Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On March 28, 2007, CBRERT Coventry, Limited, an indirect subsidiary of CB Richard Ellis Realty Trust (the “Company”), entered into a definitive purchase agreement with Henderson Global Investors Real Estate (No. 2) L.P. (acting by its general partner Henderson Global Investors Property (No. 2) Limited), an unrelated third party, to acquire, subject to customary closing conditions, 602 Central Boulevard located in Coventry, England, United Kingdom. The Company is filing this Form 8-K in reference to this agreement pursuant to the rules prescribed by Form 8-K. The contract purchase price for 602 Central Boulevard is £11,200,000 ($21,840,000 assuming an exchange rate of $1.95/£1.00) exclusive of transaction costs, financing fees and working capital reserves. The Company anticipates that the acquisition will be funded from the proceeds of its initial public offering and mortgage financings that the Company intends to obtain in connection with the acquisition. The property consists of a three-story office building and a surface parking lot completed in 2002. The office building is 100% leased to Capita Business Systems, part of the Capita Group, the UK’s largest business process outsourcing firm. While the Company anticipates this acquisition will close during the second quarter of 2007, this agreement is subject to a number of contingencies and there can be no assurances that this acquisition will transpire. A copy of the purchase agreement is attached to this Form 8-K and is herein incorporated by reference.
