ITEM 8.01                                       Other Events.

 

The Company has entered into two separate interest rate lock agreements under which the Company expects to obtain, in March or April 2008, two individual separate five year interest only mortgage loans, to be secured by the Company’s Avalon at Arlington Square community in Arlington, Virginia and its Avalon at Cameron Court community in Alexandria, Virginia, respectively. The Company expects to borrow approximately $265 million in the aggregate in the two transactions. Interest will be fixed at a weighted average interest rate of 4.78% per annum for five years. The Company has an option to extend the Avalon at Arlington Square loan for one additional year, during which the loan may be prepaid without penalty.

 

During the extension period, interest would be incurred at a variable interest based on the one month London Interbank Offered Rate plus a spread of 2.50% per annum. The Company may pursue additional secured financing opportunities in the future. There can be no assurance that the two pending loans, or the other financings that the Company may potentially pursue in the future, will be approved by the relevant lenders or the Company or that these financings will close and if so at what interest rates or other terms. The Company expects to use the funds from these loans, if completed, to pay amounts outstanding now or in the future under the Company’s unsecured credit facility and to support the Company’s development and redevelopment activity.
