CUSIP No. 25525P107

 

The following constitutes Amendment No. 5 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 4”). This Amendment No. 5 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4.Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On December 19, 2023, the Reporting Persons delivered a letter (the “December Letter”) to the Board of Trustees of the Issuer (the “Board”) regarding the Issuer’s decision to (i) sell its 31.9% stake in AlerisLife, Inc. (“AlerisLife”) to ABP Acquisition 2 LLC (“ABP), an entity indirectly controlled by the Managing Trustee of the Board, and (ii) waive certain defaults under the master management agreement between AlerisLife and the Issuer, without any apparent consideration. The December Letter indicated that the Reporting Persons are particularly interested in knowing what, if any, analysis the Board has conducted to determine whether the Issuer should exercise its right to repurchase its 31.9% share of AlerisLife at $1.31 per share because (i) the sale to ABP significantly undervalued AlerisLife, (ii) AlerisLife was acquired at a time when its 2023 EBITDA projections were abnormally depressed, and (iii) by reacquiring AlerisLife, the Issuer would regain some ability to influence and oversee an entity vital to its business. Pursuant to the December Letter, the Reporting Persons, due to the reasons outlined above, strongly encouraged the Issuer to exercise its AlerisLife repurchase option by the December 31, 2023 deadline.
