SINGAPORE, Feb. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — It is in the best interest of all Sabana REIT Unitholders to VOTE YES FOR ALL THE RESOLUTIONS AT THE 8 MARCH 2024 EGM TO REDUCE COST AND EXPEDITE INTERNALIZATION TO INCREASE DPU AND UNIT PRICE.
Please find the Open Letter to Unitholders and the Manager of Sabana REIT below:
OPEN LETTER TO THE MANAGEMENT AND BOARD OF SABANA INDUSTRIAL REIT (SGX:M1GU) AND ALL SABANA UNITHOLDERS
ALL RECIPIENTS ARE ADVISED TO READ
“IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE INFORMATION“
AT THE END OF THE ATTACHED LETTER
26 February 2024
VOTE YES FOR ALL RESOLUTIONS AT THE 8 MARCH EGM TO REDUCE COST AND EXPEDITE INTERNALIZATION TO INCREASE DPU AND UNIT PRICE
Dear Mr. Han, Board of Directors of Sabana Real Estate Management Pte. Ltd., and Unitholders of Sabana REIT,
1. Unitholders of Sabana Real Estate Investment Trust (“Sabana REIT“, “SSREIT SP Equity”, or “SGX:M1GU”) (“Unitholders“) overwhelmingly voted for the Internalization of the REIT’s management function at the 7 August 2023 EGM, which has provided HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited (“Trustee“) with an unequivocal mandate to execute the Internalization as efficiently and with as few obstacles as possible to ensure its success.
2. Through the Internalization, Unitholders will significantly benefit from the substantial increase in corporate governance and unitholders’ rights. It is also clear to us that unitholders will also benefit tremendously from the increase in DPU and unit price from the sizable cost savings of redirecting all the profit of the External Manager back to unitholders and the faster execution of catalysts to increase rental income due to the complete alignment of interest with the Internal Manager.
3. Unfortunately, the Trustee has refused to change its position (below) which would result in the failure of Internalization and the wastage of unitholders’ monies. According to the Trustee:
A. the Trust Deed needs to be amended;
B. the Trustee will not be providing the certification under Clause 28.2 of the Trust Deed, despite the fact that the Internalization of the Sabana Industrial REIT (“Internalization“) clearly confers tremendous additional value to Unitholders and the fact that under the Trust Deed, the Trustee is obligated to work towards effecting Unitholders’ decision to implement the Internalization, as approved at the 7 August 2023 EGM.
C. the Trustee does not prohibit the Manager and its shareholders and related parties from voting in any resolutions to amend the Trust Deed (if any) even though these parties are clearly interested parties and in a conflict-of-interest situation (or any other reasons) as the resolutions, if passed, will directly impact their fee income.
4. The Trustee’s position is in contrast to Unitholders’ who believe that the Trust Deed does not need to be amended and, if there is any amendment, the Trustee should provide the certification under Clause 28.2 of the Trust Deed. In addition, the Manager and its shareholders and other related parties should be prohibited from voting in any resolutions concerning the Trust Deed amendment (if needed) as they are in a conflict of interest/interested party situation (or any other reasons) as it impacts their fee income.
5. In 2H2023, the Trustee has already spent a substantial S$3.2 million of Unitholders’ funds on the Internalization process. Despite this, the Trustee seems to want to spend even more unitholders’ money on the Internalization process even though it should be aware that, based on its position, Internalization will fail.
6. Unitholders are particularly concerned by the Trustee’s unwillingness to publish a list of its correspondence (emails, letters, meetings, calls with timings, including summaries) it sent to or received from the owner or beneficiary (and/or their related parties) of the Sabana REIT manager.
7. Contrary to the above, the Trustee has repeatedly refused to meet with the SGIC, despite the committee’s declared intention to support the Internalization and ensure its success. SGIC is also willing to release all correspondence with the Trustee to Sabana unitholders if unitholders are to table such a resolution as SGIC’s actions have been consistently in support of Sabana REIT and the Internalization process.
8. This lack of transparency makes unitholders wonder about the amount of correspondence the Trustee seems to be withholding from Sabana unitholders, especially since the owner or beneficiary (and related parties) voted against the Internalization at the 7 August 2023 EGM.
9. To this end, Unitholders are deeply dissatisfied with the Trustee’s position on Internalization and the Trustee’s apparent lack of transparency, clarity and progress vis-à-vis the Internalization despite spending a substantial amount of Unitholders’ monies.
10. Unitholders believe it is not necessary to amend the Trust Deed to effect internalization. The Trustee’s insistence on amending the Trust Deed imposes significant obstacles which can result in the failure of Internalization.
