Item 2.01    Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On May 9, 2012, GRT Pearlridge, LLC (“Purchaser”), a Delaware limited liability company and affiliate of Glimcher Realty Trust (the “Registrant”), completed its purchase of the 80% joint venture interest in BRE/Pearlridge Holdings, LLC ("BRE Holdings") for $289.4 million (the “Purchase Price”). The aforementioned joint venture interest was acquired from an affiliate of The Blackstone Group (“Blackstone”). The Purchaser's execution of the purchase and sale agreement with the Blackstone affiliate regarding the aforementioned transaction was previously reported on a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 21, 2012. With this acquisition, BRE Holdings will be a wholly-owned affiliate of the Registrant. BRE Holdings is the indirect parent company of BRE/Pearlridge, LLC (“BRE/Pearlridge”), a Delaware limited liability company that is the fee owner and operator of Pearlridge Center ("Pearlridge"), a fully enclosed regional mall with approximately 1.1 million square feet of gross leaseable area that is located in Aiea, Hawaii, just outside Honolulu. As a result of this transaction, the Registrant will indirectly own 100% of the interests in BRE/Pearlridge including ownership and control of Pearlridge.

The cash portion of the Purchase Price was funded entirely through the net proceeds received from the Registrant's underwritten public offering of common shares completed in March 2012 and described in Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 27, 2012. The Purchase Price is comprised of Blackstone's pro-rata share of the $175.0 million mortgage debt encumbering Pearlridge and cash totaling $149.4 million. In addition to the aforementioned transaction, another affiliate of the Registrant is involved in an existing joint venture with another Blackstone affiliate pertaining to the ownership, operation, and management of two other regional mall properties held within the Registrant's real estate portfolio.

A copy of the press release announcing the transaction described above is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Financial statements required to comply with the rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X for the purchase of the joint venture interest and pro forma financial statements reflecting the effect of this purchase are included herein under Item 9.01.

Independent Auditors' Report



To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Glimcher Realty Trust
Columbus, Ohio



We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses of BRE/Pearlridge, LLC for the year ended December 31, 2011. The statement of revenues and certain expenses is the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of revenues and certain expenses based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of revenues and certain expenses are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenues and certain expenses, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in a Form 8-K of Glimcher Realty Trust. As described in Note 1, material amounts that would not be comparable to those resulting from the proposed future operations of BRE/ Pearlridge, LLC are excluded from the statement of revenues and certain expenses and the statement of revenues and certain expenses is not intended to be a complete presentation of BRE/Pearlridge, LLC's revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expenses referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses, as described in Note 1, of BRE/Pearlridge, LLC for the year ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and the Year Ended December 31, 2011
(dollars in thousands)


1.
Background and Basis of Presentation

BRE/Pearlridge, LLC (“BRE/Pearlridge”) was initially formed as an indirect subsidiary of an 80%/20% joint venture between BRE/Pearlridge Member, LLC, an affiliate of The Blackstone Group (“Blackstone”), and GRT Pearlridge, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Glimcher Realty Trust (the “Company”), for the purpose of operating and holding for long-term investment the real property and improvements located in Aiea, Hawaii known as Pearlridge Center ("Pearlridge"). Pearlridge is a fully-enclosed regional mall with approximately 1.1 million square feet of gross leasable area and is located in the greater Honolulu metropolitan area. On May 9, 2012, GRT Pearlridge, LLC purchased Blackstone's 80% interest in BRE/Pearlridge for $289,400. The purchase price is comprised of GRT Pearlridge, LLC assuming Blackstone's pro rata share of the $175,000 mortgage debt which encumbers Pearlridge and a cash payment to Blackstone of $149,400. GRT Pearlridge, LLC owns 100% of the interest in BRE/Pearlridge as a result of this acquisition.

The accompanying statements of revenues and certain expenses (the “Statements”) have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.  The Statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), Regulation S-X, Rule 3-14, and for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K of the Company.  The Statements are not intended to be a complete presentation of the revenues and expenses of BRE/Pearlridge.  Certain expenses, primarily depreciation and amortization, interest, property management fees and other costs not directly related to the future operations of BRE/Pearlridge, have been excluded.

The statement of revenues and certain expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the revenues and certain expenses for the interim period have been included. Revenues and certain expenses for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

Subsequent events have been evaluated through March 21, 2012, the date the annual financial statements were originally filed with the SEC, and through May 14, 2012, the date the interim financial statements were filed with the SEC.



2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

Minimum rents are recognized on an accrual basis over the terms of the related leases on a straight-line basis.  Percentage rents, which are based on tenants' sales as reported to the Company, are recognized once the sales reported by such tenants exceed any applicable breakpoints as specified in the tenants' leases.  The percentage rents are recognized based upon the measurement dates specified in the leases which indicate when the percentage rent is due. Recoveries from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance and other shopping center operating expenses are recognized as revenues in the period that the applicable costs are incurred.

Property Operating Expenses

Property operating expenses represent the direct expenses of operating the property and include maintenance, utilities, and repair costs that are expected to continue in the ongoing operations of BRE/Pearlridge.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

Other Operating Expenses

Other operating expenses primarily include expenses related to a ground lease of Pearlridge's underlying real estate.  The ground lease provides for scheduled rent increases every five years through the end of 2043, at which time the minimum ground rent is adjusted to the higher of fair market value or the ground rent charged in the previous year for the remaining 15-year term. The ground lease has two ten-year extension options which are exercisable at the option of BRE/Pearlridge. Payments under the ground lease are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the Statements and accompanying footnotes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


3.    Commitments

The real estate underlying Pearlridge is subject to a ground lease that expires in 2058.  Future minimum rental payments, excluding the reimbursement of real estate taxes, as of December 31, 2011 are as follows:

Year Ending December 31,
 
Amount
2012
 
$
3,392

3,781

2016
 
 
3,781

Thereafter
 
 
245,202

Total
 
$
263,329


Ground lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $1,516 and $6,064, respectively, including $608 and $2,433 in straight-line rent, respectively, which are included in “Other operating expenses” in the Statements.


4.    Future Minimum Rental Income

BRE/Pearlridge receives rental income from the leasing of retail shopping and office space at Pearlridge under operating leases with expiration dates currently through the year 2032.  The minimum future base rentals under non-cancelable operating leases as of December 31, 2011 are as follows:

Year Ending December 31,
 
Amount
2012
 
$
21,152

2013
 
 
19,482

2014

15,478

2016
 
 
13,827

Thereafter
 
 
44,808

Total
 
$
132,064


Minimum future base rentals do not include amounts which may be received from certain tenants based upon a percentage of their gross sales or as reimbursement of real estate taxes and property operating expenses. Minimum rents on the statements of revenues and certain expenses contain straight-line adjustments which caused rental revenue to increase by $185 and $920 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, respectively. No single tenant accounted for more than 10.0% of rental income during the three months ended March 31, 2012 or the year ended December 31, 2011, respectively.
