CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. The General Partner and its affiliates have conflicts of interest with respect to the Offer as set forth below. Conflicts of Interest with Respect to the Offer. The General Partner has conflicts of interest with respect to the Offer, including conflicts resulting from its affiliation with IPT and the Purchaser. The General Partner also would have a conflict of interest (i) as a result of the fact that a sale or liquidation of the Partnership's assets would result in a decrease or elimination of the fees paid to the General Partner and/or its affiliates and (ii) as a consequence of the Purchaser's ownership of Units, because the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) may have incentives to seek to maximize the value of its ownership of Units, which in turn may result in a conflict for the General Partner in attempting to reconcile the interests of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) with the interests of the other Limited Partners. In addition, the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is making the Offer with a view to making a profit. Accordingly, there is a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) to purchase Units at a low price and the desire of the Limited Partners to sell their Units at a high price. The General Partner has indicated in the Schedule 14D-9 that it is remaining neutral and making no recommendation as to whether Limited Partners should tender their Units pursuant to the Offer. LIMITED PARTNERS ARE URGED TO READ THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9 AND THE RELATED MATERIALS CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER THEIR UNITS. Voting by the Purchaser. The Limited Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner has absolute discretion as to whether to admit an assignee of Units to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner. The Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) will seek to be admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner upon consummation of the Offer and, when admitted, will have the right to vote each Unit purchased pursuant to the Offer. Even if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is not admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner, however, the Purchaser nonetheless will have the right to vote each Unit purchased in the Offer pursuant to the irrevocable appointment by tendering Limited Partners of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) and its managers and designees as proxies with respect to the Units tendered by such Limited Partners and accepted for payment by the Purchaser. See Section 3. As a result, if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is successful in acquiring a significant number of Units pursuant to the Offer, the Purchaser will have the right to vote those Units and thereby significantly influence all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. In general, IPLP and the Purchaser (which are affiliates of the General Partner) will vote the Units owned by them in whatever manner they deem to be in IPT's best interests, which, because of their relationship with the General Partner, also may be in the best interest of the General Partner, but may not be in the best interest of other Limited Partners. This could (i) prevent non-tendering Limited Partners from taking action they desire but that IPT opposes and (ii) enable IPT to take action desired by IPT but opposed by non-tendering Limited Partners. Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, Limited Partners holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters including: removal of the General Partner and in certain circumstances election of a new or successor general partner; dissolution of the Partnership; and most types of amendments to the Limited Partnership Agreement.

The Managing General Partner also would have a conflict of interest (i) as a result of the fact that a sale or liquidation of the Partnership's assets would result in a decrease or elimination of the fees paid to the Managing General Partner and/or its affiliates and (ii) as a consequence of the Purchaser's ownership of Units, because the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) may have incentives to seek to maximize the value of its ownership of Units, which in turn may result in a conflict for the Managing General Partner in attempting to reconcile the interests of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) with the interests of the other Limited Partners. In addition, the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) is making the Offer with a view to making a profit. Accordingly, there is a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) to purchase Units at a low price and the desire of the Limited Partners to sell their Units at a high price. The Managing General Partner has indicated in the Schedule 14D-9 that it is remaining neutral and making no recommendation as to whether Limited Partners should tender their Units pursuant to the Offer. LIMITED PARTNERS ARE URGED TO READ THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9 AND THE RELATED MATERIALS CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER THEIR UNITS. Voting by the Purchaser. The Limited Partnership Agreement provides that the Managing General Partner has absolute discretion as to whether to admit an assignee of Units to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner. The Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) will seek to be admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner upon consummation of the Offer and, when admitted, will have the right to vote each Unit purchased pursuant to the Offer. Even if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) is not admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner, however, the Purchaser nonetheless will have the right to vote each Unit purchased in the Offer pursuant to the irrevocable appointment by tendering Limited Partners of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) and its managers and designees as proxies with respect to the Units tendered by such Limited Partners and accepted for payment by the Purchaser. See Section 3. As a result, if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) is successful in acquiring a significant number of Units pursuant to the Offer, the Purchaser will have the right to vote those Units and thereby significantly influence all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. In general, IPLP and the Purchaser (which are affiliates of the Managing General Partner) will vote the Units owned by them in whatever manner they deem to be in IPT's best interests, which, because of their relationship with the Managing General Partner, also may be in the best interest of the Managing General Partner, but may not be in the best interest of other Limited Partners. This could (i) prevent non-tendering Limited Partners from taking action they desire but that IPT opposes and (ii) enable IPT to take action desired by IPT but opposed by non-tendering Limited Partners. Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, Limited Partners holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters including: removal of the General Partner and in certain circumstances election of a new or successor general partner; dissolution of the Partnership; and most types of amendments to the Limited Partnership Agreement.

