“This latest decision of the Monmouth board to recommend the EQC stock offer is highly disappointing and we firmly\u00a0believe it is not in the best interests of all of Monmouth’s shareholders. The enhanced Starwood Capital proposal provides Monmouth shareholders in excess of $100 million<\/span> of additional value relative to the implied value of the Equity Commonwealth transaction based on EQC’s closing price today of $26.61<\/span>. We believe Monmouth’s shareholders will express similar disappointment when they are asked to approve the EQC transaction by a vote of two thirds of outstanding shares, and we stand ready to execute our fully financed, fully actionable all-cash offer.”<\/p>\n
