Cancels Special Meeting of Shareholders and Terminates Exchange Offer
NORFOLK, NE, September 17, 2015 — Condor Hospitality Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDOR), a hotel focused real estate investment trust (REIT), announced today that it has cancelled its special meeting of shareholders scheduled for October 8, 2015, at 10:00 a.m., central time, at the Hilton Omaha, 1001 Cass Street, Omaha, Nebraska.
The company has also terminated its offer to exchange shares of the company’s common stock for shares of the company’s 8% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock and 10% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock. The special meeting was being held to obtain shareholder approvals that were conditions to the company’s exchange offer of common stock for preferred stock.
“I appreciated the opportunity to have constructive discussions with our shareholders concerning our company and the exchange offer,” said J. William Blackham, President and CEO of Condor. “However, with the volatility and unfavorable direction of the stock markets and the current price of the company’s common stock, we deemed it prudent at this point in time to cancel the special meeting and terminate the exchange offer for the preferred stock.”
The offer to exchange 5.38 shares of common stock for each share of 8% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock and 13.71 shares of common stock for each share of 10% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock commenced August 6, 2015. The exchange offer was previously extended and scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 12, 2015. As of September 16, 2015, 14,633 shares of 8% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock and 10,860 shares of 10% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock were tendered and not withdrawn. These shares will not be accepted and will be promptly returned to their holders. This press release confirms formal termination of the exchange offer. The company reserves the right to commence an exchange offer at a later date, but is under no obligation to do so.
