As previously disclosed, the Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation of Trinity Place Holdings Inc. (the “
Company
”) includes a provision (the “
Protective
Provision
”), which is intended to help preserve certain tax benefits primarily associated with the Company’s
federal net operating losses (“
NOLs
”). The Protective Provision generally prohibits transfers of stock that
would result in a person or group of persons becoming the owner of 4.75% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock
(a “
4.75% stockholder
”), or that would result in the increase or decrease by a person or group of persons that
is an existing 4.75% stockholder of its percentage ownership interest, absent prior written approval of the Board, and provides
that any direct or indirect transfer attempted in violation of the Protective Provision will be void. The Protective Provision
also permits the Board to retroactively authorize a transfer that would otherwise be prohibited.
On July 21, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors
(the “
Board
”) authorized the previous disposition by a current 4.75% stockholder of 193,601 shares of common
stock (the "
Disposition
"). The Board determined that the Disposition did not have a material effect in this instance
on the Company's ability to utilize the NOLs and the stockholder was unaware that the Protective Provision prohibited the Disposition.
In authorizing the Disposition, the Board noted that it would
evaluate any future requests by stockholders for authorization of acquisitions or dispositions under the Protective Provisions
based on the best interests of the Company and its stockholders as they appear at the particular time, including the Company's
interest in preserving the NOLs. The Company intends to continue to actively monitor and enforce compliance with the Protective
Provisions and by this Report reminds current and prospective 4.75% stockholders of their obligations to comply with the Protective
Provision. The Company does not necessarily intend to report in the future on authorizations made by the Board under the terms
of the Protective Provision.
