ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
Advisory Agreement Amendment
On January 8, 2013, KBS Legacy Partners Apartment REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) and KBS Capital Advisors LLC, the Company’s external advisor (the “Advisor”), entered into an amendment to the advisory agreement between the parties. The amendment defers the Company’s obligation to pay asset management fees, without interest, accruing from February 1, 2013 through July 31, 2013. The Advisor further agrees that the Company will only be obligated to pay the Advisor such deferred amounts if and to the extent that the Company’s funds from operations, as such term is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and interpreted by the Company, as adjusted for the effects of straight-line rents and acquisition costs and expenses (“AFFO”) for the immediately preceding month exceeds the amount of distributions declared for record dates of such prior month (an “AFFO Surplus”). The amount of any AFFO Surplus in a given month shall be applied first to pay to the Advisor asset management fees currently due with respect to such month (including any that would otherwise have been deferred for that month in accordance with this amendment), and then to pay asset management fees previously deferred by the Advisor in accordance with this amendment that remain unpaid. Notwithstanding the above, any and all deferred asset management fees that are unpaid shall be immediately due and payable at such time as the stockholders have received distributions in an aggregate amount equal to the sum of (i) the stockholders’ 8% return and (ii) the stockholders’ invested capital.
