Elston Plaza Loan Terms
On June 11, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), RPT Elston Plaza, LLC (“RPT Elston Plaza”), a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of RREEF Property Trust, Inc. (the “Company”), as borrower, entered into a mortgage and security agreement and a promissory note, providing for a $17.6 million secured, non-recourse loan (the “Loan”) with State Farm Life Insurance Company (“State Farm”), which is not affiliated with the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates.
The Loan is secured by Elston Plaza, which is comprised of a 92,806 square foot retail property on a 5.80 acre site, located in Chicago, Illinois (the “Property”). The Company acquired the Property for a gross purchase price of $28.35 million on December 31, 2018, exclusive of closing costs, and owns it through RPT Elston Plaza. The Property contains eleven tenants occupying 95.5% of the building. Also on June 11, 2019 and in connection with the Loan, RPT Elston Plaza executed an environmental indemnification agreement (the “Agreement”) to and for the benefit of State Farm, which provides for certain indemnifications if Hazardous Materials (as defined in the Agreement) are found or produced at the Property or the Property is not otherwise kept in material compliance with current environmental laws and regulations with respect to Hazardous Materials.
The interest rate for the Loan is fixed at 3.89% with interest-only payments for the first 24 months of the term, followed by payments including interest and principal based on a 30-year amortization schedule for the remainder of the seven year term. The maturity date of the Loan is July 1, 2026 with no extension options. The Loan permits voluntary prepayment of the full amount of the Loan (a) from month 24 through 48, subject to a prepayment premium equal to the greater of 1% of the principal balance or a yield maintenance calculation, (b) from month 49 through 60, subject to a prepayment premium of 1% of the principal balance, or (c) at par during the last 24 months of the term. Additionally, the Loan contains a one-time option to be assumed by a new borrower subject to satisfaction, in State Farm’s sole discretion, of specified conditions and payment of a fee equal to 1.0% of the outstanding balance of the Loan.
Fees
In connection with the Loan, RPT Elston Plaza paid loan financing costs of approximately $185,000, comprised of lender fees, legal costs and other customary closing costs.
Use of Proceeds
Proceeds of $17.6 million under the Loan were applied to the Company’s existing secured $100.0 million line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Prior to closing of the Loan, the Property served as additional collateral under the line of credit.
The foregoing descriptions of the mortgage and security agreement, the promissory note and the environmental indemnification agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of these agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
