| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On February 4, 2021, Triumph Group, Inc. (the “Company”) implemented a new “at the market” program by entering into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (the “Manager”). Under the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company may from time to time to or through the Manager, acting as agent and/or principal, offer and sell shares of its common stock (the “Shares”), par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) having a gross sales price of up to $150,000,000. If the Company sells Shares to the Manager as principal, the Company will enter into a separate terms agreement with the Manager.
Sales of the Shares, if any, may be made in any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including by sales made directly on or through the New York Stock Exchange, the existing trading market for the Company’s Common Stock. Under the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Manager (at the Company’s election) will use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, to sell the Shares as directed by the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Equity Distribution Agreement. The compensation payable to the Manager for sales of Shares pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement will be up to 2.75% of the gross sales price for any Shares sold through it as sales agent under the Equity Distribution Agreement.
Shares sold under the Equity Distribution Agreement, if any, will be issued pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333- 251429) (the “Registration Statement”) that was automatically effective upon filing on December 17, 2020, including the prospectus, dated December 17, 2020, and the prospectus supplement, dated February 4, 2021, as the same may be amended or supplemented.
The offering of Shares pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (1) the sale of all Common Stock subject to the Equity Distribution Agreement, (2) the termination of the Equity Distribution Agreement by the Company or by the Manager or (3) February 4, 2022.
This description of the Equity Distribution Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Equity Distribution Agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
