From Postal Realty Trust:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Postal Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: PSTL) is the first-of-its-kind and only publicly traded real estate investment trust (REIT) focused on properties leased to the USPS.<\/p>\n

From your hometown post office to industrial mail processing facilities, postal properties are a vital component of America\u2019s infrastructure. For more than 30 years, our founders have been proud owners of this important slice of Americana. We have the scale and expertise to deliver reliable growth to our investors and be a dependable partner and resource to our fellow postal property owners.<\/p>\n

Since the early 1980s, our founders have been buying and managing space leased to the USPS. Our CEO, Andrew Spodek, grew up in the business, accompanying his father on visits to his portfolio of postal properties. Eventually, he began managing a large portfolio of postal properties himself. These assets are the foundation on which Postal Realty Trust was built when the company went public in 2019.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

From Wikipedia<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Patrick R. Donahoe was the 73rd United States Postmaster General, having been appointed to the post on October 25, 2010. A 35-year veteran of the Postal Service, he reported to the Postal Service Board of Governors.<\/p>\n

Donahoe is a 1977 graduate of the\u00a0University of Pittsburgh<\/a>\u00a0where he majored in economics. He also graduated from the\u00a0MIT Sloan School of Management<\/a>, where he was a\u00a0Sloan Fellow<\/a>.[2]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0Before being Postmaster, Donahoe served as the 19th deputy postmaster general.<\/p>\n

He entered the\u00a0United States Postal Service<\/a>\u00a0as a clerk in\u00a0Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania<\/a>\u00a0on the advice of his uncle Bob Burke, a mail carrier, who encouraged young Patrick to take the postal service exam.[3]<\/a><\/sup>[4]<\/a><\/sup>[5]<\/a><\/sup>[6]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

His predecessor, Postmaster General\u00a0John E. Potter<\/a>\u00a0testified before the Senate[7]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0that if the Postal Service is not able to readjust their payment toward the pre-funding of retiree health benefits, as mandated by the\u00a0Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act<\/a>\u00a0of 2006,[8]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0the USPS would be forced to consider cutting delivery to five days per week during the summer months of June, July & August. Donahoe echoed his predecessor’s views on five-day delivery when he assumed office in 2011.<\/p>\n

On February 6, 2013, Donahoe announced that the Postal Service would implement five-day mail delivery beginning August 5, a move he claimed would save $2 billion annually. Later the same day, the national board of the postal union, the\u00a0National Rural Letter Carriers’ Association<\/a>, voted unanimously to call for his dismissal.[9]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0July 16, the House passed the Financial Services and General Government Appropriations bill, which included language protecting six?day mail delivery, thereby blocking Donahoe’s plan.<\/p>\n

Donahoe retired on February 1, 2015[10]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0and\u00a0Megan Brennan<\/a>, the first female Postmaster General, was appointed as his successor the following February.[11]<\/a><\/sup>[12]<\/a><\/sup>[13]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

Mr Donahoe is married and has two sons.[14]<\/a><\/sup>[15]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0After his retirement from the Postal Service, Donahoe now serves on the board of\u00a0SG360\u00b0<\/a>, a marketing firm.[16]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0Donahoe also serves as Board Chairman for Postal Realty Trust, a NYSE listed company which is the largest owner of properties leased to the US Postal Service.<\/p>\n
