included approximately $1.9 million of cash and the assumption of mortgage
financing of $18.5 million. The sales price of $142.00 per square foot
represents a capitalization rate of 8.3%. The Company recorded a loss on the
sale of approximately $11.4 million. 

In August 2009, we entered into a sale and purchase agreement to sell a 49.5%
interest in Green 485 JV LLC, or the Joint Venture, the owner of 485 Lexington
Avenue, to a partnership comprised of Optibase Ltd. (Nasdaq: OBAS) and Gilmor
USA LLC, or the Purchasers. The transaction results in an implied asset
valuation of approximately $504.2 million for the property. Upon closing, the
Purchasers will pay us approximately $20.8 million for a 49.5% interest in the
Joint Venture and will also make a $20.0 million non-recourse loan to us
maturing in 2021 which will be secured by a pledge by us of an additional 49.5%
interest in the Joint Venture, with our retaining an unencumbered 1% interest in
the Joint Venture. In addition, the Purchasers will also acquire an option based
in general on fair market value, exercisable generally until 2022 subject to
certain limitations, to purchase our 49.5% pledged ownership interests in the
Joint Venture, subject to certain limitations. Prior to closing, we will also
make a $12.2 million, 9.0% loan due in 2013, to the Joint Venture. The existing
$450.0 million mortgage will remain an obligation of the Joint Venture. The
transaction is subject to certain conditions, including the existing lender's
approval of the transfer of ownership in Green 485 JV LLC and such lender's
approval of substitute guarantors under the loan. There is no assurance that the
conditions precedent contemplated in the sale-purchase agreement will be
fulfilled or that the transaction will be consummated at such time or at all.

with a new lender. This $145.0 million financing, provided at a 7.5% fixed

mortgage. In connection with this financing, the Company incurred a defeasance

the third quarter. 

In September 2009, the Company, along with its joint venture partner Prudential
