Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (unaudited)

Note A Organization and basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position of Registrant as of June 30, 2000, its results of operations for the six and three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 and its changes in Partners' capital for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Information included in the condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 has been derived from the audited balance sheet included in Registrant's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 (the "10-K") previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements unless significant changes have taken place since the end of the most recent fiscal year. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes to financial statements and the other information in the 10-K. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

Note B Interim Period Reporting

Registrant was organized as a partnership on March 21, 1958. Registrant owned the tenant's interest in the long-term ground lease (the "Lease") of the buildings located at 500 and 512 Seventh Avenue and 228 West 38th Street, New York, New York (the "Property") until Registrant sold the Lease on December 23, 1999 on the economic terms described in the accompanying financial statements. Registrant ceased to be a partnership on December 23, 1999 when the interests of its partner Agents were redeemed by conveyance to them of direct pro rata interests in the Property. The partnership's final tax return was filed for the period ending December 23, 1999. After December 23, 1999, such former partners (the "Agents") continued the ownership of the Lease as co-tenants for the benefit of the Participants, and the co-tenancy has conducted its business under the name "Navarre-500 Building Associates, a co-tenancy", all for the benefit of the Participants on all the same pre-existing economic and investment terms through the date of such sale and thereafter. In accordance with the terms of the contract of sale, Seller is required to hold 5% of the gross sales price in reserve for one year for contingencies. At June 30, 2000 the balance in the escrow account was $2,851,576. Accordingly, reference herein to Registrant is a reference to Navarre-500 Building Associates, a co-tenancy. Registrant's Agents were Peter L. Malkin and Thomas N. Keltner, Jr. who are now the co-tenant Agents. The land underlying the buildings was owned by an unaffiliated third party and was leased to

Registrant under the Lease. The current term of the Lease as extended was to expire on May 1, 2024. The Lease provided for one 21-year renewal option. The annual rent payable by Registrant under the Lease was $487,500 during the current and renewal term.

Registrant did not operate the Property, but subleased the Property to 500-512 Seventh Avenue Associates ("Sublessee") pursuant to a net operating sublease (the "Sublease"), of which the current renewal term was to expire on April 30, 2024. The Sublease provided for one renewal option co-extensive with the Lease. Peter L. Malkin, an Agent in Registrant, has also been a partner and now a co-tenant in Sublessee. The Agents in Registrant are also members of Wien & Malkin LLP, which provides supervisory and other services to Registrant and to Sublessee ("Supervisor"). See Note C of this Item 1 ("Note C").

Under the Sublease, Sublessee must pay (i) annual basic rent of $1,167,500 during the current renewal term and the additional renewal term (the "Basic Rent") and (ii) additional rent to Registrant during the current term and the renewal term equal to 50% of Sublessee's net operating profit in excess of $620,000 for each lease year ending June 30 (the "Additional Rent").

There was no Additional Rent paid by Sublessee for the lease year ended June 30, 1999.

Note C Supervisory Services

Registrant paid Supervisor for special services at hourly rates and for supervisory services and disbursements. The supervisory fees are $40,000 per annum (the "Basic Payment") plus 10% of all distributions to Participants in any year in excess of the amount representing a return at the rate of 23% per annum on their remaining cash investment in Registrant (the "Additional Payment"). At June 30, 2000, such remaining original cash investment was $3,200,000, representing the original cash investment of the Participants in Registrant.

No remuneration was paid during the six month period ended June 30, 2000 by Registrant to any of the Agents as such. The supervisory services included, among other items, the preparation of certain reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the monitoring or coordination of certain other areas of legal compliance, the preparation of certain financial reports, as well as the supervision of accounting and

other documentation related to the administration of Registrant's business. Out of its fees, Supervisor paid all disbursements and costs of regular accounting services.

