CEDAR REALTY TRUST ANNOUNCES FINAL PROCEEDS OF $29.00 PER SHARE TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS RESULTING FROM SALE OF ASSETS AND MERGER (8/09/22)
Cedar Board of Directors Declares Special Dividend of $19.52 Per Common Share;
Merger Consideration Will Be $9.48 Per Common Share
MASSAPEQUA, N.Y., Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Cedar Realty Trust (NYSE: CDR) ("Cedar") today announced that Cedar and Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ: WHLR) ("Wheeler") have jointly determined that the proceeds to Cedar common shareholders from the sale of Cedar's assets and subsequent merger in a series of related all-cash transactions will total $29.00 per share.
Accordingly, Cedar's Board of Directors today declared a special dividend on shares of Cedar's outstanding common stock of $19.52 per share, payable to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 19, 2022. Payment of the special dividend is contingent upon the closing of Cedar's previously announced cash merger transaction with a subsidiary of Wheeler – the final step of the sale process – which is expected to be consummated on or about August 22, 2022. Assuming the merger transaction is consummated on August 22, 2022, payment of the dividend will be made to eligible shareholders on August 26, 2022. Shareholders as of the merger closing date will also be entitled to receive merger consideration of $9.48 per share, payable on or about the same date as the special dividend.
Important Information About the Special Dividend
Due to the nature of the special dividend, as required by the rules of the NYSE, Cedar's common stock will trade with "due bills", representing an assignment of the right to receive the special dividend, beginning August 18, 2022, one business day prior to the special dividend record date, through the merger closing date (such period of time the "Due-bill Period"). AS A RESULT, HOLDERS OF CEDAR'S COMMON STOCK ON THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND RECORD DATE MUST HOLD CEDAR COMMON STOCK THROUGH THE MERGER CLOSING DATE IN ORDER TO BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND. CEDAR COMMON STOCKHOLDERS WHO SELL THEIR SHARES ON OR BEFORE THE MERGER CLOSING DATE WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND. PURCHASERS OF CEDAR COMMON STOCK DURING THE DUE-BILL PERIOD (EVEN IF THE TRADE WILL SETTLE AFTER THE DUE-BILL PERIOD) WHO HOLD SUCH SHARES ON THE MERGER CLOSING DATE WILL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND. STOCKHOLDERS THAT SELL CEDAR COMMON STOCK DURING THE DUE-BILL PERIOD (EVEN IF THE TRADE WILL SETTLE AFTER THE DUE-BILL PERIOD) WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND.
Due bills obligate a seller of shares of stock to deliver the dividend to the buyer. The due-bill obligations are settled customarily between the brokers representing buyers and sellers of the stock. Cedar has no obligation for either the amount of the due bill or the processing of the due bill. Buyers and sellers of Cedar common stock during the Due-bill Period should consult with their broker before trading in Cedar common stock to be sure they understand the effect of the due-bill procedures.

"We believe this combination of transactions represents the best possible outcome for our common shareholders and we are very pleased with the progress thus far of our dual-track review of strategic alternatives," said Bruce Schanzer, Cedar's President and Chief Executive Officer.
Upon completion of the transactions, Cedar will be wholly owned by Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust, and Cedar's common stock will no longer be publicly traded. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement with Wheeler, all shares of Cedar's currently outstanding 7.25% Series B Preferred Stock and 6.50% Series C Preferred Stock, will remain outstanding shares of Cedar preferred stock following the merger and will remain listed on the New York Stock Exchange under their current ticker symbols.

Cedar Realty Trust Announces Dual-Track Review Of Strategic Alternatives To Maximize Shareholder Value (9/09/21)

Cedar Realty Trust partners with Asland Capital Partners and the Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group for Major Opportunity Zone Redevelopment in Washington, D.C.'s Seventh Ward (5/06/21)
Joint venture secures $105 million loan from J.P. Morgan for construction of new Department of General Services headquarters
NEW YORK, May 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Asland Capital Partners, Cedar Realty Trust (NYSE: CDR) and the Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group announced the formation of a joint venture for the construction of the first phase of Northeast Heights, a mixed-use office and retail development in the Minnesota/Benning submarket of Washington D.C.'s Ward 7 neighborhood. The partnership also announced it has secured $105 million in construction financing from J.P. Morgan.
The first phase of Northeast Heights is a 258,500 square foot six-story commercial building. The office space is 100% leased to the Washington, D.C., Department of General Services (DGS) for its headquarters. The building includes 18,000 square feet of street-level retail. Cedar Realty Trust and Asland Capital Partners are co-developing the property while the Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group is serving as a strategic capital partner. Trammell Crow Company, one of the nation's largest commercial real estate developers and investors, is the designated fee developer. A JLL Capital Markets team comprised by Roland Merchant Jr., Nicco Lupo and Thomas Pryor arranged the debt and equity financing. Relocation of the DGS headquarters to Ward 7 was announced by Mayor Muriel Bowser in 2020 as part of the city's revitalization strategy to spark economic activity and investment in the area, and to bring retail, entertainment and dining options to the neighborhood. Construction is expected to begin in Q2 2021.
"Formation of this joint venture represents an important first step in advancing Cedar Realty Trust's vision for Northeast Heights, a mixed-use redevelopment project that will bring substantial economic activity to Ward 7," said Robin Zeigler, Chief Operating Officer of Cedar. "As the cornerstone and catalyst to the Northeast Heights redevelopment, construction of the DGS headquarters building will begin the long-planned revitalization of the Minnesota/Benning Corridor. We are grateful for the support of our partners, lenders, and local Washington, D.C. governmental officials who have been instrumental in achieving this milestone."
"Asland is excited to be part of this major investment in the vibrant Ward 7 community. The development will create jobs and lay the groundwork to deliver much-needed goods and services that have been heretofore absent from this previously underserved enclave," said James H. Simmons III, CEO & Founding Partner of Asland Capital Partners.
"Northeast Heights was made possible by a shared vision for inclusive growth among public and private partners, and we are thrilled to support the District's long-term commitment to the Benning Road corridor," said Daniel Alger, managing director and co-head of the Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group. "This project will create jobs, promote economic opportunity and will serve as a model for community development."
The area's designation as an Opportunity Zone will allow for important tax incentives for investments in new business and commercial projects at Ward 7, a historically underserved market. The joint venture will work to lease the remaining retail space at the property to retailers that benefit tenants of the office building and bring necessary amenities and services to the area.
"We believe that the impetus behind the opportunity zone program was precisely the development of projects such as Northeast Heights, aimed at creating vital investment opportunities on mixed-income, underserved neighborhoods," added Mr. Simmons. "We are looking forward to continue working on this remarkable project and being part of the future of Ward 7."
"Trammell Crow Company is pleased to play a key role in the development of Northeast Heights on behalf of the ownership team of Cedar, Asland, and Goldman Sachs and to execute the District's vision for the new DGS headquarters. As one of the District's most active office developers, we look forward to bringing our expertise to this project and new partnership," said Campbell Smith, Managing Director and Business Unit Leader for Trammell Crow Company MidAtlantic.
