Business Wire
Tricon Residential Inc. (NYSE: TCN, TSX: TCN) (“Tricon” or the
“Company”) today announced receipt of Investment Canada Act
approval in connection with the previously announced statutory plan
of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the
“Arrangement”) pursuant to which Blackstone Real Estate Partners X,
together with Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc., will
acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Tricon (“Common
Shares”) for US$11.25 per Common Share in cash (the
“Transaction”).
The Transaction previously received clearance under the
Competition Act (Canada) and shareholder approval, and the parties
have received a final order from the Ontario Superior Court of
Justice (Commercial List) approving the Arrangement. No further
regulatory or shareholder approvals are required in connection with
the Transaction. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain
customary closing conditions, the Transaction is expected to be
completed on or around May 1, 2024. Following completion of the
Transaction, it is anticipated that the Common Shares will be
delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock
Exchange and that the Company will apply to cease to be a reporting
issuer under applicable Canadian securities laws and will
deregister the Common Shares under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “U.S. Exchange Act”).
Enclosed with the management information circular of the Company
dated February 15, 2024 (the “Circular”) was a letter of
transmittal explaining how registered shareholders of the Company
can submit their Common Shares in order to receive the
consideration to which they are entitled in connection with the
Transaction. Registered shareholders who have questions on how to

Beneficial shareholders holding Common Shares that are registered
in the name of an intermediary must contact their broker or other
intermediary to submit their instructions with respect to the
Arrangement and to arrange for the surrender of their Common Shares
in order to receive the consideration to which they are entitled in
connection with the Transaction.
