Manulife US REIT prices private placement at $0.89 per unit

About 154.1 million units will be issued under the private placement.

The price of Manulife US Reit’s private placement closed at $0.89 (US$0.649) per new unit, which is on the lower end of their set price range.

The price represents a discount of 8.9% to the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of US$0.7124 per unit of all trades in the units on SGX-ST for Market Day 1 on 29 November 2021, and 5.9% to the adjusted VWAP of US$0.6898 per unit.

In a bourse filing, the manager of Manulife US REIT said 154.1 million new units will be issued under the private placement.

The new units will be issued and commence trading on the SGX-ST on or around 9 December 2021.

The private placement is expected to raise gross proceeds of $109.167m (US$80.0m).

The manager, together with DBS Bank Ltd. and Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited which were appointed as joint lead managers and underwriters, can upsize the private placement by up to 30.8 million new units, which would then raise an additional $27.29m (US$20m) in gross proceeds.

From the total amount raised, 92.4% or approximately $100.85m (US$73.9m) will be used to finance the REIT’s accusations in Phoenix, Arizona, and Portland, Oregon in the US.

If the acquisition will not proceed for whatever reason, the REIT’s manager said it may utilise the net proceeds of the private placement for other purposes, including and without limitation, future acquisitions, the repayment of existing indebtedness, and for funding capital expenditures or other general corporate and/or working capital purposes.

Meanwhile, 7.6% of gross proceeds, or $8.32m (US$6.1m), will be used to pay the estimated fees and expenses, including professional fees and expenses, incurred or to be incurred by Manulife US REIT in connection with the Acquisitions and the private placement.

IF there will be a remaining balance from the gross process, the REIT’s manager said it will be used for general corporate and/or working capital purposes.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
