<p><span class="xn-location"><span><span>SAN FRANCISCO</span></span></span>, <span class="xn-chron">April 29, 2013</span> /PRNewswire/ &#8211; LessThan6Percent (<a href="http://www.lessthan6percent.com/" target="_blank">http://www.lessthan6percent.com</a>), the online marketplace where home sellers can compare commissions and marketing plans from local real estate agents, is exiting its beta launch in the <span class="xn-location"><span><span>San Francisco Bay Area</span></span></span> and expanding into <span class="xn-location"><span><span>Southern California</span></span></span>. Founded in late 2012 by serial entrepreneur Simon Ru, LessThan6Percent provides home sellers a convenient platform to streamline the process of finding the best agents to represent their home. </p>
<p>&#8220;The problem home sellers face is that there are thousands of agents in any given market,&#8221; says Ru. &#8220;It is difficult for home sellers to compare agents to find the best match. They don&#8217;t know what questions to ask, what to look for in a marketing proposal, or how to start the awkward conversation of negotiating services  commissions.&#8221; This is where LessThan6Percent steps in.</p>
<p>LessThan6Percent differs from traditional agent-matching service such as Trulia (<a href="http://www.trulia.com/" target="_blank">http://www.trulia.com/</a>) and Zillow (<a href="http://www.zillow.com/" target="_blank">http://www.zillow.com</a>) by matching sellers to proposals submitted by agents rather than agents&#8217; profiles. Instead of directing sellers to call agents&#8217; numbers on a directory, LessThan6Percent transforms the matching process by having agents compete for sellers&#8217; business. With a click of a button, home sellers would know exactly what services they are going to receive and how much they would cost. This level of transparency is unparalleled in the real estate industry.  </p>
<p><b>LessThan6Percent Benefits Home Sellers</b></p>
<p>When using LessThan6Percent, sellers are able to request proposals anonymously and review profiles that showcase agents&#8217; marketing brochures, past transactions and social network reviews. A typical request will receive five proposals within two business days. Each proposal is personalized and includes answers to all the pertinent questions that a seller would typically ask when interviewing agents.  Sellers will be able to compare commission quotes, length of contract, and services such as number of open houses, staging, marketing and virtual tours that the agents are willing to offer. </p>
<p>Beyond quantitative metrics and stats, agents are also given the opportunity to provide a customized response on how they can help the seller obtain a higher price and how they are the best agent for the seller and the property.  This information adds depth to an agent&#8217;s profile and helps the seller decide on the appropriate agents to interview and hire. </p>
<p>&#8220;When agents compete for your business, the opportunity to get a competitive commission quote comes naturally,&#8221; says Ru. On top of the commission savings, LessThan6Percent also offers home sellers a <span class="xn-money">$500</span> bonus rebate at close of escrow.    </p>
<p><b>LessThan6Percent Also Benefits Agents</b></p>
<p>While home sellers enjoy convenience, selection and savings when using LessThan6Percent, real estate agents will enjoy a new avenue to connect with sellers they would not have met otherwise. By gathering and analyzing massive amounts of data from credit bureaus and third-party data sources, LessThan6Percent identifies potential home sellers and brings them to the site. LessThan6Percent&#8217;s team interviews and identifies the needs of each seller so that agents can create tailor-made proposals. Because the proposals and commission quotes are personalized and only viewable by the seller, LessThan6Percent provides a safe platform for full-service agents to compete with discount brokerages such as Redfin (<a href="http://www.redfin.com/" target="_blank">http://www.redfin.com/</a>) in a way that was not previously available.  </p>
<p>Since piloting the beta in <span class="xn-chron">February 2013</span>, LessThan6Percent has established partnerships with over 300 real estate agents in the <span class="xn-location"><span><span>San Francisco Bay Area</span></span></span>. Several of its partner agents are ranked in the Wall Street Journal as among the top 100 agents in the U.S.</p>
<p><b>About LessThan6Percent</b><br />Founded in <span class="xn-chron">November 2012</span> by serial entrepreneur Simon Ru and led by a team that has helped grow companies like EBay (<a href="http://www.ebay.com/" target="_blank">http://www.ebay.com/</a>) and Redfin, LessThan6Percent™ is a marketplace where home sellers can compare commission quotes and listing proposals from local real estate agents.

