Payment for Notes purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer was made on Thursday, September 3, 2009 (the “Payment Date”). The amount of Notes accepted for purchase from each tendering note holder was pro rated at 72.2% due to the receipt of valid tenders in excess of the Maximum Tender Offer.

The aggregate consideration paid by the Operating Partnership for the Notes accepted for payment including accrued and unpaid interest was $100,432,739.19 which was funded under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and from available cash on hand.
