Item 1. Business
Organization
We were incorporated on December 19, 2013 as a Maryland corporation and intend to elect and qualify to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014. On April 24, 2014, we commenced our IPO on a "reasonable best efforts" basis of up to 30.0 million shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at a price of $25.00 per share, subject to certain volume and other discounts, pursuant to our registration statement on Form S-11, as amended (File No. 333-194135) (the "Registration Statement") filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Registration Statement also covers up to 10.5 million shares available pursuant to a distribution reinvestment plan (the "DRIP") under which our common stockholders may elect to have their distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock at a price of $23.75 per share, which is equal to 95% of the offering price in the IPO.
