On July 5, 2017, Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (the "Company") through its operating partnership, Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P., entered into an agreement (the “Agreement”) with an unaffiliated third-party seller (the “Seller”) to acquire an industrial park with six buildings comprising approximately 1.2 million rentable square feet located within our South Bay submarket (the “Industrial Park”). The purchase price of the Industrial Park is $210.5 million, exclusive of closing costs. The Company expects to fund the acquisition through a combination of available cash on hand, by drawing on the Company's unsecured revolving credit facility and, subject to market conditions, proceeds from long-term unsecured debt financing.
The Company made a deposit of $6.0 million upon entering into the Agreement. On July 10, 2017, the due diligence period expired and the Company waived all due diligence contingencies, making the deposit non-refundable, except in the case of a Seller default or failure to satisfy closing conditions. The acquisition is expected to close in July 2017, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing requirements and conditions. However, there can be no assurance that the acquisition will close within the expected timeframe or at all.
