Important Disclosure Information
There is no guarantee that Essential Income REIT (the “Essential Income REIT” or “Trust” or
“Investment”) will be successful or that the Trustee will be successful in executing the
Essential
Income REIT’s objectives. In the event of a market downturn, there may be lengthened
illiquidity
and/or disruption in performance.
This Investment relies upon the decisions of the Trustee. Prior successes by any previous
investments
or their principals, officers, or managers are not indicative of future performance, nor are
they
any guarantee of liquidity, of a shorter- or longer-term hold period, against loss, or
against an
interruption or reduction in income—all of which are risks of real estate and real estate
investments, including this Investment. The principals of the Trustee have conflicts of
interest
that could impact the management of this Investment based on the needs and investment
opportunities
of other companies. This may lead to a conflict of interest between their various roles,
including
conflicts with the investors regarding decisions related to the Essential Income REIT and
acquisition and management of the Essential Income REIT.
Do not invest solely based on distributions that the Essential Income REIT may be currently
generating or targeting to generate. Any distributions will depend upon the successful
operation of
the properties that the Essential Income REIT acquires. Returns are not guaranteed. While
this
Investment includes a liquidity feature, there can be no assurance that liquidity will be
obtained
at any point in the future or that a future liquidity event would be profitable.
The Essential Income REIT plans to utilize leverage, which may magnify the impact of any
risks,
including fluctuations in interest rates, which may significantly affect the returns of this
Investment. Material economic disruption globally or especially in the United States could
have a
material impact on the value of this Investment and could significantly delay or thwart
potential
liquidity events. Local development may also impact property values, as is the case with all
real
estate and real estate investments.
Please note that every real estate investment, including this Investment, is speculative, is
illiquid, has the potential for complete loss of principal, and carries downside risks due
to
variables such as potentially declining market values, re-leasing risk, interest rate risk,
refinancing or financing risk, acts of God, and management and/or operational failures.
The photos included are representative of similar corporate-backed stores and may not be the
actual
locations included in the portfolio. There is no guarantee that all of the identified
properties
will be acquired.
“Investment-grade” refers to tenants whose long-term corporate debt rating is considered
investment
grade by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, or Fitch. An investment grade rating is a rating that
indicates
that a corporate bond has a relatively lower risk of default than a corporate bond with a
speculative grade.
Potential investors should consult their own tax and legal advisors as ExchangeRight does not
provide
tax or legal advice and each investor’s tax considerations are different. Any of the data
provided
herein should not be construed as investment, tax, accounting or legal advice.
Summary of Risk Factors
Our business, financial condition and results of operations are subject to numerous risks and
uncertainties. Below is a summary of the principal factors that make an investment in our
Common
Shares speculative or risky. This summary does not address all of the risks that we face and
should
be read in conjunction with the full risk factors contained in our Form 10 filed with the
Securities
and Exchange Commission.
- Our business depends on our tenants successfully operating their businesses and
satisfying their
obligations to us.
- Illiquidity of real estate investments and restrictions imposed by the Internal Revenue
Code
could significantly impede our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance
of our
properties.
- We are subject to risks associated with the current interest rate environment and
increases in
interest rates may negatively impact us.
- Our revenues and expenses are not directly correlated, and because a large percentage of
our
expenses are fixed, we may not be able to lower our cost structure to offset declines in
our
revenue.
- We may be unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire
on
favorable terms or at all.
- We are subject to risks related to tenant concentration, and an adverse development with
respect
to a large tenant, such as a tenant declaring bankruptcy, could materially and adversely
affect
us.
- We may be unable to complete the acquisitions of the newly identified ExchangeRight DST
Portfolios or the other identified properties included in the Identified Trust
Properties.
- We may not acquire all of the properties that are included among the Identified Trust
Properties.
- We may acquire portfolios of properties, which may result in the acquisition of
individual
properties that do not otherwise meet our investment standards, including properties
that are
vacant.
