Bentley Forbes

BentleyForbes is one of the nation’s fastest growing, privately-held commercial real estate investment companies. The Company is focused on the acquisition, ownership and management of trophy Class A office buildings, luxury resort and hotel properties and select high-quality industrial and retail facilities in major markets throughout the United States.

The Company was founded in 1993 by Fred Wehba, Sr. along with other members of the family. The Wehba family has been involved in the acquisition, development, ownership and management of commercial real estate for over 25 years.

BentleyForbes actively invests in multi-tenant commercial real estate properties, focusing on acquiring signature, Class A trophy assets which have a high residual real estate value due to their locations in major MSAs and top submarkets nationally. In its acquisitions, the Company places a primary focus on the underlying submarket, as opposed to a macro-market, believing that real estate is all about a specific location and its fundamentals. In addition to its investment in multi-tenant commercial real estate properties, the Company is also internationally recognized for its expertise in the acquisition and management of single-tenant, sale-leaseback and net lease properties.

During the past three years, BentleyForbes has successfully completed the purchase of several Class A office and hospitality properties in diverse markets, summarized as follows:

Property	Location	Building Size - Square Feet
Prudential Plaza	Chicago, Illinois	2,200,000'
Bank of America Plaza	Atlanta, Georgia	1,288,000'
Las Olas Centre	Ft. Lauderdale, Florida	469,000'
Preston Commons	Dallas, Texas	419,000'
Sterling Plaza	Dallas, Texas	303,000'
Watergate	Washington, D.C.	261,000'
Park Center	Dallas, Texas	236,000'
AmeriCredit	Arlington, Texas	237,000'
Four Seasons Resort and Golf Club	Irving, Texas	431 rooms; 2 PGA golf courses Home of the EDS Byron Nelson Championship

Generally, the Company acquires commercial real estate properties for an intermediate holding period, thereby providing the Company with a stable revenue stream. Selectively, the Company sells properties when those assets are not deemed to be consistent with its longer-term ownership goals.

BentleyForbes is staffed by a team of senior executives and industry professionals with expertise in commercial real estate acquisitions, asset management, finance, investment banking, corporate operations, transaction due diligence and legal. The strategic oversight of the Company is directed by its Executive Committee, which includes the founders, C. Frederick Wehba, Sr., Chairman; C. Frederick Wehba II, Vice Chairman, other members of the Wehba family, Chad Wehba, Partner, and Cyle Wehba, Partner as well as David W. Cobb, President & CEO and Robert E. Dezzutti, Chief Operating Officer. The Executive Committee works directly to develop strategies and investment programs, implemented by the Company’s senior executives under the oversight of Mr. Cobb, who is directly responsible for the Company’s day-to-day operations and investment transactions.

BentleyForbes has substantial access to capital for investment in commercial real estate properties. One of the Company’s greatest strengths is its ability to make a quick decision on an investment opportunity; this is possible because the Company is privately owned and its family controlled Executive Committee is able to act much more quickly than can a typical public company.

The Company is headquartered in Los Angeles (Century City), California and also operates regional offices in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Ft. Lauderdale and Washington, D.C.
