The following communication was made available by Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc. (the Company) to its tenants on May 18, 2023.
Dear Tenant,
As an important tenant of ours, we are
pleased to share some exciting news regarding the future of the Company. We have agreed to combine with Regency Centers Corporation (Regency) to create a bigger organization with a national scale to serve you.
As you may know, Regency is a preeminent owner, operator, and developer of shopping centers located in key suburban trade areas across the United States. We
strongly believe that Regency is the right partner for the Company as it shares our strategic vision, but it also offers a platform that allows us to attain that vision on a national scale. We are confident that our tenants will benefit from this
transaction and the combined companys expanded strength, diversification, and capabilities.
At this time, what is most important for you to know is
that your relationship with us is not expected to change. Once the transaction closes, Regencys management team will lead the combined company. We are looking forward to bringing together our teams, who share similar core values centered on
serving our tenants, to realize the long-term value and benefits that we believe this combination will deliver.
In terms of next steps, we expect the
transaction to close late in the third quarter or early in the fourth quarter of 2023, subject to the receipt of approval of the Companys stockholders and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Until then, we will continue to
operate as two independent companies and it is business as usual.
Importantly, we do not expect this announcement to have any impact on day-to-day operations at our properties. Your lease and points of contact will remain the same until we inform you otherwise. We are committed to keeping you informed and will
contact you directly if we have any updates to share. As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or your usual contact.
On
behalf of our team, thank you for your continued support. We value our relationship and look forward to continuing to serve you.
Sincerely,
URSTADT BIDDLE PROPERTIES INC.
Stephan Rapaglia
Senior Vice President, Chief Operating Officer & Real Estate Counsel
