Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 18, 2022, a subsidiary of Strategic Storage Trust VI, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an assignment agreement with an affiliate of SmartStop Self Storage REIT, Inc. (“SmartStop”) to acquire such affiliate’s right, title and interest in and to a purchase and sale agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an unaffiliated third party for the acquisition of a self storage facility located in Burlington, Ontario, Canada (the “Burlington Property”). The Burlington Property is a self storage facility that contains approximately 92,400 net rentable square feet of storage space and 890 self storage units. The purchase price for the Burlington Property is CAD$35.5 million, plus closing costs and acquisition fees.
The Company expects the acquisition of the Burlington Property to close in the third quarter of 2022 and expects to fund the acquisition with a combination of net proceeds from the Company’s public offering and debt financing. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company will be obligated to purchase the Burlington Property only after satisfactory completion of agreed upon closing conditions. The Company will decide whether to acquire the Burlington Property generally based upon:
•the ability of the Company to raise sufficient net proceeds from its public offering and/or obtain debt or other financing;
•satisfactory completion of due diligence on the Burlington Property and the seller of the Burlington Property;
•satisfaction of the conditions to the acquisition in accordance with the Purchase Agreement; and
•no material adverse changes relating to the Burlington Property, the seller of the Burlington Property or certain economic conditions.
There can be no assurance that the Company will complete the acquisition of the Burlington Property. In some circumstances, if the Company fails to complete the acquisition, it may forfeit up to approximately CAD$2.8 million in earnest money on the Burlington Property.
Other properties may be identified in the future that the Company may acquire prior to or instead of the Burlington Property. Due to the considerable conditions to the consummation of the acquisition of the Burlington Property, the Company cannot make any assurances that the closing of the Burlington Property is probable.
The information in this Item 1.01 description with respect to the Burlington Property is qualified in its entirety by the full Purchase Agreement which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
