08 November 2022 - 08:15AM
GlobeNewswire Inc.
America First Multifamily Investors, L.P. (NASDAQ: ATAX) (the
“Partnership”) announced plans to change the Partnership’s legal
name to Greystone Housing Impact Investors LP, with the name change
to be effective at a future date. In addition, the Partnership also
announced its intent to transfer the listing of its beneficial unit
certificates representing assigned limited partnership interests
(“BUCs”) from the Nasdaq Global Select Market to the New York Stock
Exchange (“NYSE”).
The Board of Managers of Greystone AF Manager
LLC, the general partner of the general partner of the Partnership,
has approved the name change and the transfer of the listing of the
BUCs to the NYSE. In connection with the foregoing, on November 7,
2022, the Partnership filed an application for the listing of the
BUCs on the NYSE. The Partnership currently expects the NYSE will
act on the Partnership’s application by the beginning of December
2022. The Partnership’s name change is expected to become effective
upon the approval of the listing of the BUCs on the NYSE. If
approved for listing on the NYSE, the Partnership’s BUCs will trade
under the symbol “GHI”. Until the transfer of the listing to the
NYSE is complete, the BUCs will continue to be traded on the Nasdaq
under the symbol “ATAX”. The name change does not require the
approval of the Partnership’s BUC holders.
“We are very excited to announce our upcoming
name change which aligns ourselves more closely with the
well-respected Greystone brand,” said Kenneth C. Rogozinski, Chief
Executive of Officer of the Partnership. “Greystone, together with
its affiliates, purchased the general partner of America First
Multifamily Investors, L.P. in September 2019 to provide new and
exciting opportunities for the Partnership to work off of a larger
mortgage lending and investing platform and to build strategic
initiatives and growth efforts. The upcoming name change will
further highlight the Partnership’s place in the broader Greystone
platform of services and will enhance the profile of the
Partnership. In addition, we believe our new name will highlight
the positive social impact of the Partnership’s various investments
that address the significant need for affordable multifamily
housing across the United States.”
“The Partnership is also pleased to apply for
listing of its BUCs on the NYSE, the recognized global leader in
traded equity listings. The Partnership’s intended inclusion on the
NYSE with many of the world’s most well-established companies is
expected to provide long-term benefits for our unitholders,” said
Rogozinski.
The Partnership also released and posted on its
website Frequently Asked Questions (“FAQs”) in connection with the
name change and the listing of the BUCs on the NYSE, which are
intended to be used primarily by the Partnership’s BUC holders.
