The discount is based upon the date of repayment and the option to purchase lasts for a one-year period.

We believe this opportunity will enhance shareholder value by improving our cost of capital, simplifying our capital structure and transferring $23 million of equity value to our common shareholders, representing approximately $1 per share. In addition, the redemption of our Series 2 Preferred Stock at a 50%+ discount will be highly accretive to earnings and will contribute approximately $4 million to annual operating income,” said Russ Heiser.
