KBS REIT II Closes $500-Million Financing Agreement

  • April 10, 2018
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (April 10, 2018) – KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II (“KBS REIT II”), a non-traded real estate investment trust based in Newport Beach, California, announced today the close of a up to $500 million loan facility. The two-year agreement, facilitated by Bank of America Merrill Lynch, is comprised of $375 million of term debt, which was funded at the close, and up to $125 million of revolving debt.

KBS REIT II is the owner of eight Class A office properties,
totaling 4.1 million square feet, that will collateralize the loan. The
properties secured by the portfolio include: 100-200 Campus Drive in Florham
Park, New Jersey; 300-600 Campus Drive in Florham Park, New Jersey; Willow Oaks
Corporate Center in Fairfax, Virginia; Pierre Laclede Center in Clayton,
Missouri; Union Bank Plaza in Los Angeles, California; Emerald View at Vista
Center in West Palm Beach, Florida; Granite Tower in Denver, Colorado; and
Fountainhead Plaza in Tempe, Arizona.

“KBS is particularly proud of the reputation and
relationships we have developed in the industry, which allowed for this
efficient and successful collaboration with Bank of America Merrill Lynch,”
said KBS CEO, Chuck Schreiber. “This financing gives KBS REIT II the
opportunity to further enhance our properties for the continued retention and
attraction of world-class tenants.”

“We are grateful for the trust and confidence that Bank of
America Merrill Lynch has placed in KBS REIT II,” added Robert Durand,
executive vice president of financing for KBS. “Proceeds from the loan facility
were used for the repayment of existing debt agreements and will be used for
liquidity management for the overall portfolio. In addition, we will be able to
execute on tenant and capital improvements across our properties.”

Bank of America Merrill Lynch acted as the administrative
agent, bookrunner and sole arranger of the transaction.

KBS was represented by a team from global law firm Greenberg
Traurig, LLP that included shareholder Bruce Fischer, of counsel Tatyana
Litovsky and paralegal Amanda Kennedy.
