The One Giralda Farms acquisition follows Reckson's recent acquisition of Three Giralda Farms, a 141,000 s/f, class A office building acquired for a total anticipated investment of approximately $31 million. Within two months after acquiring Three Giralda Farms, the company successfully signed a long-term lease with Daiichi Pharmaceutical Corporation to occupy the entire building.

Reckson also owns 154 acres of land at the Giralda Farms Corporate Campus with development rights for approximately 1.1 million s/f, with 436,000 s/f already fully designed and approved for construction.

Scott Rechler, Reckson's president and chief executive officer, stated, "We are proud to announce yet another important acquisition in our New Jersey division.

"One Giralda Farms reflects our focus on acquiring core class A office properties that leverage our market franchise power. This acquisition demonstrates our team's ability to source off-market opportunities that offer excellent market fundamentals and long-term growth potential."

Reckson is purchasing One Giralda Farms at an approximate 25% discount to replacement cost on a fully invested basis and expects to generate stabilized net operating income Operating Income
