BALTIMORE, Feb. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The Town and Country Trust (NYSE:TCT), a multifamily real estate investment trust, announced that it had received on February 8, 2006 a revised definitive offer from Oriole Partnership to acquire TCT for $39.50 per share or limited partnership unit of TCT's operating partnership, plus a pro-rata payment in respect of TCT dividends as contemplated by the existing agreement and plan of merger, dated December 19, 2005, among TCT, The TC Operating Limited Partnership, Magazine Acquisition GP LLC, Magazine Acquisition LP and Magazine Acquisition LLC (collectively, "Magazine Acquisition"). The revised definitive offer replaces Oriole Partnership's previous definitive proposal which TCT received on February 4, 2006, and will remain open for acceptance by TCT until 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, February 14, 2006. Additionally, TCT announced that prior to receiving the revised Oriole Partnership offer it had received a proposal from Magazine Acquisition to increase to $39.00 per share or limited partnership unit of TCT's operating partnership, plus a pro-rata payment in respect of TCT dividends as payable under TCT's existing merger agreement with Magazine Acquisition. TCT also announced that its Board of Trustees has determined that Oriole Partnership's revised definitive offer of $39.50 per share is a superior transaction to the merger contemplated by TCT's merger agreement with Magazine Acquisition. Under the terms of TCT's merger agreement with Magazine Acquisition, following the determination by the board that Oriole Partnership's offer is a superior transaction, Magazine Acquisition has three business days, or until 11:59 p.m. on Monday, February 13, 2006, to match Oriole Partnership's offer before TCT's Board of Trustees can change its recommendation with respect to the Magazine Acquisition transaction or terminate the merger agreement with Magazine Acquisition to enter into an agreement with Oriole Partnership relating to its revised definitive offer. TCT cautioned that no assurances can be given that Oriole Partnership's revised definitive offer will result in a transaction with Oriole Partnership, at the price set forth in its offer or otherwise. TCT's current merger agreement with Magazine Acquisition (which TCT's Board of Trustees continues to recommend and for which TCT will seek shareholder approval at a special meeting of shareholders to be held on March 9, 2006) provides that each share of TCT common stock and each limited partnership unit of TCT's operating partnership would be exchanged for $33.90 in cash, plus a pro-rata payment in respect of TCT dividends.
