COLONY CAPITAL, INC. (NYSE:CLNY) Files An 8-K Other Events

Item8.01

Other Events

Settlement of Certain Litigation and Supplemental
Information to the Definitive Proxy Statement

As previously announced, on June2, 2016, Colony Capital, Inc., a
Maryland corporation (Colony), entered into an Agreement and
Plans of Merger, as amended from time to time, with NorthStar
Asset Management Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (NSAM) and
NorthStar Realty Finance Corp., a Maryland corporation (NRF), and
certain subsidiary entities of NSAM and NRF, to which NSAM,
Colony and NRF will combine in an all-stock merger of equals (the
Mergers). In connection with the Mergers, each of NSAM, Colony
and NRF has filed a definitive joint proxy statement with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on November18,
2016, which was supplemented by the Current Report on Form8-K
filed with the SEC by each of NSAM and NRF on November23, 2016
(the Definitive Proxy Statement).

As previously described in the Definitive Proxy Statement, a
purported stockholder of Colony filed a putative class action
complaint in the United States District Court of the District of
Maryland (referred to as the Carter action) against
Colony and the members of the Colony board. The complaint
alleges, among other things, that the initial joint proxy
statement/prospectus and the first amendment thereto filed in
respect of the Mergers omit or misstate various facts concerning
the financial analyses performed by the financial advisors to
Colony. Also as noted in the Definitive Proxy Statement,
substantially similar claims were filed against NSAM, NRF and
their respective boards of directors.

On December9, 2016, Colony entered into a Memorandum of
Understanding with the plaintiff in the Carter action
providing for the settlement of the Carter action (the
Colony Memorandum of Understanding). In the Colony Memorandum of
Understanding, Colony agreed to make certain supplemental
disclosures to the Definitive Proxy Statement solely for the
purposes of minimizing the time, burden, and expense of
litigation. The Colony Memorandum of Understanding provides that,
in exchange for making these disclosures, defendants will
receive, after notice to potential class members and upon court
approval, a customary release of claims relating to the Mergers.
Similar settlements in principle have been reached in the related
litigations against NSAM, NRF, and their respective boards of
directors.

Colony believes that no additional disclosure is required to
supplement the Definitive Proxy Statement under applicable laws.
However, to minimize the costs, risks and uncertainties inherent
in litigation and to avoid any potential delay of the
consummation of the Mergers, and without admitting any liability
or wrongdoing, Colony has agreed, to the Colony Memorandum of
Understanding, to make certain supplemental disclosures to the
Definitive Proxy Statement as set forth below.

The supplemental disclosure to the Definitive Proxy Statement set
forth in this Current Report on Form8-K should be read in
conjunction with the Definitive Proxy Statement, which should be
read in its entirety. To the extent that information in this
Current Report on Form8-K differs from information contained in
the Definitive Proxy Statement, the information in this Current
Report on Form8-K shall supersede such information contained in
the Definitive Proxy Statement. Defined terms not defined herein
have the meanings set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement.
Underlined text shows text being added to a referenced disclosure
in the Definitive Proxy Statement in the case of an amended and
restated disclosure.

The section entitled The MergersOpinion of NSAMs Financial
Advisor beginning on page 166 of the Definitive Proxy Statement
is supplemented by adding the following paragraph immediately
before the section entitled The MergersOpinion of NSAMs Financial
AdvisorSummary of Material Financial Analysis on page 168 of the
Definitive Proxy Statement:

Following Goldman Sachs presentation to the NSAM board on June2,
2016 (which we refer to as the June2 Presentation), it was
determined that the estimates of levered free cash flows for NSAM
for the second quarter through the fourth quarter of 2016 used in
the illustrative discounted cash flow analyses of NSAM did not
reflect the Forecasts, which resulted in the incorrect
calculation of the range of illustrative present values derived
from the discounted cash flow analyses, the range of NSAMs equity
percentage of the combined pro forma company resulting from the
leveraged discounted cash flow and dividend discount model
contribution analysis and the range of implied equity values
resulting from the illustrative NSAMs standalone levered
discounted cash flow to illustrative dividend discount model
analysis. Goldman Sachs subsequently performed such analyses, as
of June2, 2016, using the corrected estimates and calculations
(as corrected, collectively referred to as the Corrected
Estimates and Calculations). Based upon and subject to the
foregoing, Goldman Sachs confirmed to the NSAM board that, had
Goldman Sachs performed its financial analyses set forth in the
presentation on June2, 2016 using the Corrected Estimates and
Calculations, there would have been no change to the conclusion
set forth in the written opinion of Goldman Sachs. Goldman Sachs
confirmation does not address any circumstances, developments or
events occurring after the date of the written opinion of Goldman
Sachs, other than in relation to the Corrected Estimates and
Calculations, and Goldman Sachs opinion set forth in the written
opinion of Goldman Sachs is provided only as of such date.

The following disclosure supplements and restates the last
full sentence in the section entitled The MergersOpinion of NSAMs
Financial AdvisorIllustrative NSAM Standalone Levered Discounted
Cash Flow Analysis beginning page 170 of the Definitive Proxy
Statement:

Goldman Sachs then divided the range of illustrative equity
values it derived by the number of fully diluted outstanding
shares of NSAM, as provided by management of NSAM. As set forth
in the June2 Presentation, this analysis indicated a range of
illustrative present values of $10.41 to $14.04 per share of NSAM
common stock, and using the Corrected Estimates and Calculations,
this analysis indicated a range of illustrative present values of
$10.84 to $14.47 per share of common stock.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements

This current report may contain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking
statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future
plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar
expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In
some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the
use of forward-looking terminology such as may, will, should,
expects, intends, plans, anticipates, believes, estimates,
predicts, or potential or the negative of these words and phrases
or similar words or phrases which are predictions of or indicate
future events or trends and which do not relate solely to
historical matters. Forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and contingencies, many
of which are beyond our control, and may cause actual results to
differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking
statement. Among others, the following uncertainties and other
factors could cause actual results to differ from those set forth
in the forward looking statements: the failure to receive, on a
timely basis or otherwise, the required approvals by NSAM, Colony
and NRF stockholders, governmental or regulatory agencies and
third parties; the risk that a condition to closing of the merger
may not be satisfied; each companys ability to consummate the
merger; operating costs and business disruption may be greater
than expected; the ability of each company to retain its senior
executives and maintain relationships with business partners
pending consummation of the merger; the ability to realize
substantial efficiencies and synergies as well as anticipated
strategic and financial benefits; and the impact of legislative,
regulatory and competitive changes. The foregoing list of factors
is not exhaustive. Additional information about these and other
factors can be found in each companys reports filed from time to
time with the SEC, including NSAMs and NRFs Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June30, 2016 and Colonys
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September30,
2016. There can be no assurance that the merger will in fact be
consummated.

We caution investors not to unduly rely on any forward-looking
statements. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the
date of this report. None of NSAM, Colony or NRF is under any
duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the
date of this report, nor to conform prior statements to actual
results or revised expectations, and none of NSAM, Colony or NRF
intends to do so.
