The quarterly report included management fee accrued for the period between Jan. 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020, despite the letter from tenants requesting to discontinue the rent commencing March 1.

 

On April 6, the fund manager received a notice from Eskan Development and Investment Company to waive its rental obligation from March 1, 2020.

 

The fund manager is still reviewing this request and is negotiating with the tenant, while adding that it will announce any developments in due course.

 

The fund manager expects negative impact on the fund due to these events, but it is currently difficult to determine the full impact on the fund's performance.
