Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On August 9, 2005, First Security Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Purchase Agreement with Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc., as representative of the several underwriters named in the Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 4,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the underwriters named in the Purchase Agreement (the “Underwriters”) at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, less an underwriting discount of $0.70 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company, before expenses, of $41,850,000. In addition, the Underwriters were granted the option, for a period of third days, to purchase from the Company up to 675,000 additional shares of common stock at the same purchase price to cover over-allotments, if any.
On August 15, 2005, the Company closed the sale of 4,500,000 shares of common stock at the price set forth above. The shares were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-125722) originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 10, 2005.
