Other Events.

On August 2, 2018, Four Corners Property Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) and Four Corners Operating Partnership, LP (the “Operating Partnership”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Barclays Capital Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters listed on Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Underwriters agreed to purchase from the Company 3,500,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company at a price of $24.00 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company also granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase an additional 525,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $24.00 per share, which the Underwriters exercised in full on August 3, 2018. The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, will be approximately $96.4 million. The offering is expected to close on August 7, 2018, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes and to fund the purchase price of previously disclosed pending acquisitions.

The Company and the Operating Partnership made certain customary representations, warranties and covenants concerning the Company and the Operating Partnership, as applicable, and the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-214908) in the Underwriting Agreement and also agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The Underwriters have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Company or its affiliates. The Underwriters have received, and may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.

A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached to this report as Exhibit 1.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The summary of the Underwriting Agreement set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 1.1. A copy of the opinion of Hogan Lovells US LLP, counsel to the Company, with respect to the legality of the Common Stock issued and sold in the offering is filed as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.