Reference is made to Note B of Item 1 (Note "B") for a description of the terms of the Sublease between Registrant and Sublessee. The respective interests, if any, of the Agents in Registrant and Sublessee arise solely from their respective ownership of participations, if any, in Registrant and, in the case of Mr. Malkin, his ownership of a partnership or co-tenant interest in Sublessee. The Agents received no extra or special benefit not shared on a pro rata basis with all other Participants in Registrant or partners or co-tenants in Sublessee. However, each of the Agents, by reason of his respective interest in Supervisor, is entitled to receive his pro rata share of any fees or other remuneration paid to Supervisor for services rendered to Registrant and Sublessee.

As of June 30, 2000, the Agents owned of record and beneficially $8,125 participations in Registrant, representing 0.25% of the currently outstanding participations therein.

In addition, as of June 30, 2000, certain of the Agents in Registrant (or their respective spouses) held additional Participations as follows:

Entities for the benefit of members of Peter L. Malkin's family owned of record and beneficially $35,000 of Participations. Mr. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations, except that related trusts are required to complete scheduled payments to Mr. Malkin.

Peter L. Malkin, Trustee of Mattee Saunders 1983 Trust, owned $7,500 of Participations. Mr. Malkin disclaims any beneficial ownership of such Participations.

In accordance with the provisions of the respective participating agreements, Peter L. Malkin and Thomas N. Keltner, Jr., in their capacity as agent, purchased from non-consenting Participants an aggregate of $6,875 of participations for the benefit of consenting Participants, all on the terms described in the Agents' Consent Solicitations dated July 15, 1999. Each such purchase may be revised at the discretion of the Agents upon receipt of the consent from the applicable non-consenting Participant.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of

Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Registrant was a partnership and is now a co-tenancy. As stated in Note B, Registrant was organized for the purpose of acquiring the Master Lease subject to the Sublease. Basic Rent received under the Sublease was used to pay annual rent due under the Master Lease and the Basic Payment to Supervisor for supervisory services. The balance of the Basic Rent was distributed to the Participants. Additional Rent was distributed to the Participants after the Additional Payment to Supervisor. See Note C above. Pursuant to the Sublease, Sublessee had assumed sole responsibility for the condition, operation, repair, maintenance and management of the Property. Registrant did not need to maintain substantial reserves or otherwise maintain liquid assets to defray any operating expenses of the Property.

Registrant did not pay dividends. On January 1, 2000, a regular distribution of $36,882 was made to participants and a distribution of sales proceeds of $47,080,000 was made on January 14, 2000. There were no restrictions on Registrant's ability to make distributions; however, the amount of such distributions, particularly distributions of Additional Rent, depended solely on the ability of Sublessee to make payments of Basic Rent and Additional Rent to Registrant. Registrant expected to make distributions so long as it received the payments provided for under the Sublease. See Note B of Item 1 above.

Registrant's results of operations were affected primarily by the amount of rent payable to it under the Sublease.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Property of Registrant is the subject of the following pending litigation:

Wien & Malkin LLP, et. al. v. Helmsley-Spear, Inc., et. al. On June 19, 1997 Wien & Malkin LLP and Peter L. Malkin filed an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, against Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and Leona Helmsley concerning various partnerships which own, lease or operate buildings managed by Helmsley-Spear, Inc., including Registrant's property. In their complaint, plaintiffs sought the removal of Helmsley-Spear, Inc. as managing and leasing agent for all of the buildings. Plaintiffs also sought an order precluding Leona Helmsley from exercising any partner management powers in the partnerships. In August, 1997, the Supreme Court directed that the foregoing claims proceed to arbitration. As a result, Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP filed an arbitration complaint against Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and Mrs. Helmsley before the American Arbitration Association. Helmsley-Spear, Inc. and Mrs. Helmsley served answers denying liability and asserting various affirmative defenses and counterclaims; and Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP filed a reply denying the counterclaims. By agreement dated December 16, 1997, Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP (each for their own account and not in any representative capacity) reached a settlement with Mrs. Helmsley of the claims and counterclaims in the arbitration and litigation between them. Mr. Malkin and Wien & Malkin LLP are continuing their prosecution of claims in the arbitration for relief against Helmsley-Spear, Inc., including its termination as the leasing and managing agent for various entities and properties, including the Registrant's Sublessee.
