Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On October 12, 2021, BREIT Merger, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BREIT Merger”), and wholly-owned subsidiary of Belpointe PREP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Belpointe PREP”), completed the previously reported acquisition of BREIT, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“BREIT”), and predecessor to Belpointe REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Belpointe REIT”), pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated April 21, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Belpointe PREP, BREIT Merger and Belpointe REIT.

 

As previously disclosed, in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, on April 21, 2021, BREIT Merger commenced an offer (the “Offer”) to exchange each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Belpointe REIT validly tendered in the Offer for 1.05 Class A units (the “Class A Units”) representing limited liability company interests of Belpointe PREP, with any fractional Class A Units rounded up to the nearest whole unit (the “Transaction Consideration”).

 

The Offer expired at 11:59 P.M. New York City time on June 18, 2021. Securities Transfer Corporation, the depository and exchange agent for the Offer, advised Belpointe PREP that as of expiration of the Offer 764,898 shares of Common Stock had been validly tendered, representing 64.27% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Minimum Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement) for the Offer was satisfied because the number of shares of Common Stock validly tendered represented at least a majority of the aggregate voting power of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately following consummation of the Offer. On September 14, 2021, BREIT Merger accepted for exchange all of the shares of Common Stock validly tendered in the Offer.

 

Effective September 14, 2021, Belpointe REIT completed the QOZB Sale (as defined in the Merger Agreement), and, on October 1, 2021, completed the Conversion (as defined in the Merger Agreement), wherein each outstanding share of Common Stock of Belpointe REIT was converted into a limited liability company interest (the “Interests”) of BREIT. All other conditions to the Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement) having been satisfied, on October 14, 2021, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and in accordance with §4A-702 of the Maryland Limited Liability Company Act and §18-209 of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, BREIT merged with and into BREIT Merger, with BREIT Merger surviving. In the Merger, each Interest that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was converted into the right to receive the Transaction Consideration.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement, Offer, QOZB Sale, Conversion and Merger do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Annex A to Belpointe PREP’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Form S-4”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2021, and to the discussion of the transactions in the Form S-4, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
