Item 1.01.              Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 30, 2013, Air Lease Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, for itself and as representative of the underwriter listed in Schedule 1 thereto (the “Underwriter”), and the selling securityholders listed in Schedule 2 thereto (the “Selling Securityholders”), relating to the sale by the Selling Securityholders to the Underwriter of an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Securities”).  The Selling Securityholders also agreed to sell, severally and not jointly, to the Underwriter, at the option of the Underwriter, an aggregate of not more than 800,000 additional shares of the Securities.

 

The Securities are being offered pursuant to a registration statement (File No. 333-185378) that the Company previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as supplemented by a preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on May 28, 2013, and a final prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on May 31, 2013.  The Company is not selling any shares of Class A Common Stock in the offering and will not receive any proceeds from the sale. The total number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock outstanding will not change as a result of this offering.

 

The foregoing description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Underwriter and its affiliates have provided in the past to the Company and its affiliates, and may provide to the Company and its affiliates from time to time in the future, certain commercial banking, financial advisory, investment banking and other services in the ordinary course of business, for which they have received and may receive customary payments of interest, fees and commissions.  In addition, certain affiliates of the Underwriter are lenders under the Company’s credit agreements.

The Company issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Securities on May 30, 2013. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
