NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)


1.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Overview

Grubb & Ellis Company (“the Company” or “Grubb & Ellis”), a Delaware corporation founded 50 years ago in Northern California, is a commercial real estate services and investment management firm. On December 7, 2007, the Company effected a stock merger (the “Merger”) with NNN Realty Advisors, Inc. (“NNN”), a real estate asset management company and sponsor of public non-traded real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), as well as a sponsor of tax deferred tenant-in-common (“TIC”) 1031 property exchanges and other investment programs. Upon the closing of the Merger, a change of control occurred. The former stockholders of NNN acquired approximately 60% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock.

The Company offers property owners, corporate occupants and program investors comprehensive integrated real estate solutions, including transactions, management, consulting and investment advisory services supported by market research and local market expertise.

In certain instances throughout these Financial Statements phrases such as “legacy Grubb & Ellis” or similar descriptions are used to reference, when appropriate, Grubb & Ellis prior to the Merger. Similarly, in certain instances throughout these Financial Statements the term NNN, “legacy NNN”, or similar phrases are used to reference, when appropriate, NNN Realty Advisors, Inc. prior to the Merger.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned controlled subsidiaries’, variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary, and partnerships/limited liability companies (“LLCs”) in which the Company is the managing member or general partner and the other partners/members lack substantive rights (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Company”), and are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented have been included in these financial statements and are of a normal and recurring nature.

The Company consolidates entities that are VIEs when the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE. For entities in which (i) the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary, (ii) the Company’s ownership is 50.0% or less and (iii) the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, the Company uses the equity accounting method (i.e. at cost, increased or decreased by the Company’s share of earnings or losses, plus contributions less distributions). The Company also uses the equity method of accounting for jointly-controlled tenant-in-common interests. As reconsideration events occur, the Company will reconsider its determination of whether an entity is a VIE and who the primary beneficiary is to determine if there is a change in the original determinations and will report such changes on a quarterly basis.

As more fully discussed in Note 12, the Company has entered into a Third Amendment to its Credit Facility that requires the Company to comply with the Approved Budget that has been agreed to by the Company and the lenders, subject to agreed upon variances. The Company is also required under the Third Amendment to effect the Recapitalization plan on or before September 30, 2009 and in connection therewith to effect a Partial Prepayment on or before September 30, 2009. Among other things, in the event the Company does not complete the recapitalization plan and/or make the Partial Prepayment, the Credit Facility will terminate on January 15, 2010. In light of the current state of the financial markets and economic

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

environment, there is risk that the Company will be unable to meet the terms of the Credit Facility which would result in the entire balance of the debt becoming due and payable. If the Credit Facility were to become due and payable on the alternative due date of January 15, 2010, there can be no assurances that the Company will have access to alternative funding sources, or if such sources are available to the Company, that they will be on favorable terms and conditions to the Company, which at that time could create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern after January 15, 2010.

Use of Estimates

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (including disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities) as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Credit Facility

Weak economic conditions could impact the Company’s ability to remain in compliance with the debt covenants contained within its Credit Facility described in Note 12 below. If revenues are less than the Company has projected, the Company will be required to take further actions within its control to reduce costs so as to allow the Company to remain in compliance with the financial covenants in the Credit Facility. In the event the Company is required to amend the Credit Facility in order to remain in compliance with the financial covenants set forth therein, there can be no assurances that it will be able to do so.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year and prior period amounts in order to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on reported net income (loss).

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash and loan impound reserve accounts for property taxes, insurance, capital improvements, and tenant improvements related to consolidated properties.

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value instruments. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (the “FSP”). The FSP amends SFAS No. 157 to delay the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (that is, at least annually). There was no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008 as it relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. For items within its scope, the FSP deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 as it relates to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities in the first quarter of 2009, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-tiered fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used in fair value calculations. Level 1 inputs are the highest priority and are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs reflect other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

either observable directly or through corroboration with observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, due to little or no market activity for the asset or liability, such as internally-developed valuation models.

The following table presents changes in financial and nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis for the three months ended March 31, 2009:


			Quoted Prices in
			Active Markets		Significant Other		Significant
			for Identical		Observable		Unobservable		Total
			Assets		Inputs		Inputs		Impairment
Assets (in thousands)	March 31, 2009		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Losses

Investments in marketable equity securities	$	1,698	$	1,698	$	—	$	—	$	—
Properties held for sale	$	161,723	$	—	$	—	$	161,723	$	(6,800	)
Investments in unconsolidated entities	$	4,916	$	—	$	—	$	4,916	$	(5,222	)

Noncontrolling Interests

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — An Amendment of ARB No. 51, (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 requires that noncontrolling interests be presented as a component of consolidated stockholders’ equity, eliminates minority interest accounting such that the amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests will be presented as part of consolidated net income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and not as a separate component of income and expense, and requires that upon any changes in ownership that result in the loss of control of the subsidiary, the noncontrolling interest be re-measured at fair value with the resultant gain or loss recorded in net income. SFAS No. 160 became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted SFAS No. 160 on a prospective basis on January 1, 2009, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements which were applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 had an impact on the presentation and disclosure of noncontrolling (minority) interests in the consolidated financial statements. As a result of the retrospective presentation and disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 160, the Company is required to reflect the change in presentation and disclosure for all periods presented. Principal effect on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 related to the adoption of SFAS No. 160 was the change in presentation of the mezzanine section of the minority interest to redeemable noncontrolling interest as reported herein. Additionally, the adoption of SFAS No. 160 had the effect of reclassifying (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interest in the consolidated statements of operations from minority interest to separate line items. SFAS No. 160 also requires that net income (loss) be adjusted to include the net (income) loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest, and a new line item for net income (loss) attributable to controlling interest be presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

A noncontrolling interest relates to the interest in the consolidated entities that are not wholly-owned by the Company. As a result of adopting FASB Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — An Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, or SFAS No. 160, on

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued revised SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, (“SFAS No. 141R”). SFAS No. 141R will change the accounting for business combinations and will require an acquiring entity to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141R will change the accounting treatment and disclosure for certain specific items in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted SFAS No. 141(R) on a prospective basis on January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) will materially affect the accounting for any future business combinations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial reporting of derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 achieves these improvements by requiring disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format. It also provides more information about an entity’s liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related. Finally, it requires cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users to locate important information about derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 became effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company adopted SFAS No. 161 in the first quarter of 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets, (“FSP SFAS 142-3”). FSP SFAS 142-3 is intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of recognized intangible assets under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, (“SFAS No. 142”), and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the assets under SFAS No. 141R. FSP SFAS 142-3 amends the factors an entity should consider in developing renewal or extension assumptions in determining the useful life of recognized intangible assets. In addition to the required disclosures under SFAS No. 142, FSP SFAS 142-3 requires disclosure of the entity’s accounting policy regarding costs incurred to renew or extend the term of recognized intangible assets, the weighted average period to the next renewal or extension, and the total amount of capitalized costs incurred to renew or extend the term of recognized intangible assets.

years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted FSP SFAS 142-3 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of FSP SFAS 142-3 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities (“FSP EITF 03-6-1”), which addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method described in SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. FSP EITF 03-6-1, which will apply to the Company because it grants instruments to employees in share-based payment transactions that meet the definition of participating securities, is effective retrospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.


2.	MARKETABLE SECURITIES

During the period ended March 31, 2008, the Company believed that a decline in the value of marketable equity securities was other than temporary and recognized $90,000 in losses.

Notes Receivable From Related Party

In December 2007, the Company advanced $10.0 million to Grubb & Ellis Apartment REIT, Inc. (“Apartment REIT”) on an unsecured basis.

The balance owed to the Company as of December 31, 2007 which consisted of $7.6 million in principal was repaid in full in the first quarter of 2008.

