Dream Industrial REIT Announces Date for Redemption of 5.25% Convertible Debentures

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

TORONTO, June 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DREAM INDUSTRIAL REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST (TSX:DIR.UN) (“Dream Industrial REIT”) today announced that it has given notice that it will redeem all of its outstanding 5.25% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures (the “5.25% Debentures”) on August 2, 2018 (the “Redemption Date”). Dream Industrial REIT had previously announced its intention to redeem the 5.25% Debentures.

The redemption price has been determined in accordance with the provisions of the indenture related to the 5.25% Debentures dated December 13, 2012 (the “Indenture”). The redemption price will be paid in cash and will be $1,004.60 for each $1,000 principal amount of 5.25% Debentures issued and outstanding on the Redemption Date, such amount being equal to the aggregate of (i) $1,000, and (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”). The aggregate principal amount of the 5.25% Debentures currently outstanding is $111,250,000.

Notice of redemption has been delivered to Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as debenture trustee for the 5.25% Debentures, in accordance with the Indenture.

The 5.25% Debentures are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbol “DIR.DB”. The 5.25% Debentures may be converted in accordance with their terms into units of Dream Industrial REIT until 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on August 1, 2018.

Beneficial holders of the 5.25% Debentures should contact their investment dealer or other firm through which they hold 5.25% Debentures if they have any questions about the redemption. No action is required to be taken by beneficial holders of 5.25% Debentures if they wish to have their 5.25% Debentures redeemed. However, if such beneficial holders wish to convert their 5.25% Debentures before they are redeemed, they should contact their investment dealer or other firm through which they hold 5.25% Debentures. Intermediaries such as investment dealers, banks, trust companies or other financial institutions who maintain their interests in the 5.25% Debentures through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (“CDS”) should contact their CDS customer service representative with any questions about the redemption.
