Reference is made to the initial statement on Schedule 13D (the “Initial Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 11, 2014 by Urban Partners II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Urban II”), Richard Ressler, Avraham Shemesh, Shaul Kuba and CIM Service Provider, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CIM Manager”), and relates to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Shares”) of CIM Commercial Trust Corporation, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Issuer”), as further amended by Amendment No. 1 dated September 19, 2016 (“Amendment No. 1”), Amendment No. 2 dated June 14, 2017 (“Amendment No. 2”), Amendment No. 3 dated December 20, 2017 (“Amendment No. 3”), Amendment No. 4, dated March 19, 2019 (“Amendment No. 4”), Amendment No. 5, dated August 13, 2019 (“Amendment No. 5”), Amendment No. 6, dated August 16, 2019 (“Amendment No. 6”), Amendment No. 7, dated August 27, 2019 (“Amendment No. 7”), Amendment No. 8, dated September 19, 2019 (“Amendment No. 8”), Amendment No. 9, dated October 16, 2019 (“Amendment No. 9”), Amendment No. 10, dated November 13, 2019 (“Amendment No. 10”), Amendment No. 11, dated April 10, 2020 (“Amendment No. 11”), and Amendment No. 12, dated June 1, 2021 (“Amendment No. 12” and the Initial Statement, together with Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2, Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 4, Amendment No. 5, Amendment No. 6, Amendment No. 7, Amendment No. 8, Amendment No. 9, Amendment No. 10, Amendment No. 11 and Amendment No. 12, the “Schedule 13D Filing”). The address of the principal executive office of the Issuer is 17950 Preston Road, Suite 600, Dallas, Texas 75252.

This Amendment No. 13 to the Schedule 13D Filing (this “Amendment No. 13”) is being filed in connection with an update to the intent of the Reporting Persons to participate in the rights offering announced by the Issuer on June 1, 2021 (the “Rights Offering”).

Except as otherwise described herein, the information contained in the Schedule 13D Filing remains in effect. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment No. 13 shall have the respective meanings set forth with respect thereto in the Schedule 13D Filing.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Each of CIM Manager, CIM Urban Sponsor, LLC and CIM Capital, LLC (together, the “CIM Affiliates”) will exercise in full its subscription right to acquire one Common Share at the subscription price of $9.25 per share (the “Subscription Price”) for each Common Share owned by such CIM Affiliate as of the record date of the Rights Offering. In addition, the CIM Affiliates intend to oversubscribe for up to an additional 3,000,000 Common Shares. If allotted, the CIM Affiliates will acquire an aggregate of up to approximately 6,000,000 Common Shares in the Rights Offering at a price equal to the Subscription Price.

Richard Ressler, Avraham Shemesh and Shaul Kuba will each exercise in full their subscription right with respect to Common Shares controlled by them (other than through the CIM Affiliates) to acquire one Common Share at the Subscription Price for each Common Share owned as of the record date of the Rights Offering and intend to oversubscribe for 102,190, 34,796 and 34,796 Common Shares, respectively, which, if allotted, will equal a total subscription of 112,409, 40,000 and 40,000 Common Shares respectively.

As reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 10, 2021, it is likely that the Issuer will seek to pay some or part of the asset management fees payable to CIM Capital, LLC for part of 2021 in shares of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Issuer in lieu of cash payment.

As permitted by law, the Reporting Persons may purchase additional Common Shares or related securities or may dispose of all or a portion of the Common Shares or related securities that they now beneficially own or may hereafter acquire in open market or privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including to and/or from CIM Group and its affiliates.

Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not have any current plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, Messrs. Ressler, Shemesh and Kuba are members of the board of directors of the Issuer and, as such, may, from time to time, be involved in discussions which relate to one or more of such matters. Each of Messrs. Ressler, Shemesh and Kuba disclaims any obligation to report on any plan or proposal with respect to any of such matters that develops or occurs as a result of his role as a director of the Issuer and participation in decisions regarding the Issuer’s actions.