11. The Trustee has also refused to commit to a fix timeline or budget for Internalization. Its action is in contradiction to unitholders’ direction to effect Internalization with as least hurdles as possible. As such, there should be Unitholders’ oversight of the process to ensure that the Internalization process which is funded by unitholders’ monies can be completed as cost effective, prompt and with the least hurdles as possible.
12. It is for all these reasons that the Unitholders have requisitioned this EGM on 10 January 2024.
13. The EGM’s main intention is to provide clarity and direction to the Trustee as to the intentions of the Unitholders on Internalization. The Internalization Committee, if voted in by Unitholders, will be the authorised representative of all Unitholders. It will be empowered by unitholders to be consulted by the Trustee and supervise the implementation of the Internalization. We expect the Trustee to fully cooperate, work closely, and have regular meetings with the Internalization Committee.
14. The key goals of the Internalization Committee are to minimise the expenditure incurred by the Trustee and ensure that Internalization is completed as promptly as possible with the least obstacles as directed by Unitholders. This will in turn result in time and cost savings and enable Unitholders to start benefitting from the Internalization as soon as possible.
15. We call on all Unitholders to VOTE YES FOR ALL THE RESOLUTIONS in the EGM so that the Internalization process can be completed and Unitholders can start benefiting from the improvement in corporate governance, DPU and Unit Price
16. Please find the rationale for the resolutions below.
RESOLUTION 1: That the Trustee of Sabana Industrial REIT, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, be put on notice that Unitholders reject: (1) any proposal to acquire the existing REIT Manager (fully functioning REIT Manager with the necessary licenses, personnel, assets and an undertaking from the direct and indirect owners to fully support internalization) directly or indirectly for a maximum all-in offer price exceeding 10 million Singapore dollars (S$10,000,000) and any such transaction post 1 month of this resolution, and (2) any proposal to acquire any assets (including the employment contracts) of the existing Manager at any price.
13. In the Requisition Letter on dated 7 June 2023, it is clearly stated that:
“Once Unitholders cease all payment of fees to Sabana’s External Manager, it is very likely that the External Manager will have to terminate most of its employees. This is as 100% of all revenue and profits of the External Manager are contributed by Sabana REIT and Unitholders.
The new Internal Manager welcomes all management and staffs who prioritise the interest of and are aligned with Unitholders to join the refreshed team.
We look forward to the new Internal Manager hiring the best and the brightest from this strong talent pool, complemented by hires from the old External Manager, so that it is best placed to achieve the goal of increasing DPU and unit price”.
14. Resolution 2(c) in the 7 August 2023 EGM also specifically reads that the Trustee be directed to “consider the retention of Sabana Industrial REIT’s existing staff in order to maintain the continuity of Sabana Industrial REIT’s operations”. As such, nothing in Resolutions 1 and 2 passed at the 7 August 2023 EGM provides any explicit direction to the Trustee to purchase assets or employment contracts of the existing REIT Manager.
15. If the Trustee has been negotiating with the indirect or direct owner of the REIT Manager to purchase its assets (including employment contracts), this has neither been sanctioned nor approved by Unitholders.
16. The maximum price of S$10,000,000 takes into account various qualitative and quantitative parameters including financial metrics and considerations such as the fact that 100% of the REIT Manager’s revenue and profit come from Sabana REIT, the high attrition rate of the Manager (as stated in a 23rd January 2024 Business Times article where unitholders are highly concerned whether the Trustee is fulfilling its responsibility in ensuring that the current Manager meets MAS’s obligation to be a REIT Manager and the service standards required by unitholders), and the net asset value, earnings visibility and balance sheet.
Resolution 1 provides clarity to the Trustee on the matter of acquiring assets from the Manager. Until Requisitioned Resolution 1 is voted on, the Trustee should stop all discussion on asset acquisition (including employment contracts) from the Manager.
RESOLUTION 2: That the Trustee of Sabana Industrial REIT, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, be directed to provide all Sabana unitholders with a written update on the internalization process every month, including without limitation, the costs incurred for advisors, consultants etc.
17. Resolution 2 has been tabled to ensure that the Trustee provides timely updates of the Internalization process and cost incurred to all unitholders.
RESOLUTION 3: That the Trustee of Sabana Industrial REIT, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, be directed, within 2 weeks of this resolution, to form a committee (“Internalization Committee”) consisting of Mr. Imran Chng Pia Ser, Mr Lim Hock Chuan, Mr. Havard Chi Cher Pan, Mr. Low Chin Yee, Mr. Jan Frederic Moermann and Mr. Saha Anshuman Manabendranath, and the Internalization Committee, in their capacity as the authorised representative of all unitholders, shall be consulted by the Trustee and supervise the implementation of Internalization.
