PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- On May 10, 2013, the board of directors of Resource Real Estate Opportunity REIT (the "Company") authorized cash distributions in the amount of $0.033 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 31, 2013 and June 28, 2013. If distributions in this amount are paid for 12 consecutive months, they would equal a 4.0 percent annualized rate based on a purchase price of $10.00 per share. The Company expects to pay these distributions on June 3, 2013 and July 1, 2013, respectively. These distributions will be paid in cash or, for investors enrolled in the Company's distribution reinvestment plan, reinvested in additional shares of common stock. The amount of these distributions is an increase over the distributions of $0.0025 per share of common stock paid in previous months.

Additionally, on May 10, 2013, the Company's board of directors authorized a stock distribution of 0.00585 shares of common stock, or 0.585 percent of each outstanding share of common stock to the stockholders of record at the close of business on June 28, 2013. This stock distribution is to be issued on July 15, 2013.


For stockholders of record on each of the distribution record dates in the first six months of 2013, the combination of cash and stock distributions declared by the Company during the first six months of 2013 equates to a 6.0 percent annualized rate based on a purchase price of $10.00 per share.
