Item 2.01              Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On August 6, 2014, Behringer Harvard Mockingbird Commons, LLC, a 70% owned subsidiary of Behringer Harvard Short-Term Liquidating Trust (which may be referred to as the “Registrant”, “we”, “our”, or “us”), sold a 198 room hotel and retail project located in Dallas, Texas (“Hotel Palomar”) to an unaffiliated buyer. The contract sales price for the Hotel Palomar was $48 million, exclusive of closing costs. A portion of the proceeds was used to pay off existing indebtedness. As a result of the sale we have two remaining investments: five acres of land and a back-end promoted interest in a previously sold asset. We continue to work towards the liquidation of the trust in an orderly and expeditious manner.