18. Resolution 3 is tabled due to the challenges the Trustee has claimed to have encountered in the implementation of the Internalization (despite more than 40 REIT managers being set up in Singapore in a timely and cost-effective manner) and the substantial amount of Unitholders’ monies which the Trustee has already spent in the process.
19. The Internalization Committee will be empowered and have the mandate to represent all Unitholders in consultations with the Trustee and in the supervision of the Internalization. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that the Internalization Committee is the authorised representative of all Unitholders.
20. As the Trustee itself has conceded, nothing in the Trust Deed or regulatory framework applicable to the Sabana Industrial REIT states that the Internalization Committee and its members cannot assume a supervisory role and be consulted by the Trustee in the Internalization process.
21. Further, nowhere in the Trust Deed is it stated that the Trustee cannot act upon the directions and instructions of the Internalization Committee and its members if this is voted in by Unitholders. In fact, it is clearly stated in the Trust Deed that the Trustee is obligated and bound to give effect to Unitholders’ direction and vote.
22. The key goals of the Internalization Committee are to minimise the expenditure incurred by the Trustee and ensure that Internalization is completed as promptly as possible with the least obstacles as directed by Unitholders. This will in turn result in time and cost savings and enable Unitholders to start benefitting from the Internalization as soon as possible.
23. If Resolution 3 is passed, it confirms Unitholders’ dissatisfaction and disagreement with the Trustee’s position and execution of the Internalization process.
RESOLUTION 4: That should the Trustee convene an extraordinary general meeting regarding any proposed amendments to the Trust Deed, the Trustee be directed to state, with respect to each proposed amendment (and any consequential amendments required) to the Trust Deed (if any): (a) whether each such proposed amendment (and any consequential amendments required) are strictly necessary to effect Internalization; and (b) the Trustee’s opinion, and reasons for such opinion, on whether, each such proposed amendment (and any consequential amendments required) necessary to effect Internalization may adversely affect the interests of the Manager and its sponsors, whether directly or indirectly, given that Internalization would affect the fee income of the Manager and its sponsors.
RESOLUTION 5: That the Trustee of Sabana Industrial REIT, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, be directed to consider and confirm whether any proposed amendments to the Trust Deed (if any amendment is required at all) to effect Internalization of the REIT management function, “does not materially prejudice the interests of the Holders and does not operate to release to any material extent the Trustee or the Manager from any responsibility to the Holders” according to Clause 28.2.1 of the Trust Deed, and if not, to provide the basis and reasons for coming to such conclusion.
RESOLUTION 6: That the Trustee be directed to ensure that it and its advisors undertake their best endeavors to (1) implement the Internalization process without any amendments to the Trust Deed; (2) ensure that any proposed amendments to the Trust Deed are absolutely necessary to effect Internalization; (3) seek any necessary waivers from the regulators to implement Internalization; and (4) if any amendments to the Trust Deed referred to in Resolution 5 do not materially prejudice the interests of the Holders and do not operate to release to any material extent the Trustee or the Manager from any responsibility to the Holders, the Trustee be directed to provide such certification referred to in Clause 28.2.1 of the Trust Deed.
24. Unitholders have tabled Resolutions 4-6 to ensure that the Trustee and its advisors undertake to implement the Internalization without any amendments to the Trust Deed. This is because the Trustee has said many times that amendments to the Trust Deed are needed to effect the internalization, which Unitholders disagree with.
25. The Unitholders have consistently reiterated that while the Trustee has discretion under Clause 28.2 of the Trust Deed, this discretion must be exercised bearing in mind the beneficiaries’ intentions and the parameters set out under Clause 28.2.
26. Unitholders have repeated many times that the Trustee should execute the Internalization in a manner which results in the least obstacles possible to Unitholders so that Internalization can be successfully implemented as per the direction from Unitholders.
27. As such, Requisitions 4-6 are intended to hold the Trustee accountable and direct the Trustee to explain its decisions to Unitholders.
28. Unitholders strongly believe that the outcome of Resolutions 4, 5, and 6, based on the democratic rights of Unitholders to exercise their rights to vote, may provide clarification to the Court in the Order 32 Application on Unitholders’ position on Internalization.
29. Resolution 4, 5 and 6 if passed confirms that Unitholders fully disagree with the Trustee’s position and execution of the Internalization process.
RESOLUTION 7: That the Trustee of Sabana Industrial REIT, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, be directed to incorporate the governance rights which enable Unitholders to appoint, vote in, remove, and re-elect directors in the constitution of the internal manager to be set up and no amendment to the Trust Deed is required.
