How should I allocate my cost basis if I received Kimco Common Stock and Class D Preferred Stock for my Price REIT shares?

The cost basis of Price REIT Common Stock should be allocated to Kimco Common Stock and Kimco Class D Depositary Shares based on the relative value of those instruments as of June 19, 1998 (the date the merger took effect). Based on the prices on that date, the basis of each share of Price REIT Common Stock would be allocated 80.6% to each share of Kimco Common Stock and 19.4% to the .36 Class D Depositary Shares.

Example: Prior to the merger you owned 100 Price REIT shares purchased at $40.00 per share for a total cost of $4,000.00. At the time of the merger you received 100 shares of Kimco Common Stock and 36 depositary shares of Class D Preferred Stock. Your cost basis in your new Kimco Common Stock is $3,224.00 ($4,000*80.6%) or $32.24 per share. Your cost basis in your Kimco Class D Preferred Stock is $776.00 ($4,000*19.4%) or $21.55 per depositary share.
