Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 8, 2012, Synovus Financial Corp. (the “Company”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and among the Company and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representative of the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Underwriters $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.875% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”). The Notes, which were offered and sold pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, were registered pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-166300).
The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, and termination and other customary provisions.
On February 13, 2012, the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”) entered into a senior indenture (the “Indenture”), pursuant to which the Notes were issued.
The Notes bear interest at 7.875% per annum. Interest is payable on February 15 and August 15 of each year beginning August 15, 2012, until the maturity date of February 15, 2019. The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time at the applicable redemption price.
The Indenture restricts the ability of the Company to issue, sell or otherwise dispose of any voting shares of any principal subsidiary bank, to permit the merger or consolidation of any principal subsidiary bank with another corporation and to permit the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of a principal subsidiary bank. The Indenture also restricts the ability of the Company to consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets.
The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the documents which are attached as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and each incorporated by reference herein.
