Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
Management Commentary: The company issued a press release on June 17, 2013, regarding the transaction (attached as Exhibit 99.1). The filing notes that the full text of the Purchase and Lease Agreements will be filed as exhibits to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Risks and Contingencies: The filing does not explicitly detail specific risks beyond the standard obligations of a triple-net lease. The transaction creates a fixed long-term occupancy cost with annual escalations.
Unusual Items: The filing text does not provide clear values for revenue, profit, cash flow, or margins for the period, as this is a current report focused solely on the definitive agreement.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the exact closing date and receipt of the $158,625,566 proceeds in the upcoming Form 10-Q.

- Confirm the accounting treatment of the transaction (e.g., gain on sale recognition) in the next quarterly earnings report.
