Heads or Tails?

I just read a short 8-K from Hines Global REIT.  It bought a 100% leased office building in Canton, Massachusetts from another non-traded REIT,  Inland American REIT, for $57 million.  Hines estimates a first year cap rate of 9.08% on the acquisition.  A cap rate this high would seem to indicate a good price for Hines Global, but I'd like to know Inland American's side of the story.
