NEW YORK -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- IsZo Capital Management LP (together with its affiliates, “IsZo”), a significant long-term shareholder of Nam Tai Property Inc. (NYSE: NTP) (“Nam Tai” or the “Company”) with beneficial ownership of approximately 9.8% of the Company’s outstanding shares, today issued a letter to shareholders seeking support to convene a meeting of Nam Tai shareholders (the “Special Meeting”).

Poskon and Jeffrey Tuder.

The full text of today’s letter is below.

 

***

 

July 20, 2020

 

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

 

IsZo Capital Management LP (together with its affiliates, “IsZo”) is a significant long-term shareholder of Nam Tai Property Inc. (NYSE: NTP) (“Nam Tai” or the “Company”). We continue to believe there is an urgent need for change atop Nam Tai in light of its dismal corporate governance, perpetual boardroom conflicts, poor financial performance and value-destructive capital allocation decisions. Since Kaisa Group Holdings Ltd. (together with its affiliates, “Kaisa”) began taking control of Nam Tai in late 2017, the best interests of shareholders have been consistently disregarded by management and the Board of Directors (the “Board”). Kaisa’s unrelenting focus on its own interests above all else has destroyed nearly 70% of Nam Tai’s market capitalization and left the Company without any strategic direction or credible plan for enhancing shareholder value.1

 


1 Nam Tai’s share price was $13.00 as of the close of trading on January 29, 2018 (the day Ying Chi Kwok was appointed Chief Executive Officer) and the Company’s share price was $4.05 as of the close of trading on May 26, 2020 (the day before IsZo issued its first public communication to shareholders).

1

 

In light of the dire situation at Nam Tai, we are seeking shareholder support to demand that Nam Tai convene a meeting of the Company’s shareholders (the “Special Meeting”), whereat shareholders could vote to:

 

1.Remove five of the incumbent directors (Ying Chi Kwok, Dr. Wing Yan “William” Lo, Vincent Fok, Professor Si Zong Wu and Dr. Aiping Lyu), and any new director(s) appointed by the Board since the conclusion of the 2020 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, from the Board; and

 

2.Appoint IsZo’s six highly-qualified and independent director candidates (Michael Cricenti, Cindy Chen Delano, Bo Hu, Louis Leung, Paula J. Poskon and Jeffrey Tuder) to the Board.

 

Convening a Special Meeting requires the support of shareholders collectively holding 30% of Nam Tai’s outstanding shares. We urge shareholders interested in supporting our request for a Special Meeting to immediately visit www.FixNTP.com or promptly contact Saratoga Proxy Consulting at info@saratogaproxy.com or (212) 257-1311 with the name of your brokerage firm and the number of shares you own. Saratoga Proxy Consulting will provide Nam Tai shareholders with specific instructions on how they and their broker can execute a written request to call the Special Meeting.

 

THE CASE FOR SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IS CLEAR: NEW LEADERSHIP IS NEEDED TO ADDRESS THE GLARING GOVERNANCE, FINANCIAL AND STRATEGY ISSUES AT NAM TAI

 

We believe Nam Tai’s current leadership is unwilling to divorce itself from conflicts and incapable of taking the right steps to unlock the intrinsic value of the Company’s assets. The same individuals that have consistently put their own interests above those of shareholders cannot be counted on to unwind Nam Tai’s web of value-destructive issues, including:

 

·Deficient Corporate Governance Under Kaisa: Kaisa, which is a conflicted minority shareholder, has packed the Board and management team with allies and family members. Not only did Kaisa’s Chief Executive Officer install his younger brother – Ying Chi Kwok – as Nam Tai’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, but more than half of the Company’s Board members are directly affiliated with Kaisa or the Kwok brothers. Shareholders should not forget that the Kwok brothers have a troubling track record. In 2015, Kaisa’s share price plummeted as the Shenzhen government froze its assets, resulting in a delisting from the Hong Kong exchange and the Kwok brothers fleeing to Hong Kong to escape detention by the People’s Republic of China. We believe a reconstituted Board with demonstrated integrity will be able to eradicate the nepotism that pervades Nam Tai today.

 

·

A Controversial, Unengaged Chief Executive Officer: Ying Chi Kwok has failed to engage in any substantive manner with Nam Tai shareholders since becoming Chief Executive Officer in 2018. Mr. Kwok has not held a single conference call, engaged with sell-side analysts or presented in any public forum. To our knowledge, Mr. Kwok has seldom, if ever, visited the Company’s headquarters and properties. We believe that Mr. Kwok should be made to answer to shareholders for his delinquent performance and failure to deliver any credible plan for enhancing value. We believe a reconstituted Board and qualified executive leadership team will be far better positioned to rebuild credibility with shareholders and put forth a viable corporate strategy.

