Item 8.01. Other Events.




On February 17, 2021, pursuant to Section 15(d)(1) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and Rule
12h-3
thereunder, the operating partnership filed a Form 15 to provide notice to the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") that its duty to file
reports under Section 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act with respect to its
senior notes registered pursuant to the registration statements on Form
S-4
(Registration Nos.
333-216815
and
333-216815-01)
initially filed with the SEC on March 20, 2017 and Form
S-3
(Registration Nos.
333-220618
and
333-220618-01)
initially filed with the SEC on September 25, 2017 has been suspended.
In March 2020, the SEC adopted amendments to Rule
3-10
of Regulation
S-X
and created Rule
13-01
to simplify disclosure requirements related to certain registered guaranteed
securities. As a result of the amendments to Rule
3-10
of Regulation
S-X,
subsidiary issuers of obligations guaranteed by the parent are no longer
required to provide separate financial statements, provided that the parent
guarantee is "full and unconditional," the subsidiary obligor is consolidated
into the parent company's consolidated financial statements and, subject to
certain exceptions as set forth below, the alternative disclosure required by
Rule
13-01
is provided, which includes narrative disclosure and summarized financial
information. Prior to the amendment, a parent company was required to provide
certain financial information about the subsidiary on an ongoing basis until the
guaranteed debt was no longer outstanding.
Spirit may guarantee the registered debt securities that the operating
partnership offers and sells from time to time pursuant to a registration
statement, including our and the operating partnership's effective registration

statement on Form
S-3
(File Nos.
333-249459
and
333-249459-01)
initially filed with the SEC on October 13, 2020. Such registered debt
securities will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Spirit.
In accordance with the SEC rules, separate consolidated financial statements of
the operating partnership are not expected to be presented or incorporated by
reference into the applicable prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus
or the registration statements of which they form a part for periods following
the filing of Spirit's and the operating partnership's Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Furthermore, as permitted under Rule
13-01(a)(4)(vi)
of Regulation
S-X,
we do not expect to present or incorporate by reference into the applicable
prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus or the registration statements
of which they form a part summarized financial information for the operating
partnership following the filing of Spirit's and the operating partnership's
Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2020 because the assets, liabilities and results
of operations of the operating partnership are not materially different than the
corresponding amounts in Spirit's consolidated financial statements that have
been and will be incorporated by reference into the applicable prospectus
supplement and accompanying prospectus and the registration statements of which
they form a part, and management believes such summarized financial information
would be repetitive and would not provide incremental value to investors.
This Current Report on Form
8-K
shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any
securities nor will there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in
which, or to any person to whom, such offer, solicitation or sale would be
unlawful.