In June 2008, the Company advanced $3.7 million to Apartment REIT on an unsecured basis. The unsecured note originally had an original maturity date of December 27, 2008 and bore interest at a fixed rate of 4.95% per annum. On November 10, 2008, the Company extended the maturity date to May 10, 2009 and adjusted the interest rate to a fixed rate of 5.26% per annum. The note required monthly interest-only payments beginning on August 1, 2008 and provided for a default interest rate in an event of default equal to 2.00% per annum in excess of the stated interest rate. Effective May 10, 2009 the Company entered into a second extension agreement with Apartment REIT, whereby extending the maturity date to November 10, 2009.

4.	VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

The determination of the appropriate accounting method with respect to the Company’s variable interest entities (“VIEs”), including joint ventures, is based on FASB Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 46(R) (“FIN 46(R)”). The Company consolidates any VIE for which it is the primary beneficiary.

The Company determines if an entity is a VIE under FIN No. 46(R) based on several factors, including whether the entity’s total equity investment at risk upon inception is sufficient to finance the entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company makes judgments regarding the sufficiency of the equity at risk based first on a qualitative analysis, then a quantitative analysis, if necessary. In a quantitative analysis, the Company incorporates various estimates, including estimated future cash flows, asset hold periods and discount rates, as well as estimates of the probabilities of various scenarios occurring. If the entity is a VIE, the Company then determines whether to consolidate the entity as the primary beneficiary. The Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the entity if the Company will absorb a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receive a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns or both.

A change in the judgments, assumptions and estimates outlined above could result in consolidating an entity that is not currently consolidated or accounting for an investment on the equity method that is currently consolidated, the effects of which could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had investments in seven LLCs that are VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. These seven LLCs hold interests in the Company’s TIC investments. The carrying value of the assets and liabilities for these consolidated VIEs as of March 31, 2009 were $2.5 million and $293,000, respectively. The carrying value of the assets and liabilities for these consolidated VIEs as of December 31, 2008 was $3.7 million and $309,000, respectively. In addition, these consolidated VIEs are joint and severally liable on the non-recourse mortgage debt related to the interests in the Company’s TIC investments totalling $277.6 million and $277.8 million as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. This mortgage debt is not consolidated as the LLCs account for the interests in the Company’s TIC investments under the equity method and the non recourse mortgage debt does not meet the criteria under SFAS No. 140 for recognizing the share of the debt assumed by the other TIC interest holders for consolidation. The Company does consider the third party TIC holders ability and intent to repay their share of the joint and several liability in evaluating the recovery.

If the interest in the entity is determined to not be a VIE under FIN No. 46(R), then the entity is evaluated for consolidation under the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position No. 78-9, Accounting for Investments in Real Estate Ventures, (“SOP 78-9”), as amended by Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 04-5, Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights (“EITF 04-5”).

As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 the Company had a number of entities that were determined to be VIEs, that did not meet the consolidation requirements of FIN No. 46(R). The unconsolidated VIEs are accounted for under the equity method. The aggregate investment carrying value of the unconsolidated VIEs was $2.3 million and $5.0 million as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, and was classified under Investments in Unconsolidated Entities in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investments in unconsolidated VIEs is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding commitments. Future funding commitments as of March 31, 2009 for the unconsolidated VIEs totalled $169,000. In addition, as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, these unconsolidated VIEs are joint and severally liable on non-recourse mortgage debt totalling $390.2 million and $385.3 million, respectively. Although the mortgage debt is non-recourse to the VIE that holds the TIC interest, the Company has full recourse guarantees on a portion of such mortgage debt totalling $3.5 million as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. This mortgage debt is not consolidated as the LLCs account for the interests in the Company’s TIC investments under the equity method and the non recourse mortgage debt does not meet the criteria under SFAS No. 140 for recognizing the share of the debt assumed by the other TIC interest holders for consolidation. The Company does consider the third party TIC holders ability and intent to repay their share of the joint and several liability in evaluating the recovery. In evaluating the recovery of the TIC investment the Company evaluated the likelihood that the lender would foreclose on the VIEs interest in the TIC to satisfy the obligation. See Note 5 — Investments in Unconsolidated Entities for additional information.


5.	INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES

As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company held investments in five joint ventures totaling $1.6 million and $3.8 million, which represent a range of 5.0% to 10.0% ownership interest in each property. In addition, pursuant to FIN No. 46(R), the Company has consolidated seven LLCs with investments in unconsolidated entities totaling $2.5 million and $3.7 million as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. The remaining amounts within investments in unconsolidated entities are related to various LLCs, which represent ownership interests of less than 1.0%.

At December 31, 2007, Legacy Grubb & Ellis owned approximately 5.9 million shares of common stock of Grubb & Ellis Realty Advisors, Inc. (“GERA”), which was a publicly traded special purpose acquisition

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

company, which represented approximately 19% of the outstanding common stock. Legacy Grubb & Ellis also owned approximately 4.6 million GERA warrants which were exercisable into additional GERA common stock, subject to certain conditions. As part of the Merger, the Company recorded each of these investments at fair value on December 7, 2007, the date they were acquired, at a total investment of approximately $4.5 million.

All of the officers of GERA were also officers or directors of legacy Grubb & Ellis, although such persons did not receive any compensation from GERA in their capacity as officers of GERA. Due to the Company’s ownership position and influence over the operating and financial decisions of GERA, the Company’s investment in GERA was accounted for within the Company’s consolidated financial statements under the equity method of accounting. The Company’s combined carrying value of these GERA investments as of December 31, 2007, totaled approximately $4.1 million, net of an unrealized loss, and was included in investments in unconsolidated entities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of that date.

On February 28, 2008, a special meeting of the stockholders of GERA was held to vote on, among other things, a proposed transaction with the Company. GERA failed to obtain the requisite consents of its stockholders to approve the proposed business transaction and at a subsequent special meeting of the stockholders of GERA held on April 14, 2008, the stockholders of GERA approved the dissolution and plan of liquidation of GERA. The Company did not receive any funds or other assets as a result of GERA’s dissolution and liquidation.

As a consequence, the Company wrote off its investment in GERA and other advances to that entity in the first quarter of 2008 and recognized a loss of approximately $5.8 million which is recorded in equity in losses on the consolidated statement of operations and is comprised of $4.5 million related to stock and warrant purchases and $1.3 million related to operating advances and third party costs, which included an unrealized loss previously reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss.


6.	BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND GOODWILL

Merger of Grubb & Ellis Company with NNN

On December 7, 2007, the Company effected the Merger with NNN, a real estate asset management company and sponsor of TIC Programs as well as a sponsor of two non-traded REITs and other investment programs.

Under the purchase method of accounting, the Merger consideration of $172.2 million was determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock of $6.43 per share on the date the merger closed, applied to the 26,195,655 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding plus the fair value of vested options outstanding of approximately $3.8 million. The fair value of these vested options was calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which incorporated the following assumptions: weighted average exercise price of $7.02 per option, volatility of 105.11%, a 5 year expected life of the awards, risk-free interest rate of 3.51% and no expected dividend yield.

As part of its Merger transition, the Company completed its personnel reorganization plan, and recorded additional severance liabilities totaling approximately $2.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2008, which increased the goodwill recorded from the acquisition.

Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is recorded at its carrying value and is tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if impairment indicators exist at a level of reporting referred to as a reporting unit. The Company recognizes goodwill in accordance with SFAS No. 142 and tests the carrying value for impairment during the fourth quarter of each year. During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company identified the uncertainty surrounding the global economy and the volatility of the Company’s market capitalization as

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

goodwill impairment indicators. The Company’s goodwill impairment analysis resulted in the recognition of an impairment charge of approximately $172.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2008.

No impairment charges were recorded at March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

12.	LINE OF CREDIT

In February 2007, the Company entered into a $25.0 million revolving line of credit with LaSalle Bank N.A. to replace the previous revolving line of credit. This line of credit consisted of $10.0 million for acquisitions and $15.0 million for general corporate purposes and bore interest at prime rate plus 0.50% or three-month LIBOR plus 1.50%, at the Company’s option and matured February 20, 2010. During 2007, the Company paid $100,000 in loan fees relating to the revolving line of credit.

