Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 8, 2024, Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), entered into an Amended and Restated Capital on DemandTM Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC and BTIG, LLC, as agents (each, an “Agent,” and collectively the “Agents”), pursuant to which the Partnership may offer and sell, from time to time through or to the Agents, beneficial unit certificates representing assigned limited partnership interests (“BUCs”) in the Partnership, having an aggregate offering price of up to $50,000,000 (the “Offering”).
Under the Sales Agreement, upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, the Agents may sell the BUCs by any method permitted by law and deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Partnership may instruct the Agents not to sell BUCs if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Partnership from time to time.
The Partnership is not obligated to make any sales of the BUCs under the Sales Agreement. The offering of BUCs pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the issuance and sale of all BUCs subject to the Sales Agreement; or (ii) the termination of the Sales Agreement as permitted therein. Each Agent will act as sales agent or principal on a commercially reasonable efforts basis consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal law, rules and regulations, and the rules of the New York Stock Exchange.
The Partnership will pay the Agents a commission rate equal to 2.0% of the aggregate gross sales price of the BUCs sold. The Partnership has also agreed to reimburse the Agents for certain specified expenses, including the fees and disbursements of its legal counsel, in an amount not to exceed $50,000, as provided in the Sales Agreement. The Partnership also has agreed to provide the Agents with customary indemnification and contribution rights. Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Partnership has agreed to reimburse the Agents for the documented fees and costs of its legal counsel reasonably incurred in connection with the review and preparation of the deliverables arising from the transactions contemplated by the Sales Agreement in an amount not to exceed $12,500 per calendar year.
The foregoing description of the Sales Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Sales Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The opinion of the Partnership’s counsel regarding the validity of the BUCs that will be issued pursuant to the Sales Agreement is also filed herewith as Exhibit 5.1.
The BUCs will be sold pursuant to an effective shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which became effective on December 2, 2022 (File No. 333-268538). The Partnership also will file with the SEC a prospectus supplement relating to the Offering (the “Prospectus Supplement”), and offerings of the BUCs will be made only by means of the Prospectus Supplement. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the BUCs discussed herein, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation, or sale of BUCs in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
