LEDERER GROUP INVESTMENT IN CENTURIA PLATFORM
Sydney, 29 June 2017: Centuria Capital Group ( Centuria or CNI ) today announced that it has issued 20.1 million options to subscribe for CNI stapled securities to a private investment vehicle within the Lederer Group ( Lederer Group ) ( Options ). The Options have an exercise price of $1.30 per stapled security and an expiry date of 5 years post issuance.[1]
In addition, CNI has today entered into a Placement Agreement to issue 2.62 million CNI securities to the Lederer Group at an issue price of $1.14 per CNI stapled security.
The Lederer Group was founded by Paul Lederer and is a leading Australian family office comprising a conglomerate of entities including property, manufacturing, financial investments and community based developments.
The Lederer Group first became an investor in the Centuria property funds management platform in 2014 when it made a foundation investment in Centuria Metropolitan REIT ( CMA ). The group has supported the growth of CMA through full participation in all subsequent rights issues and currently holds an interest of approximately 7.3%.
Centuria Property Funds No. 2 Limited ( CPF2L ) as Responsible Entity for Centuria Industrial REIT ( CIP ) earlier today announced a $35 million fully underwritten institutional placement ( CIP Placement ) to fund the acquisition of two strategic assets for a combined purchase price of $65 million (excluding transaction costs). The Lederer Group has committed to subscribe $25 million for approximately 10.2 million units under the CIP Placement representing a holding of approximately 4.5% of CIP (post the CIP Placement).
Following the completion of the CIP Placement, the Lederer Group will hold a combined investment in excess of $55 million across the Centuria platform.
John McBain, CEO of Centuria said, “ The Lederer Group is a highly respected, prominent real estate investor and we are delighted the group has decided to increase its investment in the Centuria platform to include CNI, CMA and CIP.”
Paul Lederer, Chairman of the Lederer Group said, “ Building on our successful investment in CMA, this additional investment represents a substantial commitment and demonstrates our confidence in the Centuria property funds management platform.”
