Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Economic Dependency

The Company depends on its Sponsor and its Advisor for certain services that are essential to the Company, including the sale of the Company’s shares of common stock, the identification, evaluation, negotiation, origination, acquisition and disposition of investments; management of the daily operations of the Company’s investment portfolio; and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that these companies are unable to provide the respective services, the Company will be required to obtain such services from other sources.

The Company generally does not require collateral or other security from tenants, other than security deposits or letters of credit. However, since concentration of rental revenue from certain tenants exists, the inability of those tenants to make their payments could have an adverse effect on the Company.

Environmental

As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state and local governments. Although there can be no assurance, the Company is not aware of any environmental liability that could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. However, changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations, the uses and conditions of properties in the vicinity of the Company’s properties, the activities of its tenants and other environmental conditions of which the Company is unaware with respect to the property could result in future environmental liabilities.

Tenant Improvements

Pursuant to lease agreements, as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had obligations to pay for $401,392 and $3,789,091, respectively, in site and tenant improvements to be incurred by tenants, including a 72.7% share of the tenant improvements for the Santa Clara property. During the second quarter of 2019, $3,387,699 of the restricted cash balance as of December 31, 2018 was released to a tenant to reimburse it for tenant improvement costs under the terms of the lease agreement. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had $99,228 and $3,486,927 of restricted cash held to fund tenant improvements.

Redemption of Common Stock

The maximum amount that may be repurchased per month is limited to no more than 2% of the Company’s most recently determined aggregate NAV. Repurchases for any calendar quarter will be limited to no more than 5% of its most recently determined aggregate NAV. The foregoing repurchase limitations are based on "net repurchases" during a quarter or month, as applicable. Thus, for any given calendar quarter or month, the maximum amount of repurchases during that quarter or month will be equal to (1) 5% or 2% (as applicable) of the Company’s most recently determined aggregate NAV, plus (2) proceeds from sales of new shares in the Registered Offering and Class S Offering (including purchases pursuant to its Registered DRP Offering) since the beginning of a current calendar quarter or month, less (3) repurchase proceeds paid since the beginning of the current calendar quarter or month.

The Company has the discretion to repurchase fewer shares than have been requested to be repurchased in a particular month or quarter, or to repurchase no shares at all, in the event that it lacks readily available funds to do so due to market conditions beyond the Company’s control, its need to maintain liquidity for its operations or because the Company determines that investing in real property or other illiquid investments is a better use of its capital than repurchasing its shares. In the event that the Company repurchases some but not all of the shares submitted for repurchase in a given period, shares submitted for repurchase during such period will be repurchased on a pro-rata basis. In addition, the Company’s board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program without stockholder approval upon 30 days’ notice if its directors believe such action is in the Company and its stockholders’ best interests. The Company’s board of directors may also amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program due to changes in law or regulation, or if the board of directors becomes aware of undisclosed material information that the Company believes should be publicly disclosed before shares are repurchased.

In order to protect the interests of long-term investors, on August 7, 2019, the board of directors amended the share repurchase program for the Class C common stock to require that shares be held for 90 days after they have been issued to the applicable stockholder before the Company will accept requests for repurchase. This policy is being implemented to:

•

avoid disruption to cash management and real estate investment activity;

•

reduce the cost burden incurred from short-term share repurchase requests; and

•

protect the Company, its stockholders and corresponding financial institutions from fraudulent cyber activities.

In accordance with the terms of the share repurchase program, this amendment will become effective 30 days after this Form 10-Q and a related supplement to the prospectus for the Registered Offering are filed with the SEC.

Legal and Regulatory Matters

From time-to-time, the Company may become party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Other than as described below, the Company is not a party to any legal proceeding, nor is the Company aware of any pending or threatened litigation that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition should such litigation be resolved unfavorably.

The SEC is conducting an investigation related to, among other things, the advertising and sale of securities in connection with the Registered Offering and compliance with broker-dealer regulations. The investigation is a non-public fact-finding inquiry. At this stage of the investigation, the SEC has not made an allegation of wrongdoing nor a finding that violations of law have occurred. In connection with the investigation, the Company and certain associates have received and responded to subpoenas from the SEC, including requests for various documents related to the Company, the Sponsor, and the Registered Offering. The SEC’s investigation is ongoing. The Company has cooperated and intends to continue to cooperate with the SEC in this matter. The Company is presently in discussion with the SEC about potential outcomes resulting from the investigation. The Company is unable to predict whether the SEC will commence any legal actions or launch additional investigations, inquiries or other actions related thereto.
