Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania.  On the Transaction Date, Kraft entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with ALCS, pursuant to which Kraft purchased certain real estate located in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania (the “Wilkes Barre Real Property”) from ALCS.  In addition, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, ALCS sold to Kraft, and Kraft purchased from ALCS, certain personal property located on the Wilkes Barre Real Property. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Kraft paid to ALCS $9.3 million in consideration for the acquisition of the Wilkes Barre Real Property and the related personal property.
