Valuation Policies

On April 20, 2020, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Cole Office & Industrial REIT (CCIT III), Inc. (the “Company”) determined to engage the Company’s independent valuation expert to assist the Board with updating its per share net asset value (“NAV”) on a quarterly, instead of an annual, basis (the “Quarterly Valuations”) during the period of economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic to help ensure that the real estate values included in the Company’s NAV were current. Given the relative stability of the Company’s rent collections and the per share NAV for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to cease incurring the additional costs associated with the Quarterly Valuations and return to updating the Company’s NAV on an annual basis in accordance with its valuation policies.

Distributions

On September 28, 2020, the Board authorized a distribution for the month of September 2020 of $0.0322 per share of the Company’s Class A and Class T common stock, less the per share distribution and stockholder servicing fees that are payable with respect to shares of Class T common stock (as such fees are calculated on a daily basis for the period of September 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020). On August 30, 2020, the Board approved the suspension of the Company’s second amended and restated distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), and, therefore, further distributions will be paid in cash to all stockholders unless and until the DRIP is reinstated. The distribution for each class of common stock is payable to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 29, 2020 and will be paid in cash on October 1, 2020.

SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
