Faircourt Trusts to Merge? FCI.PR.A FCF.PR.A FCN.PR.A FIG.PR.A

Faircourt has announced that they propose to merge several of their public investment vehicles:

Faircourt Asset Management Inc. has announced that it will hold securityholder meetings on January 9, 2007 for Faircourt Income Split Trust, Faircourt Split Five Trust, Faircourt Split Seven Trust and Income & Growth Split Trust (the “Funds”). At the meetings, holders of units (“Unitholders”) and holders of preferred securities (“Preferred Securityholders”) of each of the Funds will be asked to consider the proposed merger (the “Merger”) of Income Split, Split Five and Split Seven into Income & Growth Split, to create a single trust (the “Continuing Trust”). Preferred Securityholders of the Funds will also be asked to consider the proposed exchange of preferred securities of each of Income Split, Split Five and Split Seven for preferred securities of Income & Growth Split (which will be the Continuing Trust) which, if approved, is expected to occur shortly following approval. Unitholders and Preferred Securityholders will also be asked to consider various amendments to the trust agreements and trust indentures of the Funds.

There is no indication that I can find, either on the company website or on SEDAR as to just what these “various amendments” might be.

Let’s hope the amendments include a declining premium on the preferred calls! I’ll keep everybody posted.

  1. […] The merger, therefore, will have to wait … even after I went to the trouble of adding FIG.PR.A to the HIMIPref™ database! […]
