The Board of directors acknowledges that each stockholder should evaluate whether to tender his or her shares only after a review of Comrit’s tender offer. In addition, because the shares are not listed on a national securities exchange, and because of the limited liquidity of the Company’s share redemption program, which is only open for special redemptions, the Board notes that each individual stockholder should determine whether to tender based on, among other considerations, his or her current liquidity needs. There also can be no assurances with respect to when or if the Company will ultimately achieve a liquidity event, or as to the future value of the shares.
We urge you to consult your financial advisor and exercise caution with respect to these and other mini-tender offers. Mini-tender offers are offers to purchase less than 5% of a company’s outstanding shares. The SEC has cautioned investors about offers of this nature. Additional information about mini-tender offers is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/minitend.htm.
In order to avoid the costs of additional mailings, the REIT may post any updates or changes to its response to this mini-tender offer and/or responses to future mini-tender offers at www.resourcereit.com, under the “Investor Relations” section, and will file such updates or changes with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K. If you have any questions related to the tender offer, please contact Resource REIT at 1-866- 469-0129.
Thank you for your investment in the REIT.
Sincerely,
Alan F. Feldman
Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer
Resource REIT, Inc.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The foregoing includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The REIT intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the REIT and members of its management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “should” or similar expressions. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. The REIT undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law. Such statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. The REIT makes no representation or warranty (express or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements. These statements are based on a number of assumptions involving the judgment of management. These statements also depend on factors such as: future economic, competitive and market conditions; the REIT’s ability to maintain occupancy levels and rental rates at its real estate properties; and other risks identified in Part I, Item 1A of the REIT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC.
Cautionary Note regarding Estimated Value Per Share
We note that the estimated value per share does not reflect estimated disposition costs and fees for real estate properties, debt prepayment penalties that could apply upon the prepayment of certain of our debt obligations or the impact of restrictions on the assumption of debt. The appraisal methodology for the REIT’s appraised real estate properties assumes the properties realize the projected net operating income and expected capitalization rates and that investors would be willing to invest in such properties at yields equal to the expected discount rates. Though the appraisals of the appraised real estate properties, with respect to Duff & Phelps, LLC, and the valuation estimates used in calculating the estimated value per share, with respect to Duff & Phelps, LLC, the Advisor and the REIT, are the respective party’s best estimates as of January 28, 2021, the REIT can give no assurance in this regard. Even small changes to these assumptions could result in significant differences in the appraised values of the REIT’s appraised real estate properties and the estimated value per share. Actual events may cause the value and returns on the REIT’s investments to be less than that used for purposes of the estimated value per share. In particular, the outbreak of COVID-19, together with the resulting restrictions on travel and quarantines imposed, have had a negative impact on the economy and business activity globally, the full impact of which is not yet known and may result in an adverse impact to our operations and investments.
