Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 15, 2022, Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. completed an underwritten public offering of $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 5.950% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”), which are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc.
The terms of the Notes are governed by a base indenture, dated as of October 2, 2017, by and among Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P., as issuer, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., as guarantor, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor in interest to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a supplemental indenture, dated as of September 15, 2022, by and among Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P., Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and the Trustee.
The base indenture and the supplemental indenture contain various restrictive covenants, including limitations on Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s ability to incur additional indebtedness and requirements to maintain a pool of unencumbered assets. Copies of the base indenture and the supplemental indenture, including the form of the Notes and the guarantee, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, are attached as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form
8-K.
The base indenture as supplemented by the supplemental indenture is referred to herein collectively as the indenture.
The offering of the Notes was made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2021 (Registration Nos.
333-255579
and
333-255579-01),
a base prospectus, dated April 28, 2021, included as part of the registration statement, and a prospectus supplement, dated September 8, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with the filing of the prospectus supplement, we are filing as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form
8-K
an opinion of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s counsel, Venable LLP, regarding certain Maryland law issues, and as Exhibit 5.2 to this Current Report on Form

an opinion of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s counsel, Latham & Watkins LLP, regarding the validity of the Notes and related guarantee.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On September 15, 2022, Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. completed an underwritten public offering of $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Notes. The Notes were offered at 99.614% of the principal amount thereof. The Notes are Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s general unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of its other unsecured senior indebtedness. However, the Notes are effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s existing and future secured indebtedness from time to time outstanding and to all existing and future liabilities and preferred equity of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s subsidiaries. The Notes bear interest at 5.950% per annum. Interest on the Notes is payable on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning February 15, 2023, until the maturity date of February 15, 2028. Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. Copies of the base indenture and supplemental indenture, including the forms of the Notes and guarantee of the Notes by Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, are attached as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form
8-K.
At any time up to, but not including, January 15, 2028, the Notes will be redeemable in whole or in part from time to time, at Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s option and in Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s sole discretion, at a redemption price equal to the sum of:
 
   
100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the redemption date; and
 
   
a make-whole premium.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Notes are redeemed on or after January 15, 2028, the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the redemption date.

Certain events are considered events of default, which may result in the accelerated maturity of the Notes, including:
 
   
default for thirty (30) days in the payment of any installment of interest under the Notes;
 
   
default in the payment of the principal amount or redemption price due with respect to the Notes, when the same becomes due and payable; provided, however, that a valid extension of the maturity of the Notes in accordance with the terms of the indenture shall not constitute a default in the payment of principal;
 
   
Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s failure to comply with any of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.’s other agreements in the Notes or the indenture upon receipt by Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. of notice of such default by the Trustee or by holders of not less than twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and the operating partnership’s failure to cure (or obtain a waiver of) such default within sixty (60) days after it receives such notice;
 
   
failure to pay any debt (as defined in the indenture) (other than
non-recourse
debt (as defined in the indenture)) for money borrowed by Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. or Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. or any significant subsidiary (as defined in the indenture) in an outstanding principal amount in excess of $50,000,000 at final maturity or upon acceleration after the expiration of any applicable grace period, which debt (other than
non-recourse
debt) is not discharged, or such default in payment or acceleration is not cured or rescinded, within thirty (30) days after written notice to Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. or Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. from the Trustee (or to Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. and the Trustee from holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in principal amount of the outstanding Notes); and
 
   
certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, court appointment of a receiver, liquidator or trustee of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P., Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. or any significant subsidiary or any substantial part of their respective property, or commencement of an involuntary case or other proceeding against Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P., Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. or any significant subsidiary seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P., Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. or any significant subsidiary or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law (which involuntary case or other proceeding remains undismissed and unstayed for thirty (30) days).
