Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 8, 2014, GTJ REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“REIT”) and GTJ Realty, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“UPREIT” and, together with REIT, the “Guarantors”), entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Capital One, N.A. (the “Lender”). The Loan Agreement contemplated a $45 million senior revolving credit facility, secured by certain properties located in New York, NY. The closing of the facility took place on April 8, 2014 and the registrant filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the terms of the foregoing transaction which disclosures are incorporated by reference herein.
On November 20, 2014, the above-referenced parties executed an amendment to the Loan Agreement to increase the credit facility from $45 million to $60 million. The additional credit facility extension was underwritten by People's United Bank. The terms and provisions of the extension are substantially the same as the one under the original credit facility. The parties also entered into several side agreements and instruments to facilitate the transactions contemplated under the foregoing amendment.
The intended uses of the additional proceeds of this facility under the extension include funding of the acquisitions of additional assets as well as working capital expenditures.
The above-referenced agreements contain representations and warranties by each of the parties thereto. These representations and warranties have been made solely for the benefit of the other parties to such agreements and (i) should not be treated as statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating the risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate; (ii) may have been qualified in the agreements by disclosures that were made to the other party in connection with the negotiation of the agreements; (iii) may apply contract standards of “materiality” that are different from “materiality” under the applicable securities laws; and (iv) were made only as of the date of such agreements or such other date or dates as may be specified in the agreements.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
