Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
The information required in Item 1.01 is included in Item 2.01 below and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On January 15, 2012, Phillips Edison – ARC Shopping Center REIT Inc. (the “Company”), through a wholly-owned subsidiary, purchased a portfolio consisting of six shopping centers containing approximately 507,668 total rentable square feet located on a total of approximately 66.3 acres of land in the Atlanta, Georgia area (the “Atlanta Portfolio”) for approximately $60.5 million, exclusive of closing costs. The individual properties in the Atlanta Portfolio are located in: Acworth, Georgia; Ellenwood, Georgia; Alpharetta, Georgia; Buford, Georgia; Mableton, Georgia; and McDonough, Georgia. The Company funded the purchase price with proceeds from a revolving credit facility with KeyBank National Association and proceeds from its initial public offering. The Atlanta Portfolio was purchased from Equity One, Inc., a Maryland corporation, which is not affiliated with the Company, its advisor or its sub-advisor.
The Atlanta Portfolio is 90.1% leased to 75 tenants, including five Kroger grocery stores and one Publix grocery store, which occupy approximately 59.5% and 7.7%, respectively, of the total rentable square feet of the entire Atlanta Portfolio.
Based on the current condition of the properties in the Atlanta Portfolio, the Company does not believe that it will be necessary to make significant renovations to the properties. The Company’s management believes the properties in the Atlanta Portfolio are all adequately insured.
Item 8.01. Other Events
On January 22, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing acquisition of the Atlanta Portfolio.
