Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On February 22, 2022, Hines Interests Limited Partnership (“Hines”) issued a press release related to the acquisition of 1315 N. North Branch, by Hines Global Income Trust, Inc. (the “Company”). A copy of such press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The information in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 and shall not be deemed “filed” for any purpose, including for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of Section 18. The information in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including the exhibit furnished herewith, shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in any such filing.
Item 8.01 Other Items
The Company acquired 1315 N. North Branch on February 18, 2022. 1315 N. North Branch is an office property located in Chicago, Illinois that consists of 157,450 square feet and is currently 100% leased. The net purchase price of 1315 N. North Branch was approximately $47.0 million, exclusive of transaction costs and closing prorations. The seller is not affiliated with the Company or its affiliates.
In an effort to increase the tax efficiency of a planned disposition of another property, this acquisition was structured as a reverse like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Reverse 1031 Exchange"). Accordingly, legal title to 1315 N. North Branch is currently held by an exchange administrator (the "Administrator") engaged by the Company to execute the Reverse 1031 Exchange. The Company entered into a master lease agreement with the Administrator pursuant to which the Company, as lessee, holds all of the economic benefits and obligations related to 1315 N. North Branch. The master lease agreement will terminate and legal title will transfer to the Company on the earlier of the completion of the Reverse 1031 Exchange or August 17, 2022 (180 days from the acquisition date).
