Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On July 9, 2012, BNC Bancorp, a North Carolina corporation (the “Company”), entered into the First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Amendment”) with KeySource Financial, Inc., a North Carolina corporation (“KeySource”), which amends the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 21, 2011 previously entered into by the Company and KeySource (the “Agreement”) to consummate the strategic business combination transaction provided for therein in which KeySource will, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Agreement, merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), so that the Company is the surviving corporation in the Merger.
The Amendment provides revised representations and warranties to reflect the securities issued by the Company in a private placement that closed on June 8, 2012. The Amendment also allows for a delay of the closing of the Merger with KeySource to September 14, 2012. Finally, the Amendment adds a termination fee in certain events of $1,000,000, plus documented out-of-pocket legal, financial advisory, investment banking, accounting and other professional and due diligence expenses of up to $250,000, payable to KeySource in the event that KeySource terminates the Agreement after (i) the Company materially breaches certain of its representations or warranties and fails to cure such breach or (ii) the Merger fails to close on or before September 14, 2012, unless the failure to close is due to the failure to receive required regulatory approvals or KeySource’s “classified assets” as defined in the Agreement exceed $20.0 million as of the date of termination by KeySource.
The foregoing summary of the Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
