At our annual meeting of stockholders, which commenced on June 20, 2007 and reconvened on July 27, 2007, our stockholders were asked to vote on certain amendments to sections 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 12.1 of our Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”), which amendments (the “Amendments”) were sought by the Pennsylvania Securities Commission as a condition to our authorization to sell shares of our common stock under our current offering to persons in Pennsylvania. As of July 27, 2007, although we had received proxies from 61.6 % of our stockholders in favor of the Amendments (and only 5.6 % opposed to the Amendments), the Amendments have not received the required two-thirds vote of our stockholders necessary for adoption.
However, on July 24, 2007, the Pennsylvania Securities Commission granted us an additional period through July 31, 2008 to obtain stockholder approval of the Amendments. As a condition of the Pennsylvania Securities Commission’s extension, our Board of Directors has agreed, in connection with any matter that would be subject to sections 10.2, 10.3 and 12.1 of the Articles, to consider and approve such matters as if the applicable Amendments had been adopted. Our Board of Directors is not able to make such an agreement in connection with section 10.1 of the Articles.
As previously described in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and as set forth in our proxy for our 2007 annual meeting of stockholders, the Amendments are as follows:
1. The amendment to section 10.1 of the Articles would reduce the requisite vote needed to amend the Articles from two-thirds to a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock.
2. The amendments to sections 10.2 and 10.3 of the Articles would add a requirement that we obtain the approval of our stockholders in connection with certain mergers, reorganizations or sales of material portions of our assets, except in very limited circumstances that would not require a stockholder vote, that would not otherwise have been required to be approved by our stockholders in accordance with Maryland law, the jurisdiction under which we are organized.
3. The amendment to section 12.1 of the Articles would remove a reference to Maryland law in order to avoid any implication that we may rely upon the broad scope of Maryland law in order to override certain governance guidelines with which we, and all other unlisted REITs, already comply.
In the event that the Amendments are not adopted by our stockholders by July 31, 2008, we have agreed with the Pennsylvania Securities Commission to immediately cease making offers and sales of our common stock to Pennsylvania residents and have agreed to extend a written offer of rescission to all Pennsylvania residents that have purchased shares of our common stock in our current offering. As of March 31, 2007, we have received subscriptions totaling approximately $ 28.0 million from Pennsylvania residents in our current offering.

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