<p>VALLEJO (KPIX 5) – Earlier this month, KPIX 5 reported about leaders of a Bay Area church embroiled in an alleged illegal real estate scheme. The victims: all parishioners, who said they were brainwashed into investing their life savings.</p>
<p>Since the story aired, we heard from other former members, some who admit they took part in the alleged scheme.</p>
<p>Robert Clark still remembers his first day at General Assembly’s former church in Berkeley 26 years ago. The building now belongs to a different congregation. “It was 1986 and I was 12 years old,” he said.</p>
<p>Clark said as General Assembly grew its leaders Lacy Hawkins and later on Michael Parker became more controlling. “It was a subtle stroking of your conscience until you bend,” said Clark.</p>
<p><strong>Related Coverage:</strong><br /><strong><a href="http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2013/03/01/ex-members-of-bay-area-church-recall-lives-under-total-control/">Ex-Members Recall Lives Under Total Control</a></strong><br /><strong> <a href="http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2013/02/28/bay-area-church-under-investigation-for-alleged-real-estate-scheme/">Church Leaders Under Investigation For Alleged Scheme</a></strong></p>
<p>Clark said he was talked into leaving his successful real estate job to use his skills in a new church venture, called Stellar Enterprise, run by Parker. “It was extremely secretive,” he said.</p>
<p>Meetings were held after church services and behind closed doors. Clark says his job was to buy and flip properties.</p>
<p>The money came from hundreds of parishioners, who mortgaged homes and drained retirement accounts on the promise of generous returns and even salvation.</p>
<p><!-- Start WN element 1: "8629541" in "" --></p>
<p><!-- End WN element: "8629541" in "" -->
<p>Clark admits at first, he profited. “I began to make money, and lots of money,” he said.</p>
<p>But he believes when Parker realized how much the commissions were, he changed the rules and put Clark on salary. “I went from receiving an average of $20,000 a month in commissions to $1,600 every two weeks, in the form of a paycheck,” he said.</p>
<p>Clark admits he was suspicious but kept quiet. Other employees also grew suspicious.</p>
<p>“The books were only open to a select group,” said Stanley White, also a former church member.</p>
<p>White was hired to pump up business in the congregation. But White said even he could never get details on investment properties, such as the so-called Woodlands of Ascension project in Louisiana. “It was nothing saying ok here is the address you can take a look at it,” he said.</p>
<p>According to White, construction work on the mystery development never started. In an earlier interview with KPIX 5, church elder and stellar CEO Michael Parker said, “Hurricane Katrina happened.”</p>
<p>But the Army Corps of Engineers said part of the Louisiana property was a swamp even before Katrina. Parker said he paid close to $3 million for the property.</p>
<p>Former employees said that failed investment was Stellar’s last. In 2006, the company suddenly shut down, leaving investors with nothing.</p>
<p>“Eventually the gimmick of shuffling real estate and receiving new investments to pay your old investments, the game stops,” said Clark.</p>
<p>He left General Assembly in 2007. “I felt angry, I felt unclean,” he said.</p>
<p>In a twist of fate, Clark has discovered he is a victim as well. He owes close to $1 million in taxes on real estate commissions that he said church leaders pocketed in his name.</p>
<p>“I really feel taken,” he said.</p>
<p>Attorneys for the church leaders confirm they switched Robert Clark from getting real estate commissions to getting a salary, but they claim he was being paid at competitive rates.</p>
<p>Whatever their explanations, state investigators have been looking into their finances: A judge has issued a ruling on the case and we could hear the results any day now.</p>
<p>Sources also told KPIX 5 the state Attorney General is also looking at possible criminal violations, something the AG’s office has neither confirmed nor denied.</p>

                </span><br />
                </span><br />
 today reported<br />
      financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2012, with a net<br />
      loss available to common stockholders of $800,000, or $0.02 per share,<br />
      compared to a net loss available to common stockholders of $317,000, or<br />
      $0.01 per share, in the second quarter of 2011. Revenues from continuing<br />
      operations in the second quarter totaled $103.9 million, up from $88.4<br />
      million in the prior year&#8217;s second quarter. Funds from operations<br />
      (FFO) for the period totaled $39.5 million, or $0.55 per share, compared<br />
      to $31.6 million, or $0.52 per share, in the year-earlier period.</p>
<p class="">
<p>Results for the second quarter of 2012 include $0.03 per share of<br />
