The disclosure under Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. As partial consideration in the Epic Acquisition (as defined below), Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation (the “Company”) has agreed to issue $125.0 million of shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Restricted Shares”) to affiliates of White Deer Energy and Blue Water Energy LLP (the “Holders”). The Restricted Shares will be issued at a 1.5% discount to the 30-day volume weighted average price per share of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the 30 consecutive trading days ending with the second trading day prior to the closing date of the Epic Acquisition. The Restricted Shares will be issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration under the federal securities laws provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
In connection with the Epic Acquisition, the Company will enter into a registration rights agreement with the Holders pursuant to which the Company will agree to register the Restricted Shares for resale with the Securities and Exchange Commission at the Holders’ request.
