18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — United Development Funding IV (\u201cUDF IV\u201d or the \u201cTrust\u201d) mailed a letter to shareholders questioning the intentions of NexPoint Real Estate Opportunities, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of NexPoint Diversified Real Estate Trust (NXDT), and its affiliates (collectively, \u201cNexPoint\u201d) as it continues to run an ongoing, self-interested campaign to elect a dissident slate of director nominees at the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.<\/p>\n

The letter outlines the key questions that shareholders should consider regarding NexPoint and its campaign, including:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. NexPoint has made claims regarding their work to protect UDF IV shareholders, but what have they really done?<\/li>\n
  2. Has NexPoint presented a viable plan to enhance shareholder value?<\/li>\n
  3. What is NexPoint\u2019s motive in nominating trustee candidates? What is NexPoint after?<\/li>\n
  4. Are NexPoint\u2019s leaders\u2019 credible? Should I believe their statements regarding their intentions?<\/li>\n
  5. How has NexPoint managed its own fund?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Shareholders are encouraged to read the full letter addressing these key questions<\/a> before casting a vote.<\/p>\n

    The letter to shareholders and other important information regarding the Trust\u2019s ongoing commitment to value creation and track record of delivering shareholder returns, including UDF IV\u2019s proxy materials, can be found at UDFforShareholders.com<\/a>. The Trust urges shareholders to support the Board that is enhancing the value of their investment by voting on the WHITE<\/span><\/strong> proxy card \u201cFOR\u201d the Board\u2019s nominees – Steven J. Finkle, Lawrence S. Jones, J. Heath Malone and Phillip K. Marshall. The UDF IV shareholders should discard any green or other color proxy card sent by NexPoint.<\/p>\n
