PREFERRED CAPITAL OFFERING

NOTE 8 – PREFERRED CAPITAL OFFERING

 

On December 23, 2014, the Company completed its public offering of 1,500,000 depository shares, each representing a 1/100th ownership interest in a 6.50 percent Noncumulative Convertible Preferred Share, Series A, of the Company with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (equivalent to $10.00 per depository shares). The Company sold the maximum of 1,500,000 depository shares in the offering, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $15,000,000. Net proceeds to the Company after all expenses related to the offering were $13,983,000.

 

Each Series A Preferred Share, at the option of the holder, is convertible at any time into the number of common shares equal to $1,000.00 divided by the conversion price then in effect, which at March 31, 2015, was $10.34. The conversion price may be adjusted under certain circumstances, including in the event the Company pays quarterly dividends on its common stock in excess of a specified amount. On or after the fifth anniversary of the issue date of the Series A Preferred Shares (December 23, 2019), the Company may require all holders of Series A Preferred Shares (and, therefore, depository shares) to convert their shares into common shares of the Company, provided the Company’s common share price exceeds 120 percent of the conversion price noted above. At September 30, 2015, the aggregate number of common shares issuable upon the conversion of outstanding Series A Preferred Shares was 1,450,677.
