SCULLY ROYALTY PROVIDES MEETING UPDATE
The Company believes that MILFAM failed to comply with the requirements for director nominations prescribed by the Company's Memorandum and Articles of Association (the "Articles"), including the required timeline for submission of nominations. As previously announced, MILFAM made application to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands seeking a declaration that its notice was valid. On
The MILFAM Circular Omits Critical Information for Shareholders and is Materially Misleading
Notwithstanding the Company's firm belief that MILFAM's directors' nominations have violated the Company's advance notice policy, the Company has repeatedly notified MILFAM of certain omissions in the MILFAM Circular which are, individually and taken together, significant and material in order for the Company's shareholders to make an informed vote.
The MILFAM circular, among other deficiencies, discloses that the MILFAM nominees are "independent" and that they would "fairly represent the interests of all Shareholders of the Company". However, MILFAM has purposefully withheld and obfuscated important relationships and positions between certain of its nominees and the MILFAM group. These omissions obscure the fact that a majority of the MILFAM nominees have significant past ties and relationships with the MILFAM group, including:
- The MILFAM Circular fails to disclose that its proposed nominee,
Alan Howe , currently continues to serve as a member of the Manager Oversight Committee of MILFAM. - Proposed MILFAM nominee
Mr. Howe is currently a director of Alimco Financial Corporation ("Alimco"), the parent company of Alimco Re Ltd. ("Alimco Re"), a member of the MILFAM group, and he has served in such role for approximately two decades. An SEC filing by Alimco disclosed that in 2019,Mr. Howe's "principal occupation" was acting as Chairman of Alimco.
Additionally, the Company understands that
The MILFAM Circular disclosed that MILFAM's proposed nominee,
- MILFAM has not disclosed to the Company's shareholders compensation received by
Mr. Howe from MILFAM and/or members of the MILFAM group for his service to them. - The MILFAM Circular discloses that
Mr. Howe served as a director of Spartacus Acquisition Corp. ("Spartacus") and Determine Inc. ("Determine"), and further discloses that he served as Chief Financial Officer and Vice President of Corporate Development for Teletrac Inc. ("Teletrac"). However, it omits certain important relationships held byMr. Howe with MILFAM, Alimco,Neil Subin and other members of the MILFAM group.
These omissions also include, among others, that: (i) Spartacus was a special purpose acquisition corporation formed in 2020 and sponsored by Spartacus Sponsor LLC, whose managing members included MILFAM CI LLC, which was disclosed as controlled by MILFAM CI Management LLC (controlled by
- In respect of MILFAM nominee
Mark Holliday , the MILFAM Circular fails to disclose that he andMr. Subin served concurrently as directors of Teletrac, FiberTower Corporation ("FiberTower") and Primus Telecommunications Group, Incorporated ("Primus"), and thatMr. Subin held observer status at Kaspien Holdings Inc. ("Kaspien") duringMr. Holliday's tenure as a director. Additionally, the MILFAM Circular did not disclose that: (i)Mr. Holliday was a director of Kaspien from 2022 until at least its delisting in 2023, at which timeMr. Subin and other members of the MILFAM group were disclosed as its largest shareholder. Alimco also had appointed another director to the Kaspien board andMr. Subin also had board observer rights at Kaspien pursuant to arrangements entered into with certain shareholders; (ii)Mr. Subin andMr. Holliday served concurrently on the Primus board; and (iii)Mr. Subin andMr. Holliday served as directors of FiberTower until they jointly resigned in 2009 and that a company controlled byMr. Subin periodically served as a "consultant" to a significant shareholder of FiberTower in and around that time.
Despite our multiple demands, MILFAM continues to keep this material information from shareholders. We question why and ask what else are they and their disclosed and undisclosed joint actors hiding?
We urge shareholders to use caution in reviewing MILFAM's proxy materials and continue to assess the impacts of its actions on the Company's business and operations, including its regulated banking operations. We will provide updates to our shareholders as we continue to take appropriate action against this opportunistic and improper attempt by MILFAM and its disclosed and undisclosed joint actors to take control of the Company.
