Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

 

The information set forth in Items 3 and 4 is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The following is a description of certain terms of the Investment Agreement and related transaction documents:

 

Representations and Warranties. Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, the Company made customary representations and warranties to the Fund VIII Entities relating to, among other things, the Company, its business, the issuance of the Shares and authorization to enter into the transaction. The Fund VIII Entities also made customary representations and warranties to the Company regarding, among other things, each of the Fund VIII Entities’ valid organization and authorization to enter into the transaction. The Company’s and Fund VIII Entities’ representations and warranties generally expire twelve months following the Closing Date (as defined in the Investment Agreement), with the exception of certain fundamental representations of the Company, which survive for the maximum amount of time permitted under applicable law, and certain representations regarding, tax, environmental and employee benefit matters, which survive until 30 days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

 

Transfer Restrictions. The Fund VIII Entities agreed not to sell or dispose of the Shares unless doing so was in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the “Securities Act”) and applicable state, federal or foreign securities laws.

 

Ownership Limitation and Avoidance of Control. Upon execution of the Investment Agreement, each of the Fund VIII Entities agreed that neither it nor its affiliates (for purposes of any banking regulation or law) shall be entitled to purchase shares of Common Stock that would result in the Fund VIII Entities and their affiliates collectively being deemed to own, control or have the power to vote more than 9.9% of the Company’s issued and outstanding voting securities.

 

Indemnification. The Company agreed to indemnify the Fund VIII Entities, their controlling persons and each of their directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, agents, investment advisors and those with similar roles (each a “Fund VIII Party”) for losses and liabilities suffered or incurred as a result of (i) the Company’s breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in the Investment Agreement or any other transaction documents or (ii) any action instituted against a Fund VIII Party in any capacity by any shareholder of the Company or other third party who is not an affiliate of such Fund VIII Party. The Company’s indemnification obligations are subject to the limitations set forth in the Investment Agreement (including the expiration of certain of the representations and warranties, as described above).

 

Shareholder Approval. The Company agreed to call and hold its annual shareholders’ meeting no later than May 31, 2023 to, among other matters, vote upon the approval required by the rules of the NASDAQ Global Select Market in connection with the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 19.9% (the “Exchange Cap”) of the outstanding shares immediately prior to the execution of the Investment Agreement and upon approval and adoption of the Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Formation authorizing the non-voting common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company (collectively, the “Shareholder Proposals”).

 

Voting Agreement. In connection with, and simultaneously with the execution of, the Investment Agreement, the Fund VIII Entities entered into a voting agreement (the “Voting Agreement”), pursuant to which each of the Fund VIII Entities agreed to vote the shares held by such Fund VIII Entity in favor of the Shareholder Proposals. The Castle Creek Letter Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.5 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Board Representation. Pursuant to a side letter agreement entered into between the Company and Fund VIII on September 30, 2022 (the “Castle Creek Letter Agreement”), upon the written request of Fund VIII the Company will request the non-objection or approval of the Federal Reserve and the Texas Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending, to the extent required, for the appointment of a Fund VIII designee to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board Representative”) and will thereafter, within five business days following receipt of such non-objection or approval, cause the Board Representative to be elected or appointed to the Board and the board of directors of Third Coast Bank, SSB (the “Bank Board”), in each case subject to satisfaction of legal and regulatory requirements and in each case as long as Fund VIII owns 4.9% or more of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (calculated as set forth in the Castle Creek Letter Agreement). If Fund VIII has the right to a Board Representative, Fund VIII may also appoint a nonvoting, nonparticipating observer to the Board and the Bank Board (the “Board Observer”) to attend meetings of the Board and Bank Board (including any committee meetings which the Board Representative would have been permitted to attend).

 

 

Gross-Up Rights. Pursuant to the Castle Creek Letter Agreement, for so long as Fund VIII, together with its affiliates, owns, in the aggregate, 4.9% or more of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (calculated as set forth in the Castle Creek Letter Agreement), if the Company makes any public or nonpublic offering or sale of any equity (including Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock or Non-Voting Common Stock), or any securities, options or debt that is convertible or exchangeable into equity or that includes an equity component, then, subject to certain exceptions, Fund VIII will be entitled to acquire from the Company for the same price and on the same terms as such securities are proposed to be offered to others, up to the amount of new securities in the aggregate required to enable it to maintain its proportionate Common Stock equivalent interest in the Company immediately prior to any such issuance of new securities. In addition, as long as Fund VIII, together with its affiliates, owns, in the aggregate, 4.9% or more of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Company shall not issue any shares or equity securities that rank senior to the Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, as applicable, with respect to dividends or liquidation rights, in each case without the prior written consent of Fund VIII.

 

No Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the Castle Creek Letter Agreement, for so long as Fund VIII, together with its affiliates, owns, in the aggregate, 4.9% or more of all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (calculated as set forth in the Castle Creek Letter Agreement), the Company shall not enter into any poison pill agreement, shareholders’ rights plan or similar agreement that limits the rights of Fund VIII to hold any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Non-Voting Common Stock or Common Stock or Warrants or acquire additional securities of the Company unless such poison pill agreement, shareholders’ rights plan or similar agreement grants an exemption or waiver to Fund VIII that would allow the Lead Investor and its Affiliates and associates to acquire such additional securities of the Company. The Castle Creek Letter Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.4 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Registration Rights. In connection with the Investment Agreement, the Company, Fund VIII, Fund VIII Co-Invest and certain other investors entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of September 30, 2022 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company granted Fund VIII and Fund VIII Co-Invest (i) customary mandatory registration rights, requiring the Company to file a registration statement in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement no later than September 30, 2024 and (ii) customary piggyback registration rights and shelf registration rights. The Registration Rights Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.6 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Warrant. The Company and Fund VIII entered into the Warrant Agreement to, among other things, authorize and establish the terms of the Warrant, subject to certain adjustments described below. The Warrant is exercisable at any time, and from time to time, in whole or in part, until September 30, 2029. However, the exercise of such Warrant remains subject to the Exchange Cap and regulatory approval if Fund VIII’s ownership of Common Stock would exceed 9.9%.

 

The exercise price (currently $22.50 per share of Common Stock) and the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is exercisable are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events including: (1) the Company declaring a dividend or making a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (2) splitting, subdividing or reclassifying the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (3) a distribution to all holders of Common Stock of cash, any shares of any class other than the Company’s Common Stock, evidences of indebtedness of the Company, rights or warrants of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon Fund VIII’s election, Fund VIII will receive the same cash dividends on the Warrant as common stockholders instead of an adjustment to the exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is exercisable. The Warrant Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

ERISA Matters. Fund VIII was provided customary VCOC rights pursuant to a VCOC Letter Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2022, by and between Fund VIII and the Company (the “VCOC Letter Agreement”), including the right to receive regular financial reports (including, but not limited to, annual and quarterly financial reports), the right to inspect the books and records of the Company and the right to consult with management of the Company on matters relating to the business and affairs of the Company; provided, however, that this provision does not entitle Fund VIII to consult with management of the Company on matters relating to the business and affairs of the Company more than once per calendar quarter. The Company also agreed to consider, in good faith, the recommendations of Fund VIII or its designated representative in connection with the matters on which it is consulted as described above, recognizing that the ultimate discretion with respect to all such matters shall be retained by the Company. The VCOC Letter Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.7 and incorporated herein by reference.