      acquisition-related expenses, and the issuance of 575,689 common shares<br />
      under the company&#8217;s at-the-market stock offering program at a weighted<br />
      average price of $46.05, net of selling commissions.</p>
<p class="">
<p>For the first six months of 2012, KRC reported net income available to<br />
      common stockholders of $66.7 million, or $1.00 per share, compared to<br />
      $717,000, or less than $0.01 per share, in the first half of 2011.<br />
      Revenues from continuing operations in the six-month period totaled<br />
      $203.3 million, up from $172.2 million in the same period of 2011. FFO<br />
      for the first half of 2012 totaled $72.5 million, or $1.04 per share,<br />
      compared to $61.8 million, or $1.06 per share, in the first half of<br />
      2011. Net income for first half of 2012 included approximately $72.8<br />
      million of net gains from property dispositions. All per share amounts<br />
      in this report are presented on a diluted basis.</p>
<p class="">
<p>At June 30, 2012, the company&#8217;s stabilized portfolio totaled<br />
      approximately 15.6 million square feet and was 90.0% occupied. Occupancy<br />
      declined from 91.6% in the prior quarter primarily due to the lease<br />
      expirations of two tenants in San Diego as well as an industrial tenant<br />
      move-out in Orange County.</p>
<p class="">
<p>Since the end of the first quarter, KRC has completed the purchase of<br />
      five office buildings in four transactions aggregating approximately 1.2<br />
      million square feet of space for an aggregate purchase price of<br />
      approximately $410 million. The company also expanded its development<br />
      platform into Northern California with the purchase of 690 E.<br />
      Middlefield Road in Mountain View, California and 329 Brannan Street in<br />
      the SOMA submarket of San Francisco that upon completion are estimated<br />
      to have a total investment of approximately $285 million. A summary of<br />
      these transactions is as follows:</p>
<p class="">
<p>&#8211;<br />
        In May, the company purchased 690 E. Middlefield Road in Mountain<br />
        View, California for a purchase price of $74.5 million, where it will<br />
        develop, own and manage a 341,000 square-foot office campus under a<br />
        15-year lease for Synopsys, Inc. 				<span class="quotePeekContainer"><br />

                </span><br />
, the global leader in<br />
        electronic design automation. The Synopsys office campus represents<br />
        KRC&#8217;s first ground-up development project in the greater San Francisco<br />
        Bay Area and will have a projected total investment of approximately<br />
        $200 million. The fully entitled office project will include two<br />
        five-story Class A office buildings with state-of-the-art<br />
        infrastructure and amenities, designed and pre-registered to meet LEED<br />
        Gold certification requirements.</p>
<p class="">
<p>&#8211;<br />
        In June, the company acquired, in two separate transactions, a<br />
        three-building office campus located on the waterfront in the Lake<br />
        Union submarket of Seattle, Washington. The 420,000 square foot office<br />
        project was purchased for approximately $144.6 million and is<br />
        currently 99% leased. As part of the acquisition, the Company assumed<br />
        a mortgage loan of approximately $34.0 million that bears interest at<br />
        a rate of 5.09% and matures in August 2015.</p>
<p class="">
<p>&#8211;<br />
        In July, the company acquired Skyline Tower, a 417,000 square-foot,<br />
        24-story, Class A office building in Bellevue, Washington for<br />
        approximately $186 million. The LEED Silver certified property is<br />
        located two blocks from the company&#8217;s Key Center office building and<br />
        one block north of the Bellevue Transit Center. Skyline Tower is<br />
        currently 92% leased. As part of the acquisition, the company assumed<br />
        a mortgage loan of approximately $84 million that bears interest at a<br />
        rate of 6.37% and matures in April 2013.</p>
<p class="">
<p>&#8211;<br />
        In July, the company acquired 329 Brannan Street, an office<br />
        development opportunity in the heart of San Francisco&#8217;s SOMA district<br />
        for approximately $18.5 million. The site is zoned for approximately<br />
        5.0 FAR coverage and the company intends to build a six-level office<br />
        building designed to appeal to the area&#8217;s growing community of<br />
        technology and media companies.</p>
<p class="">
<p>&#8211;<br />
        In July, the company acquired Sunset Media Center, a 322,000 square<br />
        foot, 22-story, Class A office building located in the Hollywood<br />
