The Purchase Agreement also contains additional covenants, representations and warranties that are customary of real estate purchase and sale agreements.
On January 28, 2015, we also entered into an Assignment of Purchase and Sale Agreement, or the Assignment, for our newly formed subsidiaries to assume all of GAHC3 North Carolina ALF Portfolio, LLC's rights, title and interest under the Purchase Agreement, as well as the right to exercise and enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, with respect to the North Raleigh Property and the Mooresville Property.
We intend to finance the purchase of the North Carolina ALF Portfolio from funds raised through our initial public offering.  We also anticipate paying an acquisition fee of 2.25% of the aggregate purchase price of the North Carolina ALF Portfolio to our advisor and its affiliates in connection with the acquisition of the property.  The closing of the Primary Portfolio occurred  on January 28, 2015, the closing of the Secondary Portfolio is expected to occur on June 30, 2015 and the Final Closing of the Huntersville Property is expected to occur 12 months after the date the Sellers obtain a certificate of occupancy for the Huntersville Property; however, no assurance can be provided that we will be able to purchase the Secondary Portfolio and the Huntersville Property in the anticipated timeframe, or at all since the potential acquisition of the Secondary Portfolio and the Huntersville Property are subject to substantial conditions to closing.
The material terms of the agreements discussed above are qualified in their entirety by the Purchase Agreement and the Assignment attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
