On November 16, 2016, Park National Corporation (“Park”) purchased from Yadkin Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Yadkin Financial Corporation, all five thousand outstanding shares of Fixed Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (the “Preferred Stock”), of NewDominion Bank, a North Carolina chartered bank. Park paid Yadkin Bank $700.00 per share for the Preferred Stock, with an aggregate purchase price of $3.5 million.
Immediately following the purchase of the Preferred Stock from Yadkin Bank, Park exchanged all such Preferred Stock with NewDominion Bank for 1,795,000 shares of voting common stock and 4,686,481 shares of non-voting common stock of NewDominion Bank (collectively, the “New Shares”), which results in Park owning 4.9% of the outstanding shares of voting common stock of NewDominion Bank and 8.8% of all of the outstanding common stock (including both voting and non-voting) of NewDominion Bank.
