ACQUISITION OF ASSETS Regency Realty Corporation, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together the "Company") acquired four shopping centers (the "Acquisition Properties") during the months of May, July, and August, 1996. The combined purchase price of these acquisitions, as provided below, exceeds 10% of the Company's total assets. The acquisitions were made pursuant to separate purchase agreements, the sellers of which are unrelated to the Company. All of the properties currently operate as neighborhood or community retail shopping centers, and will continue as such. The purchase price of each shopping center was funded from the Company's revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Realty Advisors Funding, Inc. The factors considered by the Company in determining the price to be paid for the shopping center included historical and expected cash flow, nature of the tenancies and terms of the leases in place, occupancy rates, opportunities for alternative and new tenancies, current operating costs, physical condition and location, and the anticipated impact on the Company's financial results. The Company also took into consideration capitalization rates at which it believes other shopping centers have recently sold. No separate independent appraisals were obtained for the Acquisition Properties. The following summarizes the Acquisition Properties: Property Acquisition Acquisition Occupancy at Name Costs Date GLA City/State Acquisition ---- ----- ---- --- ---------- ----------- Welleby Plaza $7,251,320 5-31-96 109,949 Sunrise, FL 95.2% Union Square $7,189,358 7-16-96 97,191 Monroe, NC 94.7% City View $5,569,614 7-16-96 77,550 Charlotte, NC 98.5% Palm Harbor $12,967,307 8-1-96 159,369 Palm Coast, FL 100.0% ----------- ------- Total $32,977,599 440,059 =========== ======= ITEM 7.
