On December 22, 1995, Vanguard Real Estate Fund II (the "Fund") sold the
remaining four buildings in its Penn Warner Industrial Portfolio ("Penn Warner")
located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania for a contract price of $4,885,000. In
connection with the sale, the Fund received net proceeds of approximately
$4,620,000 after expenses associated with the sale. Penn Warner's carrying value
as of the date of the transaction was approximately $4,393,000. In accordance
with the terms of the advisory agreement between the Fund and Aldrich, Eastman
and Waltch (AEW), the Fund incurred a disposition fee of approximately $70,000,
representing 1.5% of the contract price less selling costs. The Fund also, at
closing, paid a brokerage commission of $122,000.
In 1989, the Fund invested $11,218,000 to acquire this industrial complex, which
initially consisted of six, single-story buildings. Two of these buildings (the
Beitel and Heucotech Buildings) were sold in the latter part of 1994 for net
proceeds of $2,668,000.
