On January 28, 2014, Corvex Management LP filed a consent solicitation statement urging the shareholders of CommonWealth REIT to vote for its consent card to elect its director nominees: James Corl, Edward Glickman, Peter Linneman, Jim Lozier, and Kenneth Shea to the Company's Board at the Company's special shareholders meeting to be held on June 13, 2014. Corvex Management also urged the shareholders of the Company to vote for its proposal to adjourn the special meeting if a quorum is not present at the time of the special meeting or if otherwise necessary to solicit additional proxies to elect the nominees. Further, Corvex Management stated that the director election proposal is contingent upon the success of the written consent solicitation to remove the trustees of the Company.
