Item 8.01Other Events.

Pursuant to the Share Redemption Program (the “Program”) of GTJ REIT, Inc. (the “Company”), on December 5, 2017, the Company redeemed 79,681 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Shares”), at a redemption price of $12.55 per Share, for aggregate consideration of $999,996.55.  The Company received redemption requests during the most recent semi-annual period (June 1, 2017 to November 30, 2017) exceeding the Program’s $1 million per year limit.  As a result, the Company was unable to purchase all Shares presented for redemption.  The Company honored the requests it received on a pro rata basis in accordance with the policy on priority of redemptions set forth in the Program, subject to giving certain priorities in accordance with the Program.  The Company will treat any unsatisfied portions of redemption requests as requests for redemption in the next semi-annual period.

The next redemption period will be December 1, 2017 to May 31, 2018.  In early second quarter of 2018, the Company expects to receive its annual valuation as of December 31, 2017.  To the extent the annual valuation results in an adjustment to the redemption price under the Program, the Company’s Board of Directors will announce such adjustment and the time period of its effectiveness by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission and by mailing to the Company’s stockholders an announcement of such redemption price adjustment and time period of its effectiveness at least 30 days prior to the effective date thereof.  The Company’s stockholders are permitted to withdraw any redemption requests upon written notice to the Company at any time prior to ten (10) days before the end of the applicable semi-annual period.
