On October 6, 2016, Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Company and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Barclays Capital Inc., as representatives of the underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), and Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc., in its capacity as qualified independent underwriter, relating to the offer, issuance and sale by the Company of $350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 2.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 plus up to an additional $52,500,000 aggregate principal amount of notes if the Underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional notes solely to cover over-allotments (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”), in an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”). The Convertible Notes were registered under a registration statement (No. 333-210615) on Form S-3, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on April 5, 2016.

 

In the ordinary course of business, certain of Underwriters and their related entities have provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking and commercial banking or other financial services to the Company for which they have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation and expense reimbursement. Affiliates of certain of the underwriters act as lenders in connection with the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ credit facilities. Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc. is an affiliate of the Company’s external manager.

 

The Company expects that the Offering will be completed on or about October 13, 2016, subject to customary closing conditions.
