Columbia Property Trust, Inc. (NYSE: CXP) today announced that
it expects to complete its previously announced merger (the
“Merger”) with affiliates of funds managed by Pacific Investment
Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”) on or around December 8, 2021. The
completion of the Merger remains subject to certain customary
closing conditions, including, among other things, approval of the
Merger by Columbia stockholders.
As previously disclosed, in connection with the Merger, Columbia
has agreed, at the request of an affiliate of PIMCO, to declare a
special cash dividend to holders of Columbia common stock, and the
merger consideration of $19.30 per share in cash will be decreased
by an amount equal to the per share amount of the special dividend,
such that holders of common stock will receive an aggregate of
$19.30 per share in cash in merger consideration and the special
dividend. On November 29, 2021, the Board of Directors declared a
special cash dividend of $2.17 per share, which will be paid on
December 8, 2021, to stockholders of record as of December 8, 2021,
in connection with the completion of the Merger and contingent upon
the completion of the certain sale transactions contemplated in
connection with the Merger.
This special dividend is in addition to the Company’s regular
quarterly cash dividend, last paid in September 2021.
For additional information regarding the proposed transaction,
please consult the definitive proxy statement filed by Columbia
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 26,
