Item 8.01. 

Other Events.

 

As previously reported, a judgment of foreclosure was granted against PDL, Inc. & Associates, Limited Co-Partnership against our Hato Rey property in Puerto Rico. On September 23, 2013, U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, as successor-in-interest to Bank of America, National Association, as trustee for the Registered Holders of GS Mortgage Securities Corporation II, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 1998-C1, acting by and through Berkadia Commercial Mortgage LLC in its capacity as special servicer pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement dated October 11, 1998 took possession of the Hato Rey property pursuant to the foreclosure judgment. We have been advised that the sale price was less than the amount of the judgment. We have reported the Hato Rey property since March 31, 2012 as a discontinued operation.

 

The claims brought in the foreclosure action against PDL, Inc., the Company, Lester Cohen and F.D. Rich Company of Puerto Rico, Inc., with liability among them to be allocated 1%, 45%, 9% and 45%, respectively, under the terms of certain guarantees issued by them in connection with the mortgage loans, for alleged physical waste to the Property and, the costs of certain repairs to the property of not less than $1,100,000 and the reasonable legal costs and expenses in connection with the enforcement of the loan documents remain outstanding.  The lender has not asserted any claims against the Company other than those asserted under the guarantees as referenced above. The Company believes that the likelihood that the Company will be held liable for the claims asserted under the guarantees is remote.