RESOLUTION 8: That the Trustee of Sabana Industrial REIT, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, be directed to incorporate unitholder’s right to approve any change of control in the internal manager in the management agreement with the internal manager and no amendment to the Trust Deed is required.
30. Requisitioned Resolutions 7 and 8, if passed by Unitholders, shall supersede Resolutions 2(d) to 2(f) passed at the 7 August 2023 EGM.
31. Requisitioned Resolutions 7 and 8 are intended to provide clarity on how unitholders would like to have their governance and unitholders’ rights implemented in a certain manner without the need to amend the Trust Deed.
32. It bears mentioning that Croesus Retail Trust, in its Internalization process, has also incorporated these governance rights in a similar manner, without amending their Trust Deed.
33. The Trustee should respect the wishes of Unitholders on how they would like their governance and Unitholders’ rights be implemented.
RESOLUTION 9: That in view that the Trustee has indicated in its statement of 7 November 2023 that “it is and will remain, neutral and independent of the Manager“, the Trustee of Sabana Industrial REIT, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, be directed to disclose, to the extent permitted by law, a list of all correspondence, emails, letters, meetings, calls, timing and dates with each owner or beneficiary (and/or their related parties) of the Sabana REIT Manager (if any) since 7th August 2023, together with a summary of the matters discussed.
34. Resolution 9 has been tabled to shed light on the Trustee’s communication with the owner, beneficiaries, and/or related parties of the Manager. The Trustee has, on behalf of the Unitholders, undertaken discussions on the Internalization process with those parties and Unitholders, as owners of the REIT, should be privy to these discussions.
35. The Trustee has argued that information sought to be disclosed under Requisition 9 is subject to existing confidentiality restrictions between the Trustee and the Manager and its owner and related parties. Unitholders are of the view that Unitholders, as owners of the REIT, are, by extension, related parties. In the same way as they are entitled to regular updates from the Manager (semi-annual and annual reports) regarding their investment, the Unitholders are entitled to all information about the status of the Internalization. In other words, Unitholders are by nature a necessary party to any discussions on Internalization, and no information should be withheld from them.
36. If the Trustee has signed any confidentiality agreement with these parties even though it is clear that the Unitholders and the Sabana Industrial REIT are clearly parties to any discussions on the Internalization process between the Trustee and the owners, beneficiaries, and/or the related parties of the Manager, it is also clear that the Trustee should solely bear all cost and the consequence of breaching any confidentiality agreement it has signed with the other parties without passing these costs to the Unitholders.
37. As mentioned, SGIC is willing to release all correspondence with the Trustee to Sabana unitholders if unitholders are to table such a resolution as SGIC’s actions have been consistently in support of Sabana REIT and the Internalization process.
38. As such, unitholders do not understand the reluctance of the Trustee in providing more clarity on its correspondence with the owner or beneficiary (and related parties) of the current REIT Manager. This lack of transparency makes unitholders wonder about the amount of correspondence the Trustee seems to be withholding from Sabana unitholders, especially since the owner or beneficiary (and related parties) voted against the Internalization at the 7 August 2023 EGM.
RESOLUTION 10: That if the Trust Deed is proposed to be amended in connection with the internalization, the Trustee of Sabana Industrial REIT, HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Singapore) Limited, be directed to immediately seek written confirmation, guidance and/or directions from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“SGX RegCo”) and the High Court of Singapore in the Trustee’s ongoing application in HC/OA 19/2024 on (a) whether the Manager and its shareholders and related parties are in a conflict of interest situation where such resolution to amend the Trust Deed, if passed, will impact their fee income from the existing Manager; and (b) whether they ought to be permitted to vote in relation to any such resolution to amend the Trust Deed for the aforesaid or any other reason.
39. The Unitholders have on multiple occasions requested that the Trustee confirm its position on whether the Manager, its shareholders and/or the related parties of the Manager and/or shareholders can vote on any resolutions to amend the Trust Deed, notwithstanding the fact that these parties are interested parties and/or are parties in a position of conflict of interest (or any other reasons). That the Trustee answers this question is critical to the success or failure of Internalization.
40. This is because the Manager, its shareholders and/or the related parties of the Manager and/or shareholders are clearly against Internalization. Internalization will directly impact these parties’ fee income from and the value of the Manager. In this regard, the Manager, its shareholders and/or the related parties of the Manager and/or shareholders will likely vote against any resolutions to amend the Trust Deed (if needed) for the purposes of effecting Internalization.
41. By having clear guidance from the regulators and the court on the above, Unitholders will be able to better understand how to proceed with the Internalization process.
42. If Resolution 10 is passed, unitholders shall work together with the Trustee and/or their solicitors on the precise phrasing of any court application.
