INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
An investment in Zero Coupon Pharmacy VII DST may offer the following benefits:
- National, Investment Grade Tenant – The tenants under the leases are affiliates of CVS Health (NYSE: CVS). CVS Health guarantees the payment of all rent and the performance of all obligations by the tenants under the leases. CVS Health offers more than 9,600 retail pharmacies and more than 1,100 walk-in medical clinics, and is a leading pharmacy benefits manager with nearly 80 million plan members, a dedicated senior pharmacy care business serving more than one million patients per year and expanding specialty pharmacy services. As of the date of this Memorandum, CVS Health has a credit rating of BBB+ (stable) from Standard & Poor’s, as last updated May 9, 2011, and Baa1 (stable) from Moody’s, as last updated September 23, 2013.
- Long-term Leases – Each lease has a remaining lease term of approximately 25 years with 10 five-year renewal options. Each lease requires the tenant to pay monthly rent in a fixed amount.
- Net Leases – All of the leases are absolute “net” leases, with the tenant directly responsible for real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses. See “Summary of the Leases” in the Memorandum.
- High-Leverage, Long-term, Fixed-Rate, Amortizing Financing – The Property is highly leveraged and, by design, will produce no cash flow to maximize the amortization. Each Loan has a maturity date of October 10, 2038 and a fixed interest rate equal to 3.416% per annum. Principal is amortized over the term of each Loan. See “Financing Terms” in the Memorandum. An investment in Zero Coupon Pharmacy VII DST may be appropriate for Investors who are selling a property and looking for suitable replacement property to effectuate a Section 1031 Exchange, particularly where an Investor’s previous property was encumbered by high levels of debt.
- Passive Loss Benefits – An Investor’s passive losses, if any, from an investment in Zero Coupon Pharmacy VII DST may be used to offset the Investor’s other passive income.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The 1031 Exchange
The property owned by Trust VII is highly leveraged and, by design, will produce no cash flow. An investment in the Trust may be especially appropriate for those selling a property and looking for suitable replacement property to execute a 1031 exchange.
To meet IRS rules and accomplish a successful 1031 exchange, there must be equal or greater debt on the replacement property. Many Investors own business/income-producing properties that are encumbered by high levels of debt or Investors may be interested in increasing the amount of debt on their investment, therefore creating the need for a highly leveraged opportunity.
Passive Activity Losses for Cash Investors – PIG/PAL Strategy
This investment may generate passive activity losses (PAL) for cash Investors. Generally, for cash investors, passive activity losses will arise in a year if the sum of (a) deductible loan payments (e.g., payments of interest on the Loans) and (b) any depreciation to which an investor is entitled, exceeds the income generated by the investment in the year.
Passive activity losses may be used to offset passive income generated (PIG) by other passive real estate investments. Given the complex nature of such tax strategies, it is imperative that Investors consult their own accounting and tax professionals to determine if the PIG/PAL strategy is applicable to their particular situation. Each Investor’s tax circumstances are unique, and this information does not constitute tax advice for any particular Investor.
THE FINANCING
Loans
The Trust VII Properties are similarly financed by 10 separate mortgage loans on each of the Trust VII Properties, as described in this Memorandum, collectively referred to as the Trust VII Loans, from the Lender, in the aggregate original principal amount of $40,777,337.99.
Financing Terms
The monthly debt service payment includes payment of interest and principal, amortized over each Loan term. The maturity date for the Loans is October 10, 2038 and the Loans bear interest at a fixed rate equal to 3.416% per annum. Through financing with monthly debt service equal to monthly base rent, a high loan-to-value ratio can be achieved, while also fully amortizing the Loans within the initial lease terms. All income from the Properties will be used to pay the Loans and thus no cash will be available for distribution to Investors while the Loans are outstanding.
THE OFFERING
The Offerings are designated for accredited investors seeking to participate in a tax-deferred exchange as well as those seeking a quality, multiple-owner real estate investment. Only accredited investors may purchase interests in the Offerings. For more information, see “Summary of the Offerings” and “The Offerings” in the Memorandum.
