Item 8.01. Other Events

On March 9, 2015, Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) consummated the early redemption of all $10.5 million of the trust preferred securities issued by Enterprise (MA) Capital Trust I, a statutory business trust created under the laws of Delaware, in March 2000. The trust preferred securities carried an interest rate of 10.875% and were scheduled to mature on March 8, 2030. The trust preferred securities were callable at a premium of $102.719 plus accrued interest for a total redemption price of $11.4 million.

The redemption of the trust preferred securities was approved by the Company’s primary federal regulator on January 29, 2015 and was funded with a portion of the proceeds from the Company’s previously announced $15.0 million private placement of subordinated notes that was completed in January 2015.
