Item 5.04. Temporary Suspension of Trading under Registrant’s Employee Benefit Plans.
First Horizon National Corporation (“FHNC”) has provided a notice to participants in FHNC’s Savings Plan (the “Plan”) informing them that there will be a temporary “blackout period” that will apply to the Plan due to the Plan’s engagement of a new administrator. The notice stated that, during the blackout period, Plan participants will be unable to change investments in their individual accounts, change their deferral elections, obtain a loan from the Plan, or obtain a distribution from the Plan. The notice further stated that the blackout period will be in effect beginning at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on March 26, 2015 and is expected to end during the week of April 13, 2015.
In connection with the foregoing, on February 13, 2015, FHNC sent a notice to its directors and executive officers informing them that they are prohibited from, directly or indirectly, purchasing, selling, or otherwise acquiring or transferring any equity securities of FHNC (or derivatives thereof). The notice further stated that the prohibition is required by Section 306(a) of the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 and governed by Regulation BTR of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The notice to directors and executive officers is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
During the blackout period and for a period of two years after the ending date thereof, a security holder of FHNC or other interested person may obtain, without charge, information regarding the actual beginning and ending dates of the blackout period, by contacting:
