Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 24, 2010, we amended and restated our share repurchase plan (the "Amended SRP"). The Amended SRP will become effective on January 1, 2011. The Amended SRP provides that we will fund a maximum of $10 million of share repurchase requests per quarter, subject to available funding. Funding for the share repurchase plan each quarter will come exclusively from and will be limited to the sale of shares under our distribution reinvestment plan during such quarter. Additionally, the Amended SRP provides that shares previously sold or transferred for value by a stockholder will not be eligible for repurchase under the share repurchase plan.
The foregoing description of the amendments to our share repurchase plan reflected in the Amended SRP is subject to and qualified in its entirety by the Amended SRP, attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On November 24, 2010, we mailed a letter to our stockholders regarding the Amended SRP. The full text of the letter is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
