Item 1.01.Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 16, 2019, a subsidiary of Strategic Storage Trust IV, Inc. (the “Registrant”) entered into two purchase and sale agreements with unaffiliated third parties (the “Purchase Agreements”) for the acquisition of a portfolio of four self storage facilities located in the States of Florida, North Carolina and Virginia (the “Properties”). The information in this Item 1.01 description is qualified in its entirety by the full Purchase Agreements which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto.
The purchase price for the Properties is $64.45 million, plus closing and acquisition costs. The Registrant expects the acquisition of the Properties to close in the fourth quarter of 2019 and expects to fund the acquisition with a combination of net proceeds from the Registrant’s initial public offering and debt financing. A summary of the Properties is as follows:
Property | | Address | | Approx. Purchase Price | | Approx. Sq. Ft. (net) | | Approx. Units | |
University City | | 7307 University City Blvd., Charlotte, NC 28262 | | $ | 11,900,000 | | | 78,700 | | | 810 | |
Charlottesville | | 2307 Hydraulic Rd., Charlottesville, VA 22901 | | $ | 20,700,000 | | | 71,000 | | | 830 | |
Ardrey Kell | | 9800 Ardrey Kell Rd., Charlotte, NC 28277 | | $ | 18,400,000 | | | 97,800 | | | 1,090 | |
Ocoee | | 1071 Marshall Farms Rd., Ocoee, FL 34761 | | $ | 13,450,000 | | | 78,200 | | | 770 | |
TOTAL | | | | $ | 64,450,000 | | | 325,700 | | | 3,500 | |
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Registrant will be obligated to purchase the Properties only after satisfactory completion of agreed upon closing conditions. The Registrant will decide whether to acquire the Properties generally based upon:
| • | the ability of the Registrant to raise sufficient net proceeds from its offering or obtain debt financing; |
| • | satisfactory completion of due diligence on the Properties and the sellers of the Properties; |
| • | approval by the board of directors of the Registrant to purchase the Properties; |
| • | satisfaction of the conditions to the acquisition in accordance with the Purchase Agreements; and |
| • | no material adverse changes relating to the Properties, the sellers of the Properties or certain economic conditions. |
There can be no assurance that the Registrant will complete the acquisition of the Properties. In some circumstances, if the Registrant fails to complete the acquisition, it may forfeit up to approximately $1.5 million in earnest money on the Properties.
Other properties may be identified in the future that the Registrant may acquire prior to or instead of the Properties. Due to the considerable conditions to the consummation of the acquisition of the Properties, the Registrant cannot make any assurances that the closing of the Properties is probable.
