NEW YORK, Sept. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Orange Capital Ventures, LP ("Orange Capital") announced today its intention to vote in favor of the proposed internalization and merger transaction after reaching out to management, performing a thorough review of Global Net Lease, Inc's (NYSE: GNL) ("GNL" or "Company") presentation filed on August 28, 2023, and its related joint proxy materials, participating in the investor call hosted on September 5, 2023 and entering into a confidential agreement with the Company's advisor (the "Advisor") and the Company following discussions with its management. Pursuant to the agreement, the Advisor, at no expense to the Company, will reimburse Orange Capital for its time and expenses depending on the outcome of the vote.
