On June 30, 2015, the Registrant entered into a Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership of Marina del Rey Limited Dividend Partnership Associates (the Amendment) by and among the Registrant, Puerto Rico Management, LLC, a California limited liability company, the General Partner of the Partnership (PRM), and Vicente Geigel Polanco LP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the Assignee), pursuant to which Registrant assigned 100% of its interests in the Partnership to the Assignee in exchange for a payment of $400,000. Following such payment, the Registrant no longer held any interest in the Partnership and had no rights, obligations or liabilities related thereto.
Item 2.01
