Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
On May 25, 2012, UNS Energy Corporation (the “Company”), formerly known as UniSource Energy Corporation, gave notice of the redemption of all of its outstanding 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2035 (the “Convertible Notes”), totalling $34.7 million in aggregate principal amount, on June 11, 2012 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest. The Convertible Notes were convertible by the holders thereof into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the conversion rate of 29.001 shares of Common Stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes converted. Rather than having their interests redeemed, on or prior to June 11, 2012, holders of $34,466,000 aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes converted their interests into 999,535 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The remaining $188,000 aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes was redeemed for cash on June 11, 2012.
Set forth below is a chart that shows the conversions:
Conversion Date | Principal Amount of Convertible Notes Converted | Number of Shares of Common Stock Issued | ||||||
June 1, 2012 | $ | 4,997,000 | 144,915 | |||||
June 4, 2012 | $ | 48,000 | 1,392 | |||||
June 5, 2012 | $ | 1,310,000 | 37,990 | |||||
June 6, 2012 | $ | 11,649,000 | 337,830 | |||||
June 7, 2012 | $ | 3,187,000 | 92,423 | |||||
June 8, 2012 | $ | 13,275,000 | 384,985 | |||||
Total | $ | 34,466,000 | 999,535 | |||||
In addition, on May 2, 2012, holders of $208,000 aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes converted their interests into 6,032 shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
The shares of the Company’s Common Stock were issued solely to former holders of the Convertible Notes upon conversion pursuant to the exemption from registration provided under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. This exemption is available to the Company because the shares of the Company’s Common Stock were exchanged by the Company with its existing security holders with no commission or other remunerations being paid or given for soliciting such an exchange.
