On June 11, 2014, VantageSouth Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has repurchased from the United States Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) the Company’s outstanding warrants to purchase (i) 833,705 shares of the Company’s common stock, and (ii) 514,693.2 shares of the Company’s common stock. The warrant to purchase 833,705 shares of the Company’s common stock was issued to Treasury on January 9, 2009 in connection with the Company’s participation in the TARP Capital Purchase Program. The warrant to purchase 514,693.2 shares of the Company’s common stock was issued to Treasury in connection with the Company’s acquisition of ECB Bancorp, Inc. in April 2013. The Company paid an aggregate cash purchase price of $2,552,000 for the repurchase of the warrants, which have been cancelled. The repurchase price was based on the fair market value of each warrant as agreed upon by the Company and Treasury. Following the repurchase of the warrants on June 11, 2014, Treasury has no remaining equity stake in the Company.
