Item 8.01 Other Events.
On November 5, 2012, CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) redeemed all 460,000 outstanding shares of 7.75% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series C Shares”), and all outstanding depositary shares (“Depositary Shares”), each representing 1/10th of a Series C Share (NYSE: CBLPrC - CUSIP No.: 124830-50-6).
The aggregate amount paid to effect the redemption of the Series C Shares (including the Depositary Shares) was approximately $115.9 million, including accrued and unpaid dividends, which was funded with a portion of the net proceeds from CBL's recent issuance of depositary shares, each representing 1/10th of a share of its newly designated 6.625% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. The Company recorded a charge of $3.8 million as additional preferred dividends in the fourth quarter of 2012 in connection with the redemption of the Series C Shares to write off direct issuance costs that were recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital when the Series C Shares were issued.
A copy of the Company's press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
