Tuesday, March 01, 2005 - CARLSBAD, CA-With land increasingly scarce in the San Diego area, developers are searching throughout the region and often becoming more creative in finding developable land. Such is the case with land acquired by St. Croix Capital and its subsidiary, Kelly Capital Corp. The company landed 4.6 acres of land on Faraday Avenue within the Carlsbad Research Center.

Kelly Capital paid $3.7 million to EQBP-1, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Co., for the land. Plans at the site call for a nine-building office/R&D project that will be called Faraday Spectrum. Buildings will range in size from 3,000 sf to roughly 14,000 sf. The total sf at build-out on the site was not available.

TSA Contracting is overseeing the construction of the project. Geoff Sherman has joined the company as a senior project manager for the development. Estimated completion for development the project is January 2006 and St. Croix is currently accepting offers to purchase and lease the buildings. Dennis Visser, SIOR, and Mark Emerick of Grubb & Ellis|BRE Commercial represented both parties on the transaction and are marketing the project.

For St. Croix Capital, the Faraday Spectrum project marks the company's sixth development in the area. The company has also developed the Canyon Ridge Business Park, Carlsbad Crossroads I and II and several user build-to-suits. Among the corporate clients in the area are Callaway Golf, Invitrogen, Taylor Made, Viasat and Cancer Vax.

CALIF. CARLSBAD, CALIF., April 4, 2005 – SARES•REGIS Group, a leading West Coast real estate developer is pleased to announce it has sold its first land parcel at Bressi Ranch Corporate Center in Carlsbad, Calif. to Bressi Spectrum, LLC, an affiliate of Kelly Capital Group in conjunction with St. Croix Capital Corporation for an undisclosed amount. The land parcel is approximately nine acres and is located at the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and Melrose Drive.

Bressi Ranch Corporate Center is a 132-acre, campus-style, mixed-use business park that was purchased last year by SARES•REGIS Group for the development of office, flex, R&D and light industrial projects and offers lots for sale or build-to-suits for sale or lease. The master-planned development remains one of the last large, contiguous parcels of developable land in San Diego County with lot sizes ranging from 1.5 acres to 40 acres, some with ocean views. Upon completion, the project will accommodate up to 2.1 million square feet of development.

“We are proud to welcome Kelly Capital Group to Bressi Ranch Corporate Center,” said Bruce Bearer, senior vice president at SARES•REGIS Group. “Carlsbad has been one of the top performing cities in San Diego County for attracting businesses, and Bressi Ranch Corporate Center offers a premier location for companies looking to relocate or expand.”

Lannie Allee, Rick Sparks, Roger Carlson and Matt Strockis of CB Richard Ellis are responsible for the marketing of Bressi Ranch Corporate Center for SARES•REGIS Group and represented both the buyer and seller in this transaction.

“The opportunity to be a part of a high-end business park for both large and small users has generated interest from a diverse group of companies,” said Lannie Allee of CB Richard Ellis. According to the Allee, there has been a significant amount of activity on the project and a number of the 39 remaining land parcels are either in escrow or have letters of intent.

Kelly Capital Group in conjunction with St. Croix Capital Corporation plans to develop 15 small, for-sale office buildings on the property, ranging in size from 5,700 square feet to 15,000 square feet.