 

·Chronic Financial Underperformance: Nam Tai has produced negative total shareholder returns (“TSR”) over every relevant time horizon, including one-year (-58.96%), three-year (-43.75%) and five-year (-9.68%) periods.2 The Company’s TSR during Ying Chi Kwok’s disastrous, multi-year tenure as Chief Executive Officer is a comparably abysmal (-56.85%).3 We believe reconstituting the Board and removing Kaisa insiders from leadership roles at Nam Tai is the only way to end this dangerous and destructive tailspin.

 


2 TSR figures account for dividends reinvested and run through the close of trading on May 26, 2020 (the day before IsZo issued its first public communication to shareholders).

3 TSR figure accounts for dividends reinvested and runs from the close of trading on January 29, 2018 (the day Ying Chi Kwok was appointed Chief Executive Officer) to the close of trading on May 26, 2020 (the day before IsZo issued its first public communication to shareholders).

2

 

·A Concerning History of Related-Party Transactions: Since Kaisa essentially took control of Nam Tai (without paying any premium), the Company has engaged in a startling number of related-party transactions. Multiple years of self-dealing has resulted in at least $2.5 million in questionable transactions. We believe a reconstituted Board that includes proven public company directors and talented legal experts will be able to investigate the full scope of Kaisa’s self-dealing and establish clear guardrails to prevent similar value erosion moving forward.

 

·Egregious Strategic Missteps: Despite dramatic share price underperformance and shareholder outrage over related-party transactions, the incumbent Board has been rubberstamping a misaligned capital allocation approach. Nam Tai recently announced its intent to pursue an illogical and opaque acquisition strategy without conveying any detail to shareholders regarding anticipated costs, expected returns or the Company’s investment criteria. In keeping with its disregard for shareholder communication and transparency, the Company revealed in a single, buried sentence in its March 2020 20-F filing that it purchased a $101 million site for residential development in Dongguan City. This purchase used more than 80% of the Company’s available cash and represents more than a third of Nam Tai’s market capitalization. We believe a reconstituted Board that includes our six-member slate will be able to veer off of this disastrous path, while avoiding dangerous debt and preserving the underlying intrinsic value of revenue-generating projects.

 

THERE IS AN EXPEDITED PATH TO FIX NTP: RECONSTITUTE THE COMPANY’S BOARD WITH THE ISZO SLATE

 

IsZo has spent the past two months identifying and recruiting a world-class group of director candidates with deep real estate expertise, extensive experience operating in China, proven management and board service pedigrees and strong capital allocation and transaction acumen. Our six-member slate has already begun working to establish a comprehensive plan for improving governance, ending conflicts and self-dealing and implementing a disciplined capital allocation approach and structured portfolio optimization process that can help shareholders realize the intrinsic value of Nam Tai’s assets. By adding our director candidates to the Board alongside current directors Peter R. Kellogg and Mark Waslen, Nam Tai can finally benefit from a diverse, independent and qualified Board that is well-positioned to recruit a new management team and set a fresh strategic direction.

 

Our six highly-qualified and independent director candidates are: 

 

·Michael Cricenti is the Managing Member and Chief Investment Officer of Magis Capital Partners, a private investment firm that periodically invests in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) with underlying holdings across various commercial property sub-sectors.

Mr. Cricenti began his career as a mergers and acquisitions analyst at Harris Williams & Co., a leading middle-market advisory firm. Mr. Cricenti holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a concentration in finance and quantitative methods from Babson College.

 

·Cindy Chen Delano is a Partner and the Head of Litigation and Legal Strategy at Invictus Global Management, an alternative asset management firm based in Austin, Texas. Ms. Delano has vast legal expertise when it comes to complex cross-border transactions and investments, having held various positions at firms such as Whitebox Advisors, a $5 billion global asset manager, and AIG Investments, the investment management arm of American International Group (NYSE: AIG).

WE URGE SHAREHOLDERS TO SUPPORT THE CHANGE NEEDED AT NAM TAI BY EXECUTING A WRITTEN REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL MEETING

 

The time to fix Nam Tai is now – together shareholders can put an end to further value-destructive acquisitions and costly self-dealing at the Company. We firmly believe overhauling Nam Tai’s Board and management team is the only way to ensure shareholders’ best interests are finally prioritized and that the value of the Company’s underlying assets is ultimately realized. If the incumbent Board tries to undermine corporate democracy in the days to come by announcing cosmetic changes or tendering for shares, we believe it will only reinforce shareholder sentiment that Nam Tai’s leaders are focused on self-preservation and enriching themselves above all else.

