Item 3.03. | Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders |
In connection with Resource Capital Corp.’s (the “Company”) previously announced 1-for-4 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), on August 28, 2015, the Company filed articles of amendment (the “Articles of Amendment”) to its charter with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation. The Reverse Stock Split was effective as of 5:00 PM Eastern time on August 31, 2015 (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, every four shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding were automatically combined into one issued and outstanding new share of Common Stock. Immediately following the Effective Time, the par value of the Common Stock was $0.001 per share.
The Reverse Stock Split affected all record holders of Common Stock uniformly and did not affect any record holder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except for de minimus changes as a result of the elimination of fractional shares. The Reverse Stock Split reduced the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding from approximately 132,000,000 shares to approximately 33,000,000 shares and reduced the number of the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock on a 1-for-4 basis, from 500,000,000 shares to 125,000,000 shares.
The Common Stock began trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) at the opening of trading on September 1, 2015. The Common Stock will continue trading on the NYSE under the symbol “RSO” with a new CUSIP number (76120W 708).
Fractional shares of Common Stock will not be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split; instead, holders of pre-split shares of Common Stock who otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will receive an amount in cash based on $12.96 per post-split share for such fractional interests; provided, however, that holders of any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Company’s Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP Shares”) are entitled to receive fractional shares with respect to the DRIP Shares upon the Effective Time to the extent applicable.
Holders of Common Stock who hold in “street name” in their brokerage accounts do not have to take any action as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Their accounts will be automatically adjusted to reflect the number of shares owned. A letter relating to the Reverse Stock Split will be sent to record holders of certificates of Common Stock and holders of Common Stock who own their shares in electronically recorded registered form within twenty days of the Effective Time. Stockholders who receive this letter should follow the instructions in that letter. All Common Stock issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split for certificated shares or shares in electronically recorded registered form shall be in electronically recorded registered form.
The Reverse Stock Split did not affect the number of authorized or outstanding shares of the Company’s 8.50% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), 8.25% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), 8.625% Fixed-to Floating Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock” and, together with the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”), or the dividend rate per share of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. However, at the Effective Time, the respective change of control conversion right share caps and exchange caps of the Company’s Preferred Stock automatically adjusted as follows:
• | the share cap of the Series A Preferred Stock adjusted from 9.311 to 2.32775, and the exchange cap of the Series A Preferred Stock adjusted from 93,110,000 to 23,277,500; |
• | the share cap of the Series B Preferred Stock adjusted from 7.9618 to 1.99045, and the exchange cap of the Series B Preferred Stock adjusted from 79,618,000 to 19,904,500; and |
• | the share cap of its Series C Preferred Stock adjusted from 8.69565 to 2.17391, and the exchange cap of the Series C Preferred Stock adjusted from 86,956,500 to 21,739,125. |
At the Effective Time, the respective conversion rates of the Company’s 6.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2018 (the “6.00% Convertible Senior Notes”) and 8.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (the “8.00% Convertible Senior Notes”) automatically adjusted as follows:
• | the conversion rate of the 6.00% Convertible Senior Notes adjusted from 150.1502 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of such notes to 37.53755 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of such notes; and |
• | the conversion rate of the 8.00% Convertible Senior Notes adjusted from 187.4414 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of such notes to 46.86035 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of such notes. |
