Notable Events From 2020-2024

 * What I think should be changed (include citations):

1. In June 2020, the company reconstituted its board of directors, electing MaryAnne Gilmartin as chair. Gilmartin also served as Interim Chief Executive Officer prior to the appointment of a permanent CEO in 2021.

2. In March 2021, the company named Mahbod Nia as CEO. Nia has served on the company's board since June 2020. Concurrently, Gilmartin stepped down as chair and was replaced by former Lead Independent Director Tammy K. Jones.

3. In December 2021, the company rebranded, changing its name to Veris Residential. The new brand reflects the company's intent to transform into an "environmentally and socially conscious, forward-thinking multifamily company" through the sale of its office assets and the integration of ESG principles.

4. In April 2023, the company completed the sale of Harborside 1,2, & 3 in Jersey City for $420 million USD.

5. In 2024, the company divested its final office property, completing its strategic transformation.

1. The reconstitution of the board marked a major strategic shift for the company following a proxy battle. The entire C-Suite was changed and the company a name, acts which both stem from this change.
 * Why it should be changed:

2.The appointment of a new CEO is a significant event that links to the board's reconstitution, as is the appointment of a new chair.

3. Additional details explaining the stated differences between the former and new brand. Explains the strategy/purpose behind the rebrand.

4.Significant sale. Won several awards from industry organizations, including MHN, NAIOP, and CoStar. At the time, the sale of Harborside 1, 2 and 3 was the largest office sale year-to-date in the United States (by nearly $150M) and the largest multitenant office sale in the history of New Jersey.

5. Marks the completion of the company's transformation from a primarily office REIT to one with 100% multifamily holdings.
