Lightstone Value Plus REIT III, Inc., a related party REIT, owns the other 25% noncontrolling membership interest in the Williamsburg Moxy Hotel Joint Venture.
The Moxy Mortgage Loans bear interest at SOFR plus 5.10%, subject to a 8.75% floor. The Moxy Mortgage Loans initially mature on April 19, 2027, but may be further extended though the exercise of two six-month extension options, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Moxy Mortgage Loans require monthly interest-only payments with their outstanding principal due in full at maturity and are collateralized by a 216-room Marriott Moxy hotel (the “Williamsburg Moxy Hotel”), located in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn in New York City, however, the Moxy Junior Loan is subordinate to the Moxy Senior Loan. The Williamsburg Moxy Hotel Joint Venture used $85.8 million of the aggregate proceeds from the Moxy Mortgage Loans to repay in full existing mortgage indebtedness which was collateralized by the Williamsburg Moxy Hotel.
In connection with the Moxy Mortgage Loans, the Williamsburg Moxy Hotel Joint Venture has provided certain interest and carry costs guarantees. Furthermore, in connection with the Moxy Mortgage Loans, $3.2 of the initial proceeds advanced at closing were used to fund reserves for interest, real estate taxes and insurance.
