Item 8.01. Other Events

 

Term Sheet for Business Combination

 

On October 6, 2019, the Company received a term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) concerning a proposed business combination transaction contemplating the contribution of a multi-billion dollar real estate asset portfolio in exchange for a combination of securities issued by the Company to be agreed upon by the asset contribution party. As part of the proposed transaction, the Company would also acquire a public non-traded REIT with a portfolio of commercial development assets. In addition to the contribution of assets, the proposing company intends to bring an experienced management team to the Company.

 

Based on the proposed assets to be contributed, the transaction could be accretive to the current shareholder base with the acquisition and on a going-forward basis.

 

The proposed transaction has been presented to the Board of the Company. The parties to the transaction have engaged various consultants and professionals who are actively conducting due diligence on the transaction. As described herein, the Company is negotiating with the proposing company concerning the terms and conditions of definitive agreements to carry out the proposed business combination. However, no definitive agreement has been reached concerning the proposed business combination transaction and there can be no assurance that any business combination will result from these negotiations.

 

A copy of the Term Sheet is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Important factors, among others, that may affect actual results or outcomes include: the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transactions; the Company’s ability to meet the listing standards of the NYSE American following the consummation of the proposed transactions; unexpected costs, liabilities or delays related to the proposed transactions; the effect of the announcement of the proposed transactions on the ability of the Company retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with customers, suppliers and others with whom it does business; potential litigation involving the Company; and general economic and market conditions impacting demand for the Company’s services. Additional risks and factors that may affect results are set forth in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 18, 2018 and its subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings with the SEC, which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Readers are urged to consider these factors carefully in evaluating these forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
