Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On January 16, 2020, IIP-AZ 1 LLC (“Landlord”), a wholly owned subsidiary of IIP Operating Partnership, LP, the operating partnership subsidiary of Innovative Industrial Properties, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into an amendment (the “Lease Amendment”) to its lease (the “Lease”) with SGS Arizona, LLC (formerly known as Sun Grown Solutions, LLC, “Tenant”) for the property located at 5900 West Greenhouse Drive in Willcox, Arizona (the “Property”).

 

The Lease Amendment provides for reimbursement by Landlord to Tenant of up to an additional $2.0 million for completion of certain additional tenant improvements at the Property (the “Additional TI Allowance”). If Landlord funds the full amount of the Additional TI Allowance, Landlord’s total investment in the Property is expected to be $20.0 million. The provision of the Additional TI Allowance also resulted in a corresponding adjustment of base rent under the Lease Amendment.

 

The Lease Amendment also extends the initial term of the Lease to December 15, 2037, and provides for a guaranty of the Lease by The Pharm, LLC.

 

The foregoing description of the Lease Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Lease Amendment, which is filed as an exhibit to this report and incorporated herein by reference.

During the period beginning on November 8, 2019 and ending on (and including) December 31, 2019, the Company issued and sold, under its previously announced “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”), a total of 782,200 shares of its common stock at an average sale price of $77.52 per share and raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $60.6 million before deducting expenses and commissions. Commissions of approximately $1.2 million were paid to the agent making the sales during such period, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $59.4 million.

 

During the period beginning on January 1, 2020 and ending on (and including) January 17, 2020, the Company issued and sold under the ATM Program a total of 973,282 shares of its common stock at an average sale price of $79.96 per share and raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $77.8 million before deducting expenses and commissions. Commissions of approximately $1.5 million were paid to the agent making the sales during such period, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $76.3 million. 

 

The sales were completed pursuant to an equity distribution agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) between the Company and BTIG, LLC, dated September 20, 2019, a form of which was filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 20, 2019.
