Eagle Bancorp Extends Exchange Offer for Senior Notes
Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: EGBN), based in Bethesda, Maryland, has announced an important update affecting its 10.00% Senior Notes due 2029. This announcement comes with news of an extension to their previously announced exchange offer, which now allows for a longer window for holders of the notes to participate.
Details of the Exchange Offer Extension
The expiration date for this exchange offer has been shifted to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January 14, 2025. This extension aims to provide additional time for noteholders to consider the benefits of exchanging their unregistered notes for those that will be registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
Understanding the Exchange Process
Original Notes that are to be exchanged must be tendered validly and not withdrawn before this new Expiration Date. Following this date, Eagle expects that the settlement for those exchanges will take place on January 16, 2025. It’s important to state that all other terms of the exchange offer, apart from the new expiration date, will remain consistent with what was previously communicated.
Current Participation Statistics
As of the previous deadline — the Original Expiration Date — a significant aggregate principal amount of Original Notes has already been tendered for the exchange. These include:
- CUSIP Numbers: 268948 AC0 (Rule 144A), 268948 AD8 (Accredited Investor)

- Principal Amount Outstanding: $72,500,000, with $5,165,000 validated for exchange
- Validly Tendered: $1,000,000
These figures indicate strong engagement from existing noteholders, with 100% of one tranche validated and nearly 20% of another segment participating as of the Original Expiration Date.

The Exchange Notes being offered have identical terms to the Original Notes but will not carry the same transfer restrictions. This should make them a more appealing option for investors.
