ビジネスワイヤ(英語)
After the close of business on Thursday, June 18, 2009, RMR
F.I.R.E. Fund (NYSE Amex: RFR) was reorganized into RMR Real Estate
Income Fund (NYSE Amex: RIF).
On Thursday, June 18, 2009, the closing net asset value per
share (�NAV�) of common stock for RFR was $2.082 and for RIF was
$16.990. Since the reorganization was based on the relative NAVs of
these funds, the reorganization conversion ratio resulted in RFR
common shareholders receiving 0.123 shares of RIF common stock for
each share of RFR common stock they previously held. Common
shareholders of RFR may receive fractional shares in connection
with the reorganization.
RMR Real Estate Income Fund trades on the NYSE Amex using the
ticker symbol �RIF�. RIF�s NAV will be reported under the ticker
�XRMRX� until further notice.
As a result of the reorganization, preferred shareholders of RFR
received an equivalent number of shares of a new series of RIF
preferred stock, �Series W�. The auction date, rate period,
dividend payment date and liquidation preference per share of the
RIF preferred stock, Series W, received by RFR preferred
shareholders in the reorganization is the same as the RFR preferred
stock, Series W, that RFR preferred shareholders exchanged in the
reorganization.
The CUSIP numbers of the RIF common stock and preferred stock
are different from the CUSIP numbers of the RFR common stock and
preferred stock, respectively. RIF�s common stock CUSIP number is
74964K609 and RIF�s preferred stock, Series W, CUSIP number is
74964K401.
As previously announced, common shareholders of record of RFR
will receive the following final cash distribution consisting of
the fund's estimated undistributed federal investment company
taxable income and net capital gains:
Record Date � � � Pay Date* � � � Amount Per Share June 17, 2009
June 30, 2009 $0.01
*On or about.
RFR has substantial investments in real estate investment
trusts. Because real estate investment trusts generally classify
distributions to RFR subsequent to the end of each calendar year as
ordinary income, net capital gain or return of capital, it is
expected that some portion of the distribution declared by RFR may
be similarly characterized for tax purposes subsequent to this year
end.
The existing common shares and preferred shares of RFR will be
cancelled and the fund will be dissolved under applicable state law
as soon as practicable.
Also, as previously announced, subject to the satisfaction of
certain conditions set forth in each Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization, the reorganization of each of RMR Hospitality and
Real Estate Fund (NYSE Amex: RHR), RMR Preferred Dividend Fund
(NYSE Amex: RDR) and RMR Dividend Capture Fund (NYSE Amex: RCR)
with RIF are currently expected to close after the end of business
on the following dates:
- RHR: Friday, June 19, 2009
- RCR: Monday, June 22, 2009
- RDR: Tuesday, June 23, 2009
Details of the common share conversions and dividend payment
amounts, if any, will be determined after the end of business on
each of the aforementioned closing dates and will be announced by
press release prior to the beginning of trading on the NYSE Amex on
the first business day following each closing date.
