On December 12, 2012, the Company, through indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Buyer”), entered into a sale, purchase and escrow agreement to purchase an apartment complex, containing 228 apartment units located on approximately 5.59 acres of land in Eden Prairie, Minnesota (“Watertower Apartments”). On November 29, 2012, the Company's sub-advisor, entered into a sale, purchase and escrow agreement with Eden Prairie Watertower LLC (the "Seller") to purchase Watertower Apartments. The Seller is not affiliated with the Company or its advisors. On December 12, 2012, the Company's sub-advisor assigned this agreement to the Buyer for $0.2 million, which is the amount of the first deposit under the sale, purchase and escrow agreement. Subsequent to the assignment, the Company made an additional deposit of $1.3 million. Pursuant to the sale, purchase and escrow agreement, the Company would be obligated to purchase Watertower Apartments only after satisfaction of agreed upon closing conditions.
Watertower Apartments is located in Eden Prairie, Minnesota and consists of 228 apartment units encompassing 218,710 rentable square feet.

Additionally, Watertower Apartments contains two retail spaces encompassing 10,065 rentable square feet, which are both currently leased.
