Each of the Borrowers is a wholly-owned subsidiary of GTJ Realty, L.P. (the “UPREIT”). The Loans bear interest at a rate of 3.20% and mature on April 30, 2018. The Loans were evidenced by (i) a promissory note, executed simultaneously therewith, by Fairview and Fieldcrest payable to the order of Genworth Life Insurance Company in the amount of $14,400,000 (the “New York Note”) and (ii) a promissory note, executed simultaneously therewith, by 300 American and 500 American in the amount of $15,100,000 (the “New Jersey Note” and together with the New York Note, hereinafter referred to as the “Notes”).
Pursuant to the New York Note, Fairview and Fieldcrest will make monthly payments of interest only in the amount of $38,400.00 from June 1, 2013 to and including May 1, 2014.

The Loan Agreements contain customary representations and warranties, covenants and events of default.
Certain obligations under the Loan Agreements are guaranteed by the UPREIT, pursuant to the terms of certain Guaranties entered into by the UPREIT and Lender.
