ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On November 27, 1996, Arden Realty, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries,
the "Company") completed a series of transactions to acquire three suburban
office properties totaling 295,182 rentable square feet from unaffiliated
entities.
The first property, 1970 and 1990 E. Grand Avenue, El Segundo, California,
comprises 84,500 rentable square feet and is vacant. The purchase price for the
property was approximately $3,450,000, which was based on arms length
negotiations. The Company plans to complete capital improvements to the
property over the next three months for approximately $1,100,000 and then
initiate lease up of the property. Quoted market rental rates are $16.20 per
square foot, although there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
achieve rents at this level. The property was purchased from Continental
Grand Company, a California limited partnership.
The second property, 2730 Wilshire Boulevard, Santa Monica, California, contains
55,080 rentable square feet of office space and 16 apartment units comprising
12,740 square feet. The purchase price for the property was approximately
$9,500,000, which was based on arms length negotiations. The office building is
presently 93% occupied, at average rents of $21.00 per square foot. The quoted
market rental rates are $21.00 per square foot. The apartments are presently
100% occupied, at average rents of $1.23 per square foot per month. The
property was purchased from Kennedy-Wilson, Inc.
The third property, Burbank Executive Center, contains two office buildings
totaling 142,862 rentable square feet. The purchase price for the property was
approximately $13,000,000, which was based on arms length negotiations. The
property is presently 92% occupied, at average rents of $18.84 per square foot.
Quoted market rental rates are $19.20 per square foot. The property was
purchased from Property Asset Management Inc.
The Company financed these acquisitions with its existing $104,000,000 bridge
loan with Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc., bringing the outstanding balance on
that loan to $78,000,000.
