ITEM 1.01 | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On March 5, 2026, (the “Effective Date”), MDR Ashley Plaza, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Seller”), entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”), with HPX Goldsboro Ashley Center LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser”), whereby the Purchaser agreed to acquire (the “Acquisition”) a 156,012 square foot retail property located at 201–221 North Berkeley Boulevard in Goldsboro, North Carolina (the “Ashley Plaza Property”). The total consideration for the Ashley Plaza Property is $16,600,000 (the “Consideration”), subject to the prorations and adjustments described in the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Consideration is to be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller at the Closing (as that term is defined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement). The Purchaser is required to make an earnest money deposit of (i) $150,000 within two business days of the Effective Date and (ii) $150,000 within three business days after the end of the Due Diligence Period (as defined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement).
The Purchase and Sale Agreement contains provisions, representations, warranties, covenants, conditions and indemnities that are customary and standard for the real estate industry and the sale of commercial real property. The Acquisition is expected to close within 90 days. Several conditions to closing on the Acquisition remain to be satisfied, and there can be no assurance that the Purchaser will complete the transaction on the general terms described above or at all.
The foregoing description of the Purchase and Sale Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference in this Item 1.01.

-5-
The Initial Deposit, Second Deposit, and Extension Deposit (if applicable), shall collectively be referred to herein as the “Deposit”, and as such term is used in this Agreement, it shall mean the then current aggregate Deposit held by the Title Company in accordance with this Agreement. The entire amount of the Deposit shall be immediately refunded to Buyer if Seller is unable or fails to perform its obligations under this Agreement and this Agreement is terminated or as otherwise specifically set forth herein. In the event of a breach of this Agreement by Buyer, the Deposit together with any and all interest to the extent earned shall be applied as provided in Section 20 below. If the Closing occurs, the Deposit together with any and all interest permitted shall be applied against the Purchase Price. If the Title Company places the Deposit (or any portion thereof) into an interest-bearing account, all interest earned thereon shall be the sole property of Buyer and, if the Closing occurs, shall be credited against the Purchase Price due at Closing. If this Agreement is terminated and the Deposit is returned to Buyer, all such interest shall also be paid to Buyer.

The conditions set forth in this Section 7.1 are solely for the benefit of Buyer and may be waived only by Buyer. At all times Buyer has the right to waive any condition.

Seller represents and warrants the following to be true as of the Effective Date and the Closing Date:
-25-
violation of any environmental laws respecting the Property that has not been cured; (ii) there exists no claim, pending, or threatened, relating to any alleged violation of environmental laws on the Property, or from the suspected presence of hazardous substances thereon, or relating to any environmental damages; and (iii) no underground or above ground chemical treatment or storage tanks, or gas or oil wells, are found at the Property.

Except as otherwise specifically set forth in Schedule 1 and/or Schedule 2, the following are true as of the Effective Date and shall be true as of the Closing Date:The term of each of the Leases has commenced and each Tenant thereunder is occupying the space demised to it and has commenced the payment of rent;
-26-
Seller has not granted any person or entity any right or option to acquire the Property, or any part thereof or interest therein and there are no other agreements affecting the Property.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, if Seller becomes aware during the pendency of this Agreement prior to Closing of any matters which make any of its representations or warranties untrue in any material respect, Seller shall promptly disclose such matters to Buyer in writing. In the event that Seller so discloses any matters which make any Seller’s representations and warranties so untrue in any material respect or in the event that Buyer otherwise becomes aware during the pendency of this Agreement prior to Closing of any matters which so make any of Seller’s representations or warranties untrue in any material respect, Seller shall bear no liability for such matters (provided that such untruth is not the result of Seller’s breach
-27-
of any express covenant set forth in this Agreement), but shall have the opportunity to cure such matters prior to Closing. If Seller fails to cure such matters prior to Closing, or indicates to Buyer that it does not intend to cure such matters prior to Closing, then Buyer shall have the right to elect in writing on or before the Closing Date either (i) to waive such matters and complete the purchase of the Property without reduction of the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; or (ii) as to any matters disclosed following the expiration of the Due Diligence Period, to terminate this Agreement if the failure of such representations or warranties would, individually or in the aggregate, result in an adverse impact or cost on or to the Property or Buyer, and receive a return of the Deposit as its sole and exclusive remedy.
No claim for a breach of any of Seller’s representations or warranties shall be actionable or payable if such breach is due to or is based on a condition, state of facts that were disclosed to Buyer in writing or other matter that was known to Buyer or disclosed to Buyer or a Buyer Party in this Agreement, the Due Diligence Materials, the Closing Documents or an estoppel certificate, or in writing delivered to Buyer or its Affiliate prior to Closing.
The parties agree that (i) Seller’s representations and warranties contained in Sections 12 and 13 of this Agreement shall survive Closing for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date (the “Limitation Period”), and (ii) Buyer shall be entitled to recover only its actual damages for Seller’s breach of any of the representations and warranties only in the event its actual damages for such breach(es) exceed $25,000.00 in the aggregate, and (x) in an amount which shall not exceed $1,000,000.00 in the aggregate for Seller’s fraud or intentional misrepresentation, and (y) in an amount which shall not exceed $300,000.00 in the aggregate for all other Seller’s not constituting fraud or intentional misrepresentation. Buyer shall provide actual written notice to Seller of any breach of such representations and warranties and shall allow Seller thirty (30) days within which to cure such breach, or, if such breach cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, an additional reasonable time period, so long as such cure has been commenced within such 30-day period and diligently pursued. If Seller fails to cure such breach after receipt of actual written notice and within such cure period, Buyer’s sole remedy shall be an action at law for only actual damages as a consequence thereof, which must be commenced, if at all, within the Limitation Period; provided, however, that if within the Limitation Period Buyer gives Seller written notice of such a breach and Seller commences to cure and thereafter terminates such cure effort, Buyer shall have an additional thirty (30) days form the date of such termination within which to commence an action at law for damages as a consequence of Seller’s failure to cure. The Limitation Period referred to herein shall apply to known as well as unknown breaches of such representations and warranties.
