Trez Capital Senior Mortgage Investment Corporation Announces Special Distribution and Provides Corporate Update
TORONTO , Feb. 26, 2021 /CNW/ - Trez Capital Senior Mortgage Investment Corporation (TSX: TZS) (the "Company") announced today that its board of directors has declared a special distribution of $0.478 per Class A share of the Company (the "Special Distribution"). The Special Distribution, which constitutes a return of capital pursuant to the winding-up of the Company's business, as previously approved by shareholders on June 16 , 2016 ("Orderly Wind-up Resolution"), will be paid on March 29, 2021 to holders of Class A shares of record at the close of business on March 12, 2021 . As of February 25, 2021, there were 7,318,067 Class A shares outstanding. The Special Distribution payment is not subject to any condition and will be made in cash.
Corporate Update
The Company also announced today that it will be seeking approval from shareholders at the Company's upcoming Annual and Special Meeting of shareholders, which is expected to be held on or around May 6, 2021 (the "Meeting"), of a resolution (the "Revocation Resolution") to revoke the Orderly Wind-Up Resolution. Notwithstanding the proposed Revocation Resolution, the directors of the Company intend to continue to pursue an orderly disposition of the Company's assets and distribution of cash as and when available. By revoking the Orderly Wind-up Resolution, the directors will be relieved of their obligation to seek a dissolution of the Company thereby enabling the directors to explore a transaction or series of transactions that could monetize the value of Company as a publicly-listed entity.
To the extent the directors of the Company are able to secure such a transaction, further value may be available to shareholders beyond the value to be realized through the dissolution process alone. The entirety of the Revocation Resolution, and further disclosure regarding the particulars of the Revocation Resolution, will be made available in the Company's management information circular to be sent to shareholders in connection with the Meeting. There is no assurance that any such transaction will occur should the Revocation Resolution be approved at the Meeting.
