Whitestone REIT Acquires The Pinnacle of Scottsdale for $29 Million
100% Leased Center Purchase Marks Total of $72 Million in Phoenix Acquisitions since September 2010
Houston, Texas, December 22, 2011 - Whitestone REIT (NYSE-AMEX: WSR - "Whitestone"), a fully integrated real estate company that owns, operates and re-develops Community Centered PropertiesTM, which are visibly located properties in established or developing culturally diverse neighborhoods, announced today that it has closed on the purchase of Phase I of Pinnacle of Scottsdale, a 113,108 square foot 100% leased Class A Community Center in North Scottsdale, for $29 million. Phase I is adjacent to 4.45 acres of developed land with approximately 400 linear feet of frontage on Scottsdale Road and the potential for additional retail development.
Whitestone now owns Community Centers at the significant "four corners" of the North Scottsdale trade area, including Terravita (north west), Pima Norte (north east), The Citadel (south east), and Pinnacle of Scottsdale (south west), in addition to Desert Canyon, also in North Scottsdale in the McDowell Mountain area. All purchases were originated on an off-market basis, priced at a discount to replacement cost, and have a "value-add" component. Each of these Community Centers are located at high traffic intersections in stabilized neighborhoods, and provide essential services to support local communities including Terravita, McDowell Mountain Ranch, Grayhawk, DC Ranch, Silverleaf, Estancia, Desert Highlands, and Troon North Villages.
"We are pleased to announce our seventh acquisition since September 2010, bringing our total to eight properties in the greater Phoenix market. We believe that the North Scottsdale market, which is showing signs of recovery from the recession, is a great hedge against inflation, particularly the purchases we have made at significantly discounted prices for properties with in-place cash flow. Our research and analysis of the respective five mile radius' of each property supports our Community Centered PropertyTM business model and indicates opportunities for us to position tenants at multiple locations in the trade area", said James C. Mastandrea, Whitestone's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Whitestone continues to seek Community Center acquisition opportunities in the Phoenix metro area and also is working with sellers who may benefit from a tax efficient transaction in which operating partnership units are exchanged".
About The Pinnacle of Scottsdale
The Pinnacle of Scottsdale is uniquely located on the northeast corner of the major intersection of Scottsdale Road at Pinnacle Peak Road, with a traffic count of over 55,000 cars per day. The State of Arizona owns the property directly west of the Community Center, and a new luxury multi-family housing development is planned to be constructed on the land just south, at Silverstone.1 The tenant mix at The Pinnacle of Scottsdale, which is 100% leased, includes Safeway®, Ace® Hardware, Shell® Oil, Hornacheck's House of Golf, Jade Palace, Jalapeno Inferno (privately owned restaurant, recognized by Phoenix Times Magazine Best of Phoenix Awards), SubwayTM, Stag Tobacconist, Starbucks© Coffee, Pinnacle Peak Dentistry, and a variety of other convenience service providers.
Whitestone REIT (NYSE-AMEX:WSR) Acquired The Pinnacle of Scottsdale for $29 Million - The 100% Leased Center is The Company's Seventh Acquisition since September 2010. The 113,108 square foot Class A Community Center serves retail goods and services to the surrounding community that includes the most affluent zip code in Arizona and some of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Phoenix. The 100% leased Center, strategically located at the high visibility intersection of North Scottsdale Road and Pinnacle Peak Road, features classic Spanish Colonial architecture and landscaped pedestrian-friendly walkways. The retail mix includes Safeway®, Ace Hardware®, Starbucks®, and Hornachek's House of Golf in addition to several small space restaurants and service oriented tenants. www.whitestonereit.com

URSTADT BIDDLE PROPERTIES INC. ACQUIRES 50% INTEREST IN WALMART-ANCHORED SHOPPING CENTER AND ADJACENT RETAIL PROPERTY ON LONG ISLAND, IN RIVERHEAD, NEW YORK
Greenwich, CT - February 21, 2014 - Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc. (NYSE: UBA and UBP) announced today that it acquired, through two wholly-owned subsidiaries, 50% tenancy-in-common interests in two adjacent retail properties in Suffolk County, Long Island from New Jersey
-
based developer, Lerner Properties LLC. The first property is Gateway Plaza, a 20+ acre parcel with a 194,309 sf shopping center anchored by a brand-new 167,309 square foot Walmart store and a nearly completed 27,000 square foot freestanding retail building. UBP's 50% interest in Gateway Plaza was purchased for $12.4 million, and UBP and Lerner Properties refinanced the property at closing with a $14,000,000 first mortgage from Security Life of Denver Insurance Company. Gateway Plaza is located at the intersection of Old Country Road (a/k/a Route 58) and Kroemer Avenue in Riverhead, NY (Suffolk County) and has the unique distinction of being located directly across the road from, and sharing a traffic light with, Tanger Outlet Center. Tanger Outlet Center is one of the country's most successful outlet centers and contains over 165 brand name outlet stores. The Riverhead shopping area is located approximately 70 miles east of midtown Manhattan at the terminus of the Long Island Expressway, and is the regional shopping area for Long Island's North and South Forks. Shoppers flock to Riverhead from all of eastern Long Island.
The second property is Applebee's Plaza, a 2 acre parcel containing an existing 5,363 square foot Applebee's restaurant and an undeveloped pad site with a buildable allowance of 4,500 square feet. UBP's 50% interest in Applebee's Plaza was purchased for $1.7 million, and the property is subject to existing mortgage financing in the amount of $1,170,000, which matures in January, 2019. Applebee's has been operating a very successful store at this location since 2000 and its performance should further improve as a result of the recent opening of Walmart.
Willing Biddle, CEO of Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc., said, "We are very happy to have been able to invest in these very well-located regional retail properties and to be co-owners with Lerner Properties. There is a great deal of interest from prospective tenants in the 27,000 sf building under construction next to Walmart, and we and our co-owner expect to have it leased within six months. We also are working to lease the available pad next to Applebee's and hope to have a deal completed in the near future. We think that these acquisitions will provide a beachhead for more opportunities for our company in the Long Island market".
Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc. is a self-administered equity real estate investment trust, which owns or has equity interests in 67 properties containing approximately 5.0 million square feet of space. Listed on the New York Stock Exchange since 1970, it provides investors with a means of participating in ownership of income-producing properties.

(TSX, NYSE: BTE)) for $311 million, as adjusted for certain customary adjustments. The acquisition was financed with proceeds from a combination of the Company's recently closed senior notes and common stock offerings.
With this closing, the Williston Basin Division now has an approximate 47.5% working interest in the acquired properties. Samson Resources Company is the current operator of the properties, and pursuant to the Joint Operating Agreement, has the option under an existing area of mutual interest provision, to participate in the acquisition, which it may choose to exercise within a specified period of time subsequent to closing.
