Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 22, 2025, Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) and Armada Hoffler, L.P., the Company’s operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the purchasers party thereto (the “Purchasers”) in connection with the private placement of the Operating Partnership’s senior unsecured notes (the “Notes”). Under the Purchase Agreement, the Operating Partnership agreed to sell and the Purchasers agreed to purchase an aggregate of $115.0 million of the Notes, consisting of (a) $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.57% Senior Notes, Series A, due July 22, 2028, (b) $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.78% Senior Notes, Series B, due July 22, 2030 and (c) $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.09% Senior Notes, Series C, due July 22, 2032. The issue price for the Notes was 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof. The Notes were issued on July 22, 2025.

The Notes bear interest on the outstanding principal balance at the stated rates per annum from the date of issuance, payable semiannually on January 22 and July 22 of each year, commencing January 22, 2026 until such principal becomes due and payable. The Notes are the senior unsecured obligations of the Operating Partnership and rank at least pari passu in right of payment with all other unsecured senior indebtedness of the Operating Partnership.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Operating Partnership may, at its option, upon notice to each holder of the Notes, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, either series of the Notes, in an amount not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of such series of the Notes then outstanding in the case of a partial prepayment, at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, plus the applicable Make‑Whole Amount (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), which will be calculated based on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount, as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

The obligations of the Operating Partnership under the Notes are guaranteed (the “Guarantees”) by the Company and by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantees or otherwise becomes liable for the repayment at any time, whether as a borrower or an additional or co‑borrower or otherwise, for or in respect of any indebtedness under any Material Credit Facility (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), subject to release pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Company and the Operating Partnership and customary affirmative and negative covenants of the Company and the Operating Partnership. In addition, the Purchase Agreement contains a number of financial covenants substantially similar to those contained in the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 23, 2022, by and among the Company, the Operating Partnership, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, including but not limited to (i) a maximum leverage ratio, (ii) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, (iii) a minimum unencumbered interest coverage ratio, (iv) a minimum unencumbered asset value and number of unencumbered properties and (v) limitations on occupancy rate and tenant concentration of unencumbered properties.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary events of default, including but not limited to non-payment, breach of covenants, representations or warranties, cross defaults, bankruptcy or other insolvency events, judgments, Employee Retirement Income Security Act 1974 (ERISA) events, and failure of a guaranty agreement. If an event of default occurs, the holders of the Notes will be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Purchase Agreement and the Notes.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement, the Notes and the Guarantees is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement (which attaches the forms of the Notes), a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by this reference.

The Operating Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes to repay existing indebtedness from time to time and for general corporate purposes. The offer and sale of the Notes and the Guarantees has not and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

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