Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Financial Statements and
As part of its strategy to address its needs for liquidity and capital resources, Roberts Realty Investors, Inc. entered into a contract on June 30, 2011 to sell its 11-acre Northridge land parcel to Roberts Properties, Inc., which is wholly owned by Mr. Charles S. Roberts, the President, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman of the Board of Roberts Realty. Under the sales contract as amended, the closing was scheduled to occur no later than October 30, 2012. In October 2012, Roberts Properties requested an extension of the closing date to January 31, 2013. Roberts Properties obtained the land disturbance, water, and sewer permits for the Northridge land in July 2012. These entitlements enhance and benefit the Northridge land. Roberts Properties is currently seeking the equity and debt required to purchase the Northridge land. Based on this progress, on October 22, 2012, the sales contract was amended to extend the closing date to January 31, 2013. Under the terms of the contract as amended, the purchase price remains $4,070,000, plus the reimbursement of $303,789 in development and construction expenses. At the closing, Roberts Realty would use $2,000,000 of the sale proceeds to repay its Northridge land loan.
Roberts Realty's audit committee, which is composed of three independent directors, approved the original sales contract and the contract amendments in accordance with the committee's charter and in compliance with the applicable listing rules of the NYSE MKT stock exchange. Roberts Realty's board of directors also approved the original sales contract and the contract amendments in accordance with Roberts Realty's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, with Mr. Roberts abstaining from all votes.
The above description of the material terms of the fifth amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Fifth Amendment to Sales Contract, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated into this Item 1.01 by this reference.
