Item 5.03.  Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On June 27, 2013, Select Income REIT, or the Company, amended its declaration of trust, increasing the number of the Company's authorized shares of beneficial interest from 50,000,000 to 75,000,000.  All of the Company's authorized shares are currently classified as common shares, $.01 par value per share.
Item 8.01.  Other Events.
On June 27, 2013, the Company priced an underwritten public offering of 10,500,000 common shares of beneficial interest.  The Company expects to issue and deliver these shares on or about July 2, 2013.  The public offering price was $28.25 per share.  The Company expects to use the $283.6 million of net proceeds of the offering (after deducting estimated offering expenses and underwriters' discounts) to repay amounts outstanding under its revolving credit facility and for general business purposes, including property acquisitions.  The Company also granted the underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional 1,575,000 common shares.
A prospectus supplement relating to these common shares will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
WARNING CONCERNING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
THIS CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K CONTAINS STATEMENTS WHICH CONSTITUTE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 AND OTHER SECURITIES LAWS.  THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE BASED UPON THE COMPANY'S PRESENT INTENT, BELIEFS OR EXPECTATIONS, BUT FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE NOT GUARANTEED TO OCCUR AND MAY NOT OCCUR FOR VARIOUS REASONS, INCLUDING SOME REASONS WHICH ARE BEYOND THE COMPANY'S CONTROL.  FOR EXAMPLE:
·
THIS REPORT STATES THAT THE COMPANY EXPECTS TO ISSUE AND DELIVER THE COMMON SHARES ON OR ABOUT JULY 2, 2013.  IN FACT, THE ISSUANCE AND DELIVERY OF THESE SHARES ARE SUBJECT TO VARIOUS CONDITIONS AND CONTINGENCIES AS ARE CUSTOMARY IN UNDERWRITING AGREEMENTS IN THE UNITED STATES.  IF THESE CONDITIONS ARE NOT SATISFIED OR THE SPECIFIED CONTINGENCIES DO NOT OCCUR, THIS OFFERING MAY NOT CLOSE.
·
THIS REPORT STATES THAT THE UNDERWRITERS HAVE BEEN GRANTED AN OPTION TO PURCHASE UP TO AN ADDITIONAL 1,575,000 COMMON SHARES.  AN IMPLICATION OF THIS STATEMENT MAY BE THAT THIS OPTION MAY BE EXERCISED IN WHOLE OR IN PART.  IN FACT, THE COMPANY DOES NOT KNOW WHETHER THIS OPTION, OR ANY PART OF IT, WILL BE EXERCISED, AND THE UNDERWRITERS MAY NOT DO SO.
FOR THESE REASONS, AMONG OTHERS, YOU SHOULD NOT PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE UPON THE COMPANY'S FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS.
