11. Subsequent Events

On July 1, 2015, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, we repaid our $11.3 million mortgage on our Canton, Dayton, and Akron, Ohio properties. The mortgage was originally set to mature on September 1, 2015. We borrowed $1.7 million pursuant to a long-term note payable from Synovus bank to refinance a portion of this debt. The new loan is variable rate and we entered into an interest rate cap with Synovus Bank to hedge against the variability of the LIBOR rate, at a cost of approximately $0.07 million through July 1, 2018. We will receive payments from Synovus Bank if the one month LIBOR rate increases above 3.0%.

On July 13, 2015 we executed a lease with a new tenant in our Raleigh, North Carolina property to occupy 86,886 square feet, 75.0% of the total square footage. The current tenant will retain 18.0% of the space and the building will be approximately 93.0% occupied. The lease will commence on August 1, 2015 and will expire on December 31, 2027. The new lease provides for prescribed rent escalations over its life, with annualized straight line rents of approximately $0.5 million. The lease grants the tenant two extension options for an additional five years each. In connection with the execution of the lease, we will pay $0.8 million in tenant improvements, and anticipate paying $0.4 million in leasing commissions.

On July 15, 2015 we acquired a 78,151 square foot single-tenant, office building located in Atlanta, Georgia for $13.0 million, excluding related acquisition expenses of $0.1 million. We funded this acquisition with existing cash on hand and the issuance of $7.5 million of mortgage debt on the property. The tenant leased 54,836 square feet of the property for 7 years, and the remaining 23,315 square feet for 15 years. The tenant has 2 options to renew both leases for an additional 5 years each. The lease provides for prescribed rent escalations over its life with annualized straight line rents of $1.3 million. The average cap rate on this acquisition is 9.9%.

On July 24, 2015, we entered into the Amended Advisory Agreement, which revised the calculation of the annual base management and annual incentive fee and also added a capital gains fee and a termination fee, effective July 1, 2015. Please refer to footnote 2 for a detailed explanation of these changes.
