Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
333 West 34th Street
On June 28, 2013, American Realty Capital New York Recovery REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a purchase and sale agreement to acquire the fee simple interest in an institutional-quality office building located in Midtown Manhattan. The seller of the property is 333W34 SLG Owner LLC, a subsidiary of SL Green Realty Corp. The seller has no material relationship with the Company and the acquisition will not be an affiliated transaction.
Pursuant to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, the Company’s obligation to close upon the acquisition is subject to certain conditions customary to closing. Although the Company believes that the acquisition of the property is probable, there can be no assurance that the acquisition will be consummated. The purchase and sale agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the seller.
The contract purchase price of the property is $220.3 million, exclusive of closing costs. The Company was required to make a $20.0 million nonrefundable deposit upon the execution of the purchase and sale agreement. The Company intends to fund the purchase price with proceeds from its ongoing initial public offering. The Company may seek financing on the property at or post-closing from a lender yet to be identified. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to secure financing on terms that it deems favorable or at all.
The property contains approximately 347,000 rentable square feet and is 100% leased to four tenants: The Segal Company (Eastern States) Inc.; The Metropolitan Transportation Authority; Godiva Chocolatier Inc.; and Sam Ash New York Megastores, LLC.
