Note 6 - Investments in Real Estate-Related Assets

Preferred Equity Investment – Denver, PA

On January 2, 2019, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, made a preferred equity investment, together with a subsidiary of CFI. The Company’s initial investment of $4,779,353 was made through the Pennsylvania SPE, in which, as of January 2, 2019, the Company owned 40.5% of the membership interests and CFI owned 59.5% of the membership interests.

The Pennsylvania SPE entered into a joint venture agreement (the “Pennsylvania JV”) with a subsidiary of USRA Net Lease III Capital Corp (“USRA”). The Company and CFI, by and through the Pennsylvania SPE, invested $11,805,000 of capital in the Pennsylvania JV. The Pennsylvania JV is the sole member of an entity that purchased the PA Property for a purchase price of $117,050,000. The acquisition of the PA Property was also financed by a mortgage loan in the amount of $76,732,500 (the “PA Mortgage Loan”) provided by Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company (the “PA Mortgage Lender”). In connection with entering into the Pennsylvania JV, CF Real Estate Holdings, LLC, an affiliate of CFI (“CFREH”), entered into a Back-Up Indemnification Agreement (the “CFREH Indemnification Agreement”) with USRA, whereby CFREH agreed to indemnify USRA and certain of its affiliates from certain claims that may be asserted by the PA Mortgage Lender to the extent that such claims are caused by CFREH, the Pennsylvania SPE, or any of their affiliates.

The PA Property is 100% leased to New Albertsons L.P., which is a subsidiary of Albertsons Companies Inc. (“Albertsons”), which serves as the guarantor of the lease (the “PA Property Lease”). The PA Property Lease is a net lease whereby the tenant is responsible for operating expenses, real estate taxes, utilities, repairs, maintenance and capital expenditures, in addition to its obligation to pay base rent.

Subsequent to January 2, 2019, the Company purchased additional membership interests in the Pennsylvania SPE from CFI totaling $7,025,647, bringing the Company’s total investment in the Pennsylvania SPE to $11,805,000 and the Company’s interest in the Pennsylvania SPE to 100%. Accordingly, on December 24, 2019, the Company entered into a Back-Up Indemnification Agreement, whereby the Company assumed all of the past, present and future obligations and liabilities of CFREH under the CFREH Indemnification Agreement, and CFREH was released of such obligations. As of the date hereof, there are no outstanding claims or obligations under the CFREH Indemnification Agreement.

Based on the Company’s consolidation analysis, which was performed in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation as described in the “Variable Interest Entities” section of Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, management has determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the Pennsylvania SPE.

Mezzanine Loan – Melrose Park, IL

On January 2, 2019, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, made a mezzanine loan investment, together with CFI. The Company’s initial investment of $5,099,190 was made through the Illinois SPE, in which, as of January 2, 2019, the Company owned 40.5% of the membership interests and CFI owned 59.5% of the membership interests.

The Illinois SPE, originated a fixed rate, subordinate mezzanine loan in the amount of $12,595,000 to Chicago Grocery Mezz B, LLC, which is owned and controlled by USRA, for the acquisition of the IL Property for a contract purchase price of $124,950,000.

The IL Property is 100% leased to New Albertsons L.P., which is a subsidiary of Albertsons, which serves as the guarantor of the lease (the “IL Property Lease”). The IL Property Lease is a net lease whereby the tenant is responsible for operating expenses, real estate taxes, utilities, repairs, maintenance and capital expenditures, in addition to its obligation to pay base rent.

Subsequent to January 2, 2019, the Company purchased additional membership interests in the Illinois SPE from CFI totaling $7,495,810, bringing the Company’s total investment in the Illinois SPE to $12,595,000 and the Company’s interest in the Illinois SPE to 100%. Subject to the limitations in the Company’s charter, the purchase price for any membership interests purchased from CFI was equal to CFI’s purchase price in exchange for such membership interests.

Based on the Company’s consolidation analysis, which was performed in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation as described in the “Variable Interest Entities” section of Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, management has determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the Illinois SPE.

Station DST Interests

On November 25, 2020, the Company acquired, through the Operating Partnership, beneficial interests (the “Station Interests”) in the Station DST, for a purchase price of $7.6 million. The Station Interests were acquired in a private placement offering managed by an affiliate of CFI. The Station Interests held represent 15% of the Station DST.

On October 29, 2020, the Station DST acquired the fee simple interest in a 444-unit apartment community located in Irving, Texas (the “Station DST Property”), for a total purchase price of $106 million. The purchase price was comprised of $47.1 million in equity and $58.9 million in proceeds from a mortgage loan. At September 30, 2022, the Station DST Property is 93.68% occupied.

The value of the Station Interests was based upon the Station DST Property appraisal, the fair market value of the mortgage loan encumbering the Station DST Property as of November 30, 2020, the other tangible assets and liabilities of the Station DST such as cash and reserves, each reflecting the Company’s ownership interest in the Station DST (15%).

Based on the Company’s consolidation analysis, the Company determined itself not to be the primary beneficiary of the Station DST and has therefore accounted for as investment in the Station DST under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323. The Company’s consolidation analysis was performed in accordance with ASC 810 as described in the “Variable Interest Entities” section of Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