- The value of the Identified Trust Properties may fluctuate before we can complete the
purchase
of any or all of those properties, and we would not likely be able to adjust the
purchase price
for such acquisition.
- We may only obtain limited warranties when we purchase a property and may only have
limited
recourse in the event our due diligence did not identify any issues that lower the value
of the
property.
- We may be unable to identify and complete acquisitions of suitable properties, which may
impede
our growth, and our future acquisitions may not yield the returns we expect.
- As we continue to acquire properties, we may decrease or fail to increase the
diversification of
our portfolio.
- Challenging economic conditions could increase vacancy rates.
- As leases expire, we may be unable to renew those leases or re-lease the space on
favorable
terms or at all.
- REIT distribution requirements limit our ability to retain cash.
- The failure of any bank in which we deposit our funds could reduce the amount of cash we
have
available to pay distributions and make additional investments.
- Conflicts of interest could arise between the interests of our shareholders and the
interests of
holders of OP Units, which may impede business decisions that could benefit our
shareholders.
- Our growth strategy depends on external sources of capital which may not be available to
us on
commercially reasonable terms or at all.
- Valuations and appraisals of our real estate are estimates of fair value and may not
necessarily
correspond to realizable value.
- NAV calculations are not governed by governmental or independent securities, financial
or
accounting rules or standards.
- In the future, we may choose to acquire properties or portfolios of properties through
tax
deferred contribution transactions, which could result in shareholder dilution and limit
our
ability to sell such assets.
- Many of the properties we intend to acquire are currently owned and managed by
affiliates of the
Trustee.
- Shareholders are bound by the vote of other shareholders on matters on which they are
entitled
to vote, and shareholders will not have the right to vote on certain mergers,
consolidations and
conversions of the Company.
- Our Trustee may be removed only under limited circumstances.
- The Company’s rights, and the rights of shareholders, to recover claims against our
officers and
our Trustee are limited.
- Our Declaration of Trust contains a provision that expressly permits our Trustee, our
officers
and ExchangeRight, and their affiliates, to compete with us.
- The special limited partner of the Operating Partnership will be entitled to incentive
distributions from our Operating Partnership only if the Operating Partnership’s
investors have
received a return of capital plus 7% cumulative, non-compounded annual return, which may
discourage ExchangeRight from facilitating a transaction that would provide liquidity
for our
common shareholders.
- Bankruptcy of ExchangeRight or any tenant of a property owned by the entity pledged to
secure
the RSLCA may adversely affect the value of the ExchangeRight Secured Loans.
- The value of our ExchangeRight RSLCA may be impaired, and we may be unable to realize
any value
upon the foreclosure of the pledges securing the ExchangeRight Secured Loans due to the
terms of
the underlying mortgage loans.
- The failure of a secured loan to qualify as a real estate asset could adversely affect
our
ability to qualify as a REIT.
- Our cash flows and operating results could be adversely affected by required payments of
debt or
related interest and other risks of our debt financing, including an inability to
refinance
existing indebtedness.
- Financing we utilize may include recourse provisions to the Company.
- High interest rates may make it difficult for us to finance or refinance properties,
which could
reduce the number of properties we can acquire and the amount of cash distributions we
can make
to our shareholders.
- Interest-only indebtedness may increase our risk of default and ultimately may reduce
our cash
available for distribution.
- Our current loans, and loans associated with the Identified Trust Properties which we
plan to
assume, may be subject to certain unfavorable provisions.
- We would incur significant material adverse tax consequences if we fail to qualify as a
REIT.
- Complying with REIT requirements may cause us to forego otherwise attractive
opportunities and
limit our growth opportunities.
- We may become subject to litigation, which could materially and adversely affect us.
- An investment in our Common Shares will have limited liquidity. There is no public
trading
market for our Common Shares and there may never be one; therefore, it may be difficult
to sell
those shares.
