WIHP further notified the Issuer that it intends to nominate individuals for election as trustees of the Issuer at the Annual Meeting (the “Nominees”) in accordance with the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Bylaws.  WILLC intends to deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to the Issuer’s shareholders and solicit proxies in support of the Nominees.
