Medalist Diversified REIT to explore strategic alternatives

Medalist Diversified REIT has established a Special Committee of the Board to explore potential strategic alternatives focusing on maximizing stockholder value. The Special Committee is comprised solely of independent directors and is charged with exploring potential strategic alternatives, including, without limitation, a business combination involving the Company, a sale of all or part of the Company’s assets, joint venture arrangements and/or restructurings, and determining whether a strategic transaction is in the best interests of the Company. The Special Committee has retained Jones Lang LaSalle Securities, LLC to act as its financial advisor and Troutman Pepper Hamilton Sanders LLP as its legal counsel.
