Item 8.01 Other Events
Preferred Stock Offering
On May 29, 2007, IndyMac Bank, F.S.B. (the “Bank”), a wholly owned subsidiary of IndyMac Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), filed a Supplementary Section (the “Supplementary Section”) with the Office of Thrift Supervision (the “OTS”) for the purpose of amending its Federal Stock Charter to establish the preferences, limitations, voting powers and relative rights of its 8.50% Series A Perpetual Non-Cumulative Fixed Rate Preferred Stock, no par value and with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. The Supplementary Section became effective with the OTS upon close of business on May 29, 2007. On May 30, 2007, the Bank closed the sale of $500,000,000 of its 8.50% Series A Perpetual Non-Cumulative Fixed Rate Preferred Stock, liquidation preference $25.00 per share (the “Securities”).
The Bank offered and sold the Securities to initial purchasers who resold the Securities to “qualified institutional buyers” in reliance on Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to “non-U.S. persons” in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.
The Bank has received confirmation from the OTS that the Securities are eligible for treatment as core capital of the Bank under the OTS’ applicable regulatory capital regulations and intends to treat the Securities accordingly.
In connection with the closing of the transaction described above, on May 30, 2007, the Company and the Bank entered into a Replacement Capital Covenant (the “Covenant”) whereby the Company and the Bank will covenant that the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, or the Company or any of its finance subsidiaries, shall redeem, purchase or repurchase, as applicable, shares of the Securities only if and to the extent that the designated percentages of the aggregate amount of net cash proceeds that the Bank, any of its subsidiaries, the Company and any finance subsidiary of the Company through which the Company raises capital have received during the relevant Measurement Period (as defined in the Covenant) from the sale of common stock, rights to acquire common stock, non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock and certain other securities or combinations of securities that have equal or better equity characteristics than the Securities equal or exceed the aggregate liquidation preference redeemed, purchased or repurchased; provided, that any net cash proceeds raised by the Company (either directly or indirectly via any finance subsidiary of the Company) will only be counted for purposes of the foregoing if the proceeds so received during the relevant Measurement Period have been contributed to the Bank not later than one business day following the end of the relevant Measurement Period, and on other terms and conditions described in the Covenant. A copy of the Covenant is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
