The information provided in the Introductory Note of this Current Report is incorporated herein by reference.

 

On September 19, 2017, the Merger became effective as of 4:01 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (the “Effective Time”).

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time:

 

·                  each share of Monogram common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares owned by Parent, Acquisition Sub and certain of their affiliates), was canceled and converted into the right to receive $12.00 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”);

 

2



 

·                  each Monogram restricted stock award and time-based restricted stock unit award that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time became fully vested, all restrictions thereon lapsed and all such Monogram restricted stock awards and time-based restricted stock unit awards were converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest thereon) in dollars equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares subject to Monogram restricted stock awards or time-based restricted stock unit awards, in each case, without regard to vesting and (ii) the Merger Consideration; and

 

·                  each Monogram performance restricted stock unit award that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time became vested based on actual performance achieved by the Company from the commencement of the applicable performance period through the date that was 30 days immediately preceding the closing of the Merger in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement, and each such Monogram performance restricted stock unit award and related agreement was cancelled and such award converted automatically into the right to receive an amount in cash (without interest thereon) equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Monogram common stock subject to such Monogram performance restricted stock unit award and (ii) the Merger Consideration.

 

The total portfolio value of the Merger and related transactions was approximately $4.4 billion, which was funded through a combination of equity contributions from a private investment group led by Greystar Real Estate Partners (“Greystar”) and including affiliates of APG Asset Management N.V., GIC, and Ivanhoé Cambridge (collectively with Greystar, the “Sponsors”) via a newly formed investment fund, Greystar Growth and Income Fund, LP as well as proceeds from debt financing.  The aggregate portfolio value also includes the value of the institutional joint venture with Stichting Depositary PGGM Private Real Estate Fund (“PGGM”).  In connection with the Merger, the PGGM joint venture was restructured, and the joint venture interests held by Milky Way Partners, L.P., the primary partner of which is Korea Exchange Bank, as Trustee for and on behalf of National Pension Service (acting for and on behalf of the National Pension Fund of the Republic of Korea Government) (“NPS”) were purchased by Greystar pursuant to a separate assignable purchase and sale agreement.

 

The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was previously filed as Exhibit 2.1 to Monogram’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 5, 2017 and is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report.

 

Item 3.01           Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
