Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 21, 2021 (the “Schedule 13D”) relates to the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and the Class C Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (together, the “Common Stock”), of Corporate Property Associates 18 - Global Incorporated (the “Company”), which classes of Common Stock have the same voting rights and privileges, and is being filed pursuant to Rules 13d-1 and 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D. Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not defined in this Amendment No. 1 shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

The Reporting Persons hold their stake for investment purposes. Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Reporting Persons assist the Company with evaluating investment opportunities, managing its portfolio, structuring and negotiating investments and related mortgage financing, evaluating liquidity alternatives and various other tasks associated with the day-to-day management of the Company.

In consideration for such services, the Reporting Persons receive advisory related fees. Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Company may, after consultation with the advisor, elect to pay all or a portion of the fees that it owes under the Advisory Agreement in either cash or common stock of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s bylaws, the Reporting Persons are prohibited from voting in connection with (i) the removal of CAM as advisor to the Company, (ii) the removal of a director of the Company or (iii) any transaction between the Company and the Reporting Persons or any affiliate of the Reporting Persons.

In its initial offering documents, the Company stated its intention to consider alternatives for providing liquidity to its stockholders beginning after the seventh anniversary of the closing of its initial public offering. The Reporting Persons and their affiliates, as the advisor to the Company, have presented various liquidity alternatives to the Company’s board of directors, including, without limitation, a proposal outlining a potential business combination transaction involving one or more of the Reporting Persons or their respective affiliates, a merger and/or sale of assets either on a portfolio basis or individually, or a listing or offering of the Company’s shares on a stock exchange.

The execution of any liquidity transaction could be affected by a variety of factors, such as general economic conditions, stock market volatility, conditions in the commercial real estate market, the performance of the Company’s or the Reporting Person’s portfolio, and the availability of financing on acceptable terms, many of which are outside of the Reporting Person’s control. There can be no assurance that a liquidity transaction will occur in the near future or at all.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) Holdco owns 5,753,313 shares of Common Stock, which represents 3.77% of all outstanding shares of Common Stock, based upon 152,611,041 shares of Common Stock outstanding on August 24, 2021. CAM owns 1,908,082 shares of Common Stock, which represents 1.25% of all outstanding shares of Common Stock, based upon 152,611,041 shares of Common Stock outstanding on August 24, 2021. Carey REIT owns 204,591 shares of Common Stock, which represents 0.13% of all outstanding shares of Common Stock, based upon 152,611,041 shares of Common Stock outstanding on August 24, 2021. Each of Holdco, CAM and Carey REIT are direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of WPC, and thus WPC may be deemed to own such shares as well.

(b) Holdco has the sole power to vote 5,753,313 shares of Common Stock and the sole power to dispose of 5,753,313 shares of Common Stock. CAM has the sole power to vote 1,908,082 shares of Common Stock, and the sole power to dispose of 1,908,082 shares of Common Stock. Carey REIT has the sole power to vote 204,591 shares of Common Stock, and the sole power to dispose of 204,591 shares of Common Stock. Each of Holdco, CAM and Carey REIT are direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of WPC, thus WPC makes all voting and investment decisions on behalf of the subsidiaries. The voting restrictions outlined in Item 4 are incorporated herein by reference.

(c) The Reporting Persons have effected the following transactions in the shares of the Company’s Common Stock during the past 60 days:

On July 8, 2021, CAM acquired 58,466 shares of Common Stock, as fees under the Advisory Agreement. The shares were valued at $8.91 per share based upon the Company’s most recently published net asset value per share.

On August 10, 2021, Holdco acquired 60,659 shares of Common Stock, as fees under the Advisory Agreement. The shares were valued at $8.91 per share based upon the Company’s most recently published net asset value per share.

None of the Reporting Persons have sold any shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) Not applicable.

The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that the Reporting Persons are, for purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Act, the beneficial owner of any securities covered by this Schedule 13D.
