The termination of the shareholder rights plan advances that objective,” said David Holeman, Chief Executive Officer of Whitestone. “In reaching its decision to terminate the plan at this time, the Board’s Operating Committee took into careful consideration shareholder feedback received as part of our ongoing shareholder outreach and engagement process.”
