Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Loan Agreement
On October 3, 2025, IIP Operating Partnership,
LP (“IIP LP”), the operating partnership of Innovative Industrial Properties, Inc. (the “Company”)
entered into a Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), dated as of October 3, 2026, by and among IIP LP, the guarantors
party thereto, including IIP Life Science Investments LLC (“IIP Life Science”), the lenders party thereto and East
West Bank, as agent, sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner. Under the Loan Agreement, IIP LP has a revolving line of credit available
up to $100 million until the maturity date on October 3, 2028. The Loan Agreement includes a $35 million accordion feature under
which the revolving line of credit may be expanded by agreement of the parties from $100 million to up to $135 million if and
to the extent that the lenders revise their credit commitments to encompass a larger facility. The availability of credit at any given
time under the Loan Agreement will be constrained by the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, including the amount of collateral
available and a borrowing base formula based upon the value of eligible investments in certain securities and an eligible loan receivable,
and other restrictions contained in the Loan Agreement. All obligations under the credit facility are secured by substantial assets of
the loan parties, including a revolving credit note issued by IQHQ, LP to IIP Life Science and Series G-1 Cumulative Redeemable Preferred
Stock of IQHQ, Inc. and a corresponding warrant exercisable for common equity units of IQHQ Holdings, LP issued to IIP Life
Science.
Borrowings under the Loan Agreement will bear interest
on the outstanding daily balance at a rate of interest per annum equal to the greater of (i) the one-month Secured Overnight Financing
Rate, as administered by CME Group Benchmark Administration, plus 2.0% and (ii) 6.10%.
The Loan Agreement contains various restrictive
and affirmative covenants, including required financial reporting, limitations on the ability to grant liens, make loans or other investments,
incur additional debt, merge or consolidate with or into another person, or enter into transactions with affiliates, and other customary
restrictions and limitations.
The Loan Agreement does not contain any material
financial ratio or coverage ratio covenants, other than (i) a liquidity covenant, which is measured as of the end of each fiscal
quarter, and (ii) a debt service coverage ratio covenant. The debt service coverage ratio is defined as the ratio of (i) consolidated
EBITDA to (ii) debt service costs (the “Debt Service Coverage Ratio”). The Loan Agreement requires that the Debt
Service Coverage Ratio be not less than 2.0 to 1.0, measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter.
The above description is a summary of certain terms
of the Loan Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Loan Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto
and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation
under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The disclosure under Item 1.01 above is incorporated
herein by reference.
