Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On April 1, 2017, Independent Bank Group, Inc., a Texas corporation and parent company of Independent Bank (“Independent”), completed the acquisition (the “Merger”) of Carlile Bancshares, Inc., a Texas corporation and parent company of Northstar Bank, Denton, Texas (“Carlile”), pursuant to that certain previously announced Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated November 21, 2016 (the “Reorganization Agreement”). Immediately following the Merger, Northstar Bank was merged with and into Independent Bank.
Under the terms of the Reorganization Agreement, Independent issued 8,804,751 shares of Independent common stock as consideration for all of the outstanding securities of Carlile and paid $19.0 million in cash to cash out options to purchase shares of Carlile common stock.
The press release issued by Independent announcing completion of the Merger is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
Four proposals were submitted to a vote of security holders at the special meeting of the shareholders of Independent held on March 30, 2017:
•Proposal One: To approve the Reorganization Agreement and the Merger.
•Proposal Two: To approve the issuance of shares of Independent common stock to Carlile shareholders in connection with the Merger.
•Proposal Three: To elect each of Tom C. Nichols, Mark K. Gormley and Christopher M. Doody to fill the three vacant director seats on Independent’s Board of Directors, with the election of such directors being subject to the completion of the Merger.
•Proposal Four: To approve the adjournment of the Independent special meeting to a later date or dates, if the Board of Directors determines it is necessary to permit solicitation of additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Independent special meeting to approve the first three proposals listed above.
Proposal One: To Approve the Agreement and the Merger
This proposal, pursuant to which Carlile would merge with and into Independent, all on and subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Reorganization Agreement and the Merger described therein, was approved with shareholders casting votes as follows:
For | Against | Abstain | Broker Non-Votes | |
Proposal One | 15,196,771 | 5,351 | 117 | — |
Proposal Two: To Approve the Issuance of Independent Common Stock
This proposal, pursuant to which Independent would issue shares of Independent common stock to Carlile shareholders in connection with the Merger, was approved with shareholders casting votes as follows:
For | Against | Abstain | Broker Non-Votes | |
Proposal Two | 15,191,581 | 10,541 | 117 | — |
Proposal Three: To Elect the Nominees to the Board of Directors
This proposal, pursuant to which each of Tom C. Nichols, Mark K. Gormley and Christopher M. Doody would be elected to fill the three vacant director seats on Independent’s Board of Directors, with the election of such directors being subject to the completion of the Merger, was approved with shareholders casting votes as follows:
For | Withhold | Broker Non-Votes | ||||
Proposal Three: | ||||||
Tom C. Nichols | 14,057,264 | 1,144,975 | — | |||
Mark K. Gormley | 15,039,392 | 162,847 | — | |||
Christopher M. Doody | 15,022,244 | 179,995 | — | |||
All three of the foregoing nominees were elected to the Independent Board of Directors upon consummation of the Merger on April 1, 2017.
Proposal Four: To Adjourn the Special Meeting of Shareholders, if Necessary
Because Proposal One, Proposal Two and Proposal Three were approved and the total votes cast on each of Proposal One, Proposal Two and Proposal Three represented over the requisite percentage of outstanding securities entitled to vote, no adjournment to solicit additional proxies was necessary and, therefore, no action was required with respect to Proposal Four.
