(3) Calculated as annualized base rent set forth in this table divided by annualized base rent for the total Portfolio as of June 27, 2014. |

We believe that existing occupancy and expiring leases in the Portfolio both present the Company with value-add opportunities to reposition certain properties in order to deliver high-demand product capable of achieving higher rents. The Company expects to undertake a value-add capital improvement program at the Alton property in the near future, including dividing a larger space into three dock-high units with new office areas. The Company expects that this capital improvement program will take approximately six to eight months to complete, and has budgeted approximately $3.0 million for capital expenditures to complete these value-add improvements. At the 9455 Cabot property, the Company expects to undertake a capital improvement program to complete dividing of a vacant space. The Company expects these improvements to take approximately three to five months to complete, and has budgeted approximately $550,000 for the work. Except for the capital improvement programs noted above, and other than normally recurring capital expenditures and tenant improvements, the Company has no present plans with respect to renovation, improvement or redevelopment of the Portfolio. The Company expects to finance these capital improvement programs from cash on hand and proceeds drawn from its revolving credit facility.
Item 2.03 |
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
On June 24, 2014, Rexford Industrial – SDLAOC, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Borrower”) of the Operating Partnership entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan”) by and among the Borrower with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, the Lenders referenced therein, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as Sole Bookrunner and Sole Lead Arranger, for amount equal to $48.5 million, to partially fund the acquisition of the Portfolio described in Item 2.01 of this Current Report. The Loan has an initial three-year term with one 24-month extension option available, subject to certain conditions, and matures on June 24, 2017. The Loan bears interest, at the Borrower’s option, at either (i) LIBOR plus 1.55% or (ii) the alternate base rate plus 0.55%.
The Loan is secured by the first priority deed of trust on eight of the nine properties in the Portfolio and is guaranteed by the Operating Partnership.
The Loan includes a series of customary covenants that the Borrower must comply with, in addition to a performance covenant that is tested annually and requires the achievement of a minimum in-place debt yield of 9.25% by the Properties.
The Loan may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty.
The Loan contains usual and customary events of default including defaults in the payment of principal, interest or fees, defaults in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Loan, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, and bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Loan, the unpaid principal amount together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.
The foregoing summary of the Loan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Loan, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
On June 26, 2014, the Company elected to draw down a portion of the previously established $200.0 million revolving credit facility. The Company elected to borrow $39.5 million at one-month LIBOR plus the applicable margin (the “Facility Borrowing”). The Facility Borrowing was used to fund a portion of the remaining balance of the purchase price of the Portfolio, which transaction funded and closed on June 27, 2014, as disclosed in detail in Item 2.01 of this Current Report.
Upon the one-month maturity date of the Facility Borrowing, the Company may elect to either repay all or a portion of the Facility Borrowing, or convert the Facility Borrowing to a new borrowing at either the then applicable rate plus an applicable margin.
After giving effect to the acquisition of the Portfolio and the related borrowing under the Company’s revolving credit facility, there is approximately $99.9 million drawn under that revolving facility, and an additional $100.0 million under the related senior unsecured term loan facility. The current borrowing capacity under the Company’s revolving credit facility is $200.0 million; accordingly, after giving effect to the acquisition of the Portfolio, the Company will have approximately $100.1 million available under the revolving credit facility to fund the above-mentioned capital improvement programs, additional acquisitions and working capital needs.
