This Amendment No. 2, dated November 23, 2015 (this “Amendment No. 2”), supplements and amends the Statement on Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, 2011 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as supplemented and amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on December 30, 2014 (the “Amendment No. 1”; the Original Schedule 13D as supplemented and amended by the Amendment No. 1, the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the common stock, no par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of CommunityOne Bancorp, formerly known as FNB United Corp. (the “Issuer”) and is being filed on behalf of the Reporting Persons. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 2 and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D. The number of shares presented herein reflects the effectiveness of a one-for-one hundred reverse stock split on October 31, 2011. Except as otherwise specified in this Amendment No. 2, items in the Schedule 13D remain unchanged.

 

Item 4.    Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

 

The Merger Agreement

 

On November 22, 2015, the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and between the Issuer and Capital Bank Financial Corp., a Delaware Corporation (“CBF”), pursuant to which, at the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Issuer will merge with and into CBF, and CBF will continue its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Merger”). Additionally, at the Effective Time and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, each share of the Issuer’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Exception Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) will be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder but subject to proration, either:

 

(i)$14.25 in cash without interest (the “Cash Consideration”; the shares of Issuer Common Stock electing to receive the Cash Consideration, the “Cash Election Shares”), or

 

(ii)0.4300 shares of common stock of CBF (the “Stock Consideration”) (subject to the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares).

 

The Support Agreement

 

Consummation of the Merger is subject to customary conditions, including the receipt of the Requisite Company Vote (as defined in the Merger Agreement) approving the Merger Agreement. In support of obtaining the Requisite Company Vote, and concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement on November 22, 2015, Oak Hill Capital Partners III, L.P., Oak Hill Capital Management Partners III, L.P. (together with Oak Hill Capital Partners III, L.P., the “Oak Hill Investors”) and CBF entered into a letter agreement (the “Support Agreement”), pursuant to which the Oak Hill Investors agreed to vote two-thirds of the shares of Issuer Common Stock beneficially owned by them (the “Investor Shares”) and entitled to vote at the Company Meeting (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (less any shares in excess of one-third of the Investor Shares that may have been sold by the Oak Hill Investors in compliance with the Support Agreement) (i) in favor of approval of the Merger Agreement and any other matter required to be approved by the shareholders of the Issuer to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (ii) against any proposal made in opposition to approval of the Merger Agreement and any alternative acquisition proposals and (iii) in favor of any postponement, recess or adjournment at any meeting of the shareholders of the Issuer relating to any of the matters set forth in the clauses (i) or (ii) if the Issuer has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares necessary to obtain the Requisite Company Vote. The obligation of the Oak Hill Investors to vote the Investor Shares in favor of approval of the Merger Agreement and against alternative transactions will terminate and be of no further force or effect if the Merger Agreement shall have been amended or modified to reduce the amount of merger consideration or cause the receipt of the merger consideration to be taxable to the holders of Issuer Common Stock without the Oak Hill Investors’ written consent.

 

Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Oak Hill Investors agreed not to offer, sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares of CBF common stock owned directly or beneficially by the Oak Hill Investors (the “Post-Closing Lockup Restrictions”) for a period of three months following the effective time of the merger. During the period between the three-month anniversary and the six-month anniversary of the effective time of the Merger, the Oak Hill Investors will be subject to the Post-Closing Lockup Restrictions with respect to 50% of the shares of CBF common stock owned directly or beneficially by the Oak Hill Investors as of November 22, 2015. The Post-Closing Lockup Restrictions preclude the Oak Hill Investors and their controlled affiliates from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to result in a disposition of shares of CBF common stock, even if such shares of CBF common stock would be disposed of by someone other than the Oak Hill Investors. In addition, prior to November 22, 2016, the Oak Hill Investors agreed not to offer, sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of the Investor Shares or enter into any other voting arrangement with respect to the Investor Shares.

 

 

 

 

The Support Agreement provides that for so long as the Oak Hill Investors continue to beneficially own at least 75% of the shares of CBF common stock that the Oak Hill Investors received pursuant to the Merger (or, to the extent the Oak Hill Investors sell Investor Shares after November 22, 2016 but before the effective time of the Merger, would have received pursuant to the Merger had such sales not occurred) (provided that the Oak Hill Investors elected to receive at least 85% of their consideration for the Merger in the form of Stock Consideration), then at any meeting of CBF stockholders at which directors of CBF are to be elected, CBF shall nominate for election to its Board of Directors one person designated by the Oak Hill Investors (the “Oak Hill Designee”). CBF and the Oak Hill Investors agreed that Scott B. Kauffman will be the initial Oak Hill Designee and appointed to the Board of Directors of CBF as of the effective time of the Merger.

 

Under the Support Agreement, CBF agreed to prepare and file, upon written request from the Oak Hill Investors at any time following the two-year anniversary of the effective time of the Merger, a shelf registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) relating to the offer and sale of CBF common stock promptly (and in any event no more than fifteen (15) days) after receiving such a request. CBF further agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement effective for so long as the Oak Hill Investors own shares of CBF common stock that cannot be sold without registration without regard to volume limitations set forth in Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 and to provide other customary assistance to consummate the sale of the Oak Hill Investors’ shares of CBF common stock under such Shelf Registration Statement.

 

Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Investment Agreement, dated April 26, 2011, by and between FNB United Corp. and the Oak Hill Investors (as amended, the “Investment Agreement”) will terminate as of the Effective Time, except that any indemnification obligations arising under the Investment Agreement with respect to the period prior to the effective time of the Merger will survive such termination.

 

The foregoing summary of the Support Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Support Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 99.7 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.    Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
