BALTIMORE, May 29 (Reuters) - Prime Retail Inc. said Friday that its board approved the payment of the special cash distributions to be made in connection with its proposed purchase of Horizon Group Inc(HGI - news).
A special cash distribution of $0.50 per share or per unit will be made to holders of Prime Retail's Series C Preferred Securities, Common Stock, and the common limited partnership units, and a special cash distribution of $0.60 per share will be made to holders of Prime Retail's Series B Preferred Stock subject to the completion of the merger with Horizon, the company said in a statement.
The record date for determining holders entitled to participate in the special cash distributions is June 9. The deal is expected to get shareholder and partner approval on June 12.
The distributions will be paid concurrently with the closing of the merger, which is presently expected to occur around June 15. Shareholders and unitholders of Horizon will not participate in these distributions.
The $365 million deal was first announced in November.
Prime Retail has set June 15 as the record date and June 18 as the payment date for the distribution of the common equity of Horizons. These holders will receive one share of Horizon's common stock for every 20 shares of common stock, common units or Series C Preferred Stock of Prime Retail, as well as 1.196 shares of Horizon's common stock for every 20 shares of Series B Preferred Stock held in Prime Retail.
