Item 8.01.    Other Events.
On March 28, 2014, Lexington Realty Trust, which we refer to as the Trust, entered into a build-to-suit arrangement to acquire approximately 34 acres of land and construct a four building, 664,100 square foot campus, which will be leased to The Dow Chemical Company in Lake Jackson, Texas (Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown, TX CBSA) for a 20-year term. The campus, to be known as the Texas Innovation Center, will contain an amenities building, a warehouse building and two research and development buildings.
The Trust’s unreimbursed maximum capital commitment is approximately $166 million. The first year of the lease with The Dow Chemical Company is expected to commence in October 2016 and provide the Trust with an initial cash return of 7.30%. The base rent increases 2% at the end of each year of the lease.
