RULE 13E-3 TRANSACTION STATEMENT
This Final Amendment to Schedule 13E-3 is filed by South Street Financial Corp. (the “Company”) pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 13E-3 thereunder. This Final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) as a final amendment to report the results of the Company’s conversion of all outstanding shares of Common Stock held by record shareholders owning less than 750 shares to a new class of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Conversion”).
At the Company’s Special Meeting of Stockholders held March 20, 2007 (the “Special Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders holding shares of the Company’s common stock representing the required majority of votes approved the Conversion. On March 21, 2007, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the North Carolina Secretary of State to effect the Conversion. The Conversion was effective at 11:59 p.m. on March 22, 2007. For a period of thirty days following the Effective Date, those shareholders holding shares of Preferred Stock as a result of the Conversion will be entitled to sell such shares to the Company at $10.00 a share. The Conversion did not change the shares of any shareholder who owns 750 or more shares of common stock as of the Effective Date (or who holds any number of common stock shares in their broker’s name)—they continue to own their shares of the Company’s common stock after the Conversion.
The Conversion has reduced the number of the Company’s record stockholders to less than 300, enabling the Company to terminate its registration and suspend its reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Concurrently with the filing of this Final Amendment to Schedule 13E-3, the Company is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Form 15 to terminate its reporting obligations under Sections 12(g) and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
