OAK BROOK, Ill., 2016-Nov-29 — /EPR Retail News/ — InvenTrust Properties Corp. (“InvenTrust” or the “Company”) announced today (11/28/2016) that in order to provide additional time to stockholders to submit paperwork to validly tender their shares, and to allow them to correct any paperwork submitted in error, the Company has decided to extend its modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer (the “Offer”) to 5:00 p.m. New York Time on Thursday, December 1, 2016. The Offer was previously scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m. New York Time on Monday, November 28, 2016.
In accordance with the terms of the Offer and subject to its conditions, tendering stockholders will specify the price or prices at which they are tendering their shares, which may not be greater than $2.94 nor less than $2.45 per share. The purchase price will be the lowest price that will enable the Company to buy up to $200 million in value of its shares of common stock pursuant to the Offer. Upon expiration, payment for the shares of common stock accepted for purchase under the Offer will occur promptly in accordance with applicable law.
None of the Company, its board of directors, or DST Systems, Inc. (“DST”), in its capacity as depositary, paying agent or information agent, makes any recommendation to stockholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their shares or as to the price or the prices at which they may choose to tender their shares. Each stockholder must make his, her or its own decision whether to tender shares, and if so, how many shares to tender and the price or prices at which to tender.
As of November 25, 2016, approximately 109.1 million shares have been tendered. Please note that the number of shares tendered may change significantly between such date and the new expiration date of December 1, 2016. In accordance with rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company may increase the number of shares accepted for payment in the Offer by up to 2% of the outstanding shares without amending or extending the Offer. This could result in the dollar value of the Offer increasing by up to approximately $42 million assuming a purchase price at the low end of the range or $51 million assuming a purchase price at the high end of the range. All shares purchased by the Company pursuant to the Offer will be purchased at the same price. InvenTrust expects to fund the tender offer with cash on hand.
Any questions or requests for assistance may be directed to DST by telephone toll free at 855-377-0510. Requests for copies of the offer to purchase, the letter of transmittal or other tender offer materials may be directed to the information agent and such copies will be furnished promptly at the Company’s expense. Stockholders may also want to consider contacting their broker dealer, commercial bank, trust company, custodian or other nominee for assistance concerning the Offer.
