LOS ANGELES, May 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. (NYSE: REXR) ("Rexford" or the "Company"), a real estate investment trust focused on creating value by investing in and operating industrial properties within Southern California infill markets, today announced that it has commenced an underwritten public offering of 13,500,000 shares of its common stock, which will be offered, at the request of the Company, by the forward purchasers (as defined below) or their affiliates in connection with the forward sale agreements described below.

Wells Fargo Securities, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan, Scotiabank and Truist Securities are acting as the joint lead book-running managers for the offering.

In connection with the offering of shares of common stock, the Company expects to enter into forward sale agreements with each of Wells Fargo Securities, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan, Scotiabank and Truist Securities (or their affiliates) (which the Company refers to as the "forward purchasers"), with respect to 13,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock. In connection with the forward sale agreements, the forward purchasers (or their affiliates) are expected to borrow from third parties and sell to the underwriters an aggregate of 13,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock. However, the forward purchasers (or their affiliates) are not required to borrow such shares if, after using commercially reasonable efforts, they are unable to borrow such shares, or if borrowing costs exceed a specified threshold or if certain specified conditions have not been satisfied. If any forward purchaser or its affiliate does not deliver and sell all of the shares of the Company's common stock to be delivered and sold by it pursuant to the terms of the underwriting agreement, the Company will issue and sell directly to the underwriters the number of shares of its common stock not delivered and sold by such forward purchaser or its affiliate, and under such circumstances the number of shares of the Company's common stock underlying the relevant forward sale agreement will be decreased by the number of shares of its common stock that the Company issues and sells.

Pursuant to the terms of the forward sale agreements, and subject to its right to elect cash or net share settlement, the Company intends to issue and sell, upon physical settlement of the forward sale agreements, up to an aggregate of 13,500,000 shares of common stock to the forward purchasers in exchange for cash proceeds per share equal to the applicable forward sale price, which will initially be equal to the price the underwriters agreed to pay the forward purchasers (or their affiliates) for each share, and will be subject to certain adjustments as provided in the forward sale agreements.

The underwriters are also expected to be granted a 30-day option to purchase up to 2,025,000 additional shares of the Company's common stock. If the option to purchase additional shares of the Company's common stock is exercised, the Company will enter into one or more additional forward sale agreements with each of the forward purchasers in respect of the number of shares of the Company's common stock that are subject to exercise of the option to purchase additional shares.

The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of its common stock by the forward purchasers (or their affiliates). The Company intends to contribute any cash proceeds that it receives upon settlement of the forward sale agreements and any additional forward sale agreements to its operating partnership in exchange for common units. The Company expects its operating partnership will use any cash proceeds that it receives upon settlement of the forward sale agreements and any additional forward sale agreements to fund potential acquisition opportunities, repay amounts outstanding from time to time under its unsecured revolving credit facility or other debt financing obligations, fund its development or redevelopment activities and/or for general corporate purposes.

The shares of common stock will be offered under the Company's effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). A final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus relating to the offering will be filed with the SEC and will be available on the SEC's website. When available, a copy of the final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus relating to the offering may be obtained from Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, 500 West 33rd Street, New York, New York 10001, Attention: Equity Syndicate Department, telephone: (800) 326-5897, email: cmclientsupport@wellsfargo.com; Goldman Sachs & Co.
