The properties are Westech 360, Park Centre and Great Hills Plaza, all of which were unencumbered by debt. The sales price for the properties was $76.0 million, which after closing adjustments and prorations, resulted in net proceeds to TPG/CalSTRS Austin, LLC of $73.0 million. Thomas Properties Group’s share of the net proceeds is $24.3 million.

James A. Thomas, Chairman and CEO noted, "The closing of this transaction is the culmination of our original plan for the 10 building Austin portfolio, which included our disposition of the suburban properties, allowing us to concentrate on the ownership and operation of the five Class A high rise buildings in downtown Austin. This sale is also a further step in completing our corporate strategic plan of generating cash from the sale of non-core operating assets that have achieved their maximum value in our portfolio for reinvestment in first class office buildings that generate recurring cash flow, with our focus on markets in western US cities.”
