NEW YORK, Oct. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Regency Affiliates, Inc. (OTC Pink: RAFI) ("Regency") announced that Security Land and Development Company Limited Partnership received a notice under GSA's lease for the Security West building to terminate the lease and vacate the building effective November 1, 2023.

Management Comments

"While the termination notice from GSA creates uncertainty about Regency's investment in Security West, we have several reasons to be optimistic about this investment. We have about two years to evaluate alternative uses for the facility before GSA vacates the building. At that time, management estimates that the facility will be almost debt free which provides significant financial flexibility. Security West's manager has expressed confidence that, based on current markets conditions and other factors, there should be demand for Security West's space either from other government departments represented by GSA or from private sector tenants or investors. Moreover, a new long-term tenant could facilitate obtaining new financing on the facility. We will keep our shareholders updated about future developments at Security West," commented Laurence Levy, Chairman, CEO and CFO of Regency.
