Easterly Government Properties Acquires 99,246 SF Facility Adjacent to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Occupied by Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation

~ 100% net leased asset with annual rent escalations ~

Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (NYSE: DEA) (the “Company” or “Easterly”), a fully integrated real estate investment trust focused primarily on the acquisition, development and management of Class A commercial properties leased to the U.S. Government and its adjacent partners, announced today that it has acquired a 99,246 square foot facility 100% leased to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (NYSE: NOC, S&P: BBB+), a multinational aerospace and defense company and located in Beavercreek, Ohio, a suburb of Dayton (“Northrop Grumman - Dayton”).

The build-to-suit facility has been occupied by Northrop Grumman since 2012 and incorporates robust security enhancements, including secure design standards, access control systems, and security cameras, all of which aid in the confidentiality and integrity of the tenant’s operations.

“This acquisition is an important milestone for Easterly as we execute on our robust pipeline of mission critical real estate for high credit government adjacent companies,” said Darrell Crate, Easterly’s Chief Executive Officer. “With this announcement, Easterly enhances its definable edge in owning and developing specialized facilities which support our corporate tenants’ missions alongside their U.S. Government partners.”

The property sits adjacent to Gate 22B at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, the main access point for the Air Force Research Laboratory’s (AFRL) headquarters and the Air Force Institute of Technology. Dating back to its founding in 1917, the AFRL is the primary scientific research and development center for the Department of the Air Force and plays an integral role in leading the discovery, development, and integration of warfighting technologies for the country’s air, space, and cyberspace force. With a workforce of more than 12,500 employees across nine technology areas and 40 other operations across the globe, AFRL provides a diverse portfolio of science and technology ranging from fundamental to advanced research and technology development.

With this acquisition, Easterly owns, directly or through the Company’s joint venture, 95 properties totaling 9.3 million square feet.
