Inovalis Real Estate Investment Trust Provides Update on Sale of Sabliere Property
Inovalis Real Estate Investment Trust (the “ REIT ”) (TSX: INO.UN) announced today that, further to its press releases dated July 15, 2024, August 27, 2024, and September 4, 2024 and the special meeting of unitholders of the REIT that was held on September 4, 2024, the non-binding letter of intent with Inovalis S.A. dated May 31, 2024 (the “ Letter of Intent ”), pursuant to which the REIT would have sold a single asset located at 24-26, Rue Bénard – 25, Rue Hyppolite Maindron – 27-29, Rue de la Sablière, Paris, District 14, France (the “ Sabliere Property ”) to Inovalis S.A., has been mutually terminated.
The Letter of Intent, which was previously filed as a material contract on SEDAR+ and is available to view at www.sedarplus.ca , was subject to Inovalis S.A. obtaining bank financing for the purchase of the Sabliere Property, which Inovalis S.A. has confirmed it has been unable to obtain on terms acceptable to it. As such, the sale of the Sabliere Property to Inovalis S.A. will not proceed at this time. There was no penalty or termination fee payable by either the REIT or Inovalis S.A. in connection with the termination of the Letter of Intent.
The REIT will continue to evaluate other opportunities for a potential sale of the Sabliere Property and is committed to evaluating a range of options available for the Sabliere Property to maximize value for its unitholders. There can, however, be no assurance that this process will result in the REIT pursuing or consummating any transaction in respect of the Sabliere Property, nor can any assurance be provided as to its outcome or timing. The REIT does not intend to comment further on the sale process for the Sabliere Property until it determines that additional disclosure is appropriate or required by applicable securities laws.
