
Agreement, the Icahn Parties dismissed, with prejudice, as to all parties, with
each party bearing its own costs and attorneys' fees, the High River litigation
as well as any appeal of the Final Order and Judgment in the Schofield
litigation.
In consideration of, among other things, the dismissal of the High
River litigation and any appeal of the Final Order and Judgment in the Schofield
litigation, the mutual general releases and covenant not to sue described below,
McNeil Partners, McREMI, McNeil Investors, Robert A. McNeil and Carole J. McNeil
will make a cash settlement payment to High River at the closing of the
transactions contemplated by the Master Agreement, provided that the Settlement
Agreement has not been terminated.
The McNeil Partnerships and their subsidiaries have no liability or
obligation with respect to the settlement payment. Moreover, Robert A. McNeil
and Carole J. McNeil have agreed that notwithstanding that they may be entitled
to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of the limited partnership
agreements governing the McNeil Partnerships, neither they, nor their
affiliates, will seek or accept from any McNeil Partnership, or any subsidiary
corporation or subsidiary partnership of a McNeil Partnership, payment or
reimbursement of any portion of the settlement payment or related legal fees.
The Settlement Agreement provides for mutual general releases by the
Icahn Parties, on the one hand, and by the McNeil Parties and WXI/McN Realty, on
the other hand. Each of the Icahn Parties, on the one hand, and each of the
McNeil Parties and WXI/McN Realty, on the other hand, also has agreed not to
initiate, file or pursue any action, claim, suit or proceeding against the other
that concerns any of the matters which are the subject of the releases. The
releases and covenant not to sue also apply to the respective predecessors,
successors, present and former affiliates, subsidiaries, parents, assigns,
officers, directors, equity holders, partners, members, controlling persons,
employees, attorneys, financial advisors, investment bankers and agents of the
Icahn Parties, the McNeil Parties and, with some exceptions, WXI/McN Realty.
<PAGE>
The Settlement Agreement terminates in its entirety on the date which
is the earliest to occur of (1) June 30, 2000, if the closing of the transaction
contemplated by the Master Agreement has not occurred on or prior to June 30,
2000; (2) the termination of the Master Agreement in its entirety; and (3) the
termination of the Master Agreement with respect to the last participating
McNeil Partnership.
The Settlement Agreement does not constitute an admission of damages,
wrongdoing or liability by any party.
Voting and Standstill Agreement
On December 7, 1999, in consideration of the McNeil Parties and the
Icahn Parties executing and delivering the Settlement Agreement, the McNeil
Parties and the Icahn Parties also entered into a Voting Agreement (the "Voting
and Standstill Agreement") with respect to the limited partner units
beneficially owned by the Icahn Parties in the McNeil Partnerships.
Mr. Icahn and his affiliates agreed in the Voting and Standstill
Agreement to vote all of the limited partner units beneficially owned and held
of record by them in any of the McNeil Partnerships (and granted certain
officers of McNeil Investors an irrevocable proxy to vote such limited partner
units) for the merger of such McNeil Partnership contemplated by the Master
Agreement and for certain other related matters with respect to such McNeil
Partnerships. Mr. Icahn and his affiliates also agreed in the Voting and
Standstill Agreement to direct the holders of record of any limited partner
units beneficially owned by them but not held of record by them in any of the
McNeil Partnerships to vote those limited partner units for the merger of such
McNeil Partnership contemplated by the Master Agreement and for certain other
related matters with respect to such McNeil Partnership.
The Voting and Standstill Agreement also includes a standstill
provision and a no solicitation provision pursuant to which each of the Icahn
Parties, its affiliates and its subsidiaries have agreed to certain restrictions
on their actions with respect to the McNeil Partnerships and related parties.
The standstill provision and no solicitation provision automatically terminate
with respect to all of the McNeil Partnerships on December 7, 2002, and
terminate with respect to particular McNeil Partnerships under certain other
circumstances, including (1) automatic termination if that McNeil Partnership
becomes an "excluded McNeil Partnership" pursuant to the Master Agreement; and
(2) in the case of any of McNeil Partnerships IX, X, XI, XIV, XV, XX, XXIV, XXV,
XXVI and XXVII, termination at the option of the Icahn Parties if the per unit
aggregate amount payable or estimated to be payable with respect to limited
partner units in that McNeil Partnership is reduced below a specified amount.
The Voting and Standstill Agreement terminates in its entirety on the
date which is the earliest to occur of (1) June 30, 2000, if the closing of the
transaction contemplated by the Master Agreement has not occurred on or prior to
June 30, 2000; (2) the termination of the Master Agreement in its entirety; and
(3) the termination of the Master Agreement with respect to the last
participating McNeil Partnership.
The foregoing description of the Voting and Standstill Agreement is a
summary only and is qualified in its entirety by
<PAGE>
reference to the Voting and Standstill Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit
hereto and which is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Paragraphs (a) - (b) of this Item are hereby amended to read in their
entirety as follows:
(a) - (b) The 11,836 Units which are listed above as being beneficially
owned by the Reporting Persons consist of 9,539 Units directly beneficially
owned by High River and 2,297 Units directly beneficially owned by Unicorn. Such
Units represent approximately 8.77%, 7.07% and 1.70%, respectively, of the
outstanding Units, based upon the Partnership's most recent Form 10-Q. Carl C.
Icahn is the controlling member of Riverdale (the general partner of High River)
and indirectly beneficially owns all of the issued and outstanding shares of
capital stock of Unicorn. Mr. Icahn indirectly beneficially owns all of the
Units directly beneficially owned by High River and Unicorn. Riverdale
indirectly beneficially owns all of the Units directly beneficially owned by
High River.
Neither the filing of this Amendment nor its contents shall be deemed
an admission that the Reporting Persons are part of a "group" with the McNeil
Parties (as defined in Item 4) as a result of entering into the Settlement
Agreement or the Voting and Standstill Agreement described in Item 4. The
Reporting Persons expressly disclaim formation of a "group" with the McNeil
Parties and expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of any Units owned by the
McNeil Parties.

