Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
OnJune 1, 2022 , (the "Closing Date"),CMFT Real Estate Securities I, LLC (the "Seller"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary ofCIM Real Estate Finance Trust (the "Company"), entered into a Master Repurchase Agreement withJ.P. Morgan Securities LLC (the "Buyer"), in which the Buyer and Seller may agree to transfer securities or other assets ("Securities") against the transfer of funds by the Buyer, with a simultaneous agreement by the Buyer to transfer to Seller such Securities at a date certain or on demand, against the transfer of funds by the Seller. Pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement, the initial purchase price for an asset is the price at which Securities are transferred by Seller to Buyer (the "Purchase Price") and thereafter, except where Buyer and Seller agree otherwise, such price increased by the amount of any cash transferred as a margin deficit or margin excess. The repurchase price of a purchased asset is equal to the sum of the Purchase Price and a pricing rate designated by the Buyer in its sole discretion ("Price Differential") as of the date of such determination.
The foregoing summary of the Repurchase Agreement does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Repurchase Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.

(now known asThe Necessity Retail REIT Operating Partnership, L.P. ) ("RTL OP"), and certain of their subsidiaries (collectively, the "Purchaser"). The Purchaser is not affiliated with the Seller. Under the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Seller agreed to sell to the Purchaser 79 shopping centers and two single-tenant properties encompassing approximately 9.5 million gross rentable square feet of commercial space across 27 states for total consideration of$1.32 billion (the "Purchase Price").

The sale of 80 properties under contract for sale pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement closed in tranches during the first and second quarters of 2022 for total consideration of$1.28 billion , which consisted of$1.22 billion in cash proceeds (inclusive of$23.5 million in earnout proceeds) and$53.4 million of RTL Common Stock, which shares are restricted and subject to certain registration rights as described in the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The remaining property pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement is expected to close during the second quarter of 2022. The Company previously reported in its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with theSecurities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") onFebruary 15, 2022 , that it completed the disposition of 44 properties onFebruary 11, 2022 (the "First Closing Properties ").
