On August 30, 2022, SuRo Capital Corp. (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Press Release”) reminding its stockholders that its modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer (the “Tender Offer”), which commenced on August 8, 2022, remains scheduled to expire on September 2, 2022. The Company launched the Tender Offer to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a price per share not less than $6.00 and not greater than $7.00 in $0.10 increments, using available cash. The Press Release contains no information which changes, materially or otherwise, the information the Company included in its tender offer statement on Schedule TO, or any of the exhibits thereto, which the Company filed with the SEC on August 8, 2022.
The tender offer described in this Current Report on Form 8-K commenced on August 8, 2022; however, this Current Report on Form 8-K is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell any shares of the common stock of the Company or any other securities. On the commencement date of the tender offer, the Company filed a tender offer statement on Schedule TO, including an offer to purchase, a letter of transmittal and related documents, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The offer to purchase shares of common stock of the Company is only being made pursuant to the offer to purchase, the letter of transmittal and related documents filed with such Schedule TO. Stockholders are urged to read the tender offer statement (including the offer to purchase, the related letter of transmittal and the other offer documents), as they may be amended from time to time, because they contain important information that should be read carefully before making any decision with respect to the tender offer. Stockholders may obtain a free copy of these statements at the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov or by directing such requests to the information agent for the tender offer, D.F. King, Inc., at suro@dfking.com. Banks and brokers may call the information agent at (212) 269-5550, and all others may call the information agent toll-free at (800) 769-4414.
Furnished as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference is a copy of the press release related to the tender offer.
| Item 9.01. | Financial Statements and Exhibits. |
* The press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 is “furnished” and not “filed,” as described in Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