On December 7, 2007, the Company terminated the $25.0 million line of credit with LaSalle Bank N.A. and entered into a $75.0 million Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among the Company, the guarantors named therein, the financial institutions defined therein as lender parties, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as lender and administrative agent (the “Credit Facility”). The Company is restricted to solely use the line of credit for investments, acquisitions, working capital, equity interest repurchase or exchange, and other general corporate purposes. The line bore interest at either the prime rate or LIBOR based rates, as the Company may choose on each of its borrowings, plus an applicable margin based on the Company’s Debt/Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) ratio as defined in the credit agreement.

On August 5, 2008, the Company entered into an amendment (the “First Letter Amendment”) to its Credit Facility. The First Letter Amendment, among other things, provided the Company with an extension from September 30, 2008 to March 31, 2009 to dispose of the three real estate assets that the Company had previously acquired on behalf of GERA. Additionally, the First Letter Amendment also, among other things, modified select debt and financial covenants in order to provide greater flexibility to facilitate the Company’s TIC Programs.

On November 4, 2008, the Company amended (the “Second Letter Amendment”) its Credit Facility revising certain terms of that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 7, 2007, as amended. The effective date of the Second Letter Amendment was September 30, 2008.

The Second Letter Amendment, among other things: (a) modified the amount available under the Credit Facility from $75.0 million to $50.0 million by providing that no advances or letters of credit shall be made available to the Company after September 30, 2008 until such time as borrowings have been reduced to less than $50.0 million; (b) provided that 100% of any net cash proceeds from the sale of certain real estate assets that have to be sold by the Company shall permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments, provided that the Revolving Credit Commitments shall not be reduced to less than $50.0 million by reason of the operation of such asset sales; and (c) modified the interest rate incurred on borrowings by increasing the applicable margins by 100 basis points and by providing for an interest rate floor for any prime rate related borrowings.

Additionally, the Second Letter Amendment, among other things, modified restrictions on guarantees of primary obligations from $125.0 million to $50.0 million, modified select financial covenants to reflect the impact of the current economic environment on the Company’s financial performance, amended certain restrictions on payments by deleting any dividend/share repurchase limitations and modifies the reporting requirements of the Company with respect to real property owned or held.

The Recourse Debt/Core EBITDA Ratio for the quarters ending September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008 were amended from 2.25:1.00 to 4.25:1.00, while the Recourse Debt/Core EBITDA Ratio for the quarters thereafter remained unchanged at 2.25:1.00. The Core EBITDA to be maintained by the Company at all times was reduced from $60.0 million to $30.0 million and the Minimum Liquidity to be maintained by the Company at all times was reduced from $25.0 million to $15.0 million. The Company was not in compliance with certain debt covenants as of March 31, 2009, all of which were effectively cured as of such date by the Third Amendment to the Credit Facility described below. As a consequence of the foregoing, and certain provisions of the Third Amendment, the Credit Facility has been classified as a current liability as of March 31, 2009.

On May 20, 2009, the Company further amended its Credit Facility by entering into the Third Amendment. The Third Amendment, among other things, bifurcates the existing credit facility into two revolving credit facilities, (i) a $38,000,000 Revolving Credit A Facility which is deemed fully funded as of the date of the Third Amendment, and (ii) a $29,289,245 Revolving Credit B Facility, comprised of revolving credit advances in the aggregate of $25,000,000 which are deemed fully funded as of the date of the Third Amendment and letters of credit advances in the aggregate amount of $4,289,245 which are issued and outstanding as of the date of the Third Amendment. The Third Amendment requires the Company to draw down $4,289,245 under the Revolving Credit B Facility on the date of the Third Amendment and deposit such funds in a cash collateral account to cash collateralize outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Facility and eliminates the swingline features of the Credit Facility and the Company’s ability to cause the lenders to issue any additional letters of credit. In addition, the Third Amendment also changes the termination date of the Credit Facility from December 7, 2010 to March 31, 2010 and modifies the interest rate incurred on borrowings by initially increasing the applicable margin by 450 basis points (or to 7.00% on prime rate loans and 8.00% on LIBOR based loans).

The Third Amendment also eliminated specific financial covenants, and in its place, the Company is required to comply with the Approved Budget, that has been agreed to by the Company and the lenders, subject to agreed upon variances. The Company is also required under the Third Amendment to effect the Recapitalization Plan, on or before September 30, 2009 and in connection therewith to effect a prepayment of at least seventy two (72%) of the Revolving Credit A Advances (the “Partial Prepayment”). In the event the Company fails to effect the Recapitalization Plan and in connection therewith to effect a Partial Prepayment on or before September 30, 2009, the (i) lenders will have the right commencing on October 1, 2009, to exercise the Warrants, for nominal consideration, to purchase common stock of the Company equal to 15% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis as of such date, subject to adjustment, (ii) the applicable margin automatically increases to 11% on prime rate loans and increases to 12% on LIBOR based loans, (iii) the Company shall be required to amortize an aggregate of $10 million of the Revolving Credit A Facility in three (3) equal installments on the first business day of each of the last three (3) months of 2009, (iv) the Company is obligated to submit a revised budget by October 1, 2009, (v) the Credit Facility will terminate on January 15, 2010, and (vi) no further advances may be drawn under the Credit Facility.

In the event that Company effects the Recapitalization Plan and in connection therewith effects a partial repayment of the Revolving A Credit Facility on or prior to September 30, 2009, the Warrants automatically will expire and not become exercisable, the applicable margin will automatically be reduced to 3% on prime rate loans and 4% on LIBOR based loans and the Company shall have the right, subject to the requisite approval of the lenders, to seek an extension to extend the term of the Credit Facility to January 5, 2011, provided the Company also pays a fee of .25% of the then outstanding commitments under the Credit Facility.

As a result of the Third Amendment the Company is required to prepay outstanding Revolving Credit A Advances (and to the extent the Revolving Credit A Facility shall be reduced to zero, prepay outstanding Revolving Credit B Advances) in an amount equal to 100% (or, after the Revolving Credit A Advances are

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

reduced by at least the Partial Prepayment amount, in an amount equal to 50%) of Net Cash Proceeds (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from:


	•	assets sales,

	•	conversions of Investments (as defined in the Credit Agreement),

	•	the refund of any taxes or the sale of equity interests by the Company or its subsidiaries,

	•	the issuance of debt securities, or

	•	any other transaction or event occurring outside the ordinary course of business of the Company or its subsidiaries;

provided, however, that (a) the Net Cash Proceeds received from the sale of the certain real property assets shall be used to prepay outstanding Revolving Credit B Advances and to the extent Revolving Credit B Advances shall be reduced to zero, to prepay outstanding Revolving Credit A Advances, (b) the Company shall prepay outstanding Revolving Credit B Advances in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of the Danbury Corporate Center in Danbury Connecticut (the “Danbury Property”) unless the Company is then not in compliance with the Recapitalization Plan in which event Revolving Credit A Advances shall be prepaid first and (c) the Company’s 2008 tax refund was used to prepay outstanding Revolving Credit B Advances upon the closing of the Third Amendment.

The Third Amendment requires the Company to (a) sell the Danbury Property by June 1, 2009, unless such date is extended with the applicable approval of the lenders and (b) use its commercially reasonable best efforts to sell four other commercial properties, including the two other GERA Properties, by September 30, 2009.

The Company’s Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. The outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was $63.0 million as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 and carried a weighted average interest rate of 4.02% and 5.80%, respectively.

In light of the current state of the financial markets and economic environment, there is risk that the Company will be unable to meet the terms of the Credit Facility which would result in the entire balance of the debt becoming due and payable. If the Credit Facility were to become due and payable immediately or on the alternative due date of January 15, 2010, there can be no assurances that the Company will have access to alternative funding sources, or if such sources are available to the Company, that they will be on favorable terms and conditions to the Company. If the Credit Facility were to become immediately due and payable, the recoverability of the Company’s assets may be further impaired which could affect the ability to repay the debt.

