Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 5, 2014, RCS Capital Corporation (the “Company”) and Wilmington Trust, National Association, entered into a First Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) to that certain Indenture, dated as of April 29, 2014 (the “Original Indenture”), under which the Company had previously issued its 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”). The Supplemental Indenture corrects a scrivener’s error in the numerical value of the “Conversion Rate” contained in Section 14.01(x) of the Original Indenture. The corrected Conversion Rate of 47.2144 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Class A Common Stock”) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes corresponds to the previously disclosed “Conversion Price” of $21.18 per share of the Class A Common Stock and reflects the Company’s other previous public disclosures and the rate agreed with the investor at the time of the execution of the Commitment Letter (as defined in the Original Indenture).

 

The foregoing description of the Supplemental Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Supplemental Indenture, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
