Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
On March 17, 2016, Teleflex Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into separate, privately negotiated agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with certain of the holders (the “Holders”) of the Company’s 3.875% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2017 (the “Notes”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to exchange $219.2 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes for exchange consideration per $1,000 principal amount of Notes equal to: (i) cash in an amount equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, (ii) a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the amount of the conversion value in excess of the principal amount calculated over an averaging period, (iii) an inducement payment to be paid in shares of the Company’s common stock and (iv) cash in an amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the closing date. The Company intends to fund the $219.2 million aggregate principal amount through borrowings under its revolving credit agreement. Following the exchanges, which are expected to close on or about April 4, 2016, subject to customary closing conditions, $136.2 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes will remain outstanding. The issuance of the shares of the Company’s common stock to the Holders pursuant to the Exchange Agreements will be made pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 3(a)(9) thereof.
In connection with entering into the Exchange Agreements, the Company has also entered into agreements with dealers party to certain convertible note hedge transactions related to the Notes, in order to unwind a corresponding portion of such convertible note hedge transactions. The Company has also entered into agreements with such dealer counterparties to unwind certain warrant transactions. On a net basis after giving effect to the agreements to unwind the convertible note hedge transactions and the agreements to unwind the warrant transactions, the Company expects to receive from such dealer counterparties a number of shares of its common stock to be calculated over the averaging period.
