On June 17, 2016, Tier Operating Partnership LP (“Tier OP”), the operating partnership of TIER REIT, Inc.

The Company is entitled to an additional payment of up to $12.5 million subject to future performance of the property. The net proceeds from the sale will be used to repay borrowings outstanding on the revolving portion of our credit facility and a near-term maturing property mortgage loan.
