Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 5, 2015, Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (the “Company”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Deutsch Bank Securities Inc. and BMO Capital Markets Corp. (collectively, the “Initial Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, and the Initial Purchasers agreed to purchase, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, $75 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”). The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, conditions to closing, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

On March 11, 2015, the Company closed the issuance and sale of $75 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or any other securities laws, and were offered and sold to the Initial Purchasers in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act. The Initial Purchasers anticipate selling the Notes to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $71.7 million after deducting the Initial Purchasers’ discount and the estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of March 11, 2015, between the Company and U.S. Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). A copy of the Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.50% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2015. The Notes will mature on March 15, 2020, unless earlier purchased or converted. Upon conversion, holders of the Notes will receive cash, shares of common stock of the Company, par value $1.00 per share (“Common Stock”), or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the Company’s election. Unless the Company elects to deliver solely shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion may be subject to a “conversion share cap” unless and until the Company obtains shareholder approval to issue more than 19.99% of Common Stock outstanding at the time the Notes were initially issued in accordance the listing standards of NYSE MKT.

If the Company undergoes a “fundamental change” (as defined in the Indenture), subject to certain conditions, holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes. The fundamental change repurchase price for the Notes generally will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the day immediately preceding December 15, 2019 only upon the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to the closing sale price of the Common Stock, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes and specified corporate events.

The initial conversion rate will be 14.5136 shares of Common Stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $68.90 per share of Common Stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The Company may not redeem the Notes prior to the stated maturity date and no sinking fund is provided for the Notes.

If an event of default (as defined in the Indenture) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes may declare the principal amount of the Notes to be due and payable immediately. In the case of an event of default arising out of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization (as set forth in the Indenture), the principal amount of the Notes and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will automatically become immediately due and payable.


The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and rank (i) senior in right of payment to any existing and future indebtedness of the Company that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; (ii) equal in right of payment to any existing and future unsecured indebtedness of the Company that is not so subordinated; (iii) effectively junior to any secured indebtedness of the Company to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and (iv) structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness, other liabilities (including trade payables) incurred by the Company’s subsidiaries, unless and to the extent such subsidiaries in the future guarantee the Notes.

The preceding description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture and the form of Notes, copies of which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
