Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 16, 2010, Care Investment Trust Inc.
(the Company) entered into a purchase and sale agreement (the Agreement) with Tiptree Financial Partners,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (Tiptree), for the
sale of control of the Company through a
combination of an equity investment by Tiptree in newly issued common stock at $9.00 per share and a cash
tender offer (the Tender Offer) by the Company for up to 100% of the Companys currently issued and outstanding shares of
common stock also for $9.00 per share, as long as at least 10,300,000 shares are validly tendered and not
withdrawn prior to the expiration date of the Tender Offer. The Tiptree equity investment and the Tender
Offer are collectively referred to as the Transaction.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will sell shares
to Tiptree upon the completion of the Tender Offer. The number of shares to be sold to Tiptree
will be at least 4,445,000, subject to upward adjustment (a) to fund
the purchase of shares by the Company in the Tender Offer if more
than 18 million shares are tendered in the Tender Offer, or (b) at
the election of Tiptree, if fewer than 16.5 million shares are
tendered in the Tender Offer, in order to give Tiptree ownership of up
to 53.4% of the shares of the Companys common stock on a fully-diluted
basis after taking into account the shares tendered by the stockholders to the Company in the Tender Offer. Tiptrees
agreement to make the equity investment is subject to our ability to complete the Tender Offer, obtain stockholder
approval for the issuance of common stock to Tiptree and additional customary closing conditions.
In connection with the Transaction, the Company and
