Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On January 30, 2015, Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) issued an aggregate of $15.0 million of Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes Due 2030 (the “Notes”) pursuant to a Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement, dated January 30, 2015 (the “Agreement”), by and between an accredited investor and the Company. The Notes have a maturity date of January 30, 2030 and bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.00% per annum through January 30, 2025 and at a variable rate of 30 day LIBOR plus 3.90% per annum through January 30, 2030.
The Company may, at its option, beginning on January 30, 2020, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. The redemption price is equal to (i) 104.0% of the principal amount of Subordinated Debt to be redeemed on or after January 30, 2020 but before January 30, 2022, (ii) 103.0% of the principal amount of Subordinated Debt to be redeemed on or after January 30, 2022 but before January 30, 2025; and (iii) 100.0% of the principal amount of Subordinated Debt to be redeemed if redeemed on or after January 30, 2025 but before the Maturity Date.
The Notes will be unsecured, subordinated obligations of the Company and will rank junior in right of payment to any senior indebtedness and obligations to its general and secured creditors.
The Notes are intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes. The Company expects to use $10.5 million of the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to redeem its Trust Preferred Securities. The Company plans to use the remainder of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes.
The Notes were offered and sold in reliance on the exemptions from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder. Accordingly, the Notes were offered and sold exclusively to an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.
The foregoing summary description of the Agreement and the Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Agreement, a copy of which is filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
