• Conversion Restriction Extended to 2028

  Third Amendment to Letter Agreement extends the Stilwell Holders' agreement not to convert notes into more than 50% voting control from December 7, 2026 to December 7, 2028.

• Registration Rights Granted

  Company must file a Form S-11 shelf registration within 60 days to register resale of 710,466 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock held by the Stilwell Holders.

• New Overhang Risk

  Once registered, Stilwell can sell the Series B preferred shares, which convert into common stock — adding to Wheeler's ongoing dilution from preferred redemptions.

• Timeline

  Registration statement due by approximately October 16, 2026 (60 days from August 17, 2026 agreement date).

Wheeler REIT extended its agreement with the Stilwell Holders, preventing them from converting notes into more than 50% voting control until December 7, 2028 — two years beyond the prior deadline. In exchange, the company must register resale of 710,466 Series B Convertible Preferred shares within 60 days. This removes a near-term control threat but creates a new overhang: once registered, Stilwell can sell those preferred shares, which convert into common stock. Given Wheeler's ongoing pattern of massive dilution from preferred redemptions, this registration right adds another potential source of common share supply.
