Campus Crest Communities, Inc. Announces Exercise of Underwriters’ Option & Subsequent Closing of Private Offering of $100 ...

Campus Crest Communities, Inc. (NYSE:CCG) (the “Company”) announced today that Campus Crest Communities Operating Partnership, LP, the operating partnership through which the Company conducts its operations (the “Operating Partnership”), closed its previously announced private offering of $100 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.75% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2018 (“Notes”), including $15 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued and sold pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Operating Partnership. The Company will guarantee the payment of amounts due on the Notes.

Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15, beginning April 15, 2014. The Notes will mature on October 15, 2018, unless repurchased or exchanged in accordance with their terms prior to such date.

Upon exchange of Notes, the Operating Partnership will deliver, cash, shares of Campus Crest common stock or a combination of both, at an initial exchange rate of 79.6020 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial exchange price of approximately $12.56 per share of Campus Crest common stock). At any time prior to July 15, 2018, the operating partnership may irrevocably elect, in its sole discretion without the consent of the holders of the Notes, to settle all of its future exchange obligation entirely in shares of Campus Crest common stock.

The Operating Partnership intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for the repayment of debt, future development or for other general corporate and working capital purposes.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Notes, nor shall there be any sale of such Notes in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or other jurisdiction.

The Notes were offered and sold only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Neither the Notes nor any shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued upon exchange of the Notes have been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.
