Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
Cobblers Mall, Elgin, Illinois
On May 6, 1997, the Company acquired a Neighborhood Retail Center located at
Summit Road and Route 58 in Elgin, Illinois known as Cobblers Mall from
Hamilton Partners, an unaffiliated third party, for approximately $10.953
million. The purchase price was funded using cash and cash equivalents. The
purchase price was approximately $106.71 per square foot, which the Company
concluded was fair and reasonable and within the range of values indicated in
an appraisal received by the Company and presented to the Company's board of
directors.
Cobblers Mall was built in 1993 and consists of a one-story, multi-tenant
retail facility aggregating 102,643 rentable square feet. As of May 6, 1997,
Cobblers Mall was 91% leased (100% leased if the master lease, which lasts for
one year, is considered). In evaluating Cobblers Mall as a potential
acquisition, the Company considered a variety of factors including location,
demographics, tenant mix, price per square foot, existing rental rates compared
to market rates, and occupancy. The Company believes that the center is
located within a vibrant economic area. Although approximately 63% of the
rentable square feet at Cobblers Mall is leased to one tenant, the Company's
management believes that retenanting of any space which is vacated in the
future should be accomplished relatively quickly and at rental rates comparable
to those currently paid by the tenants at the facility. The Company did not
consider any other factors materially relevant to the decision to acquire the
property.
The Company does not anticipate making any significant repairs and improvements
to Cobblers Mall over the next few years. Nevertheless, a substantial portion
of any cost of repairs and improvements would be paid by the tenants.
The table below sets forth certain information with respect to the occupancy
rate at Cobblers Mall expressed as a percentage of total gross leasable area
and the average effective annual base rent per square foot.
Occupancy Rate

Year Ending December 31, Effective Annual Rental

1996 90.65% $9.62
1995 90.80 9.26
1994 85.93 8.63
1993 79.93 5.62
-2-
The sole tenant leasing more than 10% of the total square footage is Jewel/Osco,
a regional grocery/pharmacy chain, which leases 64,938 square feet, or
approximately 63.27% of the rentable square feet. The lease with Jewel/Osco
requires Jewel/Osco to pay base rent equal to $9.85 per square foot per annum
payable monthly until March 31, 2013. The lease with Jewel/Osco contains no
option to renew.
For federal income tax purposes, the Company's depreciable basis in Cobblers
Mall will be approximately $10,900,000. Depreciation expense, for tax purposes,
will be computed using the straight-line method. Buildings and improvements are
depreciated based upon estimated useful lives of 40 years.
Information regarding real estate taxes payable in 1996 for the tax year ended
1995 (the most recent tax year for which information is generally available)
were $400,919. The real estate taxes payable were calculated by multiplying
Cobblers Malls assessed value by an equalizer of 2.1243 and a tax rate of
10.097%.
