Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 23, 2009, we entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Roskamp Management Company, LLC ("Roskamp") for the purchase of a 17 property portfolio in Sun City and Sun City West, Arizona. The portfolio consists of approximately 641,000 rentable square feet in the aggregate. The purchase price for the portfolio is $107,000,000.

The acquisition of such property is subject to a number of conditions including our receipt of satisfactory due diligence information and satisfaction of other conditions contained in the Purchase Agreement, including the execution of the leases with Roskamp. Upon execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company paid a $1,000,000 escrow deposit which will be applied as a credit to the purchase price at closing. If no notice of termination of the Purchase Agreement is given to Roskamp prior to the expiration of the due diligence period on November 25, 2009, this deposit will be non-refundable except in limited circumstances. The purchase agreement contemplates the closing to occur 21 days after the expiration of the due diligence period at which time the Company will pay an additional $3,000,000 escrow deposit.





Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On October 26, 2009, we distributed a press release announcing the completed acquisition of the Roskamp Portfolio. The full text of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated into this Item 7.01.

The information furnished under Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.
