Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On July 30, 2021, HGIT Properties, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), a majority-owned subsidiary of Hines Global Income Trust, Inc. (“Hines Global” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), dated as of July 30, 2021 with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”), as Administrative Agent, and the lenders party thereto. This amendment to the original credit agreement dated November 15, 2019, and amended as of November 13, 2020, increases the total capacity from $425.0 million to $725.0 million. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for borrowings of up to $425.0 million under a senior, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Loan Commitment”) and $300.0 million under a senior, unsecured term loan (the “Term Loan Commitment” and, together with the Revolving Loan Commitment, the “Credit Facility”). Subject to meeting certain criteria, Hines Global may on two occasions for each of the Revolving Loan Commitment and the Term Loan Commitment request that the aggregate commitment under each be increased, provided that the aggregate commitments under the Credit Facility cannot exceed $1.25 billion. Additionally, the Amended Credit Agreement reduced the required interest coverage ratio thresholds and decreased the interest rate spread on outstanding loan amounts by 10 to 15 basis points, depending on the ratio of the Company’s leverage to total asset value. The Amended Credit Agreement has a new maturity date of November 23, 2023, subject to two one-year extensions options that the Company may exercise if it meets certain conditions.
The foregoing description of the Amended Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 19, 2019, November 21, 2019 and November 18, 2020, as well as the Amended Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meaning given to such terms in the Amended Credit Agreement.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
(d) Exhibits:
Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including intentions, beliefs, expectations or projections relating to the availability of borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements are based on current expectations, forecasts and assumptions that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” or similar words or phrases intended to identify information that is not historical in nature. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, risks associated with the Company’s ability to continue to maintain its covenants under the Amended Credit Agreement and meet other requirements under the Amended Credit Agreement, and other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of Hines Global’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated by its other filings with the SEC. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Hines Global or any person acting on Hines Global’s behalf are qualified by the cautionary statements in this section. Except as otherwise may be required by law, Hines Global undertakes no obligation to update or publicly release any revisions to forward-looking statements to reflect events, circumstances or changes in expectations after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
