Explanatory Note
On July 11, 2014, RCS Capital Corporation (the “RCAP”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”) in which it announced, among other things, that, on July 11, 2014, it completed its previously announced acquisition of Investors Capital Holdings, Ltd. (“ICH”) pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 27, 2013, as amended as of February 28, 2014, by and among RCAP, Zoe Acquisition, LLC and ICH. The Company is filing this Amended Current Report on Form 8-K for the purpose of clarifying that, a result of RCAP’s determination the acquisition of ICH is not a significant acquisition, financial statements of ICH are not required to be filed by Item 9.01(a) of Form 8-K and unaudited pro forma financial information taking into account the acquisition is not required to be filed by Item 9.01(b) of Form 8-K. Accordingly, Items Item 9.01(a) and Item 9.01(b) contained in the Original 8-K are hereby deleted in their entirety.