(a) Except as provided by Article V and Sections
6.1(b), 6.1(c) and 6.1(d) hereof, the representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect indefinitely.
(b) The rights and obligations of the parties hereto
contained in Articles IV and V of this Agreement with respect to a particular
McNeil Partnership (and each Subsidiary corporation and Subsidiary partnership
thereof) shall terminate if and when such McNeil Partnership becomes an Excluded
McNeil Partnership through the operation of Section 9.3 of the Master Agreement,
it being understood that within 3 Business Days after the date of any McNeil
Party's receipt or delivery of
13
<PAGE>
notice pursuant to such Section 9.3, such McNeil Party will deliver a copy of
such notice to the Securityholders.
(c) In the case of a Listed McNeil Partnership only,
the Securityholders shall have the right to terminate the rights and obligations
of the parties hereto contained in Articles IV and V of this Agreement with
respect to such Listed McNeil Partnership (and each Subsidiary corporation and
Subsidiary partner ship thereof) if the definitive Proxy Statement, any Proxy
Statement supplement or any press release announcing a reduction in the Per Unit
Aggregate Amount (or a reduction in the estimate thereof) payable with respect
to a class of LP Interests in such Listed McNeil Partnership provides that the
Per Unit Aggregate Amount payable (or estimated to be payable) with respect to
such class of LP Interests in such Listed McNeil Partnership is less than the
Minimum Amount with respect to such class of LP Interests in such Listed McNeil
Partnership. To terminate such rights and obligations pursuant to this
provision, the Securityholders shall deliver a notice to the McNeil Parties
within 10 Business Days after the date of the applicable definitive Proxy
Statement, or Proxy Statement supplement or the date a copy of such press
release is furnished to them pursuant to Section 6.1(f) hereof; failure to give

pursuant to this Section 6.1(c).
(d) The covenants and agreements contained in this
Agreement shall terminate in their entirety on the date which is the earliest to

(f) MPLP hereby agrees that it will promptly issue a
press release and furnish a copy thereof to the Securityholders if, at any time
subsequent to the date of the definitive Proxy Statement with respect to a
Listed McNeil Partner ship, the Per Unit Aggregate Amount (or the estimate
thereof) payable with respect
14
<PAGE>
to a class of LP Interests in such Listed McNeil Partnership is reduced to an
amount less than the Minimum Amount with respect to such class of LP Interests
in such Listed McNeil Partnership.
Section 6.2 Specific Performance. Each Securityholder
recognizes and agrees that if for any reason any of the provisions of this
Agreement are not per formed by such Securityholder in accordance with their
specific terms or are other wise breached, immediate and irreparable harm or
injury would be caused to MPLP for which money damages would not be an adequate
remedy. Accordingly, each Securityholder agrees that, in addition to any other
available remedies, MPLP shall be entitled to an injunction restraining any
violation or threatened violation of the provisions of this Agreement without
the necessity of MPLP posting a bond or other form of security. In the event

Agreement, each Securityholder agrees that it will not allege, and each
Securityholder hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at
law.