        submarket of Los Angeles, California for a purchase price of<br />
        approximately $79 million. The building is currently 87% leased. As<br />
        part of the acquisition, the company issued approximately $5 million<br />
        in common limited partnership units of Kilroy Realty, L.P. and assumed<br />
        a mortgage loan of approximately $54 million that bears interest at a<br />
        rate of 5.23% and matures in January 2016.</p>
<p class="">
<p>In late June, KRC obtained a $97.0 million non-recourse mortgage secured<br />
      by two office projects. The mortgage has a term of 15 years, maturing on<br />
      July 1, 2027, and bears interest at a rate of 4.48%. The company used<br />
      the loan proceeds to pay down a portion of the outstanding balance on<br />
      its credit facility.</p>
<p class="">
<p>&#8220;KRC&#8217;s expanding operational footprint and management expertise in top<br />
      quality real estate markets up and down the West Coast continue to<br />
      generate significant opportunities for profitable growth and long-term<br />
      value creation,&#8221; said John Kilroy, Jr., the company&#8217;s president and<br />
      chief executive officer. &#8220;With the talent and market knowledge now<br />
      represented on our team, we&#8217;re well-positioned to compete for and<br />
      execute attractive acquisition and development projects from Seattle to<br />
      San Diego. Equally important, we will continue to pursue these<br />
      opportunities with financial discipline, recognizing that a strong<br />
      balance sheet is essential in what remains an uncertain economic<br />
      environment.&#8221;</p>

        (1)   The company calculates FFO in accordance with the White Paper on FFO
              approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT. The White Paper
              defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with
              GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, gains and
              losses from sales of depreciable real estate and impairment
              write-downs associated with depreciable real estate, plus real
              estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization
              of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate
              assets), and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and
              joint ventures.
              Management believes that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of the
              company's operating performance. The exclusion from FFO of gains and
              losses from the sale of operating real estate assets allows
              investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of
              the assets that form the core of the company's activity and assists
              in comparing those operating results between periods. Also, because
              FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting
              the operations of REITs, it facilitates comparisons of the company's
              operating performance to other REITs. However, other REITs may use
              different methodologies to calculate FFO, and accordingly, the
              company's FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs.
              Implicit in historical cost accounting for real estate assets in
              accordance with GAAP is the assumption that the value of real estate
              assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values
              have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many
              industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of
              operating results for real estate companies using historical cost
              accounting alone to be insufficient. Because FFO excludes
              depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, management
              believes that FFO along with the required GAAP presentations
              provides a more complete measurement of the company's performance
              relative to its competitors and a more appropriate basis on which to
              make decisions involving operating, financing and investing
              activities than the required GAAP presentations alone would provide.
              However, FFO should not be viewed as an alternative measure of the
              company's operating performance since it does not reflect either
              depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital
              expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating
              performance of the company's properties, which are significant
              economic costs and could materially impact the company's results
              from operations.
        (2)   Reported amounts are attributable to common stockholders and common
              unitholders.
