Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On February 25, 2022, The Necessity Retail REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), through wholly owned subsidiaries of The Necessity Retail REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., the Company’s operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), acquired 10 properties (the “Second Closing Properties”) from certain subsidiaries of CIM Real Estate Finance Trust, Inc. (the “Sellers”) pursuant to the previously disclosed purchase and sale agreement among the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Sellers. The Second Closing Properties consist of 10 power centers and grocery-anchored multi-tenant retail centers. The acquired properties are located across 9 states and aggregate approximately 1.62 million square feet, and represent the second tranche of the Company’s previously announced acquisition of 81 properties (together, the “CIM Portfolio”) from the Sellers. The Second Closing Properties contain approximately 1.62 million rentable square feet and were 89% leased to 123 tenants as of September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, those leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 5.7 years. As previously reported on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 14, 2022, the Company acquired an initial tranche of 44 power centers and grocery-anchored multi-tenant retail centers and a detention pond parcel at an aggregate purchase price of $547.4 million, excluding closing costs. Neither the Sellers nor CIM Real Estate Finance Trust have a material relationship with the Company, the Operating Partnership or any of their respective subsidiaries and the acquisition was not an affiliated transaction.
The aggregate purchase price of the Second Closing Properties was $220.8 million, excluding closing costs. The Company funded the purchase price of the Second Closing Properties from a combination of a $175 million draw under the Company’s credit facility, assumed mortgages of $19.3 million, the issuance of $26.7 million in value of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Class A Common Stock”) and the remainder with cash on hand. The Second Closing Properties contain approximately 1.62 million rentable square feet and were 89% leased to 123 tenants as of September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, those leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 5.7 years.
The following table lists information about the Second Closing Properties:

(1) | Remaining lease term in years as of September 30, 2021. Because the portfolio has multiple properties with varying lease expirations, remaining lease term is calculated as a weighted-average based on annualized rental income on a straight-line basis. |
(2) | Occupancy data as of September 30, 2021. |
The Company expects to complete the acquisition of the remaining properties in the CIM Portfolio in the first quarter of 2022. There can be no assurance that any subsequent closing will occur, or of the timing of any such closing.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On February 25, 2022, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, drew $175 million from its existing credit facility with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. in connection with the acquisition of the Second Closing Properties. A description of the credit facility is included in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 4, 2021. The description is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the credit agreement relating to the credit facility, which was filed with the SEC as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 4, 2021 and is incorporated by reference herein. In total, the Company has drawn $345 million from its existing credit facility in relation to the acquisition.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
As noted in Item 2.01 above, on February 25, 2022, the Company issued 3,185,414 shares of Class A Common Stock with a value for these purposes equal to $26.7 million to satisfy a portion of the purchase price of the Second Closing Properties. The issuance of the shares of Class A Common Stock was made in reliance on the exemption from registration in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Regulation D thereunder.
