Re: DiVall Income Properties 3, L.P.
Dear Limited Partner:
The Partnership has one remaining property ... a former Denny's in Colorado
Springs. We haven't identified a buyer offering a fair price. It is unlikely
that anything can happen in 2002. We will obviously continue to aggressively
market this final property. We want to liquidate this Partnership.
We continue to believe the sale of three properties earlier in the year was
appropriate in light of a "window of opportunity" in pricing due to low interest
rates and before the economy created more uncertainty.
A few things you should be aware of...
. We have reduced the operating costs dramatically for this Partnership
by reducing our fees 75% until the wind-up process can commence.
. Unlike other public partnerships that must continue their existence
even after all assets have been sold (because of continuing contingent
liabilities after sale and for future General Partner indemnification); we
have always been successful in completely ending a Partnership (no more
audits, tax returns, K-1s, etc) because of "wind-up insurance".
Unfortunately, we have been unable to find anyone to underwrite such
coverage for DiVall 3 when the time comes. This will necessitate some
creativity in extinguishing the General Partner liability exposure to
facilitate distribution of the Indemnification Fund.
. Although there are no longer operating activities with DiVall 3
properties, we will not experience audit savings. The demise of Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxxx has resulted in the retention of another firm, Deloitte Touche. In
the absence of the prospect for continuing services to this entity in
future years, there is no incentive to absorb costs during the first year
of an engagement anticipating amortizing a recovery over future years. This
is a case where the Department of Justice and SEC have created hardship

destroying Xxxxxxxx.
