On May 17, 2012, Behringer Harvard Mountain Village, LLC (“Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Behringer Harvard Short-Term Opportunity Fund I LP (which may be referred to herein as the “Registrant,” “we,” “our” or “us”), entered into a Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure Agreement (the “DIL Agreement”) with Credit Union Liquidity Services, LLC (the “Lender”) effective May 8, 2012, whereby the Borrower transferred ownership, of the 23-unit condominium property in Telluride, Colorado (“Cassidy Ridge”) to the Lender, and subject to certain contingencies, resulted in full settlement of the outstanding debt to the Lender. On September 29, 2006 the Borrower entered into a loan agreement with the Lender to borrow a total principal amount of up to $27.7 million to construct Cassidy Ridge. The outstanding principal balance, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, was due and payable on the maturity date of October 1, 2011. The loan, which was recourse to us, had an outstanding principal balance of approximately $27.7 million at May 17, 2012.
