Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On January 5, 2016, Stratus Block 21, LLC (“Block 21”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stratus Properties Inc. (“Stratus”), as borrower, and Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company (“Goldman Sachs”), as lender, entered into a term loan agreement, a promissory note and related loan documents (collectively, the “Goldman Sachs Loan Documents”) which provides for a $150 million, ten-year, non-recourse loan (the “Goldman Sachs Loan”) to refinance the W Austin Hotel & Residences project, a 36-story mixed-use development in downtown Austin, Texas, anchored by a W Hotel & Residences.

The Goldman Sachs Loan accrues interest at 5.58 percent per annum and matures on January 6, 2026. Block 21’s obligations under the Goldman Sachs Loan are secured by all assets owned from time to time by Block 21. Additionally, certain obligations of Block 21 under the Goldman Sachs Loan are guaranteed by Stratus, including environmental indemnification and other customary carve-out obligations.

The Goldman Sachs Loan contains customary covenants and other restrictions. Goldman Sachs may declare any amount outstanding under the Goldman Sachs Loan to be immediately due and payable during the continuance of certain customary events of default by Block 21. In connection with any acceleration of the Goldman Sachs Loan, Block 21 must pay a yield maintenance premium in the amount of at least three percent of the amount of indebtedness prepaid. Prepayment of the Goldman Sachs Loan is not permitted except for (1) certain prepayments resulting from casualty or condemnation and (2) prepayment of the Goldman Sachs Loan in whole within 90 days of the maturity date upon at least 30 days prior written notice.

Approximately $129.9 million of the proceeds from the Goldman Sachs Loan were used to fully repay Block 21’s existing obligations under the term loan by and between Block 21 and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent on behalf of the participating lenders, dated September 30, 2013, as amended September 28, 2015, which was terminated effective January 5, 2016. In addition, the $20.0 million term loan under the Comerica credit facility was paid in full effective January 7, 2016, with proceeds from the Goldman Sachs Loan.

The foregoing summary of the Goldman Sachs Loan Documents does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, reference to the full text of the term loan agreement and promissory note, which are filed as exhibits hereto and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

The disclosures set forth in Item 1.01 above are incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

Stratus issued a press release dated January 11, 2016, announcing that on January 5, 2016, it completed the refinancing of its W Austin Hotel & Residences and Austin City Limits Live at the Moody Theater mixed-use development in downtown Austin, Texas. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 7.01.

The information furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
