Item 3.02 | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. |
On June 19, 2015, Sun Communities, Inc. (the “Company”) issued to GCP Fund III Ancillary Holding, LLC (the “Purchaser”) (i) 25,664 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Shares”) at an issuance price of $50.00 per share, or $1,283,200 in the aggregate, and (ii) 34,219 shares of the Company’s 6.50% Series A-4 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”) at an issuance price of $25.00 per share, or $855,475 in the aggregate. All of the Common Shares and Preferred Shares were issued for cash consideration pursuant to the terms of a Subscription Agreement, dated July 30, 2014, as amended, among the Company, Green Court Real Estate Partners III, LLC, and certain other parties. The parties have agreed that no additional securities are issuable under the Subscription Agreement.
The issuance by the Company of the Common Shares and Preferred Shares was made in reliance upon the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or Regulation D, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, based upon the following: (i) the Purchaser confirmed to the Company that it is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act), and (ii) the Purchaser acknowledged that all securities being purchased were being purchased for investment intent and were “restricted securities” for purposes of the Securities Act, and agreed to transfer such securities only in a transaction registered under the Securities Act or exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
The Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock. The description of such conversion rights set forth in Item 5.03 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated November 25, 2014 is incorporated herein by reference.
On June 22, 2015, the Company filed a prospectus supplement to register the offer and sale of the Common Shares and Preferred Shares from time to time by the Purchaser under the Securities Act pursuant to the Company's effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-203502).
