Section 8 – Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events
First Real Estate Investment Trust of New Jersey (“FREIT”) owns a 63,932 square foot store in Patchogue, New York that is leased to Pathmark, a subsidiary of the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (“A&P”), and operated as a Pathmark Super Store. FREIT was notified by A&P on December 23, 2015 that this lease will be rejected as of December 31, 2015 as a result of A&P’s filing for protection under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code.
As a result of the lease being rejected, annual rents will decrease by approximately $1.4 million until the store is re-leased.
