On August 18, 2015, PennantPark Floating Rate Capital Ltd., a Maryland corporation (“PFLT”), completed its previously announced acquisition of MCG Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“MCG”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of April 28, 2015, by and among MCG, PFLT, PFLT Panama, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PFLT (“PFLT Panama”), PFLT Funding II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of PFLT (“PFLT Funding II”), and, solely for certain limited purposes under the Merger Agreement, PennantPark Investment Advisers, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and PFLT’s external investment adviser. As a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, MCG was merged with and into PFLT Panama with MCG as the surviving corporation, following which MCG was merged with and into PFLT Funding II with PFLT Funding II as the surviving company.
In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the time of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of MCG common stock (including shares of restricted stock) was converted into the right to receive (i) 0.32044 shares of PFLT’s common stock (with MCG stockholders receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares of PFLT common stock), and (ii) $0.30595 per share in cash. As a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, PFLT is expected to issue an aggregate of approximately 11.8 million shares of its common stock to former MCG stockholders, and PennantPark Investment Advisers, LLC, the investment adviser to PFLT, is expected to make an aggregate cash payment of approximately $11.3 million to former MCG stockholders.