During 2008, the Company initiated a plan to sell the properties it classified as real estate held for investment in its financial statements. As of March 31, 2009, the Company has a covenant within its Credit Facility which requires the sale of one of these assets by June 1, 2009. The recent downturn in the global capital markets significantly lessened the probability that the Company would be able to achieve relief from this covenant through amendment or other financial resolutions. Pursuant to SFAS No. 144, the Company assessed the value of the assets. In addition, the Company reviewed the valuation of its other owned properties and real estate investments. This valuation review resulted in the Company recognizing an impairment charge of approximately $6.8 million against the carrying value of the properties and real estate investments as of March 31, 2009, all of which is recorded in discontinued operations.

On October 31, 2008, the Company entered into that certain Agreement for the Purchase and Sale of Real Property and Escrow Instructions to effect the sale of the Corporate Center located at 39 Old Ridgebury Road, Danbury, Connecticut, to an unaffiliated entity for a purchase price of $76.0 million. This agreement was amended and restated in its entirety by that certain Danbury Merger Agreement dated as of January 23, 2009, as amended by the First Amendment to Danbury Merger Agreement dates as of January 23, 2009 which reduced the purchase price to $73.5 million. In accordance with the terms of the Danbury Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Danbury Amendment, the Company received one half of the buyer’s deposits in an amount of $3.1 million from the buyer upon the execution of the Danbury Merger Agreement which payment remains subject to the terms of the Danbury Merger Agreement and the remaining $3.1 million of deposits are held in escrow pending the closing. The Company is scheduled to receive the remainder of the purchase price upon the closing of the sale of the property, which is expected to occur on or before June 1, 2009.

The investments in unconsolidated entities held for sale represent the Company’s interest in certain real estate properties that it holds through various limited liability companies. In accordance with SFAS No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate, and Emerging Issues Task Force 98-8, the Company treats the disposition of these interests similar to the disposition of real estate it holds directly. In addition, pursuant to FIN No. 46(R), when the Company is no longer the primary beneficiary of the LLC, the Company deconsolidates the LLC.

In instances when the Company expects to have significant ongoing cash flows or significant continuing involvement in the component beyond the date of sale, the income (loss) from certain properties held for sale continue to be fully recorded within the continuing operations of the Company through the date of sale.

The net results of discontinued operations and the net gain on dispositions of properties sold or classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2009, in which the Company has no significant ongoing cash flows or significant continuing involvement, are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as discontinued operations. The Company will receive certain fee income from these properties on an ongoing basis that is not considered significant when compared to the operating results of such properties.

15.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Leases — The Company has non-cancelable operating lease obligations for office space and certain equipment ranging from one to ten years, and sublease agreements under which the Company acts as a sublessor. The office space leases often times provide for annual rent increases, and typically require payment of property taxes, insurance and maintenance costs.

Rent expense under these operating leases was approximately $6.2 million and $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Rent expense is included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Operating Leases — Other — The Company is a master lessee of seven multifamily properties in various locations under non-cancelable leases. The leases, which commenced in various months and expire from June 2015 through March 2016, require minimum monthly payments averaging $795,000 over the 10-year period. Rent expense under these operating leases was approximately $2.3 million and $2.2 million for three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The Company subleases these multifamily spaces to third parties. Rental income from these subleases was approximately $3.7 million and $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. As multifamily leases are executed for no more than one year, the Company is unable to project the future minimum rental receipts related to these leases.

The Company is also a 50% joint venture partner of four multi-family residential properties in various locations under non-cancelable leases. The leases, which commenced in various months and expire from

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

November 2014 through January 2015, require minimum monthly payments averaging $372,000 over the 10-year period. Rent expense under these operating leases was approximately $1.2 million and $1.1 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The Company subleases these multifamily spaces to third parties. Rental income from these subleases was approximately $2.3 million and $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. As multifamily leases are executed for no more than one year, the Company is unable to project the future minimum rental receipts related to these leases.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company had recorded liabilities totaling $7.3 million related to such master lease arrangements, consisting of $4.6 million of cumulative deferred revenues relating to acquisition fees and loan fees received from 2004 through 2006 and $2.7 million of additional loss reserves which were recorded in 2008.

TIC Program Exchange Provision - Prior to the Merger, NNN entered into agreements in which NNN agreed to provide certain investors with a right to exchange their investment in certain TIC Programs for an investment in a different TIC program. NNN also entered into an agreement with another investor that provided the investor with certain repurchase rights under certain circumstances with respect to their investment. The agreements containing such rights of exchange and repurchase rights pertain to initial investments in TIC programs totaling $31.6 million. The Company deferred revenues relating to these agreements of $96,000 and $246,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Additional losses of $14.3 million and $2.9 million related to these agreements were recorded through in 2008 and for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to reflect the impairment in value of properties underlying the agreements with investors. As of March 31, 2009, the Company had recorded liabilities totaling $21.0 million related to such agreements, consisting of $3.8 million of cumulative deferred revenues and $17.2 million of additional losses related to these agreements.

Capital Lease Obligations — The Company leases computers, copiers and postage equipment that are accounted for as capital leases (see Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information).

General — The Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits arising out of the ordinary conduct of its business, as well as in connection with its participation in various joint ventures and partnerships, many of which may not be covered by the Company’s insurance policies. In the opinion of management, the eventual outcome of such claims and lawsuits is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Guarantees — From time to time the Company provides guarantees of loans for properties under management. As of March 31, 2009, there were 150 properties under management with loan guarantees of approximately $3.5 billion in total principal outstanding with terms ranging from one to 10 years, secured by properties with a total aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.7 billion as of March 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2008, there were 151 properties under management with loan guarantees of approximately $3.5 billion in total principal outstanding with terms ranging from one to 10 years, secured by properties with a total aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.8 billion as of December 31, 2008. In addition, the consolidated VIEs are jointly and severally liable on the non-recourse mortgage debt related to the interests in the Company’s TIC investments totaling $277.6 million as of March 31, 2009.

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

The Company’s guarantees consisted of the following as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008:


	March 31, 2009		December 31, 2008
(In thousands)

Non-recourse/carve-out guarantees of debt of properties under management(1)	$	3,411,415	$	3,414,433
Non-recourse/carve-out guarantees of the Company’s debt(1)		107,000	$	107,000
Recourse guarantees of debt of properties under management		41,164	$	42,426
Recourse guarantees of the Company’s debt		10,000	$	10,000


(1)		A “non-recourse/carve-out” guarantee imposes liability on the guarantor in the event the borrower engages in certain acts prohibited by the loan documents.

Management initially evaluates these guarantees to determine if the guarantee meets the criteria required to record a liability in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 45. In addition, on an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates the need to record additional liability in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company recorded a liability of $9.1 million, respectively, related to recourse guarantees of debt of properties under management which matured in January and April 2009. Any other such liabilities were insignificant as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

Environmental Obligations — In the Company’s role as property manager, it could incur liabilities for the investigation or remediation of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes at properties the Company currently or formerly managed or at off-site locations where wastes were disposed of. Similarly, under debt financing arrangements on properties owned by sponsored programs, the Company has agreed to indemnify the lenders for environmental liabilities and to remediate any environmental problems that may arise. The Company is not aware of any environmental liability or unasserted claim or assessment relating to an environmental liability that the Company believes would require disclosure or the recording of a loss contingency.

Real Estate Licensing Issues — Although Triple Net Properties Realty, Inc. (“Realty”), which became a subsidiary of the Company as part of the merger with NNN, was required to have real estate licenses in all of the states in which it acted as a broker for NNN’s programs and received real estate commissions prior to 2007, Realty did not hold a license in certain of those states when it earned fees for those services. In addition, almost all of GERI’s revenue was based on an arrangement with Realty to share fees from NNN’s programs. GERI did not hold a real estate license in any state, although most states in which properties of the NNN’s programs were located may have required GERI to hold a license. As a result, Realty and the Company may be subject to penalties, such as fines (which could be a multiple of the amount received), restitution payments and termination of management agreements, and to the suspension or revocation of certain of Realty’s real estate broker licenses. To date there have been no claims, and the Company cannot assess or estimate whether it will incur any losses as a result of the foregoing.

