Citigroup Alternative Investments LLC ("CAI”), on behalf of each of the
National, National II, California and New York Portfolios (the "National
Portfolio,” National Portfolio II,” "California Portfolio” and "New York
Portfolio,” respectively, and collectively, the "Portfolios”) of MAT
Five LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Company") announced
today that the Company has extended the expiration date of the tender
and exchange offers for each Portfolio (collectively, the "Exchange
Offers") and amended the terms of each of the Exchange Offers, as set
forth in the respective confidential tender and exchange offer memoranda
for each Portfolio, each dated May 29, 2008, each as amended and
restated on November 14, 2008 (as may be further supplemented, amended
or restated, collectively, the "Exchange Memoranda"). The Exchange
Offers, which had been scheduled to expire on November 28, 2008 at 5:00
p.m., New York City time, will now expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on December 15, 2008 (the "Expiration Date"), unless further
extended by the Company.
As set forth in the Exchange Memoranda, holders of existing shares of
limited liability company interest ("Existing Shares” and the holders
thereof, the "Existing Holders”), other than Excluded Holders (as
defined in the Exchange Memoranda), shall be deemed to have selected the
default option unless they return a completed Subscription Agreement
electing a different option or to opt-out of the offer. For the period
from November 14, 2008, the date of amendment of the terms of the offer,
through 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 19, 2008, no holders
of Existing Shares have elected any option other than the default
option. Existing Holders of approximately 0.3% (1,000,000 shares) of the
Existing Shares of the National Portfolio had returned a Subscription
Agreement electing to opt-out of the offer. No Excluded Holder had
elected to participate in the offer at such time.
The Company’s obligation to consummate the Exchange Offers and accept
tenders of Existing Shares is conditioned on the completion of the other
components of the related transactions and other conditions, as more
fully set forth in the Exchange Memoranda.
This press release is not a solicitation of tenders with respect to
Existing Shares of any Portfolio. The Exchange Offers are being made
solely by the applicable Exchange Memoranda and related supplements and
documents, each of which sets forth the complete terms of the respective
Exchange Offers.
