Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Acquisition of Garrity Malkin Portfolio

On July 23, 2014, Plymouth Industrial REIT, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the "Garrity Malkin Agreement") with unrelated third-parties to purchase four industrial properties for an aggregate purchase price of $21.7 million. The properties consist of six industrial buildings with approximately 633,674 of rentable square feet and are located in Columbus, Ohio and Memphis, Tennessee. The acquisition is expected to close on or before October 3, 2014, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that these conditions will be satisfied or that the pending acquisition will be consummated on the terms described herein, or at all. The earnest money deposit under the Garrity Malkin Agreement is $200,000 and is to be delivered within five (5) business days following the expiration of the contingency period, which expires on September 6, 2014. The deposit is not refundable unless the closing does not occur as a result of the seller’s failure to satisfy certain conditions under the agreement. The Garrity Malkin Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties. During the period of nine (9) months from the date of recordation of the deed, the seller has agreed to indemnify the Company for any breaches of its representations, warranties and covenants under the agreement up to an aggregate amount of $1,000,000.

A copy of the Garrity Malkin Agreement is attached to this current report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference as though it were fully set forth herein. The foregoing summary description of the Garrity Malkin Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Garrity Malkin Agreement.
