Item 7.01   Regulation FD Disclosure

On September 27, 2019, RW Holdings NNN REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release regarding the information disclosed below under Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.  A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1 and information set forth therein, is deemed to have been furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Item 8.01   Other Events

As the Company has previously disclosed, since 2017, the SEC has been conducting an investigation related to, among other things, the advertising and sale of securities in connection with the Company’s registered public offering of securities and compliance with broker-dealer regulations. The Company cooperated with the SEC in this matter.

Recently, the Company’s sponsor, BrixInvest, LLC (the “Sponsor”), proposed a settlement of the investigation to the SEC and, on September 26, 2019, the SEC accepted the settlement and entered an order (the “Order”) instituting proceedings against the Sponsor pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act and Section 21C of the Exchange Act. The Company is not a party to the settlement and understands that the staff of the enforcement division of the SEC does not to intend to recommend any action against the Company.

Under the settlement, the Sponsor, without denying or admitting any substantive findings in the Order, consented to entry of the Order, finding violations by it of Section 5(b)(1) of the Securities Act and Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act.  The Order does not find that the Sponsor violated any anti-fraud provisions of the federal securities laws or any other law and does not find any criminal violations or any scienter based violation involving the offer and sale of securities.

Under the terms of the Order, the Sponsor agreed to (i) cease-and-desist from committing or causing any future violations of Section 5(b) of the Securities Act and Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act, (ii) pay to the SEC a civil money penalty in the amount of $300,000 within 14 days of the entry of the Order, and (iii) undertake that any real estate investment trust which is or was formed, organized, or advised by it, including the Company, will not distribute securities except through a registered broker-dealer.  Although the Company is not a party to the settlement or the Order, the Sponsor’s undertaking in the Order will result in the securities the Company issues in any offering, including its registered public offering, being distributed only through a registered broker-dealer.
