Other Events.
On September 27, 2019, JMP Group LLC (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that its wholly owned subsidiary, JMP Group Inc. (the "Issuer"), caused notices to be issued to the holders of its 8.00% Senior Notes due 2023 (CUSIP No. 46629U 206; NYSE: JMPB) (the "Notes") regarding the Issuer's exercise of its option to redeem all of the issued and outstanding Notes pursuant to the terms of the Indenture for the Notes dated as of January 24, 2013, between the Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of January 25, 2013, and the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of October 14, 2014 (as so supplemented, the "Indenture"). The Issuer will redeem all $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes on October 28, 2019 (the "Redemption Date"). The Notes will be redeemed at 100% of their principal amount ($25 per Note), plus the accrued and unpaid interest thereon from October 15, 2019, through, but excluding, the Redemption Date. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, on September 27, 2019, the Company irrevocably deposited a portion of the net proceeds from its offering of 6.875% Senior Notes due 2029, which closed on September 26, 2019, with the trustee under the Indenture in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge all obligations with respect to the Notes not previously delivered to the trustee for cancellation, including the redemption price of and accrued interest on the Notes to be redeemed on the Redemption Date. As a result, the Indenture with respect to the Notes was satisfied and discharged in accordance with its terms, and the Issuer and the guarantors party to the Indenture have been released from their obligations under the Indenture with respect to the Notes. A copy of the press release announcing the redemption of all of the Notes and the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