 

We encourage shareholders to immediately visit www.FixNTP.com to obtain instructions to execute a written request for the Special Meeting. While we advise Nam Tai’s leaders to avoid taking any steps that undermine shareholders’ rights to elect directors of their choosing at a Special Meeting, the risks associated with Kaisa’s control of the Company grow each day. This is why we are asking shareholders to promptly act to help us reach the 30% support threshold for a Special Meeting.

 

We look forward to your support.

 

Sincerely,

 

Brian Sheehy

IsZo Capital Management LP

Re: Nam Tai Property Inc.

Dear ______:

 

Thank you for agreeing to serve as a nominee for election to the Board of Directors of Nam Tai Property Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with the solicitation that IsZo Capital LP and certain of its affiliates (collectively, the “IsZo Group”) is considering undertaking to convene a meeting of members of the Company in order to remove certain current directors of the Company and replace them with the IsZo Group’s slate of director nominees (the “IsZo Group Solicitation”). Your outstanding qualifications, we believe, will prove a valuable asset to the Company and all of its shareholders. This letter agreement (this “Agreement”) will set forth the terms of our agreement.

The members of the IsZo Group agree to jointly and severally indemnify and hold you harmless against any and all claims of any nature, whenever brought, arising from the IsZo Group Solicitation and any related transactions, including anything signed on your behalf per the Power of Attorney Agreement executed on July ___, 2020, irrespective of the outcome; provided, however, that you will not be entitled to indemnification for claims arising from your gross negligence, willful misconduct, intentional and material violations of law, criminal actions or material breach of the terms of this Agreement; provided further, that upon your becoming a director of the Company, this indemnification shall not apply to any claims made against you in your capacity as a director of the Company. This indemnification will include any and all losses, liabilities, damages, demands, claims, suits, actions, judgments, or causes of action, assessments, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, interest, penalties, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and any and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, any civil, criminal, administrative or arbitration action, or any claim whatsoever, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of any claim or litigation asserted against, resulting, imposed upon, or incurred or suffered by you, directly or indirectly, as a result of or arising from the IsZo Group Solicitation and any related transactions (each, a “Loss”).

In the event of a claim against you pursuant to the prior paragraph or the occurrence of a Loss, you shall give the IsZo Group prompt written notice of such claim or Loss (provided that failure to promptly notify the IsZo Group shall not relieve us from any liability which we may have on account of this Agreement, except to the extent we shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure). Upon receipt of such written notice, the IsZo Group will provide you with counsel to represent you. Such counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to you. In addition, you will be reimbursed promptly for all Losses suffered by you and as incurred as provided herein. The IsZo Group may not enter into any settlement of loss or claim without your consent unless such settlement includes a release of you from any and all liability in respect of such claim.

You hereby agree to keep confidential and not disclose to any party, without the consent of the IsZo Group, any confidential, proprietary or non-public information (collectively, “Information”) of the IsZo Group, its affiliates or any members of any group formed by the IsZo Group pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(1)(iii) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Schedule 13D Group”) which you have heretofore obtained or may obtain in connection with your service as a nominee hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Information shall not include any information that is publicly disclosed by the IsZo Group, its affiliates or any members of any Schedule 13D Group or any information that you can demonstrate is now, or hereafter becomes, through no act or failure to act on your part, otherwise generally known to the public.

 

 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are required by applicable law, rule, regulation or legal process to disclose any Information you may do so provided that you first promptly notify the IsZo Group so that the IsZo Group or any member thereof may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or, in the IsZo Group’s sole discretion, waive compliance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event that no such protective order or other remedy is obtained or the IsZo Group does not waive compliance with the terms of this Agreement, you may consult with counsel at the cost of the IsZo Group and you may furnish only that portion of the Information which you are advised by counsel is legally required to be so disclosed and you will request that the party(ies) receiving such Information maintain it as confidential.

 

All Information, all copies thereof, and any studies, notes, records, analysis, compilations or other documents prepared by you containing such Information, shall be and remain the property of the IsZo Group and, upon the request of a representative of the IsZo Group, all such Information shall be returned or, at the IsZo Group’s option, destroyed by you, with such destruction confirmed by you to the IsZo Group in writing.

 

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of the conflicts of laws thereof.

 

*               *               *

 

 

 

If you agree to the foregoing terms, please sign below to indicate your acceptance. 

Very truly yours,
