Item 8.01 Other Events.
On July 25, 2008, we entered into a definitive purchase agreement with unrelated third parties, to acquire, subject to customary closing conditions, Avion III and IV, located at 14550 and 14560 Avion Parkway, in Chantilly, Virginia. The contract purchase price for Avion III and IV is $41,700,000 exclusive of transaction costs, financing fees and working capital reserves. We anticipate that the acquisition will be funded from the proceeds of our initial public offering. Each property consists of a three-story office building, with surface parking lots, completed in 2003. Avion III has 71,507 rentable square feet and is 100% leased to Lockheed Martin Corporation, a leading supplier of aerospace and defense products and services. Avion IV has 71,504 rentable square feet and is 100% leased to the U.S. General Services Administration. Both buildings have been improved to meet Sensitive Compartmentalized Information Facilities standards that include enhanced access control systems which meet specific security requirements for handling federal classified information. While we anticipate this acquisition will close during the third quarter of 2008, this agreement is subject to a number of contingencies and there can be no assurances that this acquisition will occur.
