Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations
Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Purchase and Sale Agreement
On November 22, 2021, certain affiliates (the “Sellers”) of First Real Estate Investment Trust of New Jersey, Inc. (“FREIT”) entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”) with MCB Acquisition Company, LLC (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Sellers have agreed to sell three properties (the “Properties”) to the Purchaser for an aggregate purchase price of $267,000,000, subject to customary prorations for taxes and operating expenses. The gross proceeds of the sale will be used to satisfy related mortgage debt in the approximate amount of $156,000,000 and pay customary transaction expenses and transfer taxes. A portion of the purchase price will be deposited in escrow in an amount to be determined by the Sellers and the Purchaser at the time of closing with respect to leases where the rent commencement date has not occurred or economic obligations under certain leases remain unpaid. The net proceeds of the sale will be allocated to FREIT based upon FREIT’s interest in the three entities that own the Properties as described below.
The Properties consist of:
· | Damascus Center, a 144,000 square foot shopping center in Damascus, Maryland owned by Damascus Centre, LLC, a joint venture in which FREIT owns a 70% interest; |
· | The Rotunda, a mixed use property comprised of 295,000 square feet of office and retail and a 379-unit residential apartment community in Baltimore, Maryland, owned by Grande Rotunda, LLC, a joint venture in which FREIT owns a 60% interest; and |
· | Westridge Square, a 253,000 square foot shopping center in Frederick, Maryland owned by FREIT’s 100% owned subsidiary, WestFREIT Corp. |
The Purchase and Sale Agreement is subject to closing conditions and other terms and conditions customary for real estate transactions and provides that the Purchaser has the right, in its sole discretion, for any reason or no reason, to terminate the Purchase and Sale Agreement during a due diligence period which expires on December 22, 2021.
The Purchase and Sale Agreement requires the Purchaser to make an initial deposit of $3,000,000 within three business days of the effective date of the agreement and an additional $7,000,000 deposit upon the expiration of the due diligence period. The deposits become non-refundable after the expiration of the due diligence period, except under certain limited circumstances.
The Purchase and Sale Agreement contains various representations and warranties of the parties customary for a transaction of this nature.
The transaction is scheduled to close by December 31, 2021. No assurance can be given as to the timing or whether this transaction will be consummated.
