8. SERIES B MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

In August 2014, the Company closed on a private placement offering of its mandatorily redeemable Series B Preferred Stock. The financing, which will be funded in installments, should be completed no later than the one year anniversary of the initial investment. At the conclusion of the funding period, the Company expects to generate a total capital contribution of $40.0 million which is to be used for Series B Preferred investor approved property acquisitions. Certain specified management decisions must be approved in advance by the Series B Preferred investor and upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Preferred Stock investor has certain additional rights. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had issued 16,600 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock for $16,600,000. The Company has classified the Series B Preferred Stock as a liability in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” which states that mandatorily redeemable financial instruments should be classified as liabilities and the related dividend payments and amortization of issuance costs are treated as a component of interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Series B preferred stock has a $0.01 par value and a $1,000 liquidation preference. The Series B preferred stock shall be redeemed through a cash payment of the face value of the shares outstanding at redemption. The preferred return on the funds invested is 14% (10% shall be paid on a monthly basis and the remaining 4% shall accrue and compound monthly payable at the redemption date).