To the extent that the Company incurs any liability arising from the failure to comply with real estate broker licensing requirements in certain states, Mr. Thompson, Louis J. Rogers, former President of GERI, and Jeffrey T. Hanson, the Company’s Chief Investment Officer, have agreed to forfeit to the Company up to an aggregate of 4,124,120 shares of the Company’s common stock, and each share will be deemed to have a value of $11.36 per share in satisfying this obligation. Mr. Thompson has agreed to indemnify the Company, to the extent the liability incurred by the Company for such matters exceeds the deemed $46,865,000 value of these shares, up to an additional $9,435,000 in cash. These obligations terminate on November 16, 2009.

Alesco Seed Capital - On November 16, 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of a 51% membership interest in Grubb & Ellis Alesco Global Advisors, LLC (“Alesco”). Pursuant to the Intercompany Agreement between the Company and Alesco, dated as of November 16, 2007, the Company committed to

GRUBB & ELLIS COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) – (Continued)

invest $20.0 million in seed capital into the open and closed end real estate funds that Alesco expects to launch. Additionally, upon achievement of certain earn-out targets, the Company is required to purchase up to an additional 27% interest in Alesco for $15.0 million. The Company is allowed to use $15.0 million of seed capital to fund the earn-out payments. As of March 31, 2009, the Company has invested $500,000 in seed capital into the open and closed end real estate funds that Alesco launched during 2008.

Deferred Compensation Plan – During 2008, the Company implemented a deferred compensation plan that permits employees and independent contractors to defer portions of their compensation, subject to annual deferral limits, and have it credited to one or more investment options in the plan. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, $2.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively, reflecting the non-stock liability under this plan were included in Other Long Term Liabilities. The Company has purchased whole-life insurance contracts on certain employee participants to recover distributions made or to be made under this plan and as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 have recorded the cash surrender value of the policies of $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in Other Noncurrent Assets.

In addition, the Company awards “phantom” shares of Company stock to participants under the deferred compensation plan. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company awarded an aggregate of 5.8 million and 5.4 million phantom shares, respectively, to certain employees with an aggregate value on the various grant dates of $22.9 million and $22.5 million, respectively. On March 31, 2009, an aggregate of 5.6 million phantom share grants were outstanding. Generally, upon vesting, recipients of the grants are entitled to receive the number of phantom shares granted, regardless of the value of the shares upon the date of vesting; provided, however, grants with respect to 900,000 phantom shares had a guaranteed minimum share price ($3.1 million in the aggregate) that will result in the Company paying additional compensation to the participants should the value of the shares upon vesting be less than the grant date value of the shares.


16.	EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share (“SFAS No. 128”). Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period less unvested restricted shares. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares of stock outstanding during the periods utilizing the treasury stock method for stock options and unvested restricted stock.

These shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because an operating loss was reported or the option exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares for the respective periods. In addition, excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average common shares as of March 31, 2009 and 2008 were approximately 5.6 million and 344,000 shares, respectively, that may be awarded to employees related to the deferred compensation plan.

All unreimbursable amounts are expensed by the Company.

The Company also pays for the organizational, offering and related expenses on behalf of Apartment REIT and Healthcare REIT. These organizational, offering and related expenses include all expenses (other than selling commissions and the marketing support fee which generally represent 7.0% and 2.5% of the gross offering proceeds, respectively) to be paid by Apartment REIT and Healthcare REIT in connection with their offerings.

The Company’s directors and officers, as well as officers, managers and employees have purchased, and may continue to purchase, interests in offerings made by the Company’s programs at a discount. The purchase price for these interests reflects the fact that selling commissions and marketing allowances will not be paid in connection with these sales. The net proceeds to the Company from these sales made net of commissions will be substantially the same as the net proceeds received from other sales.

Included in prepaid expenses and other current assets at March 31, 2009 was a federal income tax refund receivable of $10.3 million, of which $10.2 million was received in April 2009.

As of December 31, 2008, federal net operating loss carryforwards were available to the Company in the amount of approximately $2.2 million, translating to a deferred tax asset before valuation allowance of $800,000 which will begin to expire in 2027. The Company also had state net operating loss carryforwards from previous periods totaling $74.5 million, translating to a deferred tax asset of $6.1 million before valuation allowances.

In evaluating the need for a valuation allowance as of March 31, 2009, the Company evaluated both positive and negative evidence in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Management determined that $15.2 million of deferred tax assets recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2009 do not satisfy the recognition criteria set forth in SFAS No. 109.

Overview and Background

The Company reports its revenue by three business segments in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (“SFAS No. 131”). Transaction Services, which comprises its real estate brokerage operations; Investment Management, which includes providing acquisition, financing and disposition services with respect to its investment programs, asset management services related to its programs, and dealer-manager services by its securities broker-dealer, which facilitates capital raising transactions for its TIC, REIT and other investment programs; and Management Services, which includes property management, corporate facilities management, project management, client accounting, business services and engineering services for unrelated third parties and the properties owned by the programs it sponsors. Additional information on these business segments can be found in Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Report.

Critical Accounting Policies

A discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies, which include principles of consolidation, revenue recognition, impairment of goodwill, deferred taxes, and insurance and claims reserves, can be found in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. There have been no material changes to these policies in 2009.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value instruments. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (the “FSP”). The FSP amends SFAS No. 157 to delay the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (that is, at least annually). There was no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008 as it relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. For items within its scope, the FSP defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 as it relates to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities in the first quarter of 2009, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued revised SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, (“SFAS No. 141R”). SFAS No. 141R changed the accounting for business combinations and requires an acquiring entity to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141R changed the accounting treatment and disclosure for certain specific items in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted SFAS No. 141(R) on a prospective basis on January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) will materially affect the accounting for any future business combinations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — An Amendment of ARB No. 51, (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 established new accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 requires that noncontrolling interests be presented as a component of consolidated stockholders’ equity, eliminates minority interest accounting such that the amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented as part of consolidated net income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and not as a separate component of income and expense, and requires that upon any changes in ownership that result in the loss of control of the subsidiary, the noncontrolling interest be re-measured at fair value with the resultant gain or loss recorded in net income. SFAS No. 160 became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted SFAS No. 160 on a prospective basis on January 1, 2009, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements which were applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 had an impact on the presentation and disclosure of noncontrolling (minority) interests in the consolidated financial statements. As a result of the retrospective presentation and disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 160, the Company is required to reflect the change in presentation and disclosure for all periods presented. Principal effect on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 related to the adoption of SFAS No. 160 was the change in presentation of the mezzanine section of the minority interest to redeemable noncontrolling interest, as reported herein. Additionally, the adoption of SFAS No. 160 had the effect of reclassifying (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interest in the consolidated statements of operations from minority interest to separate line items. SFAS No. 160 also requires that net income (loss) be adjusted to include the net (income) loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest, and a new line item for net income (loss) attributable to controlling interest be presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

enable financial statement users to locate important information about derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 became effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company adopted SFAS No. 161 in the first quarter of 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities (“FSP EITF 03-6-1”), which addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method described in SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. FSP EITF 03-6-1, which will apply to the Company because it grants instruments to employees in share-based payment transactions that meet the definition of participating securities, is effective retrospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted FSP EITF 03-6-1 in the first quarter of 2009. The adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, or FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB Opinion No. 28-1. FSP SFAS No. 107-1 and APB Opinion No. 28-1 relates to fair value disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on the balance sheet at fair value. Prior to issuing this FSP, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed once a year. The FSP now requires these disclosures on a quarterly basis, providing qualitative and quantitative information about fair value estimates for all those financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB Opinion No 28-1 are effective for interim and annual periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of FSP SFAS No. 107-1 and APB Opinion No. 28-1 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company reported revenue of approximately $118.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared with revenue of $150.4 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease was primarily the result of decreases in Transaction Services and Investment Management revenue of $25.6 million and $9.8 million, respectively, partially offset by increases in Management Services revenue of $3.8 million.

