Item 8.01. Other Events
On October 23, 2019, Reven Housing REIT, Inc. (the “Company”)
issued a press release to announce that it intends to offer up to $15 million of its newly authorized 6.0% Series A Cumulative
Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) to its stockholders of record who are
accredited investors pursuant to Rule 506(c) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The closing of the offering of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Offering”) will be conditioned, among other things,
on the Company’s acceptance of a minimum of $10 million in subscriptions for the Series A Preferred Stock and is expected
to occur (if at all) as promptly as practicable following the closing of the Company’s merger (the “Merger”)
with an affiliate of KBS Strategic Opportunity REIT, Inc. (the “Acquirer”) under the previously announced Agreement
and Plan of Merger with certain affiliates of the Acquirer (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”).
The Offering will expire at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on October
31, 2019, unless extended by the Company. Only stockholders of record of the Company who are “accredited investors”
(as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act) are eligible to participate in the Offering. The Company proposes
to consummate the closing of the Offering (the “Closing”) on or about November 4, 2019, promptly following the
closing of the Merger. It is expected that, upon the closing of the Merger, the Company’s name will be changed to Pacific
Oak Residential Trust, Inc.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering
to acquire additional residential assets or securities, and for general corporate purposes.
The shares of Series
A Preferred Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the
United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements
of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.
This Current Report
on Form 8-K is not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as, an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy
any shares of Series A Preferred Stock or other securities, nor shall there be any sale of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock
or other securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration
or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. Any offers of shares of Series A Preferred Stock
will be made only by means of private offering documents.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1
and is incorporated by reference herein.
