Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
The information set forth under Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
As part of its asset-light investment approach, on February 17, 2023, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Creative Media & Community Trust Corporation (“CMCT”) announced the closing of a co-investment transaction pursuant to which three international co-investors, Kanden Realty & Development America LLC, Taisei USA, LLC and TO-4750 Wilshire Co-Investor, LP, committed to acquire an 80% interest in a property owned by CMCT located at 4750 Wilshire Blvd in Los Angeles (“4750 Wilshire”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $34.4 million, excluding transaction costs. The general partner of TO-4750 Wilshire Co-Investor, LP is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of CMCT.
CMCT intends to use part of the proceeds from the three co-investors and a mortgage loan that CMCT is in the process of obtaining from a bank to finance the conversion of two out of the three floors of 4750 Wilshire into for-lease multifamily units.
The conversion is expected to cost approximately $31.0 million. Pursuant to the co-investment agreement, each co-investor will pay an on-going management fee to CMCT. In addition, CMCT may earn incentive fees from co-investors based on the performance of 4750 Wilshire after conversion. The co-investment agreement contains terms and conditions customary of a transaction of this nature. The foregoing description of the co-investment agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
Explanatory Note
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company is providing the pro forma financial information required by Item 9.01 related to the sale of 4750 Wilshire Boulevard.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of September 30, 2022 is presented as if the completion of the sale of the 80% interest in 4750 Wilshire (the “Co-Investment”) had occurred on September 30, 2022. The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021 are presented as if the Co-Investment had occurred on January 1, 2021.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the pro forma financial position and results of operations of the Company as of and for the periods indicated; however, the accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are not intended to be indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have actually occurred nor do they purport to represent the financial position or results of operations for future periods. The retrospectively adjusted financial position and results of operations for the indicated periods when reported in the post-sale periodic reports may differ from the pro forma financial statements presented herein. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and notes accompanying the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations do not include the impact of any strategies that management may have considered in order to efficiently manage the Company's operations had the sale occurred on January 1, 2021. Pro forma adjustments have not been made in the accompanying pro forma consolidated statements of operations of the Company for the estimated gain on disposition resulting from the sale, for any reimbursements or payments resulting from the sale, or for the use of proceeds resulting from the sale.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
TRANSACTION ACCOUNTING ADJUSTMENTS
The transaction accounting adjustments are based on our preliminary estimates and assumptions that are subject to change. The following adjustments have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information:
Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2022
(a)Reflects the Company’s historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022, which was included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as filed with the SEC on November 14, 2022.
(b)Reflects an 80% share of Company’s property-level historical financial position related to 4750 Wilshire as of September 30, 2022, except for certain of the pro forma adjustments described below that are a direct result of the transaction.
Investment in unconsolidated entity
(c)Reflects the Company’s retained 20% interest in 4750 Wilshire as of September 30, 2022 accounted for as an equity-method investment which will be consistent with the Company’s accounting treatment for its retained 20% interest in 4750 Wilshire following the Co-Investment.
Cash and cash equivalents
(d)Reflects the $34.4 million cash consideration to be received under the Co-Investment.
Distributions in excess of earnings
(e)Reflects the excess of the net cash proceeds from the sale of the Co-Investment over the carrying value, as of September 30, 2022, of the assets net of liabilities of the 4750 Wilshire. This amount has not been reflected in the pro forma consolidated statements of operations as it is considered to be nonrecurring in nature.
Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 and the Year Ended December 31, 2021
(a)Reflects the historical unaudited consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, which were included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as filed with the SEC on November 14, 2022, and the Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 16, 2022, respectively.
(b)Reflects an 80% share of the Company’s property-level historical results of operations related to 4750 Wilshire for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021, except the pro forma adjustments described below that are a direct result of the transaction.
Asset management and other fees to related parties
(c)For the year ended December 31, 2021, asset management fees were calculated as a percentage of the daily average gross fair value of assets, which would have resulted in a pro forma decrease of the asset management fee for the Co-Investment for the year ended December 31, 2021 of $366,000. Because of the application of the fee waiver dated as of January 1, 2022, the asset management fee has been calculated for pro forma purposes as a percentage of the net asset value applicable to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which resulted in no pro forma adjustment of the asset management fee for the Co-Investment for this period.
Income (loss) from unconsolidated entity
(d) Reflects the Company’s retained 20% share of 4750 Wilshire’s net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021 accounted for as an equity-method investment which will be consistent with the Company’s accounting treatment for its retained 20% interest in 4750 Wilshire following the Co-Investment.