The net loss attributable to controlling interest for the first three months of 2009 was $41.5 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, and includes a non-cash charge of $12.0 million for real estate related impairments and a $4.8 million charge, which includes an allowance for bad debt on related party receivables and advances. In addition, the first quarter results included approximately $3.0 million of stock-based compensation and $806,000 for amortization of other identified intangible assets.

Revenue

Transaction and Management Services Revenue

The Company earns revenue from the delivery of transaction and management services to the commercial real estate industry. Transaction fees include commissions from leasing, acquisition and disposition, and agency leasing assignments as well as fees from appraisal and consulting services. Management fees, which include reimbursed salaries, wages and benefits, comprise the remainder of the Company’s services revenue, and include fees related to both property and facilities management outsourcing as well as project management and business services. The Company has typically experienced its lowest quarterly revenue from transaction services in the quarter ending March 31 of each year with higher and more consistent revenue in

the quarters ending June 30 and September 30. The quarter ending December 31 has historically provided the highest quarterly level of revenue due to increased activity caused by the desire of clients to complete transactions by calendar year-end. As of March 31, 2009, the Company managed approximately 241.2 million square feet of property compared to 218.0 million square feet for the same period in 2008.

Management Services revenue of $65.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 includes revenue from the transfer of management of a significant portion of GERI’s captive property portfolio to Grubb & Ellis Managements Services of $2.2 million.

Transaction Services revenue, including brokerage commission, valuation and consulting revenue, was $33.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company’s Transaction Services business was negatively impacted by the current economic environment, which has reduced commercial real estate transaction velocity, particularly investment sales.

Investment Management Revenue

Investment Management revenue of $15.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 reflected the revenue generated through the fee structure of the various investment products, which included acquisition and disposition fees of approximately $2.0 million and captive management fees of $8.5 million. These fees include acquisition, disposition, financing, and property and asset management. Key drivers of this business are the dollar value of equity raised, the amount of transactions that are generated in the investment product platforms and the amount of assets under management.

In total, $210.1 million in equity was raised for the Company’s investment programs for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared with $263.7 million in the same period in 2008. The decrease was driven by a decrease in TIC equity raised, partially offset by an increase in equity raised by the Company’s public non-traded REITs. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company’s public non-traded REIT programs raised $197.8 million, 166.6% more than the $74.2 million equity raised in the same period in 2008. The Company’s TIC 1031 exchange programs raised $10.3 million in equity during the first quarter of 2009, compared with $52.1 million in the same period in 2008. The decrease in TIC equity raised for the three months ended March 31, 2009 reflects the continued decline in current market conditions.

Acquisition fees decreased approximately $8.1 million, or 79.9%, to approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to approximately $10.1 million for the same period in 2008. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in acquisition fees was primarily attributed to a decrease of $3.3 million in fees earned from the Company’s non-traded REIT programs, a decrease in fees from the Private Client Management platform, formerly known as Wealth Management, of $3.0 million, and a decrease of $3.6 million in fees from the TIC programs, offset by $1.9 million in recognition of deferred acquisition fees during the three months ended. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company acquired 3 properties on behalf of its sponsored programs for an approximate aggregate total of $36.4 million, compared to 19 properties for an approximate aggregate total of $348.9 million during the same period in 2008.

Disposition fees decreased approximately $320,000, or 100%, to zero for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to approximately $320,000 for the same period in 2008. There were no disposition fees earned by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2009. Offsetting the disposition fees during the three months ended March 31, 2008 was approximately $423,000 of amortization of identified intangible contract rights associated with the acquisition of Triple Net Properties Realty, Inc. (“Realty”) as they represent the right to future disposition fees of a portfolio of real properties under contract. There was no amortization of identified intangible contract rights for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Captive management fees were down approximately 1.1% year-over-year and include the movement of approximately $2.2 million of revenue to the Company’s management services segment. Exclusive of this transfer of revenue, captive management fees increased approximately 25.7% year-over-year.

Rental Revenue

Rental revenue includes pass-through revenue for the master lease accommodations related to the Company’s TIC programs.

Operating Expense Overview

The Company’s operating expense of $153.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 remained flat year over year when compared to the same period in 2008. Although there was an insignificant change in overall operating expenses, the Company recognized real estate impairments of $5.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009. Additionally an increase in interest expense of $1.1 million due an increase in notes payable secured by properties held for sale balance and increases in general and administrative expense of $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Offsetting these increases were decreases in compensation costs from synergies created as a result of the Merger of $8.9 million and decreases of merger related costs of $2.9 million.

Compensation costs decreased approximately $8.9 million, or 7.3%, to $113.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to approximately $122.2 million for the same period in 2008 due to a decrease in commissions paid of approximately $14.6 million due to the seasonality of the Company’s business as the Company has typically experienced its lowest quarter revenue from Transaction Services in the quarter ending March 31, 2009 partially offset by an increase in compensation costs of $4.5 million as a result of an increase in reimbursable salaries, wages and benefits due to the growth in the Management Services portfolio.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense increased approximately $5.3 million, or 24.3%, to $26.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to approximately $21.7 million for the same period in 2008 due to an increase of approximately $4.8 million in bad debt expense and a $2.6 million increase in legal and audit fees related to the year end audit and restatement partially offset by various decreases related to management’s cost saving efforts.

General and administrative expense was 22.7% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared with 14.4% for the same period in 2008.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization remained flat at approximately $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to approximately the same period in 2008. Included in depreciation and amortization expense was $806,000 for amortization of other identified intangible assets.

Rental Expense

Rental expense includes pass-through expenses for master lease accommodations related to the Company’s TIC programs.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased approximately $1.1 million, or 124.4%, to $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $878,000 for the same period in 2008. Interest expense is primarily comprised of interest expense related to the Company’s line of credit.

Real Estate Related Impairments

The Company recognized an impairment charge of approximately $5.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 related to certain unconsolidated real estate investments. The impairment charges were recognized against the carrying value of the investments during the three months ended March 31, 2009. In addition, the Company recognized approximately $6.8 million in real estate related impairments related to six properties held for sale as of March 31, 2009, for which the net income (loss) of the properties are classified as discontinued operations. See Discontinued Operations discussion below.

Discontinued Operations

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, discontinued operations included the net income (loss) of six properties and two limited liability company (“LLC”) entities classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2009. The net loss of $3.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 includes approximately $6.8 million of real estate related impairments. During October 2008, the Company initiated a plan to sell the properties it classified as held for investment in its financial statements as of September 30, 2008. As of March 31, 2009, the Company had a covenant within its Credit Facility which required the sale of one of these assets before June 1, 2009. The recent downturn in the global capital markets significantly lessened the probability that the Company would be able to achieve relief from this covenant through amendment or other financial resolutions by June 1, 2009. Pursuant to SFAS No. 144, the Company assessed the value of the assets. The impairment charges were recognized against the carrying value of the properties during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Income Tax

The Company recognized a tax expense of approximately $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to a tax benefit of $3.8 million for the same period in 2008. The net $6.1 million increase in tax expense was a result of the $15.2 million valuation allowance recorded against continuing operations to offset tax benefits from the impairment of real estate held for sale recorded against discontinued operations during the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008, the reported effective income tax rates were (6.61%) and 41.91%, respectively. The reduction in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the impact of the $15.2 million valuation allowance. The three months ended March 31, 2009 effective income tax rate of (6.61%) incorporates the tax effect of the adoption of SFAS No. 160. (See Note 19 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Report for additional information.)

Net Loss Attributable to Grubb & Ellis Company

As a result of the above items, the Company recognized a net loss of $41.5 million, or $0.65 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to a net loss of $6.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the same period in 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2009, cash and cash equivalents decreased by approximately $18.9 million, from a cash balance of $33.0 million as of December 31, 2008. The Company’s operating activities used net cash of $19.0 million, as the Company repaid net operating liabilities totaling $7.1 million. Other operating activities used net cash totaling $11.9 million. Investing activities used net cash of $693,000 million primarily for funding Company sponsored real estate programs. Financing activities provided net cash of $814,000 primarily through contributions from noncontrolling interests. The Company believes that it will have sufficient capital resources to satisfy its liquidity needs over the next twelve-month period. The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity needs, which may include principal repayments of debt obligations and capital expenditures, through current and retained earnings. As of March 31, 2009, the Company had $63.0 million outstanding under the Credit Facility.

