On August 25, 2010, Intervest Bancshares Corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement to Convert with Lowell S. Dansker, Jean Dansker and Helene Bergman, the holders of all of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class B Common Stock. Pursuant to the agreement, the holders have agreed to convert all shares of Class B Common Stock held by them into shares of Class A Common Stock at the rate of one share of Class A Common Stock for each share of Class B Common Stock. Such conversion is contingent upon and will occur simultaneously with the closing of the public offering of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock described in the Company’s Report on Form 8-K filed on August 3, 2010.
The Company has also agreed, contingent upon a closing of the offering, that it will not, from and after the closing, issue shares of its Class B Common Stock and that it will seek, at its next meeting of stockholders, approval of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to remove the Class B Common Stock from its authorized capital stock.
The description of the Agreement to Convert set forth above is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1.
