ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS.
On December 20, 2013, the Registrant filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “8-K”) announcing the acquisition of a 31,705 square foot property in Grove, Oklahoma by WHLR-HPA-1, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Wheeler REIT, L. P., a Virginia limited partnership of which the Registrant is the sole general partner. In Item 9.01 of the 8-K, the Registrant indicated that it would file requisite audited financial information for the acquired property within 71 calendar days of the acquisition. The Registrant hereby amends the 8-K to provide that it shall not file such financial information as it is not required pursuant to Regulation S-X because the acquired property was newly constructed, owner occupied and lacked rental history.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