On December 7, 2007, the Company entered into the Credit Facility to replace its revolving line of credit with LaSalle Bank N.A. The Credit Facility is for general corporate purposes which at the time generally bore interest at either the prime rate or LIBOR based rates plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50%. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had $8.0 million outstanding under the Credit Facility.

On August 5, 2008, the Company entered into the First Letter Amendment to its Credit Facility. The First Letter Amendment, among other things, provided the Company with an extension from September 30, 2008 to March 31, 2009 to dispose of the three real estate assets that the Company had previously acquired on behalf of GERA. Additionally, the First Letter Amendment also, among other things, modified select debt and financial covenants in order to provide greater flexibility to facilitate the Company’s TIC Programs.

On November 4, 2008, the Company amended (the “Second Letter Amendment”) its Credit Agreement. The effective date of the Second Letter Amendment is September 30, 2008. (Certain capitalized terms set forth below that are not otherwise defined herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Credit Facility, as amended.

The Second Letter Amendment, among other things, a) reduced the amount available under the Credit Facility from $75.0 million to $50.0 million by providing that no advances or letters of credit shall be made available to the Company after September 30, 2008 until such time as borrowings have been reduced to less than $50.0 million; b) provided that 100% of any net cash proceeds from the sale of certain real estate assets that have to be sold by the Company shall permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments, provided that the Revolving Credit Commitments shall not be reduced to less than $50.0 million by reason of the operation of such asset sales; and c) modified the interest rate incurred on borrowings by increasing the applicable margins by 100 basis points and by providing for an interest rate floor for any prime rate related borrowings.

Additionally, the Second Letter Amendment, among other things, modified restrictions on guarantees of primary obligations from $125.0 million to $50.0 million, modifies select financial covenants to reflect the impact of the current economic environment on the Company’s financial performance, amended certain restrictions on payments by deleting any dividend/share repurchase limitations and modified the reporting requirements of the Company with respect to real property owned or held.

As of September 30, 2008, the Company was not in compliance with certain of its financial covenants related to EBITDA. As a result, part of the Second Letter Amendment included a provision to modify selected covenants. The Debt /EBITDA ratio for the quarters ending September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008 were amended from 3.75:1.00 to 5.50:1.00, while the Debt /EBITDA Ratio for the quarters ending March 31, 2009 and thereafter remain at 3.50:1.00. The Interest Coverage Ratio for the quarters ending September 30, 2008, December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009 were amended from 3.50:1.00 to 3.25:1.00, while the Interest Coverage Ratio for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009 remained unchanged at 3.50:1.00 and for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and thereafter remained unchanged at 4.00:1.00. The Recourse Debt/Core EBITDA Ratio for the quarters ending September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008 were amended from 2.25:1.00 to 4.25:1.00, while the Recourse Debt/Core EBITDA Ratio for the quarters thereafter remained unchanged at 2.25:1.00. The Core EBITDA to be maintained by the Company at all times was reduced from $60.0 million to $30.0 million and the Minimum Liquidity to be maintained by the Company at all times was reduced from $25.0 million to $15.0 million. The Company was not in compliance with certain debt covenants as of March 31, 2009, all of which were effectively cured as of such date by the Third Amendment to the Credit Facility described below. As a consequence of the foregoing, and certain provisions of the Third Amendment, the $63.0 million outstanding under the Credit Facility has been classified as a current liability as of March 31, 2009.

outstanding as of the date of the Third Amendment. The Third Amendment requires the Company to draw down $4,289,245 under the Revolving Credit B Facility on the date of the Third Amendment and deposit such funds in a cash collateral account to cash collateralize outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Facility and eliminates the swingline features of the Credit Facility and the Company’s ability to cause the lenders to issue any additional letters of credit. In addition, the Third Amendment also changes the termination date of the Credit Facility from December 7, 2010 to March 31, 2010 and modifies the interest rate incurred on borrowings by initially increasing the applicable margin by 450 basis points (or to 7.00% on prime rate loans and 8.00% on LIBOR based loans).

The Third Amendment also eliminated specific financial covenants, and in its place, the Company is required to comply with the Approved Budget, that has been agreed to by the Company and the lenders, subject to agreed upon variances. The Company is also required under the Third Amendment to effect the Recapitalization Plan, on or before September 30, 2009 and in connection therewith to effect the Partial Prepayment of the Revolving A Credit Facility. In the event the Company fails to effect the Recapitalization Plan and in connection therewith to reduce the Revolving Credit A Credit Facility by the Partial Prepayment amount, the (i) lenders will have the right commencing on October 1, 2009, to exercise the Warrants, for nominal consideration, to purchase common stock of the Company equal to 15% of the common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis as of such date, subject to adjustment, (ii) the applicable margin automatically increases to 11% on prime rate loans and increases to 12% on LIBOR based loans, (iii) the Company shall be required to amortize an aggregate of $10 million of the Revolving Credit A Facility in three (3) equal installments on the first business day of each of the last three (3) months of 2009, (iv) the Company is obligated to submit a revised budget by October 1, 2009, (v) the Credit Facility will terminate on January 15, 2010, and (vi) no further advances may be drawn under the Credit Facility.

In the event that Company effects the Recapitalization Plan and the Partial Prepayment amount on or prior to September 30, 2009, the Warrants automatically will expire and not become exercisable, the applicable margin will automatically be reduced to 3% on prime rate loans and 4% on LIBOR based loans and the Company shall have the right, subject to the requisite approval of the lenders, to seek an extension to extend the term of the Credit Facility to January 5, 2011, provided the Company also pays a fee of .25% of the then outstanding commitments under the Credit Facility.

As a result of the Third Amendment the Company is required to prepay Revolving Credit A Advances (and to the extent the Revolving Credit A Facility shall be reduced to zero, prepay outstanding Revolving Credit B Advances) in an amount equal to 100% (or, after the Revolving Credit A Advances are reduced by at least the Partial Prepayment amount, in an amount equal to 50%) of Net Cash Proceeds (as defined in the Credit Agreement) from:


	•	assets sales,

	•	conversions of Investments (as defined in the Credit Agreement),

	•	the refund of any taxes or the sale of equity interests by the Company or its subsidiaries,

	•	the issuance of debt securities, or

	•	any other transaction or event occurring outside the ordinary course of business of the Company or its subsidiaries;

provided, however, that (a) the Net Cash Proceeds received from the sale of the certain real property assets shall be used to prepay outstanding Revolving Credit B Advances and to the extent Revolving Credit B Advances shall be reduced to zero, to prepay outstanding Revolving Credit A Advances, (b) the Company shall prepay outstanding Revolving Credit B Advances in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of the Danbury Property unless the Company is then not in compliance with the Recapitalization Plan in which event Revolving Credit A Advances shall be prepaid first and (c) the Company’s 2008 tax refund was used to prepay outstanding Revolving Credit B Advances upon the closing of the Third Amendment.

The Company’s Line of Credit (as defined below) is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets and requires the Company to meet certain minimum loan to value, debt service coverage and performance covenants, including the timely payment of interest. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 the outstanding balance on the line of credit was $63.0 million and carried a weighted average interest rate of 4.02% and 5.80%, respectively.

