STOCK AND COMMON STOCK WARRANTS

10. STOCK AND COMMON STOCK WARRANTS

In August 2010, we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,370,000 shares of common stock. The offering was priced at $36.50 per share, a slight premium to the prior day’s closing price, and raised $47.1 million net of $2.9 million of costs.

On September 24, 2009 we completed a private placement of stock to Peninsula Investment Partners, L.P. (Peninsula), pursuant to which we issued and sold 862,069 shares of common stock for a total purchase price of $25.0 million, and a 10-year warrant to purchase 129,310 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $29.00 per share. The warrant is immediately exercisable. During 2011 all shares were distributed on a pro-rata basis to the fund holders of Peninsula with the warrants being transferred to Peninsula’s managing partner.

Total proceeds of $25.0 million were allocated, based on the relative fair value of common stock and common stock warrants, to common stock for $23.5 million and common stock warrants for $1.5 million on September 24, 2009.

On January 23, 2009, we entered into a purchase agreement with the U.S. Treasury (“Treasury”) pursuant to which we issued and sold 52,625 shares of our fixed-rate cumulative perpetual preferred stock for a total purchase price of $52.6 million, and a 10-year warrant to purchase 175,105 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $45.08 per share. On March 28, 2012, the Treasury held a public auction where it sold all 52,625 shares, which represented the Treasury’s entire preferred stock holding in WSFS. Under the terms of the agreement, WSFS will continue to pay a five percent dividend annually for each of the first five years of the investment and a nine percent dividend thereafter until the shares are redeemed. The cumulative dividend for the preferred stock is accrued for and payable on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year. We have declared and paid $2.0 million of cash dividends on the preferred stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Total proceeds of $52.6 million were allocated, based on the relative fair value of the preferred stock and common stock warrants, to preferred stock for $51.9 million and common stock warrants for $693,000 respectively, on January 23, 2009. The preferred stock discount is being accreted, on an effective yield method, over five years. We have accreted $104,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012 there was approximately $185,000 of discount on preferred stock remaining.

On September 12, 2012 we entered into a letter agreement with the U.S. Treasury pursuant to which the Company repurchased the warrant for $1.8 million.
