On December 1, 2014, Signature Group Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, SGH Escrow Corporation, plans to conduct a private offering of senior secured notes due 2019 in an aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million (the “Notes”). These Notes are to be offered in connection with the Company’s previously announced, pending acquisition by its wholly owned subsidiary, Real Alloy Holding Inc. (“Real Alloy”), of the equity interests of certain entities, together with their subsidiaries, comprising the global recycling and specification alloys business of Aleris Corporation (the “GRSA Acquisition”). Following the GRSA Acquisition, the Notes will be the senior obligations of Real Alloy and will be guaranteed by Real Alloy’s direct parent, Real Alloy Intermediate Holding, LLC and by Real Alloy’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries, and the Notes and related guarantees will be secured by first priority security interests in the fixed assets of Real Alloy and the guarantors of the Notes and second priority security interests in certain other collateral of Real Alloy and the guarantors.

The proposed offering of Notes referenced herein will be made only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to persons outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. Neither the Notes nor the related guarantees have been registered under the Securities Act or any state or other securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

While the Company pursues its subsidiary’s proposed private offering of the Notes, its board will continue evaluating (i) potential transactions resulting from its previously announced engagement of a financial advisor to evaluate strategic alternatives for its wholly owned subsidiary NABCO, and  (ii) potential equity financings, which may include registered underwritten and registered direct offerings of its common stock.

Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K nor the press release referenced above constitutes an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities law of any such state or jurisdiction.

The following is filed as an exhibit to this report:
