Item 8.01.                      Other Events.

On December 14, 2010, we entered into a Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2010 (the "Purchase Agreement"), between Barclays Capital, Inc. (the “Underwriter”), on the one hand, and Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P., Lepercq Corporate Income Fund II L.P., Net 3 Acquisition L.P. and us, on the other.  Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to sell to the Underwriter 10,000,000 of our shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.0001 per share, classified as common stock (the “Common Shares”), and we granted the Underwriter an option to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Common Shares, to cover over-allotments, at the same price less any dividends or distributions declared and payable on the shares initially purchased by the Underwriter but not payable on the option shares.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by us.  It also provides for customary indemnification by each of the Underwriter and us for certain losses or damages arising out of or in connection with the sale of the Common Shares.

The offering is being made pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-157858) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and effective as of September 4, 2009, a preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Common Shares dated December 14, 2010, and a final prospectus supplement relating to the Common Shares dated December 15, 2010.

A copy of the Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement.

On December 14 and 15, 2010, we issued press releases relating to the offering of the Common Shares.  Copies of the press releases are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2.
