The proceeds of the loan will initially be used to reduce outstanding indebtedness on its unsecured line of credit. The collateral for this loan consists of six properties, which were previously part of our unencumbered assets. As of June 30, 2009, our unencumbered net operating income approximated 60.8 percent of our total net operating income.

Also, as part of the ongoing execution of Alexandria's multi-faceted capital plan, Alexandria reported the identification of four properties for sale aggregating approximately 269,000 rentable square feet, including several properties that are under negotiation for sale.
