On March 17, 2010, Starr International entered into the final agreement for the VPF Transaction for up to 10,000,000 shares (the “Base Amount”) of Common Stock pursuant to four stock purchase agreements, each with respect to 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock, by and between Starr International and UBS Securities LLC (“UBS”) and four pledge agreements, each with respect to 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock, among Starr International, UBS and UBS AG, Stamford Branch, as collateral agent, each dated as of March 15, 2010 (collectively, the “VPF Contracts”). The final terms of the VPF Transaction, including the Base Amount of shares deliverable by Starr International upon settlement, were determined in unsolicited brokerage transactions by UBS (or its affiliate), over a specified execution period beginning on March 15, 2010, in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s interpretative letter to Goldman, Sachs & Co., dated December 20, 1999. Starr International will receive aggregate proceeds of $278,150,032.61 under the VPF Transaction.
The VPF Transaction provides that on the third Business Day (as defined in the VPF Contracts) after each of the 34.5-month, 35.5-month, 36.5-month and 37.5-month anniversaries of March 17, 2010 (the “Settlement Dates”), Starr International will deliver a number of shares of Common Stock to UBS (or, at the election of Starr International, the cash equivalent of such shares) equal to the product of one-quarter of the Base Amount and a ratio (the “Settlement Ratio”) determined as follows: (a) if the daily volume weighted average price per share of the Common Stock over the 5 Business Day period ending on, and including, the date three Business Days before the corresponding Settlement Date (the “Settlement Price”) is less than or equal to $31.2216 (the “Floor Level”), the Settlement Ratio shall be 1; (b) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Floor Level but less than or equal to $46.8324 per share (the “Cap Level”), the Settlement Ratio shall be the Floor Level divided by the Settlement Price; and (c) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Cap Level, the Settlement Ratio shall be the quotient of (i) the sum of the Floor Level and the excess of the Settlement Price over the Cap Level, divided by (ii) the Settlement Price.
