AFC Gamma Announces Changes to Composition of Board of Directors Following Planned Spin-Off of Commercial Real Estate Portfolio

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., May 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AFC Gamma, Inc. (NASDAQ: AFCG) (“AFC Gamma”) today announced the anticipated composition of the Boards of Directors for each of AFC Gamma and Sunrise Realty Trust, Inc. (“SUNS”) following the spin-off of AFC Gamma’s commercial real estate portfolio, which is currently held in its wholly-owned subsidiary, SUNS (the “Spin-Off”). The Spin-Off is expected to be completed in mid-2024, at which time SUNS will operate as a separate company that intends to elect REIT status and trade on the Nasdaq exchange.

Jodi Hanson Bond and Jim Fagan have resigned from the AFC Gamma Board of Directors, effective upon completion of the Spin-Off, and we anticipate that they will then be appointed to the SUNS Board of Directors at such time. Additionally, we anticipate that Alexander Frank will also be appointed to the SUNS Board of Directors at such time, however he will remain a member of the AFC Gamma Board of Directors.

Post spin-off, we anticipate the composition of the AFC Gamma and SUNS Boards of Directors will be as follows:

AFC Gamma, Inc.:
Leonard Tannenbaum, Executive Chairman and Chief Investment Officer of AFC Gamma
Thomas Harrison, Lead Independent Director
Alexander Frank, Independent, Chair of Audit & Valuation Committee
Robert Levy, Independent
