Trinity Place Holdings Inc. Enters Into Recapitalization Transactions

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Trinity Place Holdings Inc. (NYSE American: TPHS) (the 鈥淐ompany鈥�) announced that, effective as of January 5, 2024, the Company had entered into a stock purchase agreement with the lender under its corporate credit facility and an affiliate of such lender (the 鈥淚nvestor鈥�), pursuant to which the Investor will be issued 25,112,245 shares of common stock of the Company for a purchase price of $0.30 per share in accordance with the terms and conditions of the stock purchase agreement. At the closing of the transactions contemplated by the stock purchase agreement, the Company and the Investor will enter into a joint venture agreement, pursuant to which the joint venture will be appointed the initial manager of, and acquire a five percent (5%) interest in, the joint venture, which joint venture will continue to own, indirectly, all of the real property assets of the Company upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the stock purchase agreement and the joint venture agreement, and which joint venture will initially hire a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company to act as asset manager for the joint venture for an annual management fee. The Company expects that net proceeds from the issuance of the shares to the Investor at the closing of the transactions will be approximately $4.5 million.

Under the proposed transactions, the real estate assets and related liabilities as well as the corporate credit facility will become part of the joint venture, with the public company retaining the substantial federal, state and local tax net operating losses, the intellectual property and a 95% equity interest in the newly formed joint venture. If consummated, the Company believes that the transactions will allow for an improved structure for a new investor to invest in the Company, which is less complex as a result of the real estate assets and substantially all liabilities being off-balance sheet. In addition, the parties have agreed to certain provisions in the stock purchase agreement to accommodate any new strategic partner that may invest in the Company.

The transactions are subject to various conditions and the Company and the Investor have made certain covenants and agreements, as described in the more detail in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (鈥淪EC鈥�) today concurrently with this release. In addition, on January 8, 2024, the Company filed a preliminary consent solicitation statement with the SEC, and intends to file a definitive consent solicitation statement and other relevant materials with the SEC, pursuant to which the Company will solicit the written consents of its stockholders to the proposals set forth therein in accordance with the provisions of the stock purchase agreement.

NYSE Communication

In addition, on January 4, 2024, the Company received a letter (the 鈥淣otice鈥�) from the NYSE American LLC (鈥淣YSE American鈥�) advising the Company that the NYSE American had determined that the Company鈥檚 securities had been selling for a low price per share for a substantial period of time and, pursuant to Section 1003(f)(v) of the Guide, the Company鈥檚 continued listing is predicated on it effecting a reverse stock split of its shares of common stock or otherwise demonstrating sustained price improvement by no later than July 4, 2024. The notice states that, as a result of the foregoing, the Company has become subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009 of the Guide, which could, among other things, result in the initiation of delisting proceedings, unless the Company cures the deficiency in a timely manner. The NYSE American can also take accelerated delisting action if the Common Stock trades at levels viewed to be abnormally low.

The Notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company鈥檚 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the 鈥淐ommon Stock鈥�), which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE American during the period mentioned above, subject to the Company鈥檚 compliance with the other listing requirements of the NYSE American. The Common Stock will continue to trade under the symbol 鈥淭PHS鈥�, but will have an added designation of 鈥�.BC鈥� to indicate the status of the Common Stock as 鈥渂elow compliance鈥�. The Notice does not affect the Company鈥檚 ongoing business operations or its reporting requirements with the SEC.

The Company intends to consider available options to regain compliance with the requirements set forth in the Notice. No decisions have been made at this time. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve compliance with the NYSE American鈥檚 continued listing standards within the required time frames.

Additional details regarding the Notice from the NYSE American were included in, and the description above is qualified in its entirety by, the Company鈥檚 Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 10, 2024, which is available on the Company鈥檚 website under 鈥淚nvestor Relations 鈥� SEC Filings鈥� at .