As part of the Company’s strategic plan, management has identified more than $20.0 million of expense synergies, a portion of which has been invested in enhancing the management team with the addition of several executives in key operational and management roles. In connection with the Merger, the Company announced its intention to pay a $0.41 per share dividend per annum, which equates to approximately $26.5 million on an annual basis. The Company declared and paid such dividends for holders of records at the end of each of the fourth calendar quarter of 2007 and the first and second calendar quarters of 2008. On July 11, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the suspension of future dividend payments. In addition, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $25 million of its common stock through the end of 2009. The Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

The Company expects to meet its long-term liquidity needs, which may include principal repayments of debt obligations, investments in various real estate investor programs and institutional funds and capital expenditures, through current and retained cash flow earnings, the sale of real estate properties, additional long-term secured and unsecured borrowings and proceeds from the potential issuance of debt or equity securities and the potential sale of other assets. The Credit Facility restricts our ability to operate outside of the Approved Budget without the permission of the requisite majority of lenders, and the failure to operate within the Approved Budget by more than the greater of $1,500,000 or 15% on a cumulative basis for more than three consecutive weeks would, absent the requisite approval, result in an event of default of the Credit Facility and make the entire balance due and payable. In addition, we are required to remit Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of assets including real estate assets to repay advances under the Credit Facility and pursue additional sources of capital in accordance with the Recapitalization Plan. The Company’s Credit Facility requires the Company to implement the Recapitalization Plan and complete each step provided in the Recapitalization Plan by the dates set for such completion. In the event the Company is unable to effect the Partial Prepayment in connection with the Recapitalization Plan by September 30, 2009, the Company is required to amortize $10 million of the Revolving Credit A Facility in three equal installments on the first business day of each of the last three months of 2009 and the entire Credit Facility would become due and payable on January 15, 2010. In addition, the Company would not have access to any further advances under the Revolving Credit B Facility which would greatly reduce the Company’s liquidity. All of these demands put the Company’s liquidity and financial resources at risk.

Commitments, Contingencies and Other Contractual Obligations

Contractual Obligations — The Company leases office space throughout the United States through non-cancelable operating leases, which expire at various dates through 2016.

There have been no significant changes in the Company’s contractual obligations since December 31, 2008.

agreements of $96,000 and 246,000 for the period and year ending March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Additional losses of $14.3 million and $2.9 million related to these agreements were recorded through in 2008 and for the three months ended March 31, 2009 to reflect the impairment in value of properties underlying the agreements with investors. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 the Company had recorded liabilities totaling $21.0 million related to such agreements, consisting of $3.8 million of cumulative deferred revenues and $17.2 million of additional losses related to these agreements.

Guarantees — From time to time the Company provides guarantees of loans for properties under management. As of March 31, 2009, there were 150 properties under management with loan guarantees of approximately $3.5 billion in total principal outstanding with terms ranging from one to 10 years, secured by properties with a total aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.8 billion as of March 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2008, there were 151 properties under management with loan guarantees of approximately $3.5 billion in total principal outstanding with terms ranging from one to 10 years, secured by properties with a total aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.8 billion as of December 31, 2008. In addition, the consolidated VIEs are jointly and severally liable on the non-recourse mortgage debt related to the interests in the Company’s TIC investments totaling $277.6 million as of March 31, 2009.

The Company’s guarantees consisted of the following as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008:


	March 31, 2009		December 31, 2008
(In thousands)

Non-recourse/carve-out guarantees of debt of properties under management(1)	$	3,411,415	$	3,414,433
Non-recourse/carve-out guarantees of the Company’s debt(1)	$	107,000	$	107,000
Recourse guarantees of debt of properties under management	$	41,164	$	42,426
Recourse guarantees of the Company’s debt	$	10,000	$	10,000


(1)		A “non-recourse/carve-out” guarantee imposes liability on the guarantor in the event the borrower engages in certain acts prohibited by the loan documents.

Management evaluates these guarantees to determine if the guarantee meets the criteria required to record a liability in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 45. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company recorded a liability of $9.1 million, respectively, related to recourse guarantees of debt of properties under management which matured in January and April 2009. Any other such liabilities were insignificant as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

Deferred Compensation Plan – During 2008, the Company implemented a deferred compensation plan that permits employees and independent contractors to defer portions of their compensation, subject to annual deferral limits, and have it credited to one or more investment options in the plan. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 $2.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively, reflecting the non-stock liability under this plan were included in Other Long Term Liabilities. The Company has purchased whole-life insurance contracts on certain employee participants to recover distributions made or to be made under this plan and as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 have recorded the cash surrender value of the policies of $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in Other Noncurrent Assets.


Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk

Derivatives — The Company’s credit facility debt obligations are floating rate obligations whose interest rate and related monthly interest payments vary with the movement in LIBOR and/or prime lending rates. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the outstanding principal balance on the credit facility totaled $63.0 million and on the mortgage loan debt obligations totaled $216.2 million and $216.0 million, respectively. Since interest payments on any future obligation will increase if interest rate markets rise, or decrease if interest rate markets decline, the Company will be subject to cash flow risk related to these debt instruments. In order to mitigate this risk, the terms of the Company’s amended credit agreement require the Company to maintain interest rate hedge agreements against 50 percent of all variable interest rate debt obligations. To fulfill this requirement, the Company holds two interest rate cap agreements with Deutsche Bank AG, which provide for quarterly payments to the Company equal to the variable interest amount paid by the Company in excess of 6.00% of the underlying notional amounts. These rate cap agreements expired in April 2009. In addition, the terms of certain mortgage loan agreements require the Company to purchase two-year interest rate caps on 30-day LIBOR with a LIBOR strike price of 6.00%, thereby locking the maximum interest rate on borrowings under the mortgage loans at 7.70% for the initial two year term of the mortgage loans.

The Company’s earnings are affected by changes in short-term interest rates as a result of the variable interest rates incurred on its line of credit. The Company’s line of credit debt obligation is secured by its assets, bears interest at the bank’s prime rate or LIBOR plus applicable margins based on the Company’s financial performance and mature in December 2010. Since interest payments on this obligation will increase if interest rate markets rise, or decrease if interest rate markets decline, the Company is subject to cash flow risk related to this debt instrument as amounts are drawn under the Credit Facility.

Additionally, the Company’s earnings are affected by changes in short-term interest rates as a result of the variable interest rate incurred on the portion of the outstanding mortgages on its real estate held for sale. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the outstanding principal balance on these variable rate debt obligations was $216.2 million and $108.7 million, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.05% and 3.78% per annum, respectively. Since interest payments on these obligations will increase if interest rates rise, or decrease if interest rates decline, the Company is subject to cash flow risk related to these debt instruments. As of March 31, 2009, for example, a 0.50% increase in interest rates would have increased the Company’s overall annual interest expense by approximately $390,000, or 3.57%. As of December 31, 2008, for example, a 0.5% increase in interest rates would have increased the Company’s overall annual interest expense by approximately $390,000, or 3.67%. This sensitivity analysis contains certain simplifying assumptions, for example, it does not consider the impact of changes in prepayment risk.

During the fourth quarter of 2006, GERI entered into several interest rate lock agreements with commercial banks aggregating to approximately $400.0 million, with interest rates ranging from 6.15% to 6.19% per annum. All rate locks were cancelled and all deposits in connection with these agreements were refunded to the Company in April 2008.

Except for the acquisition of Grubb & Ellis Alesco Global Advisors, LLC, as previously described, the Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, nor does it utilize leveraged financial instruments.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures.

Material Weakness Previously Disclosed

During the first fiscal quarter of 2009, there has been an ongoing focus on the remediation activities to address the material weaknesses in disclosure and financial reporting controls reported in the 2008 Form 10-K. As previously reported, because many of the remedial actions undertaken were very recent and related, in part, to the hiring of additional personnel and many of the controls in our system of internal controls rely extensively on manual review and approval, the successful operation of these remedial actions for, at least, several fiscal quarters may be required prior to management being able to conclude that the material weaknesses have been eliminated.

The Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer anticipate that the remedial actions and resulting improvement in controls will generally strengthen our disclosure controls and procedures, as well as our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(c) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), and will, over time, address the material weaknesses identified in the 2008 Form 10-K.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2009, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our principal executive officer (CEO) and principal financial officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. In light of the material weakness discussed above, which has not been fully remediated as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our CEO and CFO concluded, after the evaluation described above, that our disclosure controls were not effective. As a result of this conclusion, the financial statements for the period covered by this report were prepared with particular attention to the material weakness previously disclosed. Accordingly, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Other than the remediation activities noted above, there were no changes to the Company’s controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
