SRT Shareholders Coalition Achieves

Victory for Investors

Troubled Board Admits Failure Just Days After Shareholders Call For More Transparency

(Anaheim, CA) --- Today, the SRT Shareholders Coalition announced an important milestone in its efforts to put the Strategic Realty Trust, Inc. (SRT) back on track.  On Friday, October 11, 2013, a national broad-based coalition of SRT shareholders filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission to solicit shareholder consent to call for a long overdue shareholders meeting.  The group called for the removal of current board members and an election to replace them with new directors that the Coalition believes are qualified and independent.  Just days later, the current board rushed to call for a shareholders meeting that would take place almost a year and half after the last annual meeting, a period of time in which the “Special Committee” of the current board has operated mostly behind closed doors.

“After more than a year of the ‘Special Committee’ operating almost entirely in secrecy, I believe that the current SRT board was only willing to call a shareholders meeting once they felt pressure from shareholders.  We must move forward with an election and install new independent directors who will improve the accountability, competence and authentic shareholder representation back to the SRT. For the sake of investors, we must put this real estate investment trust on a successful trajectory once again,” said Marshall Karr, an independent director nominee and managing partner of Karr Commercial, LLC, who is a Certified Property Manager with more than 30 years of experience in the Real Estate and Construction business managing residential, commercial and retail properties.

“SRT shareholders have the opportunity to elect a new board of directors who will embrace the value of transparency and the goal of protecting the shareholders’ investment. A first start is a commitment to regularly scheduled and open shareholders meetings so that investors can see the business of the board and ask questions.  I am proud to join a team of qualified, fiercely independent director nominees whom I am confident will improve SRT’s governance,” said independent director nominee Todd Spitzer, a business attorney and an elected Supervisor for the County of Orange, California, recently elected to a third term representing over 600,000 constituents and managing nearly $5 billion in America’s 5th largest county.
