Recent Developments

On January 18, 2017, a subsidiary of the Company entered into a contract for the acquisition of Hollywood Center Studios, a 14.9 acre, approximately 369,000 square foot media and entertainment campus located in Hollywood, California, for $200.0 million (before credits, prorations and closing costs) from Studio Management Services, Inc. Based on the Company’s experience operating its existing media and entertainment assets, Sunset Gower and Sunset Bronson, the Company believes there is significant opportunity for revenue enhancements and cost improvements at Hollywood Center Studios. In addition to the opportunity for improvements, the property also includes excess density, which the Company estimates may support approximately 575,000 developable square feet, all of which remains subject to entitlement approvals that have not yet been obtained. The Company has determined that approximately $25.0 million of the $200.0 million gross purchase price is attributable to density associated with developable land.

The acquisition of Hollywood Center Studios is expected to close in the second quarter of 2017, subject to customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that the acquisition will close within the expected time frame or at all.
