economic performance. On March&nbsp;31, 2006, we owned 70 properties, consisting of 21 office buildings, 7 medical office buildings, 12 retail shopping centers, 9 multifamily buildings and 21 industrial/flex properties, encompassing in the aggregate

first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action and three years from the date on which payment is made for the Notes. The right of action for rescission is exercisable not later than 180 days from the date on which payment is
