a deal

Proceeds from the sale will be used to pay a $102.9-million term loan on Layton Hills Mall, in Layton, UT. CBL acquired that 672,000-sf center in November.

The centers sold to Galileo are Wilkes-Barre (PA) Township Marketplace; Springdale Center in Mobile, AL; Fashion Square in Orange Park, FL; Cobblestone Village at Royal Palm in West Palm Beach, FL; and Chicopee Marketplace in Chicopee, MA. The Pennsylvania and Alabama properties were priced at $63 million and are part of the total sale price of $106.5 million.

The deal marks the end of CBL's relationship with Galileo. Galileo America LLC was formed in late 2003 by CBL and Galileo America Inc., a US-based REIT owned by Galileo Shopping America Trust, an Australian shopping-center owner. At that time, CBL contributed 90% of its ownership interest in 51 power and community centers to the trust in a deal valued at about $516 million.
