ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
On April 20, 1998, Wilshire Real Estate Investment Trust Inc. (the
"Company") acquired five (5) retail buildings and an office
complex/warehouse/distribution center, totaling 444,864 square feet, from G.I.
Joe's, Inc., an unaffiliated third party. The purchase price was approximately
$28.5 million. Approximately $7.5 million of the purchase price was provided in
cash from the Company's initial public offering of common stock. The source of
the balance of the purchase price was a mortgage loan in the amount of
approximately $21.0 million from Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage Capital
LLC. The purchase price was determined through arms length negotiations between
the Company and G.I. Joe's, Inc. The retail buildings are located in Salem,
Oak Grove, Lake Oswego and Gresham, all in the State of Oregon. The
office/warehouse/ distribution center is located in Wilsonville, Oregon. All of
the buildings are leased to G.I. Joe's, Inc. on competitive market rents under
fifteen year leases ending in April 2013. G.I. Joe's subleases 29,952 square
feet in Salem to Office Depot, Inc. The land at the Gresham location is under a
50-year ground lease (expiration in year 2037) with five (5) 10-year options
