Item 8.01. Other Events.
On June 12, 2013, Taylor Capital Group, Inc. (the “Company”) sent notice to the holders of its 8% Subordinated Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”) of its election to prepay in full on June 20, 2013 the outstanding $37.5 million principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued interest thereon to June 20, 2013, plus a prepayment premium equal to 1.5% of the principal of the Notes. The Notes were issued by the Company in 2010, and have a scheduled maturity date of May 2020.

The aggregate amount of funds required to prepay the Notes is expected to be $38.1 million, consisting of $37.5 million principal amount and $0.6 million of prepayment premium and accrued interest. The funds necessary to prepay the principal amount, prepayment premium and accrued interest on the Notes will be obtained from the Company's existing cash on hand and will be sent to the Company's Transfer Agent on or about June 19, 2013. The prepayment of the Notes will result in a non-recurring, pre-tax charge of approximately $5.4 million associated with the unamortized discount, unamortized original issuance costs of the Notes and the prepayment premium.
