Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On February 25, 2016, we purchased 252,000 shares of beneficial interest of BRT for $1,577,518, representing the remaining number of shares we were permitted to purchase pursuant to a share repurchase program approved by our board of trustees in December 2014. Contemporaneously with our purchase, Gould Investors L.P., our affiliate, purchased 76,684 shares for $480,042. The 328,684 shares purchased were purchased from one shareholder and its affiliates. We anticipate that these transactions will settle in accordance with customary market procedures.
