ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
Repayment of $100 Million Term Loan Facility
On November 16, 2020, Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (the “Company”), through its operating partnership, Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), repaid in full the $100 million unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) outstanding under its Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among the Company, as parent, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, Bank of America N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and letter of credit issuer, and the other lenders named therein. The Company’s payment to the lenders was approximately $100.1 million, inclusive of accrued interest, which satisfied all of the Company’s obligations under the Term Loan Facility borrowing. The Company did not incur any prepayment penalties for repaying the Term Loan Facility in advance of the maturity date of February 14, 2022.
In addition, the Company terminated one of its interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $100 million by paying a swap termination fee of approximately $1.4 million. The pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swap was scheduled to mature in August 2021 and was used to hedge interest rate risk related to the Term Loan Facility.
Acquisition of Gateway Pointe Industrial Campus
As previously reported, on October 8, 2020, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, entered into an agreement with a third-party seller to acquire an industrial park for approximately $296.6 million, exclusive of closing costs (“Gateway Pointe Industrial Campus”). On November 17, 2020, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, completed the acquisition of Gateway Pointe Industrial Campus, which is comprised of four 100% occupied buildings totaling approximately 1.0 million rentable square feet, located at 3963, 3931, 3735, and 3629 Workman Mill Road in Whittier, California, within the Company’s Los Angeles–Mid-Counties submarket. The acquisition of Gateway Pointe Industrial Campus was funded through a combination of available cash on hand and cash proceeds from the prior disposition of three properties as part of tax-deferred like-kind exchanges under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Acquisition of Property
On November 17, 2020, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, acquired the industrial property located at 13943-13955 Balboa Boulevard (the “Property”) in Sylmar, California, within the Company’s Los Angeles–San Fernando Valley submarket, for a contract price of $42.6 million, exclusive of closing costs. The acquisition of the Property was funded through a combination of cash on hand, the assumption of approximately $15.7 million of debt and the issuance of 592,186 common units of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (the “Common Units”).
Holders of Common Units have the right to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem any or all of their Common Units for an amount of cash per unit equal to the then current market value of one share of the Company’s common stock, or, at the Company’s election, shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis.