See Section 3. As a result, if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is successful in acquiring a significant number of Class B Units pursuant to the OfferOffer (or otherwise), IPT (which controls the Purchaser General Partner, IPLP and the Purchaser) will have the right be able to vote those Units and thereby significantly influence the outcome of all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Because IPT already owns (through IPLP) approximately 19% of the outstanding Class B Units, however, it will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership regardless of the number of Class B Units the Purchaser acquires pursuant to the Offer. In general, IPLP and the Purchaser (which are affiliates of the General Partner) will vote the Class B Units owned by them in whatever manner they deem to be in IPT's best interests, which, because of their relationship with the General Partner, also may be in the best interest of the General Partner, but may not be in the best interest of other Limited Partners. This could (i) prevent non-tendering Limited Partners from taking action they desire but that IPT opposes and (ii) enable IPT to take action desired by IPT but opposed by non-tendering Limited Partners. Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, Limited Partners holding a majority of the Class B Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters matters, including: removal of the General Partner and in certain circumstances election of a new or successor general partner; dissolution of the Partnership; the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership; and most types of amendments to the Limited Partnership Agreement.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. The General Partner and its affiliates have conflicts of interest with respect to the Offer as set forth below. Conflicts of Interest with Respect to the Offer. The General Partner has conflicts of interest with respect to the Offer, including conflicts resulting from its affiliation with IPT and the Purchaser. The General Partner also would have a conflict of interest (i) as a result of the fact that a sale or liquidation of the Partnership's assets would result in a decrease or elimination of the fees paid to the General Partner and/or its affiliates and (ii) as a consequence of the Purchaser's ownership of Class A Units, because the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) may have incentives to seek to maximize the value of its ownership of Class A Units, which in turn may result in a conflict for the General Partner in attempting to reconcile the interests of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) with the interests of the other Limited Partners. In addition, the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is making the Offer with a view to making a profit. Accordingly, there is a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) to purchase Class A Units at a low price and the desire of the Limited Partners to sell their Class A Units at a high price. The General Partner has indicated in the Schedule 14D-9 that it is remaining neutral and making no recommendation as to whether Limited Partners should tender their Class A Units pursuant to the Offer. LIMITED PARTNERS ARE URGED TO READ THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9 AND THE RELATED MATERIALS CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER THEIR CLASS A UNITS. Voting by the Purchaser. The Limited Partnership Agreement provides that the General Partner has absolute discretion as to whether to admit an assignee of Class A Units to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner. The Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) will seek to be admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner upon consummation of the Offer and, when if admitted, will have the right to vote each Class A Unit purchased pursuant to the Offer. Even if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is not admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner, however, the Purchaser nonetheless will have the right to vote each Class A Unit purchased in the Offer pursuant to the irrevocable appointment by tendering Limited Partners of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) and its managers and designees as proxies with respect to the Class A Units tendered by such Limited Partners and accepted for payment by the Purchaser. See Section 3. As a result, if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is successful in acquiring a significant number of Class A Units pursuant to the OfferOffer (or otherwise), the Purchaser will have the right to vote those Class A Units and thereby IPT (which controls the General Partner, IPLP and the Purchaser) will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Because IPT already owns (through IPLP) approximately 26% of the outstanding Class A Units, however, it will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership regardless of the number of Class A Units the Purchaser acquires pursuant to the Offer. In general, IPLP and the Purchaser (which are affiliates of the General Partner) will vote the Class A Units owned by them in whatever manner they deem to be in IPT's best interests, which, because of their relationship with the General Partner, also may be in the best interest of the General Partner, but may not be in the best interest of other Limited Partners. This could (i) prevent non-tendering nontendering Limited Partners from taking action they desire but that IPT opposes and (ii) enable IPT to take action desired by IPT but opposed by non-tendering Limited Partners. Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, Limited Partners holding a majority of the Class A Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters matters, including: removal of the General Partner and in certain circumstances election of a new or successor general partner; dissolution of the Partnership; the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership; and most types of amendments to the Limited Partnership Agreement.

Even if the Purchaser acquires a lesser number of Units pursuant to the Offer, however, because IPT already owns (through IPLP) approximately 25.1% of the Purchaser outstanding Units it will have the right be able to vote those Units and thereby significantly influence the outcome of all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership.

The General Partner also would have a conflict of interest (i) as a result of the fact that a sale or liquidation of the Partnership's assets would result in a decrease or elimination of the fees paid to the General Partner and/or its affiliates and (ii) as a consequence of the Purchaser's ownership of Units, because the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) may have incentives to seek to maximize the value of its ownership of Units, which in turn may result in a conflict for the General Partner in attempting to reconcile the interests of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) with the interests of the other Limited Partners. In addition, the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is making the Offer with a view to making a profit. Accordingly, there is a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) to purchase Units at a low price and the desire of the Limited Partners to sell their Units at a high price. The General Partner has indicated in the Schedule 14D-9 that it is remaining neutral and making no recommendation as to whether Limited Partners should tender their Units pursuant to the Offer. LIMITED PARTNERS ARE URGED TO READ THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9 AND THE RELATED MATERIALS CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER THEIR UNITS.

