Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 22, 2013, INTL FCStone Inc. (the “Company”) completed the sale of $40,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8.5% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued under an Indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of July 22, 2013, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by Supplement No. 1, dated as of July 22, 2013, to the Indenture between the Company and the Trustee, establishing the terms and providing for the issuance of the Notes (the “Supplemental Indenture”).
The Indenture, the Supplemental Indenture and the form of the Note, which is included in the Supplemental Indenture, provide, among other things, that the Notes bear interest at a rate of 8.5% per year (payable quarterly on January 30, April 30, July 30 and October 30 of each year, beginning on October 30, 2013), that interest on the Notes begins accruing on July 22, 2013, and that the Notes will mature on July 30, 2020.
The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on and after July 30, 2016, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. Additionally, the Company may at any time repurchase Notes at any price in the open market and may hold, resell or surrender such Notes to the Trustee for cancellation.
The Notes are the Company's senior unsecured obligations, and rank on a parity with all of the Company's other existing and future senior unsecured obligations.
The Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture contain customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing with respect to any series of the Notes, then the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the outstanding Notes of that series may declare the Notes of that series to be due and payable immediately. In addition, in the case of an event of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately.
The descriptions of the Indenture, the Supplemental Indenture, and the Notes set forth above are qualified by reference to the Indenture, the Supplemental Indenture, and the form of Note filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
The Notes are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-186704) that the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 15, 2013 (as amended and supplemented). The Company is filing certain exhibits as part of this Current Report on Form 8-K for purposes of such Registration Statement. See “Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.”
