EXPLANATORY NOTE
Silver Star Properties REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Form 8-K/A to its Current Report on Form 8-K as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 16, 2024 (the “Original Filing”) to include the information required by Item 3.02 and Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, which was inadvertently excluded from the Original Filing, and to amend and restate Item 8.01 of the Original Filing. No other changes have been made from the Original Filing.
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
To the extent required by this Item 3.02, the information contained in Item 8.01 is incorporated herein by reference.
No underwriters were involved in the Exchange. The consideration received by the Company for the Exchange was the termination of all previously outstanding Rights. The Common Stock is issued by the Company pursuant to the Exchange pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
To the extent required by this Item 3.03, the information contained in Items 3.02 and 8.01 is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously disclosed, the Company implemented a Rights Agreement, dated as of August 18, 2023 (the "Rights Agreement"), between the Company and Phoenix American Financial Services, Inc., as Rights Agent (the "Rights Agent"). Capitalized terms used in this report and not otherwise defined have the definitions ascribed to them in the Rights Agreement.
On January 13, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company determined that certain shareholders had become Acquiring Persons pursuant to the Rights Agreement, causing a Flip-In Event, and the Board set December 13, 2023 as the Distribution Date in accordance with the Rights Agreement.
In accordance with Section 24 of the Rights Agreement, the Board has directed the Company to exchange (the “Exchange”) each previously issued Right which has not become void for one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the Common Stock”). The Exchange will result in the issuance of approximately 30,240,714 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate to holders.
Accordingly, shareholders other than the Acquiring Persons will receive one share of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock that they owned as of the Distribution Date at no additional cost and with no action on their part. Shareholders will receive a letter from the Rights Agent with more information. The Exchange may constitute a taxable event to shareholders. Each shareholder should seek his or her own advice as to tax and related matters concerning the Exchange and his or her ownership of stock in the Company.
Additionally, the Board also ratified the original Rights dividend and the adoption of the Rights Agreement under Maryland law as of August 18, 2023 and approved the filing of Articles of Validation (the “Articles of Validation”), which validated the Articles Supplementary originally filed with the Maryland State Department of Assessments & Taxation (“SDAT”) on August 29, 2023. The Articles of Validation were filed with SDAT on January 16, 2024.
On April 13, 2023, the Executive Committee of the Board determined an estimated net asset value (“NAV”) per share of our Common Stock of $6.25 per share as of December 31, 2022. This determination was reported by the Company in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 18, 2023.
The NAV per share of our Common Stock, determined as of December 31, 2022, was based on estimated NAV attributable to Common Stock holders of $227,618,000 divided by 36,410,684 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and operating partnership units (“OP Units”).
As a result of the issuance of approximately 30,240,714 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Exchange, the NAV per share of Common Stock as of December 31, 2022, would be, on a proforma basis, $3.42 per share of Common Stock and OP Unit.
The Company has not calculated, and the Board has not evaluated or determined, either the NAV or the NAV per share of Common Stock and OP Unit since its determination described above. The proforma calculation is provided for shareholders and their respective investment advisors and solely for information purposes only.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On January 15, 2024, the Company issued a press release disclosing the Company’s actions pursuant to the Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The information provided pursuant to this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1 in Item 9.01, are “furnished” and shall not be deemed to be “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filings. The furnishing of the remarks is not intended to constitute a representation that such furnishing is required by Regulation FD or that the remarks include material investor information that is not otherwise publicly available. In addition, the Company does not assume any obligation to update such information in the future.
