Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Entry into Agreement to Sell Property
On February 8, 2019, a purchase and sale contract (the “Purchase Agreement”) was entered into between DPF 655 Montgomery LP, a subsidiary of Black Creek Diversified Property Fund Inc. (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) and BCAL 655 Montgomery Property LLC (the “Purchaser”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to sell a 263,000 square foot office property in San Francisco, California (referred to as “655 Montgomery”) to the Purchaser, an unrelated third party, for a gross sales price of approximately $191.5 million. As of December 31, 2018, 655 Montgomery was approximately 89.1% leased with a weighted-average remaining lease term of approximately 6.1 years based on annualized base rent.
655 Montgomery is encumbered by a mortgage note and a mezzanine loan secured by a pledge of ownership interests in DPF 655 Montgomery LP, which we expect to prepay at par upon the closing of this transaction. As of December 31, 2018, the mortgage note and mezzanine loan had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of approximately $98.6 million with a weighted-average variable interest rate of 5.25% and both mature in September 2020.
The closing of this transaction is subject to various contingencies, and we cannot provide assurance whether or when this transaction will occur. The Purchaser’s due diligence period expired February 8, 2019. The Purchaser has deposited $5.0 million into escrow. The current outside closing date is May 6, 2019, although such closing may occur earlier upon satisfaction of certain conditions.
