Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 21, 2015, Landmark Infrastructure Operating Company LLC (“OpCo”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Landmark Infrastructure Partners LP (the “Partnership”), completed its acquisition of 100 tenant sites and related real property interests, consisting of wireless communication, outdoor advertising and renewable power generation sites (the “Assets”), from Landmark Infrastructure Holding Company LLC (“HoldCo”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Landmark Dividend LLC (“Landmark”), in exchange for cash consideration of $35,700,000 (the “Transaction”). The portfolio of tenant sites has a 100% occupancy rate and an average remaining real property interest and lease term of approximately 83 years and 20 years (including remaining renewal options), respectively. The purchase price was funded with borrowings under the Partnership’s existing credit facility.

 

The terms of the Transaction, which are set forth in an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated July 21, 2015, by and between OpCo and HoldCo (the “Purchase Agreement”), were unanimously approved by the board of directors (the “Board”) of Landmark Infrastructure Partners GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership (the “General Partner”), and the conflicts committee of the Board (the “Conflicts Committee”), which is composed entirely of independent directors. The Conflicts Committee retained independent legal and financial advisors to assist it in evaluating and negotiating the Transaction.

 

The Purchase Agreement generally contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of OpCo and Holdco. Holdco, on the one hand, and OpCo, on the other, have agreed to indemnify each other and their respective affiliates, officers, directors and other representatives against certain losses resulting from any breach of their representations, warranties or covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement, subject to certain limitations and survival periods. Holdco’s indemnity obligations related to the Assets generally terminate on July 21, 2016; provided, however that certain of these indemnity obligations do not terminate until 60 days after the applicable statute of limitations.

 

Each of the parties to the Purchase Agreement is a direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate of Landmark. As a result, certain individuals, including officers of Landmark and officers and directors of the General Partner, serve as officers and/or directors of one or more of such entities. Landmark currently (as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K) owns an approximate 29% limited partner interest in the Partnership based on the number of common units and subordinated units outstanding as of June 30, 2015. Landmark also owns a 100% interest in our General Partner, which owns the non-economic general partner interest in the Partnership and all of the Partnership’s incentive distribution rights.

 

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated into this Item 1.01 in its entirety by reference.