See Section 3. As a result, if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is successful in acquiring a significant number of Units pursuant to the Offer, the Purchaser will have the right to vote those Units and thereby significantly influence all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. In generalBecause IPT already owns (through IPLP) approximately 25% of the outstanding Units, IPLP and however, it will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership regardless of the number of Units the Purchaser (which are affiliates of acquires pursuant to the General Partner) will vote the Units owned by them in whatever manner they deem to be in IPT's best interests, which, because of their relationship with the General Partner, also may be in the best interest of the General Partner, but may not be in the best interest of other Limited PartnersOffer. This could (i) prevent non-tendering Limited Partners from taking action they desire but that IPT opposes and (ii) enable IPT to take action desired by IPT but opposed by non-tendering Limited Partners. Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, Limited Partners holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters matters, including: removal of the General Partner a general partner and in certain circumstances election of a new or successor general partnerpartners; dissolution of the Partnership; the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership; and most types of amendments to the Limited Partnership Agreement. When voting on these matters, IPLP and the Purchaser (which are affiliates of the General Partner) will vote the Units owned by them in whatever manner they deem to be in IPT's best interests, which, because of their relationship with the General Partner, also may be in the interest of the General Partner, but may not be in the interest of other Limited Partners.

Even if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is not admitted to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner, however, the Purchaser nonetheless will have the right to vote each Unit purchased in the Offer pursuant to the irrevocable appointment by tendering Limited Partners of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) and its managers and designees as proxies with respect to the Units tendered by such Limited Partners and accepted for payment by the Purchaser. See Section 3. As a result, if the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is successful in acquiring a significant number of Units pursuant to the Offer, the Purchaser will have the right to vote those Units and thereby significantly influence all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. In general, IPLP and the Purchaser (which are affiliates of the General Partner) will vote the Units owned by them in whatever manner they deem to be in IPT's best interests, which, because of their relationship with the General Partner, also may be in the best interest of the General Partner, but may not be in the best interest of other Limited Partners. This could (i) prevent non-tendering Limited Partners from taking action they desire but that IPT opposes and (ii) enable IPT to take action desired by IPT but opposed by non-tendering Limited Partners. Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, Limited Partners holding a majority of the Units are entitled to take action with respect to a variety of matters matters, including: removal of the General Partner or an individual general partner and in certain circumstances election of a new or successor general partnerpartners; dissolution of the Partnership; the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership; and most types of amendments to the Limited Partnership Agreement. See Section 7.

Conflicts of Interest with Respect to the Offer. The Managing General Partner has conflicts of interest with respect to the Offer, including conflicts resulting from its affiliation with IPT and the Purchaser. The Managing General Partner also would have a conflict of interest (i) as a result of the fact that a sale or liquidation of the Partnership's assets would result in a decrease or elimination of the fees paid to the Managing General Partner and/or its affiliates and (ii) as a consequence of the Purchaser's ownership of Units, because the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) may have incentives to seek to maximize the value of its ownership of Units, which in turn may result in a conflict for the Managing General Partner in attempting to reconcile the interests of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) with the interests of the other Limited Partners. In addition, the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) is making the Offer with a view to making a profit. Accordingly, there is a conflict between the desire of the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the Managing General Partner) to purchase Units at a low price and the desire of the Limited Partners to sell their Units at a high price. The Managing General Partner has indicated in the Schedule 14D-9 that it is remaining neutral and making no recommendation as to whether Limited Partners should tender their Units pursuant to the Offer. LIMITED PARTNERS ARE URGED TO READ THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9 AND THE RELATED MATERIALS CAREFULLY AND IN THEIR ENTIRETY BEFORE DECIDING WHETHER TO TENDER THEIR UNITS.

See Section 3. As a result, if If the Purchaser (which is an affiliate of the General Partner) is successful in acquiring more than 15,845 Units pursuant to the Offer (or otherwise), IPT (which controls the General Partner, IPLP and the Purchaser) will own in excess of 50% of the total outstanding Units and, as a significant result, will be able to control the outcome of almost all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership. Even if the Purchaser acquires a lesser number of Units pursuant to the Offer, however, because IPT already owns (through IPLP) approximately 28.9% of the Purchaser outstanding Units it will have the right be able to vote those Units and thereby significantly influence the outcome of almost all voting decisions with respect to the Partnership.
