ITEM 7.01 REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.

 

As previously disclosed on May 19, 2015, HC2 Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), issued a press release announcing that it had delivered to the Board of Directors of MCG Capital Corporation (“MCG”) a revised proposal (the “Proposal”) to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of MCG on a fully-diluted basis for $5.25 per share, with the proposed consideration to consist of (a) an amount of HC2 common stock valued at $4.75 (utilizing a floating exchange ratio subject to a customary 15% symmetrical collar that will result in the issuance of between .37 and .50 of a share of HC2 common stock for each share of MCG common stock), and (b) $0.50 in cash, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Proposal.

 

On May 22, 2015, the Company issued a press release clarifying that the proposed consideration in the Proposal of $5.25 per share of MCG common stock would not be reduced by the termination fee payable by MCG under the Agreement and Plan of Merger between MCG and PennantPark Floating Rate Capital Ltd. 

 

The press release issued on May 22, 2015, is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The information in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
