FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Investment Properties Associates Agrees
In Principle to Sell Assets
New York, New York, June 24, 1997... Investment Properties Associates ("IPA")
announced today that, subject to a variety of conditions, including additional
due diligence by the buyer and definitive documentation, IPA has agreed in
principle to sell substantially all of its interests in its office building
properties in a cash transaction valued at approximately $255 million. If
consummated, the proceeds of the sale transaction would be used to repay
indebtedness and other obligations of IPA of approximately $70 million. The
balance of the net proceeds would, after transaction expenses, be distributed
approximately one-half to the general and special limited partners of IPA and
approximately one-half to the holders of its participations of limited
partnership interest in accordance with IPA's partnership agreement.
A spokesman for IPA said that there could be no assurances that the
conditions to the agreement in principle would be satisfied or that the sale
would be consummated.
IPA is a limited partnership that owns commercial office buildings in New
York, Chicago, Texas and Newark.
