LXP faces merger-related shareholder suit and 14 demand letters; voluntarily supplements proxy
LXP Industrial Trust
- LXP faces one shareholder complaint, Garfield v. Eglin (N.Y. Sup. Ct. filed Oct. 9, 2026), seeking to enjoin the Oct. 26, 2026 special meeting vote and the merger closing.
- LXP received 14 demand letters from law firms alleging disclosure deficiencies in its preliminary and definitive proxy statements; the company denies the claims as without merit.
- LXP supplemented its Sept. 18, 2026 proxy with BofA analyses: selected deals at 15.8x-21.5x NTM EBITDA and a DCF using 8.1%-9.2% discount rates.
- Brookfield/CPPIB's June 6, 2026 revised non-binding proposal offered $60.00 per LXP common share, up from earlier bids of $50.00, $55.00, $56.00 and $57.25.
