ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
Purchase and Sale Agreement for 213 W. Institute Place
On August 29, 2017, KBS Growth & Income REIT, Inc., (the “Company”), through an indirect wholly owned subsidiary (the “Buyer”), entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the “Agreement”) with 213 W. Institute Owner LLC and 218-224 W. Chicago Owner LLC (together, the “Seller”) to acquire a seven-story Class A office building containing 157,166 rentable square feet located on approximately 0.5 acres of land in Chicago, Illinois (“213 W. Institute Place”). The Seller is not affiliated with the Company or KBS Capital Advisors LLC, the Company’s external advisor. 
The contractual purchase price of 213 W. Institute Place is approximately $43.5 million plus closing costs. The Company intends to fund the purchase of 213 W. Institute Place with proceeds from its terminated private offering, its terminated primary public offering and proceeds from an existing term loan from an unaffiliated lender. The Company is currently renegotiating the terms of the term loan. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company would be obligated to purchase the property only after satisfaction of agreed upon closing conditions. There can be no assurance that the Company will complete the acquisition. As of August 30, 2017, the Company had made a deposit of $1.5 million and, in some circumstances, if the Company fails to complete the acquisition, it may forfeit up to $1.5 million of earnest money.
213 W. Institute Place was built in 1908 and renovated in 2017. As of August 1, 2017, 213 W. Institute Place was approximately 91% leased to 38 tenants. The current aggregate annual effective base rent, which is calculated as the annualized contractual base rental income (net of rental abatements), for the tenants of 213 W. Institute Place is approximately $2.8 million. The current weighted-average remaining lease term for the tenants is approximately 5.0 years. The current weighted-average rental rate (net of rental abatements) over the remaining lease term is $25.41 per square foot.
