Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

See Item 8.01 below.

Item 8.01 Other Events

On August 26, 2010, we received $256.5 million of gross proceeds from a previously announced financing that had been escrowed pending completion and delivery of the 30th Street Post Office and Cira South Garage projects. We used the loan proceeds to reduce borrowings under our credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

The 30th Street Post Office project in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is a $252 million historic rehabilitation of an 862,692 square foot office building which is 100% pre-leased to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a twenty-year term. The $90 million Cira South Garage project is located across the street from the 30th Street Post Office and consists of a 1,662 car parking structure and 9,788 square feet of retail space which is 93.2% leased overall.

The financing encompasses individual project loans of $209.7 million on the Post Office and $46.8 million on the Garage. The loans bear interest at 5.93% with interest-only through September 10, 2010 following which they will amortize monthly over a twenty year period beginning with the October 10, 2010 debt service payment. The loans are non-recourse and are secured by mortgages on the Post Office and Garage.

Our financing costs include the gross forward commitment fee of $17.7 million which was funded into an escrow account on June 29, 2009 that was administered by The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee. After investment of the escrow account in a portfolio of US Government securities, the forward commitment fee was reduced to $16.9 million. Including other costs of $3.3 million, we will have a total of $20.2 million of financing costs associated with this transaction and such amounts will be amortized over the twenty year term of the loans using the effective interest rate method.
