On February 29, 2012, Corinthian Colleges, Inc. ("Corinthian" or the "Company"), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Heald Real Estate, LLC, completed its previously-announced sale of five properties located in Fresno, Milpitas, Stockton, Rancho Cordova and Roseville, California (the "Properties") to affiliates of STORE Capital Acquisitions, LLC ("STORE"), upon substantially the terms set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 2, 2012. The aggregate purchase price paid by STORE was $39.9 million. Simultaneously with the sale of the Properties, Corinthian leased the five properties back from STORE for a fifteen year term at an initial aggregate rental rate of approximately $3.5 million per year, with annual increases in the rental rate of no more than 1.5%. The Company currently operates a Heald College campus at each of the Properties, and will continue to do so under the lease from STORE.
