Shareholder Rights Agreement | Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Rights Agreement (the “Rights Agreement”), dated as of November 18, 2013, with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent, one purchase right (a “Right”) was attached to each outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock. Each Right entitled the registered holder to purchase from Tredegar one one-hundredth of a share of our Series A Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) at an exercise price of $150, subject to adjustment (the “Purchase Price”). Unless otherwise noted in the Rights Agreement, the Rights would have become exercisable, if not earlier redeemed, only if a person or group (i) acquired beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock or (ii) commenced, or publicly disclosed an intention to commence, a tender offer or exchange offer that would have resulted in beneficial ownership by a person or group of 20% or more of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock. On February 19, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the termination of the Rights Agreement and the redemption of all of the outstanding Rights, at a redemption price of $.01 per Right to be paid in cash to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 3, 2014. The corresponding redemption payment of $0.3 million was made in the first quarter of 2014.
