On June 1, 2016, the Company completed the disposition of One Bay Plaza, a 195,739-square-foot office tower located at 1350 Bayshore Highway in Burlingame, California, for approximately $53.4 million (before credits, prorations and closing costs).

The property is subject to a ground lease. The Company intends to lease up and renovate the property, which has served as its corporate headquarters for the past six years.
